Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

C2430 Xiang Ying's Last Counterattack

When the topic came to this point, it was not only about the assassination case. Xiao Letian had expended so much effort just to remind Xiang Ying that his militarism was just a dream.

"Why did you exterminate the Qing Dynasty?" Xiao Letian asked painfully: "Are you all doing this for the good of us Chinese, for the good of China's national destiny that spans a hundred years, or just to vent our hatred?"

"I think the latter is more likely to be the reason!"

Xiao Letian looked at Xiang Ying regretfully: "You are one of the disciples that I have high hopes for. I have taught you a private lesson more than once, you should be able to understand what I am thinking about …"

"No one can guarantee that their decision will allow a people to live in peace for long. I can't do it, nor can the saints in history. All I can do is to let peace and prosperity linger for a little longer …"

"Even if the Chinese can overthrow the Qing Dynasty, they will still have to understand that sooner or later, the Chinese will fall. Maybe a hundred years later, maybe two hundred years later, but no matter what, there will always be a decline in times of joy. This is just the law of nature! "

"I'm not interested in the fact that the Chinese will live for a few hundred years. What I'm interested in is what value can the Chinese leave behind for the history of mankind in the process of their rise, prosperity, and decline!"

"There is no eternal empire, but there is eternal thought! ancient Greece and Rome have perished, but the spirit of ancient Greece and Rome will always be there! "

"The Qin and Han Dynasties have already left us far away, Sui Tang and Xiongfeng have already vanished into the river of history, the scholars of Song Dynasty were still chanting in their melody, but the descendants of the Zhao Family have long forgotten the glory of their ancestor!"

"But these extinct dynasties will forever live in the memories of our Chinese civilization. Everything that they have experienced has nourished our spirit up till now!"

"Just what kind of image do the Chinese want to show in the long history of China? After a thousand years, what kind of words would the descendants use when they recall what we did?"

"Do you and I deserve the admiration of others or are you always scolding me?"

"Xiang Ying, tell me, what exactly can you do? Are you a nation that can increase the future of the Chinese? Or can it make our Chinese people shine in their memories? "

"Hehe, just hatred! What else can you gain from your actions other than letting the other races do their best to fight you? I am afraid that even though our Chinese people have lived for three hundred years in Golden Age, we will still lose half of our profits from your wanton killing! "

"As for the future generations' reputation, there's no need to think about it. It's likely that the descendants of a thousand years later would all sigh and shake their heads at the mention of our Chinese race! What could a regime that only knew how to commit genocide offer to human civilization? "It's just a pile of chicken feathers …"

"Haha, of course, you also have your own historical achievements! "Oh, bad example, let future generations know that you shouldn't learn from the Chinese. The slaughter of the Chinese people is destined to fail, and by providing bad example to future generations, you are destined to live!"

"Why are you trembling? Why is your face so pale?" Are you afraid? Where was your arrogance just now? Go on and kill Zai Chun, kill all the Manchu in the world, how capable are you! "

"Your greatest sin is to instill this kind of bloody thought of slaughter into the army. When you turn around, you still want to use this thought of yours to kidnap me! You must be extremely ambitious! "

"No …" I... "I'm not …" Under Xiao Letian's fierce words, he did not have the power to retaliate at all. It was only now that he understood that she thought she had learnt eighty percent of her master's abilities.

However, after they had truly fought, he finally understood that his master's thoughts were like the abyss in the Pacific Ocean, far from something that he was able to fathom!

"Shi …" Master... Are you exaggerating a bit … I... We've also deduced the reaction of the other races, but it's not as pessimistic as you said! "

Xiang Ying, who had gathered all his courage, wanted to refute his saying, "You have always said that Manchu was allied with the Mongol race, the Tibetan race, and the minority from the Western Regions. They are all working together to squeeze out the oil from the Central Plains …"

"But we don't think so. Throughout the history of the Qing Dynasty, there have been endless battles between them and the frontier! You said that the Mongolian and the Manchu are in an alliance, then is Gerdan the Mongolian? What happened to the war in Kang Xi's era? "

"So the hidden grounds must have a good relationship with the Manchu? The big Xiao Jin Chuan is a Tibetan, in the year of dryad, Fu Kang An had fought all the way to the top of the plateau! "

"And what does the current rebellion of the pars dorsalis s and the invasion of the Central Asia s into the Western Regions mean? This means that the Manchu does not rule over these non-humankind alike, they also have their own contradictions! "

"As long as we can separate them, as long as we can gather more, support our own spokesmen, and eliminate those thorns, I don't believe that we, the Chinese people, can't rule over this land of more than 1000 kilometers!"

"Is that what you mean? Is that why you finally tried to convince me? You... You disappoint me! " Xiao Letian's expression was extremely pained.

The clock on his pocket watch was already close to midnight, but there was still no conclusion to the argument in the study room. Xiang Ying's stubbornness was beyond imagination.

"Xiang Ying... So you still don't really understand the root of the war? I am so regretful! "

"Let me ask you this, why do the foreign races of the Central Plains always have to fight against the Central Plains in the long history? Why do they never stop with their knives? "

"Why would Britain risk a war with the Qing? And why is that? "

"It's the economy, my child. All of the contradictions behind this are economic operations and the flow of money!"

"Why did the northern nomadic peoples wage war against the Chinese for thousands of years? That's because their economy is abnormally fragile, and without the circulation of goods from the Central Plains, they won't be able to survive! "

"The Chinese might only need their meat, furs, and herbs, as well as other agricultural and side products. However, these nomadic peoples s need everything that the whole Chinese economy can produce!"

"Without iron, salt, tea bricks and cheap textiles, how do you want the nomadic peoples to survive? This in itself is a serious trade deficit, this is a tragic situation where the Han people are able to survive and have their lifeline pinched! "

"The Han people can not eat their meat, nor wear their fur clothes, nor use the products of the nomadic peoples. The Han people can also live a good life, but can the nomadic peoples get rid of the Central Plains' products?"

"No way! If he escaped, he would die! is to perish! "

"Didn't the Central Plains rely on the trade embargo to control the size of the northern nomadic peoples back in the Ming Dynasty? In the end, they forced the Mongolian to go south to plunder. You could say that these were all barbarians, but from their perspective, in order to survive, they had no choice! "

"Even if the borders were to be completely opened, allowing the Chinese caravans to trade with the prairie without restriction, the result would not be that good because the prairie needs too many commodities from the Central Plains and the Central Plains need too few commodities from the prairie!"

"This result can only mean that the precious metal coins on the prairie continue to flow out, becoming less.

"Bartering? But what do they have that is worthy of the eyes of the people of the Central Plains? "
