Chapter 554 Accepting Negotiations (6)
Qin Zheng nodded and said, "Although we cannot send troops to attack the Korean Peninsula and drive away the Japanese army, we can still help you in other aspects. Of course, before that, I have some words that must be explained to Mr. Jin first."
Seeing Qin Zheng's serious attitude at this time, Jin Changzhu couldn't help but feel trembling and said, "Speaker Qin, please tell me, what's the matter?"
Qin Zheng said: "We will do our best to help you, but whether South Korea can restore its country and independence in the end does not depend on how much help we can, nor does it depend on how hard a patriot like Mr. Jin is, but it depends on whether all Korean people have the will to restore their country and independence. If most Korean people do not have the will to restore their country and independence, then no matter how much we help you, and no matter how hard Mr. Jin and others work, it is useless."
Kim Changsoo hurriedly said: "Of course there is, it can be said that except for a small number of traitors in South Korea, the vast majority of the people hate the Japanese invaders. They only hope that one day they can drive away these invaders and restore South Korea's independence. You can rest assured."
Qin Zheng said: "I do not doubt the hatred of most Korean people towards Japan, but this hatred is based on Japan's cruel oppression and exploitation of South Korea. If Japan adopts a more gentle policy and relaxes the cruel oppression and exploitation of South Korean people, will the Korean people choose to be the obedient people of Japan or still insist on the independence and autonomy of their own nation."
Kim Changshu was stunned. Qin Zheng's problem was indeed something he had never thought about. In fact, Kim Changshu first joined Dongxuedao to resist the North Korean government at that time. Because the North Korean government at that time was similar to the Qing court, it compromised and treasoned the country from the outside and could not protect the national interests of North Korea. He was not enterprising internally and imposed heavy taxes. The upper class was corrupt and extravagant, while the lower class people lived increasingly poorly and struggled in dire straits. The Dongxue Party Uprising was a resistance among the North Korean people.
After the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, Japan controlled the Korean Peninsula and brutally suppressed the Korean royal family and the people at that time, which aroused Kim Changsoo's righteous indignation and therefore embarked on the road to anti-Japanese. However, Kim Changsoo did not think about whether he would have anti-Japanese if Japan had adopted a more gentle policy towards North Korea at that time. In Kim Changsoo's impression, Japan was always fierce, cruel and violent. But Qin Zheng's words had to arouse Kim Changsoo's thoughts.
Qin Zheng also said: "In fact, the situation in the Qing court in China is similar to the Joseon Dynasty in the past. They are both feudal autocratic countries. The people's opinions have not awakened and the people's wisdom has not been opened. The people at the bottom only know that there are kings but not countries. Therefore, in Chinese history, not only have dynasties changed many times, but also several foreign invasions have occurred, and finally the dynasty has been achieved. For the people at the bottom, this is just a change of emperors, who will still pay taxes and perform labor services themselves. As long as they can survive, who will be the emperor, Han people, Mongolians, and Manchus are the same. Six years ago, in the war of the Eight-Nation Alliance invading China, many Chinese people helped the Eight-Nation Alliance do things. The reason is very simple. The Eight-Nation Alliance will pay them wages."
Kim Changsoo sighed softly, and had to admit that Qin Zheng's words did make sense. In history, North Korea did not have as many dynasties as China, but North Korea has always existed as a vassal state of China. Therefore, when China changed dynasties, North Korea followed the change of sect leader, from Yuan Dynasty to Ming Dynasty, and then from Ming Dynasty to Qing Dynasty. Now it is Japan. As long as it can ensure that the dynasty of North Korea can continue, it will be the same if anyone becomes the sect leader. However, the Chinese dynasty basically adopted a policy of gentleness towards North Korea, and at most it was also a combination of kindness and power. Even Kim Changsoo did not think that there was anything wrong with this. Japan simply used North Korea as a colony to cruelly suppress it. But if Japan also adopted a more gentle policy towards North Korea, should South Korea now also regard Japan as its solemn state? So, should it continue to resist Japan, should it be necessary to restore South Korea's independence or let Japan change its policies?
Qin Zheng said: "I say this, but it does not deny that the Yuan and Qing dynasties in Chinese history. After all, it belongs to history. The Yuan and Qing dynasties are also part of Chinese history. Moreover, the Mongols and Manchus have now become part of the Chinese. Therefore, Mr. Jin does not have to worry about the history of North Korea regarding the Chinese dynasty as the sovereign state. It is just that the times are different now, and there are major changes that have not been seen in three thousand years. In this era of change, the old path in the past cannot be understood. If any country wants to achieve national independence and national rejuvenation, it must first awaken the people, open up the wisdom of the people, and let the people establish a national consciousness. The people are loyal to the nation-state, rather than the emperor and monarch of one surname, and then establish a constitution.
Only in this way can the country maintain true independence and autonomy in the world. Since our return, in addition to the achievements made in the military, the most important thing is to establish education, improve the knowledge level of the people, and awaken the national and national consciousness of the Chinese people. The next step is to overthrow the Qing court and establish a modern republic with constitutionalism as the core. If Mr. Jin wants to achieve independence and restoration of South Korea, he must first arouse the national and national consciousness of the Korean people. Otherwise, even if we send troops to defeat Japan in the future and help South Korea restore its country, South Korea will still not be considered independent. We hope that South Korea in the future will be our friendly neighbor, not our affiliated state.”
After listening to Qin Zheng's words, Kim Changshu also breathed a sigh of relief, feeling quite enlightened. In fact, he has read a lot of progressive books in the past few years and has some vague understanding of the national consciousness of the country and the national consciousness, but has not formed a complete system. After all, Kim Changshu is still young now and has insufficient understanding of the new era. In the old time and space, it was not until around 1920 that he had a relatively mature ideological understanding of the national consciousness and the establishment of a modern constitutional country after the restoration of South Korea. However, Qin Zheng's words undoubtedly played a catalytic role in Kim Changshu. Although Kim Changshu doesn't have many concepts of national consciousness, at least there is a clear direction.
So Jin Changshu stood up again, bowed respectfully to Qin Zheng, and said, "Thank you, Speaker Qin for your advice, which made me suddenly understand and understand the direction of my future hard work."
Qin Zheng also said: "Now Mr. Kim can establish a South Korean restoration organization in Qingdao or other places to our East China government, so as to call on South Korean aspiring people to organize them. On the one hand, we gather talents, and on the other hand, we also learn advanced knowledge of governance concepts and knowledge. In this negotiation, we will make a request to share the commercial interests of the Korean Peninsula, so that Mr. Kim can do business as a cover, sneak into the Korean Peninsula, publicize and educate the Korean people among the people, arouse their national and national consciousness, and also set up an army here. In this war, we captured many Korean soldiers, and we can bring them into South Korea's independence restoration movement through education. We can provide weapons training, etc. In the future, South Korea will inevitably have combat and prepare for the restoration of the country."
After hearing this, Kim Chang-soo nodded repeatedly and said, "Speaker Qin is really considering us well."
Qin Zheng was also very satisfied with seeing Kim Changshu's gratitude and tears, because in the future planning of the time traveler, China in the future will of course dominate Asia, and the countries on the Korean Peninsula will be an important partner country for China in the future. However, this country must be able to develop independently and provide assistance to China in the future, rather than relying on China's blood transfusion supply to survive and become China's burden.
As for controlling South Korea and not letting South Korea become an ungrateful wolf, Qin Zheng believes that it is completely controllable. On the one hand, it depends on China's own strength in the future. As long as China's own strength is strong enough, South Korea will naturally not betray it easily. On the other hand, it is to carry out China's values and ideas among South Korean elites, and it is not very difficult to make South Korean elites agree with Chinese values. After all, South Korea now has a strong sense of identity with Chinese civilization, and the universal values of the West have not yet formed a complete system, and the West does not fully grasp the global voice. Therefore, as long as we start from now on, we will not only cultivate them into elites, but also make them fully recognize China's values. Then, after South Korea recovers its country in the future, it will also become a reliable ally of China.
Qin Zheng said again: "We will send a dedicated person to deal with your affairs in Hoi'an. We will arrange for you to meet tomorrow. In this way, if you have any needs, there will be a dedicated person to connect with you."
Of course, Kim Chang-soo's team needs to be responsible for it, and the personnel have been arranged long ago, just a few Koreans in the Time Travel Group. Among the Time Travel staff, there are 7 Koreans, 4 men and 3 women, all equipment suppliers, business personnel, technical personnel and translators. However, although it has been 6 years since this era, these seven Koreans are not doing well, and are not as good as several European foreigners in the Time Travel Group. Some of these foreigners have become technical backbones, and others are also working in the Foreign Affairs Commission. Overall, they are also
There are more than the top and the bottom. There are several Taiwanese. Although there are betrayers like Gao Senhang, the others have also created their own industries, which is not satisfactory. Only these 7 Koreans, except for two married to other time travelers and working together to work together, the other five have no technical ability to show off, and the other two have different ideas and concepts, so they are difficult to accommodate the large group of time travelers and can only be marginalized. The East China government can only arrange idle jobs for them, at least they have something to do.
