Shendu Lijing, the new capital of the Great Song Dynasty, was the largest city in the north established on the basis of the former capital of the Yuan Dynasty to the east.

As the capital of a vast empire, it was home to a large number of important institutions throughout the empire, such as the government council, the imperial palace, the various ministries and temples, and various important academic institutions.

Especially after the entire country recovered from the decay of the last years of the Yuan Dynasty, a large number of academies were gradually established in the capital, and a national academic center was formed in the south of the city.

Unlike before, in addition to classics, a series of new disciplines such as theology, martial arts, and practical studies also established their own academies, and a steady stream of students was added to the entire imperial bureaucracy.

Since Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, this land has once again entered the era of a hundred schools of thought, but now no one can clearly realize this.

The reason for this is simple: the government and the royalists are competing with each other, and the factions within each side are also competing, so for each side they need to do as much power as they can.

While the losers of the competition do not lose their biological lives, they do lose their political lives, and this is no different for those political animals than their biological lives.

In this way, all kinds of competition will naturally be very fierce: in order to survive, no one will cheat in this situation, and in the case of competition, a large number of ideas will be connected together, and burst out brilliant sparks.

This, in turn, forced Confucianism, which had dominated the mainstream of thought, to make drastic reforms. The focus of his thinking shifted from Confucius to Mencius, and the large-scale propaganda was similar to "the people are noble and the monarch is light", "I have heard that the husband is punished, but I have not heard of the king." "Wait.

The fierce clash of ideas also attracted the attention of the princes, the cabinet and even the emperor, who often came here to inspect the various schools.

In addition to the regular work such as condolences to scholars and visiting the college, the most important thing is to ensure that you can keep abreast of academic changes and stay at the forefront of academics.

At the same time as Liang En and the others analyzed the location of the gods, the elites of the entire imperial court came to the gate of the real academy in the city of Chengnan Academy, and the leader was the prime minister Yao Guangxiao.

As soon as he got off the carriage pulled by the pegasus, Yao Guangxiao glanced at the construction site on the high platform on the left side of the school yard that was blocked by a temporary fence, and then turned to the right to another huge building.

The building was built three years ago, and in order to have as much interior space as possible, a lot of Western and even Tessie architectural designs were adopted, so it naturally became a topic of conversation among the students and residents of the college.

There are many opinions about the purpose of this building, but the official description of the college is that this building is a facility for students to learn mechanical skills, but in fact, students will only study in the power room and organ room on the periphery of the main building.

The only people who could enter the main building of the room were a handful of faculty members from the academy and their assistants, as well as officials from the cabinet, the Qin Heavenly Eunuch, and even the Jinyi Guard, but they never revealed what was inside.

After passing through numerous security checks, Yao Guangxiao finally led the officials to the inside of the factory's core building, and then a huge machine appeared in front of everyone.

The machine, which was made up of countless gears, levers, shafts, and so on, was now running and making a clattering sound, even drowning out the voices of those around it

"I've seen the Prime Minister." When they entered, a middle-aged man in sackcloth and straw shoes arched his hand at them. Although he didn't speak loudly, everyone heard him.

"I've seen Juzi." After seeing the middle-aged man in front of him saluting, the visitors returned the salute one after another. For them, this new Mo family is a person who deserves their respect.

Because after the war of recovery against the Yuan Dynasty began, the Mo family, which had been hidden for thousands of years, joined the ranks of the rebels under the leadership of Juzi because of the influence of the original Confucianism, and thanks to their help, the rebels were able to win many key wars.

When peace came, the Mo family studied a variety of production tools under the leadership of Juzi, which greatly made up for the shortage of manpower caused by the withering population at that time.

The current replacement machine is also designed and built by the Mohists, and it can even be said that it is the core project of the entire Mohists in the last 30 years - a machine that can replace human beings in thinking.

That's right, it's not that difficult to make something think in the transcendent world, whether it's cultivating a vessel soul or sealing certain souls into items.

But these items have a fatal drawback – they are expensive and demanding on the operator, and they are not destined to be widely available.

Not to mention that except for a very small number of growing magic weapons, most of the machine spirits can only remain at the level at which they appeared, which also greatly limits the scope of their use.

So at the initiative of the previous Juzi, this machine began to be built, but after two years had passed as originally planned, the computer that gathered the strength of the entire school could only perform the simplest four operations.

Such a machine can be said to be worthless to this world with extraordinary powers, and most of the Mo family also want to turn their attention to the research and production of various magic weapons.

But when Prime Minister Hu Weiyong saw this cabinet-sized computer that could only do four simple operations, he immediately realized that this was an existence that changed the future.

He began to mobilize his forces and connections to provide a lot of money and manpower for the project, and converted the project into a national project.

Compared to the school, the state was obviously much stronger, so in less than a year a larger computer was built, and it had the ability to perform low-power power and open operations.

Many leaders of the empire did not understand the significance of this project, and they felt that not to mention some supernatural powers, it was a waste to use such a large machine to solve a problem that one person could solve with a pen and a piece of paper.

Fortunately, the military and the Qin Tianjian saw the potential of this computer, and after receiving their investment, the plan was smoothly advanced, and soon, the more complex computer showed more computing power.

For example, this computer can now complete a person's workload for a whole year without eating, drinking, or sleeping in one day, while ensuring that there are no mistakes.

The excellent performance also makes everyone want to believe that this type of machine will become a new source of strength for the entire country.

"The biggest problem now is that we still can't get rid of the help of extraordinary powers, for example, all mechanical parts can only be guaranteed with sufficient precision by using extraordinary powers."

After a brief greeting, Juzi began to introduce the project.

"On top of that, the power source is also a big problem, and we can't find a power that can guarantee a stable supply of power and can be used all year round, so we have to use extraordinary power."

"That's good enough." Prime Minister Yao Guangxiao is very satisfied with the current situation. Because both the military and the Qin Tianjian have already received a lot of benefits from this project.

Especially when it comes to math calculations and data collation, this computer can be said to be unbeatable - everyone has tried to train machine spirits or anything like that, but those things really can't learn math.

"Gintai Division's rush to play—"

At this moment, the small door next to the gate opened, and then an official in a black flying fish suit trotted in, and at the same time shouted loudly, and the people present got out of the way.

This is the highest level of urgency in the empire, and only the chief official of a place is qualified once at the same time, and if the matter is not urgent, the official who issued the urgent performance will be demoted or even questioned.

Therefore, this channel will only be activated in the most urgent cases, and each activation represents the occurrence of an important event.

So when the document was sent, Yao Guangxiao's face immediately became serious, and then he took the document.

Because there was so much content in the document, he simply omitted the text and only picked the important sentences:

"——The sudden death of the gods, the killing of innocents, the suffering of thousands of people, the upside down, day by day...... When calamity comes, it is impossible to prevent it. The begging court dispatched troops to defend against enemy attacks...... The minister only draws a picture of what he sees day by day, but through the eyes, it can already be terrifying, and even this? ……”

Yao Guangxiao was very surprised that a small county order dared to use Yintai to play urgently, and what the other party said made the prime minister, who had been a monk, treat him differently.

When he unfolded the attached map, his eyes widened with red dots on the map, and a few minutes later he ordered the officials around him to immediately find information about the change of gods and similar mountain ghosts near the mouth of the Yangzi River in the past year.

After looking at the diagram, he asked Mo Jiajuzi to stop the calculations that the computer was doing, and then calculated a series of data based on the information found by the officials, and then deduced the possible enemies and forces based on those data.

At this time, they found out that some officials had written about it since half a year ago, but because those officials did not make such a comprehensive analysis and report through ordinary channels, everyone did not realize that the situation was wrong.

"The attackers will attack the entire Yangtze River estuary from the sea in 10 to 15 days with about 20,000 people."

As the center, the information collected was naturally much more than that of Liang En, and the masters who could analyze were much stronger than the three of them, so Yao Guangxiao got a detailed analysis after more than two hours.

"What is certain is that a large-scale war is about to break out in Nanzhili."

"Qi Tai, the governor of Nanzhili, is incompetent, trapped in fire and water, so many things happened under his nose and he didn't find it."

After reading the analysis report, Yao Guangxiao, who usually had Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his face did not change, was rarely angry, but he soon regained his calm.

"Convene the Imperial Council of the Political Affairs Hall, I hope to be able to make a decision today, after all, the Yuanhe County Order has bought us ten days, I hope it will not be wasted."
