Chapter 211: The City of Axiom
Chengdu Mansion, Kong Ming's smile could no longer be suppressed.
The movements of his hands have not stopped, and the smile on the corners of his mouth has not diminished.
What is a surprise? It's called a surprise!
Compared with the physical objects of later generations, Kong Ming and others now attach more importance to the scientific ideas of later generations.
After all, Huainanzi has a saying that it is better to take fire than to take fire, and it is better to dig a well.
It is also said that if you are near the river and envy the fish, it is better to go home and weave a net.
At that time, when chatting with Liu Ba, Liu Ba once sighed that the "Dongfeng Express" in later generations was like a ghost and god, and the "Heavenly Palace" was like an ancient myth.
Immediately, Liu Ba said with a smile, saying that even if he was lucky enough to get the drawings of these two things, most of them could only be like a well frog watching the sea summer insects and sniffing the ice, knowing that it was broad and difficult to follow the reason.
That's what happened to the sextant that was reflected on the screen of time.
The entire shape is angular and looks like it is made of red gold, and it is inlaid with transparent glass called a lens.
Kong Ming has painted the whole of it, but why it was made like this, and how to use it, is unknown.
And this predicament, which has long been perceived, now seems to have a solution.
"Theorem righteousness, false public assumption, on axioms?"
Liu Ba is also transcribing all these half-understood words and pondering carefully:
"The meaning of this axiom is easy to understand."
Pang Tong worked hard to join in, unwilling to be opened up by Kong Ming:
"The world is the justice, the law is the reason, and the axiom is the eternal and unchanging principle that can pass through the world."
Liu Ba agreed, he thought the same way, and at the same time continued:
This logic ...... The meaning of the patrol is quite numerous, and it should refer to the meaning of bringing together the literature and science. ”
While talking and thinking, Liu Ba had already vaguely understood something, and admired in his heart the words made by the sages of later generations, and it was really good to look forward to righteousness.
Liu Ba and Pang Tong deduced word by word, while Kong Ming used his pen to sort out these conjectures one by one and carefully transcribe them, and filled in the gaps in the discussion between the two.
Zhang Song pinched his beard, thinking thoughtfully while listening, Liu Bei, who was at the top, felt that he was listening quite hard, but as soon as he turned his head, he saw Zhang Fei listening with full interest.
"Yide understands?"
Zhang Fei nodded:
"It's a little difficult, but if you compare the military formation with the fortification, you can understand it a little."
Saying that, Zhang Fei dipped his hand in tea and gestured on the table:
"The classic writings of the sages are like gathering villages and markets on the plains."
"We don't hear from each other, we don't associate with each other."
"The axiomatic method is to draw out the good people of these classic villages and build a big city."
"In this axiomatic city, the beloved people from the same source live in the same square, register and make records, and sort out the relationship between the elder and the young."
Zhang Fei's face was slightly proud, and his expression was quick to praise me.
Kong Ming still has room to stretch out his head and admire:
"Although the understanding of Yide does not understand its deep meaning, it also refers to the meaning of this logical law very well."
So Zhang Fei was even more smug.
Liu Bei patted Zhang Fei's shoulder and sighed slightly:
"Yide is a master of the book, and he reads diligently."
Immediately, Liu Bei also made up his mind:
"That being the case, we should urge Wu Yi to completely sweep Nanzhong as soon as possible and start the drug business."
"Reward this Geometric Original, cotton and other things."
Liu Bei still remembered that there were no sea ships under his command now, so he had to make this decision, and he begged for a lot of money in the hope that the Hu businessmen would be able to fight for the sake of interests.
Although Liu Bei did not understand the discussion of Kong Ming and others, he had a clear understanding of its importance.
And they also understand that the meaning they interpret now is speculated through the eyes of the younger generations, and it is inevitable that there will be worries about the three becoming tigers, and in any case, it is best to get the translation of this work, and it is best to compare the two.
Kong Ming and the others gave up their hands together, and agreed with Liu Bei's decision.
At the same time, Kong Ming also had a little longing:
"If Chang'an is restored, it should be reopened, the righteousness of things will be studied, the axioms of arithmetic will be studied, and the lens workshop will be made."
From the meaning of the words that have been precipitated today, Kong Ming sees a great academic undertaking that requires the investment of the power of the empire.
If you want to study science, you must restart Taixue and build it into a better institution.
At the same time, this school also needs a variety of workshops to support, such as this lens polishing, Kong Ming did not know how to polish glass in the West, but in Yizhou finally found a few glaze workers.
The expansion of the glass workshop also needs to increase the glass grinding workshop, and at the same time, it is necessary to consider making money from glass, and the most obvious plan is that the population is not enough.
Therefore, it is also necessary to encourage fertility, pay attention to agriculture, and at the same time wage war with Cao thieves to recapture the more populous Central Plains.
As long as he planned a little, Kong Ming saw that there were too many things to do in the future.
But he is happy to be like this, as long as he can succeed, such a feat is tantamount to recreating Yan Han.
However, when he thought of Taixue in Chang'an, Kong Ming remembered a stone carving that he had always wanted to see.
I couldn't help but sigh:
"I don't know if Taixue Shijing is safe?"
……
In the Ganlu Palace, Li Shimin also understood the importance of it for the first time.
also sighed because of this:
"In this way, the "original" is the scripture that needs to be taken."
Even at this time, Li Shimin was seriously considering sending an envoy out of the Western Regions to catch up with Wang Xuance and his party, and ordered him to go to Central Asia.
But Li Shimin immediately remembered the situation over there and dispelled this idea.
Calculating the time, then Sassanid Persia is about to die, and he has to fight with that Byzantium.
Next to the two empires, the Arabs are still taking advantage of the situation, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a chaotic world, if Wang Xuance folds there, he will regret it.
So the Son of Heaven of the Tang Empire changed his mind in an instant:
"Form a fleet, go to the west, promote the prestige of our Tang Dynasty, and make the best use of the ...... of the West"
Li Shimin paused and used the words of his juniors:
"Make the most of the cultural achievements of other generations."
Li Shimin's idea is very inclusive, since General Hu can become a star of the Tang Dynasty, then the Western Rakshasa people can also be the masters of the Tang Dynasty.
Moreover, looking back, Li Shimin felt that the conditions for sending the fleet to the west were becoming more and more mature, with strong ships to ensure that the personnel were safe, and canned food to prevent water and soil from adapting, and this map that later generations did not care about could be used as the most accurate nautical chart at this time, and it was possible to travel west along the coast.
In this case, we should take the essence of the world, attribute it to the Tang Dynasty, and create China.
It's just a pity that Lord Niu seems to be at least four or five hundred years later, otherwise wouldn't it be beautiful to bring the Tang Dynasty to be a Niu Guogong?
And this plan, Li Shimin took a look around, deliberately ignoring the expectant eyes of the eldest grandson Wuji and Hou Junji, and finally settled on Liu Renliang:
"When you enter the sea, you must not only learn to govern the army, but also observe the new method of shipbuilding, and wait for the East China Sea to calm down, and then I will inspect the West."
Before taking office, the position and the like have been arranged, but for Liu Renliang, he is doubly excited.
Because no matter how you look at it, I feel that this life is far more interesting than being a county magistrate in Chencang.
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui cautiously picked up another page and copied the few words about the "Geometric Original".
The two of them and Wei Zheng had many ideas when they saw the original narrative of this pair of geometry, but in the end, they only stopped at the idea in their hearts.
After all, a few people are already very busy, and this kind of scholarly matter is best handed over to Guozijian, as the old saying goes, the ruler is short and the inch is long.
Now that His Majesty wants to vigorously promote the imperial examination, it is foreseeable that the future status of Guozijian will inevitably become more and more important.
In this case, this essence of Western scholarship should be handed over to Guozijian to cultivate the culture of the Tang Dynasty.
Several generals are staring at the light curtain with innocent eyes, this science, lenses, or something, in fact, they don't understand much, and almost all follow instinct:
Looking at the map next to him to estimate the distance between Datang and the West, in the end he could only sigh, the only thing Datang could compete with the West was Central Asia, and it would be too difficult to go farther.
Li Jing stroked his beard thoughtfully:
A collection of low-probability events that combine to form the result of the moment?
If we draw an analogy, how can this not be the case in the art of war?
The ability of the famous general is to turn this small probability into an inevitability.
Well, just like yourself.
"But why does this Niu Jue call it Apple Tianzun? What is an apple? ”
Hou Junji looked left and right and took the initiative to ask, because he really couldn't understand why such a powerful character was passed down under a fruit name?
"The name of this Tianzun should be laughed at by the younger generations."
Fang Xuanling speculated and was very sure:
"As for the apple...... Or maybe it's because this cow lord is studying apples...... Enlightenment? ”
But Fang Xuanling couldn't understand, what is there to study about an apple? And:
"What is an apple? Is it unique to the West? ”
Several people looked at each other again, and it was really unclear about this.
However, Qin Qiong guessed:
"The former dynasty called Pu Tao, and I called Tang grapes, so this apple also reminded the minister, Hebei has called Nai Guo as Pinpo fruit, or is it a thing?"
is reasonable, so several people also pressed their minds in their hearts, planning to go back and find a Naiguo to study.
Little Naiguo actually hides the opportunity to become enlightened?
[Before the start of the battle with the Tang Army, the Japanese army was ambitious and vowed to let the Tang Dynasty understand who was the father and who was the son.
As a result, before the fight, he spoke boldly, when he fought nonsense, and after the fight, he was silent.
The defeated Wa State at the mouth of the Baijiang River directly chose to close the wheat, and urgently recruited a large number of farmers to build fortifications along the coast of Kyushu Island, very afraid that the Tang Army would directly destroy the country in a landing battle, and these ruins can still be seen in Japan today.
This atmosphere of extreme panic lasted for two years.
And the Wa kingdom was honest, Baekje was also repressed, and Silla was also very deferential on the surface, so it was logical that the destruction of Goguryeo was once again put on the agenda.
This time, there were no more accidents, from the dispatch of troops in September 667 to the surrender of the king of Goguryeo in March of the following year, only half a year before and after, Goguryeo finally perished completely.
Goguryeo's sacrifice of prisoners is similar to that of Xiaolu of the Western Turks, Li Zhi still remembers his father, and still sacrifices prisoners in front of Erfeng's tomb first, and then sacrifices prisoners in Taimiao, and finally Li Zhi is captured in Hanyuan Palace, which can be regarded as giving enough face in a sense.
At this point, the Tang Dynasty finally unified Liaodong and the Korean Peninsula, and five years later, a cry from Dafei Sichuan Guo was to be sealed, and a large area of land was sent to Silla. 】
There is still a chapter later, and the work of this year's LOL World Championship is really comfortable.
