Chapter 5717: Technology in the future changes the world

The ancestor was a little surprised and frowned: "What, this little Japan, just a slightly larger island, dares to invade China in our great country? It's really overestimating one's own ability, it's against the will of heaven."

Liu Yu shook his head and said, "That's like when the Northern Wei Dynasty entered the north, Tuoba Si was alone when he went to the grassland. Even if he unified the southern part of the Moran and established the Dai Kingdom, he had only a few hundred tribes and millions of people, and could enter the Central Plains. Then to the Former Yan, Han and Zhao, the barbarian countries such as Han and Zhao were all built with a population of only hundreds of thousands or about one million. Even the Qin State during the Warring States Period was only the land of Guanlong. In total, it may not be as great as the Japanese Kingdom in the later generations. Our Central Plains is indeed thousands of miles away, but it must be a unified country. If the unified world is in division, war, and there are many princes or warlords, the four-barred forces like Japan have an opportunity to take advantage of it."

The ancestor said in a deep voice: "Didn't you say that China in later generations has always been a unified dynasty? Even if the barbarians took over, they learned the Zhou Li Confucianism and established a unified rule. This is equivalent to accepting the Chinese values ​​and culture of Chinese barbarians. How could they cause division and war again?"

Liu Yu sighed: "Because the last feudal dynasty was established by the barbarians from the land of Sushen in Liaodong, and you can see it as a dynasty like the Murong family. When they entered the pass, they had cruel means and carried out barbaric and cruel conquests and killings against the Han people. Although the Han people were defeated and ruled, they did not forget the blood feud of the past. They always thought about rebelling against the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty. Oh, the Ming Dynasty was a dynasty established by the Han people before. Although it was not very good, it was after all, just like the Eastern Jin Dynasty today."

The ancestor laughed: "It's nothing strange. It's like after the Zhou Dynasty destroyed Shang, the survivors of the Shang Dynasty joined forces with the rebels of the Zhou Dynasty to inflict the Three Prisons Rebellion. After Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms, Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu also launched an uprising to destroy the tyrannical Qin under the name of restoring the six kingdoms. Even if the Five Barbarians invaded China and Yongjia Rebellion, the Xiongnu Huns were also in the name of reviving the Han Dynasty, including you Liu Yu himself. Humph, when Jianyi overthrew Huan Chu, wasn't it also in the name of restoring the Jin Dynasty? This kind of thing that was to overthrow the current regime by reviving the previous generations has been repeated throughout the ages."

Liu Yu nodded: "Yes, under the rule of the Qing Dynasty, the Han people had actually been in peace for more than two hundred years. The population of the world increased to more than 400 million. If it were based on the standards of the old dynasty, it was indeed a rare prosperous era. However, in the late Qing Dynasty, they were self-confidenced, civil and military, especially the foreign Eight Banners soldiers, which were the main source of the army, were the military households of that era, which had long been corrupt. When the Western powers attacked thousands of miles, they were vulnerable, and even tens of thousands of troops killed and injured hundreds of other people, and the entire army collapsed."

The ancestor said calmly: "If the combat ability and weapon are too different, this kind of thing is normal. Just like during the Five Barbarians invading China, the Hu cavalry who had initially mastered the stirrups and had the ability to rush forward, the Jin army infantry that formed a formation at that time slaughtered the ground. In the battle of Ningping City, Shi Le destroyed tens of thousands of Jin troops, and the losses were only a thousand people. Before you attacked Nanyan, no one believed that the infantry in the south could beat the Hu cavalry in the north. Since you said that those Western powers had entered the industrial era, proficient in mechanical techniques, could create a large number of war machinery, and could even drive a large ship to the sea route, from the extreme west to the southeast coast of China. Once you landed ashore, it would be as shocked as the Tianshidao suddenly appeared in Lingnan, and the Hanyi army in Lingnan was almost unstoppable."

Liu Yu sighed: "But China is a dynasty of the Heavenly Kingdom and a great country. Since the Xia Dynasty, it has been considered the center of the world for almost three or four thousand years. Even the barbarians of the grasslands are descendants of Yan and Huang. If you want to enter the Central Plains, you must accept the values ​​of Zhou Li Confucianism, which is barely half of your own. However, these Western powers are different from us, and even look completely different from those of us. They are blonde hair and blue eyes, fair skin, or like Kunlun slaves in the South China Sea, short, fat and black skin. They are obviously alien to our Central Plains. For us, it may be that it is a pure foreign race like Xiang Guifang, and there is still a fundamental difference between them and the four barbarians such as the Northern Di and Xiqiang."

"Also, they have their own civilization system, believe in their own religion, and have their own gods. Even in culture, they do not recognize great unification and centralization. Almost all places are different from our Middle-earth culture. If they really win the world, they will bring down all our traditional culture and values ​​and make us become slaves of Western gods from then on and will not turn over."

"For example, these Western powers came from the sea and walked thousands of miles of sea route. Along the way, they carried out barbaric conquests and killings for the backward and weak nations along the way. However, after they conquered, they did not regard these conquered people. Many of them were still the same kind of uncivilized savages who ate raw meat and drank blood in ancient times. They did not raise these people as their own people, but regarded them as colonial residents who were not even slaves, and sent a few local nobles and lords to rule them, asking them to go from

It is a hard physical labor such as mining, transportation, and planting. Because I said before, these minerals are raw materials for industrialization. Nowadays, the mechanical techniques have been replaced by machines and are made of iron or steel. Therefore, a large amount of iron ore, copper ore, and the ones driving these machines are no longer human or animal power, but a tool called steam machines and internal combustion engines is used, which also requires some special minerals to provide their power."

The ancestor curled his lips and said, "It sounds interesting, Liu Yu, why don't you make these later mechanisms or technologies in this era? I heard that if these things can be reproduced in this era, wouldn't you be invincible in the world? Even the Western powers can conquer?"
