The idea of white supremacy rooted in European and American society is the root cause of discrimination against Chinese people.
In July 1878, the Manchu Qing government proposed to the United States
When young children stationed in the United States were sent to study at West Point Military Academy and the Naval Academy, their applications were rejected by the U.S. government. When Chinese children evacuated and returned to China in 1881, the first batch of Japanese military cadets studying in the United States had already graduated from the Naval Academy.
In May 1879, the U.S. Congress submitted a draft of the "Chinese Exclusion Act", which proposed limiting the number of Chinese workers in the United States and repatriating students sent by the Manchu and Han Dynasties to the United States.
Stimulated by the growing anti-Chinese wave in American society and the incident of young children studying in the United States cutting off their braids without authorization and refusing to return to the country,
Wu Jiashan, the supervisor of young children studying abroad, repeatedly reported to the Qing government that Chen Lanbin's supervision was unfavorable and that he deliberately allowed children studying in the United States to become rebellious overseas. At the same time, he proposed to cancel the program for young children studying in the United States and repatriate Chen Lanbin and the children studying in the United States.
Returned to the country and convicted...
Corruption and power-grabbing were very common in the Manchu and Qing official circles. Senior Han officials represented by Li Hongzhang used the establishment of Westernization to make money, while Cixi and the die-hard farmers of the Eight Banners of Manchu and Mongolia politically suppressed the influence of Han officials in vain attempts.
The local administrative powers lost during the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom Movement were restored to the central court.
Manchu and Han bureaucracies, officials, and business factions competed and disrupted each other. Even as far away as the United States, complex factional battles were inevitable among the officials who managed the affairs of young children studying in the United States.
Wu Jiashan used the incident of a young boy studying in the United States to leave without authorization to bring down Chen Lanbin, Rong Hong and other Westernization officials. As a means of counterattack and response, Chen Lanbin contacted domestic Westernization leaders to write a letter of defense.
The other side sent the newly recruited staff member Huang Feihong to the Han Dynasty, preparing to use the tacit understanding reached between the two parties earlier on the issue of Chinese workers in the United States to successfully solve this problem.
In the evening, the sun set halfway up the mountainside, and the sky gradually darkened.
"Sir, there is an inn on the roadside. Would you like to rest at the inn tonight?"
On the outskirts of the old city of Chang'an (Cordoba), a young groom respectfully asked for instructions.
"Martial law in the city has not been lifted yet. The city gates will be closed after seven o'clock in the evening. It is getting late now. Let's rest at an inn outside the city for one night and then enter the city tomorrow morning."
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment with Mr. Huang. I will go to the inn to book some rooms."
The two young men jumped out of the carriage and ran nimbly to the inn on the roadside.
The main building of the inn is an old-style Spanish building with a total of 20 rooms on five floors and four floors. The innkeeper was a small businessman who traveled around the streets in Borneo seven or eight years ago. Less than three years after he moved to Han, South America, he married
A female weaver whose hometown was in the Su-Chang area became a daughter-in-law. Now her family of four moved to Chang'an City and bought a small old building for sale by the government to start a business of delivering goods.
Chang'an City was designated as the new capital, and government agencies and colleges and universities relocated from the new capital city and various places continued to arrive.
For example, the inn where Zhang Zhenxun and his party stayed has been very busy in the past month or so. Every evening, most of the rooms in the inn are filled with guests.
After spending seven or eight taels of scattered silver, we exchanged two rooms with a group of merchants. After another 20 minutes of busy work, Zhang Zhenxun, Huang Feihong and more than ten people finally settled in.
At the end of the moon, Zhang Zhenxun and the housekeeper and guards he brought had already laid down to rest, but Huang Feihong, who was burdened with a heavy responsibility, could not fall asleep.
Huang Feihong was born in July 1856. His original name was Huang Xixiang, his courtesy name was Dayun, his nickname was Feihong, and his childhood name was Feixiong. He was born in Foshan, Guangdong, and was originally from Xuluzhou Village, Xiqiao Ridge, Nanhai County.
His father, Huang Qiying, was one of the "Ten Tigers of Guangdong" in the late Qing Dynasty and was highly skilled in martial arts. However, Huang Qiying's family was poor and poor, so he had to rely on performing arts to make ends meet. Huang Feihong started learning martial arts from his father at the age of three and was very skilled in martial arts, but Huang Qiying did not want his son to be like him. Like himself, he relied on martial arts to make a living and lived a life of poverty. Instead, he hoped that he could one day obtain fame, so he gave Huang Feihong the savings from performing arts to study. However, Huang Feihong had no interest in studying, and instead was interested in his father. He was particularly interested in the martial arts taught to him, and even skipped school to secretly watch his father perform on the roadside. Huang Feihong was very talented in martial arts, and he could often learn many moves once. When Huang Feihong was seven or eight years old, he officially He began to follow his father into the world and make a living by performing arts.
In 1872, he moved to Guangzhou, and the workers of the Copper and Railway Co., Ltd. raised funds to set up a martial arts hall for him in Qifu Shuijiao. He began to teach martial arts to the workers of the Copper and Railway Co., Ltd. and ended his martial arts career. In 1877, Huang Feihong set up another martial arts hall in Xiguan, Guangzhou. He accepted apprentices, taught skills, and treated patients near Huilan Bridge. He became famous and was recommended by officials of the Qing court to Chen Lanbin, the supervisor of young children studying in the United States.
At that time, his father Huang Linying was still alive, and Huang Feihong, who was only 23 or 24 years old, did not lose his enterprising spirit, so under Huang Linying's persuasion, he set off for the United States in the summer of 1878.
One after another, characters in the late Qing Dynasty had their life experiences and destiny changed due to subtle changes in history.
Huang Feihong, Chen Shangfa and Chen Zongbai, who served in the National Defense Forces, are brothers who have known each other for a long time. Before going to Vietnam, the Chen brothers studied martial arts with Huang Linying for several years.
Nearly ten years after 1870, the Chen brothers failed to participate in the peasant army uprising, and since then they have lost contact with Huang Feihong and his son.
After entering the United States and coming into contact with the outside world that was closed by the Qing government, Huang Feihong learned from the Chinese workers in the United States and the Chinese Commercial Office in the United States that in just eleven or twelve years, earth-shaking changes had taken place in the South American continent, and the continent had disappeared. The peasant rebel armies re-established Han-dominated states in South America.
Chen Shangfa, Chen Zongbai, Liu Yongfu, and several people who had been in contact with them were recruited by the South American Han Kingdom, and Nanyang Chinese businessmen with strong financial resources such as Zhang Zhenxun and Hu Yaji also tended to work for the South American Han Kingdom.
A day in the cave means a thousand years in the world.
After just staying outside the Far East for more than a year, Huang Feihong felt that a long time had passed. The belief in being loyal to the imperial court, practicing martial arts, strengthening oneself, saving the country, and bringing glory to the country that he had formed in his first twenty years of life gradually collapsed.
So what if one person is against three, one person is against five, one person is against ten, or even one person is against one hundred. Can the strength of personal force alone remove the insulting label of the Sick Man of East Asia?
In terms of martial arts, Wang Wu and Yan Zi Li are all famous martial arts masters. However, in actual war, even Wang Wu and Li San combined may not be able to defeat the small troops of the regular class units of the National Defense Force.
The general trend of history is so majestic that personal bravery is extremely small in the general trend of history. Living in the United States for more than a year, Huang Feihong often visited the Chinese labor settlements in San Francisco, Los Angeles and other places, using his own medical skills to help local Chinese people treat their illnesses.
Huang Feihong's actions in treating patients of Chinese laborers won him the respect of local Chinese laborers. Even Wang Youtian, the commercial representative of Han Dynasty in the United States, heard about his reputation and visited him personally, inviting him to join the Han Kingdom and serve the Han government.
Huang Feihong's father and relatives are all in mainland China, and he has a conservative character cultivated by his father's teachings. Therefore, Huang Feihong declined Wang Youtian's invitation and continued to stay with Chen Lanbin, assisting him in handling the health and security of young children studying in the United States.
…………
At midnight, there are still many people in Chang'an City who can't sleep like Huang Feihong.
There were many things to do after the war. Even if most of the affairs could be handed over to the officials and generals below, there were still many things that required Li Mingyuan's personal decision-making.
The selection of new capital sites, administrative agencies, the transfer of army and naval academies, and the relocation and merger of colleges and universities are all being implemented seriously. There are too many problems that need to be solved.
In accordance with government administrative orders, the University of Buenos Aires, the University of Rosario, and the University of Cordoba, three local institutions of higher learning in Argentina that have been established for more than a century, need to cooperate with Xinjing University, the Central Polytechnic University, and the University of Medicine.
, split and reorganized into five key universities.
The Buenos Aires School of Medicine and the University of Medicine merged and moved to Chang'an, reorganized into the National Medical University.
Buenos Aires Water Conservancy and Ministry of Agriculture were merged into Xinjing University and reorganized into National University of Nanhua.
The remaining main parts of the University of Cordoba, the University of Rosario and the University of Buenos Aires were renamed Chang'an University, Imperial College, and Songjiang University.
The decree to reorganize five higher education institutions was promulgated two weeks ago. However, except for Xinjing University and the Medical University, which followed the central government's order to start the merger and reorganization process, the three local higher education institutions in Argentina all obeyed the orders and resisted the reorganization either openly or covertly.
A thick investigative report was placed on the table in the study room, and what was recorded in the notebook was that a total of nine white teachers from colleges and universities worked in tandem to try to sabotage the plans for the reorganization of colleges and universities.
"Six presidents of colleges and universities, eleven college directors, forty-five college lecturers..."
I turned over the pages of the list and looked at the Western names of famous local scholars on the record book.
Li Mingyuan's face gradually turned cold.
"Go and order the internal security forces to carry out the order. Arrest all the people on the list and don't let anyone go!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"......
A burst of telegrams sounded in the silent city of Chang'an, and then orders were passed through wires to the troops stationed across Argentina...
The new moon is like a scimitar, and tonight's night is destined to be covered with a bloody curtain.
