Stand at attention and salute, the most standard military posture! Cai Bixia faced the path at the end of the bamboo forest, and Xiao Letian was walking up slowly.
Looking up and seeing Cai Bixia, Xiao Letian looked at the lively banquet in Baibu Pavilion, smiled and waved to Cai Bixia, asking her to come over.
Cai Bixia trotted up to the head of state, "Head of the State, Cai Bixia has returned to the team, please give instructions!"
"Okay, I've seen your telegram... I'll give you a word of 'Stay unchanged in response to all changes'! The strategic situation has been decided, so you don't have to worry about the changes in details..."
"No matter who the Tsar sends here, unless he sends another million troops, nothing will change! You completed your mission in Beijing very well this time. It seems that I did not choose the wrong person. You still have a way with diplomacy! "
"After the new year, we will continue to work hard and strive for the successful signing of the treaty..."
Cai Bixia lowered his head and remained silent for a long time before saying, "I...I actually still want to go back to the battleship. I really...can't even dream of it!"
Xiao Letian smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Nine times out of ten, life will be unsatisfactory. Our Chinese race seems to be in full swing right now, but I know our biggest shortcoming!"
"There is still a shortage of talents. Many talents are not available for generations... You are the first batch of students to study in Europe. You are the leaders in this batch. If you don't do it, who will do it?"
"The most important point... our Chinese family started up too quickly. The people who support our government affairs are actually unfortunately not truly elite families..."
"Look at Luo Huo, Sima Yun, Wang Huaiyuan and the others... which one is a big family?"
"I'm not saying that I look down on the elites at the bottom. These elites at the bottom really work hard and are very loyal to the Chinese people... but they really lack a sense of the overall situation!"
"This kind of overall view can only be cultivated by elites from aristocratic families for many years...I'm not talking about money, I'm talking about the sacrifice of knowledge!"
"When it comes to the truly big-scale elites, our average level is actually not as good as that of the Hunan Army. If you have time, go and study the middle-level officials of the Hunan Army. Whose family is not a Manchu Eight Banner nobleman or a Han scholar?"
"A family that has spent its entire life thinking about military affairs naturally raises children with a view of the overall situation... Although your families are isolated overseas, they are just small families in the Ryukyu Kingdom..."
"But knowledge is about understanding. The wealth of a family does not matter how much land it has or how much money it has... it is the education and the way you think about problems from generation to generation!"
"I can only use you kids like a fire brigade... I can't follow your ideas too much, that won't work!"
Cai Bixia tilted her head and thought about her master's words, "Well... it's really like this. When I was in the capital, I came into contact with a group of Eight Banners dudes who were quite forward-thinking..."
"To be honest, I look down on them, they are just fighting cocks and running dogs all day long to eat, drink and have fun... But these are the people who, sometimes when talking about foreign and political topics, can always say one or two very classic words, which are very relevant to the current situation! "
"Now I understand, these people are from family backgrounds!"
Xiao Letian nodded, "Yes, don't underestimate people. The living environment you grew up in... When you were a child, you grew up listening to ghost stories and scare stories about wolves eating people. You grew up listening to your grandparents telling business stories." Will the future be the same for our children?”
"A child who hears how to grow crops and weed every day, and a child who reads and writes every day, will have the same thinking when they grow up?"
"The Eight Banners group is actually not stupid at all. They are just too lazy, too selfish, and too lazy to work... If they are willing to study and endure hardship, coupled with the pattern and tolerance they have developed from childhood, it will be easy to achieve big things. of!"
"Let's go, let's talk while we walk...your master's wife is already worried!"
Cai Bixia understood the master's worries, this is the real wise man! He can see where the current weaknesses and shortcomings of the Chinese people are.
The Chinese have no shortage of talents. The Chinese respect education very much. As long as they are given enough food to eat and some motivation to study, the Chinese will study hard.
However, 99% of the talents that a generation of people have learned through hard work are only at the tactical level, and will never become strategic level!
This has nothing to do with hard work, it has a lot to do with the pattern of family education!
Today's Chinese people are just like a strategic master like Xiao Letian, or an epic great man, leading a group of tactical boys to conquer the world in the forest of great powers.
This is very dangerous. Once something goes wrong with Xiao Letian, the Chinese will immediately have no successor!
But Europe is different at the moment. Cai Bixia has visited Europe. She is a descendant of aristocratic families from the ancient Ryukyu Kingdom, which makes it easy for her to be accepted by those ancient European aristocratic families.
She has visited many ancient castles. Those cultural relics that have been passed down for thousands of years, and mountains of rare ancient books, all silently declare to the world the heritage of this family!
Cai Bixia once came into contact with an old count in Berlin, who spent many years studying the hidden history of the Dark Middle Ages in his ancient study.
Cai Bixia once asked him, what is the use of studying these things?
The old earl smiled lightly and said, "Child...history is the most useful weapon in the world! Whoever controls history can control the future of human civilization!"
"You are the same as us, we are both from a noble family for hundreds of years... Do you know how the nobles protect their status?"
"Just rely on history, these dusty historical truths!"
"We are never afraid of the efforts of ordinary people... Really, I even pity them, because everything they learn is just some half-truths and half-false things that we screen out for them!"
"We will never show them the real world... As long as the historical information they have is not the most detailed, will the judgments and decisions made based on very little information be correct?"
"Hahaha... Those elites in civilian families don't even know who is the real enemy, and what is the truth about the outbreak of the war!"
"This is nobility, and we will be nobility forever!"
Cai Bixia will never forget those wise eyes. She knows very well that the same thing must be completely different in the eyes of ordinary people and in the eyes of such people!
If people want to develop a strategic perspective, it really cannot be developed in one generation or two!
Because children from poor families, because children of common people, really have not received that kind of training, the kind of standing on the timeline of hundreds of years and thousands of years to analyze the problems of the moment!
People with a small structure can only leave the current problems in a timeline of more than ten years or at most twenty or thirty years to judge right from wrong and interests!
This kind of person governs the country? It can only bring disaster!
Note: Brothers and sisters, please continue to reward rice dumplings! We have ranked outside the tenth place for Dragon Boat Festival activities!
At least we can keep the top ten!
