Chapter 279: Chaos in Guanzhong
As for Sima Tai, King Yan didn't know much, but his son Sima Yue was very famous. King Liang Sima Tong was Zhou Chu's enemy. Sima Ji thought about it and thought it would be better to remind Zhou Chu. It's right that everyone would still turn around if they were missing in the world, but he would have to make up for it. He was stabbed to death in the back, so he couldn't stand it.
"There are so many kings every day that I can't remember it." Sima Ji secretly complained to him that he had no objection to the royal kings, and even had no objection to the King Liang who deliberately killed Zhou Chu.
In the court, as an important minister of a country, it is impossible to be honest and do nothing wrong in your life. Sometimes it is understandable that there is no good person in the entire royal family, including himself. A hero who hates evil is often a bandit in the eyes of the court. Wu Song enjoys his grudges, and there are many innocent people who die under his hands.
Therefore, in this matter, one cannot judge whether a person is good or bad from one thing, and a person himself is a polyhedral.
Liu Hui died of illness. This was the first news that Sima Ji heard after returning to Jicheng. In his eyes, Liu Hui was much more important than Sikong, the King of Xia Pi. After learning this news, Sima Ji refused to speak for a long time. Liu Hui was poor and displaced all his life, born in a chaotic world, witnessing the chaos in the world. It may be a good thing to die of illness now.
However, before his death, Liu Hui used the last time to record what he had learned in his life and left it to Sima Ji. While looking through Sima Ji, he sighed, and a tear fell on the corner of his eyes.
"Husband, what's wrong with you?" Yang Xin called softly. This was the first time she had seen Sima Ji so sad. No matter who was praised by anyone, the King of Yan was a cold-blooded person. Yang Xin thought it was the case before today, but now this scene made her unable to figure it out. Her man would be sentimental?
"I... may never find someone like Liu Hui again, I can't find it." Sima Ji looked up and showed a smile that was ugly than crying. "There are many people in the world who can write gorgeous articles. They can also be called talented, but in my eyes, but Liu Hui only has one, just one! No more. Have a good job during the funeral, and he will definitely be famous all over the world in the future."
"I will go and do it, husband, don't be sad." Yang Xin nodded. Although she didn't understand Sima Ji's thoughts, so what? Just do it as you told me.
"According to the teacher's etiquette, the teacher I recognize is the only one who is the Grand Marshal Zhang Hua." Sima Ji lay down tiredly and closed his eyes and ordered that he never forced himself. When encountering sad things, he instinctively wanted to sleep.
But today I really can't sleep. It seems that in Chinese history, some mathematicians will appear only during wars. I can't see them in normal times, such as Liu Hui lived in the Three Kingdoms period, and I don't know if other civilizations are like this.
Sima Ji wondered why Greece was a strange thing in ancient times, and it did not pay attention to practicality and specializes in geometry. Sima Ji remembered that ancient Greek mathematics had a period of time, at least until the Southern and Northern Dynasties. If he settled all the chaos within the Jin Dynasty and led his troops to fight the west, he should have seen scholars from the University of Alexandria.
Even if there are no great mathematicians alive now, the accumulation of hundreds of years of Alexandria University is still there, and Sima Ji has no intention of burning the math hall, but he just wants to absorb some nutrients from it.
The Greek higher education institution, the center of scientific research. It is located in Alexandria, northwest of ancient Egypt. The ancient Egyptian king Ptolemy I planned to build it and was completed by his son Ptolemy II Feradfeffus. It had the largest collection of books and the most complete variety in the world at that time. It contains a large number of literary works from Egypt, Mesopotamia, Phoenicia and other regions in Asia. The school organizes, annotates, translates manuscripts written in various languages, and produces disciplines such as linguistics, literary criticism and systematic grammar, forming the main teaching content of grammar schools and rhetoric schools in the Greek and Roman periods.
There are botanical gardens, zoos, anatomical rooms, astronomical observatories and other various instruments and equipment for scientific research and experiments. Scholars from all over the East and the West, such as Aristarch, Euclid, Archimedes, etc., devote themselves to their studies here. Scholars recruit disciples, teach public lectures, and conduct higher education in a sense.
Maybe you can still see the Egyptian pyramids and sphinxes that were forged in the eyes of civil history scholars. Although he did not know where the forged remarks in Western history came from, he still had to see them with his own eyes if he had the opportunity. But this is not easy. As far as he knows, most of the pyramids and sphinxes should be buried under the sand.
When Liu Hui was buried, all the scouts from Yanshan Camp came out to see them off. When Sima Ji saw these scouts, he suddenly came to his senses. So many years have passed in a blink of an eye. The children who were sent in had grown up. After calculating the time, he understood that it was time to send this group of scouts out.
If the sky is high, birds can fly, these half-aged children should also experience it. The world is so big, and there are places waiting for them to play. If they stay in Yanshan Camp, their development will be very limited in the future.
"It's time to change a group of children. I have exploited the people of the country for many years, so I should give back to them." Sima Ji made up his mind to replace him, so that he could be enough for ten thousand people before the Central Plains melee. Once all these ten thousand people were formed into an army, he could sweep the world and erase all the hidden dangers of the Jin Dynasty.
After history reaches a certain level, it is absolutely impossible to improve this method. It sounds cruel, but melee is inevitable. You can push it back, but it is basically impossible to keep it from happening.
Sima Ji knew this, so he was naturally preparing for it and attacking Goguryeo. The three Hans were just to prevent stabbing in the back. As for those Xianbei, they wanted to join the meat grinder, why did the King of Yan stop it? Anyway, there were many people in the Central Plains, and the winner was still the Central Plains.
The inner historian, chief clerk, record, and recorded everything, standing aside and waiting. Sima Jicai appeared, asked a circle and said lazily, "Has the Great Wall of Youzhou been repaired?"
"It has been built. If the King of Yan wants to see it with his own eyes, this season is not very suitable." Feng Ji quickly replied, "You can wait until winter passes, and then Your Highness can climb the mountain and watch."
"Oh!" Sima Ji refused to comment. This was bad news. You must know that he had just swept the Korean Peninsula. It was time for the labor force to be sufficient, otherwise it would be a pity for the prisoners to perform. What if he was idle and he was so sad that he would resist?
"Write a letter to the Governor of Bingzhou and ask if the repair of the Great Wall of Bingzhou needs people, and don't always collect corvee labor." Sima Ji said in silence for a moment. My territory of Great Jin is so vast, isn't it easy to find some project to do it?
Not to mention the 70,000 to 80,000 prisoners in this battle, even if it was 70,000 or 80, Sima Ji found a job for them without blinking. Who said that only Egypt can build a pyramid? Can the King of Yan build it?
"Yan Yan, the children in Yanshan Camp have grown up. You are looking for five thousand children to come over." Sima Ji Moran turned his head and stared at Yan Yan and said slowly, "This is not difficult to deal with. Remember, don't think it was the last time I snatched the child."
"Yan Yan will definitely do this." Yan Yan lowered his head and took the order, then pushed him aside and waited.
After Sima Ji asked about Fengguo for a moment, he smiled satisfied and let these people go. The remaining problem was family affairs, which were not suitable for public discussion. He could discuss with Yang Xin, such as how many household registrations does Fengguo have now?
This time, Sima Ji got an accurate number, 51,000 households. Five years after he succeeded the King of Yan, Sima Ji's work of accumulating population at all times and finally achieved some gratifying results, doubled the population of his own country.
In addition to the few sons of Emperor Wu, Sima Ji should be regarded as the most powerful royal family. The reward is not only reflected in the population, but also the sweat-blooded horses that have traveled thousands of miles are also full of energy. The mixed-blood horses stocked in Pingzhou have grown up. Even if the horses are adults for three years, even if they are like children from Yanshan Camp, they can only be considered scouts.
Now the number of horses in Pingzhou horse farm has reached more than 40,000. If it takes another five years, Sima Ji doesn’t know how much it can expand, so it should be enough to form a heavy rider.
"After the spring start, should you go to the Jurchen territory with me?" Sima Ji asked with a smile, hugging Yang Xin, "I heard that you are a goddess in the eyes of the Jurchens and are widely respected. If I go there, will there be danger?"
"I don't know either!" Yang Xin stretched out the green onion jade and pointed it at Sima Ji's nose, smiling foolishly, "Why did your highness think about going there? What do you think of so many barbarian tribes?"
"It is now a barbarian land, and it will be a place of the Great Jin Dynasty in the future, so it will not be a barbarian land." Sima Ji smiled and said, "A group of tribes are also quite powerful. If this can be integrated into an army, it should not be underestimated."
For the time being, he can't reach the grassland, so it becomes extremely important to grasp the Northeast. Anyway, you have to grasp one of the Northeast and the grassland, otherwise it will be a bad thing sooner or later. This is especially true for Youzhou.
