Chapter 1492 Fengtian
Liu Ruguo really didn't have the idea of ​​joining the regular army, and he never thought he would join the regular army.

The army he commanded, the Suncheon Anmin Rebel Army, did not have the slightest intention to become a regular army.

If this is in Daming, then there is no doubt that this is a rebellion.

But this happened overseas, everyone's definition of this is very vague, even Liu Ruguo himself doesn't know what the Shuntian Anmin Rebellion Army is.

But this does not mean that he is anti-Ming, or anti-Oriental military government, no.

Because Liu Ruguo is not a modern educated person.

The "modern education" here refers to the private schools, rural schools, social studies, lecture schools, lecture halls, and Beiyang schools in the ten years of Longqing and Wanli. In short, it is all the formal education of Ming Dynasty in this era.

Liu Ruguo was not among them, he was educated in the Jiajing year.

Nowadays, even the teacher of a private school will talk about overseas. Even if the teacher of the private school doesn't understand it very well, the teaching materials have been distributed.

All formal channels of education, as long as teachers follow the scriptures, students can understand a common sense - there are many countries in this world.

In fact, there are many countries in this world. It is not a new knowledge point. Everyone knows that there are many countries in this world. North Korea, Luzon, and Annan are all countries.

However, before the emergence of modern education, people did not think that China was one of these countries.

The Greater China Civilization Circle is the place where national consciousness first appeared, but this national consciousness is somewhat different from the national consciousness of later generations in the 21th, [-]th, [-]th, and [-]st centuries.

In this era of international society, it is widely recognized that there are many countries in the world, Annan, North Korea, and Japan are all countries, and the citizens also have their own national consciousness. They all know that I am from Annan and that I am from North Korea.

But China is different.

For a person who grew up in the Central Plains, regardless of whether he was from the Han Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Song Dynasty, Yuan Dynasty, Ming Dynasty, or Qing Dynasty, it would be a great shame to say that his motherland would become a vassal state of another country.

People simply cannot accept it, not even if a whole generation has shed blood and died for it.

But in fact, in all ages of the world, there are only a few countries with this kind of collective consciousness. Only when it is the most powerful one in the entire contact circle can it produce this kind of consciousness.

The pride of a big country.

This kind of awareness is a double-edged sword, not everything is good, and many times this kind of mentality is the beginning of weakness.

Especially for the magical land of the Central Plains Dynasty, where the Gongyang School was born, there are even more disadvantages.

The Gongyang School is gone, but everyone in the later generations knows that the highest honor of Chinese warriors is Fenglangjuxu.

For a country that has implemented this kind of collective consciousness for more than a thousand years since the Great Reunification, it has strong self-confidence from the people in the countryside to the central court, but its diplomatic awareness is very weak.

So weak that they never feel like they're being diplomatic.

The Chinese Empire believes that there is only one China in the world. Of course, other countries are also countries, and the king is also a king, but there is only one country in the world.

What is the difference between those kings outside and King Lu?

Naturally, there is still a difference, after all, he is not as noble as King Lu.

Essentially, in their eyes, all the countries in the known world are barbarians, and if the emperor is happy, they can get rid of the barbarians with a canonization.

Not being a barbarian has many advantages, such as the boiled meat in the skin of the prairie tribes in the pre-Alta era, and the stewed meat in the iron pot of the prairie tribes in the post-Alta era.

Let the Kingdom of the Son of Heaven admit that it is not a barbarian, there is only one channel, tribute.

Either it looks cute and fun, and the emperor is happy to allow it to pay tribute; or it is not cute and not fun, but it is quite strong, so you have to show your confidence and understand the dignity.

There is almost no other way. Among the known countries in this era, not paying tribute to the Central Plains Dynasty is called self-exclusion from the international community.

Until the emergence of modern education dominated by Chen Mu, people's known world became wider and wider, and they gradually understood that in many countries in the world, some places regard the Celestial Dynasty as they do.

Those who are eager to win will feel that this country dares to put itself on a par with the Celestial Dynasty and needs to fight.

As for the calm people, it is easy to accept that there is a country thousands of miles away that thinks that they are the same as the Celestial Dynasty, and they just sneer contemptuously.

Liu Ruguo is not one of the two. He is a person educated in the past, unlike the new Beiyang Banner Army. In his eyes, there is only one emperor in this world, and he never feels that he is rebelling.

From a psychological point of view, he does not want to become a regular army, nor does he want to mix with officials.

From a practical point of view, he believes that becoming a regular army will cause a lot of trouble, which means that he will have to accept more transfer orders and more commands, and he will not be free.

Liu Ruguo didn't want to be a general, his thoughts were all on the flag, to follow the sky and calm the people.

The heart of the people is the heart of heaven.

The new Beiyang Banner Army knows that there are many countries with equal status in the world, so when looking at friends and enemies, they will first divide them by country. There is discrimination, but they are more inclined to conquer wars against the entire country.

Liu Ruguo of the old school is different. He thinks that there is only the Celestial Dynasty in the world, and the Queen is no different from the Wugang King of Chu Fan who was sent to Western India by Emperor Wanli for lewdness and immorality a few years ago.

The way Liu Ruguo distinguishes between friends and foes is to look at class first, which is the main reason why he doesn't want to stand with the regular army.

The government-made blunderbuss and government-made cannons are the things he misses the most.

It would be great news if he could even get a few hundred of the government-made waist knives.

The rebel army overseas is like a side ball. There are such troops all over the world. Everyone has channels to buy old ordnance. The key depends on how brave the chief officer is.

Relatively speaking, both Ying Ming and Tang Xianzu are the timid ones.

But soon, someone strengthened their courage.

The supply ship from the Eastern Military Mansion docked again, and hundreds of official documents and letters from the Military Mansion were sent to the London Mansion, two of which were delivered to Liu Ruguo.

A letter from Emperor Wanli from the other side of the distant ocean, in recognition of Liu Ruguo's assistance in raising Zhu Xiaoen's army in the Alan Kingdom, he was awarded General Wulue, and he was allowed to control the militia and guard the whole area.

The second letter came from Chen Mu, Minister of the East, or the same official uniform, armor, waist knife, handgun, etc.

Chen Mu said in the letter that the emperor did not know that he was in England when the official position was conferred, so his official position was still mainly given to Alan Zhenfu and General Wulue by the emperor, and he was transferred to England to exercise power.

The arrival of these two letters marked that Liu Ruguo's troops were recognized by the imperial court, and Liu Ruguo also readily accepted the appointment from the imperial court.

Bless God.

No one can refuse such an edict with a great sense of sacred mission.

He just wanted to lead a group of dirty and degrading mud legs in the mouth of the nobles, and beat the nobles who enslaved them to pieces-everyone has land and crops, and everyone has clothes to wear.
