Although defeated, Gintoki, Katsura, and Takasugi Shinsuke are still opponents, and they still have to continue fighting. History will not end. The fall of the curtain, the abolition of feudal lords and the establishment of prefectures, external expansion...all kinds of things will continue.
The demise of Bushido is inevitable because the social structure is different. But class will not disappear because the fall of the feudal clan and the establishment of prefectures are conflicts between samurai and samurai and have nothing to do with the common people.
Just like in Ah Q's novels, the common people were just indifferent spectators and did not participate in the revolution. The main force of the revolution was the lower class scholar-officials like Ah Q. Their revolution was carried out within the scholar-officials, and it was a complete change of the soup without changing the medicine.
The same goes for samurai. A samurai from a poor family fights against a superior samurai. After winning the battle, he is still a samurai. Even a samurai from a poor family who has climbed to the top will not hesitate to betray other poor families. And because of the failure of external expansion, the common people and poor families have lost their way to rise, and the class has become
It won't change anymore.
The common people were still spectators, while the samurai became social animals, and the feudal lords became chaebols and parliamentarians.
Du Lan said that Gui didn't know if it was possible. Will the Shinsengumi awaken? Can they carry out a revolution from the bottom up to eliminate the nobles and superior samurai? To be honest, it is difficult, because they are also poor samurai, and it is difficult to completely overthrow them.
Class society. After all, samurai are not at the bottom of the class. If they really overthrow the class completely, they will build a new society together with the people.
This will encounter the same problem as the "Seven Samurai" movie. The samurai and the common people do not trust each other. The samurai do not want to be cannon fodder to protect the common people and do not believe in the power of the common people.
Even if there are a few samurai who believe it, the ratio is simply not enough. As for the students of Songyang, their education is already very liberal. As a result, Gintoki is the only one who truly believes in the people, and the other students do not trust the people.
After breaking down the classes, it is natural to let the common people blend in. So how can the samurai trust the common people and give up their status?
It’s difficult, it’s too difficult. Without great wisdom, great perseverance, and great courage, it’s impossible to do it.
In particular, the island country does not even have a good integration of nobles and samurai. It still has a nine-level system and no intermarriage. Therefore, in samurai movies, there are often poor samurai who elope with aristocratic ladies and are then hunted down.
If the protagonist in the movie is a samurai from a poor family, then the heroine is usually the daughter of an innkeeper, shop, hotel, or restaurant, or the daughter of an evil force, the daughter of a poor family, or a prostitute, or at most a little girl.
The daughter of a feudal lord is unlikely to be the daughter of a great noble.
There is no such story in the Central Plains, where the daughter of a great nobleman met a poor scholar, and then the poor scholar worked as a farmer and went to the emperor's hall at night, creating a story of love between a man and his concubine. Although the daughter of a great nobleman and the poor scholar looked fake,
But there is such a story, there is such a soil, and the poor family and the nobles broke through the boundary of not intermarriage between common people and common people.
Some people say that those were samurai movies from the past, but the two-dimensional world is different now. In the two-dimensional world, there will be a blond chaebol lady who can also fall in love with the male protagonist.
Childhood sweethearts, sports girls, literary girls, chaebol ladies, etc. surround the male protagonist, but generally speaking, if the protagonist is the protagonist, he will still choose his childhood sweetheart.
Of course, there is also a chaebol lady who wins, but the price is that she has to give up her identity.
If you want the chaebol lady to continue to be a chaebol, then the male protagonist's bloodline will have to change. His family must be a lost and famous family.
For example, in "Naruto", Uzumaki Naruto's mother's lineage can be traced directly back to ancient times, so he and Hinata are a perfect match, because the Hyuga family's lineage can also be traced back to ancient times. Haruno Sakura is paired with Sasuke because Sasuke has given up on the Uchiha family.
In terms of status, just marry a commoner.
In "Bleach", Ichito and Inoue, Rukia and Renji are all well-matched. Although Rukia is the adopted daughter of the Kuchiki family, she is only an adopted daughter. Ichito is a branch of a noble family and has Quincy blood.
, the bloodline is very mixed, and it is not recognized by the nobles.
Luffy has never really liked anyone in "One Piece", so we don't know if there will be a marriage in the end. If there is, it will probably be a woman with ancient blood.
There are also many works in which the male protagonist and the chaebol lady have a crush on each other, but they don't get together. At most, they just admire each other.
In short, classes have not been broken down, and those who do not intermarry between classes must at least have similar bloodlines before they can get married.
The eldest lady and the poor scholar just get married directly. Of course, generally speaking, the ending is set for the poor scholar to be the top scholar, so that they are well-matched, but at least it is possible for the poor scholar to do it. It does not mean that he is not allowed to marry the eldest daughter as soon as he is born.
The lady is getting married.
The bloodline determines whether one is worthy or not, and the number one scholar determines whether one is capable or not.
Theoretically speaking, all good candidates are eligible to take the exam, but whether they can pass the exam depends on one's financial resources and ability. There is still a threshold for the imperial examination. At least you have to be a rich peasant to have the money to fake the exam. Then whether you can pass the exam,
It just depends on your ability.
Scholar-officials did not refuse to allow capable people from good backgrounds to enter their ranks. Later, in order to break up the scholar-official class, the transformation of scholar-officials was not very smooth, but it went on.
There are few countries that have truly broken down classes, and there are many countries that have not broken down classes. After all, most countries still have feudal systems. It can be said that the essence of capitalism is feudalism.
The traditional enfeoffment system is land enfeoffment, with land as the boundary. Capitalist enfeoffment uses patents as the boundary, and patents mean that I can use them, but you can't.
Sometimes patents are misappropriated, just like someone crossing the border to plant someone else's fields.
Enfeoffment will arrange seats according to the amount of land, while capitalism arranges seats based on the amount of capital. Many capital aristocrats were originally land aristocrats, so the old rules of the game have not disappeared at all, but have only become more complicated.
Marriage and sophistication are also indispensable, and capitalists like this are actually similar to Duke Huan of Qi, who respected the king and rejected the barbarians. He tried to unite the domestic capitalists by establishing an enemy. But obviously he was not strong enough and failed to succeed.
Exaggerating the strength of the barbarians will not change, because only in this way can everyone be united. Once there are no enemies, the capitalists will break up. But the problem is that even if the barbarians are strong, many capitalists do not want to unite. After all, unity is not good for them.
.
On the contrary, it is more beneficial to cooperate with the barbarians. For example, King You of Zhou wanted to suppress the State of Shen, but the State of Shen united with the Quan Rong and Li Ying Wai to directly kill King You of Zhou.
Therefore, no matter how exaggerated the barbarians are, there is no way to truly unite the various forces. It doesn't matter whether the barbarians are strong or not. What matters is actually internal control.
Therefore, the purpose of the American capitalists is not to target the barbarians, but to target their own internal political opponents and allies. These are the most important goals. This is also a way of playing the feudal system. Don't think that the feudal princes will really unite to fight against the barbarians. There is no such thing
necessary.
Unless the barbarian is very weak and very rich, then they are willing to share the spoils together. If so, they will definitely say that the barbarian is weak, not very strong.
If you really want to start a war, you will say that the barbarians are weak and the fight will be over. If you don't want to start a war and just want to control the inside, you will say that the barbarians are very strong and then squeeze them from within.
This is also a very basic political method, which has been true at all times and in all countries. When fighting, even if the enemy is very strong, you must find weaknesses. Just like the Battle of Chibi, although Cao Cao is very strong, you still need to analyze his ten weaknesses.
Just fine.
If you only say that Cao Cao is strong, then stop fighting and just surrender. Strategically, you should despise your opponent, but tactically, you should pay attention to the enemy.
So sometimes politicians speak the opposite way, and the drunkard's intention is not to drink. If they say that the barbarians are strong, it means that their target is not actually the barbarians, but internal. If they say that the barbarians are weak, it means that they really can
