Fifty years! This is a pessimistic judgment given by Xiao Letian. Perhaps in the minds of scholars who study dynasty changes, this time is too short.
Didn’t you see that the feudal dynasties in ancient China also had what Xiao Letian said, the cancer of class solidification where one or two forces controlled the government for a long time, but they also had a state that lasted for a hundred or two hundred years or even longer!
However, these people did not take into account the changes of the times. Humanity has gradually entered the second industrial revolution, and technology has brought the greatest driving force for the changes of the times.
The great improvement in productivity has doubled the devastation of war, making it increasingly difficult to join the war!
In the future, weapons will be more powerful, easier to operate, and easier to train a soldier to kill... all of which means that the threshold for revolution is getting lower and lower.
Moreover, due to the improvement of transportation efficiency and the advent of globalization, the possibility of mutual interference between countries is also increasing.
In ancient times, it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to rebel. They had to wait for natural disasters and man-made disasters, and they had to wait until the internal control of the court was weak. Only then did they have the slightest possibility.
The rebellious people couldn't even find decent weapons, let alone get funding from foreign powers!
But now this era is different. Rifles have long become a large-scale industrial product, and the cost is falling like an avalanche.
Coupled with the development of navigation technology and the dense railway network and telegraph network, this greatly increased the possibility of foreign forces intervening in the revolutions of other countries.
When the rulers still looked at the problem with old ideas, they did not know that entire ships of arms had been smuggled ashore on the coastline, and countless hungry and cold farmers and workers had already received weapons and ammunition.
The cost of revolution is getting lower and lower, and the difficulty is getting smaller and smaller!
They used to be called rebels, but now they have become guerrillas!
Suppression becomes more and more difficult, and the cost of governing the country becomes higher and higher!
Not only internal troubles, but also external troubles!
The outbreak of world war is an inevitable choice. Can the Chinese take the right path at that time? Anyway, Xiao Letian should be almost dead by then. Who can stop the oligarch capitalists and fanatical soldiers from making huge bets?
Even the powerful Second German Empire, the empire created by Bismarck himself, didn't end in 47 years?
Xiao Letian gave a deadline of fifty years, which is already a lot!
Even the more powerful Soviet Union only lasted 69 years!
The world is no longer the same, and the old experiences of the Middle Ages no longer work!
"How to break the curse that the Chinese people will die within fifty years? The only thing to do is to let the political pendulum swing. No force is allowed to control the swing of the pendulum. No one can lock the movement of the pendulum! "
"At the critical moment when the capital elite is about to evolve into an oligarchic group, there must be a force, a group of people to counter them, and finally interrupt their ambitions, allowing the pendulum to fall quickly to release kinetic energy!"
"If the direction of the capital elite is to the extreme right, then the force that restrains them is to the extreme left!"
"Yes, that's it. I must start from now on to arrange the great changes at that time!"
Xiao Letian is very familiar with his Chinese ethnicity. He certainly knows that three huge forces are supporting the Chinese ethnic group to this day.
The capital businessmen are one leg of the table, the other leg is the Chinese army, and the third leg is the aristocratic power in the Hidden Dragon Plan.
Capitalists and the military are easy to understand, but what is aristocratic power? Is it any different from nobles in other countries?
Of course there are differences. Chinese nobles belong to an honorary class. Except for a very small number of titles, there are hereditary rights, while 90% of other noble titles cannot be hereditary!
Brave soldiers, businessmen with high moral standards, explorers who have made sacrifices, scientists and scholars who have devoted their lives... and even artists who inspire soldiers and civilians can enter the system of six nobles and eighteen ranks!
The capitalists have money in their hands, the army has power in their hands, and the six nobles and eighteen others possess the highest honor and knowledge in the human spiritual world!
These three forces are the three divine needles of the Chinese people. In the future, the pendulum of the Chinese people must move back and forth among these three forces!
Maybe in the future when the proletariat rises, new forces will emerge, but that’s a story for later and can be ignored for the time being!
When the powerful elites of capital are preparing to get involved in the military power and form an oligarchic group, some people in the army must maintain their purity, and these people must unite with the six nobles and eighteen others.
Struggle, we must carry out internal struggle, fight without defeat! Smash the ambition of all capitalists to control the Chinese people and let the pendulum move in the opposite direction.
This process of struggle will definitely be cruel, and it will definitely cause great changes in society. Countless people will even lose their lives, and countless families will undergo earth-shaking changes!
But this kind of labor pain is better than the subjugation of the country, this kind of labor pain is better than the complete solidification of class, leaving no one with any hope of improving their class!
In the end, the struggle must reach a point where the forces of the various factions are balanced, so that the overly ambitious forces can be suppressed, and other classes can rise up. The most important thing is that the Chinese race cannot be divided!
Is it difficult? Very difficult!
Dangerous or not? very dangerous!
Who will do this difficult and dangerous thing, or who will take the lead? This is a big problem that stumps Xiao Letian!
This kind of big chess game, which is related to the life and death of the nation and the happiness of future generations, is not something ordinary people can play! The leader of this kind of struggle must have an indomitable will and a huge reputation of having experienced hundreds of battles!
You must be calm and wise, but also fanatical and radical at critical moments!
Such a person should be an aggregation of a lunatic and an artist coupled with strict self-discipline and military qualities, etc.!
How to choose this kind of leader? There is only one way, choose between suffering and suppression!
Who says Xiao Letian doesn't love Xiang Ying? In fact, no one in the world knows that Xiao Letian really loves this young naval leader!
All the suffering is to achieve Xiang Ying's future, and all the suppression is actually a trial on the long road of life. Will it turn into steel after a hundred times of hardening or turn into ashes after a hundred times of hardening?
Do you want me, Xiao Letian, to be crushed into a waste or a lunatic, or can I be forged into real gold?
"Xiang Ying, Xiang Ying! I will not let you be the future prime minister of the Chinese nation, even for one term!"
"Because you have a more important historical mission to do, a job that is more difficult and dangerous than being the prime minister!"
"That is a life punished by God! Even if you succeed, you will inevitably be crushed and ashes after death!"
"Are you willing to do it? Do you dare?"
