First of all, the strait has already been discovered; Secondly, the Jitu Huns, who have been preparing for nearly two years, are going to run.

The importance of the strait has been said too many times, and a new round of ocean exploration in the Empire must begin, and a reasonable set of latitudes must be worked out before that. Now there are very few people who understand what latitude is, except for Lu Zhe and Lu Yi, who have such a Ding Ding concept, it seems that only Lu Qi can play it.

There are people in various colleges who are studying latitude, and several professors seem to have studied a little clue, but ...... I won't know anything better than Lu Qi.

Lu Qi will soon receive a letter from his father, in which he will ask him to go to Nanyang and cooperate with the Nanyang Navy to formulate a set of latitudes belonging to the empire.

Before doing those things, the concept of the earth needs to be warmed up first, and only by making sure that the foot is an oval sphere, not a round place, can the rest of the things be done.

In fact, it is quite inexplicable, when the moon is full, looking up at the sky at night or during the day, how can you see that the moon is a round celestial body, so the theory about the round sky and the place appeared. No one has thought a little deeper, the moon is round, why can't the earth under our feet be round?

In recent years, the glass industry in the empire has developed rapidly, and although glass of various colors still accounts for the majority, the process of making colorless transparent glass has not been explored. What kind of contribution will a mature glass industry play? There is a truth in this sentence about the fact that glass is the basis of all chemistry, and it is only because of the appearance of the scale dishes of glass products that the dosage of some medicines can be carried out more professionally, and it is also convenient for the most professional observation.

Glass can not only help in chemical experiments, but also in astronomy. The first astronomical telescopes appeared in the ninth year of the imperial calendar, and may not be all that professional, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with observing the moon.

Those who have used astronomical telescopes to observe the moon, they were stupid when they first looked at the surface of the moon up close, there is no so-called heavenly palace on the moon, there are only craters with pits, and then there are no rabbits on the moon, and there is no laurel tree that will grow no matter how you cut it, since there are no trees, it is even more impossible to have Wu Gang.

Tiangong, Rabbit, Guishu, and Wu Gang all don't have them, and they don't look like they have green plants. Even if there is Chang'e, then where Chang'e lives and what Chang'e eats to live, a series of questions are worth thinking about. After thinking about it, a large group of people whose inherent values collapsed appeared, crying and making trouble, and could only sing "I shed tears of happiness for you, in my heart you will always be the most beautiful".

The Moon has repeatedly been confirmed to be a round sphere...... Not! The correct name is celestial body, so why won't people fall, at this time the opportunity to pretend to be B has come, but Lu Zhe has passed the age of stealing the limelight, so it is Lu Yi who makes his debut, what is gravity, if there is no apple, use oranges instead, okay, "Lu Yi's gravity" appeared!

Proving that there is a celestial body under your feet is naturally not simply done with one or two experiments, and then it should be a classic scene, isn't it to confirm the theory on the ocean? For example, if you are on the sea, why do two ships see each other first with the mast? What? This explanation is not clear, there are waves on the sea? Then wait! The Empire plans to build a navy, and in a dozen or twenty years, the Empire's fleet will make a super voyage to see if it can go around the earth or something.

"The latitude is, of course, with Nanling as the core as the starting point." Lu Zhe's face was lazy, they set off again, and on the way into Guanzhong, they met the eldest son who left Guanzhong. He asked, "How many people did you bring this time?" ”

Lu Qizai nodded silently, the education he received, the starting point of latitude was originally from Nanling, there was nothing to say, just copy it. When asked about it, he replied, "Teachers from each college have signed up, and they bring students from their own college. The preliminary number was five hundred and twenty-seven. ”

The current Taixue of the empire is actually not much, there is one in the capital of each county, and the highest and best level is of course Nanling, which was the only capital before.

Lu Zhe was still very impressed by how many students there were in the empire, and he would not be mistaken, it was five thousand seven hundred and four. When he heard this, he was stunned: "What do you mean?" Almost 1 in 10 students will go to Nanyang??? ”

There's no way! Although it is universal education, how many years has it been? The population of the country is close to 70 million, and there are 5,704 students, which is really quite good.

The imperial Taixue is not an institution such as "Guozijian" in the traditional sense, and it is not simply poetry and poetry that you want to study, but also physics and chemistry. That's to train people who really mean something for the "future" of the empire, not to raise a bunch of waste who can't even recognize grains except for poetry and songs.

Of course, a country cannot do without its own cultural heritage, and poetry and poetry cannot be completely abandoned. But! It's just that don't raise a group of idiots who can only write poems and songs, can't recognize grains and grains clearly, and look forward to being officials.

"It's a bit much...... Lu Qi didn't know how to convince his father, he just thought that it wouldn't be a bad thing to let those elites see more different landscapes, understand how big the world is, and see the world more. He opened his mouth and said two words: "Father, the emperor ......", Lu Zhe spoke.

"If it doesn't affect the main study, you can go if you want." Lu Zhe himself is very much in favor of letting students see the world more, or he will not interfere in various colleges and let the holiday organization go around. He said: "Well, since there are already more than 500 of them, let's just make them bigger." Let each college encourage students to go together. After a pause, he said to Luo Shao: "The Taiwei Office has formulated a proper way, and I have also ordered the General's Mansion to cooperate." ”

What can Luo Shao say? He just stood up and saluted respectfully, and "obeyed" in response.

After dealing with those little things, Lu Zhe waved his hand and asked Lu Qi to do what he wanted. Then, he looked at Luo Shao with a smile and said, "Ji Tuo is still very smart and knows how to back down. ”

The Xiongnu and Donghu have been tug-of-war around Wolf Juxu Mountain for nearly two years, and the war between the two sides cannot be said to be so fierce, that is, it is a little too used in "chemistry ~ learning ~ martial arts".

Cattle and sheep are slaughtered, and the carcasses are thrown into stagnant ditches to allow the rotting carcasses to grow germs. In fact, in many cases, it is not only cattle and sheep, but it is also very normal to throw the corpses of the soldiers killed by the other side into the water.

Nomads are not new to the business of manufacturing ~ learning ~ martial arts ~ weapons in recent years, and their ancestors have been doing this for space for time when they can't beat others.

The grassland is very large and large, and it is not easy to get water, and people can go about a week without eating, but if they don't get a drop of water for three days, they should stand up. One or two people, or less than 100 people, consume water. However, once there are more than 1,000 people, the consumption of water is definitely far greater than imagined, not to mention the drinking water problem of tens of thousands of people and accompanying war horses.

Jituo Xiongnu and Donghu both sacrificed big killing weapons to play biological warfare, and that was one of their clever things.

Since you can't get water, it's not possible to play a large-scale battle!

Jitu Xiongnu has enough reasons to give an account to the empire, is it possible that the empire wants the Xiongnu to die without a water source? The empire really forced it once or twice, and as a result, a group of Huns jumped back and were slaughtered, and more chose to run to Jitu to cry, and Jitu ran to Jibu to cry. Considering that there will be some scenes in the future, such as acting as a pioneer or something, the empire has to stop a little.

The Donghu people were not so willing to fight the Huns, and they were more interested in taking advantage. In addition, even if Donghu Naoren is relatively small, how can he find one thing from a series of actions of the empire, that is, the empire is already sharpening its knife and planning to attack Donghu.

The empire's call for Donghu to attack has been shouting for four or five years, and there have been similar calls since the previous conquest of the grassland was taken advantage of by Donghu, but at that time, the focus of the empire was on the Xiongnu, so it did not clean up the Donghu people. Now, the empire's war in northern Xinjiang has stabilized, and the empire is not a country that does not have revenge, and it seems that because of the militarist education problem, it wants to destroy the whole clan if it provokes a little, and it is time to make a move against Donghu after enduring it for so long.

"The plan we have made is to wage war against the Donghu people from two directions." Luo Shao immediately stepped down, he stopped here, thought for a while, and asked, "Your Majesty, is it ...... Wait for Jibu to come over, and then talk in detail? ”

That's right, the next lieutenant chosen by Lu Zhe is Ji Bu. If nothing happens, Jibu will be in the post of lieutenant for at least one term, that is, four years, and then it will be time to find a place for him to become governor after he leaves office.

A governor's palace was set up on the Japanese Islands, the northwestern counties were governor's provinces, and there was another capital protectorate in the Western Regions, where should it be next? Perhaps it would be a good choice to establish an oceanic protectorate in the South Seas, including islands such as Luzon, which is also not a small territory.

What Lu Zhe is more distressed about now is that the Xungui group saw that the Qin Kingdom and the Wei Kingdom, the two brothers had many problems and difficulties on the way to the place, and they were more repulsive about going out to find a place as a fief, so that except for a very small number of people who were willing to go out to open up the fiefdom, the vast majority of them chose to stay in the mainland.

The constraints on the Xungui group to stay in the homeland are quite large, and the status of the title is basically fixed, and the private army is even more pitiful, just to act as a façade. In addition, their fiefdom only has the right to collect taxes, and they don't even have the right to govern, isn't this kind of life too dull? I wonder if there will be some idle nobles who seek excitement and make some bad things that require the Wehrmacht to play the game of repression.

"Actually, how nice it is to go outside!" Lu Zhe couldn't hide his depression and said: "What is developed, given to the part that the empire should have, can have huge benefits, and can also be powerful and blessed by those savages, how chic and enjoyable life should be." ”

Luo Shao was also depressed, he thought to himself: "It's stupid to choose to have a good life, but go to those wild places to compete with snakes, ants, mosquitoes, and insects, and go to the company of those wild people who look like monkeys." ”

There is no way to oppress the good or anything inside the empire, and there are many constraints, but the empire itself and the outside are almost two worlds.

The empire has running water facilities, and there are toilets in the last toilet, is there one outside? Who can bear to carry water every day and drink the kind of water that tastes like a mouthful of stagnant water in a tank? The most unbearable thing is that you can sit comfortably on the toilet and "vent" freely, why do you want to squat in the grass and don't know if you will be bitten by something?

The empire has developed transportation, where do you want to go today, call the butler to prepare the carriage and horses, bring his wife, son and daughter, and some guards and attendants, shake the majesty of the family coat of arms in the envious eyes of the roadside, go to eat some sumptuous food, watch the play and listen to the music. What is life? This is called life!

There is an even more incomparable advantage in the empire is that everything is done according to the rules, as long as the rules are not broken, whose grandfather is qualified to stand as a sculpture in Miyagi Square, whose old man has been written into the textbook as a national hero, the royal family eats meat, the Xungui group eats deboned meat, the officials, the big clans, and the gentry gnaw bones, and the people drink and drink soup, is the small day beautiful? Did you still have these treatments when you went outside? In addition to being able to get the limited support of the empire, there is nothing left, and you have to bear the pressure of survival that you don't know if you can bear, and you are purely looking for guilt!

Well, every nation cannot lack national heroes, but usually they are called heroes when they are dead, and they are called bears when they are alive. That's the fear that the hero's prestige will be too high, and he is afraid that there will be a response or something, and he will not be happy for the monarch or himself. Imperial...... Well, it's different today's emperors, and they don't seem to worry about the risks of living heroes at all, and the result is that a large number of people who follow the emperor's rise to the end of the world, including those who have really done something for the nation, whether they are dead or alive, from small soldiers to nobles, there are so many heroes.

Lu Zhe suddenly asked, "Where is Liu Bang?" ”

Luo was stunned for a moment, and replied: "It seems to be ......", he has been busy learning about the affairs of the Western Regions recently, and he has no time to take care of other things, so he was suddenly asked.

Lu Zhe didn't really want to know where Liu Bang was, he remembered that Liu Bang was very eager to go outside to create his own foundation. He looked at the scenery in Guanzhong and said, "Waiting for their envoy to return, I will fulfill my promise and let Liu Bang go to the South Asian subcontinent to establish his own fiefdom." I suddenly found that there were too few self-motivated people in the noble class! ”

Luo Shao lowered his head, and couldn't help but be depressed in his heart: "It's just you, I hope the noble class will be more self-motivated." In other words, other emperors, who do not suppress the self-motivation of the noble class! (To be continued.) )
