Chapter 329 Jiangjia Clan and Zhangjia Clan: Outrageous yet Believable Unofficial Histories

Zhu Dijun stared at the rapidly scrolling comments on the screen.

The smile on his face gradually faded.

He picked up the thermos beside him, took a sip of water, and his tone became somewhat meaningful.

"Family members."

"Since we've brought up the famous Chang'an Incident, and Chang Guangtou and Xiao Liuzi..."

"Here is a piece of unofficial history that has been widely circulated on the Internet in later generations."

"Although we don't know if it's true or not, we can talk about it today."

He tapped on the keyboard, and two photos appeared on the screen.

One of them is a photo of Captain Chang in military uniform.

The other photo is of Xiao Liuzi wearing the Young Marshal's military uniform.

Many people doubt that Captain Chang is the same person from the Chang family in Fenghua in history.

"Instead, the intangible cultural heritage Changjia clan changed their surname to Chang, thus possessing the true Chang family."

"As for that troublemaker, Xiao Liu..."

"It has also been suspected of being a case of possession."

This statement came out.

The myriad realms and timelines fell silent.

Because Zhu Dijun produced several photos, each circled in red, pointing to medals worn on the chest. The medals featured photos of prominent figures from the past and present, showcasing their achievements.

When everyone in the myriad realms and timelines observed the red circle marked by Zhu Dijun, they all gasped in shock. One possibility was a coincidence, but for so many people at different times, it was definitely not a coincidence!

The Ming Dynasty Era.

Zhu Yuanzhang's brows instantly furrowed into a tight knot.

Buryat wild boar hide?

That's just possessing the body of a Jianzhou Jurchen, using that persona to wage war against the descendants of the Ming Dynasty.

These two guys are fake?

Special time and space.

Captain Chang was stunned.

He touched his non-existent hair, looking utterly incredulous.

How did I, a proud Han Chinese from Zhejiang, suddenly become a Buryat Changjia?

Xiao Liu, who was imprisoned in Jinling, was also completely bewildered.

His Zhang family are legitimate Han Chinese from Liaoning, so how did they become Buryat Zhangjia clan?

The two said at the same time:

"Slander! This is slander! Which little cutie slandered me? Don't let me find out who it was!"

However, when they saw the same pendant, not only they themselves, but even outsiders found it hard not to believe. Suspicious looks appeared on them without even thinking. The two of them then began to try to prove themselves, and they didn't notice that the eyes of the people around them had changed.

On the sky.

Zhu Dijun's eyes turned somewhat cold.

"Everyone will definitely find it strange."

"Both of them clearly have evidence to prove their identities, so why have such absurd claims been passed down through generations?"

"And many people actually believe this?"

"The reason is simple."

"Because of the various mind-boggling and outrageous actions they took in the history of the war to defend our homeland."

"This is a classic case of using someone else to do the dirty work!"

"It's so outrageous that later generations feel that if they weren't the mole, their actions are simply inexplicable."

Zhu Dijun pointed the laser pointer at Xiao Liuzi's photo.

"Let's start with this guy, Xiao Liu Zi."

"In 1931, the September 18 Incident broke out."

"The Japanese Kwantung Army, with a mere 20,000 men, launched an attack on the Northeast Army's garrison."

"At that time, Zhang Xiaoliu commanded 300,000 well-equipped Northeast Army soldiers!"

"It has Asia's largest arms factory, airplanes, artillery, and tanks."

"And the result?"

Zhu Dijun's voice suddenly rose, filled with barely suppressed anger.

"That little brat actually issued an order of non-resistance!"

"He led the Northeast Army and retreated directly into the interior of China without firing a single shot!"

"They handed over the three northeastern provinces, countless arsenals, and strategic materials to the Japanese pirates!"

"This led to 30 million compatriots in Northeast China becoming slaves of a conquered nation overnight!"

on the screen.

The iron hooves of the Japanese Kwantung Army trampled over Shenyang City.

Countless innocent civilians screamed under bayonets.

Well-equipped Northeast Army soldiers, with tears in their eyes, were forcibly pulled onto a train by their superiors and evacuated from their hometowns.

"How is this any different from the Qing Dynasty's payment of indemnities in 1840?"

"They gave away the land that belonged to the Han people's ancestors to outsiders without even batting an eye!"

"No wonder later generations suspected he was from the Zhangjia clan; this wasn't about protecting his country at all! It was about handing it over in a trade!"

The Great Han Dynasty.

Liu Che suddenly drew the Chixiao sword from his waist.

He cleaved the bronze table in front of him in two with a single sword stroke.

His eyes were blazing with fury.

"An army of 300,000, terrified by 20,000?"

"Flee without firing a single shot?"

"Every inch of our great Han territory will be fought for!"

"This coward is fit to command troops? Fit to be called a general? His entire clan should be exterminated!"

"If the speculations of future generations are true, then the Buryat wild boar skin deserves to be killed!"

The Ming Dynasty Era.

Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he trembled all over.

He drove out the Tartars, restored China, and established this indomitable nation.

What I hate most is this kind of spineless coward.

"Three hundred thousand people!"

"Even if it were 300,000 pigs, those 20,000 Japanese pirates couldn't capture them all in three days and three nights!"

"That beast actually fled without a fight!"

"If we were to appear in the future, we'd definitely give us a good beating with the Imperial Guard's torture techniques!"

"No wonder they suspected it was wild boar hide; it might not be fake!"

On the sky.

Zhu Dijun moved his laser pointer onto Captain Chang's photo.

"Now that we've talked about Xiao Liuzi, let's talk about Captain Jiang Chang."

"As the nominal leader, Chang Jianzhong's actions in fighting against the Japanese pirates also caused blood pressure to soar."

"His favorite thing to do is to give micro-management commands that go beyond his level."

"A leader who doesn't take a holistic view of the situation, but instead spends all his time on the phone, bypassing the theater commander and directly ordering the battalion and company commanders at the front."

"This kind of misguided micromanagement led to the needless sacrifice of countless soldiers on the front lines."

"But these aren't the most amazing things."

Zhu Dijun's eyes were slightly red.

"In 1938, in order to stop the Japanese army's offensive."

"Captain Chang issued a heinous order."

"To halt the advance of the Japanese 14th Division, we deliberately blew up Huayuankou!"

AI-powered screen switching.

The surging river, like a wild beast unleashed, roared as it burst through the breach.

The murky water instantly swallowed up downstream villages, farmland, and cities.

Countless people struggled and cried for help in the flood.

Corpses littered the field, a truly horrific sight.

"This bombing drowned 890,000 Chinese civilians!"

"This has resulted in the displacement of over twelve million people!"

"This created a flood-prone area across the three provinces of Henan, Anhui, and Jiangsu!"

"And the Japanese army? They were only held off for a few months, suffering only a few thousand casualties."

"Using the lives of their own compatriots to buy that insignificant strategic buffer."

"This kind of practice treats ordinary people like dirt and human lives like ants."

"How can future generations not doubt his background?"

In the live stream, the chat had shifted from humor to angry condemnation.

"Every time I see this part of history, I wish I could go back in time and kill those two!"

"The breach of the Huayuankou dike is truly a sin that will be condemned for all time!"

"While the unofficial histories are absurd, their actions are even more outrageous!"

"No wonder they're called Changjia and Zhangjia; they really don't value the lives of their fellow countrymen!"

"Don't forget, brother, this Jiang Jia clan member secretly negotiated with the Japanese pirates as many as three times. That's just the record of public events; who knows how many more she did in private."

The Republican era.

Captain Chang slumped into his chair, his face ashen.

He didn't do the Zheng County dike breach incident. If he had, he would have been condemned by all sides without even thinking about it. Right now, the Xi'an Incident has just ended, and this is the first incompetent person to appear in the government. Isn't this going to cause a setback in his political career?

Now, Tianmu has exposed his dark past in front of all the worlds and timelines.

The story includes claims about breaching the dike at Huayuankou, brain-dead command during the War of Resistance, and secret peace talks with the Japanese invaders.

As a result, the way his confidants looked at him changed, and some of them might even suspect that he had sold domestic secrets to the Japanese.

Captain Chang felt like he was nailed to a deadpan joke forever, with no chance of ever getting out.

No, he had to save himself. How could he prove that he wasn't the Buryat Changjia clan member that brat was talking about?

It's very simple: let Buryat suffer a bit, and I'll reap the benefits!

I can obtain the wealth of the Buryat people and also eliminate the fact that I am a member of the so-called Changjia clan. I can kill two birds with one stone. I am so clever.

But what Zhu Dijun said next made Captain Chang's face change.

"When this bald-headed man was driven away from the mainland and became an island guerrilla, he took with him all the official wealth that could be found on the mainland at that time, including books, scientists, and scholars with real talent. Those who did not take them were assassinated."

"At the same time, just like the Qing Dynasty, it signed more than 100 treasonous treaties that raise blood pressure."

"Similar actions, similar treaties—how can future generations not suspect that you are not from the Changjia clan?"

The Tang Dynasty Era.

Li Shimin closed his eyes, unable to bear watching the devastating flood any longer.

"Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it."

"A ruler should prioritize the people."

"Such acts of harming the people are intolerable to Heaven and Earth!"

On the sky.

Zhu Dijun took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

"So, family members."

"That concludes our story about the Running Man cast."

"Whether it's the hilarious camel rider or the infuriating pajama running man."

"They have all become dust in history."

"In those humiliating and dark years."

"Those who truly uphold the backbone of China have never been these high-and-mighty Running Man members."

"But rather, they were the martyrs who fought and bled in the mud!"

Judy tapped the table, her eyes sharpening again.

"Alright, I've regulated my emotions."

"Next episode."

"Let's get back to the main topic."

"Go and take a look at Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youcheng, who was praised by the civil official group as a 'benevolent ruler for all ages'."

"Look at this restorer who abolished the Western Depot and made good use of civil officials."

"Just how big a hole have they dug for the Ming Dynasty?!"
