Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

C3968 in the Flag Man

Not all Manchu were useless or arrogant, the real top-level elites were actually all very smart. Of course, they couldn't be smart, as they had been taught a genuine education in the Monarch since they were young. This was something they didn't dare to tell the truth to the people, but they had to learn from him ever since they were young!

His words, teachings and the influence of history made Yi Xuan and the rest very clear on the background of their Manchu!

The establishment of the Qing Dynasty was a fortuitous occurrence, it was unimaginable for the Manchu to be able to stay in the central origin and rule for so long!

In the beginning, when they first entered the, most of them were actually just thinking of snatching one vote before leaving. This was because in history, there was only a small number of Ethnic Group s that had established a unified government, and that was only in the Yuan Dynasty!

But how could the Manchu compare to the Yuan Dynasty's Ancestral Mongolian?

Before the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongolia had already swept through Eurasia. As the Southern Song was struggling to hold on, the Europe was also conquered by the whip of the Mongolian!

Such a huge Empire, the central origin who finally united the Chinese civilization, finally retreated back to the Mo Bei in just 98 years!

When the Manchu first entered the trial, they competed left and right. They knew that their families could not compare with the Mongolian's when they defeated the Southern Song Dynasty!

Even in the Yuan Dynasty, with less than a hundred years, why would they expect Manchu to take more than a hundred years? Come on, let's not be arrogant. Let's just snatch a vote and leave. We can snatch as many years as we want!

It was this kind of subconscious extreme lack of confidence that caused Manchu to still be unwilling to abolish the military system called the Eight Flag even after calming the world down. He was even unwilling to make reforms!

The eight flags were not allowed to be produced, they were raised using Flag Rating s, and then all of them would undergo military training, maintaining the unique characteristics of the eight flags' military alliance!

This kind of stubbornness was actually the external embodiment of this kind of latent mentality. They refused to let their people completely assimilate into the Chinese life, they were afraid that the Manchu would be assimilated completely!

Furthermore, they had to ensure the quantity of their Ethnic Group s' combat power. If a person like Zhu Yuanzhang appeared amongst the Chinese, they would have at least one military force that they could rely on!

Even if they couldn't beat him, they would still be able to run! Bring this huge Eight Flag Military groups and return to outside! With the mountains and rivers as the base, he continued to diligently manage them!

This was a strategy that spanned over two hundred years. Even though many Monarch had wanted to reform this system for the past two hundred years, they had become invalid due to the strong pressure from the inside!

The Manchu himself never thought that the xx would grow so long, to the point that the entire descendants of the Eight Banners were turned into silkpants!

In the three dynasties of Kang Yong, including the rest of the Kaiser, whenever disciples of the Flag Man were mentioned, their popinjays would get so angry that their teeth would start to itch, wishing they could kill them one by one!

However, no matter how angry he was, there was nothing he could do about it in the end!

This was because the Eight Banner System was the fundamental national policy of the entire Great Qing Empire. Not only was it the foundation for establishment, it was also the last safe zone like a Noah's Ark plan!

All the previous generations of Kaiser knew of these various shortcomings, but in the end, they still could not make any changes!

By the time they reached Tongzhi Dynasty, the system had already become a poisonous tumor. How could a poisonous tumor like this produce the flower of industry and civilization?

What Yi Xuan was crying was not wrong, he was crying for the future of Manchu!

"Before we entered, we were the Barbarian's barbarians as the Chinese call us … Actually, they weren't wrong. We don't know anything at all! "He can't farm, he can't mine, he can't refine iron, he can't make weapons or tools …"

"90% of our daily necessities are created by the Chinese people! This construction is not something that our Manchu is good at! "

"And the Chinese? Just by fighting the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period, he already possessed an extremely high level of skill … My Prince Mansion also has a collection of bronze artifacts from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties! "

"That kind of complex craftsmanship, that kind of ingenious method... How is that something we can master? I've already done better than us thousands of years ago! "

"If it's not Innate, we won't be able to make up for it the day after tomorrow! After entering the, Flag Man was not allowed to learn Chinese life, nor were they allowed to learn skills and trade! "

"The goal is for us eight flags to always have combat power s! But in the past 200 years, we have never learned anything about building with the Chinese! "

"The ancestor brought out these ancestor s, and they all play with the birds cages created by drawing, coiling walnuts, and golden silk in the snuff bottle … All kinds of stuff are experts in this field, many of them are fine products made by hand! "

"But do you really want him to work on the economy and construction like the Chinese? "They're all dumbfounded, they don't even know how to …"

Wu wu wu … Yi Xuan covered his face with his hands, "We can't do it now, we've wasted another two hundred years the day after tomorrow …" Our Flag Man does not understand construction at all! "

"The Your Majesty wants to industrialize their country... In the end, we still have to rely on the Chinese. Our Flag Man can't do it! They don't even know how to do it! "

"The Chinese are becoming more and more important. Once they are industrialized, they will have more rights to control!"

"Wuwuwu …" Ceng Guofan, Zuo Jigao, Li Hongzhang and the rest of the warlord are already at the end of their tether.

"ancestor! Was the country really going to fall? Do you really not want my Daqing to be fortified forever? "

In the midst of his wailing, Fifth Master Yi Cong lay on the chair with a pale face, as if she had pulled some bones from her body. This is the Daqing that was destroyed by the heavens! "

In the thick layer of fog surrounding history, even the people involved could not see the truth!

Why does the Manchu want to lock down the whole country? Why are they so opposed to the Western Civilization? This problem was too big and there were many reasons for it!

But the point that Yi Xuan mentioned was indeed a very important reason!

Because the Manchu himself was very clear that once the gate to industrialization was opened, then all that would happen later on would not be something that his Manchu could get involved in!

There might be a small number of elites within the Flag Man that would be able to make a name for themselves, but more than 90% of the elites within the Flag Man did not have such abilities!

They could only allow the Chinese, the world's most proficient and hardworking Ethnic Group, to control the construction of the entire industrial system!

As long as the Han Chinese interfered with this, the enormous power of the industrial civilization would be controlled by the Han Chinese!

Too terrifying! Han Chinese who were armed with weapons by the industrial civilization were not easy to deal with!

The lower the value of the Force of the Han Chinese, the more thousands of heavy machine gun, Artillery, airship, and more could be used to make up for it!

At that time, the end of the Manchu would come!

This kind of potential threat was what they opposed. It was the fundamental consideration!

"Fifth Brother... Now that Zai Chun has been brainwashed by the Chinese goblin, he can see the good side of the industry, but not the terrifying side! "

"All we brothers need to do is to give our Manchu's mountains and rivers an additional safety lock!"

"A little Zai Chun is playing too excessively, once he harms the foundation of our Daqing! We have to get out of this! "
