There is still a big difference between the Han people in this world and the Han people in the history of Richard in the past life of Earth, because the Han people in this world have always been very strong and have cultivated strong national confidence, which is commonly known as extreme nationalism...

Of course, the Han people in this world do not think they are extreme, but take themselves as superior nations for granted.

People yearn for the strong. The powerfulness of the huge empire established by the Han people naturally envied those barbarians and Hu people who were not Han people but had no national concept. With the conquest of the Han people, these people took the initiative to integrate with the Han people because of their appearance.

The Han court also strongly supported this and expanded its population.

There is no specific ethnic division in this era. Most people are 'judging people by their appearance'. People with similar appearances, even if they have different writing and language, as long as they are willing to surrender, they can become people in their own country.

Although there are discrimination chains such as regional black, this discrimination chain is not serious. Under the unified language and writing education, generations have almost been integrated.

After all, there is no Internet in this era, and it is difficult for people who do not live in the same place to have intersections, so naturally there is no way to talk about so-called discrimination.

Foreign households are either immigrants or the families of officers and soldiers, and will be taken care of by the imperial government and will naturally not be discriminated against. In addition, the government's mandatory national integration policy, the expansion of the Han ethnic group in this world is very effective.

During the Tang Dynasty, the expansion reached its peak in the entire East Asia. Except for the tropical rainforests in Southeast Asia that were really unavailable, almost all East Asian yellow people in other places were assimilated into Han people.

The reason why the people in the Three Hans and the Jurchens in the northeastern mountains and forests were not completely assimilated was mainly because the place was too remote and was wilderness in the eyes of the Han people, so the assimilation was very weak.

Even so, the Jurchens and the people of the Three Hans also accepted Chinese and Han languages, but the national cultural characteristics were not completely eliminated. If the Tang Kingdom could exist for another hundred years, even the people in such wilderness lands would be assimilated into Han people.

Of course, the Han people only assimilated with their own appearance, and those who are not as good as their own, are basically not qualified to be assimilated...

Therefore, with the expansion of the Tang Dynasty, the Seme people in East Asia were either slaughtered or migrated to the Western Regions where the Seme people lived. The entire area that had been developed in the East Asia continent was almost assimilated by the Han culture.

This created an extremely favorable environment for Richard to rise into East Asia later!

Because Richard himself was a Han Chinese, the conquest of the Ming Dynasty was a normal dynasty change in the eyes of ordinary people, rather than an invasion of foreign races. Most of the time, the court fought against the court, and the people lived their own. Even if they were forced to enlist in the army, they were still the kind of young and strong militia that was about to collapse...

Even if you are motivated by money, your morale will not be too high.

This is essentially different from fighting against green skin.

Otherwise, no matter how powerful the thousand undead legions were, Richard would not have defeated more than 100,000 Tang Dynasty royal army!

After the Jurchens fled to the Japanese archipelago, there were only two countries left in the entire East Asian continent, the Southern Song Dynasty and the Northern Ming Dynasty!

Of course, this is a folk name. Although most of the northern part of East Asia is occupied by green skin, and the Ming Dynasty only owns the northwest region, green skin is not a human being, so naturally it will not be included in East Asia human beings. The folk habitually call the Ming Dynasty the Northern Ming Dynasty.

As a large number of Tang survivors were accepted by the Southern Song Dynasty, the people of the Song Dynasty gradually learned about the policy of equal land debt exemption adopted by the Northern Ming Dynasty.

This caused great panic among the entire Southern Song Dynasty’s landlords and gentry class!

Song Taizu eliminated the local clan forces of the Southern Song Dynasty, but supported the landlord and gentry class. It can be said that Song Taizu now represents the interests of the landlord and gentry class.

The landlord and gentry class of the Southern Song Dynasty also truly supported Song Taizu!

There are two reasons why they support it.

The first is that when Song Taizu cleaned up local family members, the landlords and gentry class ate a lot.

Second, the Beiming policy of equal-field debt exemption violated the fundamental interests of the landlord and gentry class!

Although Song Taizu did not feel that he represented the interests of the landlord and gentry class, the landlord and gentry class of the Southern Song Dynasty took the initiative to support Song Taizu.

This created the illusion of the arrival of all people for the people. As an emperor, he naturally could not reach the lowest level of civilians, so many times the overall attitude of the landlord and gentry class of feudal dynasties represented the "people's expectations".

At least in the eyes of the rulers.

This kind of desire brought great political capital to Song Taizu. Whether it was military expansion or economic development, it received strong support from the private landlords and gentry class, because they knew that if they wanted to protect their land and the right to lend, they had to hold Song Taizu's thick legs tightly!

In addition, influenced by the former Tang landlords' armed forces, many of the landlords and gentry classes in the Southern Song Dynasty also took the initiative to send their children to join the army.

This is mainly because Song Taizu did not allow landlords and gentry to form group training on their own. The Southern Song Dynasty was a newly established country with a vigorous vitality. Song Taizu was born in a general and had always held military power. Of course, he did not allow landlord armed group training on his own territory that was too big to lose!

Song Taizu suppressed local clans at the beginning in order to take all the military power of the entire Song State into his own hands!

It was the highly centralized military force of Song Taizu that allowed the Southern Song army to efficiently mobilize supplies and concentrate troops to attack the enemy in war.

At least in the generation of Taizu of Song, the Southern Song Dynasty had completed the path of centralization, but the power of Taizu of Song came from his repeated victory and the personal prestige of the founding emperor, rather than given by the centralized system.

Once Song Taizu dies, his descendants will not have the same rights as Song Taizu.

However, Song Taizu is now in middle age, and he serves delicious food and drink all day long, enjoying the care of top famous doctors of this era. It is basically no problem to live for more than ten years.

The biggest goal of Song Taizu was to destroy the Northern Ming in his lifetime, create a peaceful and stable unification dynasty for his descendants, and then promote the political line of using literature to control the military. In this way, military officers could no longer hold power, and naturally there was no possibility of betrayal...

If there are no foreign enemies, using literature to control the military is indeed a good way to avoid separatist rule in the feudal states.

However, Song Taizu's idea was very good, but it was difficult to implement it, especially when the Tufan people and the Jurchen people were one after another!

He can't go find Green Skin to form an alliance against the Ming army together...
