The news of the life-and-death battle between the German and French armies at Verdun was immediately transmitted to Eder. In the face of this battle, Eder only knew that it was the battle with the heaviest casualties of the First World War, and everything else was about to be forgotten.

However, now the decisive war between Germany and France has also eased the pressure on Romania from the side. Not everyone can calmly face the fact that all their neighbors have joined the war, and they are as stable as Mount Tai.

At least stationed on the territory of Bulgaria, the German 11th Army, led by Field Marshal Mackensen, was estimated to not be long in coming. At a time when the German army was not alive and wounded, Eder did not want to face the strongest army in the world now. This is not in the interests of Romania and, of course, his.

Eder put Verdun's information down and took out a copy of the country's information. This is a report from the Ministry of Education on the statistics of Romanian school students, and Eder is carefully looking at it.

As for education, Eder, a good young man in the new century who was born in New China and grew up in Hongqi, is certainly no stranger. I still have some memories of my education in my previous life.

The current situation in Romania has certain similarities with the motherland of his previous life, so some methods in his previous life can also provide some reference for Romania. Now Edel is thinking about using education to improve the quality of Romanian citizens and prepare them for the future.

Eder, who has lived in Romania for more than 20 years, has a deep understanding of the Romanian ethnicity.

Because of the fertile land of Romania, Romanians have not been very good. From the rule of the earliest Roman Empire, to the Avars, Slavs, Cumans, Tatars, and finally the Ottomans. Throughout Romania's recorded history, Romanians have been ruled by various ethnic groups. This made Eder, who has the memory of later generations, feel a little helpless, in the textbooks of his previous life, the few times he was ruled by other peoples has been a history of humiliation.

If you look at Romanian history books, they are all kinds of oppressed histories, which makes Eder feel that it has become urgent to change Romanian habits. In fact, Romania has been doing it for several years, but they are more from a nationalist direction. However, nationalism is a double-edged sword, and if it is not mastered well, it will turn into populism, and it is easy to hurt oneself.

So Eder had always felt that a new direction was needed, but fortunately there was a ready-made reference goal, and that was the approach of a unified Germany. Some people may want to say that the motherland of the future generations is also doing well in this regard, and Eder actually considered it, but in the end he gave up this idea. Because Romania does not have a strict political group that orders from above and from below, it is too much to take for granted the methods of learning from the motherland in the past life.

As we all know, Germany was loosely divided in Central Europe in the early and mid-19th century, and it was not until Prussia unified Germany that it became a major European power. Continued investment in education is the key to Germany's strength, and Eder intends to follow this path.

However, unlike Germany, Romania is under more pressure to rise. Now the development of science and technology has made the gap between European countries wider and wider, as Germany can fight on two fronts and face Britain and France alone, and can also free up one hand to fight Russia. A weak country can only survive by clinging to a strong country.

Eder, who is Chinese at heart, can't bear it, and his fate is in the hands of others. That's why he needs to lead Romania to the negotiating table of the great powers and have his own seat, instead of waiting for the ruling of the great powers.

Then increasing investment in education will also be the main means, and of course controlling the direction of public opinion is equally important, and Eder will not relax either.

There are now 951,600 students and 15,700 teachers in Romania. The number of students has reached 10.5% of the population, and the number of students taught by each teacher has dropped to 60.6. It was much better than in Romania in his previous life, but it still fell short of Eder's expectations.

You must know that Germany, which is famous for its emphasis on education, has reached a terrifying figure of 11.67 million students in the country with a population of 65 million. This would mean that 17.95 per cent of the total population will be enrolled in school, covering almost all of Germany's education-age population. Every German is educated, which allows Germans to compete with other countries in every way.

That's what Eder's education will look like, but his goals will be even bolder. He plans to take advantage of the current good economic situation in Romania to introduce nine-year compulsory education. This is not the result of Eder's inflated desire to become the world's number one education-conscious country, but the result of his careful consideration.

If we want to transform the characteristics of a nation, we need a long period of financial investment, changes in social cognition, and the guidance of public opinion. And this kind of investment can only be guided slowly, it will take decades, and now Romania can't wait for decades,

In Eder's mind, World War II was Romania's last chance to rise. If this opportunity is missed, unless Romania has a territory of 9.6 million square kilometers, a population of more than a billion, and a party with super-organizational capabilities. Only by constantly moving forward according to the set goals can we make a breakthrough in the social pattern that was fixed after World War II. Romania doesn't have any of that, so World War II will also be the last chance.

At the same time, educated and highly qualified citizens are better than uneducated people, including the military, regardless of what kind of work they will work in the future. That's where Eder thinks it's crucial. Romania now has a standing army of 400,000 strong, but this has been trained for decades.

It is important to know that in Romania the training of recruits reaches 15 weeks, which is longer than the training time of recruits of various powers. From this point of view, it can be said that the Romanian army attaches great importance to training, but is this not a last resort method that the quality of the people is not as good as that of other powers?

You must know that according to the investigation of the Romanian military, the effect of 12 weeks of German recruit training is stronger than that of 15 weeks of Romanian recruit training. Whether it is from the technical and tactical understanding or the understanding of military orders, it is a goal that Romanian recruits cannot surpass. This is all a convenience brought by high-quality citizens, and it is also a temptation that Eder cannot refuse.

What's more, Romania has a population of only 16 million even if it is outside the borders, which is much less than the population of 30 or 40 million people from the current powers. Romania can't afford to fight for attrition. Therefore, cultivating high-quality citizens belonging to Romania has become a top priority for Eder. ()
