Chapter 262 War is a war of righteousness
Only by clarifying what Han, what Hu is, and whether the land that is going to enter is Hu or Han, can Xu Ping determine what policies he has implemented. Wars must kill people and bleeding, which must be accompanied by bloody killing, but wars still divide justice and injustice. All wars are confused because they all need to kill people, and they think they are all of the same nature and confusing the horizon.
Xu Ping's dispatch of troops this time has made it clear since he was in Zhenrong Army that it was to promote the righteous army, punish the unjust officials, and punish the people and punish the crimes. This is not for the sake of good words, but this dispatch of troops is of this nature and a just war. Only in a just war can Xu Ping use war to transform the army, otherwise there will be no result.
Qin sent general Meng Tian to command 300,000 troops to expel the Huns in the north and set up Shuofang and Jiuyuan County. He did not seek this land, but because the Huns continued to use this place as a base and went south to invade. Qin's war against the Huns was a counterattack after being invaded, a just war. Not to mention the Huns going south to burn, kill, and loot every year, but to treat this war as a battle to expand the territory, it is to confuse right and wrong.
During the Han Dynasty, the Huns attacked the south again and fought back many times. Fenglang Juxu and tied stone Yanran were two major martial arts masters of the Han people. It was not because the two wars killed a large number of people and seized a large amount of materials, but because these two wars were counterattacks by the Han people against invasion and had natural justice. Only a just war can be called martial arts, rather than divided by the achievements.
Everyone farms, everyone eats, and there is a spirit in the farming culture where people don’t offend me and I don’t offend others. But the same is true, if you offend me, I will offend others. If you offend you, you will bear the consequences. When you come to burn, kill, loot, you will show your power and show your power. You are beaten so hard that you can’t bear it. The man never felt the rich expression of yours.
The Qin Dynasty established Shuofang, Jiuyuan, and the Han Dynasty established four counties in Hexi. After more than a thousand years, it has become the Han area.
The exchange and integration of nations is of course not warm and affection, but full of blood and killing. If you come to beat me every year, I will fight you back and you have to continue obediently. Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, this place has been the old place of the Han people. It was not robbed by the Han people, but it was you who offended me every year and I had to occupy it. It was you who sent it yourself. If you are willing to send it out, the Han people have already taken it. For thousands of years, the people living here have already been Han people, the production method is the production method of the Han people, and the culture is the traditional culture of the Han people.
The production method will affect cultural tendencies, so Fanhu invaded the border and seized land, which always destroyed farmland and turned into pasture land. Similarly, the Han people fought back against the land occupied by them, and they would open up ditches and open them into farmland. The Yin, Xia and other prefectures occupied by Dangxiang were the homeland of the Han people, and the rest were part of the two counties of Shuofang and Jiuyuan.
Xu Ping wanted to destroy Yuanhao, take Shuofang, and Jiuyuan's former land to restore the Han territory, not to invade wars. Therefore, with the destination of this battle, Xu Ping repeatedly emphasized that it was Jiuyuan City. The civil servants in the court understood it and always emphasized that advancing north was a crime of urging the people and attacking them. As for those who did not understand, they did not need to understand it.
During the Tang Dynasty, Dangxiang moved to the homeland of the Han people. In the past two hundred years, the Song Dynasty had fought several times and finally recognized it. Yuan Hao came to power and acted against the enemy, forcing people in the country to wear Hu clothes and use Hu language. This was something the Han people had never done before. Xu Ping changed customs and customs on the re-occupied Han territory was not compulsory, but Yuan Hao would kill people if he didn't do so.
Rebelling against Song as an unjust minister and abused the people was a crime. Yuan Hao had committed all his evil deeds, both internally and externally, and his death was not enough to compensate him. Li Foma was captured and could still spend his life safely in Kaifeng City, but Yuan Hao had no such possibility. As long as he was captured by Xu Ping, he would behead him before the army to thank the world.
What is going against the trend of history? When talking about national exchanges and integration, Yuan Hao is doing things against the contrary. He said that he rebelled against Song because he was oppressed and looked down upon by Song, and he had no conscience. What is going against the general trend of the world? After Yuan Hao's death, agriculture was soon promoted in this area, and Dangxiang was rapidly sinicized. It can be seen that this is the Han area, and sinicization is the general trend. Whether internal or external, Yuan Hao is a sinner of history!
It is said that the Hu people are more concerned about culture than military affairs. After entering the Han area, the dynasty was destroyed due to rapid sinicization. Later generations were heartbroken by it. Where is your view of right and wrong? If you are not sinicized, stay honestly on your own land and not go south to invade. Has the Han Dynasty ever fought you? I want to occupy the Han area and maintain my own culture. Where does this kind of good thing come from in the world? The Han people are weak, and it is a great shame to be occupied by you. Because you can't work, you have to farm and weave clothes for you. Han people are born to owe you! I think robbers are natural to rob people, and if you steal you, you have to ride on people's heads for generations. The logic of robbers is to talk to robbers! What the Han people want is to farm and feed themselves. I can fight myself in war, so I don't need to make a group of people to pretend!
When a Han people form a collective, they must first ask what this collective is and what it will bring to everyone. Once they recognize it, then ask me what I want to do and what responsibilities and obligations I have to bear. There is no need to bargain. Those who bargain price are not called collectives. If you want to work and make money, I will make friends with you. I will do as much as you pay. Everyone has nothing to do. Only recognized collectives are qualified to talk about responsibilities and obligations, and as long as the recognized collectives, it doesn’t matter whether my efforts are worth it or not.
This is true for families, families, and countries. From the perspective of the country, we must first want to be not recognized by the people, and from the perspective of the people, we must be brave enough to assume our own responsibilities and obligations. There is no price in between. If the people who assume obligations are dissatisfied, it means that the country will be dereliction of duty. If the people do not assume their own responsibilities and obligations, they will be punished or even punished.
The world is the world of the world, not the world of one person. This is not a deception, but the responsibility and obligation of everyone. To be a king above ten thousand people, one must assume the responsibility and obligation of the king. If you do not do well, the king will lose his virtue and the world will chase him. I have no obligation to be a cow or a horse for you, but just recognize this collective, in this collective, you are the king and the people, and everyone will do their own duties.
For a person, you feel that this is meaningless to you, but for all the people of the world, it is a necessary constraint. When no way to restrain the monarch's responsibility is found, the loss of virtue shows that the world is rising and dynasties change.
The Tangwu Revolution was innovating, and this kind of value was reflected. Only those who are virtuous in the world were occupants. It doesn’t matter whether you were a virtuous person. What’s important is that when you live in the world, you must be virtuous. If you lose your virtue, then everyone will fight against the natural righteousness and it is a just act. There is no disloyalty at this time, only the righteousness of the world.
The Han people will not develop foolish loyalty from their own traditional farming culture. Whether the king or the people, they are the same as loyal to the world. If the people are not loyal to the world, they will be punished. If the king is not loyal to the world, they will be rebellious.
To attribute all the nihilization of benevolence, righteousness and morality to deception, make people believe that there is only strength and money in the world. That may be the future, but it is not the history of merit. Using this set to explain history is to nihilize history and vulgar morality.
What is Han style? For the emperor, you must not lose your virtue, otherwise you will have to accept punishment. Only those who are virtuous are here in the world. You are not like a monarch, and the ministers advise or even curse. Listen honestly and correct them well, otherwise you will change others.
"Is it better for the emperor to have a genital? Those who are strong and powerful will do it." This is Hu Feng. Why should I be bound by the world that I have the ability to conquer with my real ability? If you don't like it, just rob the world of the world if you have the ability, do whatever you want.
If you accept Hu Feng's logic, then be honest in this collective, which is the choice of some people. If you don't accept this Hu Feng, the country will be injustice and floating in the sea. If you can't even float in the sea, it will be a fucking fuck. If you want to be a collective in this collective, it is not related to others' business, but don't laugh at others for not knowing the current affairs.
An Chongrong held heavy troops and told people that the emperor had strong soldiers and strong horses. Do you think it makes sense because at that time, strong soldiers and strong horses could conquer the world. If one day, if you don’t rely on troops and horses, but money, do you also think that the richest person should be the emperor?
When a person is in a group, he must take responsibility. If he thinks it is not suitable, he withdraws from the group. You can find countless examples in history that do not match this point, but you cannot deny that this is a value orientation. Using individual behaviors to deconstruct the orientation of the whole, so as to achieve the purpose of analyzing the individual to deny the whole. This kind of cleverness can only be played for a while.
It is the nature of animals to seek profit and avoid harm, but this principle cannot be used to deconstruct human morality. The reason why human beings is human is that they are different from animals and can restrain their nature, so they say they are like beasts when scolding people. Even if they want to be beasts, they cannot deconstruct human moral system by themselves.
For the army, emphasizing the integration of military and civilians means that soldiers join the army to fulfill their responsibilities. When wearing military uniforms, they are still part of the people. Joining the army and fighting, bleed and sacrifice are to fulfill their responsibilities and obligations, not for money and titles. The title is to reward the soldiers who are responsible for their merits. Soldiers should fulfill their duties and fight bloody battles, and the country should actually award titles according to military merits. Under this system, there are also rewards for money and titles based on merits, but these are rewards for the state to fulfill their obligations to the people, not for your life. If you feel unfair, you will have the responsibility of the person who teaches merits by the military and law.
Serve life for money and loyalty for the country are two concepts. Everyone's life is very precious and cannot be bought for no amount of money. Life that can be bought with money is a cheap life. Since it is a bad life, do you think the army will cherish it?
Under the logic of joining the army for money, the title does not matter to reward merit, and the reward does not matter to be rich or thin, enough to make you feel that it is good to buy life. It does not matter to be fair, only the commander of the army thinks you are worth the price.
This is not the traditional Han culture with a sense of responsibility and collective honor and kindness. The core of Xu Ping's military reform is to re-establish the sense of responsibility and honor and kindness of soldiers in the army. Ren Fu died in a fight, not the cultural exaggeration of the imperial guards, but he exceeded his own identity and had the courage to shoulder his own responsibilities. His presence in the imperial guards made people shocked, but could not resonate with others.
From a cultural perspective, looking back at the system of this era and combining it with his thousand-year-old insights is a completely different place from the original confusion after Xu Ping set out from the Zhenrong Army. In the past, he said that he occupied the ideological highland was actually just based on a vague understanding, and there was no outline, and it was different from now on.
