Zhang Zhidong destroyed the Venkata family and killed all the leaders of the major forces gathered at the Venkata Manor. He returned to the military camp victoriously. At this time, Zhang Zhidong finally felt proud in his heart. However, Zhang Zhidong Dong also increasingly felt that he was not capable enough and lacked a lot, and any trace of pride in his heart disappeared.
In the main tent of the Chinese Army, Zhang Zhidong made a summary of what happened and reported it to Li Zhen.
After listening to this, Li Zhen asked: "Guards of the major families, what are you going to do?"
Zhang Zhidong thought carefully and replied: "Of course, we should recruit them for our own use. In the long-term plan, we cannot use our own troops in such a big India. The best way is to use Indian troops. Treating the Indian army as our own is the best way. From now on, we must assimilate the guards of the major families and make them ours."
"good,."
After hearing this, Li Zhen couldn't help but shout "Hello".
This analysis is indeed good.
Li Zhen agreed with Zhang Zhidong's statement and agreed with this suggestion. India's territory is bordering China. Under such circumstances, if local soldiers can be used to guard this area, then it will be real. It is not easy to achieve the effect of assimilation, but it is not easy to achieve such a goal.
Li Zhen changed the topic and continued to ask: "Since recruiting soldiers is a key point to assimilate India, what do you think needs to be done to assimilate India?"
Zhang Zhidong scratched his head and thought for a moment.
After a while, Zhang Zhidong said: "Eight words, moving with emotion and understanding with reason. In history, when the Manchu barbarians entered the pass, countless people opposed it, and countless people with lofty ideals fought desperately to resist. What happened in the end? They still failed. I think it is because the Manchus controlled the scholars. We should send Chinese scholars here to teach the local people so that the people can learn from us. Such slow education will surely achieve the final result. Of course, except for In addition, deterrence by force is also needed. Without deterrence by force, it will be difficult to achieve the effect, so a two-pronged approach must be taken.¡±
Li Zhen nodded slightly, looked at Guo Songtao, and asked, "Old Guo, what do you think?"
Guo Songtao slightly bowed and saluted, and replied: "President, I think that in order to assimilate the people of India, we should follow the three chapters of Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, so that the people of India can benefit and solve the problem from the root. When Liu Bang entered the customs, the people of Daqin were still Those who love Da Qin, and even the people of other countries such as Da Qi, Da Wei, Zhao, Yan and other countries, in their hearts regard themselves as people of their own country, and do not regard themselves as members of the Han Dynasty."
"Why was Liu Bang able to unify the world and bring the people back to their hearts?"
"Because Liu Bang made a three-chapter treaty and because Liu Bang implemented benevolent policies, we should now make a three-chapter treaty to the people of India to ensure the interests of the people and fundamentally solve the problem. In fact, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was able to gain a foothold, and the scholars have merit, but the Manchu Qing Dynasty's benevolent governance of the country , is the most fundamental reason. Only when people can live a good life will they recognize you."
"If there is no benevolent government, everything will be vain."
"For example, we recruit local people to join the army, but the people regard us as tigers. Soldiers who join the army will be criticized by their families and despised by their fellow villagers. It is difficult for them to have a sense of identity. But if the people identify with us, it will be much easier. Only then can soldiers find a sense of identity in the army and be able to care for us."
Guo Songtao talked eloquently and said confidently: "On the basis of benevolent governance, coupled with the enlightenment of scholars mentioned by the governor, and moving them with emotion and understanding, they will definitely succeed. As for the British before, they were completely thinking They enslaved India without thinking of treating the Indian people as human beings, but we are different, so we must win in the end."
¡°Pah, pah, pah,,.¡±
The corners of Li Zhen¡¯s mouth rose, and his face was already covered with a smile.
He applauded Guo Songtao because Guo Songtao¡¯s words were the most correct decision.
Li Zhen immediately made a decision and ordered: "Guo Songtao, I leave it to you to appease the people. You immediately start to deal with the matter of appeasing the people of Nagaland. This is our foundation. I want to see the results within three days." .¡±
"clear."
Guo Songtao responded respectfully, and then immediately withdrew.
Li Zhen and Zhang Zhidong were the only ones left in the camp.
Li Zhen's eyes fell on Zhang Zhidong and said: "Zhang Zhidong, compared to Guo Songtao, your ability to govern is not good enough. You need to study hard. China's war is over, and external expansion is impossible. It is the eternal theme, so you must improve your abilities, learn more from Guo Songtao, and learn from each other's strengths to offset your weaknesses, do you understand?"
"clear."
Zhang Zhidong nodded heavily, his eyes serious.
Li Zhen continued: "I have received a letter from Xi Yinglong in Bangladesh. Xi Yinglong made it clear that he is willing to stand on our side in this war for India and help us unify India."
"Xi Yinglong is on our side."
Zhang Zhidong frowned, with a look of confusion on his face.
Li Zhen asked: "Do you have any questions?"
Zhang Zhidong clenched his fists and replied: "When I led my troops into India, I swept through Nagaland and Manipur, went straight to Bengal, and even approached the heart of India. But in the end, it was precisely because of Xi Yinglong and Xi Changzhen that The attack fell short. Although the British and local Indian forces also took action in that battle, it was Xi Yinglong who really defeated us, and now Xi Yinglong has taken the initiative to show his kindness to you. Could this be intentional? "
Zhang Zhidong was filled with hatred for Xi Yinglong and wished to defeat Xi Yinglong immediately.
Li Zhen shook his head and said calmly: "I believe in Xi Yinglong."
After a pause, Li Zhen continued: "Under the circumstances at that time, you led the army to advance so triumphantly, but you had actually buried countless dangers. When the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was first established, the army went straight to Beijing, the capital of the Qing Dynasty, and had no foundation, so it failed. And the same is true for you. If Xi Yinglong hadn't taken action, you might have died on the battlefield facing the British and local forces. You have no foundation. Do you think you can stand on it, just like the local Abdul family and Prasa? Are they really loyal to the De, Sharma and other families?"
After Zhang Zhidong finished listening, he fell into deep thought.
After a long time, Zhang Zhidong let out a long sigh and said, "I understand." There was a deep loneliness on his face. He was no longer the high-spirited Zhang Zhidong, but the lonely Zhang Zhidong.
Li Zhen frowned and shouted in a low voice: "Do you know what the nature of a strong man is? It is not intelligence or talent, but the ability to fight after repeated defeats. Xiang Yu is talented, Liu Bang is just a ruffian, why did Liu Bang win instead? , because Liu Bang has an indomitable and undefeated spirit. Wherever he falls, he can still get up. If you completely lose your self-confidence after falling, it only proves that I have misjudged the person."
Zhang Zhidong looked at Li Zhen, with a fire burning in his eyes.
???????????? Wrong person.
Did you see the wrong person?
After a long time, Zhang Zhidong stood up, bowed respectfully to Li Zhen, and said in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "Thank you, President, for your tolerance. I know what I should do."
"As long as you know."
Li Zhen nodded happily, he did not want Zhang Zhidong in history to disappear.
Furthermore, Li Zhen hopes that Zhang Zhidong in this life can surpass Zhang Zhidong in history.
