Chapter 278 The Collision of Two Historical Perspectives

"Heroes and Xianwang?"

Paul was a little surprised.

"Yes! Only a strong hero and a wise king can lead the people to victory. The major turning points in the vast history have confirmed this countless times."

Monde Landon smiled and said his view, but he quickly saw that Paul showed an indiscriminate look.

"What? Count Graman, do you disagree with this view?"

Paul laughed and said, "I don't agree with it. I am not a scholar who studies history. In this regard, I don't have my own conclusions. However, I have listened to others that I have said the opposite view of you."

"Oh? Please say it in detail."

"May wish to refer to the view that only your hero and the wise king can lead the people as [History History]."

Monde nodded: "Well, the word is very appropriate."

Paul continued: "And I heard a [people's view of history] from others."

This time it was changed to Monde Langdon: "The history of the people? What is this?"

Paul thought about it, and finally copied that sentence in the end: "The people, only the people are the motivation to create world history."

Before Paul's expectation, Monde's face did not show his opposition immediately, but novelty: "Where does this view come from?"

Paul asked: "So how did you formed your [Heroes History]?"

"Isn't this obvious? In the mythical age, there is no credible historical materials, so we will not say it. We take the ancient Bella Empire as an example. Before it was established, humans were under pressure from all sides of the world. Under the leadership and conquest of Li Ang, the greatest empire in human history was born, and Li Angdi, who was rough, led the human army to resist the waves of invasion of alien races. The five generations of Xianjun Li Jingtu had accumulated the overwhelming strength of the alien. The elves are deeply hidden in the forest. With huge, without them, there is no current status of our human beings, there is no magnificent history. "

Monde said so much in one breath, and finally emphasized: "This is recognized by the historic community."

Paul nodded: "Well, this is right, I have read carefully about the history of the Gubella Empire and those heroic deeds. But have you ever thought, those heroes are just doing it on key historical nodes. It's just the right choice.

Looking at Monde's incredible eyes, Paul emphasized: "I declare again, this is also from others." He didn't want to make himself too special.

Paul continued: "The reason why the Bella Empire can achieve human unity is because under the threat of aliens, not only the nobles above, the vast number of people at the bottom also desire to have a stronger collective to provide asylum for themselves. In addition to the threats of aliens, there are many important reasons, such as the development of agriculture requires the construction of large -scale projects, and the development of commercial development has opened up the road. The most powerful one, so he will complete the unification. Of course, his strength is also inseparable from the support of his people. "

"The Bella Empire's counterattack and expedition to the alien race is because the empire nourishes more and more population, and inevitably requires more land to support it. The second son and the soldiers who are eager to get wealth have also promoted the occurrence of the Great Expedition, even the main promoter, and the whole society has a desire to expand. "

Monde said slightly: "This is just the cause, including many people, including me. But the result -such as the victory of the expedition, heroes are the decisive factor."

Paul shook his head: "Uh ... according to the view of the people's history, the heroes should be retired. Take the Great Expedition as an example, the main factor that determines the victory is not the outstanding military talents of Elian and others, but because The empire can smell more metals, create more weapons, produce more food, form more obedient military forces, and the centralized system produced by agricultural society is compared to the loose tribe alliances of alien people ... In short Various factors have given the human army's unparalleled advantages. Without these, Avean and others cannot win even if they have gods. A farmer, craftsman and soldiers.

Monde surprised: "For the first time, I heard such so indifferent heroes."

"No, scholar, you are wrong!" Paul quickly denied: "This is not to despise them. Their talents are undoubtedly outstanding. Their achievements are undoubtedly great. Their names are undoubtedly worthy of commemorative future generations- It's just that they are not unable to replace, "" "

"From a macro perspective, history seems to be full of inevitability. After humans have mastered advanced technology and made great leaps in productivity, they will inevitably give birth to a centralized empire, and an increasingly prosperous empire will inevitably have a desire for expansion. The heroes just happen to be in that position. If there is no such thing as Emperor Li Ang and famous generals such as Elyan, then their roles will be played by another group of people to complete the mission given by history."

Just as even without him traveling here, there would inevitably be an industrial revolution with the development of productivity, and his arrival only catalyzed this process.

Mond's body was stiff and his eyes were firm as he said: "Is history inevitable? This sounds like what the church's gang of sticks preached. The Lord of Light has already arranged everything."

Seeing the other party's appearance, Paul's vanity was greatly satisfied. He never expected that some messy clips he saw on the Internet from his previous life would shock a scholar in the Bachelor's Tower.

There is no mistake. One post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, one read!

He continued: "To be specific, history is inevitable in the macro direction, but when it comes to a specific event, it is more accidental, but chance only plays a role in accelerating or delaying. The actions of heroes are to some extent It can advance or delay the development process of history, but it will not change its direction. The reason why the "heroic view of history" occupies the mainstream is inevitable, and the writers of historical books will unconsciously focus on it. Heroes are used to unfold the narrative. After all, the recording method is limited. It is impossible to record everyone's names and events. It can only record those who are particularly outstanding and outstanding. It is easier for readers who look through these historical materials to see the deeds of heroes. It creates a sense of immersion and inevitably creates a sense of admiration. But if it is an analysis of social systems and introduction to historical materials such as production relations, it will be boring, and many people will skip it.”

Mond was speechless for a long time after hearing this. He wanted to refute, but he felt that in some respects, what Paul said was correct.

"Although...well, what you said...oh no, there is some truth to that statement."

In the end, Mond had to say this. His world view was slightly impacted today.
