London, the capital of England, was almost a sensation, and they did not expect that a world-renowned historian of the Kingdom of Prussia would become a thief. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info actually stole books from the library of the British Empire, this is simply too strange. You must know that as a celebrity, it is too embarrassing to be a thief, right? What's more, as a Prussian, you are in England, and you represent the image of a Prussian. If you're a great historian who chooses to be a thief, how can you not be shocked. Especially this one goes into the library, you can borrow books anyway! Anyway, there's no rule that you can't borrow money, so why should you?

And this Leopoldranks is on fire, completely on fire. However, this led to the fact that the book he stole was also popular, and everyone wanted to see what kind of book it was, so that even a great historian in this hall couldn't help but steal it, so that they all wanted to see what the book was. As a result, Chen Dingtian did not expect that an accident of his own would alarm a great historian. In the end, it caused a series of butterfly effects again, which made him famous in England.

"What the hell is this book? How can this historian give up his dignity as a scholar and come and steal this book? Prince Albert, the Queen's husband, asked suspiciously.

Prince Albert was a German, but not a Prussian. Germany was not yet united, but a loose confederation. It was only when the Franco-Prussian War broke out between Prussia and France, and then the Prussian king took advantage of the great victory to be crowned emperor, that Germany was successfully unified as a confederation. The history of Germany is also not very good, it was divided into many parts, and only now is there a gradual trend towards unification. Although the Prince Albert was not a Prussian, he was clearly concerned about the situation in Germany.

He knew that this Leopoldranke was a famous historian, but what kind of book could make this historian give up his identity as a scholar to do such a stealing thing? So this made Prince Albert very curious, and he was very eager to see what kind of book this was.

Prince Albert is the "uncrowned king" of the United Kingdom, although he is only the husband of the Queen of England, but he controls almost the whole of Britain behind his back. Although Britain has long been a constitutional monarchy in this era, the influence of the monarch should not be underestimated. Queen Victoria will even consult Prince Albert for almost any government affairs, and Prince Albert makes the final decision on almost all government decisions, so it is not enough to say that Prince Albert is the uncrowned king of the United Kingdom. But now I heard about a celebrity from the German region, and it was a little curious.

"Your Royal Highness, the book that Leopoldranke stole is this one, called The Rise of Great Powers, which was sent to our British Library by the Truman family, and it is a new book. But it seems to have been written by an Oriental. A servant next to him said.

Sure enough, Prince Albert was also a little curious, such an Oriental man wrote it, and actually entered the library of the West?

"But even if it was written by an Oriental, then he wouldn't steal for it, would he?" Albert thought.

Albert opened the book and began to flip through the pages. He quickly finished reading this history of the rise and fall of Spain and Portugal, which made Albert watch it with great interest.

"I really can't imagine that an Oriental would write such a detailed thing. I don't know a lot of these things, but an Oriental knows about them? That's really amazing, you know so many things? I really don't know how he collected the information, but that alone isn't enough for a historian to steal, right? Albert thought.

Albert flipped to the last page, and his face was shocked. Because he, like that Leopold, found this assessment of the German region. Chen Dingtian's assessment of this German region was that sooner or later it would be unified, and most likely it would be unified by Prussia. Even the three world powers listed by Chen Dingtian have their own reasons. Even three world quasi-powers, Germany is definitely one of them. As a German-born person, he is very concerned about the fate of this Germany, which makes him very sensitive. And when he saw that sooner or later Germany would be unified, or even by the Kingdom of Prussia, he suddenly had mixed feelings in his heart. Although he was German, he was not a Prussian royal family, so he still felt very complicated. However, he was also well aware of Prussia's strength, and perhaps if Germany was to be reunified, Prussia would have the greatest hope.

"The United States, he actually thinks so highly of the United States? By the way, he said that sooner or later the United States will prosper. The United States is far away from Europe, across the Atlantic, and will not get involved in European disputes, so it will develop steadily, while European countries will inevitably fight each other, which will inevitably reduce their strength and finally let the United States take advantage? God, how did I not think of this? I always thought that the United States was a weak country, a colony that became independent from our United Kingdom, but how could I not think of that? ”

Albert felt that Chen Dingtian's evaluation of the United States made him suddenly, especially the fact that the United States is far away from the European continent and away from the disputes in the center of the world, so that he can develop steadily and not be dragged down. Although the current strength of the US military is not too strong, but with the development of the economy and industry, the army can naturally be easily formed. This era is the age of industry, and with enough industry, the army can naturally be formed.

At the back of this first volume, there is Chen Dingtian's superficial analysis of various countries, especially the expected future situation of Germany, the United States, and even other countries. And even Prince Albert felt that his mouth was suddenly opened, and he felt that what Chen Dingtian said was very reasonable. Although it is only a rough introduction, adding up to less than 200 words for a country, it makes Prince Albert think it is very reasonable.

"Victoria, look at this book, it's really interesting! I really didn't expect that an Oriental would analyze the situation in our Western countries so vividly. Even this made me feel so much that he even made a list of the first enemy we hadn't thought of in the past. You can see his evaluation of the United States, which is actually one of the important candidates for the future world's top power and even world hegemon. Prince Albert said.

Victoria exclaimed: "Isn't the United States the colony of our British Empire in the past?" Can they become world hegemons? ”

Victoria apparently didn't believe that a former colony could have a chance to become a world hegemon, which simply made her feel scornful. However, seeing that her husband, who is also her most important counselor, attaches so much importance to it, Queen Victoria also gave her face and took a closer look.

"The United States is far from the center of the world, but it is also far from strife. Without too many disputes, you can develop safely. On the contrary, European countries are intrigued, and even wars break out at every turn, which will inevitably decline. As long as the United States finds an entry point, it will be enough to become the new leader of the world. His geographical advantage was the best cover, preventing the European nations from attacking them. Even during the war, when countries are hiding from war, the United States is the best region to choose from. When the time comes, with enough talents and a comfortable environment, the rise is inevitable. ”

saw this evaluation of the United States, which really made Queen Victoria's face change.

"By the way, the reason why our British Empire allowed the United States to become independent back then was because the expedition across the Atlantic, the cost to us was too great, so it failed. This natural geographical advantage allows them to take advantage of this opportunity to rise. Coupled with the fact that there are no strong countries around, they can rise quickly. Yes, this Oriental named Chen Dingtian really explained the advantages of the United States thoroughly. Once there is any unstable situation on the European continent, many of them will run to the United States for refuge. What's more, the population of the United States is not only of British descent, but also of descendants from other countries. So they won't be discriminated against when they integrate into the United States, so it's easy for them to absorb talent. It is also quite possible to raise it quickly in this case. Queen Victoria said with a gloomy face.

"Yes, he makes a lot of sense, and when you think about it, it seems like that. It seems that we have to be careful about this United States. Prince Albert said.

On the other hand, Queen Victoria said: "He also said that Germany has now become a confederation, and if diplomacy can be used, it can help Germany effectively avoid dealing with multiple enemies at the same time." Add to this a major crisis, which may be an opportunity for German reunification, which will lead to German reunification. And he seems to know Prussia very well, especially since Prussia has implemented compulsory education, and basically every soldier has a primary school education. The quality of the population is very high, and it is currently the country with the highest population quality in the world, so it is a quasi-large country. Once Germany succeeds in reunification, it will also be qualified to compete for world supremacy! ”

Prince Albert didn't say much, because he was also German, but he immediately changed the subject, saying: "The Oriental people's evaluation of China is that it is currently an agricultural country, with a very poor industrial base, and it cannot even be compared with ordinary countries in Europe. But they have one of the greatest advantages, they have hard-working people, and they have the largest population in the world, and they even have a very good cultural heritage. She believes that although China can no longer be called a great power, it is also a quasi-great power, and the key is to see what you can replace with a group of enlightened and far-sighted leaders. ”

"China, although its military strength is relatively poor, and the quality of its population may be relatively poor at present, but if we really want to fight, we may not take much advantage. Ten years ago, we actually won the trade war a bit of a thriller. It was our army that occupied a city called 'Zhenjiang', where they cut off the lifeline of China's transportation and caused a shortage of food in northern China, which negotiated an armistice. Last time, instead of really defeating China with hard power, we stuck China's throat, which is why they chose to negotiate peacefully. ”

"But seeing that he said this situation, China's industrial base is very poor, and this is also a shortcoming. However, with a huge population of 400 million and an excellent cultural heritage, they are indeed a place not to be underestimated. What's even more terrifying is that they are all mono-ethnic, almost mono-ethnic countries with a population of 400 million, which is really ......" Queen Victoria didn't dare to think.

Anyone knows that once a mono-ethnic state with a population of 400 million people is extremely cohesive. In this day and age, technology has not yet been developed to the point where it is possible to kill people with nuclear weapons, so population is not the key to victory, but it is definitely one of the most important ones. Only with a sufficient population can there be enough workers, and only with enough workers can more factories be formed, and only with factories can there be weapons, and only with weapons can more armies be armed. Therefore, although the current population quality of China's population is not high, once it awakens in the future, I am afraid that once the 400 million people are gathered, it will burst out with an incomparably huge force, which makes people feel frightened.

His analysis is very reasonable, but these are just sentences, does he have more details? No wonder this Leopoldranke would choose to steal this book, it turns out that the person behind this book is not an ordinary person! His analysis of several countries is also very precise, pointing out the advantages and disadvantages in one sentence. However, he did not introduce it in detail, and I was very curious about who this Chinese Chen Dingtian was and how much he knew about Europe. Even, what does he think about the future of our Britain? This is all unknown! Prince Albert said.

"It seems that the minister and consul in China should ask him to see if he can write out the part about us in Britain as soon as possible, so that we can also have a reference! At least, even if there is no reference value, we can all see what kind of world Europe is in the eyes of an Oriental, which will help us open up trade routes in the East in the future. Since the trade war ten years ago, although we have opened China's doors, the Chinese are not keen on doing business with us. Look at Europe in the eyes of an Oriental, that's not bad. Prince Albult said.
