Two days later, the news of the fall of Xi 'an finally reached Shanghai. The authoritative newspapers like Shen Pao also published some vague news. However, there were different opinions about which warlord the army that occupied Xi' an belonged to. Most people believed that it should be the Song Army under Liu Zhenhua's command. Some people also said that the Huihui Three Horsemen from the northwest attacked Xi 'an.
In some of the most absurd rumors, it was Feng Yuxiang who dug up the First Emperor's mausoleum and released the Qin's army from 2,000 years ago, which led to the fall of Xi 'an.
"Damn it!" In the Marshal's Mansion of the Song Army, Liu Zhenhua stomped his feet and cursed, "If I find out which bald man destroyed Xi 'an and made me a scapegoat, I'll kill him! Now Zhang Huzi (Zhang Zuolin) and Wu Peifu (Wu Peifu) have telegraphed me to ask if I have taken Xi 'an. They want to kill me! "
"Marshal, the situation of the enemy in Xi 'an is not clear. Don't act rashly!" Chu Zixiang advised.
"To be able to wipe out the Jing Guojun and Feng Yuxiang's original troops in one day, of course he's a troublesome character. But he's occupied Xi 'an, so I'm not in a proper position as the Shaanxi Military Governor! We must take Xi 'an … "Liu Zhenhua said resolutely. At the same time, there was a treacherous smile on his face. He said coldly," But we can't let Wu Peifu and his people take advantage of us! "
"Let's drag it out for a few days. When Wu Peifu and his people are eager to test me, I'll ask them to admit that I'm the Shaanxi Governor!"
On the other side, the purge of the Qin Army in Xi 'an was very smooth. After systematically eliminating the armed forces in the ancient city of Xi' an, the Qin Army did not immediately make any large-scale moves. The citizens of Xi 'an gradually adapted to the fact that the ghost-like bronze terracotta soldiers were stationed in the city. Some citizens who feared ghosts and gods even secretly burned joss paper to the terracotta soldiers standing in the streets like bronze statues.
If there was any other change, it was that the whole city began to be under martial law. The strange bronze terracotta soldiers began to carry out large-scale renovation and renovation of the ancient city of Xi 'an. They also monitored and controlled the leading figures in Xi' an. Secret societies were a special class in local governance. They represented the Qing Gang and the Hong Gang, which had great influence in the political arena of the Republic.
Secret societies were, in essence, the middle class that the bureaucrats and landlords oppressed the lower-class people, and the organizations that gangsters and gangsters used to earn local economic benefits.
In new China, the underworld was also known as gangs, Secret societies, and gangsters. Xi 'an was an important town in the northwest, a cultural and economic center. Naturally, there were a large number of Secret societies and gangs. On the one hand, they formed gangs among the foot laborers, coolies, and dock workers in the city. On the other hand, they used force to win over the lower-class people and compete with the bureaucrats and landlords in Shaanxi. On the other hand, they squeezed the lower-class workers and usurped the gray interests in the economic operation.
During the period of the warlords' rule, on the one hand, a large number of the early revolutionary army came from Secret societies. With their power, the gangster leaders of the Secret societies had a complicated network of relationships. On the one hand, they controlled the Secret societies, and on the other hand, they were part of the warlords and bureaucrats. They colluded with the warlords and bureaucrats to oppress the lower-class people. On the other hand, they controlled the lower-class people by force through gang rules, forcing the bureaucrats and warlords to cooperate with them.
But after the Qin Army occupied this place, their good days came to an end!
Although the system of Xianqin had just sprouted and was still in the process of exploration, one basic principle had been determined. Xianqin would certainly have an unprecedentedly huge system and management system. Whether it was the virtual godhead of Xianqin, Qin First Emperor, or Yinglong and other members of the Republic of Republic, they were all inclined to establish an authoritative system and build an unprecedentedly huge system to include everyone in the management.
In their blueprint, the tentacles and will of the empire of Xianqin must be carried out in the most subtle places of the empire, from the most ordinary farmer to the collective consciousness of the entire earth. Everything should be directly ruled by Xianqin.
There were no managers outside the government system of the empire in Xianqin. The so-called imperial power did not go to the countryside, small government, big society, and service-oriented government were all not allowed to exist in Xianqin. There were no rural self-governing landlords, no grey rentier class parasitic on the economic system. Xianqin would not allow any organization or individual who tried to steal its power to exist.
The soil on the execution ground outside Xianqin City was wet with blood, which proved this point.
From the moment this huge political system was created, it existed for the sake of expanding and occupying power. It had to carry out its will on every single individual. It was the ultimate existence of Qin Shi Huang's dictatorship that merged all the world's constitutions.
It was created precisely to disintegrate itself. It was a verb and not a noun, an continuously expanding concept and not some type of fixed government system. Its instinct was to control, to control everything, to control life and death reincarnation, to control weather disasters, to control economic activities, to control individuals, to control war and conquest, to control food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Any power that could be controlled was Immortal Qin's goal, all the way until it was torn apart and reborn from the flames, struggling free from this type of limitless desire for power.
The ultimate form of Xianqin was the Celestial Court. When it developed to the ultimate form, it would control everything from individuals high above. When this control reached the ultimate stage, it would sublimate into fate, controlling the cycle of life and death, controlling wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, controlling good or bad luck. The individuals in this system were like the mortals under the rule of the Celestial Court. Their birth was determined, their death was determined, and even their fate after birth was determined.
This was the arrangement of Yinglong. Such a civilization was destined to be destroyed, so it was destined to be just a process, a temporary existence to achieve the goal of unification. Neither the Qin First Emperor, who was born according to the will of Chen Ang, nor the Will of China wanted to keep it. When the Republic of China broke out of the cocoon and the Xianqin Empire was reborn, it would be the opportunity for the rebirth of the Xianqin civilization that Qin First Emperor had expected.
"We created it and were ready to bury it at any time, thus giving birth to a civilization that truly follows our ideals and will!" Yinglong sighed. "This was already destined when the Apocalypse interfered with the process of the Republic's rebirth … Two incompatible wills could not coexist in a civilization."
"A civilization that controls all power is meaningless." The Qin First Emperor, whose face was hidden under the crown sighed. "The Xianqin Empire is destined to be the culmination of the bureaucratic system. But once the bureaucratic system is out of control, its only purpose is to maintain its existence and expand its power. I was born according to the two wills, not to build an empire that will not change for millions of years, but for thousands of generations."
