Thanks to the popularity of Jin Yong's novels, the three words of the Heaven and Earth Society are extremely famous, and they are doing heroic and righteous things in the rivers and lakes, the purpose is to restore the Han People's Rivers and Mountains, especially the general helmsman of the Heaven and Earth Society, "I don't know Chen Jinnan in my life, even if I call him a hero in vain", this sentence alone makes Wei Xiaobao yearn for it, and let the reader smell the blood boiling!
In real history, the Heaven and Earth Society was also an anti-Qing organization, and since the Manchu Qing Entering the Customs, it has been playing the banner of "expelling the Tartars and opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty". We all know that the Qing Dynasty was the most strictly controlled dynasty for rebellion, and it strictly prohibited the activities of secret association, so the blows on the Heaven and Earth Society have never stopped.
Faced with this situation, the Heaven and Earth Society had to develop separately, so that many branches were derived, and these branches not only developed within China, but also ran abroad and established two countries!
One of these two countries is called the Dai Yan Kingdom and the other is called the Lanfang Republic, and the founders of the two countries still have a great relationship, first of all, let's talk about the Dai Yan Kingdom.
The king of the Dai Yan Kingdom was named Wu Yuansheng, a native of Jiaying Prefecture, Guangdong, who grew up strong and learned a martial art, so the villagers were more afraid of him. He had a good physical fitness, and came into contact with anti-Qing ideas in Guangdong, so he joined the Heaven and Earth Society, and soon became a leader of the Heaven and Earth Society, and also planned an uprising in the middle of Qianlong, and as a result, he was wanted for leaking news. So he led some of his troops down to the Pontianak region of Borneo (present-day Kalimantan).
There were already Chinese involved here for a long time, and Wu Yuansheng and his subordinates soon opened up their reputation in the local area and created a very influential Jusheng company. During this time, he also had a subordinate named Luo Fangbo.
Luo Fangbo later became more famous and more accomplished than him, and is now a subordinate, but later gradually became a superior, Luo Fangbo was a reader, smarter and more planning than Wu Yuansheng, so his strength and prestige gradually surpassed, and he became the leader of Wu Yuansheng and others.
Luo Fangbo first established the Lanfang Company to replace the Jusheng Company, and later established the Lanfang Republic, and the lanfang people called Luo Fangbo the "Chief of the Tang Dynasty" or the "King of Pontianak". At this time, Wu Yuansheng was already convinced of Luo Fangbo and was willing to serve as his confidant to conquer the west and be regarded as a founding hero.
Because of Wu Yuansheng's outstanding combat ability, he was assigned to garrison the eastern part of the Lanfang Republic. The place that changed the fate is also here, wu Yuansheng's station is not far from a small country called the Dai Yan Kingdom, the terrain is very dangerous.
Because of the environment surrounded by water, King Dai Yan "relied on water to draft water", charged high taxes and fees to passing ships, not only squeezed nearby merchants, But Also King Dai Yan was very cruel to his own people, and all kinds of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes and taxes were plundered by the people, just to satisfy his corrupt court life, and the people of Dai Yan were miserable about it.
Because of the proximity of the two places, Wu Yuansheng sometimes inevitably had to pass through The State of Dai Yan, and in 1783, Wu Yuansheng led a troop across the river, and the soldiers of the State of Dai received high taxes as usual, and Wu Yuansheng claimed that he had a lot of money to give to the king, but in fact he had already made up his mind to get rid of this greedy man.
King Dai Yan also knew that there might be deception, but could not resist the desire in his heart, after arranging ambushes around the palace, he summoned Wu Yuansheng, it can be said that both of them had their own thoughts, but after meeting, Wu Yuansheng first got down, after all, it was a Chinese who was familiar with martial arts, in the face of the local people, the autumn wind swept away the leaves, and soon stabbed the king to death, and then killed the soldiers of the palace with dozens of pro-soldiers, and then sent a signal to summon other soldiers brought by them, and everyone should cooperate with each other to kill the Soldiers of the Dai Yan Kingdom and occupy the palace.
When Empress Dai Yan heard the news, she immediately sent troops to attack, and Wu Yuansheng asked Luo Fangbo for help, and the two of them took care of each other to occupy the entire territory of Dai Yan's kingdom.
After learning that the king was killed, the people of Dai Yanguo, instead of being angry, were very grateful, regarded Wu Yuansheng as a hero, and supported him as king.
Since then, it has actively developed the economy, developed water conservancy, opened gold mines, planted rubber, etc., and made the lives of the people of Dai Yanguo better. After his death, the Wu clan lasted for four hundred years, until the end of the 19th century, when it became a Dutch colony and perished.
Luo Fangbo, the real founder of the Lanfang Republic, is also a talent, there is a book that "since childhood to learn literature and martial arts for the group crown", it is considered to be a double-complete of literature and martial arts, but his literature is not liked by the Qing court, and he has not been able to pass the first place in the imperial examination for many years, so that he has always been very depressed, and he joined the Heaven and Earth Society in one breath.
Coinciding with the upsurge of opening up jinshan at that time, Luo Fangbo followed a group of members of the Heaven and Earth Society to Pontianak in 1772 in order to make a living, and he also wrote "You Jinshan Fu", which has a very heroic sentence: "Give yourself a self-doubt: If you come out of Humen, you will go straight to the Dragon Palace." "It's a dragon and a tiger again, and the ambition is unobstructed.
When he arrived in Borneo, he first taught and followed Wu Yuansheng to make a living, but he was sensitive to the fact that the local Chinese were very poor, so he raised funds to open a "gold mining company" and distributed the benefits to the poor who collected gold for him as much as possible. In this way, those people were very dead to him, and his reputation gradually spread.
At that time, Borneo was close to the sea, the flow of people was very frequent, and there were often pirates attacking, so the security was very poor, and the local natives had no way. Luo Fangbo had the die-hard loyalists who mined gold, and then widely united the Chinese, organized the hometown association, and first hugged the group to warm up and suppress the pirate mountain bandits nearby, which enhanced the combat effectiveness and ensured the peace in his own area.
Then, together with the Sultan of Borneo, they repelled the foreign invaders, so that the bandits in Lanla, Wanjuju, Sfongping and other places were quickly pacified, and the problems that had plagued Borneo for many years were solved by a Chinese, and the security was cleared.
After doing this, Luo Fangbo's prestige reached its peak, and his excellent command ability had become strong, so that the crowd unanimously elected him as leader, and the local sultan repeatedly submitted to give up the throne to Luo Fangbo.
Luo Fangbo was worthy of being a reader, familiar with the Zen set, and only accepted it after several resignations, so in 1777 he established the Lanfang Grand General Republic, which was the first republic in Asia, and his ideas were also quite avant-garde. The 1.1 million people under his jurisdiction unanimously endorsed him as the "Chief Of the Tang Dynasty", and some people honored him as the King of Pontianak.
Luo Fangbo reigned for 19 years, making the country very rich. The country was nationally old for 111 years and was destroyed by the Dutch in 1888. But even if it is destroyed, there are still many people in this area who speak Chinese!
These two countries have been recorded by many scholars in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, such as the famous literati Liang Qichao, the Huaxing Society member Yi Benxi, Li Hongzhang's grandson-in-law Yang Xi, etc., and also reported in the Times newspaper published in London on June 8, 1793, so the authenticity can be determined.
I didn't expect that the Chinese were so strong overseas! It's just a pity that they, like the Qing Dynasty, also failed to keep up with the times, were beaten up by Western colonists, and eventually died in the long river of history.
