Hu Xiaoyan did not avoid Lev Davidovich and Angel because the former did not know Chinese at all, while the latter knew Chinese, but this girl could be completely trusted.

If a woman who has to wait for him at the docks in London every day and wait for him every day in front of the big tree at the entrance of the village when he returns home is not trustworthy, then he really doesn't know who else can be trusted.

"What I'm going to do is actually written out in detail in the books Rise of Great Powers and The Supremacy of Science." Hu Xiaoyan focused on the five non-commissioned officers and students.

"If a country wants to rise, it is not just about learning some advanced combat concepts, buying some machinery and equipment, and making some good weapons."

After Hu Xiaoyan finished speaking, he remembered Sun Cannon. With the help of the Japanese, Sun Dacang constantly lobbied overseas Chinese to donate money, and also recruited Japanese students for his use, and eventually these funds were said to be used in the uprising after the Japanese students returned to China. However, according to historical records, the donations of overseas Chinese added up to at least one million silver dollars, but each time the students rebelled, they did not even have rifles, so they could only seize the Manchu arsenal with their bare hands.

He sent these international students who had learned advanced knowledge to the battlefield, and many of them had studied mathematics, physics and chemistry for many years, and in the future, they might even send Chinese nuclear physics experts to die on the battlefield of the uprising.

This is also the reason why when China later engaged in nuclear physics, almost all the experts in physics were born after 1910 and studied in the United States. Almost all of the students who were born before 1910 and studied in Japan and the United States were fooled by Sun Dacang into revolting, and as a result, they all died worthless.

"So I arrange for students to go to university, so I want to build the biggest and best university in Asia." Hu Xiaoyan continued.

"But that's not enough. Most of you here are military. It should be known that the First Sino-Japanese Naval War and the Korean War were in those years. If we want to develop, we must be able to build cannons and guns. But these require talents, and now they are still studying at universities. It will take at least 10 years for them to become full. ”

"The country can wait, but we can't wait, and Japan and Russia won't give us time. I want you to buy time for our students. Whether it's for the country or for yourself. I hope that you will be able to use all your strength to learn all the military knowledge you can learn, as long as the knowledge related to military affairs is within the scope of your learning. ”

"Then back home, we don't have much time. When you're almost done, we're going to go back home and buy time for our students and our country. ”

"You may die. I don't know you're not scared, but I'm scared. I'm afraid I'm going to fail. Will you give me trust, will you give me faith? ”

After Hu Xiaoyan finished speaking, he looked at everyone present.

Chen Xin is a young old man, and he may still be immersed in the idea of his Tai Chi book to be ignored, and Lev Davidovich is asking Angel about it. And he is not Chinese either.

The following are Huo Yuanjia and Li Chen's special forces. They didn't say anything, just stood up firmly and gave a military salute. They got used to it in the barracks.

The five non-commissioned officers and students followed, they may not have understood, but as soldiers, they are now Hu Xiaoyan's subordinates, and it is also their task at the moment to obey Hu Xiaoyan.

Hu Xiaoyan looked at the last middle two teenager trio.

The three of them immediately became enthusiastic: "I do!" ”

It's a pity that Hu Xiaoyan shook his head: "You three better go to study well." Adults and children are less involved. ”

"Where are we small?" The brothers and sisters of the He family disagreed at first.

But Hu Xiaoyan didn't pay attention to them at all.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you are all soldiers, and I have already said that. Now that you have agreed. Then in two days, I will have to ask the teachers to come and teach you a lesson. I hope you don't let me down. ”

After Hu Xiaoyan finished speaking, he pulled Lev Davidovich and Angel away.

He said these things because he had just seen a newspaper. Newspapers mentioned that a group of bandits in Chinese mainland was making a lot of noise, and reporters worried that the incident would pose a threat to British citizens in China.

Hu Xiaoyan knew at a glance that the bandits mentioned in this newspaper were the Boxers! The British journalist may have exaggerated, but the Boxers were indeed not good birds. Each organization of the Boxers consisted of hundreds or thousands of people, and these people didn't do their jobs, ran to practice boxing, and even attacked the church in the end! So where do these people get the food they eat? Don't say that these people are all rich and have thousands of pounds of food.

Especially when the Boxer Rebellion broke out completely, in addition to Cixi in Beijing, many other celebrities such as Zhang Zhidong, Liu Kunyi, Yuan Shikai and many other celebrities all ruthlessly killed the Boxers. Let's not say that these celebrities are all big bad guys.

The Boxers numbered as few as a thousand or as many as 10,000 people, who were actually bandits at that time. They robbed homes and houses, robbed people's daughters and other things very happily. It's just that Cixi needs them to deal with Wu Yijun and foreigners, so they flatter each other. And they came together.

Since the Empress Dowager had an order, the Boxers immediately claimed that the Boxers had changed their face, and with a loud slogan of "helping the Qing Dynasty to destroy the foreigners", they went to Beijing to attack the embassy. The result?

As a result, the Boxers of tens of thousands of people ran to fight the embassy guarded by less than 2,000 people, but they did not capture it for dozens of days. What is Lord Ronglu's Jingying doing at this time? They're watching the hilarity! Even the Manchu Qing Dynasty's own army camp was watching the excitement from the side, which shows how much the Boxers were hated.

If it weren't for the Wu Yi Army led by Nie Shicheng blocking the Eight-Nation Alliance on the front line, where would the Boxers still have time to attack the embassy leisurely? As a result, after Nie Shicheng died in battle, the Eight-Nation Coalition entered the city of Beijing without much effort. The old man Cixi fled from Beijing with his people the day before, and there were less than a hundred soldiers with him! So the question is, how can the old man Cixi say that she was also the empress dowager of the dynasty, and she fled with the emperor and didn't even have an escort army?!

Why? Quite simply, Cixi, an idiot, has committed public outrage, and even our loyal Lord Rong is not willing to play with Cixi.

The Eight-Nation Coalition Army arrived at the city of Beijing and attacked this historic city without delay. After that, there is no need to mention the burning of the Old Summer Palace and the like.

The Boxers, who are known as invulnerable, did not even stop the Eight-Nation Coalition for a day!

We cannot say that the Boxers were ignorant. Because they don't even know that they are stupid! They're bandits in the first place, and it's too much to expect them to be able to turn the tide.

A bandit is a bandit. Gangsters are gangsters. You would be naïve to expect good people among them.

Hu Xiaoyan did not count on the Boxers. Because the first thing he wanted to destroy after returning to China was the Boxers! The premise is that these people have not been killed by the Eight-Nation Alliance. It was precisely because of the bandits of the Boxers that all the elite non-commissioned officers and students of the Tianjin Military Academy, the only military school in China, were besieged by the Eight-Nation Coalition and annihilated!

For the collapse of Tianjin Wubei Academy, Cixi has to pay the first responsibility, and the Boxers are the key responsible persons! Both of these parties are going to be divided by the five horses, and they can't solve their hatred.

You must know that most of these non-commissioned officers and students are literate and high-level talents with strong patriotic sentiments, and many of them are themselves outstanding talents in the new army of Wu Yijun and Yuan Shikai, and they were recommended to enter the Tianjin Military Academy for further study. They will all be the backbone of the team in the future. Their death was an intolerable loss for the squadron.

The Boxers have no merit with the country, but there are great powers! Not to mention the people they destroyed, their sins of nothing in the city of Beijing alone were enough to destroy them.

When Hu Xiaoyan saw such a report, he knew that his plans had been completely disrupted, and his time in Europe was once again compressed. Because he simply does not have the strength to fight with the Eight-Nation Alliance. Even with the addition of Yuan Shikai, it is estimated that it is not enough.

The 50,000 men of the Eight-Nation Coalition Army not only had a state-of-the-art rifle at the time, but also a number of army artillery accompanying them. What's more critical is that they have the best mid- and low-level non-commissioned officers and cadets of this era.

And China's most advanced troops, Yuan Shikai's new army, are no match for them in this regard. In the fight, Yuan Shikai may be able to win a battle, but he will definitely lose the entire battle.

Because Yuan Shikai's subordinates did not have a production workshop that could make bullets at all, nor did they have a machine that could make shells. Yuan Shikai won one game, and it has nothing to do with the overall situation. Once his bullets and shells are gone, he will have to wait for death. This is also the reason why he joined Southeast Mutual Insurance in the first place. Because from the very beginning he knew that this war could not be won at all.

Later generations of great men once wrote an article called "On Protracted War". The situation was exactly the same as it is now. The Japanese army in World War II was very powerful, and with such a strong army, could China not win? Yes yes and no. The troops under the bald head are not weak, and of course they can win a battle! But can he win the game? No! There is only one Hanyang Arsenal under the bald man! Its production capacity is simply not enough to launch several large-scale battles bareheaded.

For example, the famous Battle of Taierzhuang later. Although the battle was won. But if we really know the number of casualties and the amount of materials consumed by both the enemy and the enemy, we will find out. The battle was actually lost. Lost at the starting point!

The loss of a regiment by the Japanese army is nothing at all! He can fight more legions.

The Japanese fired 10,000 shells and 100,000 shells were nothing, because they were able to make the spent shells in a few days at the arsenal in Tohoku.

But can China? China can't do it, and there are only a few troops that China can fight the most, and when they run out, they will be gone. Therefore, the bald head let the troops retreat from time to time, not because they couldn't fight, but because they couldn't afford to lose.

Similarly, many people say that the Sichuan Army's broadsword team is really powerful. In fact, the Sichuan army also does not like to use broadswords. It's just that they have guns and no bullets.

The bullets that their troops fired in a day had to be replenished in the rear for several days.

China's foundations are too weak. No beatings at all! At that time, the Chinese troops looked glamorous on the outside, but in fact they were only capable of fighting a war! After fighting a war, there is no strength left to fight again.

That's why the long-term vision of the great man said that he would fight a protracted war!

The situation that Hu Xiaoyan and Yuan Shikai are facing today is very similar to that time.

None of them have the strength to fight a battle, they only have the ability to fight a battle. So Yuan Shikai chose Southeast Mutual Insurance!

Hu Xiaoyan doesn't want to do this, if he allows the capital of a country to be occupied by enemy troops, then why should he make trouble in the country! Be a glorious traverser, everything develops according to history, then it's a fart!

The city of Beijing can be occupied, but only by itself! Hu Xiaoyan made up his mind. Either you don't fight, or you have to hit seven inches!

And now he is abroad! The few in front of him have become his most important helpers.
