C243 Hidden Dragon's Roar

feudal monarchy, monarchy, constitutional monarchy, democracy, republican system... Throughout human history, all kinds of political systems were constantly changing, leaving people dazzled.

But no matter how complicated the political system is, it is easy to find common ground, like a pendulum, between the points of separation and centralization.

To form a nation, was definitely a combination of countless different types of forces. It was just like how, after the late Qing of the Tongzhi Dynasty broke the domination of the Manchu, the political pendulum of a nation started to slide down from the peak of authority, and its political structure started to evolve.

The eight flags of the Qing Dynasty, the Hidden Back, the conservative Chinese landowner class, the radical Chinese landowner class, and even the gradually rising influence of capital merchants, as well as the intervention of the very deep overseas Chinese forces, were all entwined and exerting force on each other, beginning to change the political structure of the country.

In the end, it was still a matter of survival. In this world, not only must Qing Dynasty live a good life, everyone else must also share the benefits. In the past, they might not be able to defeat the imperial government, but now that the imperial government had weakened, and the Han people had become stronger.

The most obvious example was the year when the allied army of eight nations invaded Beijing. When Ci Xi declared war on the Myriad Kingdoms, the southeast coast daoyin, represented by Li Hongzhang, Zhang Zhidong, Zhang Huai Xuan, Liu Kun and the others, actually negotiated with the strong individually, refused to accept the Qing Ting's decree, and publicly declared that this was a random killing.

This was the famous event in history concerning the self-defense in the southeast region. It could be seen that at that time, the pendulum that divided power had already begun to speed up, and the Qing Dynasty was already powerless to turn the situation around.

However, the pendulum had its own rules. Once he reached the critical point, the potential energy would begin to be depleted and a new power would be born.

Everything had its limits. When the separation of powers reached its peak, it would be the time when the entire nation would be in the greatest danger. The development of separation of powers to the extreme must be the separation of warlords, it must be a civil war.

It was because of the excessive division of power that caused the great powers to be divided into smaller powers. Every representative of the great powers thought that they were very strong. Who would submit to whom when there was a lack of strength between the two? Since you don't want to accept my challenge, then just fight.

After the war, the Japanese took the opportunity to let the last drop of blood dry. Then, it was time for the history that everyone knew.

Xiao Letian stood at the top of the city like an old monk meditating, he stared at the bright moon above the sea, listening to the sound of the ocean tide, his mind entered an extremely subtle state.

Shi Dakai had left a long time ago, so none of the attendants dared to disturb him. The soldiers a hundred steps away, upon seeing the Prime Minister standing blankly at the top of the city did not dare come over to persuade him.

"There's no mistake, there must be no mistake. China's national destiny and the political pendulum are such mechanical and monotonous repeated movements. And the source of the support for these movements is the human heart …" "It's not just one or two, nor is it hundreds or thousands of people. Rather, the power in the hearts of hundreds of millions of people is changing this world …"

"I understand, I finally understand. After the country's political pendulum jumped through the most chaotic and darkest warlord decree and the national war, he began to rush towards the centralization of power. The people suffering from the war needed the concentration of power, because only with the concentration of power could the civil war be ended and the external discipline be resisted …"

Xiao Letian was finally enlightened, like the bright moon rising from the sea, the bright moonlight sprinkled down from the bottom of his heart, causing all the bewilderment from his previous life to completely disappear.

"Times make heroes, this is times make heroes! The fact that Taizu was able to reach the top meant that he had clearly and accurately seen the position of the Chinese political pendulum and the direction of its power. That was why he was able to stand up … "

"Oh my god!" Could it be that the spring breeze of 1978 allowed that wise old man to keenly see the change in the pendulum's potential energy? He was going to untie the authority? "It was because of him that there would be economic miracles in the next few decades …"

Bang Bang... Bang Bang... Bang Bang... Xiao Letian could already feel his heart beating frantically. In that moment, he had grasped the fundamental laws of history, causing the fog in his heart to be blown away.

The thousands of years of history of the entire Chinese nation flashed before's eyes. He had even personally seen countless hidden dragons in history using their lives to defend this land.

The farthest cry of those who committed crimes against the Han Dynasty lingered in their ears: Yao City, Shun's Land, Yu's Seal. There should be half a chancellor in the court! Thousands of miles of evil and bloody beasts, a thousand years of heroic spiritual peace, how long ago was it? A phrase that inspired China surged in his heart. At that moment, Xiao Letian felt as if he was possessed by a heroic spirit, and his entire being seemed to be assimilated into a history that would make one's blood boil.

"Hahaha, I finally understand. I finally understand why I came here to transcend to another world … "It is the ancestors and heroic spirits who protected this land that chose me. They hope that I can give the Chinese nation a new choice, a new opportunity in this parallel universe …"

"The pendulum keeps swinging, and it never stops. The only thing I, Xiao Letian, can do is to follow the trend. "I want to insure this crazy pendulum. I want him to go to power but not to dictate. I want him to go to power but not to civil war..."

At this time, Xiao Letian suddenly went crazy and shouted at the top of the city, "I know, I finally know! "Ahh!" A long whistle startled all of the Shouli City. Even the Tyrant Ocean Ahead started to strangely release an enormous wave. The monstrous white wave ruthlessly smashed onto the reef, and began to emit thunderous roars.

On the eve of the fourth year of Tongzhi's New Year, Xiao Letian was enlightened as he became a big fan of the Shouli City. From that moment onwards, China's National Aura broke through the ice and finally headed towards a brand-new channel.

The news of Xiao Letian not sleeping at all in the middle of the night and acting unruly spread quickly. Shi Dakai had come to find him early in the morning, but he discovered that Xiao Letian, who had not slept the entire night, was not exhausted at all. A unique glint actually flashed in his eyes.

The moment Xiao Letian saw the Prince, he grabbed onto his hand and said excitedly: "I understand, I finally understand, Duke, I already have the answer to your question, believe me, follow me. Give me some time, I will let you witness a miracle with your own eyes!"

Shi Dakai had already felt the changes in Xiao Letian's body, and a very strange aura made the experienced and knowledgeable King Yi of the heaven gasp for breath.

"Why do you say that, sir? "I have never doubted your ability. I am waiting to see your miracle with my own eyes …"

In the end, he chose the most outstanding three hundred soldiers and went to Europe to observe and study. What Xiao Letian did not expect was that there were actually fifty Japanese soldiers who had also joined in, and Yepingtai and Bing Tai Lang had actually passed the test.

"Sure?" I never thought that you guys would actually be able to get your hands on foreign languages. It seems like you guys have put in quite a bit of effort in this half a year, huh? " Xiao Letian patted her foster sons and son-in-law's shoulders, feeling gratified.

"This is nothing. Father, have you forgotten the identities of these people?" "More than half of them are from sea cuttlefish, so they often come into contact with foreign merchants. At least they have some background …" Bing Tai Lang said.

Xiao Letian thought that it was true, he actually forgot about this matter.

Every soldier received a brand-new Spencer Rifle, spare bullets, a brand-new tactical knife, a military shovel, and emergency medical supplies. They also had to issue two sets of new military uniforms, which represented the national might of the whole of China.

Xiao Letian spent the entire afternoon and night with the Expeditionary forces, personally sending them supplies and personally registering everyone's name and family situation.

"You are the first Chinese army to enter Europe. Your names must be recorded in the annals of history. Work hard, you must not embarrass the Chinese …"

"In the future, I will build a military temple in the Tanggu. I will not only offer my services to the war god of the Chinese nation, but I will also hang your names inside the temple. "Don't be afraid, just go forward bravely. Even if we sacrifice ourselves, our descendants will forever sacrifice you …"

"This trip will take you tens of thousands of miles to Europe, and you will have to float on the sea for three months. Do not forget to learn and train, and learn German from Minister Jonas.

"Bing Tai, you're my son, you represent my dignity. If you lose face for me, you won't come back …"

"Yepingtai, do you still remember what I told you before? Sooner or later, my new army will have a Foreign Legion, and you dozens of people will be the roots of my future Foreign Legion.

Xiao Letian blabbered like a long-tongued woman, but there was no one in the 300 Expeditionary forces who disliked his. On the contrary, when he spoke of love, all of their eyes turned red. They were Xiao Letian's new army, and their relationship was not as shallow as being soldiers to eat, but that night at the Tyrant Blood Fire, their blood had already been smelted together, and they were already family from the inside of their souls.

Everyone was mentally prepared. This might be the last side of their lives, and no one would dare to mock them even if they urinated a little.

That night, all the ships at the Naha Harbor's entrance received the Forbidden Ocean Order. In the morning, Xiao Letian was going to happily send the Expeditionary forces to Europe, and he was also going to conduct a test run for the giant cannon at the Shouli City.

Everyone present was dumbfounded, they never thought that Xiao Letian would actually send student soldier to Europe. That night, Jonas was surrounded by Europeans who came over to ask about more details. However, Jonas only answered with one sentence, "These Chinese people were hired by me to protect my safety. They are Mercenaries, not representative of China …"

The moment of departure was about to arrive. After three consecutive days of hasty construction, the west side of Shouli City's cannon was finally ready to fire. The technicians from the United States were anxiously adjusting and calculating.

"This is a live shooting technique used by the Mr. Xiao to show off its might. We must prepare the flowering bomb … Reduce the weight of the kit and reduce the range to 12 to 15 kilometers. You won't be able to see it from a distance... "Prepare your earplugs, be careful of your eardrums. This is a 280 mm huge cannon, there aren't many in the entire United States. This is definitely the number one cannon in Asia …"

The people on the turret were anxiously adjusting before firing and the wharf was already filled with weeping. Countless Tyrant Chinese and aboriginals, including the settled Japanese, had come to send them off, and those who were about to board the ship were their relatives.

Xiao Letian held the biggest broken Xiao character flag in his hand and shouted loudly, "Xiao Hexin! I will give you this broken flag. Either bring the flag and victory back, or raise this broken flag and everyone will shatter under this flag! "

Xiao Letian almost pulled at his neck as he roared out, "Tell me …" Who can bring me victory! "

All the soldiers on the pier shouted with all their lives, "Sacrifice Xuanyuan with my blood! With my life, I sacrifice China! "

Right at that moment, a bolt of lightning suddenly flashed on the Shouli City's cannon, followed by a thunderous explosion. The 280 caliber shore defense cannon had finally opened fire, the blast from the cannon mouth forming a huge fan, the surrounding trees and shrubs were all blown into pieces by the blast.

"Oh my god, such a long range, this is Asia's most large caliber shore defense cannon!" Countless people looked at the huge column of water on the surface of the sea over 10km away, all of them working hard to draw the cross on their chest in shock.

"Cleaning up the bore … Reloading the gunpowder pack... Prepare for Second Shoot... Reduced range to within ten kilometers... "Fire …"

"Continue to lower the firing range of the medicine until it reaches 7 km. Let these Yang people experience the might of the number one cannon emplacement in Asia. They know that Ryukyu has been armed by Xiao Letian into a fierce tiger … "Fire!"

With the rumble of artillery, the Dutch merchant ship took the three hundred warriors and set sail for Europa.
