Chapter 510 Iron Ambition
Shao Quanzhong said, there are too many crazy people around me, and I am the only normal person.

He couldn't help but feel a little confused. Could it be that - I was actually going in the opposite direction?

After listening to Tan Yaoxun's detailed plan, Shao Quanzhong pondered for a long time and responded slowly.

"Xiao Tan, I can support you in the first step of the plan. We can concentrate our scientific and technological strength to build a super rocket. At least we can send reconnaissance equipment or radio broadcasting equipment into space. This has military value."

"As for the Rod of God you mentioned, I always feel it's unreliable. It might be better to send a bomber for a trip. I can give it a try then."

"However, as a byproduct, a rocket that can hit 8000 kilometers is a weapon that a great power needs to truly dominate the world. We must have it. If the budget is not too much, we can spend it."

"As for whether it is necessary to spend so much money to send people to space, or even to the moon, we will have to wait and see the situation in a few years."

Daxia has created an economic miracle. Its GDP has quadrupled in seven years, exceeding 20 billion taels of silver. That is the total revenue, and the tax revenue is less than million taels.

The 400 million taels will be spent on all aspects, of which 60 million taels will be spent on education, which cannot be saved.

If all 400 million people receive education, Daxia's technical talents will soon exceed the total of other countries. This is the real foundation for dominating the world, and Shao Quanzhong knows this better than anyone else.

Now the Hailing Arsenal is building analysis machines for warships, one for each large warship, including cruisers. The first batch will produce dozens of them, which was impossible before.

Because Daxia’s technical school students continue to graduate, the number of senior technicians is now beginning to surge.

The analytical engine is currently still Daxia's unique secret. Other countries cannot learn it even if they know it - there are not so many level 8 fitters. This is the bonus brought by the advantage of a high-quality population.

The foundation is what matters the most. Being overly radical in pursuing things like sending a man to the moon will only harm the country if it is just a spectacle.

Of course, when the country is strong enough, it can be done. A wonder that can be completed relatively easily will not harm the country. This requires Shao Quanzhong to consider.

The fullness of a man's waist determines the hardness of his waist.

Fortunately, Xiao Tan's plan is divided into three steps. Let's try it out. It's okay to take the first step to test it out. Maybe when we need to take the second step, the economic foundation will be sufficient.

Of course, if it is strategically necessary and things become important, sometimes you need to tighten your belt to build an important wonder...

Fortunately, Da Xia is now in the lead, so they can move more slowly.

After receiving the first round of funding, which was enough to last for several years, Tan Yaoxun left in great joy, but Shao Quanzhong closed his eyes and thought a lot...

…………

Switzerland, Engadine alpine resort Hills-Maria.

Here lived a genius German philosopher - Nietzsche.

Nietzsche was four years younger than Shao Quanzhong, but he had already achieved success and lived in seclusion.

He lived in seclusion for health reasons. Because of his excessive thinking about human and cosmic issues, his mind was always in an excited state of "being drunk without drinking", and his health was in trouble.

Living in seclusion did not prevent his inspiration from flowing like a river. Today, he stopped writing at his desk and completed another great book, titled "The Joyful Science".

The master's books were published quickly, circulated around the world, and led the world trend.

…………

April 1882, 4, in the small town of Peenemünde, on the island of Usedom in northeastern Germany.

This is Germany’s newly established rocket research base. Today, the great Prime Minister Waldersee came to inspect it.

Looking up at the rocket taking off from the ground, flying high into the sky with its tail flame and quickly disappearing, Waldersee's face became abnormally flushed and he entered a state of "drunkenness without drinking".

Six minutes later, the battleship Brunswick, which had a radio transmitting antenna installed on its mast, sent a telegram from the Baltic Sea saying, "The launch was successful."

Waldersee pointed to the southeast and gritted his teeth. "At the Versailles Peace Conference, we lost the Danzig Corridor. East Prussia was isolated and became an enclave. This is the greatest shame for Germany."

"Today, we are becoming stronger step by step. All the shame must be paid with blood. I name this rocket 'Avenger'."

"Report, Prime Minister, Tolstoy has published an open letter to you."

Waldersee took the newspaper, which contained the exhortation of the literary giant Tolstoy. The first sentence was, "Repent..." Waldersee's eyes suddenly turned red. "Bah! This is the sarcastic words of a bystander. We don't need the guidance of bystanders."

Waldersee took out Nietzsche's new work and said, "Did you see it? Master Nietzsche is the leader of our unyielding spirit. God is dead, and the world needs a superman to lead it. We need to use our swords to find broader and richer land for our plows."

The followers behind him all admired Waldersee. After all, this man made everyone drink milk and eat bread, and was also leading the country to rise.

Schlieffen, who succeeded Waldersee as the new Chief of the General Staff, shouted excitedly, "Chancellor Waldersee is our leader, the superman on earth!"

The soldiers behind him cheered, "Hi, Waldersee!"

Waldersee returned the greeting, holding his hands up, "Schlieffen, our Panzer III tank has been finalized, right? We need to speed up the development of the Panzer IV tank as fire support."

"The factory's production capacity must be increased. Don't be stingy with the lives of those vampire slaves. They must atone for their mistakes. If necessary, we must have the capacity to produce 10,000 tanks in a few years."

Schlieffen puffed out his chest and said, "There is no problem with production capacity, but we are restricted by the treaty and can only support 100,000 regular troops..."

Waldersee waved his hand and said, "No! We don't need so many regular troops. All the young men in Germany are good soldiers for us."

"I declare that I will immediately form my own personal guard. This is not a regular army, but just a loyal security guard for Germany, right?"

"I want to expand this guard to 40, 60, or even 80 people. This will be the foundation of our revival. This guard will be formed now, and it will be the sharpest sword in our hands - the 'Iron Cross Youth Army'."

"Now, the Great Depression is raging, Britain and France are unable to take care of themselves, and only the strong support behind us, Daxia, is thriving in the world."

"Our economy is growing against the trend, which shows that this land needs our leadership. A unified Europe will become the third largest continent in the world along with the East and the New World. Children, keep fighting!"

"Hi, Waldersee!"

As Waldersee's iron ambition rose again, warships such as the Brandenburg, Kaiser Friedrich III, Wiechelsbach, and Deutschland set out from the port of Hamburg.

The warship was filled with "security personnel" wearing Iron Cross armbands, and a new round of expansion began.

On May 5, the Iron Cross Youth Army occupied Togo, on May 23 they occupied Cameroon, on June 5 they occupied Southwest Africa, and on July 30, they landed in Tanzania and announced the establishment of the "German East Africa" ​​colony.

Waldersee began to explore the world by expanding his colonies on a large scale.

…………

In Qiao Garden, the south main gate was wide open, and Shao Quanzhong met with his German friends in the Nanchuang Ji'ao Hall.

This was an expedition team, led by Waldersee's good friend and loyal follower, General von Albertil.

"Your Majesty, we came to Daxia to explore the plateau."

"According to the ancient history that we have inherited, the Germanic people originated from the ancient continent of Atlantis. In the distant past, the world entered an ice age, Atlantis sank, and all humans on the surface of the earth became extinct."

"Our ancestors once had a glorious civilization and were the best of the previous generation of mankind. They built a secret underground base at the axis of the earth and survived."

"Our ancestors left Shangri-La and recreated human civilization on earth, but we have lost too much of the ancient high technology."

"We are here to try to find Shangri-La, the place where civilization originated. We believe it is somewhere underground on that plateau."

"Daxia and we are descendants of the same civilization. Once we obtain the lost technology of the ancient times, we will join forces to rule the world."

General Albertil talked incessantly, and Shao Quanzhong responded with a smile. He also ordered all places to warmly welcome German friends and cooperate with their scientific investigations.

When the expedition team set out, Shao Quanzhong shook his head and sighed, "I'm sure Waldersee has gone completely crazy..."

"Report to the Marshal, great changes have taken place in the Li Dynasty."

"The Wuweiying and Zhuangweiying, which guarded the capital, mutinied and defeated the new army "Beogyi Army" established by Queen Min, and entered the palace."

"The regent Queen Min is missing, the puppet King Yi Hee is unable to control the situation, and there is no one in charge of the Yi Dynasty. Please make a quick decision, Marshal."
