"You say, if we adapt all of Seris's scripts into a play, will it have a good effect?" On the way, Guo Kang proposed to Li Xuanying: "I haven't thought about this problem before, but you see, the allusion to 'Jiuquan' just now is obviously very popular." ”

"And, as you told me, stories like Zhuge Liang would be very popular even in Greece. Since we have so many familiar subjects, we can use them entirely. ”

"That's true." Li Xuanying thought for a while and said, "In the past, everyone didn't pay much attention to this aspect, so they all took Seris's books and threw them directly to the students. In fact, scripts and dramas are the easiest to spread. ”

"In the past, it was a special situation, and adults were busy fighting for months, and it was normal not to pay attention to it." Guo Kang said: "Now that I am idle, I think I still need to pay attention to it." ”

"Old Ivan's circus went to the barracks to perform, and the soldiers ran every day to watch. It's already a place where training is stricter, and you can imagine how little entertainment other people have. ”

"Now that we have some money, we should make up for it." He judged: "Since there is this demand, no matter what we do, everyone will always take the initiative to find a way to entertain." Instead of making them drink and prostitute, it is better to offer something else. ”

"They can't replace each other." Li Xuanying said.

"You don't need to replace it completely, you can squeeze a little bit is a little bit." Guo Kang said: "Even if it is just a little improvement, it will be a big profit for us." ”

"Is it that serious? Is it worth thinking about it so seriously? Li Xuanying felt that he was making a big fuss.

"That's too serious." Guo Kang nodded.

The dangers of alcoholism, everyone has seen too much, and the Purple Horde itself has a great Khan who drank to death. And if we look at the various khanates of the Mongol system, people who died of alcoholism abounded. The problems caused by drinking and accidents are also more numerous. It can be said that this is already a landmark problem.

However, although it is impossible to eliminate it, it is still possible to manage it.

After the Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Shang Dynasty, Zhou Gong, the ancestor of Zhou Li, personally formulated the "Wine Decree" that clearly restricted drinking. The reason is that the Shang Dynasty people were very fond of drinking, which caused a series of serious problems.

Even the Shang Dynasty people liked to drink wine for the same reason as the Romans, because they liked the taste produced after the leaded bronze ware was loaded. With this kind of experience and ready-made etiquette requirements, at least for the upper echelons, there is a reason to meddle in management.

Another issue, which may be less noticeable, may have more uncontrollable effects in the future.

According to Serisian tradition, women should not be brought into the barracks. It's just that even in the Qin and Han dynasties, where military discipline was strict, this rule may not always be strictly observed. As for in Europe...... People don't have this awareness at all.

In addition to combatants, the armies of various countries in this era generally had many merchants and civilians accompanying them. Due to the lack of a dedicated logistics system, the military must rely on these contractors and employees for all kinds of supplies, maintenance and other tasks. Among them, there are a large number of prostitutes, or other people who are part-time prostitutes.

Since the army always dragged a long tail, the ability to maneuver can also be imagined.

The Europeans were always surprised that the Purple Horde was marching too fast, and that nomadism might be at play. But Guo Kang felt that it was just that they were too slow - in the world before him, the Europeans were just as fussy as they thought the "Eastern armies" such as the Ottomans were running too fast.

The order of the army and the speed of movement are not the most direct problems. Because in this world, there are also various epidemics, including willow disease.

Later generations may simply find the disease difficult to talk about, or simply ignore it. But in this day and age, they can have a very lethal effect on the military.

Especially in the late 15th century, syphilis suddenly appeared very devastating.

The origin of this disease cannot be completely determined by future generations. Some people believe that the disease is long-lasting, but for a certain period of time, its virulence suddenly increases for some reason; However, more people believe that it is not a native disease of Eurasia, but a gift from Native Americans to Europeans.

In Guo Kang's world, not long after Columbus returned, King Charles VIII of France led an army to attack Naples. In order to fulfill the long-cherished wish of the French, Charles VIII assembled the most elite army he could dispatch, including 2,000 military police knights, 6,000 Swiss infantry, and more than 100 of the most advanced artillery pieces of the time. This army of tens of thousands of men penetrated the whole of Italy from the north in a year.

Milan and Ferrara defected to France, Florence and Rome were conquered, and finally, the French army succeeded in capturing Naples in the south. Charles VIII dressed as the Eastern Roman Emperor and crowned himself in Naples, a wish that seemed to come true soon.

However, in an attempt to maintain control over the locality, syphilis broke out in the French army. The soldiers were tormented by disease, which eventually led to the inability of the entire army to fight, and the defeat and disintegration. Charles VIII, while rejoicing with the people, also contracted this dangerous disease, and died unexpectedly more than a year after his return, and the descendants of the Valois dynasty have since become extinct.

Charles VIII's army came from all over Europe, and the European armies of the time would sometimes exchange women with the warring sides while fighting. This led to the rapid spread of the disease, which spread everywhere.

After that, the disease was not controlled at all. In the 19th century, British Army statistics found that 30% of soldiers were infected with willow disease.

The French were even more serious victims – in Vilnius, the Russians defeated Napoleon's Grand Army and hastily buried tens of thousands of French corpses in mass graves. Later scholars excavated and found that more than 80% of the remains of French soldiers were suffering from severe syphilis, so much so that there were obvious marks on the bones. In this case, it is conceivable how much combat effectiveness the army can maintain, and this is obviously not the only time that the French army has been destroyed by the "General Willow".

So, it's not a question of moral cleanliness, it's a real threat to the military. But Guo Kang doesn't know how to remind others of this kind of thing. Tuhuan is now starting to call him Guo Banxian, and if he continues like this, he will simply learn to tell hexagrams.

But it is not okay to ignore it directly.

According to the first theory, he would have to be ready now. Because for the evolution of the disease, it is only a small error to appear early or delayed by decades. No one can say whether this highly pathogenic strain will emerge anytime soon.

The second is even more troublesome. Guo Kang's long-term plan has always included exploring the Americas by the old route of the Vikings from the North Sea. However, because of their long-term adaptation, the Americans are more resistant to this disease than the Europeans, so as long as it spreads in Europe, it is easy to cause serious killing.

Moreover, the disease spread very quickly, because European sailors would certainly not be able to control the lower half of their bodies. Even if Brother Tian himself came, he couldn't stop them from contracting and spreading the disease.

In his world, Columbus himself was probably the earliest communicator. Doctors at the time recorded several cases as soon as his boat landed. Columbus himself fell ill with insanity and hallucinations on his second voyage.

Although he himself believed that this was a manifestation of his chosen God, and that his Heavenly Father had asked him to spread light in an uncivilized world, according to the analysis of later doctors, this was a symptom of syphilis. Sure enough, the last half of Columbus's body was swollen, quadriplegic, his bones ached, and his mind was in a state of confusion, and he died in a long period of pain and madness.

Of course, probably because of the special status of Columbus himself, this issue is not often raised. After all, he brought a twist of fortune to Europe, and the action also had religious significance. said that people's apocalypse is actually a flower willow disease on the brain, it is estimated that many people are really difficult to accept......

Considering that in the end, all Guo Kang can come up with is to use religious restraint and provide entertainment alternatives.

The knowledge from the "future" has allowed Guo Kang to design many plans and want to try them one by one. But in the end, his conclusions based on "science" often had to rely on the help of religion to carry them out.

Always facing this situation, he has a feeling of black humor, but this time, the starring role is himself.

This phenomenon can even become a big topic of philosophy and theology. With Li Xuanying's cultural level, even if he is told, it is estimated that it will be difficult to understand, let alone help him. So Guo Kang thought about it for a long time, but he could only think about it himself.

Seeing that he was silent, Li Xuanying also did not ask again. Since he was a child, he has been taught by his father because he is too stupid than Guo Kang. Seeing that smart people begin to think about problems, in order to avoid embarrassing themselves, they habitually do not speak......

The two of them bypassed the crowd of spectators and the staff who were busy going back and forth. Along the way, many members of the troupe seemed to know Li Xuanying, and no one came to stop them. Li Xuanying took him to the backstage with ease.

"Why are you so familiar?" Guo Kang was surprised: "How many plays have you secretly run out to watch?" ”

"Uh......" Li Xuanying was a little embarrassed: "How? Not much, right? ”

Guo Kang thought about it and decided not to ask. In the future, both he and the church are ready to use drama to promote it, and it is better to have a close friend who knows how to do it than to go directly to him. Of course, just don't let his dad know.

After the show, everyone seemed to be relieved, and some of the actors were sitting in the preparation room to rest. As they entered, the actors of "The Sun" and the actors of "Goddess of Desire" passed by holding hands and went to the exit on the side of the backstage. It seems that the rumors should also be true.

Everyone should know Li Xuanying, and some people give him a look. Seeing him nod, he said hello.

Next to him, the leader of the singing team held a script book, grabbed a singer, and kept asking him to repeat a few words of singing. When Li Xuanying passed by, she glanced back at him a few times. It's just that neither of them paid attention and was still practicing there.

"What's wrong?" Guo Kang asked.

"That man sang wrong, and the team leader corrected his mistake." Li Xuanying said.

Guo Kang stopped and listened. It's a pity that with his level of understanding, he really can't find the mistake, so he has to give up and move on.

In the end, Li Xuanying took him to an independent office door and knocked on the door: "Is there anyone?" It's me, Alex. ”

"Please come in." A clear and pleasant voice came from behind the door, and it seemed to be a slightly higher pitched boy.

Li Xuanying pushed open the door, walked in, nodded inward, and then pulled Guo Kang in. When he entered, he turned back and closed the door carefully.

In this small office, two ceiling-high shelves lean against two walls, one of which is stacked with various performance props and costumes, and the other has a lot of miscellaneous items and rows of books. In front of the shelf, there is a desk and a small cabinet. On the table lay a mess of manuscript paper, two bottles of ink, a few broken quills, and two brushes. In the corner of the table, there is an oil lamp.

A man dressed in an intricate blue robe and a long white dress stood up from behind his desk. Guo Kang recognized that this was the actor who played the goddess of deception Apat just now.

"Gui'an, I'm Odoxes." The actor seemed to have guessed Guo Kang's identity, bowed politely to greet him, and then looked at Li Xuanying as if he was waiting for him to introduce him.

"You're welcome, this is my brother Guo Kang, I told you about him before." Li Xuanying looked very invisible, and as she spoke, she went directly to pull the chair next to her, preparing to let Guo Kang sit down first.

Taking advantage of this time, Guo Kang glanced at the other party slightly.

Eudoses had long, silky black hair that was braided at the back of his head. On the fair-skinned and round goose egg face, the facial features are delicate and upright, and the delicate is somewhat beautiful.

Guo Kang couldn't help but sigh that the hobbies of the Greeks were more special, and I don't know if it was related to the appearance of the people here. looked at Li Xuanying, who was obviously very familiar here, and couldn't help but continue to think.

"Sit, sit." Li Xuanying was unconscious, and beckoned the two to sit down: "By the way, Brother Guo Kang is also his own person who knows the roots, so there is no need to continue pretending here." ”

"Ah, that's rude." "Odoses" looked relieved, and his tone suddenly rose again, becoming a light girlish voice, but he still looked at Guo Kang politely and cautiously, and then apologized to him.

"Huh?" Guo Kang didn't react for a while.

"Her name is Odosia, and she's an old friend of mine." Li Xuanying introduced it in Greek, and Guo Kang completely confirmed the gender of this person.

"Ah......" Guo Kang nodded awkwardly.

The two men didn't seem too surprised by his reaction. Li Xuanying smiled with an expected expression.

Oudothea sat back at the desk, but looking at Li Xuanying's appearance, she couldn't help it, raised the corners of her mouth, and said, "Okay, what are you proud of." ”

"It's rare for him to have such an expression." Li Xuanying said happily.

For a while, Guo Kang next to him was even more embarrassed, and even began to reflect on whether he had gotten along too much with the Greeks and had crooked ideas.
