Everyone knows that natural science developed greatly in the hands of Europeans, and the reason why Western civilization was the first to enter modernization is closely related to the explosion of natural science.
Although natural science has become quite popular in Europe, it is very interesting that most Europeans at that time and even today are actually idealists.
Although Citigroup dominated the earth after World War II, their elites still opened and shut up their mouths and said, "God bless America." This is not a habitual colloquialism. The proportion of people with religious beliefs in Europe and the United States is quite high.
Natural science on the one hand, religious belief on the other, arming the hands and the soul. This is the real means for Western civilization to compete for supremacy in the world.
If this is the case in the 21st century, one can only imagine the thinking of Europeans in the mid-19th century. Not to mention that they were not superstitious, these people now worship religion and mysticism as much as Asian nations.
It has to be said that Xiao Letian still has the foundation to be a magician. First of all, his rise from East Asia is full of miracles and incredible. In addition, the mystery displayed by Xiao Letian in the European team fascinated the Prussian senior officials.
Bismarck once discussed Xiao Letian behind his back, "This is a man favored by God. I really can't figure out why he understands Europe so clearly and thoroughly. I am even more puzzled by his strange foresight. It’s as if the future in his eyes is just a piece of transparent glass..."
The iron-blooded Prime Minister Bismarck has always been known for his strictness. It is very unusual for him to say such words. This means that Xiao Letian is almost a god.
Bismarck is not the only one who feels the same way. Prince Carl also feels the same way. Especially now, Xiao Letian actually pointed out some of his recent physical symptoms. These minor problems Carl did not discuss with the imperial doctor. Said.
At this time, Karl's whole person was controlled by negative emotions. In extreme panic, he irrationally drew his sword.
"Are you a devil? I'm going to kill you..." The gem-encrusted command knife is extremely sharp. This is no ordinary thing. This knife has really cut down enemies with the prince in his battles.
When Xiao Letian saw this, he was so frightened that he got into the table and yelled, "Kill people! Where are the guards? Save people quickly... No, no, no, no, no, no, hurry up and call Old Maoqi and Prime Minister Bismarck over..." "
Xiao Letian was so frightened that he crawled back and forth under the table, while Carl, who was red-eyed, kept chasing him. The table in the headquarters was large and heavy. After all, the area required to cover a high-precision military map was quite large. .
"How do you know everything? What kind of devil are you? Why can you accurately tell me about my body's minor problems? And why do you say it will kill me? Xiao Letian...get out of here, I want to An explanation..."
Prince Carl shouted and chased, then stabbed him with the knife in his hand. Xiao Letian dodged around inside, praying in his heart that Carl's soldiers would not rush in first. If that happened, the angry Carl would definitely let his soldiers hack him to death.
"You betrayed your oath! You just swore not to be angry. You swore to God! What you said doesn't count..."
"You are a devil who manipulates people's hearts. There is no need for me to keep my oath to the devil! Since you have already cursed me, why should I keep my promise... Come out!"
"Fart, when did I curse you? Didn't you just say that my predictions were correct? Didn't I already predict the little problem in your throat? How can this be considered a curse?"
Just as the two of them were banging and banging, the officers and guards outside the military tent finally noticed something strange, and a group of people rushed in.
When Prince Carl's guards saw that their immediate superiors were taking action, they subconsciously rushed forward to help, but how could Mr. Long and several other lieutenant officers let Xiao Letian suffer? The good brother pushed the guard aside as soon as he collided with him.
"Lord Protector... Who dares to take action?" Mr. Long's palm was like lightning. He turned over Prince Carl's wrist and used a small hand-to-hand technique to easily grab the command knife.
At this time, Old Moltke also rushed in hurriedly. When he saw that the two groups of people in the headquarters were already confronting each other, he was furious.
"What are you doing? What do you want to do? This is my headquarters, and I am the supreme commander here...Prince Karl, please remember that in this headquarters, you are just a commander of my legion. This is not Berlin. It’s not the palace either…”
Old Karl winked at the staff around him, and a group of people rushed forward to separate the two groups with their bodies, and continued to persuade them in the middle.
At this time, Prince Carl's mood gradually calmed down, and there was a look of regret in his eyes. He was really too excited just now, especially when Xiao Letian said that he was worried about his life. I can't reason anymore.
"I'm sorry, Xiao! I just lost my temper, please forgive me..." Carl panted heavily and seemed to hesitate to speak. Finally, he glanced at Xiao Letian, "I will go back to Berlin now. I really hope you are A liar!"
Karl turned around and left. When he just arrived at the entrance of the military tent, Xiao Letian stopped him, "Your Highness the Prince... Finally, I want to advise you... Don't go to the British doctors, they are really unreliable!"
Neither Old Moltke nor the surrounding officers understood what the two men were talking about. They got into a fight for no reason and then quickly reconciled. Finally, they said that British doctors were unreliable. What the hell was this? What kind of medicine?
Xiao Letian was initially biased against Prince Carl. On the one hand, he was trying to steal his money, and on the other hand, historical records showed that this prince had a hot temper, had always been in the army, and had no political power. experience of.
Xiao Letian naturally stayed away from such people, and Bismarck was the only choice. But through the Battle of Sadowa, especially the prince's apology on the highlands, Xiao Letian changed his view.
This fiery-tempered man actually has a good nature. At least he is very real. He will show it when he hates you and will show it when he likes you. This is the best partner.
In real history, Prince Carl ascended the throne as the German Emperor at the end of 1888, but was soon diagnosed with throat cancer. Later, due to a misdiagnosis by a British doctor, he missed the best opportunity for surgery, and he died after only 99 days in office. life.
Throat cancer that kills people so quickly cannot grow in just a few dozen days. It would take more than ten or twenty years for this disease to develop gradually from its budding state. If Carl can take good care of himself now and With careful treatment, his fate may be changed.
Only Prince Carl in the room could understand Xiao Letian's reminder. At this time, he no longer wanted to refute Xiao Letian or ask any more questions. He just nodded and strode into the night.
The conflict with Prince Carl was the perfect end to Sadowa's bloody day. Xiao Letian didn't know that it was his timely reminder that changed the destiny of the Kaiser who was originally a tragedy in history. Although the illness was not dispelled, But Prince Carl stayed on the throne for three more years.
Not only was it the continuation of life, but because the disease was discovered early and the body was well-conditioned, Carl did not suffer much pain until his death. It was this kindness that made the friendship between Carl and Xiao Letian unbreakable throughout his life.
After the bloody battle in Sadowa, Xiao Letian's most important tasks in Europe were finally completed, and the rest had nothing to do with him. Early the next morning, under the arrangement of Bismarck, the brothers from the special mixed camp boarded a special train and began to move to Hamburg. There were more than 70 medical staff accompanying them, which shows that Prussia attaches great importance to them.
Xiao Letian immediately threw himself into work after returning to Hamburg. Don't think that you can rest after the war. What Xiao Letian has to do now is to seize all the time to communicate with the diplomatic envoys of various countries. After all, the French fleet has approached Ryukyu and is beyond its reach. Xiao Letian's current plan is to put pressure on France through diplomatic means.
Needless to say, Prussia and the United States have a close cooperative relationship with Xiao Letian. During this period, the ambassadors of the two countries have been in secret contact with France, but Napoleon III has never met them.
Don't count on Xiao Letian in Russia. Polar Bear has no good impression of Xiao Letian. The focus of their current strategy is on the Qing Dynasty. Any strong man who appears in the Qing Dynasty is not what they hope for.
The only people who can exert influence on France are the British, but Xiao Letian didn't know how to convince the Queen after much deliberation. The British have always looked coldly on the European continent. Although the Queen and Prussia are very close relatives, this level Intimacy may be difficult to impose on Chinese people.
For several days in a row, Xiao Letian worked during the day and locked himself in the villa all night at night, thinking hard about countermeasures. However, after much deliberation, he had no choice but to pray for the blessings of the Nine Heavens Gods and Buddhas.
"Damn it! France is still too strong now, and there are not many countries that can exert influence on it... Prussia and France have grievances, and the United States has just finished the civil war, and its international status is not that high. Russia can't count on it either. As for Austria? Forget it, I just killed so many people, they wish I would die..."
"Spain, Portugal, Italy...forget it, these countries have no friendship on the one hand, and they don't have much influence on France on the other..."
"Wait! What if I ask for help from the power of Protestantism?" Xiao Letian thought for a while and finally gave up this unrealistic idea. "France has considered itself the die-hard guardian of Catholicism since ancient times, and it has no friendship with the Catholic Pope! "
"Damn it! Do we just have to resign ourselves to fate? This damn thief God, is he always against me like this? I managed to grab an apple, but he always steals a date from me, and he also tries to get through it with great difficulty If the apple I got falls to the ground, can’t it make me feel comfortable for two days?”
The angry Xiao Letian pushed open the window, raised his middle finger towards the starry sky, and shouted, "God, I'll fuck you up!" A classic Chinese curse that shocked the entire villa.
