Qin Zheng said: "Empress Dowager Cixi is a very smart person. Of course, she would not believe in the so-called magical powers of the Boxer Rebellion in a friendly manner, so she sent people to check whether the so-called magical powers of the Boxer Rebellion were real. But at this time, the officials of the Qing government had their own ulterior motives and had their own plans. For example, I just now, Empress Dowager Cixi appointed Pu Jun, the son of Prince Duan Zaiyi, as the "big prince". Zaiyi certainly hoped that her son could become the emperor as soon as possible. To make her son the emperor, the first thing to do was to eliminate all the foreigners who supported Guangxu. Since the Qing Dynasty could not fight After foreigners, the Boxer Regiment will be used to deal with foreigners. In addition, the Qing officials of course knew that Empress Dowager Cixi wanted to depose Guangxu, so there were still a group of officials who wanted to use the eldest prince to take over the throne, so they established a group next to Zaiyi, advocating the use of the Boxer Regiment to deal with the Eight-Nation Alliance. Some of them basically believed in the magical powers of the Boxer Regiment. Although some did not believe it, they pretended to believe it in order to echo Zaiyi. So they colluded to check the Boxer Regiment officials and reported to Cixi that the Boxer Regiment's magical powers were all real."

Gao Jun was stunned when he heard this and said, "Are people in this era really that stupid? They are really so easy to be deceived. No wonder everyone wants to travel through time."

Qin Zheng and Zhou Ping looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. Zhou Ping smiled and said, "Does Gao Ye see how time traveled?"

Gao Jun felt embarrassed and said, "I haven't read it before, but now I'm reading a book and want to learn what others do."

Qin Zheng said: "This is not that the ancients are stupid, but that they are wise and ignorant, because people are willing to believe that their hopes are real, even if they are smart people like Empress Dowager Cixi, Zaiyi is not even a smart person. In fact, there are still many people who do not believe in the magical powers of the Boxer Rebellion, but unfortunately the opposition at this time is useless. Later, Empress Dowager Cixi decided to use the Boxer Rebellion to deal with the Eight-Nation Alliance after listening to the reports of the Boxer Rebellion officials, so they condone the Boxer Rebellion's movement to expand and even develop to attack the embassies in China from various countries. This is a major diplomatic incident, which led to the deterioration of the situation. As a result, various countries formed the Eight-Nation Alliance, and the Qing army and the Yi The Hetuan was defeated, and the Eight-Nation Alliance entered Beijing. Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu fled to Xi'an. In the end, the Qing government negotiated with the Eight-Nation and signed the [Xin Chou Treaty] to compensate the eight countries with a total of 400 million taels of silver, with a total of 900 million taels of capital and profit. Later, the Beiyang government and the Republic of China government had been repaying the loans. In addition, foreign troops were allowed to station troops in China in the mainland, further losing China's sovereignty. Therefore, the Qing government's actions were to blame during the Boxer Movement. If it were not for some people in the Qing government to fuel their own selfish interests, then the movement would have caused much harm to China. Therefore, the Qing government was more responsible than the Boxer Movement."

"However, although the reparations from the [Xin Chou Treaty] are much, compared with other unequal treaties, the land was not ceded. This is because the Boxer Movement allowed the imperialist powers to see the terrible powers of the Chinese people and felt that the Chinese people were too difficult to manage, so they did not want China to cede the land. On the contrary, the imperialist powers believed that retaining the Qing government and allowing the Qing government to rule China as the agent of the imperialist powers could better seek benefits from China. Although this made the Qing government survive for another ten years, it allowed China to avoid the fate of being divided by the great powers. And I personally believe that the evaluation of the Boxer Movement should take into account both good and bad aspects, and not to be biased towards that side."

After listening to Qin Zheng’s speech, Gao Jun suddenly realized and said, “Political Commissar Qin, I understand. It turns out that this is the Boxer Rebellion, so what should we do now.”

Qin Zheng said: "The power of the people is indeed extremely huge. This has been proven by countless facts. However, the power of the people needs effective integration and correct leadership. Otherwise, it will not only not save China, but will push China into a deeper abyss. Our goal is to integrate, lead the people, and let the power of the people develop in the right direction. In the old time and space, this was what our ancestors did. Now what we have to do in this time and space is to repeat what they did. Do you understand?"

Gao Jun said in a row, "I understand, Political Commissar Qin, I will do a good job in Gong Jinyan's ideological work, as well as everyone's ideological work."

Qin Zheng said: "No, don't be busy with their ideological work for now."

Gao Jun was stunned and said, "Are you not busy doing ideological work now?"

Qin Zheng said: "Yes, now you should lead them to do a good job in logistics, that is, to lead everyone to work together and instill the idea of ​​self-sufficiency in them."

Gao Jun said: "Why?"

Qin Zheng smiled and said, "We cannot give them any promises now, neither give them a stable life nor share them with land. At most, they can only have a full meal. The people are very realistic. If there is no visible benefit, it is impossible for the people to believe it by just speaking verbally. Our ancestors let the people see the benefits by fighting the local tyrants and dividing the land, while the Boxer Rebellion gained the trust of the people by burning churches and killing foreigners. We can't give anything now, so we should do less now, because you are the ones who have to take the lead in the work. This will be very hard, but it is what we should do, do you understand?"

Gao Jun raised his head and said, "Yes, Political Commissar Qin, I understand, I will take the lead in doing things."

After Gao Jun left, Zhou Ping smiled and said, "It's so high that she is very substantial, but she was originally engaged in information engineering, but now she has to take the lead in working. It's really hard for her."

Qin Zheng said: "What's the matter? Compared with the ancestors in the old time and space, our conditions are much better. What we need now is people who are willing to do practical things. If you don't even want to do these things, will you still want to occupy a high position in the future? This is also my requirement for Ying, you must understand it."

Zhou Ping smiled and said, "Okay, okay, don't I understand you yet? Didn't you let Ying go to the most dangerous place this time? That's enough."

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The next morning, Qin Zheng mentioned Gao Junsou's incident on the interim executive committee, and of course he also briefly explained the Boxer Rebellion's evaluation history to everyone.

After listening to Qin Zheng's report, Xiao Jianjun said first: "I didn't expect that it was a woman who made the first request to join the army, but this was not bad. Anyway, we will recruit troops sooner or later, so we can consider her first."

Xu Jichao said: "What she has had is indeed sympathy for. However, this experience is definitely a common phenomenon in this era. Among the people we release, there are definitely not a few people with similar experiences. They are all born with great revenge. Therefore, we will not worry about the source of soldiers when we recruit soldiers in the future."

Wang Yunpeng shook his head and said, "I think it's better to be cautious. Although hatred is the driving force, if we blindly promote hatred, it is definitely not a good thing. We should strengthen ideological education and make the people of this era truly realize, rather than relying on hatred to support it. Just like Gong Jinyan, while taking revenge, it still hurts many innocent people. This is extremely harmful to our great cause. Therefore, I agree with the opinion of Political Commissar Qin, starting from labor first, not only instilling the concept of self-sufficiency, but also establishing the concept of the most glorious work."

Xia Bohai also said: "Yes, the most glorious concept of labor is not only for people in this era, but also for those who come together. Judging from yesterday's situation, there are indeed many people who are full of expectations for this era, and they are indeed full of opportunities in this era. However, this does not mean that we can stay in a high position in the future. If we want to gain a higher position, we must achieve it through our own efforts. There is absolutely nothing to get for nothing, and we cannot engage in egalitarianism. Otherwise, this is not only unfair to those who come together, those who work hard, but also unfair to those who work hard in this era. This principle should be known to those who come together."

Wang Yunpeng said: "Commander Xia, I agree with your opinion in principle, but we should still be cautious in the implementation of the whole body. I think we should follow the opinions of Political Commissar Qin first and do it, because in the future we will definitely gradually activate more people to do things, and we can observe their work attitudes from it, select a group of people who can work hard. With their leading and exemplary role, it will be easier."

Xia Bohai said, "I agree with Director Wang's opinion."

Although an interim executive committee has been established, the same name is still used to be used by each other and no changes have occurred.

Xia Bohai also said: "There are also things about the Boxer Rebellion and the historical background of this era. Lao Qin would rather make a compilation of reference materials and distribute them to everyone, including us, so that all of us have a clear understanding of this era and facilitate our future work arrangements."

Qin Zheng said, "Don't worry, I'm starting this work. I'll probably be able to do it in three or four days."

Xia Bohai said: "That would be great."

While everyone was standing there, the guards' voice sounded at the door: "Report, Battalion Commander Chu has an emergency military report."

Xia Bohai immediately said: "Read it."

The guard opened the folder and said, "Today, there are military and vehicles gathering activities in Tianjin. It is expected that the Eight-Nation Alliance intends to launch an attack on Dagukou."

Now the Time Travel Group has not relaxed its surveillance of Tianjin. Every day, it has to send drones to fly over Tianjin City, and reconnaissance every morning and evening, pay close attention to the dynamics of Tianjin City. Therefore, every move of Tianjin City cannot escape the attention of time travelers.
