In recent years, the Taiwan independence forces have been eager to make a fuss, and recently they went so far as to make a high-profile announcement that there are US troops stationed in Taiwan, which is not tantamount to declaring war on the mainland? The reason why we did not choose to attack Taiwan by force is not that we are afraid of interference by external forces, nor that we cannot do anything with them, but because we are unwilling to hurt the hearts and minds of the people on both sides of the strait. On both sides of the Taiwan Strait, broken bones are connected to tendons, and culture is the same as history, the same national customs are the same. There is a successful precedent for one country, two systems long ago, but a small number of Taiwan independence elements in Taiwan still disregard the interests of the people, disregard the needs of their own economic development, collude with external forces for their own selfish interests, and attempt to split the country.
History is always strikingly similar, and the outcome of the Taiwan independence forces can also be learned from history.
During the Sui and Tang dynasties (589-618 AD), Taiwan was called "Liuqiu". According to historical records, in 610 AD (the sixth year of the Sui Dynasty), the Han people began to migrate to the Penghu area. By the Song and Yuan dynasties (960-1368 AD), the Han chinese people had a considerable number in the Penghu region. After the Han people opened up Penghu, they began to develop into Taiwan, bringing with them the advanced means of production and production technology at that time, and setting up competent institutions. In the 12th century, the Song Dynasty placed Penghu under the jurisdiction of Jinjiang County, Quanzhou, Fujian, and sent troops to defend it. The Yuan Dynasty also sent troops to Taiwan.
In the 16th century, Spain, the Netherlands and other countries had strong shipbuilding and ocean-going navigation capabilities, and began to expand their colonization. In the early 17th century, the Dutch came to Taiwan and took advantage of the decline of the Ming government at that time. Soon, the Spaniards also invaded some areas in the north and east of Taiwan, and were defeated by the Dutch, and Taiwan became a Dutch colony.
The Dutch colonists exercised coercive rule, seized the land for their own use, forced the people to pay various taxes, plundered Taiwan's rice and sugar, and re-exported the Chinese raw silk, sugar and porcelain they had purchased through Taiwan to various countries, for making high profits. In 1644, the Qing army entered the customs and established the Qing dynasty regime in Beijing. In April 1661, Zheng Chenggong led 25,000 soldiers and hundreds of warships from Kinmen to Taiwan in the name of the Southern Ming Dynasty to recruit generals. When Zheng Chenggong marched into Taiwan, he told the Dutch colonists that Taiwan "has always belonged to China" and that the inhabitants of the two "islands" of Taiwan and Penghu are Chinese, and they have occupied and cultivated this land since ancient times, and the Dutch "should return it to their owners." After fierce fighting and siege, in February 1662, Zheng successfully forced the Dutch governor to sign a surrender. Zheng Successfully recovered the Chinese territory of Taiwan from the Dutch colonists and became a great national hero who was admired by the broad masses of the people.
Later, The Zheng clan became the earliest "Taiwan independence" force in China, defending against danger. After this, we all understand that there is too much talk in film and television dramas, and I will not repeat them here. In the end, the Zheng family failed, and the Kangxi Emperor of the Qing Dynasty recovered Taiwan.
Therefore, whether it is a foreign power or an internal split, we have never been afraid of Taiwan, nor have we ever been defeated.
