Since the Accounting: A Chronicle of the Roman Khanate

Chapter 351

Finally, it needs to be pointed out that the end of the monarchy in the entire Seris world was not even in the Qing Dynasty, but in the Puppet Manchukuo.

In fact, this is another attempt to use more "outside" external forces after the internal reactionary forces, including the frontier ethnic groups, have been unable to support them.From this perspective, Pu Yi's choice is quite accurate.However, the Japanese are not as good as Rouran in terms of political management, and in the end it was just an embarrassing farce.

The result of persisting in reaction to the end is to completely smash the signboard of the monarchy and the last dynasty.Even after the Cold War, there were royalists in many countries around the world, but it was rare to find a second one with such a bad reputation.

After abandoning the monarchy, a lot of previous problems were solved.

There is no taboo of "cannot claim to have overthrown the brutal ruler", but it makes propaganda a lot easier.In Yongzheng's thinking, the part of "the Huayi family" and the legal narrative of "the virtuous live in it" can be used directly.Many theories used by later generations to construct the "Chinese nation" can be traced back to this place.Yongzheng himself probably could not have imagined that the "complete body" of this theory was used in conjunction with the liberation narrative after several improvements in modern times.

And these are obviously too beyond the scope of Yongzheng's ability at that time-not only can he not control the virtues of his descendants, but he can't even take care of his ancestors.Because Yongzheng himself knew that the people like Dorgon were really wicked...

After a round of calculations like this, who and what can be referred to in the current state can be completely determined.

First of all, we must continue to cut with other European countries.This is what the Purple Horde must do.But the good thing is that this is already being done, and it doesn't work if you don't do it...

Showing that it was different from other barbarian states was fundamental to Rome.Give up this point, and the banner of Rome will lose its meaning.Therefore, the Purple Horde Khanate has never shy away from its own experience of starting a business. It does not think that it is the same as the European nobles, obtaining territories through marriage and inheritance, but bluntly saying that it wants to regain the homeland of Rome.

This is actually a very hateful behavior, and it is easy to be targeted by everyone, which is worse than Li Zicheng.But the Purple Horde Khanate is already being targeted by everyone, so it doesn't matter...

Of course, one of the benefits here is that the Europeans are not united with each other, nor can they unite with the captors and suppress the invaders.On the contrary, countries like France have always hoped to partner with the Purple Horde to besiege Shinra.

With this kind of confidence to shout "I am different from you", you don't have to worry about the fragmented "legal system" and inheritance rights in various territories, and you can build a new narrative in a unified way.Of course, this will make all the land nobles feel dissatisfied, but it's still the same sentence, as long as they can beat them, this is not a problem.

Secondly, they can directly regard their behavior of being kind to Roman civilians as part of the construction of legitimacy and publicize it.In Guo Kang's view, this is a very powerful argument.

In fact, hanging people and punishing crimes was also a common reason for war in ancient times. It is not that in modern times, some people suddenly have the idea of ​​​​"liberating the world".Defeating the ignorant and backward European lords and liberating the serfs from the manors is worthy of great praise from both the church and the Confucian point of view.

In the past, in order to win the support of as many people as possible and deal with powerful enemies, Khan Ting has been consciously or unconsciously guaranteeing the rights of citizens, so as to stimulate the morale and determination of soldiers.

For a long time, the territory of the Khanate was a long strip along the coast of the Black Sea, lacking sufficient depth, so there was almost no "safe internal area".In order to protect their acquired property and status, people everywhere have to fight, and this atmosphere has become one of the sources of the army's combat effectiveness.

It's just that before, the Purple Horde Khan Court may have been limited by its level, and it has never formed a systematic theory, and it has not actively promoted its use.

But in fact, this theory has great potential, especially in Europe now.After all, the surrounding barbarian countries are too outrageous.The kind of army that slaughtered the city and could kill himself, Dorgon had to call it too barbaric when he saw it...

The Purple Horde doesn't need to become the king's teacher immediately, as long as they pay a little attention and form an advantage over them, there will be no problem.

And these are also related to combat effectiveness.When the Western Han Dynasty operated the Western Regions, Chen Tang's soldiers were ordered not to plunder, so after the siege, they did not plunder and destroy.You must know that the army of the Han Dynasty in the Western Regions was not too high-quality, and there were even many professional adventurers who joined the army purely for money, or even borrowed money.But they can still do it.This kind of discipline of order and prohibition is the basic guarantee of combat effectiveness.

In Guo Kang's view, at least this level must be achieved in order to be regarded as a "regular army".

Therefore, hanging civilians and punishing crimes is not only an excuse for foreign wars, but also a theoretical basis for improving legitimacy, and it is also a measure that is beneficial to the combat effectiveness of the army.There are too many things that can be said in this regard, and it didn't take long for Guo Kang to come up with a good wording.

With the support of these two additional theories, the concept of "Roman nation" can be promoted openly.This is actually an overt conspiracy, even if it is said directly, the enemy has nothing to do.Because the flag of Rome is truly universal and appealing.

In the culture of the Mediterranean world, Rome is similar to the "tianxia" of the Central Plains people, and it is a concept that is almost equal to the known world.This conceptual Rome has strong compatibility.

Although there were only loose Romans in the past, there was no Roman nation with a cultural core, which made the empire very unstable.However, through the transformation of the Central Plains, it is not too difficult to make up for this shortcoming and create a universal nation similar to the Chinese people.

And if one day, the current Khan court cannot punish the people, it can also be updated by activating the periodic law-for a civilization, the periodic law is obviously a good thing, which means that it can finally complete a whole The life cycle of the wheel can be "self-sustaining".

Compared with the regime of the Purple Horde Khanate, Guo Kang actually values ​​the entire civilization more.His preparations will become the theoretical basis for opposing tyrants and barbarians at the same time—in short, he is going to pave the way for everyone in advance of what Li Zicheng lacks.

As for how to construct a legal narrative beyond the geographical scope in Europe, there is actually a more successful example, which is the Red Horde Khanate of later generations.

Although the country's national status is less than one yuan, many theoretical breakthroughs brought about are still very practical in Europe.
