Ci An was so angry that he fainted. Zai Chun hurriedly rushed over to support the empress dowager.

The empress dowager had an imperial physician at her side waiting for her at all times. As long as she summoned her, it would only take three minutes for her to make a diagnosis. The experienced imperial physician could only use a few silver needles to stab her.

She hadn't fainted in the first place, but now that she was dazzled, her blood pressure stabilized and she felt safe!

Zai Chun quickly patted the empress dowager's back and comforted her in a small voice, "Empress Dowager, don't be anxious. There are also ignorant barbarians, long-tongued women and the like who haven't even read books. Don't believe me when I speak nonsense …"

As Zai Chun was being enlightened, he gave him a meaningful glance!

Cai Bixia sighed helplessly, "Why must the empress dowager be like this, doesn't this Beijing's Eight Flag idler not have enough words to scold other countries? English, France, America … Including the Chinese, they are all cursing us to death! "

"This world is very fair. Just because this Great Qing is willing to casually curse at other nations, doesn't mean that other countries can't do the same?"

"The Führer once said that being angry at someone else's words was the stupidest thing he could do... This is torturing yourself with someone else's mistake! "

"No one is better than when everyone talks about themselves. There are three other families that hate us. A member of the family is even secretly cursing! "

"What's more, there are different races with different languages!"

"Cursing is healthier, if one is truly angry because they are scolded, such a person would not have much future prospects, and would not be able to accomplish anything big!"

Was Ci An's blood pressure higher because of being scolded? Actually it wasn't, Ci An didn't care about the foreign devil's curses at all. What she cared about was that she had already accepted the latest ideas, so she knew Xiao Letian was right!

This was the thing that Ci An was most afraid of. She knew that the Reformation Technique was an irreversible trend of the era, but she was truly afraid of changing it.

"I... I know I can't do that... They all believe in the Divine Buddha, and the identity as the son of the His Majesty cannot be lost! "

"What if you forget this fundamental thing... The world will fall into chaos … "The will of the people is utterly lost …"

"Child, listen to me …" You have to advise Xiao Letian as well … If a person does not have some respect for the divine being above them, how can that person have any bottom line? "

"A man who has failed in his cultivation is like a bolt of lightning in the dark. Who can control the heart of a common people when they are alone?"

"If people do not have respect for them, then they will do anything bad … It will be a hellish scene then! "

"Empress Dowager …" Zai Chun felt wronged and said, "This son doesn't dare to refute the Empress Dowager's logic, but in this era, good people are not allowed to live!"

"We want moral conscience, but there must be warship cannons to protect it! Now, the key question is not whether we should reform them, but whether the strong ones outside are getting stronger day by day! "

"They will hit us! Our first goal now is to not let them bully us again! You should at least have the power to protect yourself! "

"What I want is the power to protect myself. As long as we have the ability to tie with foreign devils, I can continue to request for Heaven's conscience!"

"This son does not wish to abolish Confucianism, this son wants to protect himself with the power of a Great Qing!"

"Why is it that you can't understand so little of the requirement? Do we really need to live on? and then think about something else... "Why do you still not understand?"

Seeing Zai Chun's anxious look, Ci An pulled his hand and said, "Ah, my child … Couldn't he just buy it with money? The Queen Mother will save you some money by eating the veggies. Let's buy the Gun cannons and train the new troops! "

"There are a lot of people in Great Qing … Can we train an army of a million? Isn't it enough to be able to tie with foreign devils? "

"No way!" Zai Chun's eyes were filled with red tears as he said, "No! No! No! "Absolutely not …"

"You guys don't know anything, you don't even know what the law of the jungle is!"

"Will the foreign devils sell us their best weapons? That's impossible, they can only give us eliminated weapons! "

"Who would help a competitor without any reason?"

"What's more, the strength of this country is not just manifested in guns. The key point is to have productivity!"

"We have to be able to build our own steel, ammunition, battleships, trains... This series of things, when combined, can only be called a country's strength! "

"A million troops isn't enough to make a strong country!"

Ci An was so annoyed by Zai Chun that she anxiously waved his hands, "Then what do you think we should do? These things are not something that can be done in a day or two! "

"But once you start doing these things, you'll run into resistance! I is afraid that before you can do anything, your New Deal will fall apart! "

"Ruling a country is like cooking a small fish. I've taught you this from a young age, why don't you understand?"

Zai Chun really hardened his heart after eating such a heavy burden, "No way! It's because too many people are afraid of wolves and are afraid of tigers, and because they know that this is a difficult task, no one is willing to do it! "

"If you don't do it, I won't do it. No one will do it … "This last one will never be done!"

"We cannot continue on the old path. If we continue, the Great Qing will really die …" Empress Dowager, do you know that the foreign devil's war prowess is growing day by day? New technologies are appearing every year, and new weapons are appearing every year!? "

"When the British and French combined forces attacked the Beijing, their cannons were even pre-loaded! Three to five minutes to fire a shot, but now that the Franco-Prussian War is under way, the Krupp cannon is fully loaded... "

"Two shots in a minute, and more than twice the range of a French cannon!"

"Ah, Imperial Mother! Think of that scene. If such a cannon were assembled on the land of my Great Qing, how would we fight it? We're not a match at all! "

"Right now, the range and firing speed of all the cannons in the Qing Dynasty are no match for this Krupp suit... At that time, you will be beaten up on one side, and won't even have the strength to fight back! "

"You want to buy such a magical weapon? Do you want to buy the next generation model that you bought, or the future generation model that you want to upgrade? "

The northern seaside debate had completely stunned the ignorant eunuchs and maids. Beside Ci An, the head eunuch, Zhou Daoying, was so frightened that his face had turned pale, "What? Why are they selling it from generation to generation? "

"How can a war be fought like this …" You can't use the guns you bought once, but you still have to buy new ones every year? "

These people would never understand the importance of changing into new clothes in modern wars. The war in Middle Age was actually very simple, big swords and pikes could be used repeatedly!

In theory, a large blade could be used for over a hundred years without any problems!

Therefore, the maintenance cost for the Middle Age's army was not high.

The so-called spending money was nothing more than food, bows and arrows, and ammunition for cannons!

However, in the modern era, the army had invested a huge amount of effort into equipping itself. Every generation of equipment needed to be upgraded, and the soldiers needed to be trained and adapted to it!

Without gold and silver mountains, it was impossible to raise a modern army!
