China, under siege
.
The barbaric nation of Manchuria had dared assault the Middle Kingdom, quick would be their demise for only 1 country had ever conquered China, and that was the Mongols under Genghis and Kublai Khan when the Mongols ruled everything all the way to the west at the gates of Europe. They were the only one who succeeded, for nearly 100 Years the Yuan Dynasty Fell, but then the Ming drove them away back into Mongolia. The Manchus would never defeat the Ming Dynasty with its wealth, industry, and its brilliant people. For the ways of Kong Fu Zi, loyalty to state, will never be forgotten by any son of China. The Manchus had broken their seal of trust, they will never be trusted again. Manchuria will be forced back to the forests they came from and they will be pursued all the way to the Da Yang Hai they border, and there they will either surrender, or they will all die. So I say, Fellow Chinese, whether you are Han, Zhuang, Hui, or whatever ethnicity u are, you are Chinese! It does not matter if u practices Buddhism, or Islam, or Christianity or Confucianism, you are Chinese. Rise up and aid the Empire to defend her homeland from the barbaric invaders! For those too elderly or too young to join, practice so that if the day Manchus comes to rape ur wife or children or even grandchildren, u can make them pay. If they come to pillage and destroy your homes, resist and no that the Emperor is behind you in wat u do. Do not surrender to the Manchus! Thus spoke The Emperor Shen Zong Zhu Yiju on the balcony of the Forbidden City, where he has bravely refused to evacuate with the Manchus only 5 miles away from Beijing.
