Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 748 Exploration

"My son has no intention of becoming a king. It's not bad to stay in Luoyang. I will benefit a lot from being in the company of famous people every day. Besides, my son is not that kind of material." Li Yi was honest.

"So it's not you who is causing trouble behind his back?" Li Yue stared into his eyes.

"Father, you have high regard for your son." Li Yi's eyes did not dodge.

"What do you want, you can just say it. In the future, Daliang's territory is thousands of miles away. Isn't it easy to be crowned a king outside? My father has neglected you in recent years. It's my fault." Li Yue tried.

The fact that so many people petitioned to confer him the title of King of Wu shows that his network of connections was relatively wide.

Either he was pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, or someone was playing a trick and sent him up to provide cover for the real master.

"If my father said this, I would be frightened. I will definitely live out my dream, make friends with celebrities all over the world, and live a happy life." Li Yi was still flawless, and even his expression did not change.

But Li Yue could already feel that there was a gap between father and son, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, as long as it doesn't violate national laws, let it go."

"Thank you, Father."

Li Yi couldn't do anything else, but she gave birth to four imperial grandchildren and two imperial granddaughters in the past two years, which can be regarded as spreading the branches and leaves of the clan.

As for who is causing trouble secretly, Li Yue is not worried. In such a large country, various interests are intricately related, and it is abnormal for no one to stir up trouble.

The situation is still under control and the prince's position cannot be shaken.

The increase in naval investment and the expedition to the grassland a year and a half later met with some obstacles at the court, but in the end it was passed.

Not to mention far away, just the resources transported back from Liaodong, Baekje, Japan and other places have driven the development of You, Ping, Cang, Qing and other states.

This does not include the harvest from fishing and salt drying.

In the future, the two prefectures of Jiaoguang and Guangzhou will be recovered, and the grain, sea pearls, seafood, etc. there will also be transported back to the inland by sea.

China has never been opposed to opening up the ocean. At its peak in the Western Han Dynasty, it had a fleet of more than 200,000 sailors and more than 4,000 warships. It was also equipped with various nautical astrology books to determine the direction based on the stars. ,weather.

Such as "Star Divination in the Sea", "Miscellaneous Matters of the Five Stars in the Sea", "Five Stars in the Sea Order and Reverse", "Twenty-eight Stars in the Sea" and so on.

Even more impressive is the "Island Algorithm" written by Liu Hui, a great mathematician of Cao Wei. As can be seen from the name, it measures topographic and sea distances.

The Literature Museum also found a story from the Han Dynasty. During the Han Dynasty, envoys set out from the Leizhou Peninsula and passed through the South China Sea to the Huangzhi and the Kingdom of Chengbu. The scholars investigated and speculated that the Kingdom of Huangzhi should be on the southeast coast of Tianzhu. If not, it will be the Sri Lanka of future generations.

What surprised Li Yue even more was that the HNA Division was sorting out the old files of the previous dynasty and found a book called "Foreign Objects" written in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which had extremely detailed records of the topography of the South China Sea. When outsiders ride on large ships, they are imprisoned with iron leaves. When they reach this pass, this magnet cannot pass."...

In fact, if you think about it, you will know that so many envoys from the Han Dynasty were actually explorers of Chinese civilization, and their footprints were certainly not limited to the Western Regions.

To the east, we explored the peninsula and the Japanese Kingdom, to the southwest we explored Tianzhu, to the south we inspected the South China Sea and Southeast Asian countries, and to the west, we reached even further areas...

Li Yue personally felt that China had completed its first geographical exploration during the Han Dynasty.

China has never lacked the spirit of exploration.

You can see the clues from the map. A simple example is that from the Central Plains to the Hezhong area, you have to climb mountains, wade through deserts and Gobi deserts, and face various barbaric tribes. It is a close call.

The difficulty is much more difficult than traveling from Europe to the Hezhong area. However, despite this, many Han envoys spent more than ten years without forgetting their original intention and mission, traveling back and forth over desperate situations, bringing back various fruits and crops, so that they could take root in China... …

Now that someone has tried it before, things are much easier to handle.

Just follow the footsteps of the Han Dynasty.

Li Yue rushed to Shangwu Hall, where 373 disciples were about to graduate and were summoned. Li Yue asked people to hang up the world map he made. In his previous life, he was not a geography major, and it was inaccurate in many places, but it was enough for enlightenment and direction.

"The future of Liang is on the sea, the future of China is on the sea, and your future is also on the sea. Our ancestors and martyrs traveled in all directions, which made the two Han Dynasties strong. In the past, there were Han envoys, and now there should be Liang envoys. I am here to ask, Is there anyone who dares to imitate Zhang Qian, Ban Chao, Fu Jiezi, Gan Ying, and Su Wu?" Li Yue said impassionedly on the stage.

Although the Sixteen Kingdoms, Southern and Northern Dynasties were an era full of suffering, suffering also sharpened people's spirit and will.

"willing!"

The audience said in unison, and more than two hundred heroic young people immediately stood up.

The deeds of Zhang Qian, Ban Chao, Fu Jiezi, Gan Ying, and Su Wu were originally part of the curriculum of Shangwu Hall.

"I, the son of Daliang, will not be inferior to the great men!" Li Yue felt that he had opened the door of an era with his own hands. He immediately promoted these sons and ministers to officials, and each of them was given a Bailianhuan First Sword with the inscription "Emissary of Daliang" engraved on it. A pair of bronze medals and a walking belt.

During the Great Chaos of the Sixteen Kingdoms, the barbarians moved eastward, and their cultures merged with each other. The wader belt and round-collar robe have long been in existence.

Hu Xia doesn't care about good things, he just takes them and uses them. Li Yue never has any psychological burden, and he is not willing to rest on his laurels. Civilization also needs to be inclusive.

"Zhao Heng, open up the world and benefit China!"

"I will fulfill my mission!"

"Wang Sheng..." Li Yue personally encouraged everyone and encouraged them.

When I read the name of the twenty-seventh person, I was stunned, "Li Jun."

"I'm here!" A fifteen-year-old boy stood in front of him. His facial features were 80% similar to Li Yue's, but he was more energetic. He was Li Jun, the ninth son of Li Yue, and his mother Tuoba Yushu.

The other disciples, guards, and officials all around looked over.

"Do you dare to open up the world to benefit me, China?" Li Yue said sharply.

Other people's children can throw their lives and blood, and so can your own children.

"Why don't you dare? As a royal family, you should be the first in the world!" Li Jun said loudly.

Li Yue felt relieved and felt proud to have such a son, which showed that his education over the years was not wrong.

The royal family is not just a moth lying on the country's land, and they should bear greater responsibilities.

No matter how capable you are, the key is whether you have the courage.

And abilities can also be developed.

"Okay!" Li Yue patted his shoulder and suddenly discovered that he was half a head taller than him and had a tall and muscular figure.

Li Jun raised the ring-headed sword and the bronze medal of the envoy, and someone immediately chanted: "South Vietnam killed the Han envoy, and slaughtered it into nine counties; King Wan killed the Han envoy, and the first county was Beique; North Korea killed the Han envoy, and killed it immediately!"

The sound grew louder and louder.

The future of a country actually lies with these young men, because they are passionate and passionate. When they get older, they often care about the gains and losses of various interests.
