Of course, it is by no means up to Chen Guang to open such a new training course and further interfere in China's future. Behind this, it was still Scrooge who made the decision. And Scrooge made this decision, and decided to win over the people of the Restoration Society, not because of disappointment with Mr. Sun's performance in the Xingzhong Society. Chen Guang was indeed a little disappointed in Xingzhong, but Scrooge did not, because before that, he did not have much hope for these people, so naturally he would not be disappointed.

"China is a big country with hundreds of millions of people and nearly 10 million square kilometers of land. And, unlike Turkey, China's tradition of unification far exceeds that of Turkey. After the decline of Turkey, the Arab region will almost certainly secede, and then the whole of Turkey will fall apart, and even if there are great people who can turn the tide, it will at best make it safely a third-class country. But unlike China, at least in its main part, cultural coherence can ensure that it does not completely disintegrate. In this way, a country with such a large population, such a territory, and a civilized people, sooner or later will have a revival. At this time, if we interfere with them and support their revolution, we will be able to gain far more in terms of investment than in the future. This is how Scrooge explained this.

"Scrooge, do you think the Chinese are civilized people?" Carol frowned, in his opinion, those guys with a pig's tail on the back of their heads can also be considered civilized people?

"Carol, this is how I tell the difference between civilized and savage." Scrooge smiled and replied, "That is, in the face of backwardness, are they willing to study hard." You know we once took in a group of young students. Child. These children were quite young when they came to the United States, but they already showed a lot of self-control and the motivation to study hard. So, even though China is lagging behind, I think they are still civilized people in nature. And in contrast, the Indians, the Negroes, did not show such a spirit at all, so I regarded them as savages. That's how I judge. ”

"So there's some truth to what you're saying." Carroll said that in fact, he did not intend to oppose Scrooge's project, and that Scrooge had never made any major mistakes, and that everyone admired his vision from the bottom of their hearts. Second, the project itself doesn't cost much money, and even if it's a game, it's not a big deal.

"For China, a small people with a very small percentage of the population, the situation is even worse than that faced by the Ottoman Turks, whose collapse and the success of the revolution are almost inevitable. But there are also many schools of thought among revolutionaries, and God knows who will be the final victor. Therefore, diversification is very necessary. And it will be more beneficial for China to have a balance of power. ”

Everyone can understand Scrooge's statement. Because everybody understands that it is only in this state of division, in this state of so-called equilibrium, that it is easier to achieve great changes with very little force.

This is like a certain oil-producing country in North Africa in later generations, which once firmly maintained the policy of state-owned oil fields, restricted foreign investment, and even tried to make an African's own bank, and then, finally, there was civil strife in the country, and it was suddenly divided into many fragments that were hostile to each other and fought for each other. And at this time, no fragment has the power to reject the "goodwill" of foreign capital, because if you dare to refuse, then he only needs to support your opponent a little, and you will not be able to eat and walk around. Therefore, what was impossible for foreign capital to obtain is now immediately at its fingertips, and those fragments will compete to betray the country, because whoever moves slowly will be in danger of being finished. Then there is a buyer's market, and the warlords will find that they can't sell their country for a price.

The seller can't sell the country for the price, which is certainly not a good thing for the seller, but for the buyer, it is really good.

Having decided to support more revolutionary forces, and at the same time unwilling to come into direct conflict with the Manchus and the British, who controlled Asia, the location of the course had to be kept extremely secretive. Fortunately, there is still such a place in Scrooge's hands, and that is Alaska. Now, when all the federal government is gone, Alaska is completely the exclusive domain of Scrooge.

……

After disembarking from the ship, Qiu Jin and her comrades stayed on the dock for the night, and the next morning, they headed for the interior of Alaska with the mercenaries of Blackwater, who had come with them.

It's early spring in Alaska, and the snow and ice have melted on the flat ground, but you can still see the snow on the distant mountains and in some shady places. Because the snow on the flat ground has melted, dog sleds are naturally unusable. As for the trucks, they are also unusable, partly because there are no gas stations in Alaska, and partly because the roads in Alaska are not in good condition today.

In the early years, the roads leading to the gold rush were long neglected and quickly degraded into wilderness. Later, when the training camp was being built, the road was found again, but the condition of the road was absolutely impossible for trucks to run.

In the winter, the roads freeze, and in the spring, as the snow melts, the roads immediately turn into a mud pool, and things like trucks almost certainly sink into the mud and become immobile. At night, the temperature drops sharply below freezing, and the roads freeze again. If the wheels of the car are still stuck in the mud at this time, they will be frozen in it.

As a result, the main means of transport on this road today is still light carriages, although these carriages have been replaced with extra-wide rubber tires.

In order to avoid the carriage getting trapped, the carriage had to be as light as possible, so everyone, including Qiu Jin, had to move forward on foot, and only some small luggage and supplies could be put on the carriage. And if the wagon gets trapped, they have to help push it.

Although the gold has been mined, some of the buildings are still there when the gold mine was built, and those buildings are quite solid, and now there are no roofs or anything, but on this basis, it is much cheaper to build one from scratch.

"Mr. Xu, I really don't know how far we have to go." When it was time for the lunch break, a young man sat down next to Xu Xilin and sighed.

"Manshu, I'm afraid you've never seen such a big wasteland." Xu Xilin didn't have time to answer, when a voice came from the side. The two turned around, but saw Qiu Jin walking over.

"Jingxiong has been to the Mobei grassland, I don't know how it compares with here?" Xu Xilin laughed.

"I just looked at the Mobei grassland, and I didn't go deeper, and there have always been herdsmen on the grassland, and when it comes to desolation and vastness, there is still no comparison with here. If you don't go out, you really don't know how big the world is. Qiu Jin said as she sat down on a stake next to her.

After a few moments, they saw the American instructor James blowing the whistle, which meant that they had to concentrate on studying. Because it is easier to walk when the road is freezing, and in this time period, Alaska is dark and early in the evening, and the real dark night is actually only two or three hours, so the Americans arrange their itinerary in this way. Generally speaking, when the sun is about to come out, the road freezes and everyone rushes to the road, and in the afternoon, when the road begins to melt, everyone simply stops, sets up camp, and prepares to rest. Building a camp is the main part of today's learning.

"This is Alaska, it's a wilderness full of dangers, and there are hordes of Alaskan gray wolves here, and these guys are much bigger than their Asian counterparts, and so is the danger. In addition, there are brown bears everywhere here, so the camp must be set up very carefully, otherwise, once everyone falls asleep at night, let these things get close, and the consequences are unimaginable......" Every time James said a word, Su Manshu whispered a sentence to the people next to him. Although everyone learned some English before coming, James's accent was very strong, so Su Manshu was still needed to translate for everyone a lot of the time.

"On the march, the construction of the camp is a top priority, and in general, a qualified camp must have such characteristics......"

While speaking, James also took out a common camp construction diagram to analyze the principle of this arrangement, as well as the corresponding advantages and disadvantages.

"Alright, I'm done with what needs to be said. Now, with a few hours left until dark, you make your own arrangements and prepare to set up camp on your own. Also, don't use the barbed wire fence on the car, because in the future when you revolutionize, you may not have this thing......"

……

After several hours of work, the Restoration Society finally set up their camp, but after James and the Blackwater instructors saw it, they found a lot of faults, and as a result, many places had to be reworked. came and went, tossing and turning until dark, and then the camp was barely set up.

"Jingxiong, in the past, Chen Guang's predecessors said that we can't endure hardship, and I am still a little unconvinced. From today's point of view, Chen Guang's predecessor is really right. After finishing his work, although he was extremely tired, Xu Xilin felt that there was still a stomach in his stomach and he didn't vomit unpleasantly, so he complained to Qiu Jin who was next to him, "You see that when such a camp was built today, there are many places where James has found out the problem, in fact, everyone doesn't know what to do and does it wrong, it's all for laziness, wanting to save trouble, and the problem that comes out as a result." In fact, this is the fear of hardship, that is, the refusal to endure hardship. In fact, this is not a hurry, and we really have to do it honestly and seriously from the beginning, but I'm afraid that we are already sleeping now. Doing things is more difficult and tired, in fact, it is more fatal than being afraid of death. I am afraid that China is so backward now, and a big reason is that I am afraid of hardship and tiredness. ”
