Chapter 292 All races return to Han, establish subjectivity, and be loyal!

Murong Fu naturally stated that he was the best man in the world, and as long as the Liao royal family cooperated well, he would not kill people indiscriminately.

After all, he did not kill all the royal family members of the Song Dynasty. He only killed a few guilty ones to set an example.

Zhao Ji was even given the title of King of Song, which was a royal title.

At most, he just humiliated the Queen of the Song Dynasty and awarded the princesses of the Song Dynasty to his meritorious officials.

The Zhao family themselves didn't say anything about this matter and accepted it with pleasure.

Since the Zhao family is like this, the Liu family naturally won't kill them all.

However, Murong Fu added in his mind: Overseas places are so big, the people should be exiled. If King Song goes to Australia to see kangaroos, why not arrange for the Liu family to go to the South American rain forest to face cougars?
However, Xiao Guanyin and others remembered the treatment they had received from the Song Dynasty royal family, and they felt relieved and hurriedly expressed their gratitude.

Although there are rumors that Emperor Hongwu Murong Fu was related to Xiao Zhouhou, in order to avenge Xiao Zhouhou, he followed the example of Emperor Taizong of Song and insulted Xiao Meng of the Song Dynasty, and supplied a large amount of facial cleanser to the descendant of Mencius.

However, since the country has already been destroyed, it is normal to be toyed with by others.

At least she was not thrown into the army to be a camp prostitute, nor was she thrown into the church to openly receive customers. This is already quite humane.

Xiao Guanyin even considered whether she should try to please Murong Fu by giving her other unmarried daughter to Murong Fu and whispering something in his ear.

However, she never imagined that she, the empress dowager of the fallen Liao Dynasty, still had charm.

Murong Fu then led everyone into Shangjing City, talking and laughing.

The Ming army had experience in this and quickly sealed off the treasury, collected archival materials, and recruited surrenders and traitors.

With Yelu Yixin, the former de facto prime minister of the Liao Dynasty, leading the way, everything went as smoothly as possible.

The Ming army did not kill or harass the civilians, which made Xiao Feng feel relieved and felt that he was right to surrender.

Murong Fu was indeed kind and righteous, a benevolent monarch.

Little did he know that Murong Fu was actually extremely hypocritical.

In his eyes, the territory of Liao was one of the core areas of China and the basic base for the future rule of the Ming Dynasty. Naturally, it had to be treated well and no killing should be done indiscriminately.

The Tang Dynasty made a mess of Hebei at that time. It also killed Dou Jiande, who was deeply loved by the people of Hebei. It also sucked blood from Hebei for a long time, causing Hebei to be disunited and laid the groundwork for the subsequent Anshi Rebellion.

This taught Murong Fu a lesson, that is, he should treat any area under his rule equally and as his own people.

China is one, China is one; this is the established policy.

The example of the barbarians outside China is the Li Dynasty of Jiaozhi, which was a model for cruel killings and violent suppression with no mercy.

The Ming Dynasty should treat its people as warmly as the spring breeze, allowing them to bathe in the sunshine of Emperor Murong the Great.

When dealing with foreign barbarians, one must be as cruel and ruthless as the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

A nation is an imagined community, and to shape this community requires a common culture, common historical memory, and mutual intermarriage and integration.

The most important thing is to create an external enemy.

Therefore, what Murong Fu established was a system that took the Han people as the main body of the nation and opposed them to foreign barbarians.

It is necessary to emphasize the barbarity, backwardness and cruelty of foreign races.

We must emphasize China's superiority, advancement, and level of civilization.

Only in this way can you be successful for thousands of years.

The prosperity of Shangjing is naturally far less than that of Bianliang.

After the war, the scene became even more desolate.

But this was after all a place where the Liao Dynasty’s dignitaries gathered, so it was built quite luxuriously, and the imperial palace was not much inferior to Tokyo.

No matter how hard the life is, we cannot make our leaders suffer; no matter how poor the life is, we cannot make the emperor poor.

Murong Fu came to the palace, sat on the throne of the Liao emperor, and accepted the surrender of the Khitan and Han officials of the Liao Dynasty.

The Liao Dynasty was doomed, so these officials were naturally opportunists and immediately expressed their loyalty to Emperor Murong.

Murong Fu called Xiao Feng and Wang Jingzhong to his side. These two were the current representatives of the Khitan and Jurchen. If he wanted to control the north, he had to control the Khitan and Jurchen.

"The battle of Shangjing was very tragic. Many brave soldiers died, many women lost their husbands, and many children lost their fathers. This is a tragedy." Murong Fu's speech was very profound. "War itself is a great tragedy."

Wang Jingzhong had a blank expression on his face. He had fought his way out of a sea of ​​swords and guns, and was the type of person who was "happy when hearing about war."

He is a bit like Grom Hellscream in Azeroth next door. He believes that war brings vitality to the world. He fights all his life, and war is the whole meaning of his life. He cannot develop any anti-war thoughts.

Unless there is a tragic defeat, but then there is a high probability that we will be against the defeat, not against the war.

Xiao Feng was moved.

Although Xiao Feng is a natural god of war, he is also a pacifist and does not like war. This is why he stopped Yelu Hongji from going south and committed suicide in the original novel.

This war that lasted for nearly a year made Xiao Feng feel that war was so cruel and so unfortunate for the people. Deep down in his heart, he wanted to end the war, but unfortunately he did not have the ability to do so.

Now, Murong Fu's words touched Xiao Feng's heart. "Your Majesty, war is not good for the people of the Song Dynasty, the Khitan people, or the Jurchen people. The world is so big, and each ethnic group should live in peace. If they always fight each other, nothing will be left except hatred." Xiao Feng said, "If you kill me today and I kill you tomorrow, what's the point?"

Murong Fu smiled and said, "Your thinking is very profound. You and I were both martial artists. It was only by chance that we entered politics. I became the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and you became the son-in-law of the Liao Kingdom, the King of the Southern Court. But our original identities were knights. What is a great knight? The greatest knights serve their country and their people. And those who seek peace for the people are the real knights, the greatest of the great knights."

"Do you know who the first hero in history was?"

Xiao Feng was thoughtful, savoring the words of the greatest hero. He felt that this was the essence of a hero. He admired Murong Fu even more and asked, "Who was the first hero?"

Murong Fu said: "It was Mozi, the founder of Mohism. The Mohism founded by Mozi is the earliest chivalrous organization in China. The idea of ​​Mohism is to love all and not to attack. To love all is to advocate that the world should be filled with love, to love others as you love your own family, which is similar to the Confucian idea that benevolent people love others."

"Non-aggression means stopping wars and pursuing peace. In the past, all countries were very weak, so Mozi led his disciples to help those weak countries defend their cities and prevent invasions by big countries. The unswerving pursuit of peace, this is Mozi, the ancestor of the heroes in the martial arts world!"

Xiao Feng was moved and said: "Mozi, you are indeed a great hero!"

Murong Fu said: "But times have changed. The population is growing, and the country is getting stronger. The small Mohist School is simply unable to stop the war. In the world, there are many selfish people, and few selfless people, so the Mohist School is gradually dying out. You are also a martial arts master, and you should also feel that stopping a war of this scale is not something you can do alone."

"Yes, martial arts are ineffective during wars between countries or disputes between people." Xiao Feng said sincerely as he thought of his own powerlessness.

Murong Fu said: "With my martial arts, I can stop the war, but it is meaningless. I can't live forever, and I can't always focus on the cause of the world."

"I have also been thinking about how to achieve lasting peace. Now it seems that there is only one way!"

Xiao Feng asked hurriedly: "What method?"

Murong Fu said: "Establish the main body and unify it!"

"What do you mean?" Xiao Feng asked, puzzled.

Murong Fu explained: "In the past, the Chinese states were also divided into various states, such as Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei, and Qin, and they were constantly at war with each other. It was not until the First Emperor unified the country that the writing system was standardized, the wheel gauge was standardized, and the weights and measures were standardized. Today, do people still say that they are Qin people or Chu people?"

Xiao Feng suddenly realized, "It seems that no one distinguishes between Qin and Chu anymore, and they have all become Han people."

Murong Fu said: "This is the establishment of the subject, this is the great unification. Xiao Feng, you have been to both Khitan and Han places. Do you think that the culture of the world is better, the Han or the Khitan?"

"The Khitan and Han people have different lifestyles, but when it comes to culture, the Han people are naturally superior." Xiao Feng said, "Your Majesty. When the previous emperor was alive, he often lamented that he wanted to be a Chinese in his next life. The Liao Dynasty also inherited the Han system and called itself Chinese."

Murong Fu said, "That's right. I established the Ming Dynasty to promote world peace. How can we achieve peace? We must establish the subject and promote great unification! What is the subject of China? The Han people are the subject of China. According to preliminary statistics, there are 60 million Han people in the world, and in fact, there may be 80 million. It has only been over 100 million in the past 20 to 30 years. You Khitans and Jurchens combined are not even a fraction of the Han people, right?"

Xiao Feng and Wang Jingzhong remained silent.

The Khitans had no more than a million people, and the Jurchens had no more than a few hundred thousand, and this was just a maximum calculation.

It is indeed not even a fraction of the Han people.

"As for culture, Han culture is superior to other ethnic groups. Therefore, Han people are the main body of China!" Murong Fu said, "And I have also found a weapon for Han people to conquer the world, that is, guns and cannons. Today, my army defeated Yelu Renxian's Khitan elite with flintlock rifles. What do you think of such an army?"

"The flintlock rifle is indeed a sharp weapon," said Wang Jingzhong.

"It's really amazing." Xiao Feng nodded.

Murong Fu smiled and said, "Do you know how long it takes to train a musketeer?"

Without waiting for the two to answer, Murong Fu said, "It only takes three months!"

Wang Jingzhong and Xiao Feng were both shocked.

Wang Jingzhong's expression changed especially drastically.

He knew more about military affairs than Xiao Feng, so he naturally knew what this meant.

This means that the Han people's war potential was fully unleashed by this new weapon.

The same is true of history. By the Qing Dynasty, all nomadic peoples had gone downhill.

The firearms at that time had already compressed the living space of nomadic peoples to the extreme, and the myth of Genghis Khan could no longer be created.

Murong Fu said, "Duke Chengguo, it takes at least ten years to train one of your iron floats, and this is because you Jurchens have been riding and shooting since childhood, which reduces costs. Even if you occupy the entire Liaodong, you can only afford to support 3,000 iron floats. And my musketeers can be trained by recruiting a farmer in three months. The Han people will soon exceed 100 million, and it will not be difficult to organize millions of troops and equip them with flintlock rifles. If the Khitan and Jurchen still want to be enemies with the Han people by then, what will be the result?"

This is exactly why Murong Fu’s magical powers are clearly enough to suppress the world, and why he also demonstrated his line-up shooting skills.

It is to tell these fishing and hunting nomadic people that times have changed and the tactics of offense and defense have changed!
The era when nomadic peoples could enter the country by relying on their bravery and high level of organization is gone forever.

In this new era of queuing for execution, the small population of nomadic peoples simply cannot withstand the consumption of executions.

That’s it, there’s no machine guns yet, no railways yet!

Even without Murong Fu, the Ming Dynasty would still be invincible!

The wolf totem and the dog totem are not as good as the dragon totem.

Xiao Feng and Wang Jingzhong's expressions changed drastically. They were both smart men and obviously realized what Murong Fu meant.

Wang Jingzhong was sweating profusely and cried out in disbelief: "Your Majesty, I beg you to give us a way out!"

"Of course there is a way out!" Murong Fu said coldly, "That is for all races to return to Han! You are also Han people!"
