Wuxia Chat Group: I'm a cultivator!

?炷?炷

The chat group members quickly received the information and then processed the memories in their minds.

Little Li Flying Dagger: "Indeed, even after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, in the Republic of China, China was still far weaker than the Western powers."

Qin Emperor Zulong: "The emperor is gone? If someone becomes emperor, the whole world will rise up against them? The emperor is a corrupt feudal system?"

Ying Zheng was stunned.

Although there is no emperor in the world of Fengyun, it's just a different title; the supreme martial arts master is no different from an emperor.

However, when the Republic of China came to power, Yuan Shikai declared himself emperor. As a result, not only did the whole country besiege him, but even his own subordinates rebelled against him. He abdicated after only eighty-three days, abandoned by his people, and died of a serious illness.

Chief Chen of the World Society said: "The weapons of the Western powers are even more terrifying. As long as the weapons are advanced enough, they can easily defeat enemies several times, or even dozens of times, more powerful."

Chen Jinnan had made up his mind that once he unified the country, he would vigorously develop science and technology, and absolutely not allow history to repeat itself.

A centenarian Taoist priest from Wudang Mountain said, "I never imagined there was such a system; it's far better than the emperor's."

The people chatting felt their eyes were opened and their hearts were deeply shocked.

Because most of them came from ancient dynasties, where the fall of one dynasty was followed by the rise of another, in a never-ending cycle.

I never imagined that dynasties and emperors would become a thing of the past.

At the same time, the weapons developed through technological advancements also broadened their horizons.

Ordinary people can actually fly and disappear into the ground.

Let alone the Eight Banners army in the world of The Deer and the Cauldron, even the Golden Fire Cavalry and the Hundred-Battle Armored Soldiers in the world of Qin would probably be utterly defeated if they clashed with the armies of those Western powers.

The power of firearms became a crucial factor in determining the outcome of wars.

Master Ip, a Wing Chun practitioner: "@Cultivator, what is my dark destiny and future?"

Ip Man took a deep breath, forcibly pressed down his trembling legs, and continued the topic he had asked last time.

Especially after Xiong Ba had just deduced the secrets of heaven, Ip Man felt a nameless fear in his heart, and he vaguely guessed what was going on.

He considered the situation outside: the concessions were rampant, Japan was aggressive, and after occupying Northeast China, it became even more rampant, with the possibility of an even larger war breaking out at any time.

But didn't that principal often mobilize a million troops to suppress the revolutionaries in the south?

If the situation is extremely critical, shouldn't these troops be used to defend against the Japanese army?

Moreover, the principal spoke with great confidence every time, expressing his belief that he could defeat the Japanese army.

If China and Japan were to go to war, even if we couldn't win, we could at least hold our ground, right?

Even if we can't hold on, the defeat won't be too devastating, right?

Chapter Fifty-Two: A Terrible Future, the Horror of World War

Cultivator: "You actually have two choices in life."

Cultivator: "The first option is the simplest. With the cultivation resources you've acquired in this transaction, you'll immediately become a Qi Refining Realm Level 1 cultivator, making you absolutely invincible in your world."

The cultivator said, "As long as you ignore everything else and just live your own life, you can go to Sichuan, or even go abroad to countries like the United States or Canada. You will definitely be able to live a life of luxury."

As the only extraordinary person in the Ip Man world, Ip Man could enjoy a luxurious life wherever he was, as long as he didn't get involved in the great war.

Li Xunhuan: "The rise and fall of the nation is the responsibility of every citizen! If someone were to make such a choice, I can only say they are simply inhuman."

If it were a peaceful era, Li Xunhuan could completely understand choosing to live his own life.

However, Ip Man lived during the Republic of China era.

Although Ip Man's uploads didn't provide much information about the history of the Republic of China, Li Xunhuan could still sense the humiliation within.

The concessions were like states within a state, even above the Republic of China.

In addition, many territories of the Kyushu Kingdom were occupied by foreign powers, and the people lived in dire straits, a veritable hell.

If you live in a country like this, and you have the ability to make contributions but choose not to, how cold-blooded must you be?

The centenarian Taoist priest from Wudang said, "Ip Man, you can make any choice you want, but I hope you can grant me access to the world and let me in."

Over the years, the Yuan Dynasty had been trying to force Zhang Sanfeng to surrender, even offering to remove him from his position as Imperial Preceptor.

However, he never wavered; when faced with Yuan soldiers, he had only one word: kill.

He would not hesitate to support the overthrow of the Yuan court should the opportunity arise.

Although Ip Man and he are from different worlds, the people in Ip Man's world are also from Kyushu.

Now that he has the power, he will definitely not stand idly by.

Da Qin Zulong: "The high-ranking officials of the Republic of China were also useless, without any backbone. Whether in the concessions or against the Japanese army, they had no courage to fight to the death."

The old Qin and Jiujiang fought against the national calamity together!

There will be no truce until the blood is shed dry!

Although the Republic of China was technologically behind Western powers and Japan, if it had truly fought to the death, it would not have been as pathetic as it is now.

Master Ip, a Wing Chun practitioner: "What's the second option?"

Ip Man clenched his fist, his expression incredibly resolute.

He cannot ignore the rise and fall of the nation and live only his own life.

He will definitely stand up when he encounters injustice.

修仙者：“1937年7月7日，日军将发动全面战争，九州沦陷26个省1500多个县，面积达600多万平方公里。”

Wing Chun Master Ip: "26 provinces have fallen?"

Ip Man felt a chill run through his body, his vision went black, and he staggered.

He lived in 1934, when the Republic of China consisted of only 28 provinces and 2 localities. Even if things changed later, it meant that most of the territory had fallen, far exceeding his previous expectations.

Not only did he lose!

And the defeat was devastating!

How could we have suffered such a crushing defeat?

Doesn't that principal have an army of several million?

Made of paper?

Or did they run out of money from receiving salaries without working?

Cultivator: "After the war ended, the Japanese army caused more than 50 million deaths directly and indirectly to the population of Kyushu, and the number of people affected exceeded 200 million."

Senseless!

At this moment, not only did Ip Man completely lose the ability to think, but the other people in the chat group also had buzzing heads, with only bloody numbers in their minds.

heavy!

Depressed!

pain!

At this moment, everyone in the chat group finally understood why Ye Hao said that even the Qin Dynasty could not help Ye Wen change his dark fate.

This dark fate encompasses the fate of the Kyushu Kingdom.

More than fifty million deaths!

It is easy to imagine how brutal the war was.

How tragically the Kyushu Kingdom was defeated!

The population of the Qin Dynasty was only a little over ten million, which is equivalent to the Qin Dynasty being destroyed four or five times!

In the eyes of ancient figures like Zhang Sanfeng, Li Xunhuan, and Yue Buqun, a major battle that resulted in hundreds of thousands of casualties was already considered a terrifying battle!

But now the death toll is over 50 million.

If casualties are included, it would be an absolutely terrifying number.

Master Ip, a Wing Chun practitioner: "There were only a little over 400 million people in the Republic of China!"

Ip Man's fists clenched until they turned white, his eyes were bloodshot, and he felt an endless surge of killing intent, anger, and helplessness.

This is a war between nations, with armies numbering in the millions, armed with firearms.

It also has warships, airplanes, tanks, and artillery.

At the first level of Qi Refining, he had no control over this kind of national war.

Emperor Qin Shi Huang: "Holy crap! I'll send troops to wipe out Japan as soon as I get back!"

Ying Zheng couldn't help but swear.
