The ancestor said coldly: "In my opinion, it is no different. The so-called China and China did not have these places from the beginning. At least during the Shang Dynasty, most of the areas you said to have lost to the hands of the barbarians were not the homeland of China, Bingzhou, Youzhou, Jizhou, and Qingzhou, which were all barbaric lands at that time. Even Guanzhong was regarded as a foreign land. Now it is regarded as the traditional core area of ​​the Han people in the north. It was a territory that was seized after thousands of years of expansion and consolidation and fighting countless wars. You can seize the Han people, and others can do the same."

Liu Yu curled his lips and said, "In ancient times, tribes in the world lived in a row with water and plants, nomadic people around the world, and had no fixed place to live, and there was no so-called concept of territory. However, after the Zhou Dynasty, the Chinese clan gradually formed, and the tribes and city-states that were wandering around in the past became a fixed country with farming as the main force. This is how the formation of the Chinese clan came from. The eight hundred years of history of the Zhou Dynasty was the process of the Chinese clan expanding everywhere with the Yellow River Basin as the core, turning those

The territory that originally belonged to the alien race became the inherent territory of China, allowing the conquered alien race to admire China and were willing to take the initiative to surrender, integrate, and become a member of the new Chinese clan. By the end of the Zhou Dynasty, the Qin Dynasty rose and finally formed a unified and centralized empire. This is also the standard for the formal formation of our Chinese clan. Although the Qin Dynasty was short-lived, it officially became the predecessor of the later Han Dynasty. The name of the Han nationality was also the name and name of our descendants of Yan and Huang in later generations."

"In other words, since the Qin Dynasty, we have been a unified country with basically formed territory. At this time, the four barbarians invaded and occupied the Central Plains within our Great Wall. That is, foreign races attacked, and the Han people in the entire Central Plains would fight back. Even the Eight Kings Rebellion in the late Western Jin Dynasty and the north fell, the people in the world also believed that the Eastern Jin Dynasty was the right way and the south was the crossing of the south. We believed that the Eastern Jin Dynasty was the hope of the Han people. Isn't this the most clear ethnic identity and national identity?"

The ancestor sneered: "No matter how much you say a flower, you cannot change the principle that the strong are respected and the strong are prey on the weak. Just like Japan rose up as the Eastern powers. If they invade China and defeat the Qing Dynasty, according to the Chinese tradition, there will be countless people in the Central Plains who are willing to surrender to them, or even take over for their predecessors, as pawns. This is called the knowledgeable people of the times as heroes!"

Liu Yu laughed: "Old devil, this time you are wrong and this is not the case. In later generations, through this nation and country's thoughts, the wisdom of the people in the world gradually became clear, and the so-called modern nation-state has been established. It is believed that with the main nation as the core, including sovereign states of multiple ethnic minorities, these countries are established to serve the whole people, not to serve a certain emperor, king, not herders on behalf of heaven, but to protect themselves in the form of a state. Therefore, only one's own country can guarantee its fundamental interests. It has long been regarded as a shameless act by all the people, and there is no saying that those who know the times are heroes."

The ancestor narrowed his eyes slightly: "I don't believe it, I don't believe that there will be such a saying that transcends human nature in the future. To put it bluntly, it is because I can't beat it. If I can beat it, who would be willing to be a pawn of the foreign race? But if I can't beat it, I have to insist on fighting until the whole nation is destroyed?"

Liu Yu said calmly: "That's because later generations had some declarations on human rights, which became the law that the world generally must follow. Although Western powers were hypocritical, no matter what, when the king's tyranny was overthrown, they put up a banner to fight for the people and the people. After successfully seizing power, they also needed to use the interests of the people to speak out for elections. Although most of them were just verbal efforts, some were real changes, such as stipulating the rights and interests of civilians. In war, they must not massacre cities and loot the people like before. The soldiers captured and surrendered on both sides of the war could no longer be killed like before, Jingguan, etc. In short, under the order of the feudal era, blood flowed into a river and corpses were buried for thousands of miles, and they would no longer be allowed."

The ancestor frowned: "How is this possible? War is a process of inhumanity and release animal nature. If you don't let kill it, then if you don't let rob it, what else can you fight?"

Liu Yu laughed: "So this is the progress of later generations. Just like in the ancient times before, people in the world took it for granted to eat people for granted. During the Xia and Shang dynasties, people in the world believed that it was appropriate for people to sacrifice people for sacrifice. But these things were regarded as unforgivable atrocities in this era, such as acts of beasts. Those atrocities in wars were the same in later generations. People's wisdom awakened and believed that civil wars were not allowed. When fighting foreign wars, they must abide by the laws of war, massacre of cities, looting, and abuse of prisoners, which were not tolerated by the world at that time."

The ancestor sneered: "Well, didn't you say that when the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, there were all kinds of iron-blooded means and violent atrocities? Why? At this time, will they also abide by the laws of war formulated by these Western powers? Even if it was the war you mentioned to quell the rebellion, would the Qing army become benevolent and civilized?"

Liu Yu hesitated for a moment and shook his head and said, "No, the Qing Dynasty's suppression of rebellion was still based on the values ​​and laws of the Central Plains. The people who captured the local people as rebels were regarded as accomplices of the rebels. After the city was broken, they would slaughter and plunder for several days as punishment. The rebels treated the towns controlled by the Qing Dynasty almost the same. If they insisted on the city and did not surrender, they would be said to be a lackey of the Qing demons and would kill them all. Even under the bloody slaughter of these two sides, the Central Plains had a total of 100 million people, which was only more than ten years."

The ancestor took a breath: "So many died in more than ten years? So powerful. However, the Qing Dynasty did not accept the laws of war stipulated by these Western powers. I believe that the Eastern Japan would not accept it either. They have been cruel and easy to kill since ancient times, and there should not be any changes in that era."
