Chapter 179: Crusaders

On the side of Yangping University, Song Huizong made a strong return, and his love for Keju was not covered. And after Ouyang's transformation, this football has basically become the rules of modern football. The appreciation, the intensity has increased greatly, and with the freshly produced thin-skinned football, he must come back.

He was very relieved to think about it, he knew that Zhao Yu also liked to bow. Kemari is a sport that is watched by the upper class. As the emperor, he doesn't have to worry about eating or drinking, and he can go wherever he wants. Compared to Zhao Yu, it is much cooler.

Yangping University was already on vacation, and those who did not take a holiday were also pulled by fishermen to work as coolies. Only among the Wujin warriors are still working hard. It's not a memorizing class, but a professor in a medical class who is working on some ways to deal with diseases at sea. This person is Yue Fei. The non-combat attrition that Ouyang said about the diseases at sea made him attach great importance to it, but Ouyang also talked about it, except for some diseases, he did not say a way to deal with it. Of course, Yue Fei didn't know that Ouyang's level was like that, and he didn't dare to disturb Ouyang, so he went to talk to a retired professor of imperial medicine in Yangping University about this.

It just so happened that this Tai Yi grew up by the sea, and he knew a little about the diseases of fishermen. The Imperial Doctor said a lot, but there was nothing he could do about a very fatal abdominal pain that was high in seafarers. The imperial doctor suggested that Yue Fei should still ask Ouyang, and Ouyang would know if he couldn't say it.

"This disease is called acute appendicitis, and in fact, it is also found on land." Ouyang didn't disappoint Yue Fei, although Yue Fei was a student, he was still very polite to Yue Fei. After the courtesy came in, he also looked at the tea: "There are mainly three causes." The food is full and ***, the summer is cold, and there are also inaccessible and parasites. It is a fact that there is a high incidence at sea. "In 1977, foreign scholars reported that acute appendicitis accounted for 81.6% of the cases of emergency surgery performed on first- and second-class warships. And in the history of the mid-eighties, there were at least two cases of acute appendicitis each time.

"Sir, how can I get help?"

"There is no cure at the moment, only prevention and luck." Ouyang said: "There are many days of sea sailing, and food is limited. Loose stools or dysentery are common and are the cause of the high incidence of this disease. Therefore, hygiene must keep up, especially not drinking raw water. As for gambling on luck, once there is such a patient, you must stay in bed, do not eat, and can only drink boiled cold water. If you are lucky, you can save the day, but if you are unlucky...... It can only be painful death. "It's not complicated to have surgery, but there are no anti-inflammatory drugs, and it's basically like drinking doves to quench your thirst.

"Yes!" It's a bit helpful, but it doesn't really work. Yue Fei had never seen the navy, but he had seen the army. The sanitary situation in the army is already very bad, not to mention the army at sea. Yue Fei said: "Don't eat enough, pay attention to hygiene." The student wrote it down. ”

"Yue Fei, what does it matter. There are two games today. ”

"As Mr. said, this naval battle is still a blank slate. If students work harder, they may be able to die fewer people in the future. ”

"Well, you go get busy." Ouyang remembered something: "Wait, I have a map for you here, it may not be very detailed, but at least there is an outline." But don't ask, don't reveal the map to anyone unless it's necessary, and don't mention me. "What map? A world map, of course. As for Yue Fei's worries that he couldn't fully digest...... Just let Yue Fei worry about himself.

Among several outstanding jinshi, although Yue Fei is young, he already has the demeanor of a general. As he said, war is only a matter of one day, or even an hour. The so-called raising soldiers for a thousand days is a time to use soldiers. It is necessary not only to be able to use soldiers, but also to be able to raise soldiers.

After Ouyang flew away, he continued to write a book, which meant that his ability was so much, and in another month or two, these people would officially go on board for internships, and it would be up to them whether they were alive or dead. And praised Yue Fei, saying that he was not only capable, but also loyal to the emperor, and recommended him as the chief general of the Hangzhou fleet. And comes with a crew position allocation.

Football matches are very exciting, a game is a few joys and a few sorrows. There are also many people who drink and fight. The top four are Tokyo, Liao, Jinguo, and Hangzhou teams. The level of the Liao people is counted in everyone's hearts, and there is still the ability to raise a team of outstanding talents from a country. And Jin Guo's style is fierce, in order to grab a ball, he can risk his life and let the opponent be afraid before fighting.

And at this time, the Hangzhou fleet of Yangping University continued to hold classes. Since the Hangzhou shipyard has greatly shortened the construction period, and the first batch of heavy artillery has also been transported to Hangzhou by water, the progress of the course here has become relatively tight.

The next explanation is the position. Ouyang Dao: "An indispensable position, captain. The commander of a ship can mobilize anyone on board to do anything, and the authority of the captain must be guaranteed. Second, look at the hand. Part-time flag bearer. Have good eyesight, be able to see the flags of allies, and be the quickest to spot enemies, islands, land, or storms. Thirdly, the deck officer, who is the commander of white-knuckle warfare, can board the enemy ship the fastest when attacking. Punctuality deters enemies. There are also sail specialists, gunners, helmsmen, and so on. Each ship must perform its own duties, and it is necessary to be cautious in changing positions. Because any part of the population is small, it may affect the combat effectiveness. The deck chief officer is brave and brave, and the lookout is highly technical. And the most demanding is the main general. The voyage is not a land march, the crew has mixed emotions, and being the captain of the ship is not a matter of subduing it with might, but it is not as simple as bowing to each other. Personnel is the most complicated and troublesome subject, and I can't teach you anything about it. What kind of character people lead what kind of army, you know for yourself. ”

Ouyang said again: "There must be a carpenter, and there must be at least one for each boat in Langzhong." The stewards of food must be upright. As for why, it may be clear to you in a year or two. Today's lesson is to draw charts with a compass. Ouyang took out a few things and said, "This is called a folding ruler, this is called a compass, and this is called a triangle board." In the next half month, you will have the most painful lessons. Because to draw these, you have to have a certain mathematical foundation. The biggest advantage of learning to draw nautical charts is that the ship is not easy to run aground, and it can provide accurate maritime information for future generations. It's not very demanding, at least you have to draw a map of the route of the Great Song Haijiang. Originally, this was done by a special measuring agency, but now it is not, and you can only afford it yourself in training. ”

Nautical charts are called the golden keys, and of course you can do without them, but the danger is much higher. Once in battle, there are no nautical charts, and you will not even be able to make out the direction. Ouyang didn't ask them to be very high, but only that they must understand the importance of this nautical chart. The nautical chart drawing project is huge, and it is not something that has been achieved in ten years.

After a hard battle, the Tokyo team finally won the championship of the 3rd I Love Tang Wine Cup Dasong Football Invitational Tournament. Soon after, after the assessment of Yangping University, eighty percent of the Wujin scholars will sail to Yangzhou to receive the ships, and there will also be appointed saints waiting for them. The remaining unqualified two percent, Zhao Yu means Ouyang retraining, Ouyang excused himself and felt unwell. So the imperial court asked these people to report on the various military routes. The specific champions and other rankings will be announced in Yangzhou.

Although the ball game is over and the university graduates are in session, Yangping is still prosperous as before. Only then did Ouyang realize the meaning of a sentence, the earth has never been able to leave anyone. Even hoorays.

After so many months, there are fewer matchmakers who come to the door. It was very quiet in the yamen. Ouyang either cruises with Song Huizong every day, or fishes, and is also very leisurely. It seems that everything has nothing to do with him here.

And at this time, the Northwest Military Road and the Western Khan of the Black Khan went to war.

Black Khan is divided into Eastern Khan and Western Khan. The Eastern Khan was pro-Song, while the Western Khan called himself Taohuashi Bogra Khan, which means Emperor of China. The Black Khan was a state founded in the 8th century after the Turks accepted Islam as their state religion. Xi Khan was naturally an enemy of the Great Song Dynasty, and he was an enemy's friend. And the Eastern Khan was the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and fully supported the Song army's offensive against the Western Khan.

And Ouyang didn't care when he heard the news, the Northwest Army is now very mature, and there are two famous generals leading it, and with the cooperation of the Eastern Khan, he will definitely not suffer a loss. But then he accidentally remembered one thing that shocked him, that is, this time was the time of the Crusades in Europe that had been engaged in for two centuries. The Silk Road went directly to Europe, and the Crusades were an extreme act of Catholicism against paganism, especially Islam, which could meet with the Silk Road and eventually collide with each other. The Great Song Dynasty is naturally a pagan religion, and at this time, is it a blessing or a curse to collide with large-scale extremist movements in Europe? Such a complex ethnic and religious relationship. In what manner did the Song army appear in front of the crusaders?

Then there is the question of whether you dare to say it, which is very serious and important. At the moment everything is going well, this out of the black sweat is Afghanistan (ancient translation of what, Western Regions?) Then came Persia, and then the war-stricken areas. In any case, Han Shizhong must be informed of this matter, and if he accidentally faces it in the future, he will also be mentally prepared. Thinking of this, Ouyang started to write a letter to Han Shizhong.

This letter was sent very secretly, and it was sent by Zhan Ming to find someone who was not eye-catching, but absolutely trustworthy, and it must be handed over to Han Shizhong himself. If this letter was exposed, Ouyang didn't know how to explain what he knew so far away. Moreover, it is taboo to exchange letters with Han Shizhong, and even if Ouyang has something, he will convey it through the Chamber of Commerce and do it above board.

Han Shizhong received the secret letter, and his heart was very strange. even thought of the possibility that Ouyang wanted to rebel against him. But when he opened the letter, he was confused and couldn't understand it. Ouyang's letter was too detailed and complicated. Let Han Shizhong, who doesn't know anything about this, go crazy. After studying it all night, I finally understood the general meaning.

The first part of Ouyang expounds on the Catholic and Orthodox Churches of this era, and explains the status of the pope in Europe. The fanaticism of the people and the state for religion. The second part explains the views of the infidels, mainly Islam and the Orthodox Church, in the Catholic countries, and the main reasons for their contradictions. The third part analyses the characteristics and characteristics of Islam, as well as some of its objectives. The fourth part explains the possible combat power of European countries, as well as some common means of attack and defense in European countries. The fifth part provides a certain degree of analysis of the national character of Europeans.

These five parts can be seen in the fog of Han Shizhong, but fortunately there is a sixth part, a small description of the Crusades, mainly mentioning that once they reach Persian territory, the caravan may be involved in a fringe war. Once out of Persia, it may enter the center of the war. Ouyang asked Han Shizhong to decide for himself whether to send troops in the black sweat, and whether to retreat or fight in the event of war. Or change the Silk Road to avoid war.

Han Shizhong didn't dare to hide it, and immediately reported it to the imperial court the next day. It is said that the military has been working in Afghanistan to explore. Zhao Yu held a meeting with the Military Aircraft Department, and it was certain that even after the defeat of the army, the crusaders would not dare to go deep into the Song realm. So I issued a strategy: people don't offend me, I don't offend people. The Northwest Military Road must be responsible for the safety of the caravan, and the purpose is that the Song will not take the initiative to participate in the war of any side, and if it does not fight, it will be won. Let Han Shizhong carefully handle the contradictions of all parties, neither do you fall into the truth, nor can you damage the national system. Death order is that the Silk Road must be opened.

The Eastern Han Silk Road has led to Rome. It connects the two ancient civilizations of India and Greece. According to history, it takes about a year to go back and forth, but the value of the goods to and from it has increased by a thousand times. Of course, this money is one thing, and the most important thing for the court is face. During the Zhenguan period, it is recorded that more than 10,000 Hu merchants settled in Chang'an and became Tang people, saying that the Wanguo Dynasty was exaggerated and boasted, but it was not unfounded. The Silk Road, on the other hand, weakened from the middle of the Tang Dynasty due to frequent wars. In the Song Dynasty, even the silk portal of Black Khan, which had the Central Plains army, was blocked by the Western Xia people. Zhao Yu can't be without ambition. In particular, compared with the combat effectiveness forwarded by Han Shizhong, the Song army surpassed the Catholics and the Islamists in terms of logistics and combat effectiveness, as well as advanced weapons. There is also a huge productivity as the backing support, and no one will be afraid.

According to this information, the imperial court carried out a big move, recruiting 200,000 forbidden troops and 30,000 horses for the Northwest Military Road, and all the grain in Shagua Prefecture was no longer sold back to the Great Song Dynasty, but purchased by the imperial court and directly used as military rations. The Hexi Corridor Horse Breeding Land is exclusively for the use of the Northwest Military Road.

This news is a few happy and a few worried, and Li Qianshun of Western Xia was frightened by the Song Dynasty's means of approaching the enemy, and immediately sent an envoy to ask. I didn't think that this news was only known to Han Liu from the Military Aircraft Department and the Northwest Military Road, and it was confidential, so I asked for a long time, but I didn't get any news. Seeing this, the Tangut people were even more sure that the Song army would break the alliance and attack the Tangut. Instead, production was stopped again, and all efforts were made to build cities and dig ditches to prepare for war, so that the national strength was even weaker.

And joy is that Ouyang is a good profiteer. The reason why it is said that profiteers are good is that the starting point is good. The grain produced in the two states of Shagua this year was sold in the Great Song Dynasty, and the price of grain in the Great Song Dynasty plummeted by 40%. The peasants were miserable. Ouyang took the lead in calling on all chambers of commerce to purchase grain. Guangyang Pingyi County is full of 30 warehouses. It took only half a month for the purchase to raise the price of grain to its original price. Now, as soon as the imperial court makes a move, the price of grain has skyrocketed by three percent in a panic. Ouyang sold it and sold the grain depot. In just a few months, because of good deeds, the profits obtained are really terrifying.

When Zhao Yu heard about this, he always suspected that the fine work that had lurked in Afghanistan was sent by Ouyang and these people. Of course, she won't ask Han Shizhong, she doesn't doubt people, but don't use suspicious people.

The Northwest Military Road is huge, and Li Gang began to focus on managing logistics and internal affairs, and of course Han Shizhong took the post of Jiedu envoy, and the military general was the Jiedu envoy, which means that this place is beginning to actively prepare for war. And such a means unexpectedly brought the Western Khan, who was about to resist resolutely, into submission. After consulting with the Eastern Khan, a Song road was opened between the two countries, and four cities were provided for the Song army to amass. And the Song army was also polite, and once the Western Khan gave in, they set up a trading city to let the three parties trade in one place. Han Shizhong was a little hesitant, everything is in place, this Ouyang will not be shaking himself. In case nothing happens after going out, how can I explain myself for such a big scene.

In this matter, Zhao Yu saw the benefits of force, and when he raised his own troops, the Western Khan surrendered. It has deepened its understanding of force. I better understand Ouyang's sentence: A weak country has no diplomacy.

Tossing and turning, it can't be tossed on Ouyang's head anyway. Ouyang is still living a peaceful life in Yangping. Zhao Yu didn't bother him for half a year. Ouyang went to class when he had nothing to do, and now that people were becoming more and more professional, Ouyang didn't dare to show his clumsiness, and began to explain basic mathematics, chemistry, physics, etc. Later, I learned that this mathematician had already existed in China, so he concentrated on teaching chemistry and physics. Chemistry had no basic items to teach, so I finally decided to teach physics. What principle of conservation of physics, what gravitational force, what steam engine, there is nothing he dare not come up with, only what he can't think of.

Then Ouyang became the first erudite person in the Great Song Dynasty among the people. It is said that half of the things in heaven are known, and all the things on earth are known.

Over the past year, the biggest change in the surrounding countries is that Jinliao has been destroyed. Liaojin refugees or deserters began to pour into the Great Song Dynasty by land and sea. However, due to the fact that the imperial court wanted to avoid the deterioration of relations with Jin Liao, these refugees were not allowed to settle down. But some black-hearted owners began to hire these people to do the most tiring work and get the lowest pay. Although there was a table on the imperial history platform and the reaction of the people, the two major chambers of commerce and the imperial court turned a blind eye to this situation.

There is a poem: The human face does not know where to go, and the peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze. Although this year's New Year's Festival is missing Liang Hongyu and two maids, there are more Wang Baofu and Zhou Ping. Huilan and others also knocked on the side, saying that in the coming year, Ouyang Xiang will definitely be listed as one of the top ten outstanding good wives and mothers of the Great Song Dynasty. Ouyang laughed and said that they were too ink.

At this time, Ouyang still had a holy decree in his arms, because fifty percent of the warships had been delivered, and the construction of the military wharf had been completed, the imperial court appointed Ouyang as the Hangzhou military road patrol envoy. Everyone is no stranger to this matter, although Ouyang is still the magistrate, but even the ministers know that Ouyang is not a big official, but his power is not small. The most important thing is that everyone above knows that Yangping is rich and stable, and the Great Song Dynasty can also be rich and stable. What will happen if Ouyang is dismissed, the gains outweigh the losses, so it is better to let Ouyang take care of both. According to the insiders, Ouyang Shadow has actually appeared in the court.

The patrol envoys are different from the road inspection envoys, although they belong to the supervision agencies set up to avoid excessive power to pacify the road appeasement, but the patrol is not permanent, and is temporarily appointed by the central government, although the official position is not large, but the authority is very large.

The inspection envoy did not take a few officials on the road, the Imperial Historical Observatory would send people to follow, and the historians, Shangshu Province, Zhongshu Province and other institutions had sent personnel. There are also people in the household department and the official department. Since it was a military route, the Privy Council and the Ministry of War also sent people. In general, it is an inspection team sent by the central government, maybe these people are not fart in Beijing, but when they get to the place, the weight is large.
