"Your Majesty, I heard that you plan to let Amin and Du Du lead the Eight Banners of Loyalty and Righteousness to escort the Chechen Khan and them back to Mobei?" After Sun Chuanting reported to the emperor on the work of the General Staff, he couldn't help but ask the emperor to verify a rumor he had heard. Mobile M.

After finishing a period of work, he picked up the little milk dog that had been spinning at his feet, and Zhu Youzhen, who wanted to relax, replied casually while stroking the puppy that had quieted down in his arms: "Yes, but it's not all of the eight flags, it's two yellow flags, four flags with blue flags and four flags with white flags."

After they escorted the Chechen Khan back, they would stay in Mobei for a period of time, organize and set up banners for the Khalkha tribes, and establish a city in the place where Lin Dan Khan was defeated by the Houjin, as the heart city of the Ming Dynasty's domination of the Trans-Khalkha tribes, I have already named the city Ulaanbaatar.

Ulaanbaatar is called the Red Hero in Mongolian, and I thought that using this city to commemorate Lin Dan Khan should be enough to confirm the ruling order of Southern Mongolia over Northern Mongolia..."

After listening to the emperor's explanation patiently, Sun Chuanting hurriedly said: "The minister is not an opposition to go to Mobei to receive the surrender of the Outer Khalkha tribes, but the minister is opposed to using Amin and the Eight Banners of Loyalty to do this.

After all, Amin and the Eight Banners of Zhongyi were only prisoners who surrendered to our dynasty due to the situation, and it would not hurt to use them under the supervision of our army, but to put them outside to form a town of their own, the minister was worried that this was a move to raise tigers.

In particular, Amin was originally one of the four Baylors of Houjin, and his people have always had the heart of a deer, and once he is out of our control, he may not have the intention of self-reliance. ”

After Zhu You listened, he immediately raised the puppy in his arms and asked Sun Chuanting: "Can Sun Qing recognize what kind of dog is this in my hand?" ”

If it weren't for the emperor's unintentional purpose, Sun Chuanting would have thought that the emperor was teasing himself, he barely recognized the puppy that was wagging its tail at him, and then shook his head and said: "This should be the dog used by the northern polar natives to pull sleds and graze reindeer, the General Staff saw that its survivability in the northern snow fields was very strong, and originally wanted to use it as a military dog, but later found that this kind of dog was too timid, and when he saw the enemy, he didn't call the police, didn't attack, didn't say, it was the soldiers who fought with the enemy, and they didn't dare to help, Therefore, it has been eliminated by the army. ”

Although Sun Chuanting was disdainful of his little Erha, Zhu Youzhen was holding a Siberian Husky with light blue eyes and dreamy fur - commonly known as Erha, Zhu Youzhen knew that the other party did not know the benefits of Erha.

Therefore, he hugged the puppy in his arms again, and then said with interest: "Yes, what Sun Qing said is right." But does Sun Qing know why this dog's personality has become so tame? ”

Sun Chuanting was a little confused about the emperor's question for a while, but he still hesitated and replied: "This is probably out of nature." ”

Zhu Youzhen stroked the puppy in his arms, shook his head and said: "This kind of dog is formed with polar wolves*, if it really has the so-called nature, it is also wolf nature."

The reason why they became as docile and timid as they are today is that when the local natives domesticated this dog for generations, any dog that attacked its owner would be killed in front of the dogs.

In this way, after generations of selection, the bloodline of this dog that is biased towards wolf nature is finally extinct, and the rest is the bloodline of this kind of tame and timid who has become a human helper.

The Eight Banners of Loyalty and Righteousness have the same effect in my eyes as this dog. The reason why Daming is willing to raise such an army is naturally to serve my Daming.

Now the Eight Banners of Loyalty and Righteousness have reached 125 cattle records and 7,500 people. We've been training them for so long, we have to let them out to test, are they my Ming dogs? Or a group of white-eyed wolves?

If we always put the Eight Banners of Loyalty and Righteousness under our noses, how can we test what the true heart of these people is? I gave them a chance this time, but also to give us a chance to see this army clearly, does Sun Qing understand? ”

Sun Chuanting was stunned suddenly, he had never thought about it in this regard, although he had always been wary of this army, but he still regarded this army as a part of the Ming Dynasty, so naturally he would not easily test them like the emperor.

Zhu Youzhen put the puppy in his hand down on the ground, patted his coat, and then continued: "The Mobei grassland has always been a bitter cold place, and only the Jurchens and Mongols from the Eight Banners of Zhongyi can endure the climate there. Our Ming soldiers rashly stationed in Mobei, first, may not be able to gain a foothold in the local area; The second is that it is easy to be underestimated by the Trans-Khalkha tribes, which leads to repeated attempts to surrender to the Trans-Khalkha tribes.

Amin, Du Du and Huang Taiji are already close to each other, and even if they have the heart to stand on their own, it will be difficult for them to work together in a short period of time. The land of Mobei is now facing the trend of being attacked from the east and west, and the Oirat Mongols in the west and the Houjin in the east are not easy people, and it is difficult for non-famous ministers to gain a foothold in this place.

I looked around at the generals in the country, so far there is no one like Amin and Du Du, who understand both the Mongols and the Jurchens, if they are allowed to go to Mobei, it is difficult to say that it is not harmful to others and themselves.

Instead of worrying about the loyalty of Amin and the Eight Banners of Zhongyi, the General Staff should consider from the system, how to ensure the loyalty of the soldiers of the Eight Banners of Zhongyi to the Ming Dynasty, and plan the construction plan of Ulaanbaatar and the road construction between Erenhot and Ulaanbaatar earlier, so that Mobei Mongolia can return to my Ming Dynasty earlier.

I've always believed that there is no such thing as loyalty without a reason in this life. People are either loyal to their interests or loyal to their beliefs. For example, the Han people in Liaodong can be loyal to Huang Taiji, so the Jurchens can naturally be loyal to my Ming Dynasty.

And what the General Staff needs to do is to design a system that makes the army loyal to the country, instead of worrying about this and that all day long. In that case, we'll soon run out of people to use..."

Regarding the emperor's words, Sun Chuanting, who left the Xiyuan Retreat, fell into contemplation all the way. After Zhu Youzhen in the fine house relaxed for a while, he began to continue to deal with the stacked pieces on the desk like a hill.

However, after reading a few copies in a row, he looked up at Lu Qi with some surprise and asked, "What happened at Yenching University recently?" How can so many people criticize Galileo and his disciples? ”

Lu Qi blinked his eyes, then thought of something and said, "Ao, reply to Your Majesty." The latest incident at Yenching University is about a dispute between Professor Galileo and his disciples and the Jesuit missionaries and some professors at Yenching University over the way they teach. ”

Zhu Youzhen put down his hand and asked, "What is the issue of their dispute?" ”

Lu Qi thought about it for a long time before repeating it intermittently: "The Jesuit missionaries and some professors believe that Professor Galileo and his disciples do not teach the contents of the books and the correct conclusions that have been reached by their predecessors, but instead encourage the students to guess and experiment on their own... This is a waste of time and money, and it is a misguided teaching. And it is easy for these students to lose their reverence for the teacher and do some deviant behavior.

Professor Galileo, on the other hand, believes that even if the contents of the book are reversed from the conclusions of their predecessors, it does not mean that the students have acquired this knowledge, but only that the words of the book have become the words in the minds of the students, and at best they can only call these students two-legged bookcases, not intellectuals who can think independently.

He also believes that what students learn at university should not be fixed words, but how to find new knowledge. Only when students master the method of finding new knowledge, then students can use the methods they have mastered to acquire new knowledge after leaving the university, instead of leaving the university and becoming useless people who are eliminated by the times.

The new theories of the contemporary natural sciences are all developed by questioning the foundations of their predecessors. Good geocentrism and heliocentrism say that if we do not question the scientific spirit of our predecessors, then we cannot find that the earth revolves around the sun, and then natural science cannot continue to advance..."

"No wonder these officials would criticize him with such indignation." Zhu Youzhen's heart suddenly came to his senses. Like the decadent and old-fashioned Holy See, there are also some old-fashioned and stubborn conservatives in the country. They often put the phrase "the sky does not change, and the Tao does not change" on their lips, and regard the words of Confucius and Mencius as a guideline.

Galileo's remarks pricked the nerves of the Holy See in the West, and they also pricked the nerves of these conservatives in the East, so that these conservative officials and Jesuit missionaries could unite against Galileo. Funnily enough, not long ago, the two sides were still in a position to exist.

Zhu Youzhen lowered his head and thought for a while, then said to Lu Qi: "Arrange for me, I will go to Yenching University in three days to see the status of the completion of the new campus..."

Three days later, Zhu Youzhen, accompanied by Education Minister Li Tianjing, visited the new campus of Yenching University, and when he ascended the throne, he was the prime minister of the country, and the current area of Yenching University is four times the area of the original Guozijian. The Confucian Temple, adjacent to Guozijian, has now become a unit within Yenching University.

After several expansions, Yenching University covers an area of more than 150 acres, and in addition to the teaching areas of each college and the connected cement road, the campus is full of green trees, lawns, flower beds and sports venues.

After visiting the new campus of Yenching University, Zhu Youzhen gave a speech to more than 3,000 teachers and students in the newly completed playground of the university.

“… Therefore, I hope that you will pay attention to the fact that academic disputes should start from academics and end with academics, and must not turn academic disputes into gateway disputes. During the Apocalypse, the party dispute caused by the view of the gate in the imperial court, I thought that whether it was me, officials, or you students, we should learn from it...

I have always believed that academic debates should be about the pursuit of truth and not about attacking dissidents. I don't want to ruin people because of my words, so don't do anything that you say because of people.

Because the future of the kingdom belongs to us as well as to you, and in the final analysis, it belongs to yours after all. The future of the country is a bright society for everyone and for me; It's still a selfish society where everyone sweeps the snow in front of their own door. It doesn't depend on me and the ruling princes, but on what kind of country you intend to build..."
