C1077 Shawss sharp mouth! (1/2)
Xiao Letian was not willing to talk about the changes in the international political situation in the coming hundred years in detail. He smiled and said to Ma Xiu: ”My dear old friend, I am the Prime Minister of the Ryukyu after all, and I also have my own delegation. We still have our own analysis and judgement of the international situation.”
”I never thought of myself as a god. I was just a politician who was willing to open his eyes to see the world, accept a lot of information and analyze a lot of it. That's all …”
Ma Xiu was stunned, he nodded his head and smiled, but did not ask any further questions, as his skills as a diplomat had the upper hand. But when he returned to his dwelling after the banquet, Ma Xiu's diary recorded this hair-raising day.
”Xiao Letian really lives up to his reputation. He took account of the ancient philosophy of the East and the political outlook of the West. He was able to make his own judgement on the international situation, which is extremely rare among all the political figures in Asia!”
”I thought he was just a local politician, but what happened today changed my opinion. I feel that Xiao Letian is not a local politician, he should be considered a global politician. In time, his achievements might even be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Washington, Lin Ken, Napoleon, Bismark and the others … ”
”When a politician can use a global perspective to analyze problems and has the ability to influence the global political situation, he will no longer be an ordinary politician. There will be another politician in the history of mankind!”
”But he still needs time, and he needs a lot of work. Right now, he's still very weak …” Until here, Ma Xiu's pen stopped for three minutes before he started writing. ”What surprised me the most? Why did his judgement of the future of humans coincide with the judgement of the United States Government? What makes him think that the world wars of the future will be mainstream? ”
Even if Ma Xiu racked his brains, he would still not be able to find the answer to this question. Who would believe that Xiao Letian was a teleporter?
Actually, whether or not it was teleportation was not important, what was important was the accumulated knowledge in Xiao Letian's mind. Why is war mainstream in the next hundred years? This was because the next hundred years would be the development of Polytechnic University, the era of change that was common to all in the Second Industrial Revolution.
It is also a great era for new energy sources to change geopolitics!
The technological developments had multiplied the destructive power of humans, and the spread of Iron-armored battleship in the future would definitely change the pattern of humans splitting up the oceans.
The appearance of internal combustion engines would also change the traditional mainland's strategy. For example, the idea of exchanging time for space that Weng Tonghe believed in, using strategy to drain the enemy's logistics supply, would eventually be eliminated in the era of development of Polytechnic University.
More importantly, oil energy is about to take the strategic place of coal. The geopolitics of the future must be a fierce confrontation around oil fields. The barren lands of the past will be a place for all to fight for, and no country wants its national development to get stuck in the throat of someone else.
With so many changes, what was there to wait for if they didn't fight? It would be weird if they didn't fight!
Xiao Letian took a sip of cold tea and moistened his throat, ”The second point is the conclusion that I made after more than ten years of analysis, that the Hundred Year War in the future will definitely be the mainstream, and that this is my core value, no one can question it!”
”If you don't accept, you can leave under my command. I definitely won't blame you! But as long as you choose to continue working with me, then you must unconditionally accept my judgement, without the slightest doubt! ”
What greeted Xiao Letian in the midst of his cold eyes were countless unsuspecting gazes, firm and warm!
”Very well, I am very pleased! Since we have clearly seen the direction of history for the next hundred years, we need to gather some power and resources to face the future major change of the world! Now do you understand why I'm so structured? ”
”Focus on the power. When the war breaks out, we will have less to lose!”
