The wisdom of becoming strong in the weak is burst out under great pressure. In this process, those who are in a weak position have learned to observe calmly, learned to think, and constantly summarized the experiences and lessons of those who have risen and are rising, and survived alone in the cracks, so one day, when the opportunity comes, the whole world will be surprised, and another strong man who has risen has come out of nowhere. ”
General David said: "Your Excellency the King of Hainan, your insights are beyond imagination, you have an ambition to dominate the world, at the same time, you also have a patience to wait alone, I admire your courage and wisdom, I believe that in the near future, China's right to speak is yours, which is also another meaning of my trip to the Far East." ”
Chen Zhong laughed after hearing David's words, and said, "You Americans are naturally shrewd businessmen, with an extremely sensitive olfactory system and eyes that can penetrate the fog of history. You will always be highly attentive to your interests. ”
General David acquiesced in Chen Zhong's evaluation, and said with a smile: "Looking at the world's great powers, they have all had difficult struggles, and in the process of their rise, most of them have survived strongly in the process of rising, moving forward alone, and silently waiting for the upcoming historical opportunity." ”
General David made an exploratory analysis with Chen Zhong on several military powers that were currently on the rise.
General David spoke first about France. He said that after the opening of the new shipping routes, "commerce" promoted the development of French capitalism, and they carried out the Reformation, the reforms of Louis XIV, and because of its emphasis on economic development, they soon became the most powerful country on the European continent.
However, he later lost the struggle for colonial hegemony with Britain in active overseas colonization activities, and therefore lagged behind Britain. Despite this, his level of capitalist development remained high.
After the capture of the Bastille in 1789 and the promulgation of the Declaration of the Rights of Man, the French were intervened by the British, Russian, Prussian and Austrian anti-French alliances.
The First French Republic was established in 1792. In 1793 the Jacobins came to power and sold the land into small plots to the peasants, which was not conducive to the spread of industry and carried out a policy of terror. Napoleon came to power in 1799, established the First French Empire in 1804, promulgated the Civil Code, and established the norms of capitalist legislation.
The military activities of the Napoleonic Empire and the struggle against the anti-French coalition were of the nature of the Great Patriotic War and the consolidation of achievements, but Napoleon's military empire was aggressive in the later period, and in 1814 the anti-French coalition defeated France and the Bourbon dynasty was restored.
In the early 19th century, industry developed rapidly, and its industrial output was second only to that of the United Kingdom. In 1870 the Franco-Prussian War was defeated, and in 1871 the workers revolted to establish the Paris Commune, but in the second industry, the economy developed relatively slowly, falling from second to fourth place. It is called "usury imperialism".
Looking at Russia, in the 6th century AD, the Eastern Slavs gradually migrated to the European part of present-day Russia. Class society emerged in the 9th century. In 862, the Varangians, led by Rurik, conquered the Eastern Slavs and established the Rurik dynasty. In 882, the early feudal state of Kievan Rus' was established during the reign of Oleg. Christianity was established as the state religion in 988. In the 12th century, it was divided into several principalities.
In 1237 the Mongol army invaded and established the Golden Horde (see Kipchak Khanate). From the 14th century onwards, the Grand Duchy of Moscow grew in strength. At the end of the 15th century ~ the beginning of the 16th century, Ivan III, Grand Duke of Moscow, established a unified Russian state and completely got rid of the rule of the Golden Horde.
In 1547, Ivan IV (the Terrible) was crowned Tsar and greatly expanded his territory. In the 16th ~ 17th centuries, the Volga River basin, the Urals and Siberia successively joined Russia. In 1613, Mikhail Fedorovich Romanov was proclaimed Tsar, beginning the reign of the Romanov dynasty.
In the mid-17th century, Ukraine and Russia merged into a unified state. During the reign of Peter I, a series of political, financial, economic, military and cultural reforms were carried out, which promoted socio-economic and cultural development, and at the same time carried out foreign expansion, obtained access to the Baltic Sea, extended the southern territory to the Caspian Sea region, and Russia became a European power. In 1721 Russia was renamed the Empire.
In 1812 the Russian people repelled the invasion of Napoleon's army. The uprising of the Octorist in St. Petersburg in December 1825 marked the beginning of the Russian movement. In 1861, serfdom was reformed, and capitalism developed rapidly.
Today, under the rule of Nicholas II, Russia is full of land fanaticism, but the turbulence of the domestic situation makes the tsarist rule face a serious challenge.
In the Russo-Japanese War that began last year, it seemed that Japan, a newly rising country, was going to deal a fatal blow to the powerful Tsarist Russia.
While the world was still watching the prosperity of Europe, Japan in the Far East had risen rapidly. At the time of the shogunate's crisis, reformists led by middle- and lower-ranking samurai led the Shogunate Movement and won the victory.
Later, Japan embarked on the path of capitalist development through the Meiji Restoration, got rid of national oppression, and became the first country in Asia to acquire a nation. In the eighties of the 19th century, industry appeared*, and with the support of Japan, a monopoly was formed in Japan to make a transition to imperialism.
The development of Japanese militarism will inevitably lead to wars of aggression against foreign countries. So they launched the War against Korea and the Sino-Japanese War against China.
The Treaty of Shimonoseki was signed with your Qing dynasty and received huge indemnities, which greatly accelerated the development of the Japanese economy. At present, Japan's war against Russia is almost coming to an end, and Russia's defeat has become a fact.
Japan's rise was due to their desire and ambition to seek a continent, and their sense of crisis in the center of an island desperately poor in resources, looking out at the Eurasian continent to their northwest every day, prompted them to start a crazy plan with moths to the fire.
The rise of Japan coincided with the stagnation of your Great Qing Dynasty, which was a once-in-a-lifetime historical opportunity for Japan, and some of their crazy politicians with mainland dreams seemed to see hope at this moment, so they began to start a militaristic expansion plan in a gambler's way.
The mentality of Japan's rise, with the self-improvement of getting up early, has gradually evolved into madness, and in the end it will definitely come to a point of distortion and perversion.
