"Head of State! The unknown intelligence is the responsibility of the CIA. I will review it to you!" Director Wang stood up and took the responsibility.
The Northern Bureau couldn't watch at this time. Chun Shisanniang immediately retorted, "I am responsible for the intelligence work in Gyeonggi Province. I did not give advance warning when such a major rebellion occurred. I was derelict in my duty. Please punish me for my crime!" "
Xiao Letian smiled and waved his hand, "Don't be so anxious to take responsibility. I didn't say who I wanted to punish. I just wanted to tell everyone that the difficulties we will face in the future are beyond your imagination!"
"Actually, I had a premonition that something like this would happen. It's not that I'm a magician who can figure things out. I just feel a little emotional about this era!"
"I have mentioned more than once that the industrial revolution has brought tremendous transformation to human society. That kind of power is simply irresistible to a civilized agricultural society!"
"We in China missed the beginning of the industrial revolution, but what is even more terrifying now is that we are about to miss the evolution and upgrading of the industrial revolution again!"
"Steam engines and railways represent the first industrial revolution. The world is currently undergoing huge core changes, and new technologies will soon replace the industrial foundation of the past!"
"Hey... the first industrial revolution is coming to an end, and the second industrial revolution is about to begin... Our Unit Zero in Borneo, and several electric power research laboratories I secretly set up in Europa, These are the foundations of the second industrial revolution in the future!”
"Please remember, no matter how you raise your expectations for the second industrial revolution, I hope you will increase your expectations ten or even a hundred times!"
"That's right, it's such a violent force that can change the world! I can even be sure that during this shock period, mankind will have a super war that has never been seen throughout human history!"
"I can tell you clearly that it is a world war!"
"Such a war will completely change the current territory between countries. The old empire will be fragmented, and many enterprising small countries will counterattack and expand!"
"In the next hundred years... no, no, no, maybe in the next three or four hundred years, the national map of the human world will be roughly finalized within these few decades!"
"Think about it carefully, what a great era of change this is?"
Xiao Letian is right. The upgrade interval from the first industrial revolution to the second industrial revolution has indeed profoundly changed the entire human world!
According to the basic judgment of later generations of scholars, the first industrial revolution began in the 1860s and ended in the 1840s.
However, the time when the second industrial revolution began gradually stabilized from the 1870s to the early 20th century!
There was a transitional period of about thirty years. During these thirty years, all countries were basically exploring the path to the future. Although new technologies have been formed in the laboratory, no one is sure that those new technologies represent the future. Mainstream!
In the past thirty years, if that country is willing to gamble on its national destiny, hit the right technology tree, and greatly improve productivity, then he will be successful!
Overtaking in corners, suddenly emerging!
The unified Germany, Japan after the reform and reform, and the United States, which has accumulated a lot of experience, all gambled on the fate of the country during this transition period!
And the old empires naturally fell apart. The huge Ottoman Turkish Empire collapsed, the vast Tsarist Russian Empire was overthrown, and the Manchu Empire that lasted for more than 200 years collapsed. By the way, China's national destiny also suffered a setback!
Even the Empire on which the sun never sets has been drained of all its efforts and energy during this period of transformation and change!
This was truly an era when demons arose simultaneously. The chaos at that time was simply unimaginable by people in peaceful times!
Xiao Letian has a deep and clear understanding of this major change, so he will never be arrogant and slack off just because he is a time traveler, nor will he act like a fool and think that he can control all the elites of this era!
"I have always believed in the existence of God. Maybe it is not a certain god, maybe it is a kind of regular power that covers the world!"
"The way of heaven is balanced. He has given mankind the most chaotic era of great changes, and then the matching talents of heaven and earth will be born!"
"Chinese people should never be proud. Don't underestimate the heroes of the world because we have been going smoothly in the past few years!"
"Look at the current rebellion. Even I have a hard time inferring who is behind the scenes! Don't think that the law of regressing interests is omnipotent, but who is the beneficiary of this situation now?"
"Now it seems that there are only three beneficiaries, one is Zaichun, one is us, and the other is the British!"
"It's interesting. An uncertain conspiracy and rebellion, but the final beneficiaries are the three parties who never provoked the rebellion. Who is doing good and good deeds?"
"What is this if not a master?" Xiao Letian said with a straight face, "From this matter, the entire Chinese nation must be vigilant! Throw all the arrogance you have developed after the Franco-Prussian War into the Pacific Ocean! "
"From now on, take your actions seriously! Throw away your pride and calm down. No matter how cautious you are, the road ahead will be very difficult!"
Everyone in the conference room stood up and saluted and said, "Yes! I will follow the teachings of the head of state!"
Taking advantage of a rebellion in the Qing Dynasty, Xiao Letian taught his high-tailed ministers a hard lesson and gave him a small whip. However, confusion will always remain. Who is this black hand hiding in the capital?
Xiao Letian also fell into deep thought after the meeting. He deduced many people but felt that something was not right. "That's it, let's leave this matter open to investigation!"
"Anyway, Zai Chun has not stepped down, the fortress plan is still going on, and the fundamental interests of the Chinese people have not been harmed... God knows who will imitate Lei Feng and do good things!"
"You have to hurry up. Before the Spring Festival this year, all localities must complete the work of measuring land and delivering documents..."
Xiao Letian temporarily gave up on tracing the culprit, and the real mastermind was not having a good time at the moment. In the Fifth Prince's Mansion in Chaoyang Gate, Prince Dun couldn't afford to fall ill after the next court!
Prince Dun, who risked his life to save his brother, did not receive any reward from the young emperor. Even Da Sixi, Xiao Sixi and the other eunuchs received benefits, but Prince Dun did not show any sign of it!
Everyone knows that what Yi Pei did today angered His Majesty, and even many officials did not dare to be too close to him when he went to court!
Yi Pei returned to the palace with a long sigh. After eating a few glasses of wine, he felt dizzy in the evening. His family hurried to find the imperial doctor. After looking at it for a long time, they couldn't explain it!
"Your Majesty, Ping Luan suffered from the wind and cold last night, and then he was exposed to the heat at the Weitang Fireplace. Warm and cold were entangled in his heart. Coupled with great joy and great sadness, he suddenly became depressed..."
"Take a few doses of the dispersing decoction first... rest more..."
