C2096 Disputes between the two Sects (1/2)

It had to be said, these veterans who had experienced the rise and fall of the heavens all had a lingering fear of this internal battle. Intra-factional rivalries have been extremely brutal since ancient times, especially since thousands of years of party strife in China has sometimes truly destroyed an empire.

Whether it was the Manchu dynasty s or the Manchu dynasty s, using the hands of the enemies to eliminate their own political enemies was already an open secret. If you don't jump, you will just disobey orders. If you jump in, you will most likely die. Even if you survive, you will still die.

In the factional battles, no one considered whether you were a vassal or not, and no one cared whether your failure would affect the safety of the empire.

It was the same in the past. Why did the imperial government try so hard to delay the expansion of the capital after the Northern Ocean navy became an army? Why did the imperial court not buy more ships or even change cannons? In the end, it was still a power struggle between the Manchu and the Han Chinese, and some of the nobles of the Qing Dynasty even hoped that Li Hongzhang would lose.

Because in their hearts, Little Japan was a disease caused by scabies, and the rise of the Chinese Officer was the greatest danger!

Xiao Letian calmly looked at the generals in front of him who were divided into two factions, and the new generation officers represented by Xiang Ying basically approved of his judgement.

However, the old generals who had experienced the Heaven's Kingdom Battle and the cruel internal conflict within the Great Qing were inclined towards the point of view that Luo Huo had mentioned earlier.

In an instant, the argument between the two sides became extremely heated, to the point that Xiang Ying and the group of young people's faces and ears were even a little red.

”You don't understand! Europe is different from the Great Clear, where nationalism is already deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so these politicians all have a bottom line when doing things! ”

”The country is their bottom line. If British politicians are people who don't care about national interests, how can they go so far?”

”Yes!” Without the support of national spirit, Britain would not be able to manage so many colonies! Why has no one split up in the colony until now? is that people's nationalism is deeply rooted in people's hearts … ”

At that moment, Xiao Letian was so excited that tears were almost flowing out. He never thought that the first batch of Chinese students would improve so quickly!

These young people had already walked in front of these old people based on their understanding of nationalism, to say nothing of anything else.

Why did China have to revolve on any continent for thousands of years, and why didn't it start colonizing and expanding after Zheng He went to the West and had a safe nautical chart?

The reason for this was very complicated, but there was one thing that could not be overlooked, and that was that the Confucian rule of the country placed too much emphasis on family matters. They were completely unable to solve the problem of the colonists' centripetal force outside the vast sea.

There was no need to analyze it before the Ming dynasty, and in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the emperors tried to establish a monarchical state. They could not tolerate the warlords splitting the earth and sealing the kings below, even if they were dukes.

The sea is a natural barrier, the population of the Central Plains has always been the private property of the monarch and the scholars.

Beijing was completely unable to control the tens of thousands of kilometers away seas that were far away from the Savage Continent! Who could stop those powerful warlords from messing with their own independent kingdom? Even if it was clearly established, the Emperor of the Beijing could only get angry, and really send troops to suppress it? How much would that cost...

It was better to develop on the continent. Once the county system was set in motion, the Confucian clan's ideology would be locked down and the common people would be tied to the land. How stable would the rule be?

It is precisely because China's politicians cannot solve this kind of national centripetal problem that China is doomed to be unable to develop the overseas colonial era.

Europe, on the other hand, has completely broken the ties that families and clans place on individuals. No one is forcing young people to raise their parents. You have to work as a farmer in your hometown. You have to get married at the age of 18. You have to have a son after you get married.
