Surrendered!

How did they surrender as soon as they started fighting.

Surrendered so quickly?

Just as Li Fugui had just ordered the gunners to continue the shelling, he saw someone holding a white flag in the smoke of gunpowder, waving it as he walked.

They surrendered!

Can these people have a little backbone!

After so many years of fighting, he had never seen such a spineless person as these people. If you want to fight, just hit it hard, and let the big guys have fun.

With such an unclear mind, where do you want everyone's interest to go? In fact, these children, they have been looking forward to it for months, just waiting to fight you. It's good that you actually surrendered, or are you not gentlemen?

At that moment, he seemed to understand why the Emperor Zhengde would put the captured King Ning back. Why haven't you ever been addicted?

If there is a choice. Even he himself wants to drive these people who fly the white flag back, and then fight them again.

It's fucking spineless.

Not only Li Fugui thinks so, but even those children also think so. For these children who are looking forward to fighting a good battle, they never thought that their first battle would end like this.

Of course, they will not be reconciled, after all, in their imagination, the first battle of their lives should be the kind of bloody battle full of all kinds of bloody memories.

But for now, they haven't fired a few shots. The other side just surrendered.

Oh my God. These people are too spineless. It's not just that it doesn't bulge, it's just a bunch of soft eggs.

"Instructor, they surrendered so quickly, there will be no fraud!"

"yes, I'll see, we've only been fighting for ten minutes......"

"It's only been ten minutes, I thought it was an hour......

"How did these people surrender so quickly?"

……

If Starovoyev heard this, he would be so angry that he vomited blood, and he was not willing to surrender, but their artillery would explode.

Indeed, the damage caused by those shells that exploded on the ground and could even explode in the air completely subverted the imagination of these Cossacks, who fought all the way from Europe to East Asia, relying on artillery and arquebuses, but never thought that one day they would be bombarded by artillery and did not even have the strength to fight back, but it was only the blink of an eye, and there were less than sixty people left in the team of 134 people, and even if they were, a third of them were injured.

Where did everyone else go? More than half of them were killed on the spot, and a small half of them had their arms or legs broken, and they couldn't live.

How can such a battle be fought? It's all a death.

However, of course, Starovoyev did not hear this, and just as Dzerzhinsky gave the order to surrender, he desperately jumped into the river, grabbed a log and fled along the river.

In fact, even if he heard it, he would not understand, he could not understand it, and even Dzerzhinsky did not understand the language of these "Tatars".

"It's a Semu Man!"

Finally, when Dzerzhinsky and the others approached, Song Yu and the others realized that the so-called "wild people" were actually a group of people with colored eyes.

"Who are you?"

"Rakshasa and Rakshasa ...... Death"

Dzerzhinsky, kneeling on the ground, struggled to explain where he had come. Seeing the Tatars look confused, he tried to explain in the Mongolian language he knew.

"I, Oro is stupid, Oro is dead......"

"Oro is dead?"

Yu Wenjie pushed Li Fugui away from them, bent down and asked.

"Are you Oros?"

"Mr. Yu knows about Russia?"

"You know, you know, let you read more, read more, the books in the library are all as decorations? There is this country in the "Outer Records of the Staff", called the Rus country, or the Rakshasa country, but because there is a Mongolia between us and them, and because the first R sound of Russia is the tongue roll sound that the Mongolians will not pronounce, so the Mongolians can only read it by adding a vowel in front of it, so that it is introduced into Chinese, and the natural transliteration is "Russia", yes, that's it, "The Atlas of the Sea Kingdom" introduces these. ”

Just when Wen Jie explained triumphantly, he listened to Li Fugui ask.

"Then do you speak Russian?"

In an instant, Yu Wenjie was stunned, Russian?

Who would?

He was still triumphant in front of the students just now, but he was not angry, and said directly.

"I won't, but there must be people in Dalian, there is a Tongwen Museum there, there are people who specialize in learning Europa dialect and writing, and there must be people in Dalian who will."

As early as the Shang Dynasty, translators who were good at the "Four Directions" would be reused and served as interpreters. The Book of Rites records: "The East is called Ji, the South is called Xiang, the West is called Di Zhen, and the North is said to be translated." ”

The meaning of this text is that a translator who knows an oriental language is called a "ji", a translator who is fluent in a southern language is called a "xiang", a translator who knows a western language is called a "diji", and a translator who is familiar with a northern language is called a translator.

During the Zhou Dynasty, the interpreters were collectively referred to as "Xiangxu", and "Xiangxu" was responsible for conveying the edict of the Son of Heaven to the "Di, Man, Rong, and Yi", maintaining the rule of the Son of Heaven over the other countries, vassal states, and states, and appeasing the princes of the Quartet.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the imperial court set up the "Great Honglu" to take charge of the affairs of the border princes and be responsible for external liaison. The supervisor of "Da Honglu" is called "Translator Order". In order to train translators, during the Han Dynasty, the government also set up special schools. According to the "Book of Han": "At the age of eight, he entered primary school and learned the things of Liujia and Wufang calligraphy. The "five directions" here are the places where "Di, Man, Rong, Yi" and so on.

In the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Taizu ordered the establishment of the "Huitong Pavilion" in Tianfu, the compilation of reference books such as the Huayi Translation, and the cultivation of foreign language talents. It can be seen that we Han people originally opened their eyes to the world.

De, that is, when he arrived in the Manchu Dynasty, he just entered the Central Plains as a barbarian, and as a result, he was more arrogant than the previous Central Plains dynasties, claiming to be the Celestial Empire, and closing his eyes and not looking at the world. In contrast, the Ming Dynasty people were open to the West in the same way. Their openness is not limited to exchanges with the traditional regions of the East. When the Age of Discovery came, they also opened their arms to such a Western civilization with a studious mind.

Different from what many people imagine in another world, as early as the Apocalypse in the "Outer Chronicles of the Staff", many major countries in Europe were mentioned, including Ukraine, Scandinavian countries and Greece and other countries that had no interaction with the Ming Dynasty, and the description of human physical geography was basically correct. The European Europa theory was also pioneered by the Ming people. The Ming people's understanding of the world outside China is beyond Zhu Guoqiang's imagination.

Even when he set up the "Tongwenguan" to train foreign language talents to translate foreign books, he was surprised to find that so many people can speak foreign languages, and even many people on his own side can speak foreign languages.

For example, Chen Yujie, Sun Hewu, Sun Hejing, and others, influenced by Xu Guangqi, Sun Yuanhua, and others, not only spoke Latin, but also used Portuguese and Spanish. In addition to them, there are dozens of employees who can speak Portuguese or Spanish. Zhu Guoqiang did not even deliberately recruit these people, and after he proposed the establishment of this organization, more than 50 of his staff members joined the army.

This simply made Zhu Guoqiang feel a kind of "creepy", when Li Changnan and even Fang Yizhi could speak proficiently in Portuguese, Spanish, and even French, he even gave birth to a mistake in the twentieth century, not to mention anything else, even in the officialdom of the late Qing Dynasty, except for the navy, there were not so many people in the yamen who could speak foreign languages.

Why do they speak a foreign language?

Like Li Changzao is a family student, his father is Li Zhizao, Matteo Ricci's friend participated in the drawing of "Kunyu Wanguo Quantu", Li Zhizao was shocked by the size of the world on the map, so he concentrated on Western learning, in fact, many people in the late Ming Dynasty were like this. They were not beaten, and then they thought of learning, just like the Franc machine gun, that is, in the first year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty, He Ru, who was then the inspector of Guangdong, saw this kind of thing on the Portuguese merchant ship, and was surprised at a glance and said, "Yo, things, we don't have it, no, the Great Ming Dynasty must have it", so they secretly recruited craftsmen on the ship to imitate it, and then soon it was better than the blue.

Active learning comes from strong curiosity, almost every European missionary who came to China has recorded this strong "curiosity" of the Chinese, just like Matteo Ricci, whether in Nanchang, Nanjing, or Beijing, "people's curiosity seems to be crazy", visitors are endless, just want to understand Western things, gentlemen, officials, and even relatives of the emperor, are full of curiosity about Western learning and technology. Even those who could not meet him in remote areas such as Yunnan and Ningxia would correspond to him through letters, and he received many letters, many of whom he did not know at all, but who were happy to discuss with him in letters Catholicism, science and technology, and other topics. Of course, it's more about technology and other aspects of the discussion.

After all...... This is an era of "decay of etiquette and music", and an era of pride in not reading the Four Books and the Five Classics. After all, as early as the Zhengde Dynasty in the Ming Dynasty, scholars regarded the knowledge of the Five Classics as pedantic. In the Wanli Dynasty, scholars were embarrassed to say that they liked to read. It is nothing more than feeling that the eight strands are useless, finding another way out in thought, and beginning to widely pursue the practical value of knowledge.

As a result, the fresh, novel Western science pierced the night sky like a bolt of lightning, so that the scholars who aroused disdain and pedantic scholars finally found a way to vent their strong intellectual curiosity. Moreover, in the process of the rise of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, in the war with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, people of insight in the late Ming Dynasty realized that only by strengthening weapons and equipment could they "control the country", so they were enthusiastic about learning and introducing Western firearms, and in order to improve the performance of fire, they took the initiative to learn Western mathematics and technology. This kind of initiative is completely different from the passive introduction of weapons in the late Qing Dynasty.

It is the most precious thing for a nation to have such a strong curiosity, and it is even the fundamental reason why this nation has stood tall in the east of the world for thousands of years. Looking at the end of the Qing Dynasty, under the enslavement of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the fear and hostility of the Chinese in the face of new things such as foreigners, trains, and telegraphs, so that they foolishly refused, teaching people to wonder why they came here? This detail also clearly tells the world how much the quality of the Chinese has declined under the hundreds of years of slavery of the Manchu Qing Dynasty?

In the past, no one could tell him this answer, but now, Zhu Guoqiang already knows the answer.

However, none of this is going to happen now, at least in this world, where the Manchus have been driven far away, and just as people are breathing a sigh of relief at the defeat of the northern barbarians, the sudden news immediately caused a sensation in the Tongwen Museum in Dalian.

"The Rus' Kingdom has invaded the northern border region!"

Zhong Yunkuan, who was looking through the book, heard this, and his face showed joy.

"What, Rus' country, is it the Rus' country of Europa?"

"That's right, it's that Rus' country, I just came from the General's Palace, and the General asked if there was anyone in the Tongwen Pavilion who could speak Rus', and we had to find out how they got here and how many troops there were in the north."

"I will,"

Zhong Yunkuan hurriedly said.

"When I was in Guangzhou, I learned some Rus' from missionaries, and Father Luo, who is Polish, went to Rus'."

I actually met another person who knew that Pingde destroyed Russia, hey. You know the world so well, it makes me very helpless.

In addition to sighing in his heart, Zhu Guoqiang even had an idea that maybe he should send some people to really go abroad to have a look.

And not just through the descriptions of the missionaries. Although the missionaries already have a basic understanding of the world through their descriptions, in order to understand the world, and even conquer it in the future, someone must first go out.

Just like those Cossacks. They are the new force of Russia's conquest of the whole of Siberia, and it is precisely because of their adventures again and again that Russia has succeeded in ruling Siberia and turning Siberia into Russian territory.

If you want to conquer this world, you must understand the world, how many countries and civilizations there are in this world.

This is the true path to conquest.

And now Da Ming has not yet embarked on that road of conquest, and he has not even really understood the neighbors around him.

At this moment, Zhu Guoqiang's heart suddenly appeared with a sense of responsibility and a long way to go. He seemed to understand that such conquest was not something that could be achieved simply by the strength of the ship and the strength of the gun.

If you want to conquer this driver, the first thing you have to do is Daming himself. You must be ready to conquer the world.

The basis of this preparation is that the Ming Dynasty must have a clear understanding of the world, not just that. It is limited to those who open their eyes to the world......

"It seems that it will be necessary to strengthen education in the future."
