Seeing that Xiao Letian was a little angry, Wang Huaiyuan quickly stepped forward to smooth things over. ”Actually, it's not that everyone objects to your policies, Leader. Those people just feel that our Chinese clan has just started their career and needs a lot of money to do so. First, we should ensure national security and that's our top priority! ”” No, no...

”Right now, the time is not right for us Chinese to be at ease yet. There are Western Powers outside eyeing us covetously, and within them, there are stubborn Qing Dynasty who are not willing to admit defeat. The country has not been unified yet. It makes sense to invest more in the military and industry at this time of year. ”

Sima Yun quickly replied, ”Yes! The situation is difficult. We have to look at the important end first. Those brothers didn't say that compulsory education was a useless policy, but rather, they wanted to know if it was possible … They just said they couldn't wait. ”

Xiao Letian laughed coldly, ”The situation is difficult? Was the situation really difficult? As many difficulties as we Chinese face, do we have the same difficulties as Prussia? ”

”In 1701, Frederick III, Marquis of Brandenburg, supported the Austria to declare war on the French Bourbon dynasty in exchange for the title of King.”

”Frederick III was crowned as the King of Prussia Frederick I in Konigsberg. From then on, she had a history of nearly 200 years of struggles in the Prussian Kingdom.”

”Nearly 200 years! What do you think Prussia is living? Is it really better than what we Chinese have now? ”

”Don't forget, just before Prussia was founded, Europe had just finished 30 years of war. It was a world war by religious gimmicks. ”

”In this war, the entire German Empire was completely dismembered and dismembered. They were the countries that suffered the most severe injuries. The entire Germany has lost 60% of its population, you can imagine just how tragic this war was. ”

But the bad luck wasn't over yet.

”In 1708, a plague claimed another third of Prussia's population. God was merciful enough to kill only a third of Prussia's population, not all of it. Norway, by contrast, has had 90 percent of its population taken by the plague! ”

”Moreover. Prussia's geographical position is so poor that not only is its territory split into several extremely difficult to defend, but it is also surrounded by Poland, the Austria, Sweden, Saxony, the Hanover and other countries with ulterior motives. ”

”Of course, don't forget about the. On October 27, 1806, Na Polunbonaba captured Berlin and the whole of Prussia was occupied by the French army.”

”Ah, four sides on one side!” The wind and rain were swaying! This was the reality that the Prussian Kingdom had faced for the past two hundred years. If you think about it carefully, are we really facing more difficulties than the Prussian? ”

”Under such harsh conditions, the Prussian did two things that made them stronger.”

”First, of all the countries in Europe, the first one to achieve universal and complete access to compulsory education is based on Martin Vanger. The compulsory education of Lud's Protestantism thought and modern scientific and cultural knowledge. Even the enlightened thinkers of Western Europe could not help but sigh. The compulsory education for all that the enlightened have been shouting about for decades has been first realized in Prussia, which is regarded as a very conservative barbarian! ”

”Second, reform the Junker landlords to make them a proud, calm and well-trained officer class. When the French aristocracy was immersed in the ball of the Versailles, and the Polish aristocracy had nothing to do but quarrel, the Prussian aristocracy became almost all officers. In the next seven years of the war, the Junker landlords were so destitute that if it had not been for the great sacrifice they had made, Prussia would have been destroyed in 1762. ”

”Frankly speaking, there are two things. The first is education, and the second is military training.”

”Let me be more direct!” In this world, if you are a poor loser, how can you change your fate? ”

”Learn from Prussia! First, you need to study more. Second, you need to practice martial arts diligently! Only these two things can change your fate. ”
