Chapter 612 The value of people

In April 1895, east of Verdun, France.

"For victory!"

“Oh oh oh!”

In the German army's positions, there are increasing troops these days, and there are more and more people, and there are various weapons and equipment, which is like mountains and seas!

"Teacher, what do you think we are doing?" Adolf was still chatting with his teacher, Marx Weber as before, just as before.

"My Adolf, do you believe it? I think this war seems to be coming to an end." Marx Weber spoke in a very wise, that is, very philosophical way.

"Teacher, we are on the battlefield now." Adolf couldn't help it and complained to his teacher.

"Of course I know, but what if we don't regard this place as a battlefield in our hearts?" Marx Webber seemed to want to attend class.

"..." Adolf was speechless, so he had to change the topic, "That, what we talked about before, the relationship between Protestantism, capitalism, society, and humanity, teacher, don't you think that the conclusion you came to can easily deduce a conclusion?"

Alas, don't say that this war is about fighting, but sometimes, you can really understand some truths. This is how Adolf is at this time.

"What's the conclusion?" Marx Weber became energetic. You know, he really liked his student now. This little guy can always give him unexpected surprises.

"It's very simple." Adolf spread his hands and said that this is just an easy thing. "Thank you to your teacher about capitalism, religion and humanity, that is, the responsibility of Protestants in the capitalist world is to make money, so it can be easily derived. In terms of the current human world, human value is reflected in money, and it can even be simply deduced. Everything about human beings can be expressed in money, that is, our emotions, everything about us can be measured according to the amount of money, that is, the more money a person will have a higher moral standard. The more money a person will be, the nobler and perfect a person!"

I have to say that this theoretical deduction is indeed a bit unacceptable, because in the traditional moral concept of human beings, even Jews who attach the most importance to business will not think so, but...

"Oh! My God! You are really so kind to me! On such a chaotic battlefield, I gave me a genius! Ha! My little Adolf! You are really a genius! Absolute genius!"

Unexpectedly, Marx Webber was so happy after hearing this, and he praised it!

This...it seems to be like a philosopher, especially a very powerful philosopher, who considers different things from ordinary people. Obviously, Marx Weber seemed to have found a treasure at this time, but he was so happy anyway.

but……

"Teacher." At this time, Adolf couldn't bear to look at his teacher, because he thought that the inference was problematic, so Adolf said with a lip : "But I think this inference is obviously problematic, for example, how can human emotions be measured by money? How can human moral standards be fully reflected by money? Teacher, you have to admit it too? There are always those selfless people. The contributions they make to this world cannot be measured by money."

Adolf himself came up with the inference. But he himself felt that there was something wrong, which is normal. A scholar needs to have a spirit of thinking, even though Adolf is not a scholar yet.

"No, no, no, my Adolf, you are right, but from the perspective of the whole society, all this is reflected in money in the end. There is nothing wrong with it, really. Just imagine, even if it is human emotions, isn't the pattern shown? If you show love to your lover, you should at least buy a rose? Don't you know, hundreds of years ago, when the French nobles expressed their love to their lovers, they would offer a tulip, and the tulip was 1,000 francs per flower, which caused the Dutch tulip bubble. You see, isn't this a clear proof?"

It is worthy of being Marx Weber, and it is worthy of being a knowledgeable guy. This example is simply Balabara...

"Teacher." Adolf wanted to say something, because he always felt that humans could not reflect their value to money. That was simply too vulgar, or it was simply an insult to humans!

But to be honest, he had heard such a saying before, and as for where and who he was, he seemed to be unable to remember...

However, Marx Webber really seemed to have discovered a gold mine. He continued: "If you don't say it far away, you don't pay attention to the popular advertising slogan now? Diamonds are forever, and one will be passed down forever!"

"this……"

By the way, this advertising slogan comes from Kimberley Mining Company in Johannesburg, South Africa, which is currently the most important diamond production company. This company is now constantly advertising in Europe, one man and one woman, and then the two are particularly close, and even the thing they do is a bit shameless. But it doesn't matter. In the end, we are love. How should we do love? Buy a diamond.

As for who made this ad slogan, what you can see at the moment is a guy named Theodore Roosevelt, who is the boss of Kimberley.

Well, let’s not talk about South Africa anymore, and the child Adolf...

"Teacher, I think there must be pure love in this world! What kind of diamonds! That thing cannot pollute that pure!" Adolf is still... he is indeed a little naive.

"Hahaha..." Marx Webber laughed, "My little Adolf, are you thinking of a woman? Oh, that's right, you should go find a girl at your age. It's all this war that makes you, hahaha... don't be embarrassed..."

this……

No one could imagine that at such an important juncture in a world war, someone was discussing philosophical issues and the love of young people...

That's right, most people don't think so, and most people are concerned about the result of this war.

"Old Master! We have mobilized all the resources we can mobilize to the vicinity of Verdun, with 5 armies, 30 divisions, more than 350,000 men, 1,000 heavy artillery, 800 mortars, more than 2,000 trucks, and 100 chariots..."

At the German Army headquarters in Berlin, a young officer was reporting to Xiao Maoqi that his beard was very beautiful and he was very energetic. Anyone who saw it was a very promising general. This person was indeed very promising. He was the chief staff officer of the headquarters, Erich von Farkinhan!

Farkinhan was only in his 30s at this time and was definitely one of the most promising officers in Germany. And he was still in a big war at this time, so his promotion would definitely not be slow. As a soldier, if he wants to be promoted quickly, there must be a war.

"Okay, I understand! Order Salifen and Hindenburg in front of you to make all preparations and wait for the order!" Xiao Maoqi waved his hand immediately after hearing the report.

"Yes!" Fa Jinhan saluted and went out.

"..." When Xiao Mao Qi was left alone, his brows frowned.

It should be said that the real commander of the German army at this time was Xiao Maoqi. Although his official position was the chief of staff, in fact, this was the most powerful official.

Because Germany is still a monarchy country, the highest military commander, of course, is German Emperor William II. Even many of the legion commanders under him are nobles and royal families. This is very normal. You must catch the gun.

In fact, the original Japanese in Asia also learned this way. Those who went out to lead the troops must at least be someone the emperor trusted and given a chrysanthemum knife or something.

The power of the staff is great, which is a characteristic of the imperial state.

Xiao Maoqi was not considering power issues at this time, but the coming war!

After mobilizing so many troops, you should know that after the war began, the two sides had already begun to enter a confrontation. Don’t underestimate these 300,000 people. This is definitely the greatest power of Germany at present. Other fronts also need people, and those nearly 2,000 cannons are not a trivial matter.

Just go to a common colony, and you bring two cannons to take their hometown for yourself...

But...responsibility!

Xiao Maoqi felt tremendous pressure. He was afraid of failure and was very afraid of failure. He was not a very decisive guy at all. He has always been famous for his wisdom.

Often, people with higher intelligence think a lot, but now Mao Qi always thinks, what if the strategy fails this time?

There is no way, this is not a question of confidence or not, but the battle has ended here, and there have been too many failure cases!

This was how Shi Lifen had rushed over, but in the end... it was fine. Shi Lifen came back and his opponent made a mistake. After that... his many combat plans did not really achieve the result he wanted, and this time...

As before, the previous process was done according to one's own ideas. For example, Russia stabbed the knife in the back and was beaten back by Germany. And this time, whether in terms of reason, in terms of war, or in terms of public opinion, Germany killed Russia. Don't worry about the Eastern Front, you can put all the chips on the Western Front!

That's right, this is very similar to a big bet, but this time it bet is not only the army in my hands, but also the national destiny of the German Empire!

In fact, after all, the current war has entered a quagmire. If this stalemate continues, Germany's geographical location is weak because there are not many sea ports and the Pacific Empire has declared war. If it is sealed, the German Empire can only be slaughtered, so...

"Transfer my order and attack in three days!" (To be continued.)
