My short video leads to ancient times, and the ancients break the defense!

【As the Qing Dynasty faced repeated defeats in the face of the West, some ministers of the Qing Dynasty began to awaken. They wanted to learn Western skills to strengthen the Qing Dynasty.】

【Learn from the barbarians and learn skills to control the barbarians】

【These people began to open factories, set up schools, and create a new army all over the country.】

【The Westernization Movement then began to rise in the Qing Dynasty, but the purpose of the Westernization Movement was to learn foreign technology rather than fundamentally change the Qing Dynasty's system. Therefore, the reforms of the Westernization Movement were only superficial reforms.】

【For the decadent Qing Dynasty, this kind of change is just a way to stop the boiling water and cannot solve the current plight of the Chinese nation.】

【But even so, some conservatives in the Qing Dynasty also blocked the Westernization Movement.】

【These people are vested interests. They are unwilling to give up their own interests. They rely on the teachings of their ancestors and want to keep the Qing Dynasty as it is.】

【They only care about their own interests and turn a deaf ear to the interests of the country and the nation.】

【Faced with the counterattack of the old aristocrats, the Westernization Movement gradually fell into a low ebb, and the national industry was divided up by Western countries.】

【It was under this circumstance that the Qing Dynasty ushered in another invasion by foreign enemies.】

【This invasion did not come from the West, but from the East】

【The Japanese island has been the territory of China since ancient times. However, because it was isolated overseas, it was gradually divided and established its own country, which was the Japanese state.】

【Before the Qing Dynasty, China had always been the suzerain state of Japan. Japan respected China very much and often sent envoys to learn advanced knowledge from China.】

【The Qing Dynasty, like the Japanese state, implemented a closed-door strategy, but the Japanese state was also bombarded with cannons by Western countries.】

【After signing the unequal treaty, Japan launched the Meiji Restoration, completely changing Japan's military, educational and economic structure in order to strengthen its country.】

【Forty years later, the Japanese thought they had become stronger, and they decided to launch a war against the Qing Dynasty in order to plunder resources and support the development of their country.】

【In this small country, the Japanese slaves who relied on China to survive before began to bully their masters.】

【The Qing Dynasty looked down upon the Japanese islands and believed that the Japanese were not their opponents at all. They looked down upon the Japanese before the war and did not have a careful understanding of them.】

【But once the war started, the Qing Dynasty was defeated again. In the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the newly built Beiyang Fleet was almost completely wiped out.】

【The Japanese landed in Korea, crossed the Yalu River, and invaded the Liaodong Peninsula.】

【The Qing Dynasty was afraid again. They sent envoys to Japan to negotiate with Japan and finally signed the Treaty of Shimonoseki.】

【This was another unequal treaty. The Qing Dynasty compensated 20 million taels of silver and ceded Taiwan to the Japanese.】

"Is it reasonable to use military expenditures from artillery shells to build a garden for Lafayette?"

"The Japanese country deserves to die, the Qing Dynasty deserves to die, and Cixi deserves to die even more!!"

"Use full power and hit Yoshino!!"

"Some people say that the War of Resistance lasted for twenty years, but the people of Anhui Province began the War of Resistance a hundred years ago!"....

Ming Dynasty, Hongwu plane

"Twenty million taels of silver!! A total of twenty million taels of silver!!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the amount of compensation written on the treaty on the light screen, and felt his blood boil.

"If we have 20 million taels of silver, we can fight from the East to the West"

"These prodigal sons of the Qing Dynasty had so much money, why couldn't they use it for the army?"

"Even if they are smashed with money, they can kill all these small Eastern and Western countries!! Zhu

Biao shook his head and sighed:

"The Qing Dynasty was rotten to the core, and the Westernization Movement was just scratching the surface and had no effect."

"The emperors and rulers of the Qing Dynasty were just a bunch of worms. They didn't care about the people or the nation at all, they only cared about their own enjoyment."

"The final source of the twenty million taels of silver is that it will fall on the people?"

"Add a little more tax, collect a few more years of tax, and suffer the people, and the money will come out."

"Huh, these people deserve to die. If they fall into our hands, we will definitely skin them, cut them into pieces, and divide them into pieces!!"

Zhu Yuanzhang now only feels extremely depressed. A depression has accumulated in his chest and he has nowhere to vent it.......

Da Qin.

Ying Zheng looked at the Japanese soldiers slaughtering Chinese people wantonly on the Liaodong Peninsula, and his heart boiled with murderous intent.

"Xu Fu, I remember that the ship I asked you to build was just to cross the Songhai Sea eastward and reach the Japanese island, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty! Xu

Fu asked with some confusion:

"May I ask Your Majesty, is there any problem with this?"

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a cold voice:

"I believe that there are no gods on the Japanese islands, only some ungrateful beasts."

"How can I get the elixir of immortality by going there?"

Xu Fu suddenly broke out in cold sweat from his forehead. Sensing Ying Zheng's murderous intent, his mind raced and he kept thinking about how to answer.

But before he could speak, Ying Zheng spoke again:

"Now that I have found the immortal, my trip to Songhai has come to an end for the time being."

"I obey the order."

Xu Fu felt slightly relieved, but Ying Zheng's next words made all the hair on his body stand up!......Dividing line......
