Finally to the point!

Li Yang hurriedly pointed to the globe and introduced: "Your Majesty, these paintings are indeed land, there are seven continents and four oceans on the whole earth, these seven pieces are land, these blue are the oceans, and these two ends are extremely cold places covered with ice and snow, called the South Pole and the North Pole." ”

Li Yang really wanted to know what Qin Shi Huang in history would think when he knew how big the world was.

Is it to govern Great Qin well, or is it a hegemonic spirit that wants to rule the world?

Li Yang knows that although the theory of "Kyushu" in China has a long history, the theory of Kyushu in ancient China refers to the Kyushu of Hebei, Yan, Qing, Xu, Yang, Jing, Henan, Liang, and Yong.

In fact, Kyushu was only the ideal of the pre-Qin people, and it was not until the generation of Qin Shi Huang that the unification of Kyushu was finally realized.

The term "Kyushu" mentioned above was quite popular in history, but from today's perspective, this Kyushu is only an understanding of the Chinese region. At that time, the people's understanding of the world was still very narrow, and they did not realize that the so-called world was only a part of the earth.

Although, Zou Yan, a representative of the Yin and Yang family, put forward the theory of Great Kyushu, pointing out that in addition to the small Kyushu, there is also a big Kyushu, and China is just a big state called "Chixian Shenzhou", and there are eight big states like China, and there are eight on the earth, which together add up to a total of Kyushu, which is called "Great Kyushu".

However, this doctrine did not become mainstream, and no one even believed it, because it is true that it was not until more than two thousand years after his death that it was not possible to determine how many continents there were on Earth.

Therefore, in fact, Zou Yan put forward the theory of the Great Kyushu, but he felt that the world was still very big, and it did not represent how many continents there were in the world, because in the theory of yin and yang, nine represents the largest number.

After Ying Zheng listened, he was really shocked, pointed to several continents on the earth, and exclaimed: "The world is so big!" Zou Yanzhi's theory of the great Kyushu now seems to be ...... Isn't that true? ”

Everyone was also surprised, for the ancients who still had a very narrow understanding of the world, this really made everyone feel a little unbelievable.

However, fortunately, during the Warring States Period, with Zou Yan's theory of the Great Kyushu as the basis, everyone can still accept it when they see the seven continents on the globe.

In order to further convince them that their globe is the real "world", Li Yang continued: "By the way, Your Majesty, please see, this is the Americas, the Americas are huge, and the ministers divide them into North America and South America. ”

"Oh? What did you say...... There are Chinese people there! ”

At this moment, not only Yingzheng was shocked, but the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were also stunned, and there was an uproar.

Meng Tian couldn't help but say: "Prime Minister Zhong, the beautiful state you are talking about is far away from my Great Qin, how can there be my Chinese descendants living there?" ”

Everyone nodded and looked at Li Yang curiously, obviously a little skeptical.

"It sounds incredible, but what I say is true!" Li Yang smiled, looked on the globe on the Bering Strait between Russia and the Americas, and said: "In the Shang Dynasty thousands of years ago, some Yin merchants passed through here to go to the American continent!" ”

At this time, Feng Quji said thoughtfully: "Prime Minister Zhong said this, and the prime minister has heard it, but he thinks it's just a legend. ”

Li Yang shook his head and said with a smile: "Feng Xiang, in fact, this is not a legend, but a truth. By the way, Xu Fu had just returned from there, where he met the descendants of Yin Shang. ”

"What? Xu Fu has been there! ”

Suddenly, everyone snorted again, and all eyes looked at him again.

Ying Zheng said excitedly: "Have you been to the United States? ”

Xu Fu hurriedly came out of the queue and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister traveled across the ocean and the world in search of immortal medicine, and he did go there last year, and he did see the Yin Shang tribe, known as the country of Shaohao." ”

"Huh? It turned out to be true! ”

Suddenly, everyone was surprised.

Ying Zheng was very curious, and hurriedly said: "You can quickly talk to me about this country of Shaohao!" ”

Everyone also looked at Xu Fu again, eager to hear what the world was like there.

Xu Fudao: "As the prime minister said, this world is vast and boundless, and the Meizhou where the minister went last year is a very vast continent. There were many ethnic tribes there, all of whom were Yin Shang tribes, who called themselves the country of Shaohao, and their kingdom was headed by a king, with a pyramid of power of high-ranking officials, priests and warriors, artisans, merchants, peasants, and slaves. A country is a city-state, temples and palaces have been built in the city, these buildings are very majestic, all of them are made of thousands of pounds of stone, the temple is tens of meters high, its scale is huge, the construction difficulty is high, it is amazing. ”

When everyone heard these introductions, they were extremely surprised, as if with Xu Fu's narration, their thoughts also drifted to the country of Shaohao.

After Xu Fu finished talking about the strength of Shaohao's country, he then changed his words, "However, Shaohao's country is only a thousand years old, although the country built with huge stones is very majestic, but compared with the strength of my Great Qin, it is a difference of 108,000 miles. ”

When Ying Zheng heard this, his face showed pride.

Xu Fudao: "They have no iron or bronze, and their weapons are all made of stone tools, which are very backward, and they have been fighting with other city-states all year round, so the situation is not optimistic. ”

Ying Zheng frowned slightly, and asked, "There are many enemies in the country of Shaohao?" ”

Xu Fu nodded: "There are hundreds of city-states there, and it is said that thousands of years ago, the descendants of Fuxi went there, so they attacked each other with the country of Shaohao all year round. ”

In ancient times, Fuxi referred to the same god of creation as Nuwa, the god of opening the heavens. Shao Hao is the son of the Yellow Emperor, the leader of the Chinese tribal alliance in ancient times, and the leader of the early Dongyi tribe.

Therefore, the country of Shaohao is the descendants of China, and the descendants of Fuxi do not necessarily represent the descendants of China, it represents a wider range.

That is, the humans in the Americas all passed through the Bering Strait from Asia, some between 5,000 and 10,000 years ago, and some in 1,300 B.C., but they did not consider them to be the same race.

At this time, Li Yang took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, listen to Xu Fu say that the country of Shaohao wants to have the intention of returning to the country and recognizing his ancestors." ”

Xu Fu also nodded hurriedly.

"Oh?"

Ying Zheng was pleasantly surprised, if the Chinese country in the Americas is willing to return to the country and recognize his ancestors, this is not only a supreme honor for Ying Zheng, but also a supreme glory for Daqin, and he is overjoyed at the moment: "If the country of Shaohao has the intention of recognizing their ancestors and returning to my Daqin, they are my subjects of Daqin, and I will protect them!" ”

Li Yang was overjoyed, it seemed that Yingzheng really had his heart in the world, and what he expected was to surrender from all over the world, so he hurriedly admonished: "Your Majesty Shengming, the minister suggested that a diplomatic office be added, which can be taken by Xu Fu to handle foreign affairs, diplomatic relations, and overseas development, and promote the prestige of my Great Qin in the world." ”
