Gordon had no way to refute what Sai Mouerbeike said. As a explorer who was destined to be recorded in history, this person's knowledge far exceeded that of ordinary intellectuals.

It could also be said that in the 18 s, those who were able to become great scholars were able to understand science, understand history, understand human nature, and understand all kinds of languages … If one was not a general practitioner, they would not be called explorer.

These people all had a pair of crafty eyes, and their observation skills were unbelievably sharp. They would never think that the problems they faced would flow over the surface.

As they were gradually deep in discussion, time slowly flowed by, the temperature outside the hyacinth had already dropped to -35 degrees Celsius, yet the temperature inside the hyacinth was still maintained at around zero degrees Celsius.

It looks like the special forces survival tactics left behind by the Chinese are very successful and worth popularizing!

At this moment, the camp was completely silent. Even the northwest wind that had been howling out in anger had disappeared, and after two hours of strong winds, hundreds of them were flattened by the snowflakes. From afar, it looked like there were only a few hundred more protrusions on the ground.

It was a very weak candle light, very weak, but in the absolute darkness of Horseshoe, it could be seen with a single glance.

The horses formed a circle, leaning against each other to keep warm against the winter night, and the humans had to rely on the power of natural science and the harsh winter.

Suddenly, one of the hyacinth moved, and the snow on the surface of the entrance was moved by a big hand wearing gloves, following that, a rolled up cannon ball extended out and firmly inserted itself into the snow.

Gordon held onto a candle and stuck it out, igniting the fuse very quickly. A stream of flame shot out from the middle of the air and exploded at a height of around ten metres, releasing a bright red flame that bloomed in the middle of the night.

"Success …" I hope that Zuo Zongtang's cavalry can find us … "

Returning to the hyacinth, Gordon rubbed his hands together with all his might. Just a moment after he lit up the flame, his hands had already turned numb from the cold.

The temperature difference between inside and outside of the hyacinth was too great. A cold temperature below -35 degrees Celsius was not something an ordinary person could withstand!

"So cold... Too cold... "Samuel, what do you think is the root cause of this?"

Seeing how cold Gordon was, Samuel hurriedly passed Gordon a bottle of wine. "Drink a mouthful …" "Like I said before, the key to determining the foundation of a civilization should be the characteristics of the lower class …"

"You have to remember, in the end, the true appearance of a nation is not determined by its elites, but by the lowest class, the illiterate …"

"What kind of characteristics do these people share? Then you will be able to figure out the characteristics of this race!"

"Look at Europe. Although it has been baptized by rational thought and natural science has been recognized by the mainstream of society, but what about our people? "It's still an iron prison controlled by religious thought …"

"Ignorant farmers, what do you talk about by the fire? "Actually, it was no different from the Middle Ages, and it was still a vampire, a witch …"

"These are the topics that the lowest level illiterate people chat about every day. They are also an important cornerstone of the battle situation's thinking... God, angels, dragons, knights, Norse myths... "It's all these …"

"What if you go a little bit higher and you get about seven or eight hundred words, basically getting rid of the illiterate people? These people might be talking about Grimm's fairy tales, the Atlantic sea monsters in the newspapers... Of course, there's also the strange stories made up by explorer like us … "

"The gold mountains of Africa, the cannibals of Amazon, the strange beasts of ancient times... It's all these things, at most, it's just the adventurous story of the The Age of Great Navigation … "

"Only people who have received higher education can consider natural sciences, historical humanities, political economy, military strategy in their lives... "Wait, wait, wait!"

"And how much of Europe do these people make up? "One in a thousand!"

Samuel suddenly sat up with a serious face. "But..." In China, in this Eastern circle of civilizations, I've discovered a phenomenon that is completely bizarre to us in Europe... "

"What is it?" Gordon forgot about the chilblain on his hands, and stared at Sai Mouerbeike with wide eyes.

"History! That's right, it's a very terrifying historical popularization rate! "

These words caused Gordon to be stunned, and he was unable to react for a long time. However, the example that Samuel gave Gordon was enough to wake him up.

"My friend, look closely at Europe and China, the two lowest levels of society... To take a simple example, the poorest bistro... "

"When the illiterate and destitute people spend a little money to drink the worst wine, when they are drunk, carefully observe the topic of their conversations and you will find that things are different …"

"What are these people at the bottom of Europe talking about? Either complain, be it from the boss, the society or the family... "Or they talk about women. Their minds are full of all sorts of lowly women. They all think that way …"

"There are also weird legends. Zombies, vampires, spells …" "The ancient Greek and Nordic legends …"

"Talk, talk, talk until the end, when most of the time is spent fighting or drunk to death …"

"But it's not the same in China... I find a great deal of history, politics, military... These are plural topics! "

"Can you imagine? An old farmer who didn't know how to read would tell his neighbors about the founding of the Han Dynasty thousands of years ago … "The veterans at the border will chat with others. The most important part of Gansu's military defense lies in the Wu Hen Ridge …"

"If you meet a poor scholar scholar, he might be poor to the point of ringing the bell, but he can reconstruct every detail of the battle on the map for you …"

"God, what a terrible power this is... This kind of behavior does not exist in Europe! "

"The whole society is inverted, the things that are loved by the people of the lowest class in China can only be played by the top aristocrats in Europe!"

"My Gordon, may I ask if your butler is illiterate? "Then let me ask you, can such an educated man restore the Punic war in Rome?"

"Will the tavern drinkers who drink and steal women know how Europe fights Attila the Whip of God?"

With this sentence, he reminded the man in his dreams, causing Gordon to instantly say in shock, "What you said is correct, when I was helping the Qing Ting in the war, I also cooperated with them before …"
