For the earth in the 19th century, Britain was undoubtedly an invincible giant. Xiao Letian knew this very well. Unless there was a huge rift within the capitalist world and two world-class wars occurred, no one could even think of challenging Britain. The world's number one position.
From the beginning to the end, Xiao Letian never thought about defeating the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets. This kind of overestimating fantasy can only be seen by those fanatical second-year students at parties and drinking.
The difference in national power is too big. This is not a difference of one or two times, but a difference of square or cubic. It is already a miracle that the Chinese can equal the British in East Asia in the future.
Xiao Letian has no ambition to invade the whole world. He just wants to reverse China's collapsing national destiny and return China to the benign path that it used to be able to protect itself and continue to develop.
If you don't have ambitions, it is enough to manage the land left by the Chinese ancestors, expand appropriately to the first island chain, and establish some bridgeheads outside the second island chain.
Life is less than 100 years old. In this era, living over seventy years old is considered a long life. Xiao Letian did not expect to develop in such a short life.
It was precisely because of the clear strategy that Xiao Letian began a sophisticated plan to dismantle the British. He did not defeat the British but only defeated the fanatical colonialists within the British. This was his brilliance.
Thinking of the angry youths in his previous life, Xiao Letian knew that they all had one thing in common, that is, they had to knock down a whole boatload of people with one stroke. If Britain bullied China, then the whole of Britain would have to be punished. It would be best to punish the country. It would be satisfying to kill it.
Japan once invaded China, so all the men, women, and children in their country must pay for it with their lives. It would be best to engage in genocide, which would be considered revenge.
This kind of thinking is completely the thinking of a loser. Let’s first talk about whether you can succeed. Even if you can succeed, as long as you do such an inhumane thing, then you will become the enemy of the entire human society.
No nation can defeat the whole world, Xiao Letian never denies this!
When facing Britain, don't think about defeating him first, but first think about how to survive under the high pressure of Britain. At this time, you must rely on very precise dismantling techniques.
A great man once said that as long as there are more than three people, they must be divided into left, middle and right. A country is composed of countless human beings with different but somewhat similar ideas. They are not monolithic. How to use their strength to fight against each other? Asked by the university.
During the First Opium War, half of the members of Parliament voted against it. So can these people be used? Are they still enemies?
Capitalists have the original desire to wage war in order to expand the market and monopolize trade, but do those more small businessmen, ordinary businessmen who have not been promoted to monopoly alert, like war?
The nobles may be intoxicated by the joy of the ever-expanding empire and can benefit from it, but what are the views of blue-collar workers who have spent their lives working in factories on war?
Are the millions of people in Ireland who starved to death in the famine also bear the blame for Britain's invasion of China?
Questions emerged in Xiao Letian's mind one after another, and became a difficult question for all Chinese generals at the highest-level military meeting.
Under Xiao Letian's continuous questioning, even the most fanatical officers and stormtroopers of the Battery Team fell silent!
History has given Xiao Letian a very correct evaluation. There are two points in the comments of later historians on Xiao Letian that belong to his magical skills.
One has unparalleled eloquence, while the other has a divine perspective!
Magical skill! This is recognized by later generations of historians, and it is not just Chinese scholars who think so. Famous scholars, including those from the nations that Xiao Letian once defeated, also have the same comment.
A magical skill that no one can defeat. This is a talent that only God possesses!
There are too many forces that are integrated into the big ship of the Chinese nation. This is not a nation that is completely divided by blood and race, but a country that is based on common cultural beliefs and is knitted together by Xiao Letian's superb skills.
Without two magical skills, who can suppress these human spirits? It can be said that if any of these high-level Chinese people are thrown away, they will be the top elites that other countries and nations strive to rob.
Only two days after arriving in England, Xiao Letian's previously questioned strategy had already begun to impress these people.
In the early morning of the East Palace, in the unique British fog, Xiang Ying got up early and did a set of boxing on the lawn. He watched the people cleaning up the grass that had been burnt due to iron cutting last night, and smelled the smell that was still lingering in the air. Confused, the founder of the Stormtroopers couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth with a smile.
He couldn't help but laugh when he thought about how badly the Russian special envoy was burned last night. "Here comes someone! Give me a sandwich and a glass of milk. I'll have breakfast on the lawn..."
Just as he was giving instructions, he suddenly heard a burst of hearty laughter and noise at the door, and then saw Hyoutarou walking in quickly with a stack of newspapers under his arm, his face shining with excitement.
"Hyotarō, what are you laughing at?" Xiang Ying asked.
"Hahaha, look! The British newspapers are overwhelmingly speaking for us. Yesterday's dinner was already judged by them to be an incredible miracle!"
"Oriental cuisine shines, mysterious spices enchant the queen! And here... look, the transformation of ordinary ingredients into magic, the great reversal of ordinary ingredients..."
"And here...the incredible oriental charm, surrounded by dozens of tons of icebergs, accompanied by thousands of miles of picturesque mountains and rivers..."
"This is all praise for us. They introduced all the dishes at this banquet. It was a full page! It was a full page review!"
Xiang Ying grabbed the newspaper and read it at a glance, feeling ecstatic in her heart, "Great, our efforts have not been in vain, and our courtesy to these reporters has finally been rewarded!"
Europe in the 19th century was still a hierarchical society, and reporters were not qualified to enjoy this kind of state banquet. To be honest, their status was only slightly higher than that of the waiters.
They are not qualified to enjoy delicious food, let alone any extra allowances, and even the nobles will not look at them. These people can only take pictures outside the banquet and record everything with pens.
But the Chinese were different. They not only gave them generous carriage fares, but also opened a few tables of running tables outside the curtain. Although it was the kind of dining car with no seats and everyone could eat standing up, this was a rare sign of respect.
The dishes given to them were all the same delicacies as the big shots, and the quantity was larger. These reporters often took a few photos and then went behind the curtain to taste the delicious food, and then rushed in to continue the interview when the place became lively.
The goodwill was finally repaid, and the respect given out will be returned with the same courtesy. Early this morning, these golden pen holders began to reciprocate and express their gratitude to the Chinese people.
