C1344 The old road was too impassable!

The old road is a dead end!

Just when Sakamoto Ryoma had succeeded in comforting Zai Chun, on the other side of the ship, the atmosphere between Xiao Letian and his disciple became very heavy. Xiang Ying's question made Xiao Letian silent for a long time.

"Because Zai Chun is very miserable! So, Master, do you want to help him? Help him tide through this crisis, and bring a strong Monarch to the Great Qing? Is that what you want? "

"Please Master, can you find a better excuse to lie to me? Even if you like Zai Chun, do you also like the Qing Dynasty's slave, the Central Plains? What benefits does it have to us, the Chinese people, to make Zai Chun the host of ZTE? "

"Master, don't lie to me. I know you already have other plans in mind. If it involves your secret strategic plan, then I won't ask …" I just want to hear whether or not you are the answer! "

Xiang Ying looked at Xiao Letian with a serious expression and asked: "Master, do you really want to raise Zai Chun to become a middle tier master? Are you really going to continue the Qing Dynasty for a few more years? "Yes or no?"

Xiao Letian did not reply, and only looked at him silently.

Xiang Ying continued to ask: "Alright then, I will change to another method of questioning, may I ask Master … Everything you have done for Zai Chun, was it you who overthrew the entire strategy of the Qing Dynasty? Is it... Please tell me the truth, is it not so! "

"What you did to Zai Chun was all a scam, right? Did you see that the fool was easily deceived and was purposely playing with him? Your goal is to let the Qing Dynasty fall into your trap bit by bit, and then suicide? "

Seeing that Xiao Letian still did not speak, Xiang Ying stomped his feet on the ground anxiously, "You are the leader of the Hua Clan! You are our Chinese Prime Minister! The Chinese people's interests were above all else! "Don't be a woman …"

Sigh … Xiao Letian let out a long sigh, "There are some things that I'm not willing to tell you guys because it's very difficult for you to understand!"

"I once heard a saying that said you were half a step ahead of this era. You are a genius, and one step ahead of this era, you are a madman! "There's nothing wrong with that, because most humans only use their own knowledge to analyze the world …"

"The knowledge that people have learned since they were young, the information that they have learned from all kinds of strange things, they have formed a person's mind … For example, a little landowner class who grew up in the Great Qing Province's pastoral song was unable to understand what was meant by Industrial Revolution and what was meant by productivity! "

"If you told them that the earth was round, they wouldn't believe you at all. If I said that people could fly in the sky, would anyone believe me in the past? But when the hot air balloon appeared in Beijing, it was exchanged for the entire city's worship … "

"At that time, I had already surpassed the common sense of the Great Qing people by a big step, which was why I became a madman, a madman that no one in Great Qing could understand!"

Xiao Letian let out a long sigh. You will never understand the pressure in my heart. Do you know how much of a challenge I have been subjected to? "

"Back then I brought Xiao Hexin and the others and liberated the Ryukyu with my bare hands. Before I failed to succeed, everyone thought that I was a madman … Who would have thought that a small troop of dozens of people suffering from typhoon would be able to successfully attack the Shimadzu Family's 3000 Regiment? "

"When I was going to take my brother to Europa, do you know how many puzzled looks there were? They couldn't understand. Why would I go to Europa when I'm so weak and can't properly develop my own strength? Isn't this courting death? "

Especially when I arrived at Europa and didn't stay there honestly. I wanted to participate in the Pu Ao War and also wanted to fight in Shiqiao uplands. This kind of crazy action, there are many people who questioned me and even now, there are people who call me a gambler!

"In the eyes of those people, everything I do is irrational, it's all madness …" Just as I have said, if I am a step ahead of the era, I will become a lunatic! "

Xiao Letian was also a human. He also had times when he was depressed, where he would be unhappy if everything he did was not understood by others. As the small amount of unhappiness accumulated even more, he was unable to vent it all out as much as he wanted like an ordinary person.

Because he was the king of the Chinese race, his body was covered with too many halos, he could not let anyone see his weakness. So for a long time now, Xiao Letian could only suppress many things in his heart, and suppress them with all his might.

But today, after winning the sea battle, his emotions were extremely sensitive. With the addition of Xiang Ying's thrill from hearing the words of his favorite disciple, he had finally managed to open his mouth.

"There are always some people in this world who like to give advice. They can't do it themselves, but they love to give advice to others! They can only use old ideas to understand the world, and then use the heads of those backward times for hundreds of years to come up with a strategy that he thinks is awesome … "

"Then he would think that what he was thinking was the truth! How self-centered this is! They think that everything in the world should go according to what he imagined... "

"In their hearts, I, Xiao Letian, should be like the emperors of nations in the past. First, I should lay down a small territory to hide, then build a wall to store up food, and engage in diplomacy …"

"One year, three years, four years, slowly filling up the treasury and granary, training it to the level of a hundred thousand, a million, or even more … "When the time is ripe, we will rise up and lead our troops through the counties, provinces, and provinces!"

"Haha, in the eyes of these people, the world is flat. They are constantly expanding the boundaries of their own forces, turning the newly annexed territories into the core region. This is called expanding the borders!"

"When you occupy enough territory and are powerful enough, there will naturally be a swarm of Confucian students who will be the drummer." When you occupy enough territory and are powerful enough, there will naturally be a swarm of Confucian students who will be the drummer.

"But they also haven't thought about what the times have become. This is not the world before the The Age of Great Navigation, this is an era where Earth is gradually shrinking, using the way it was before to change everything, we can only enter into the ancient spiral world where dynasties changed and dynasties changed … "

"Xiang Ying! You also came back from studying abroad, so you should know what this world is like right now. The European powers can't wait for you to walk the same path as China, just like the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. He completely walks the same path as Zhulu Central Plains … "

"What are the results? Yangtze River Basin killed them all, but when your vitality was greatly damaged and you were in internal strife, English and French took advantage of this chaos to reap some benefits … The more chaotic your country is, the more civil wars will occur, especially the large-scale civil wars between the Chinese and foreign races who are the majority of the population. This is what the Western Powers is most willing to see! "

"If you kill them, they will be strong. Their reason is that simple. If you kill them until their heads roll, they will be able to seize the opportunity to infiltrate!"

"The failure of the Balanced Sky Nation and the eruption of the Second Opium War have proven that this old road is unreachable. Other than delaying our National Destiny, it is useless!"

"Hehe …" "Today we attacked the Tanggu, tomorrow we will capture the direct disciple, and the day after tomorrow we will occupy Shandong. Millions of soldiers will attack and fight against the enemy in the battle of the Central Plains, and we will see the power border between the Confucian Scholars with their red mouths and white teeth, this is the feeling of a feather fan, towel, and oar being burnt to ashes!"

"Fuck, those are a bunch of idiots!"
