This is the curse of the time traveler. Blessings and misfortunes depend on it, and misfortunes are caused by blessings! Travelers have advantages, but time travelers also have disadvantages!
The advantage is simple. He can understand the future development direction of technology, military, and geopolitics, and then make arrangements in advance to take advantage!
Needless to say, how much intelligence time can be saved in fighting alone? Your opponent can't guess at all. Xiao Letian has actually seen through your trump card.
What are the best weapons in the arsenals of European countries? On the road to improving military science and technology, which of them have taken the wrong path, and which of them have taken detours?
Even the Europeans themselves don’t know this, but Xiao Letian knows!
Just like the Zhiyuan class battleship. In fact, in real history, this design should be called the Dreadnought class. Naval history can be divided into the pre-dreadnought era and the post-dreadnought era!
The formulation of this standard was worked out bit by bit by various countries, especially the disastrous defeat of the Qing Dynasty's Beiyang Navy in the Sino-Japanese War of 1884-1894, which made Europe realize that the design of ironclad ships like Dingyuan and Zhenyuan was flawed!
Later, lessons were learned and tactics were changed, and this was the post-dreadnought era!
Humanity spent hundreds of millions of taels of silver to get around this huge detour, but Xiao Letian took a shortcut just by relying on this memory!
In the Battle of East Frisia, the victory of the Zhiyuan was actually a victory of the design era, which fully advanced the design style of the Dreadnought level by several decades!
Not to mention the upgrade of various individual weapons, airships joining the battle, and the introduction of special forces ideas!
Everything laid the foundation for the early victory of the Chinese people, but this shortcut model has created a huge cancer today!
That is the blind arrogance pervading the Chinese military, especially the navy!
Victory came too easily. The Chinese army is immature. They have not experienced the kind of super tragic war in which millions of soldiers and civilians were killed or injured!
The smooth journey gave them arrogant and arrogant thoughts!
This is the core of all tragedies. The militarism that the stormtroopers believe in is actually the superstition that military power is omnipotent and that they are invincible!
Looking back on the previous World War I and II, militarism was able to take the initiative in Japan and Germany, which must be related to the smooth victory in the previous period.
Needless to say, Germany has always had more victories than defeats on the battlefield since the Franco-Prussian War! Although Germany was a defeated country during World War I, the Germans refused to accept it!
Because the victory of World War I was based on the fact that the German mainland was not damaged at all, Britain, France and the United States did not counterattack the German mainland at all.
It was the revolution and severe economic crisis that broke out within Germany, and when we came back and saw the United States joining the war, we reluctantly surrendered!
Look at the entire World War I. In fact, Germany fought on French soil and on the soil of Tsarist Russia, and it harmed other people's crops!
This illusion of victory is very easy to breed militarism. In the early days of World War II, Germany was still going smoothly, and it still had this curse!
Needless to say, little Japan won the Sino-Japanese War, the Russo-Japanese War, chose sides to win in World War I, and succeeded in annexing Manchukuo before World War II!
All the way is victory, victory, victory. Can the military power not expand? Hirobumi Ito is the last person in the Japanese civilian system who can suppress the military.
After his death, Japan ran all the way on the road of imperialism until it crashed into pieces! I got two mushroom eggs!
Past experience guide for the future! Xiao Letian knew very well that the Chinese's previous series of victories would also trigger the rise of militarism.
To put it bluntly, if the war goes too smoothly and the victory is always won, it will cause hallucinations in the minds of a generation of people!
Once you encounter a conflict, choose to fight first. Anyway, we will never lose!
Use force to beat people and subdue others, resolve all conflicts and crises, resolve all economic and financial risks, and continue to expand and increase increments to satisfy the rising desires of internal groups!
It’s a very familiar recipe! Later generations of Americans, the sun never sets in Britain at this moment, Germany and Japan in World War II...don't they all have this shadow?
"Haha...are all of you possessed by a demon? Who told you that a nation will never lose? How can it always win?"
"This is something that goes against the laws of heaven and nature. Why do you have such wishful thinking in your hearts?"
"It's me, Xiao Letian, who is incompetent! It's me, Xiao Letian, who is without virtue! Why do I lead you to fight so many victorious battles? Just to raise a bunch of war lunatics?"
"Do you support a bunch of war maniacs and aggressive gamblers like you? If the Chinese civilization only relied on this to survive, how could we have lasted for thousands of years!"
Hustle... Everyone present knelt down and said, "Captain, please calm down..."
"Stand up! Did I tell you to kneel down? When did the Chinese people go back to the old, useless era? Get out of here..."
Xiao Letian rushed up and kicked them over, "Stand up! I don't want you to kneel in front of me, but secretly oppose me behind the scenes!"
"What kind of hypocrites do you think you are? What kind of hypocrites do you think you are..."
Fatty Jin, who was rough-skinned and fleshy, didn't care about being kicked twice, rushed over and hugged the head of state's thigh, crying, "Head of State, please calm down... Head of state, please calm down... I know why the head of state is angry!"
"You are angry that we don't understand your thoughts... We cannot understand the essence of your true strategy... You are dissatisfied with our poor understanding and too many selfish thoughts!"
"The head of state is hiding well... I understand your plan... You fake your death and hide in this savage island, and then let the wind go out. The purpose is to make these four poisonous boils grow crazily!"
"Let those people show up... Let's go back and squeeze out the pus and blood... I understand, I understand the head of state calms down..."
Ah... Xiao Letian spurted out all the suffocating breath in his chest. He slumped on the chair and pointed at the barrel of whiskey whose ice cubes had melted!
Goldeneye Snapper quickly poured the wine to Xiao Letian and sent it over. Xiao Letian's mood finally stabilized after a gulp of half a glass of strong wine!
"Fat Jin is right... I am indeed impatient... Why don't all the Chinese people understand my feelings!"
"All my plans are not secret. I have found a way out for the two poisonous boils of feudalism and capitalism!"
"What is the purpose of my Hidden Dragon Project? Isn't it just a hidden economic empire that controls the lifeblood of the world? I let these heroes join the Hidden Dragon Project. Everyone holds shares in each other and jointly controls new technologies and new energy sources in the future. New industry!”
"We hold shares in each other and support each other to build a hidden empire that is not discovered by the world!"
"As long as you can enter the world of the Hidden Dragon, your descendants will stand in an invincible position for generations to come! Why covet the vain reputation of a noble?"
"To make money, you need to make endless money! What's the point of being a capitalist who always wants to do monopoly business?"
"As for those poisonous boils of nationalism and militarism, they shouldn't do it... How many times have I taught them that a world war sweeping the globe will break out on these two points in the future!"
"That's not millions of people losing their lives! That's tens of millions or hundreds of millions of people losing their lives!"
"Our Chinese nation's strategy for the next hundred years is not to mix this... but to defend our continent of more than 10 million square kilometers, the first island chain I conquered, and the base areas in Nanyang!"
"Just keep it tight... Just keep it tight, please... After their war is over, why don't we pick up what's already there?"
"Why don't you understand my painstaking efforts?"
