Chapter 1603: Seven. Travel to the Republic (1)

Victory is the best wine and the strongest and worst stimulant. As long as you have tasted the thrill of a hearty victory, any medicine will look dwarfed. No matter how desperate a person is, after experiencing that kind of complete liberation and ecstasy, he will indulge in it and become a gambler who completely loses his senses in order to win more victories.
In the past, Charlemagne missed the war at the most favorable time because of this "victory addiction" symptom. If Charlieman offered to negotiate truce before entering the Rhine, Yalfheim was probably under the pressure of international public opinion. I can only accept that the future history will probably develop in the direction that the elf camp does not like. If it really becomes like that, a certain agent who was still a dictator at that time would have to seriously think about "how fast and economical it is in various countries. The city has a mushroom cloud."
Fortunately, in order to avoid the post-war bankruptcy nightmare, the Kingdom of Charlemagne, who was on the verge of financial bankruptcy, chose to invest the remaining assets in the final game, hoping to use the panacea called "victory" to resurrect. Everyone knows what happened afterwards.
Victory is important, valuable, and must be achieved. However, if everything is hoped for victory and conquest, it can only prove that this country or organization has become deeply immersed in the symptoms of addiction and cannot extricate itself.
The empire certainly cannot embark on such a path.
So sometimes a small frustration that is harmless is still necessary for this emerging country that has not been born for long, so as not to burst out of self-confidence and create some unmanageable hands.
"The biggest problem for emerging countries in the rising period is the excess of self-confidence and pride. The excess is almost like a narcissism, and it is superior to other countries in everything, even rising to the level of faith. This sense of superiority and The result of blind faith is the loss of a fair and objective viewpoint, and the rigor and calmness that can properly examine itself and the surroundings. To put it bluntly, this is a typical upstart mentality."
Pushing the reviewed document in front of Niederhogger, Li Lin got up slowly and slowly paced to the huge floor-to-ceiling window.
Sanssouci (), whose name is taken from Charlemagne's "Worry-free", the architectural style inherited from the Palace of Versailles, and other Empire-like buildings that imitated Charlemagne, surpassed the original in terms of specifications, but compared to many large and improper Imitation, Sanssouci has added a lot of classicism and modern elements to the design, layout, decoration and other details, and more emphasis on habitability and functionality. Compared with the so-called neoclassical style that likes to abuse velvet, crystal chandeliers, marble floors, giant columns, and plaster decoration, this low-key luxury style is more refined and majestic, and it has a sense of oppression of all living beings.
Not many people know that the original designers intended to build Sanssouci into a larger, more luxurious and luxurious palace than the Palace of Versailles. The original plan of this group of ghosts actually had a plan similar to the Soviet Palace-the entire palace is a super high-rise building, more than 500 meters high, of which 100 meters belong to the giant gilded emperor statue, the entire palace is the base ...
This is just a case. The vast majority of the remaining design solutions are replicas or improved versions of Charlemagne or other national palaces, which are extremely lacking in originality and beauty. If it weren’t for the emperor’s own design proposal to be even more appalling (completely a fortress with a bunker), those gadgets with a rich upstart flavour would probably turn from drawings to reality. After some hard work and coordination, the final plan is now what it looks like-a palace and royal garden with the theme of low-key majesty.
"Upstarts are not a problem in themselves. The name of the empire is inherited from the old Kingdom of Gilmania thousands of years ago. But in the eyes of other countries, we are just a group of emerging upstarts, holding suspicious genealogy to cling to their ancestors. Yu Guang came to cover up the nasty ghosts of despicable origin. If they were not afraid of the powerful force of the empire, they would not bother to conceal such contempt. And we are also aware of this, so we spare no effort to strengthen the force, because that is the pillar, Supports fragile self-esteem and a sense of security."
This is actually a common problem for all upstarts, the difference is only in the specific symptoms. The symptom of the Empire's performance is its extreme enthusiasm for the great construction and expansion of armaments.
"Bringing unnecessary emotions and unhealthy mentality into work will only cause trouble, not to mention major military affairs. I believe this failure should give the diplomatic system and the military those who are above-the-eyes a profound lesson. Let them know that nothing is taken for granted. There are many guys who are more capable and faster than them. This will help them in their future work."
"Your Majesty said so."
Niederhogger bowed his head convincingly.
In terms of a series of situations he has recently learned, as well as personal experience at work, the situation described by Li Lin not only exists, but is even very serious in individual units.
Perhaps the victory was too thorough, and the results were too generous. Many officials of the empire and ordinary high-ranking citizens showed symptoms of excessive addiction to victory. Just as Charlemagne was once unable to extricate himself from the thrill of victory, today's empire is beginning to show signs of danger.
The most direct manifestation is that on foreign-related issues, there are more and more voices within the empire demanding to show a tough posture or even use force. Although it has not yet reached the kind of Charlieman's constant movement, the people shouted "Washing the shame with who's blood", "Must burn the capital of a country" so crazy~EbookFREE.me~ Similar signs of mania have started Appearance.
Now it is really necessary to beat this group of hot guys with the help of capable people outside the empire to cool down their overheated brains.
The so-called "capable person outside the empire" refers to Roland.
Perhaps it is because of the fact that they have always dominated the confrontation. The senior military and political officials of the empire were always accustomed to viewing the "Legion of Liberty" with a superior sense of sight. They looked down on this group of resistance in their hearts, thinking that their opponent was just a group of ants, and they could be trampled to death anytime, anywhere. The reason for leaving it alone is just to keep the military production and economic cycle of the empire going. These insurgents, who are not even fourth-class citizens, can contribute to the empire with their own flesh and blood. Fortunately for Sansheng. In the reports submitted by the officers and troops directly at the grassroots level, who directly dealt with the "Liberty Legion", the growth and warnings of the opponent were automatically ignored by the so-called "big men" above.
-Too cautious.
-There is a suspicion of praising the enemy and belittle the empire.
Whether there is the possibility of exaggerating the strength of opponents and reducing their own responsibilities.
Such prejudiced comments are written in the notes of the report, without even the least modification.
Since this group of guys can't see anything except prejudice, let them use Roland's hand to give them a big ear scraper, and let them see if the things written in the report are true. This face-shock education is undoubtedly the fastest and most effective treatment.
