Chapter 189: Dongsheng Shenzhou
An undercurrent of geopolitical contest is beginning to surge.
At the same time, the Japanese government announced that it would send an international emergency rescue team of about 70 people to the country to participate in the emergency assistance mission due to a tsunami that struck the country due to a major earthquake in the northern waters of the country. The aid team will travel to Ming Province on a Self-Defense Force plane.
Although the intentions of various countries to the Ming country are good, but the disaster of the Ming country is far from that big, only 8 people were swept away by the tsunami in Yingzhou, only 3 tourists were swept away in Xuanzhou Island, the earthquake caused the collapse of tower cranes at many construction sites, causing dozens of deaths and nearly 100 injuries.
However, when these rescue teams come, they will still do some tsunami quarantine work on the island to prevent an epidemic on the island.
More than 300 aftershocks have caused many buildings under construction to have more or less problems, but the quality of the buildings in the Ming Kingdom is basically guaranteed, and only one construction site has cracks and collapsed.
The new semester of Mingguo had to be held in the grass and woods of the campus, the professors gave lessons to the students under the sun, so that the students were very moved, many foreign reporters recorded this moment, Mingguo's education is really too touching, the professors in the earthquake, there are classrooms, there is no multimedia, they teach students in the open outdoors, the students do not have any head-to-head in class, all of them are listening very carefully.
The freshmen were not so lucky, many students were too playful, missed classes for several days in a row, and were directly persuaded to quit, and later under the advice of the students' parents, they were allowed to study for a semester.
Toto University stipulates that all students with poor grades will be repeated. If you fail to graduate, all students who miss too much class or have serious disciplinary violations will be expelled. It must not affect the reputation of Dongdu University.
This made these children who had just come to Mingguo a little restrained.
Earthquakes are finally getting fewer and fewer, and people are surprised to find that in the north of the Ming Kingdom, there is a huge uplift of land that rushes out of the sea level, Ming Zhongshu Province, Prime Minister Song Ximo announced the sovereignty of the Ming Empire over the island for the first time, and named the new island "Dongsheng Shenzhou", referred to as "Shenzhou".
The name of Dongsheng Shenzhou Island has several meanings.
And the first layer of meaning. As the name suggests, Shenzhou is also a land of God's gifts.
The second meaning is that it originated from ancient Chinese Buddhist thought, and there are four continents in the world. In the first chapter of Journey to the West, Dongsheng Shenzhou was mentioned, and the Ming Kingdom was in the easternmost part of the world, so there was nothing wrong with calling it Dongsheng Shenzhou.
The third level means that because the land ruled by the Yellow Emperor is called Shenzhou. Historical Records. The Biography of Mencius Xunqing: China's name is Chixian Shenzhou; "General Theory of Ancient and Modern": 5,000 miles southeast of Kunlun is called Shenzhou, and there are 3,000 miles of Hetang Township in the state. The domain of the Five Mountains. The house of the emperor is also born of a saint; "Mixed Yuan Shengji": In the past, in Shenzhou, the way of immortals was used to educate the world, from the three emperors, the second and five emperors, and all of them were immortals; "Taiqing Golden Liquid Divine Pill Sutra": But the ancient sages used Chinese Shenzhou and Kyushu Island with gossip, and they were on the pole. Under the center of the earth, Kyushu Island is in this ear. But Huaxia is already called Shenzhou. Therefore, the Ming Kingdom was named Shenzhou.
When the whole world celebrated, the emperor of the Ming Kingdom announced that the Ming Kingdom officially regarded the Eastern Heavenly King as the guardian saint of the Ming Kingdom.
In the future, a Tennoji Temple will be built on Mount Meru on Dongsheng Shenzhou and Mount Meru on Yingzhou Island, which will be dedicated to the Heavenly King of the Eastern Kingdom.
The "Four Heavenly Kings" is the name of the four law-abiding gods in Chinese Mahayana Buddhism, namely the Heavenly King of the Eastern Holding State, the Southern Growth Heavenly King, the Western Wide-eyed Heavenly King and the Northern Duowen Heavenly King, which is the most important protector god in the Buddhist Garan, and the dojo is said to be in Mount Meru.
In Taoist legends, the four heavenly kings are also the guardian gods of the four heavenly gates of the heavenly realm, called the "four generals of the demon family", respectively, the king of the eastern kingdom Mo Lihai
The two monasteries are Buddhist monasteries and Taoist monasteries.
All the people of the Ming Kingdom were overjoyed by the news, in an island country, the people are easily filled with the mentality of the island country, no one wants the territory to be too narrow and lack of security, with a new land, and the area is so large, everyone is very happy, so the various enterprises are excited to give employees a holiday. Many citizens took to the streets to celebrate the birth of Shenzhou Island.
They had the national flag of the Ming Kingdom painted on their faces, and the procession was mighty, waving thousands of Ming national flags and Ming royal insignia flags in their hands.
Many merchants began to sell statues and scrolls with the image of the king, and the people rushed to buy them.
At Dongdu University, the professors of geography immediately measured the earth by satellite, and the area should be about 27,040 square kilometers, and the positive and negative deviations will not be worse than 10 square meters. This figure is much larger than the 16,759 square kilometers of the Hawaiian Islands in the United States.
The island's topography is hilly, and satellite remote sensing measures have estimated that there are 5 mountains above 400 meters above sea level, and the highest peak is 600 meters. The largest of these lakes is located in the western part of the island and reaches 3,000 square kilometers.
Dongsheng Shenzhou is almost attached to the new island that was created last year, and the new island is like its satellite island, with a narrow strait, which is 70 kilometers long at its widest point and only 37 kilometers at its narrowest point.
The administrative division of Dongsheng Shenzhou Island also began to be designed by Zhongshu Province, which was very efficient, and soon came up with a plan to temporarily divide the island into five counties according to the topography.
There are also nearly 1,000 small islands in the western part of Dongsheng Shenzhou Island, which is directly named Qiandao County.
Needless to say, this 27,000-square-kilometer island is the territory of the Ming Kingdom and cannot be lost. Ming immediately dispatched navy patrol boats, fighter planes, and helicopters to patrol the island every day.
The territory of the Ming Kingdom was successfully expanded tenfold according to Zhu Wei's idea, and this time Zhu Wei was satisfied, his requirements were not high, and such a large land was enough for him to use.
This kind of happy event is known all over the world, many countries are very envious of the Ming country, since the birth of more than a year, nature has given them two land, like some island countries that are about to be submerged are extremely envious, but there is no way, their country can not withstand this kind of beating.
But when I think about it, the disaster is getting bigger and bigger every time. This shows that the geology there is extremely unstable.
Many countries proposed to spend a huge amount of money to buy the new island of Mingguo, but they were all rejected by Mingguo, this is a small island that Zhu Wei desperately got to get, and it will not be so easy to expand the island in the future, I can say that I will sell it to you.
