1840Indian rebirth

How should I describe the relationship between the Pawnees and the Apaches... Although they are not in love with each other, they are at least inseparable.

How deep is the hatred?

Specifically, at a certain period when the hatred between the two tribes was at its peak, they would even cook and eat the captives of the other tribe to show their hatred.

However, that was more than a hundred years ago. Compared with the period when they took each other's captives, the relationship between the two tribes has now become much more relaxed.

Moreover, after entering the 19th century, the Pawnee and Apache people had a common enemy-the Arapaho people, and the relationship further eased.

Despite this, the relationship between the two tribes is still tense. According to common sense, it is impossible for a Pawnee clan to defect to an Apache tribe.

But obviously, this is a Pawnee clan that is at the end of its rope. They have just been attacked by the Cheyenne people and suffered heavy losses. There are only sixty or seventy people left in the clan.

Moreover, it is now winter again, the land in the northwest is white, everything is silent, and no one is willing to help this poor little clan, not even their brother clans.

They had no choice but to flee to Sleeping Bear City, hoping that the Apache Sky Sons would be as kind as the legend.

The horse whistle accepted them.

"As long as there is enough food, the plains tribes are willing to accept all aborigines." Ma Shao said to the chief of the Pawnee clan, "Of course the Pawnee tribe is no exception."

"We are extremely grateful, noble son of the sky, you are the most merciful person in the world!" Chief Pawnee, who survived the desperate situation, could indeed be described as crying with gratitude. He knelt on the ground and said.

Ma Shao barely understood Pawnee, but even before he translated on the rainy day, he could guess what the Pawnee chief was talking about.

Chief Pawnee expressed his gratitude repeatedly.

Ma Shao said at this time: "You can live and work in Sleeping Bear City, just like other residents... However, I also want to warn them that when they enter Sleeping Bear City, they are Apaches. They must learn the Apache language and learn the Apache language.

Loyal to the Apache."

"You must not be a traitor, even if your former chief asks you to betray. There is only one fate for traitors, and that is death. Do you understand?"

Mashao knew that it would be difficult to turn all the indigenous people into Apaches. But he had no other way. After all, there was no consensus among the Indian tribes, and there was no consensus in history.

Unlike the Eurasian continent, almost any country can find an awesome father from ancient books to recognize. Regardless of whether he is a relative or not, as long as he has some connections, he can then use his name to shape identity or implement expansion.

But the Indians don't have it. The Indians don't even have writing. How can they identify their father from ancient books? They can't identify the British or the Spanish.

Using "Indian" to create an identity is not enough. "Indian" and "Indian" are the same word. Columbus regarded North America as India, so he called the indigenous people of North America Indians. Mashao did not want to be regarded as an Indian.

In fact, in later generations of America, "Indian" was also regarded as an unfriendly term by the indigenous people, and they basically would not refer to themselves as such.

The concept of Aboriginal people is okay, but the problem is that this name does not sound like a whole, and Mashao must promote unification. Since the language has been unified into Apache, what difference does it make if we just call them Apaches?

.

"Understood." Chief Poni could only agree. In fact, after going through a series of difficulties, he did not feel that this was a harsh condition.

"I'll take you to the living area." Ma Shao stood up and said, and then walked out of the hall with Rainy Day. Chief Poni quickly followed and then called the tribesmen.

"You guys can set up tents here for the time being, and we will allocate houses to you later." Ma Shao pointed out his hand.

Chief Poni was stunned for a moment: "Mian Xiong wants to give us a house?"

Ma Shao smiled: "Of course it's not for free. If you want to have a house to live in, you must meet certain requirements in collective labor."

"Okay." Chief Poni nodded as if he understood. He didn't know what collective labor meant.

Then it was time to set up tents and conduct a census. With the help of the rainy day, the horse whistle completed the census of every Pawnee, recorded their information, and also allowed them to remember their appearance.

Dozens of Pawnee people ended their flight and lived in Sleeping Bear City.

Unlike the Comanches they had admitted the previous winter, the Sleeping Bears showed little reaction to their inclusion.

Thanks to the brainwashing power of religion, and under the repeated propaganda of the Spiritual Enlightenment Sect, uniting and absorbing all indigenous people has become one of the most unshakable political correctnesses in Sleeping Bear City.

Moreover, in the process of dissemination, this idea also derived a set of racist theories.

Neutral theory.

In this racist system, the yellow race to which Indians belong is regarded as the noblest race and is called "medium color people". Black and white people are "extremely colored people" and are not as good as medium color people.

human.

Specifically, the Sleeping Bears who hold this view believe that white people have wisdom but no morals, because white people have powerful technology but use it to kill indigenous people, making them the most evil and dangerous race.

Black people have morality but not wisdom, because black people have not massacred indigenous people, but they obviously have no technology, and they are a race worthy of sympathy.

The yellow race, whose skin color is in the middle, is a combination of morality and wisdom... As for why the yellow race Indians lag behind, it is mainly because they chose an overly benevolent path in the past.

Now that the Indians have corrected their path, they will surely return to their rightful place.

This theory of seducing people is full of loopholes. Not to mention scientifically, it is untenable even at the level of logical common sense.

But it is vital, becoming more and more popular, and promoting the integration of different tribes in Sleeping Bear City.

In the chief's hall.

"How do you plan to deal with the theory of seducers? This theory is not in the scriptures, but it is becoming more and more popular." When Yu Tian asked about this, he looked at Ma Shao, "From what I know about you, you don't like it.

racism."

Ma Shao nodded first: "Yes, but do you know why I don't like racial discrimination?"

"Why?" Yu Tian didn't guess, but asked directly.

Ma Shao: "Because in my opinion, people can be modified. Not only their habits and thoughts can be modified, but their basic... physiology can also be modified."

He almost mentioned genes, until he suddenly remembered that there should be no concept of genes at this time.

Ma Shao continued: "For something that is so easy to be transformed and must be transformed, it makes no sense to compare it with its original, unmodified form."

Rainy day then asked: "So you plan to ban this kind of thinking?"

"No." Ma Shao thought for a moment, "The cost of banning ideas is always very high. We don't have to deny it or admit it. Just let the Spiritual Enlightenment Sect promote another kind of thought, which is what I just said, human

plasticity."

"Human innate qualities are like the original shape of clay. Although there are differences, they are not worth mentioning. We can knead a piece of fresh clay at will and shape it into the shape we want."
