.In fact, the Portuguese flowers also fell.

It seems like a very painful sentence. But since ancient times, chrysanthemums have been light and elegant in people's impression. This is how people are as light as chrysanthemums. Either they are arrogant, and they are covered with golden armor all over the city. Not only are they arrogant, but they also have awesome murderous intent.

Only those who are idle and have pain will observe whether the chrysanthemum will be considered zero. Li Wei is idle now and it is very painful.

Watching him lying beside the chrysanthemum bushes to watch’ Zheng Gongchu said: “Your Majesty, all the swallows flew away yesterday.”

"oh."

"You have a long history, and weapons can be complementary to each other.

The weapon of the Great Cannibal is very sharp, and the most famous one is the Great Cannibal Sword. After the Tang Dynasty, it was called the Great Cannibal Sword. There are also huge attacking rams, some of which can be as long as dozens of meters and require hundreds of people to pull. But Byzantium is not useless. They can resist for so long, and they also have some aces in their hands. The first ace is Greek Fire. The sea ship technology is not as good as Daqi. However, the location of the Mediterranean Sea is very important. With Greek Fire, it can ensure that the threat of the Great Cannibal on the Mediterranean Sea is not very high.

Then there are the royal heavy cavalry, which are wrapped all over, including war horses. This heavy cavalry is extremely expensive and requires high physical strength for people and horses. The armor and weapons are very heavy. If you don’t have good physical strength, don’t move, let alone fight. The same is true for horses, and if they carry heavy weights, they can’t run even if they don’t have good physical strength. They are the most fierce military in Byzantine, equivalent to the Modao Hand of the Tang Dynasty.

Most ordinary soldiers are cavalry, and their weapons are mainly compound bows and cavalry guns. Sometimes they use shuttle marks and axes to throw them to kill the enemy. Shields are divided into two types: cavalry use small round shields, which is not much different from the Tang Dynasty's army. Other soldiers do not use large shields, but a triangular zither-shaped shield. However, the production of bows is backward than that of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, soldiers mostly give up bows and arrows on the battlefield, and use shuttles or cavalry guns to kill the enemy. Some are more advanced than the Tang Dynasty, but most weapons are slightly behind.

This involves Yi Ding’ casting technology and some other techniques. It is not possible to make a horse with the technology. Just like Li Weima pulled out from the general supervisor and went to the Bytte to teach it personally, it may not be developed within ten or eight years. Including the trenchers, both Dashi and Byzantine have trenchers. Some light trenchers may have slightly slight techniques in the Tang Dynasty. If it were the trenchers originally designed in Yaozhou, the Byzantines would be easy to imitate, but later they improved it time and time, adding many machine-packages. Well, it would be very difficult to imitate.

So Li Wei repeatedly told Hu Ying that it was not only seeds, technology, but also craftsmen. However, this time Hu Ying brought a large number of messengers and went out to complete the tasks, including seeds, books and some techniques, but not many craftsmen brought them.

The more you know, the less you dare to be big. In terms of craftsmanship alone, perhaps the Central Plains is more skillful, but the West does not particularly despise it. There are many aspects that are not as big as he imagined. On the contrary, in a few areas, it is possible that it will be better than it.

Li Wei humbly used one for complementary quotas. We can sell what you need to you. You can also sell what we need to. Which one should I like to eat depends on which country's weapons are advanced. From the strategic significance, the "complementary" between the two countries will gain a lot of benefits. And it seems that because of the distance and the geopolitical conflict between the two countries has not been handed over, the cooperation is more sincere and credible.

This matter is not trivial. These big food messengers who came to join in the fun can do the master. However, the results of this visit were far beyond their expectations. I immediately agreed and reported to their king as soon as I went back.

Then he arrived at the Samo Khanate and said nothing, but just made some friendships. Although they were descendants of the Asian Games, they were in the process of Ouyuan, which disappointed Li Wei. After making a friendship, he would take the next step to see if he could use this piece to benefit in the future.

Another point is the Avar people.

The Avals began to fall, but through conversation, Li Wei discovered that they had a strong influence in Eastern Europe, and because they were mainly plundering, they kept a lot of wealth in their hands. A hundred years later, Charlemagne defeated the Avals and obtained a mountain of gold, silver and jewelry. Even now, whether military or wealth, they are not weaker than the Bulgarian Kingdom and the Duchy of Satsuma. According to this special, before they left, Li Wei summoned these envoys to the East Palace again.

One thing you said is that you originated from Rouran, and in theory, they are also part of our Great China. Therefore, I feel very uncomfortable when I see you decline. I really want to provide you with a batch of weapons free of charge when treating the Uighurs, but there is a reason to work.

When they heard that they could get a batch of weapons for free, the envoys immediately understood and bent down, and surrendered to Li Wei on behalf of their great Khan and to the Tang Dynasty. At least they were ministers, otherwise how could they provide their weapons well? Besides, they didn't know how far away from the Tang Dynasty, and they didn't care about it, but they got real benefits. [What is the issue of the face of the people in the Central Plains, which does not exist for them.

Li Wei asked another question: You are in a feud with the Byzantines, how can these weapons be delivered to you? It is not a thousand miles or two thousand miles away, and I don’t know how far it is. When Hu Ying went, he went from the river to the Dashi and then to the Byzantine Yin.

But when I came, I didn't dare to go along the Caspian Sea, walked around the path through the Hezhong area, and arrived at the Tang Dynasty. The expansion of the food in the Great Food did not stop for a day. After going back and forth, it is not necessarily known whether this road can exist. Even if it exists, Byzantium will not allow the Avals to become stronger again.

The messenger was speechless.

Li Weicai expressed his intention. From the south of Caspian, it would definitely not work. He could only go from the north of Caspian, but that was not easy. When he arrived at the Hezhong, it was a controlled area of ​​the Tang Dynasty, and there were no big problems. But this influence could only reach the Aral Sea. After passing the Aral Sea, it was the Avaren area, and there were also races such as the East Slavs, the Pecheneg people. Or to the north, there were the original Caucasians and other races. These tribes could not be called countries, but they were by no means barren areas. Some tribes were very powerful and fierce.

So Li Wei formulated a strategy for the Ava people, to get along with each other from a distance, attack near and near, take out some of the accumulated wealth, bribe the Byzantines, and then expand east and north, and embezzle these backward tribes, but he must not blindly attack the Franks, Bulgarians, or Byzantines, and the civilized Sislavs. He opened up the business road on the north coast of the Caspian Sea! He increased his own strength. Then he sent an envoy and an army to the Tang Dynasty and escort the weapons back. The number of weapons would also give them a very unexpected surprise. He could even attack under the banner of the Tang Dynasty.

The messenger said again, each one seemed to be for the Aval people. The reason can be understood. The Tang Dynasty wanted to save face and wanted to get a powerful country of dependents in the distance. But if you want to destroy Ou Hong's civilization and make Ou Hong a world without writing and civilized barbarians, the Aval people's power was still too weak. And now you must never offend the Byzantines. First, you must keep it to resist the big food, and second, the Aval people have been weakened and are by no means the Byzantines. Expanding north and east will not touch the Byzantines and the Holy See. This is the premise for whether Aval can truly grow up again in recent years. Without growing, this piece cannot play the goal that Li Wei wants to achieve.

After the arrangement was completed, they were sent away.

But this move is a bit far away. If you want to achieve it, it may take more than ten years, twenty years, and more than thirty years.

However, another move must be achieved.

Japan has large orders, batches of weapons are made and shipped, and then sent to Japan with the large ships made. However, weapons and ships will not be delivered until next spring, and the Japanese still have not taken action. However, some smart officials have seen that the orders are small and may not be paid attention to. Such a huge amount of goods has driven the development of the industry and what changes have been brought to the people? Especially in Quanzhou, not only ports, but also ship manufacturing, labor salaries have actually increased to 100 cents a day.

The late autumn and early winter of this year were quiet, but with the arrival of these weapons, the war on the Silla Peninsula will surely be reignited.

The maritime ban has also been released.

Li Wei remained silent, and Liu Rengui and others did not say anything. Finally, Xue Yuanchao finally stood up and spoke. Although sailing has many disadvantages, it made people think that the country valued business and was cheaper for farmers, it also had many good intentions, which brought a lot of taxes to the country. In a sense, it can be said that it was to expand territory for the country, open up the royalization to the indigenous people of the South China Sea, and promote the civilization of the Central Plains.

Hearing this, Li Wei just lowered his head and wanted to laugh. What a kingly transformation, can bows, arrows, swords and guns be kingly transformation? Can these merchants represent the kingly transformation and civilization of the Central Plains people?

Then Xue Yuanchao continued to speak righteously, so the quota set by good and bad businessmen at that time, but many people were worried and the time was tight, which was indeed unfair to some extent. Therefore, it was good for the country to relax, and it could also suppress the dissatisfaction in the hearts of the people.

Pei Yan would definitely not say anything, but Bi Yuanchao's words were equivalent to the Taihuang and the Empress Dowager's words. The son did not speak, and it was suppressed for several months. All major families should also realize that the court is not the final word of the son. The interests of all major classes are not very active. Although it is possible that Wu Zetian wanted to blow the southeast wind as Di Renjie had guessed, the consequences made her hesitate and ask for help.

No other people objected.

At the beginning of the month, a mistake was issued and another 150 merchants were sent to sea. If you pay more money, who will be the quota? The country is using money, redeeming the troops, wars in the north, Danshui Canal, and the future national overhaul of water conservancy. I will take orchids to the people and use them to the people, which cannot be regarded as profit. You say you are a good merchant. The country needs a lot of money and the people need a lot of money. If you don't donate at this time, what is good? It's said? The number of ships has not been released, but the number of ships in various places should be cultivated and controlled. The original number of people is definitely not enough. So on the original basis, the quota has doubled. I dare not turn it over again. There are many people going abroad and doing the most dangerous jobs. If there are too many people, it may cause criticism.

As for the date of termination, it is still the end of New Year's Day as before.

Except for the increase in the number of people and quotas, there is nothing new. Everything is imitated by Li Wei's past, but it is replaced by a group of ministers who are close to the empress dowager or the emperor led by Xue Yuanchao.

Even when Liu Rengui visited the sick Yu Chujun, he sighed: "I heard from His Majesty that the predecessors planted trees and the descendants enjoyed the cool air, which was quite interesting. However, now everything has turned around. The Emperor created the two saints, and there is no day, and no one has two masters. How can there be two saints? Also, parents paving the way for their sons is a tradition of Chinese people for the past thousand years, but what about now?"

Du Chujun said lightly: "Mr. Liu, please support me and say, everything is for the country. The Taihuang Spring and Autumn Period is not very high. He forced himself to leave the position of emperor and felt a little wronged. He just regarded it as compensation. You are round in your style, not like me, nor like Mr. Li. This is a good thing. Change is the key to adapting. It is not important to be angry. It doesn't matter if you get angry. Your Majesty also expects you to stand up safely and uphold justice when you are at the critical moment. I am not able to do it anymore. "

"Mr. Hao, you must take care of yourself. You are a big tree in the court, and you can't do it. Your Majesty, I want to use it again."

"It's not possible, I know my body. But I feel lucky to be able to live to this point safely." In the court, he was the most determined warrior. If Li Wei had not taken charge of the emperor's position, Wu Zetian had more and more government affairs in recent years, and more and more ministers had turned against him. He would have doubted whether he could die a good death.

Liu Rengui was speechless.

Everyone had to wait until the Emperor returned to heaven as soon as possible, otherwise this knot would never be untied.

Just under this and the situation, the Tubo envoys reached Luoyang.

The winter moon has arrived, and it is also raining and sleeting from time to time in Luoyang. The heavy snow has not fallen, but the weather is very cold.

Carbon fires also rose in the Eastern Palace.

Li Wei wrote for a while and felt cold. He didn't sit down. He put down his brush and came to the middle of the hall. Several wives and concubines were talking.

"What are you saying?"

Bier replied, "Your Majesty, are you talking about Qinghai? Xu Fangyi just said that it was not yet the twelfth lunar month, and the weather was so cold. Ye Ci Cairen said that Qinghai is even colder in winter than here. At this time, there may be heavy snow on the mountains and fields."

"It's so sharp, it's so cold."

"So is it still cold on the Tubo Plateau?"

"Yes, but it's not the coldest place. After passing the northern part of Yuwuyuan Lake Baikal, a jimizhou set up in the Tang Dynasty here will be colder to the north. Further north, the snow in many places will not melt all year round. Even when summer comes, it will be much colder than in the winter in Luoyang."

"Why?" Zheng Gongchu asked curiously.

"This is because they are located at both ends of the earth, and the sunlight will not shine directly over and there is no heat. The reason why the terrain is high and cold is because the air is thin and cannot prevent the temperature from spreading, so it is also cold on the plains. Just like clothes, it will be warm if worn thickly."

"I don't understand."

"It's normal not to understand..." Speaking of this, Li Wei suddenly stopped. This time, many Western countries came to envoy the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, and they were nostalgic and reluctant to leave, so they stayed. In addition, there were many missionaries who wanted to preach, and there was another task to translate Western books for Li Wei. The task was arduous, but before this, they had to learn the other party's language and words with some readers of the Tang Dynasty, so that they could accurately translate the meaning of each book in Chinese characters. I heard that construction had begun.

This will broaden the thoughts and insights of the Chinese people. But it is not that Western scientific knowledge is good. According to his memory, ancient Greek civilization also has its limitations. The rapid development of science was later in Ou Hong. The emergence of industrialization brought huge profits to capitalists and promoted the further development of science. At that time, the Qing Dynasty thought that it was in the center of the world, a great country, and was dreaming but not awake..." In other words, these scientific theories were also very backward.

Some of the knowledge that I can remember is much more advanced than the scientific theories of ancient Greece.

In his opinion, the most practical one is mathematics, physics, chemistry, and geography and history are also good, but China has a lot of research on this aspect, either geology, which is also not understood by Li Wei. He almost forgot about quantity and can probably remember some of it, which is equivalent to the level of first and second year in later generations.

But at this level, it is far ahead of everyone in this world.

However, in what name to write it, it still makes people believe it? And it is not easy to write, such as the principles of internal combustion engines. They started to learn in junior high school and electrical science. It is not surprising to learn in later generations, but in the Tang Dynasty, would it be weird to write these principles?

So he said again: "Do you think it's better to understand?"

"think."

"Then you bring the pen."

He brought paper and pen, and Li Wei brought a wooden board, baked it on the fire on the kang, and laid it on his knees with wooden boards, drawing a simple schematic diagram.

I still don't understand it very much, and I have more questions.

Li Wei had no choice but to say, "You don't need to know these reasons. Remember, go south, about the countries in the South China Sea are very popular, and then take the countries in the South China Sea as the dividing line. The colder the more you go to the two sides. But it is different. The hottest area in June is not only the countries in the South China Sea, but in the Lingnan area, and the earth is running. At this time, it is the central area of ​​Rizhao. In the twelfth lunar month, the land in the north is because Rizhao is the most inclined, the south will be hot, and the north will be cold. The seamen are afraid of taking risks, so they just go to the small country, the country of Jiaying and volcanic countries, referring to the Java Islands.

The areas of various countries. Otherwise, if you go southeast and reach the ocean, you will see where you are close to the south, which is exactly the opposite of the weather. It is hot in winter and cold in summer. However, as the seamen expand, they will reach the area where they will sooner or later. Then the higher the trees and waters are, because the humidity is kept, the temperature difference between day and night is not large. However, the Gobi Desert and desert lack the insulation of fire and wood. It is hot during the day, but the night is very cold. Therefore, the people of the Western Regions have a saying that they wear fur coats in the morning and wear gauze at night, and eat watermelons around the stove."

"That's right," I don't know if I really understand.

Li Wei no longer interprets the scriptures, it is mainly strange.

Then I picked up the brush and wrote it on paper. It seemed that I had to take time to write something. I didn’t know how to write, and I thought about a lot of things, and I didn’t dare to spend too much energy to write this knowledge with the words that people of this era could accept. I had to write mathematics.

Mathematics is not weird, but only talks about calculation. The Imperial College also specially opened a department of arithmetic.

However, mathematics is the mother of all sciences, whether physics or chemistry, all subsequent calculations are inseparable from mathematical formulas.

It is still very strange, which means writing down the junior high school mathematics knowledge in later generations and causing a sensation in this era. It may be a certain degree of weirdness within the acceptable range, which is a gift from heaven, and it will also be helpful to yourself.

"What is this?" Wei Yue asked curiously as he looked at a group of winding small poles.

"This is an Arabic numeral, and this letter is the language of a Western country. It is used in arithmetic and can be simplified. Just like this time I interrogated the envoys of Western countries, we have to take it over if others have strengths. In this way, we can ensure that we are always stronger than others. Take a look, for example, what is the equivalent of 301 by 299?"

"I'm going to calculate Meng."

"No need," Li Wei wrote a square formula and said, "It's equal to 89,999. That's that simple."

It’s not that simple. First of all, he remembers that there are not twenty chemical elements, and then the root form is even more impossible to remember. But being able to write some of them can help future scholars avoid many bent feet.

Also, we must correct China's idea of ​​treating industry and commerce as a lowly. Without merchants, the country cannot be truly rich and will always rely on the pitiful land, and the evil cycle of generations continues. Then there are workers, not only workers, but actually many craftsmen. They are primitive scientific and technological workers, but their status is too low to study with peace of mind, which means that they cannot produce too many scientists.

I thought the Tang Dynasty was very powerful, such a powerful dynasty. What did you do to prosper? But when I came to this era, I realized how wrong the idea was. There were too many things to do.

I wrote carefully, but did not write about the knowledge of junior high school, but wrote some formulas for decimals, and then listed them and made some simple explanations.

"Yes, yes," Wan'er was the first to see it and said in surprise: "So that's how you settle the accounts."

Although she is smart, she uses mathematics to settle accounts, and she can also say that although Li Wei is sweating on his head.

Thinking carefully, he wrote four pieces of paper. The eunuch outside came to report: "There is a man outside who claimed to be the confidant of the Empress Dowager Tubo, and asked to see the chasing."

The information was far away and the information was very backward. However, the incident of the new Tubo Zanpu ascended the throne was spread to Luoyang at this time. Few people in the Tang Dynasty could know the truth, and they all breathed a sigh of relief. After the death of Tubo Zanpu, the southwest border could be safe for the time being. At this time, both East and West Turks were in chaos, but they did not want Tubo to make trouble again. For this reason, they did not expect anything else.

However, Li Wei was really relieved. He had some feelings for the Wulu family. The couple had been kind to a hundred days a night. Moreover, they had been a couple for hundreds of days and his son. I don’t know how she did it. Not only did she succeed in inheriting Zanpu, but there was no big trouble in Tubo.
Chapter completed!
