Li Hao, as an emperor, can only be in the deep palace, except for one-fifth of the year's foreign affairs visits and festival celebrations, which are generally only held in the annual meeting of the Senate and the imperial palace that leaves Shenjing in the re-election, in fact, as a technographer, he was singled out to be the emperor is also the request of the deep and traversal public, a mad scientist who does not have a little demand for power, and he spends most time every day in the basement of the main hall and the imperial garden to do biological and botanical research. Under the teaching and guidance of the traversal, Li Hao has discovered the laws of heredity that Mendel discovered only after hundreds of years, and discovered the method of detoxification of plant viruses and potatoes, but these can't actually be made public, because he is the emperor, the founding emperor, and can't engage in other careers, he can only do a secret self-refreshing research after acting as a mascot and a humanoid stamp.

A great deal of research notes and notes can only be left as a royal legacy for future generations to enjoy. However, Li Hao's cousin and cousin are not bad, although Li Hao's father died early, but the uncle in his 60s is still alive, and there are three cousins, and in the absence of children, these cousins also have the right to inherit the throne. The eldest brother Li Danian is nearly 40 years old, has three sons and one daughter, since the founding of the People's Republic of China after the title of Duke of Cheng'an, the student president of this medical school is arranged to be the president of Shenjing Hospital, and he is busy managing the hospital every day.

The second brother Li Sheng, as a high-achieving student who is also favored by the public, focuses on materials science and is tackling the transistor project of the Crystal Materials Research Institute, a secret experimental base. The results achieved are enormous, and the mass production process of germanium transistors has been realized. Received the gilded marquis title of descendant minus. Thirty-eight-year-old married and childless, it can be seen that it is indeed true that there is no love in the world of technology nerds.

The third Lear is only one year younger than Li Hao, but his surname is active, he won Wang Xinyu's appreciation in school, and accepted a lot of private work in private. Later, for the sake of family honor, he explored in the South Seas, and the title earned by his own ability has reached the hereditary duke. At the age of thirty-five, he was in the prime of life, exploring islands and new lands in the South Seas, and a journey of discovery that shook the world appeared on a chart worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

In November 1948, when the northern hemisphere was in the middle of winter, and the southern hemisphere was officially summer, Lear was vacationing on Abalone Island (Tasmania is famous for its abundance of abalone), which had established a supply port, and his expedition fleet of eighteen professional ships, large and small, was overhauling the harbor. Jean had to stop at the southernmost newly built port named Lobster Harbour (before crossing Devonport) on this latest seascape chart. The abundance of whales, lobsters, abalone and scallops has attracted a large number of fishermen to settle here, as well as the cheese and fruit industries. Every year, half a shipload of goods from merchant ships can be exchanged for a large number of valuable seafood and whale products, and a small amount of hardware products and building materials such as salt, sugar, spices and cement that are not produced locally can be exchanged for a full ship of whale oil, whale jerky, shrimp and crab and other seafood. Fishing and commerce flourished as a prerequisite for a population of 2,000 settlers, as well as for the supply and overhaul of ships.

Lear looked at the large area of the sea chart in his hand, the blank space in the south and the east, and wondered why Shen Kuo and the other gods did not let themselves wait for the expedition team to explore the area 2,000 kilometers away in the south, west, and east directions on the basis of Ilha Verde (Australia).

"First mate, you go and get our latest Earth Science book." Lear instructed his retinue, a sailor named First Mate, to go to the port to buy periodicals.

An hour later, after reading the journal, Lear couldn't help but ponder the theory of atmospheric circulation (atmospheric circulation is mainly manifested in the east-west wind belt on a global scale, the three-circle circulation (Hadley's circulation, Ferrer's circulation and polar circulation), the steadyly distributed average trough ridge, the upper-air jet stream, and the large disturbance in the westerly wind belt. Atmospheric circulation is not only an important mechanism for the exchange of physical quantities such as heat, moisture, angular momentum and energy exchange in the earth-atmosphere system, but also an important result of the transport, balance and conversion of these physical quantities. The non-uniform distribution of solar radiation on the Earth's surface is the driving force behind atmospheric circulation. At the heart of its theory is the latitudinal circulation, also known as the planetary wind system or pressure belt wind belt, which is driven by three convective circulations (tricycle circulation): the Hadri circulation (low latitudes), the Ferrer circulation (mid-latitudes), and the polar circulation. Sometimes the same circulation (e.g., low latitudes) can have several simultaneous currents at the same latitude (e.g., equator), randomly moving over time, merging with each other, and **. For the sake of simplicity, the same circulation is usually treated as a single circulation. This new theory shows that the atmosphere of the entire Earth's surface has a complex circulatory system, with different pressures and wind bands at different latitudes, and preliminarily explains the principle of monsoons and trade winds, and the exploration of the far north reaches the calculated Arctic Circle, confirming the existence of westerly and polar easterly winds in the theoretical model.

A large part of the southern hemisphere has been explored in the south, to the west, the latest news shows that the empire's fleet has reached a place named Cape Storm by the Royal Geographical Society in the southwest corner of Xuanzhou, to the east has explored the Majia Islands (Marquesas Islands), the easternmost point now discovered, and to the south it is limited to 2000 kilometers south of the southern tip of Qingzhou, and the world map is almost blank in the Antarctic Circle, and no one dares to disobey the imperial decrees now, Exploration of possible islands and land in a fictional Antarctic region with no indication of land. This may be to avoid unnecessary miscarriage and danger from being caught up in a strong westerly wind belt, with the Antarctic having the same ice caps as the Arctic even without continents. It would be unwise to waste time and energy on the polar alpine region, which has little value for development, but why are there restrictions on eastward navigation?

Half a year ago, a guy named Deng Jiaguang violated the ban and explored westward, confirming the speculation that there was no land for more than 6,000 kilometers from the westernmost port of West Qingzhou (Canafon Port) in Qingzhou, and the direct flight was terminated on the east coast of the small Xuanzhou Island (Madagascar Island) that was explored three years ago. The precedent of the entire southern part of the Indian Ocean, which had been painted pale blue in the sea, and the fact that not a single island had been discovered (the nearby islands of Reunion and Mauritius were discovered a year later) led to doubts about the exploration of the East.

"I don't believe that the map will be so symmetrical, 6,000 nautical miles from east to west of Qingzhou are sea surfaces, if there is an endless ocean, I can use my average speed of 400 kilometers a day to reach the storm corner along the westerly wind belt, a longitude of about 33 degrees south latitude is only 93 kilometers, and it is only 21,000 kilometers across more than 220 degrees of longitude, that is to say, it is only more than 50 days." Lear didn't care about the thousands of dollars in fines for violating the law. As a duke, do you still need that little money? In the speech of the first class of the teacher, the famous words full of atmosphere are still in the ears: "The journey of our generation is in the stars and the sea", since it is a journey, is it necessary to suffer from gains and losses?

After the fleet was overhauled, the Duke filled up the cans and fresh water directly from Lobster Harbor and sailed directly eastward, avoiding many ports on the eastern coast of Qingzhou, and the supplies on board were enough to support the fleet for 80 days. Exploration fleets that don't need to trade and sail along the coastline stop at ports along the route for supplies and trade, and in order to avoid trouble and leak plans, avoid any ports before reaching Cape Storm.

Blown by the strong westerly winds of the westerly winds, Lear's fleet reached Calamia Bay in New Zealand's South Island, and he was ecstatic to think that he had found a piece of the west coast of the continent that was in the empty space in the southeast on the map, which might be thousands of miles wide from east to west. This archipelago was marked on a chart published half a year later, and the name was to accumulate exploration merits and reach the standard of promotion to a third-class king. This area is not small, but the remote archipelago is classified as his property, according to the imperial aristocratic system, the super-grade princes are only the emperor's own brothers, and cousins can only be dukes at most. Naturally, an exception can be made for meritorious service, but the title is extremely difficult to choose, not a prince, nor a vassal king with an actual fief, and even the king of the county is difficult to give, so in the end I had to add a king to this place named the Lear Islands, and Lear also added a title of the king of Lear.

Looking at this King Lear Islands can only mean that it is just a coincidence.

By the time Lear was done with his work, his knighthood and a lot of procedural stuff, he was ready to continue his expedition eastward, and it was 1950. A message at the 10th anniversary ceremony stunned him. The imperial court announced the discovery of the Akaju Trout Peninsula (the Aleutian Islands and the Alaska Peninsula in the Americas) and the coastline of the West Coast of Chizhou, which stretched for thousands of miles.

Lear had to prepare to sail the globe in order to surpass this great feat of discovering the New World. From Sodgra Island, the westernmost territory of the Empire, sail south along the East African coast to Cape Storm, then northwest to the undiscovered east coast of Chizhou, south to the southernmost point along the east coast, and then north along the west coast to the southernmost narrow peninsula (the California Peninsula) on the west coast of Chizhou, which the Empire now discovers, and then sail directly west to return home.

If the southernmost tip of Chizhou is connected to the legendary Antarctic Ice Sheet, then it will have to go around the Antarctic Ice Sheet further east to the southern tip of the west coast of Chizhou. (To be continued.) )
