War of Civilizations? What's the meaning. "
Zhuo Qun asked, leaning on the sofa.
"The war of civilizations is a war between the two major civilization systems of the Eastern and Western worlds. To understand it, our World War II is a war of that level, but there are no neutral countries. It is either war or death."
What Liao Yong said made Zhuo Qun feel a little heavy. It was nothing but civilization. The word civilization was too heavy, and it was connected with war.
"That is not a world war. In a world war, you can declare neutrality. No country will accuse a neutral country. However, if a civilized war breaks out, all countries in this civilized system will participate in the war. If you don't participate, you will die!"
Liao Yong smiled a little cruelly, but Zhuo Qun knew that he was telling the truth. This was a war between one civilization and another, just like a war between farming civilization and nomadic civilization that lasted for thousands of years.
But the difference is that the other party has its own cultural system like Zhu Xia, which means that they are an unteachable sect.
"The Uncultivable Sect!"
Zhuo Qun muttered something.
Yes, the other party is different from the nomads. They are a maritime civilization with their own cultural system. Even though their civilization is not perfect, they do have their own cultural system.
This is different from the Dark Middle Ages in the Northern Song Dynasty. Those people in the Middle Ages were all illiterate. No matter whether they were high or low, they were illiterate. Only missionaries were qualified to be literate. Others, even kings, were illiterate. If you don’t have your own culture, you can’t teach it.
But it was different after the Renaissance. They inherited the civilization of Greece. Don’t think that they must be called Rome. In fact, they really did not inherit the Roman civilization. They inherited the civilization of ancient Greece and the barbarism of the nomads, and finally formed They have the thinking system of predators and the logic of bandits.
In Zhuxia, if we like something, we will buy it or exchange it, but stealing and robbing are the last choices we want to make.
In the Western civilization system, if you like it, then go and rob it. If you rob it, it is yours. Taking the things of the poor to make yourself richer is normal in their view. normal.
Zhuxia wants peace, and Western civilization, if you want peace, it is because you are not as good as me, you are weaker than me, so you want peace, otherwise you will definitely do something to me.
This is how the first civilized war between the two sides broke out.
At that time, the bandits of Europa had taken over the entire American continent, and the Aztec civilization had been completely slaughtered. It was a real massacre, and they recorded it in their own history openly. What they said was that we gave the Americas brought civilization.
The Fengtian Jingnan Campaign that lasted for hundreds of years in Zhu Xia was no longer a real war, but had returned to the war pattern of the Spring and Autumn Period.
Just like the battle between Jin and Chu.
Everything is as recorded in Zuo Zhuan: The Jin people may not be able to advance with a large team, but the Chu people can escape from their harness, advance less, and the horses return, and then pull out their harness and throw it to the balance, and then come out. Gu said: "I am not as good as those of great countries."
As Duke Xianggong of Song Dynasty said back then, a gentleman will not be seriously injured, nor will he be treated like a bird. In ancient times, the army was not based on obstacles. Even though the country is in ruins, I can't stand in line without drums.
However, they did not lose their country.
At the beginning of this war, it was really fought at the risk of death, but it was different after the Donglin Party came out of power.
To a certain extent, everyone's goal has been achieved. The Donglin Party has gone away and will never come to power again, because the biggest financial backer behind them, Dahai Shang, is dead.
The current war is more about fighting for the orthodox voice of the Ming Dynasty. In their view, the Ming Dynasty in the land of Zhuxia lost the orthodox status of the Ming royal family after the Donglin Party came to power, and Jiaqing and his son died. It is unclear whether the new emperor found out the cause of their death and avenged them. He was really not a son of man, so he stopped recognizing the local emperor as the orthodoxy.
The local emperors did not want to lose their orthodox status, so they continued to fight. However, although the Sai kings wanted their orthodox status, they had no intention of becoming emperors. This is interesting.
The emperor and the kings of Sai were all relatives within the five servers, and they had intricate marriage relationships with each other through several major noble systems. They were all real relatives, so the war pattern began to resemble that of the Spring and Autumn Period. The model of sports war has changed. Even during the battle, no one kills each other. Except for some unlucky ones, no one dies in each war.
And this kind of war has become an annual entertainment activity. When the entire Ming Dynasty goes to war every year, a large number of people will bet on it, and the money involved each time is more than 100 million taels of silver.
And those old kings of Sai would also return to Yingtian Mansion in the Ming Dynasty to take care of themselves. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty would also give them a banquet every New Year's Eve. It was really a strange way of getting along with them.
The cause of the First Civilization War was that the two Sai kings of the Ming Dynasty died. The bandits of Europa entered the land of the two Sai kings under the pretext of doing business. They launched a surprise attack when the Sai kings were entertaining merchants. Attacked and killed them, and also killed their entire family, young and old.
They set fire to the city, fled back to Europe with the things they grabbed from the city, and publicized that they were like Pizarro killing Atahualpa and killing the king of the Ming people. The Ming people were unable to fight, and Europa Can conquer the wealthy Ming Dynasty.
Only 20,000 people at most can conquer the Ming Dynasty. After that, a large number of schools will be established in the Ming Dynasty to instill Europa culture and ideas into the Xia people, thus annihilating the Ming Dynasty culturally. At the same time, a large number of Catholic churches were established in the Ming Dynasty, and 58 archbishops were established in the Ming Dynasty by region, thus turning the Ming Dynasty into a Catholic country.
This letter was delivered to all the kings of Europe by those people, along with bloody porcelain and silk, so the whole of Europe was in commotion, and this letter also reached the Ming Emperor through certain channels And in the hands of all Sai kings.
The whole family of the King of Sai was killed. Even during the Hundred Years of Rebellion, not a single King of Sai died, let alone the whole family. This is even more impossible.
When this letter was sent to the Ming Dynasty, both the Ming Dynasty and the people became angry. King Sai, who treated him politely, had his whole family killed. This was unacceptable in the Xia Dynasty. When they saw this letter, the Ming Dynasty ignored it. Both men and women are shouting for war. No civilization has ever dared to speak of destroying the culture of Zhuxia, so war is inevitable.
Don't look at the Spring and Autumn Sports War that Ming Dynasty fought for decades, but Ming Dynasty's combat power is still the best in the world. In a short period of time, the Ming Emperor and King Sai reached an understanding.
Emperor Ming ended the Hundred Years War by exterminating the Donglin Party, and King Sai ended the war by joining the Royal Council.
