    ,

    Stepan Razin is no stranger to China, and most of the information he heard was from Turghuts.

    This guy once lived in the Torghut Ministry for two years and served as the resident diplomatic representative of the Don Cossacks.  He also stayed away from the Don River and worked as a water bandit on the Volga River for several years, collecting protection fees from merchant ships passing along the way.

    "Dear Khitan envoy, please convey my respect to the Khitan emperor." Racine bowed and saluted. He spoke Mongolian fluently.

    Xie Yuan smiled and said, "Hello, heroic rebel."

    Racine asked curiously: "You are a Khitan envoy, so you must be from a noble family. Shouldn't the nobles hate rebels like me? Why do you call me a heroic rebel?"

    Xie Yuan suddenly looked serious, bowed to the east, then turned and said, "Because His Majesty the Emperor of our country is also a heroic rebel. He was a slave oppressed by the nobles, and brought more slaves and poor people to overthrow the brutal emperor."  rule. In China today, no poor people are oppressed anymore, because the emperor treats all people equally.¡±

    "Emperor Khitan used to be a slave?" Racine was very surprised.

    Xie Yuan nodded and said: "Yes, His Majesty the Emperor of China used to be a slave. Many Chinese officials were slaves and poor people. They rebelled with His Majesty and created a new dynasty. I heard that you have to ask  March in Moscow, and then get the tsar to improve his policy on the poor. With all due respect, you can't succeed."

    "Why is it impossible to succeed?" Racine asked.

    Xie Yuan said: "Because the tsar and the nobles are one, he will only speak for the nobles. Even if he agrees to you, he will definitely regret it, and then mobilize the army to destroy you."

    Racine said: "I believe His Majesty the Tsar is merciful."

    Racine himself did not believe such nonsense.

    He was purely consoling himself, because for the Cossacks the Tsar was invincible.  Even if they revolted, they could only run around and force the tsar to change his decree by causing losses to Russia.

    Xie Yuan asked: "Are you literate?"

    "I have studied for several years." Racine's parents were wealthy Cossacks, but the family property was taken over by the nobles.

    Xie Yuan took out a special Russian version of "Da Tong Ji", which has been translated into many languages ??thanks to the efforts of Honglu Temple and missionaries.  He handed it to Racine and said, "This is a book written by His Majesty the Emperor himself. It tells how to revolt and govern the country."

    Racine took it over and took a look, only to see that the title of the book was "The Khitan Emperor Leads the Poor Uprising and the Theory of State Construction".

    The Russian translation is more straightforward and removes traditional ideas unique to China.

    The first chapter is the theory of personality, explaining that everyone is equal under the gods, and no one should be oppressed by nature.

    The second chapter is the Sanyuan Chapter, explaining that the people are the masters of the country, and the monarchs, nobles and officials are only managing the country on behalf of the people.

    ?The third chapter is the theory of land equalization, explaining that land is bestowed by the gods and should not be monopolized by big landlords.  All the land of the big landlords came by bloody means.  Only small landlords and self-cultivating farmers earn their income by reclaiming wasteland through hard work.

    Chapter Four¡­¡­

    Racine led the uprising troops and went up the Volga River.

    Sitting in the Cossack boat, Racine began to read the Russian version of "Da Tong Ji".

    The first chapter gave him a strong impact, but at the same time made him empathize, because this theory fits the Cossack very well.

    After reading the second chapter, Racine felt enlightened.

    The content of the third chapter, Racine suddenly wanted to cry when he saw it.  Cossacks were not born robbers. His grandparents belonged to fugitive slaves. They fled to the Don River Basin and worked hard to cultivate them. It was entirely through hard work that they got rich.  But the damned aristocrat came and took over his family's property and business, so he could only bring a group of people to be robbers.

    Tsarist Russian nobles are constantly encroaching on the Don River Basin and continuously compressing the living space of the Cossacks.

    This book is just a pamphlet, which can be read in half a day.

    At the end of the book is "Brief Biography of the Great Khitan Emperor".  It tells how miserable the Khitan emperor was when he was a child, he was oppressed layer by layer, and finally led the poor and slaves to rebel, and finally established a happy country where everyone is equal.

    After Racine finished reading the book, his hands were shaking. Inspired by the deeds of the Khitan emperor, he felt that he could also overthrow the tsar and build a country.

    Having landed and plundered a small town, Racine called all the leaders of the rebel army, and also the leaders of the Bashkir uprising.

    He took the Russian version of "Datong Collection" and said: "In the far east, there is a powerful country called Khitan. How powerful is Khitan? Its capital isBut these guys, including Racine, lack a clear rebellion program.  They still had illusions about the tsar, they just wanted to go to Moscow, force the tsar to appease themselves, and then get a piece of land to live on.  This kind of thing often happened in Russia, and many Cossacks were ordered to peace, because the tsar was unable to suppress the rebellion.

    However, it is absolutely impossible for Racine to be punished.

    Because the direct cause of this uprising was that he robbed the official ship of the Tsarist Ministry of Finance!  Along with the official ship, there were also fleets of great nobles and wealthy merchants, which aroused the anger of the Moscow nobles.

    After advancing for more than a hundred miles to Moscow, Racine finally met the troops sent by the Tsar.

    The main shooting army is all some kind of stuff.

    The real main force is the noble army and Cossacks.  The Cossacks are also divided into many forces, some of whom are willing to serve as lackeys for the nobles.

    ? A battle broke out on the riverside between the two sides. The official army had better weapons, but the morale of the rebel army was high.  The rebel army only killed or wounded hundreds of people, defeated the official army, and continued marching all the way.

    But when he was hundreds of miles away from Moscow, Racine became timid again.

    He was still afraid of the Tsar and knew that Moscow would not be defeated.  The group of political prisoners who took refuge in Racine also began to act speculatively weak, encouraging Racine to change direction and plunder.  As long as more cities and towns can be destroyed and more big landlords plundered, huge losses can be caused to Tsarist Russia, and the tsar can also be forced to come to Zhao'an.

    Ever since, Racine really changed the direction of the march and fought all the way along the river.  Moreover, he couldn't afford to support so many soldiers by plundering. When he met a new serf who had come to join him, he just gave him some money and food, and then he robbed the nobles and rich people everywhere.

    The Tsar finally had time to summon more troops and sent tens of thousands of troops to suppress.

    Racine made a foolish move again. He divided the army into ten and looted in all directions.  It can not only make it difficult for the tsar's army to pursue, but also cause a larger area of ??damage, forcing the tsar to carry out Zhao'an.

    I read that "Da Tong Ji" for nothing

    However, as the Racine uprising army swept across the country, the ideas in "Datong Ji" spread.

    In particular, a few political prisoners copied some secretly and carried them with them during their escape, which is equivalent to preserving the seeds of revolutionary ideas.

    Just as Racine was running around, the strong fortress was knocked down by the Torghut troops.

    To be precise, it was not defeated, but the defenders themselves rebelled.

    Racine also encountered many such situations. There were many fortified cities along the way. As soon as the rebels arrived, the city gates opened wide, and the defenders directly joined the uprising team.
