Chapter 66: Nanhai Railway Journey 6 In fact, long before the Choshu feudal envoy arrived at Lingao, the central "relevant departments" who came to this time and space had already collected intelligence through the mini reconnaissance satellite among Doraemon's magical props to conduct an analysis of the development of the Japanese Civil War. deduction and evaluation.
Judging from the map, the current situation of the Japanese Civil War is very similar to the situation on the eve of the Overthrow War in the mid-19th century.
The Choshu Domain, which has received weapons assistance and technology exports from time-travelers for many years, is the well-deserved backbone of the Overthrow Movement. .
The Satsuma Domain, which had just been taught a lesson by the Lingao Traveler Senate Expeditionary Fleet, also followed the current situation under the "persuasion" of the cannonball, joined the overthrow camp, and took the second top spot.
The remaining vassals in the southwest either took the initiative to join or were coerced by force, and now they have all joined the overthrow army.
Those who persisted in refusing to surrender were already treated as surrender certificates and killed.
It's just that all the vassals in Shikoku Island still insist on the pro-shogunate stance, which seems a bit regretful.
However, even in the end of the war in the 19th century, the barren and impoverished feudal lords of Shikoku Island, except for the legendary celebrity Sakamoto Ryoma in the Tosa clan, were basically just playing tricks.
With their meager military and financial resources, they cannot affect the overall situation of the country at all.
Not to mention that during the Kyushu pacification war in the early spring of this year, several vassal states on Shikoku Island were severely punished by the overthrown army for sending troops to sneak attacks on Kyushu Island.
For a long time to come, they may have to hide in Licking his wounds in his old nest, he sat back and watched the Eastern and Western armies decisively defeat Kinki.
As the opponent, the Tokugawa shogunate also suffered a bad year.
First, the expedition to Choshu a few years ago was defeated miserably.
The Hatamoto samurai who were the foundation of the shogunate suffered heavy losses.
Then, the new modern army that had been painstakingly built up in the past few years was completely destroyed by "unknown pirates" before they met the enemy.
Next, the remaining allies and strongholds of the shogunate in western Japan were also removed one after another, and the battle lines were They retreated all the way from the border of Choshu Domain to the vicinity of Kyoto.
If it were the Tokugawa shogunate in the 19th century, which had enjoyed peace and tranquility for more than two hundred years, was decayed from top to bottom, and completely bloodless, under so many successive heavy blows, I am afraid that people's hearts would have been turned away, on the verge of collapse, and even in the process of disintegration.
In the state.
But the problem is that the world today is still in the seventeenth century, not the nineteenth century.
At this time, it was only more than twenty years since the end of the Warring States Period in Japan.
Within one or two generations, many had followed Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu and participated in major events such as the Imjin invasion of Korea and the Sekigahara War.
The veterans of the scene are still alive.
The military strength of Japan's various vassals has not been "blunted" by the long years of peace.
The entire Tokugawa shogunate and the various feudal lords who served as the arms of the shogunate still maintained to a considerable extent the enterprising spirit they had at the beginning of the opening of the shogunate.
They were far from the original history of the lax arms and ignorance of war in the late 19th century.
The cowardly waste can be compared to the array.
Therefore, faced with the extremely unfavorable "open door" situation on the Kansai battlefield, the determined "Aoi Third Generation" General Tokugawa Iemitsu did not shamefully abandon the army and flee back to Edo like the last general Tokugawa Keiki.
Although he originally relied on The new modern shogunate army, which was the backbone, had been annihilated on the outskirts of Osaka City by the "21st Century Pirates" of the Vladivostok Far East Company before they had time to fight the Choshu Army.
The blow to the morale of the army was extremely serious.
However, for the sake of the Tokugawa family, which had been stable for less than twenty years, Tokugawa Iemitsu still tried his best to inspire fighting spirit, win over allies, coerce and bribe each clan to provide more reinforcements, and restore the fighting ability of the shogunate army.
At this time, the Tokugawa family and its descendants, who were still on the rise, showed no sign of wavering or fear when faced with the terrible omen of a change of ownership.
Instead, they were united in a rare move, clenching their teeth and scratching the ground.
They almost spent all their money to transport troops, grain, horses and ordnance to the front line.
If the shogunate fell anyway, no matter how much treasure they hid, they would only be able to take advantage of the various rebels.
Therefore, when the Choshu clan ended the Kyushu pacification war and was gearing up to "Shangluo" to attack Kyoto, the shogunate army had once again assembled a huge army of more than 60,000 people in the Kinki area and was ready.
Although the Overthrow Army could also muster more than 60,000 troops, due to the long-distance expedition and external operations, in order to ensure the defense of the supply line and the rear hinterland, it could only invest a maximum of 40,000 troops on the Kinki battlefield.
In this way, the Overthrow Army is equivalent to attacking more with less.
Even if it has a certain degree of technological leadership in weapons and equipment and infantry tactics, it seems that it may not be able to attract more foreign aid if it cannot attract more foreign aid.
Offset the strength advantage and home field advantage of the 60,000 shogunate army.
Therefore, although there are many similarities in the situation, the current Changshu Army cannot be as devastating as the original overthrow movement in the mid-19th century in history.
Just through a Fushimi that lasted less than forty-eight hours.
The Battle of Toba completely destroyed the Tokugawa family's already extremely weak fighting spirit and backbone at that time, and basically established a sure-win situation for the overthrow of the Tokugawa faction.
There was only "garbage time" left to finish the work.
In general, the Tokugawa shogunate, which has a great family and great business, will be able to fight as long as its will to fight does not waver.
It cannot be easily defeated in one or two battles.

Even if they were defeated in the field battle on the Kinki Plains, the shogunate army could continue to stalk Osaka Castle and hold back the front of the defeated shogunate army.
Even if Osaka falls and the entire Kansai changes hands, the shogunate can still resist step by step in Tokaido.
At the same time, it can seize the time to regroup and recruit troops again from the base camp in the Kanto Plain, preparing to fight against the exhausted army in the heart of its own territory.
The next round of competition was originally the rapid fall of the Tokugawa shogunate in history, but it was actually more similar to the disintegration of the Soviet Union.
When the entire upper echelons of the shogunate lost the courage and confidence to resist and abandoned their own political power and legal system, even if the lower-level minions such as the Shinsengumi and Aizu clan were still fighting, they could no longer reverse the overall situation.
On the contrary, as the challenger, the Mori family of the Choshu Domain only had one chance to overthrow the shogunate.
It would be nothing if they encountered some insignificant setbacks.
If it were a truly traumatic defeat, I am afraid that it would only take one chance to overthrow the shogunate.
Zhoufan returned to its original shape.
After the war situation took a turn for the worse, and faced with the inevitable defeat of "falling down the wall and pushing everyone back", even if the Maori Nagashu Domain would not be deposed and annihilated, all the previous grand hegemony would be completely in vain, at least within a few generations.
Within, there is definitely no need to dream about sending troops to Kyoto again to compete with the Tokugawa family for world hegemony.
Based on this assessment, in order to prevent the Tokugawa shogunate from turning over during the Jedi counterattack and causing all previous investments in the Choshu Domain to go to waste, the time travelers provided further military assistance to the Choshu Domain and even directly dispatched fleets.
Helping in battle is almost a must.
But the problem is that in the past, there was only the Lingao Traveler Senate, and earlier, only Marshal Huangshi was responsible for "investing" in Japan.
Now there is one more Vladivostok Far East Company whose interests need to be coordinated with each other.
Both sides are staring at the Japanese archipelago with red eyes.
If the interests are not distributed in advance, each will fight for his own, and the chain will most likely be lost. .
Not to mention that a "relevant department" of the central government was recently parachuted down.
Although this department is not very involved, even if it is just to "respect the authority of the central government", the Lingao Traveler Senate cannot handle this on its own.
Waiting for something big.
In addition, the time-travelers also have great doubts about the recent heretical faction in the Overthrow Army camp, the "Japanese overseas" crusaders in Manila who have appeared out of nowhere, and the two Spanish warships that have come to assist in the battle.
I don’t know if this is just another effort by the Jesuits to spread their faith in the East, or a harbinger of the Spanish Philippine colonial governor’s attempt to expand its territory, or it is really just the revenge of the Tokugawa shogunate by Japanese Christians who were previously driven overseas by the shogunate.
The hatred is similar to the various anti-Qing riots organized by Sun Yat-sen among overseas Chinese.
Of course, no matter how much these guys hide their evil intentions, they will only be crushed in the face of the absolutely superior military strength of the time travellers.
However, considering the views of the Choshu clan, a die-hard ally, and Japanese Christians, it is better to be more cautious about some things.
After all, in this world, advanced weapons and tactics alone have never been able to defeat everyone.
The once arrogant soldiers of the United States of America were dragged to exhaustion in the quagmire of the Vietnam War and the Iraq War.
All time travelers still know the lesson. of In short, the proposal to provide military assistance to the Choshu Domain will definitely be passed, but there are many questions about how many troops to send, which family's troops to dispatch, who will be the top commander on the front line, and what strategies and tactics to implement.
The issue needs to be discussed again and again.
After everyone in the carriages with different thoughts had a simple or sumptuous lunch, the train had already arrived at Changhua Port.
At Changhua Port, the Hainan Island Ring Railway branches off from here to connect the Shilu Iron Mine in the nearby inland mountains to facilitate the mining of these high-quality iron ores, which are quite rare throughout China, and then through the seaport and railway Transported to industrial areas.
Long before the time travel, when the executives of the executive committee were choosing where to travel, the iron ore resources on Hainan Island were one of the important conditions for being chosen.
Shilu Iron Mine is a large-scale iron mine located about 40 kilometers inland on the west coast of Hainan Island.
In another time and space, its proven reserves exceed 300 million tons.
Moreover, the average grade of the ore exceeds 50, and coupled with its superior conditions for open-pit mining, it is an extremely rare and excellent mineral source.
In addition, Shilu Iron Mine not only produces abundant iron and copper ores, but also has cobalt, nickel, sulfur, aluminum, gold and other metal resources.
For the Senate of Lingao Travelers who want to build a modern industrial system on Hainan Island, the Shilu Iron Mine is really a treasure that cannot be missed.
However, since the "Australian Bandits" settled in Lingao, although they have organized exploration of the Shilu Iron Mine, they have never really developed the Shilu Iron Mine.
This is not because the Senate does not have this idea, but because of objective conditions.
Due to limited conditions, it is currently impossible to develop the Shilu Iron Mine.
First of all, the first difficulty is that the Shilu Iron Mine is located inland.
Its main mining site is a full 40 kilometers away from Changhua City, the nearest seaport, and the entire mining area is in an undeveloped primitive environment.
With the extremely limited manpower and material resources of the Lingao Traveler Senate, it is almost impossible to build a railway from the sea to the inland mining area in this environment.
Even opening an ordinary mountain road is a huge project that consumes people and money.
Moreover, if the railway cannot be opened, if oxcarts, horse-drawn carriages and porters are used to travel 40 kilometers to transport iron ore, not only will the cost be extremely high, but the maximum transportation volume will simply not be able to meet the basic needs of large-scale industrial production. need.

Secondly, on Hainan Island, in addition to the Shilu Iron Mine, which is of excellent quality but difficult to develop, there is also the Tiandu Iron Mine in Sanya as an "alternative", although the reserves and mineral varieties of this mine are not as good as those of Shilu , and the distance from Lingao Base Camp is further than Shilu Iron Mine, but the advantage is that the location of the mining area is good, very close to the seaport, which facilitates sea transportation.
In addition, the scale of Lingao's coal-steel composite industrial system is limited after all.
Even if Shilu Iron Mine is not developed for the time being, the iron ore produced by Tiandu alone can basically support the early production and development needs of Lingao Travelers.
However, today is different from the past.
With the arrival of the "relevant departments" from the central government across time and space, and the 22nd century black technology magical props in the Doraemon world that followed, the development of Shilu Iron Mine has become a piece of cake.
It is very easy.
Whether it is transportation capacity, construction capacity or smelting level, it is no longer an obstacle to the development of Shilu Iron Mine.
As early as the beginning of the planning of the ring-island railway, the "relevant departments" responded to the request of the Lingao Crosser Group and laid out a railway branch line to open up the transportation line from the seaside Changhua Port to Shilu.
And began to build a large-scale coal-iron composite industrial base locally.
In this way, the clean coal produced in Vietnam's Hongji can be transported to the nearby "Steel City" in Changhua for use in the smelting and processing of steel and other metals.
The environmental pollution problems in Lingao and Sanya can also be alleviated to a considerable extent.
The heavy industries in Lingao will gradually be relocated to Changhua.
With the Tiandu Iron Mine in Sanya having a better substitute like Shilu, it can simply be shut down in order to leave a green mountain and green water for the convalescents in the modern world.
Of course, even if the railways and iron ore mines have been initially completed using black technology equipment, a lot of lives will probably be lost in the subsequent open-pit mining process.
Even if it is just to save costs, the central government will not be free of charge.
Provide Lingao Crossing Group with too many black technology mining props.
First of all, modern mining machinery is large and heavy and difficult to transport.
Secondly, its maintenance capabilities cannot keep up, and the fuel required for operation cannot be raised.
Finally, there are not so many qualified operators, so it is better to use this technology.
Time and space manpower to mine manually.
When the Lingao Traveler Senate was mining Tiandu Iron Mine, two thousand to three thousand people died in the mining area every year from various accidents, diseases and other causes.
With the total population of Hainan Island at the end of the Ming Dynasty being less than one million, it was basically impossible to survive.
It is impossible to support this cruel industrialization process of cannibalism.
In the early days of the Industrial Revolution, those early crisis-ridden factories and mines were not just a change of lifestyle for the rural farmers and urban refugees who were forced into the factories, but they were truly devouring human lives.
To this end, the Lingao Traveler Group's countermeasure is to contact slave traders from various countries, import a large number of native slaves from Southeast Asia, consume their cheap lives to achieve industrialization, and establish the most prosperous slave training base in China in Sanya on Hainan Island. .
The most dangerous and arduous tasks that followed, such as road excavation and reclamation of wasteland in Taiwan, almost all relied on the bones of these slaves to succeed.
After the Shilu Iron Mine was completed, the slave concentration camp originally located in Sanya was also moved to Changhua Port based on the principle of nearby use and the consideration of making room for people from the central government.
When this passenger train stopped at Changhua Station, not far from the seaport, it was catching up with a group of slave ships docking to "unload" the Southeast Asian native slaves who had survived the arduous voyage, drilling them in twos and threes.
After getting out of the hot and humid bottom cabin, he blinked his cloudy eyes, dragged his heavy shackles half-deadly, and walked down the gangplank on the lower deck driven by the whip.
From a distance, almost all of these slaves were half-naked or even bare-bottomed.
The rags they might once have worn had turned into a pile of tattered pieces of cloth during the voyage, and their skins were covered with all kinds of rags.
He had such whip marks and wounds, and there were heavy handcuffs and shackles on his body.
There was a rattling noise, and each of them was so weak.
In order to save food costs, and to prevent the native slaves from having the strength to cause trouble when they were full, the only food the slave traders provided them during the voyage was sweet potatoes. , not only in small quantities, but also raw.
Several naturalized officials with short shaved hair and four-pocket "cadre uniforms" were on the dock, as if selecting mules, horses, and livestock.
They were critically inspecting these slaves with depressed expressions, and at the same time talking to the slaves with dissatisfaction.
The traders lowered the prices.
These maritime merchants were probably novices in the slave trade, and they didn't know how to "dress up" slaves before selling them.
Next to them was a group of similarly half-naked slaves, unloading clean coal that had just arrived from Vietnam from a coal ship entering the port.
Under the scorching sun, their half-naked bodies were covered with black coal powder and sticky with sweat.
The same black tattered straw hats and cloth strips around their buttocks were the only labor protection measures.
When the goods on a ship are unloaded, the overseers will use sticks to drive the slaves to other places to continue working.
There is little language communication between the two sides.
The Lingao Traveler Senate initially wanted to train a group of translators, who Zhi soon discovered that this was an impossible task.
Although in the eyes of the Chinese, these Southeast Asian indigenous slaves all look the same, short, dark and thin, they all seem to be about the same.

In fact, they belong to at least dozens of different ethnic groups, each speaking a different language, and no one knows from which corner the next batch of slaves transported by the slave ship will be captured, so the supervisors of the slave camp are very worried.
He quickly gave up any intention of civilized management, and implemented stick education on the slaves from the beginning, and gave them a violent beating from time to time.
For the savage natives who were loose in nature, these physical pains were the most effective way to teach them to obey the rules. .
Every time a basket of coal or other goods was loaded and unloaded, Southeast Asian indigenous slaves would take a bamboo token from the hands of the naturalized overseers.
If you want to have enough to eat, you have to complete the work quota and collect the specified number of bamboo cards.
The result of slacking off at work is that they don't have enough to eat, they don't have the energy to work the next day, and they eventually starve to death under heavy physical labor.
Slaves who refused to work were executed directly, and their bodies were hung on the gallows in the slave camp to dry—until a new victim was hung, or the rancidity was so great that doctors deemed it a threat to cause a plague.
This was a common practice throughout the world in the seventeenth century.
Although this scene is like purgatory on earth, I have to say that using slave labor is more refreshing than any sweatshop.
As long as there is enough sugar and rum to exchange slaves with various maritime merchants, labor will no longer be a shortcoming restricting the development of Hainan Island.
As for how many Southeast Asian indigenous slaves would bury their bones in a foreign land for this, well, it is better to get outsiders to serve as scapegoats than to let your own people die.
Sitting in the clean and tidy car, looking at the dirty, noisy, unpleasant and cruel scenes outside the car window, those travelers from the Lingao Group might have been a little intolerable in the past, but now they have already become a little bit concerned about it.
Feeling numb, I simply closed the curtains to keep my eyes out of sight.
As for General Huangshi in the luxury dining car, he has long been accustomed to seeing the most brutal killings and slavery.
He has seen countless horrific things in Liaodong.
There will be no reaction to this.
As for the visiting "Changzhou Su Lao" Shusu Nobuyoshi, although this Japanese "Sinologist" did seem to be gentle and gentle, he looked like a gentle scholar, but when he was conducting campaigns on the Japanese archipelago, he plundered villages in various ways , burning down castle towns, conducting "random arrests" and "human hunting" of townspeople and villagers, or torture and killing enemy soldiers, they have never done less cruel things.
In addition, the living environment in Japan's gold and silver mines may not be much better than the slave camps here on Hainan Island.
As for Senior Ma Tong, who has traveled through infinite space, she has even seen the purgatory mode where zombies fill the city and nuclear bombs destroy the world, as well as the nightmare scene of the "City of Death" caused by the Black Death in the Middle Ages.
Compared with this, this slave camp A small scene is really nothing at all.
Only those few Jiangnan scholars from the "Donglin Tour Group" discussed this with righteousness and unbearability, just like a group of humanitarian fighters.
"The thief is really unkind and unjust.
He deliberately wants to ruin the reputation of China and commits such cruelty.
He actually has the nerve to claim to be a descendant of the Song Dynasty."
"Historical records show that all the sages and saints of China throughout the ages have taken it as their duty to educate the barbarians.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, our emperor has always been kind to the barbarians.
The wind thief arrogated the title of Miao descendants of the Song Dynasty.
He didn't even understand the truth and worked hard for the barbarians.
His methods were outrageous.
He didn't have the slightest etiquette of a great country.
Is this what Chinese people should do?
" "Is this ambitious thief planning to lead his beasts to eat people?
If we can meet the king of thief, we will definitely spit on him."
Although they did not dare to speak too loudly because of the many "thieves" on the bus, the "gentlemen of Donglin" still lowered their voices and stood on a moral level to criticize the "cruelty and cruelty" of the Australian thieves. , "having grudges against the barbarians", as if they are all good people who are willing to give charity and love good deeds.
Only the "inaction cubs" who followed this unreliable amateur investigation team from South Zhili.
At that time, Anhui and Jiangsu provinces were classified as South Zhili, and Hebei Province was classified as North Zhili.
Zhixin’s new friend, who appeared to be from a gentry family in Xiang’an County, Wuwei Prefecture, Anhui Province, was actually Yu Guozhen, a 21st century time traveler who had passed through his soul.
He couldn’t help but roll his eyes at this.
No matter how cruel and unkind these so-called "Australians" are to the natives of Southeast Asia, they are still trying to divert trouble from outside, using the bones of foreigners to fill the bloody mouth of the industrial revolution so that more Chinese people can save their lives.
And you Donglin people The moral gentleman of the Party stands on the moral high ground and criticizes others all day long, but when it is his turn, how does he treat his compatriots in the Ming Dynasty?
To put it bluntly, in today's Ming Dynasty, the integrity of the entire ruling class is unprecedentedly low compared to later generations.
Corruption and bending the law have become commonplace in the officialdom.
There are many powerful people in the local area.
There are fortress-like buildings built by celebrities and "good people" everywhere.
Every household is raising a family.

They often pretend to be bandits and bandits to attack each other, or they directly collude with the real bandits and bandits.
As for ordinary people, they are like ants with no human rights no matter where they are.
If those scholars with a good reputation take a fancy to someone's property, they can forcefully "buy it" by throwing in a few small coins, or even without paying a penny.
At this time, law and morality are just decorations.
Faced with such a harsh "ecological environment" and heavy exploitation by the government, almost all large households were spared their money and passed taxes on to the poor until they were forced to death.
In the entire Ming Dynasty at that time, self-cultivating farmers had already become It is a rare protected animal and is rapidly becoming extinct.
Even if there is no continuous war, the common people would not want to eat a few full meals.
At best, they can starve to death peacefully.
When there is a famine and they really can't survive, they can finally escape and sell their children.
This is the only way out for women.
Speaking of which, the daily living standards of most tenant farmers in the world during the Chongzhen period may not be comparable to the slave camps on Hainan Island.
Even among the big landlords, the same rule of thumb is not about the law, but about power.
Everyone either takes the official route and competes to see who has greater prestige and more powerful backers, and can use the power of the court to suppress opponents.
Figures within the system such as feudal lords, nobles, and high-ranking officials in the ministry usually behave in this way.
Because the legal rules of the Ming Dynasty were formulated around other people.
They are supported by the state as their thugs.
As for the gentry outside the system, they can only rely on their own power to fight and kill.
Your fists are big and you can speak easily.
The more manpower you can call upon, the more territory you will occupy.
If you have the ability, you can directly send troops to exterminate the enemy's family, and then say that the enemy's entire family died of fire or plague, and hand over all the property to you before death.
As long as the backing is strong and management is in place, no matter how ridiculous the reason is, it won't be a problem.
In addition, as far as Yu Guozhen knows, even those so-called scholarly families known as "heirlooms of poetry and etiquette" and "strict family traditions" are, at best, just restraining the direct descendants of the family and not allowing them to go out with their servants to bully men.
A domineering girl directly ruins the family's reputation, and by the way makes enemies and causes trouble everywhere.
Instructing their servants to make loan sharks in the market at high profits, blackmail merchants to extort filial piety, seize the land of surrounding small landowners and farmers, force tenants to sell their sons and daughters, and even the whole family hang themselves, is still something that every family can do.
I have been doing it every year.
At most, I don’t pretend to be bandits to kill people and sell goods, or organize human trafficking gangs to rob civilian girls.
Otherwise, where will the money come from to support the luxurious life of a large family?
No matter whose farm they are on, some people starve to death or commit suicide in despair every year.
Every year, baby girls are drowned by their parents at birth because they cannot feed them.
There are often 20 to 30 percent of the people in a village because they cannot eat for a long time.
Suffering from big neck disease due to salt exposure In short, this society of the late Ming Dynasty, with its moral decay and people's livelihood, feels very much like an enlarged version of the dark elf dungeon of the Faerun continent in the DND world to the travelers.
The people at the lower level are regarded as disgusting expendables like ants, with no guarantee of survival.
The rulers at the upper level are full of endless and brutal internal fighting.
Each family is sharpening their knives against each other in an attempt to kill each other.
And every family member is also fighting fiercely with each other, using all kinds of methods.
Just like what is described in Dream of Red Mansions, the more wealthy the family, the weaker the family ties.
Of course, humans are not dark elves after all, so even in this apocalyptic world where all living things are devastated, there is still some positive energy.
Not every place and every family is so dark.
But in general, the general trend of this world is that good prevails over evil.
There are much more evil people than good people, and there are still many more places like purgatory than places like the human world.
Well, why do you know so clearly about these dark and sinister activities?
Because Yu Guozhen has experienced it all the way.
As early as the beginning of his career, he was repeatedly assassinated by his relatives and narrowly escaped death several times.
The attitude within the clan was also at a standstill.
Watching tigers fight has no intention of protecting the weak.

There is no way, in these days, it is rare for brothers and sisters to be respectful among wealthy families, but it is very common for brothers to fight like enemies.
Nobles such as Zhang Fuzhi, the minister of the Ministry of Industry during the Wanli period, tortured his biological brother Zhang Xuyu to death in order to seize his brother's property.
As a result, Zhang Xuyu's son, Zhang Pu, a talented man who later became famous for writing the tombstones of five people, had to rely on his mother's meager income from spinning to make ends meet.
Therefore, facing such a dark and bloody social environment, Yu Guozhen, a young man who was originally kind and kind, had to be ruthless, train his servants, and kill decisively.
After some civil and military battles, he successively brought the coveted The two uncles who owned his property wiped out the family, and also defeated the water thieves they colluded with.
Only then did he win the family civil war and frighten the group of bad relatives who wanted to kill him all day long to make money.
Immediately, with the protection of this fierce servant and the freshwater pearl cultivation technology of later generations, Yu Guozhen finally succeeded in making the first pot of gold to make a fortune.
Next, relying on this small armed force that he personally organized and trained, Yu Guozhen repeatedly fought against bandits and bandits from all walks of life, accumulated war experience, and finally won every step of the way, thus earning the name of the heroic "Inaction Young Tiger".
At the same time, he used the novel knowledge of "Gewu" and "Western Learning" as bait to establish a relationship with Fang Yizhi, a famous scholar in Tongcheng, and then infiltrated the Donglin Party and Fushe Group, which were extremely influential in Jiangnan in the late Ming Dynasty.
Then, after truly coming into contact with these "progressive young people" who claimed to represent "righteousness in the world" and roughly understanding the true face of the Donglin gentlemen, Yu Guozhen finally despaired of this world.
Instead of handing over the country to these disgusting guys, it would be better to let the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty rule the world oshow7:
