The Chinese nation was the most successful farming civilization in the history of mankind. No one dared to say that the Chinese people were the number two farmers.
Before the The Age of Great Navigation, in the years when farming culture was the main thing, no matter how many dynasties the Chinese people changed, no matter how cruel the war was, they could always recover in the end after mastering the core competitiveness of farming.
It was still the most powerful country in the Middle Ages, the world's number one GDP!
However, there were disadvantages to being advantageous in everything. The farming civilization had always been lacking in terms of military prowess, not because the Chinese were born weak, but because the farming civilization was too developed, causing generations of Chinese to lack the training to wage war!
In the rich and polite countryside, there were very few people who trained their killing techniques every day, and they were not the kind of people who could not even survive if the white snow people lived on. Humans did not need to fight with wild wolves for food, nor did they need to be afraid of other tribes coming to annihilate their entire tribe!
Without those worries, the farmers would naturally be peaceful and happy!
Generation after generation of idyllic scenery would wear down people's martial spirit. Moreover, the more stable the Central Plains Empire became, the more people would be able to stop being martial artists!
The world is at peace, why are you studying martial arts? Would it be difficult to increase the governance of the imperial court?
There were too many reasons for the lack of a martial spirit in a people's body. It was only in the end that a few foreign races took over the Central Plains and ruled over a majority of the Han people.
How to turn the situation around, how to make up for the thousands of years of losing the Chinese martial arts short board?
Xiao Letian gave the answer, ”Everything is related to industrialization, while everything is related to increasing productivity!
”What if the Chinese are not strong enough? Everyone in the Prussian Nation? Several generations of people became soldiers, and in the end, their national character was completely changed! ”
”This special case can still be used in a small population of a single people. China has such a large body size and so many ethnic groups that it is very responsible … ”You can do all the people in this situation?”
”There is only one way left, and that is to accept industrialization, or even lead it, relying on the power of technology and machinery to compensate for the weakness of the martial spirit!”
”Farmland culture is good at building, and developing industries to increase productivity. This is a skill of the Chinese people!”
”It's clearly the most suitable for a Chinese character, but you don't want it? You want to use a large blade and a long spear to fight against a ton of steel? ”
Xiao Letian rapped the small blackboard hard and said, ”All the words of deceiving the Chinese not to develop their industry and not to raise their productivity were all with ulterior motives!”
”The purpose of those people saying these words is to hope that the weakness of the Chinese martial arts spirit will never be replaced!”
”They just hope that the Chinese are still weak and weak. It's good to see the Nanshan every day to gather the chrysanthemums and gather the fences. It's great to see people writing and painting everyday!”
”Isn't it enough to be a slave forever and pursue the small fortune of being ruled?”
”The ambition of a wolf is obvious!”
Xiao Letian's theory had already been accepted by the Chinese, including Ceng Guofan and a group of enlightened Chinese officials! It was precisely because Xiao Letian had a complete and detailed revival plan in his hands, and even had a mature set of theoretical support!
Only this way would the top politicians of Zeng Zuo be convinced, and they would be willing to cooperate with Xiao Letian's strategy!
In the end, Zai Chun was still the one who had to decide which cities the fort planned to open, and Zai Chun was also the one who had to clean up the local forces in the Kingdom of Qing.
