Zhao Xin is not a German fan, similar to Nazi Germany, the crime of starting the Second World War, and even because of this, countless people fell into the war, he will not evaluate, nor will he whitewash whether Germany launched the First World War was right or wrong, in a sense, the First World War, that is a war for rights and interests, whether it is a winner or a loser, is not worth looking at.

But before the First World War, and even including the First World War, Germany performed very well.

You know, the rise of Germany, only a few decades, the era of Napoleon across Europe, is the most unfortunate period for Germany, at that time, Germany, in the most divided era, there are countless city-states and small territories, located in Germany, Germany is most famous, not industrial manufacturing, but German soldiers.

The tradition of German mercenaries can even be traced back to the Middle Ages, when the Netherlands was strong, the Netherlands, the coachmen of the sea, had an innumerable amount of money, and they hired soldiers throughout Europe to help them fight.

In the midst of a complicated situation, slowly Germany began to develop, the emergence of the Kingdom of Prussia, changed the fate of Germany, after being defeated by Napoleon, began to realize the problem, they needed to make a change, and proposed a reform.

Such a country from the reform, from a divided, backward country, leap to become a world power, two world wars are related to him, after the World War II suffered a huge blow, still rising, standing in the position of the world power, a few decades of time, such a big change has taken place, this is in the entire history of the world, are rare.

If China at that time had been able to have the foresight to come up with such a big country awakening, perhaps, China would have taken a different path, and learning from Germany would be the most suitable for China.

In 1840, the Opium Period, was opened to the beginning of the country, China began to awaken, and opening eyes to see the world became the common choice of all people of insight, but from Britain, to the United States, and then to Japan, China could not find a way to suit itself.

Not only did he learn from Germany's experience, but also conducted some bilateral trade with Germany at that time, which was also in line with the situation at that time, Germany did not have much diplomatic relations at that time, and as a late-developing country, he did not have many colonies, and needed a large number of raw materials to support the huge industrial production, which had great complementarity with China.

From 1890 to 1910, even if they won the Franco-Prussian War, even if the powerful army weighed down the whole of Europe, their reputation in the world, at least in China, was not very high.

Without a person who sees the world with a discerning eye, China lost this opportunity, and at that time, there was no success in learning from Europe and the United States, and the vast majority of people chose to learn from Japan in the end.

Japan is an island country with a small national body, coupled with the wariness of the great powers against China, they chose to support Japan, and the combination of internal and external factors contributed to Japan's development.

At that time, the learners only saw the internal reasons and ignored the external reasons, coupled with some wolf ambitions in Japan, which kept fueling the fire, and at the critical moment, during the decades when the whole world was developing wildly, China actually grew up in war and separation, and finally lost the last chance and collapsed.

At present, the environment in which the Northern Song Dynasty is located, although maritime trade is very important, can not become a support, the development of the first four countries, without much effort, can be done, if according to their development and development, for China, is the easiest way.

But then, history is a mirror, and the subsequent development of the four countries has given Zhao Xin a wake-up call.

In the 21st century, that is, Britain can barely be called a strong country, and other countries are running to the second-rate, third-rate or even fourth-rate, and the results of sea plunder may make a country become a nouveau riche with endless wealth, but it is destined not to last, and he is not the right development path for a big country.

Germany is what it really should learn, before its rise, in a very complex environment, located in the heart of Europe, war-torn and surrounded by a strong army, no access to the sea, no access to the sea, but they have developed into a strong country precisely by virtue of their own development, and the basis of this development is education.

As early as Napoleon's invasion of Germany, Wilhelm III put forward the idea that the country must use spiritual strength to make up for the lack of body.

This point of view, before this, has never been there, Chinese Confucianism, since Confucius, has focused on teaching apprentices, but it is the teacher preaching and teaching to solve doubts, not for the increase of the country's national strength.

In the modern sense, middle schools, primary schools, and even universities are the real rise, and what they teach is closely linked to social practice and productivity.

The concept of education was proposed, so that Prussia has undergone great changes, in Prussia, still paying a huge amount of reparations to France, the Humboldt University of Berlin was born, the king took out the last part of the family fund, the prince's palace as the university building, the whole kingdom from top to bottom, began to attach importance to education, from the royal family to the nobility, from scholars to ordinary people, up and down, the whole country began to change.

In just a few decades, Germany has gradually become the most advanced country in Europe from a country with the lowest illiteracy rate in Europe, and has become strong from the war, from an ordinary kingdom, a divided country that does not know what unification means, to a unified whole, a strong Germany, began to appear in Europe.

It also built a huge industrial system from scratch, became the first power in Europe, and began to challenge the powerful Britain, which was also the trigger for the First World War.

Some people believe that it was Germany's incessant construction of ships and incessant provocations against Britain that caused the outbreak of World War I, but at the peak of Germany, the size of the entire fleet was less than 70% of Britain's, and even if the entire naval law was completely completed, it would not surpass Britain.

As early as 10 years before the First World War, Germany had replaced Britain and became the first industrial country on the entire European continent.

What Zhao Xin wants to take is this, night school and literacy education, and even some vocational grade certificates, as well as the promotion of the side, to solve only the problem of whether there is or not, real education, need to be systematized.

Now, the report sent to Zhao Xin is that it is recently proposed that the reform of overall education is not a scattered education like night schools and cram schools, but a whole, systematic education.

In this education plan, it is not only stipulated in detail that the Navy will build 40 new primary schools with a capacity of more than 6,000 students, 30 middle schools, and 4 universities with different functions.

Universities, which in later generations, have been flooded, and many universities have been built and expanded in the 21st century, but before the 20th century, they were very radiant institutions.

After Germany had Humboldt University, the whole scientific research began to develop like a blowout, before the First World War, Germany's development in all aspects was extremely terrible, and even because of the lack of certain resources, they creatively developed the technology of synthetic ammonia and artificial rubber.

If it was said that two years ago, when I had just arrived in Dinghai, such an educational reform would definitely not be possible, not to mention that there were not so many teachers, and even teaching materials were very lacking.

In the past two years, Dingjun has accumulated a lot of things, and even the research results of the research institute and the experience of the factory, which are very useful for the establishment of education.

Zhao Xin combined the current situation of the navy with solid middle school knowledge and began to compile teaching materials.

Of course, it is impossible to be so deep with the later generations, the development of the later generations is to stand on the shoulders of giants, through many efforts to achieve, Dingjun now, lack a lot of key research foundations, even if Zhao Xin can never forget to get out the teaching materials of later generations, it can't solve the problem.

No one knows better than Zhao Xin that the current situation of the Navy or the direction of future development are quite clear, and it is the best choice for him to do this.

Liberal arts, needless to say, the Northern Song Dynasty for decades, the flourishing literary atmosphere, the in-depth of various schools of Confucianism, Zhao Xinlai did not need to come at all, he was on the basis of literacy, combined with Chinese pinyin, and all kinds of other things, in addition to the Northern Song Dynasty itself enlightened some textbooks, to get out of the Chinese textbooks, these are not a problem.

After that, mathematics, in ancient times, it was one of the six arts of the gentleman, and many ancient Confucian scholars carefully studied the number, but the Chinese writing, the writing is too complicated, not easy to calculate and compare, and the number has become a very difficult thing, not only relatively shallow, but not many people learn.

Mathematics is the foundation of natural science, and it can be said unceremoniously that without the progress of mathematics, there would be no large-scale discoveries in natural science, and some sub-disciplines of mathematics for the study of materials, and even the composition of molecular ions, have developed on a large scale in later generations and formed a unique concept.

To some extent, industrialization determines the navy, and mathematics is more needed, which is a compulsory course and a subject that Zhao Xin values the most.

Mathematics is determined, but on the difficulty level, how to choose, you can't always make some simple, nine-chapter arithmetic, chickens and rabbits in the same cage and the like, those, the difficulty is too low.

After careful consideration, the basic difficulty of mathematics was finally set in the third year of junior high school in the future.

Don't underestimate the third grade of junior high school in later generations, which has been exposed to unary quadratic equations, various positive and negative numbers, fractions and other concepts, as well as independent variable functions, special trigonometric functions, and some basic concepts of geometry.

This knowledge is the truth that has been summarized in the past thousands of years, in the world, some have developed a little more, some have developed a little less, and after the world exchanges and the collision of ideas, the truth that has been finally summed up, and the result of countless scientists' exhaustive experience, in the end, is still used.

Zhao Xin doesn't even need to consolidate the basic laws, he just needs to take them out and use his name as a definition, as long as it doesn't affect the calculation.

In later generations, classical mechanics was basically overturned in space and in the environment of the universe, and even the theory of relativity has a narrow and broad sense, but a certain theory, in a relative environment, is valid and the truth, and this is enough.

The mathematics in the middle school textbook, which is the most classic, has been verified countless times before it was finally summarized into a textbook, each of which has been the result of the efforts of countless scientists, not to mention that it will never be wrong, at least in the known environment, he will not be wrong.

Zhao Xin's knowledge of middle school is quite solid, coupled with the 4-year make-up course in the undergraduate, covering from junior high school to high school, there may be some simple theories, and it is not clear whether it is junior high school or high school, it doesn't matter, and it is not really accurate, as long as it is useful, high school can also join.

In the later subject selection, the Northern Song Dynasty now, of course, English is not to be learned, with Zhao Xin's Northern Song Dynasty, Chinese must be the undisputed mainstream language of the world in the future, in addition to the English language family of North and South America and Oceania, there are other language families in the European continent, what is the second foreign language, it is really hard to say.

Subjects such as labor and history can be played casually, and history can also be shaken off, and some history books should be simplified and standardized, and become teaching materials, mainly to understand some history, so as not to be ignorant of the past, and the current Dingjun Navy has nothing to praise history, and there is no need to write certain things.

The latter two disciplines, which are the key to science, physics and chemistry, were compiled by Zhao Xin himself, referring to the development of physical chemistry in Dingjun, and more to lay a solid foundation.

Physics and chemistry, even at the beginning of the 20th century, were new disciplines, and they were separated from the natural sciences for a very short time, and they had not yet formed a cohesive system.

Zhao Xin's physics and chemistry are also very shallow, basically, some knowledge from middle school textbooks, plus simple reactions in the practical application of the Dinghai Navy, learning them is to have a general, theoretical understanding of this subject, and similarly, to cultivate a basic experimental attitude, the latter is even more important than the former in a sense.
