Nan Juyi said: "Where is there any news that can be heard by us? It's not that the cabinet and the Ministry of Railways are discussing. In my opinion, I'm afraid that this matter will be more likely."

Mao Wenlong sighed and said, "I hope so. The area of ​​Penglaizhou is too large. So far, it has not controlled the end of this continent. It is probably another territory similar to Xinming Island.

In this case, if there is no railway and simply relying on horses to carry out transportation, it will probably cause people to be exhausted."

Nanjuyi also said: "It's not just a matter of transportation. Once the population increases, it's easier to think more.

Just like Annan, once the rebellion is to be suppressed, this speed is crucial.”

Mao Wenlong and Nan Juyi were both nonsense. Anyway, it was already winter, so it was not realistic to sail on the sea to return to the Ming Dynasty at this time. They could only wait until the spring was over before going back. Naturally, there was plenty of time to talk.

As for the two brothers Zhu Cihuang and Zhu Cihuang, they were secretly shocked along the way.

Since leaving the port base, we walked south along the mountains. On the way, we have seen more than a hundred Jingguans, big and small, although the largest one is only more than a thousand people, this thing is Jingguan, not a small mound.

Zhang Kewang, who had just recovered from the injury, rode on the horse and followed Zhu Ciying and his two brothers forward together, grinning from time to time due to the pain.

Looking at the two brothers Zhu Ciyang and Zhu Ciyang, Zhang Kewang said: "Your Highness, go straight to the south from here. It is expected that by the beginning of spring, we will be able to reach the base of those English barbarians."

Zhu Ciyang said, "The English barbarians won't mention them for now. Anyway, they are already meat on the chopping board, so they can't escape.

But what kind of French barbarians suffered such a big loss here, and they could endure it?"

Zhang Kewang said: "We will talk about whether they can tolerate it later. Now, it is confirmed by the navigation of these barbarians."

Zhu Cixuan said curiously: "What's the matter?"

Zhang Kewang said: "By the charts of those barbarians and the charts that they had obtained from the hands of those Franchise barbarians, we can see by comparison that the ground we are stepping on is indeed spherical.

In other words, the so-called Huntian theory in Zhang Heng's "A Note on the Armillary Sky Sphere" and Wang Fan's "A Note on the Armillary Sky Sphere" during the Three Kingdoms is correct. We start from Kure Island and go eastward. After going around a big circle, we will return to Kure Island again."

Zhu Ciyang nodded and said, "This is nothing strange. There are people in the Royal Academy saying that the planet under our feet is circling around the sun. It is said that even a lot of evidence has been found. Who cares what he says?"

Zhang Kewang also nodded: "No one cares about the Ming Dynasty, so I am happy to put Europa. It is said that many barbarians have been burned to death."

After curling his lips, Zhu Ciying said, "Change it. Can barbarians call them barbarians if they don't play with fire? What's the matter with us? The most important thing now is to find those English barbarians as soon as possible.

Otherwise, no one of us would have a good life. Where did we get so much time to worry about the barbarians?”

Zhang Kewang said: "I guess we can reach the English barbarians before spring and then come back before the end of summer."

After calculating the time in his mind, Zhu Ciying said, "How many barbarians are there over there? Calculate based on your itinerary, wouldn't it take a few days to clean up the barbarians?"

Zhang Kewang said: "It is impossible to clean it up completely. After all, those barbarians are not too few. In addition, the native natives here will probably not be able to clean it up in less than three to five years."

After thinking about it, Zhu Cixuan said, "Then let's stay here for a few more months to avoid going back and getting beaten. However, the time cannot be delayed too long. My sister-in-law probably should have a baby in a few months. She must go back before the child is born, right?"

It has to be admitted that Xingzi is still a very skilled and traditional Japanese woman with gentleness and gentleness. After being trained by the Ming nannies, Xingzi can also capture Zhu Cihuang's heart and is no longer as disgusted as she was at the beginning.

A smile appeared on his face, and Zhu Cihuang said, "It's okay, there will be six or seven months left. This period of time is enough for us to clean up a group of barbarians here first.

You don’t know that in winter, the broken place in Sakhalin Island can freeze to death. If there were no earth fire dragons and warm kangs, the ghost place would not be able to live in."

...

After reading the information in his hand for a long time, Wang Xingguo didn't bother to go to Xun Think Tank to help deduce it, and hurriedly went to Xun Emperor Chongzhen.

This time the matter was too big. Almost all the plans in Mughal were disrupted, and almost all the plans made were scrapped or had to be started in advance.

Emperor Chongzhen was also very distressed after seeing the information.

Shashua's funny guy was actually killed by Ozerab? And this guy was crazy in the end before he died, and directly sent a large number of dead soldiers to assassinate Ozerab and Daro Sicho.

Although the final assassination was not successful, it successfully aroused the anger of Ozeranbu and Daroschijo. The two of them went on an expedition to attack Shashua almost at the same time, and continued to carry out retaliatory massacre operations.

The behavior of these bastards far exceeded the original expectations of the Ming Dynasty.

Whether it is the deduction of think tanks or the military chess deduction in the Governor's Office of the Five Army, it is said that Ozerab and Shashua should have joined forces to fight Daro Sicho to death, rather than Ozerab and Daro Sicho to fight Shashua to death.

This is a fucking thing, I don’t play by the rules!

Emperor Chongzhen, who was extremely distressed, ordered people to spread Zhang Zhiji and others to enter the palace, and ordered people to send the information to the think tank.

Although the calculation is wrong, it is not a big deal. At worst, it will make certain improvements to such situations in the future.

For example, make plans to die together, or plan to die suddenly.

Isn’t the existence of think tanks deducing these countless possibilities?

After reading the information, Zhang Zhiji was also very distressed: "Your Majesty, it is often said that it is impossible to accommodate two tigers in one mountain. Now the three-legged tripod has been broken. The entire Mughal will continue to be in chaos, and one of Daluschicho or Ozelangbu will be defeated."

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said, "Compared with Ozelangbu, I hope that Daroschijo can win in this game.

In addition, Yunnan and Myanmar are also going to start preparing. Once Daroschijo and Ozelangbu decide the winner, our Ming Dynasty will send troops directly."

Zhang Zhiji said: "In fact, we can also let Amin and Mangourtai's army go south and west first, directly threaten Ozeranbu and Daroschijo, and force their families to stop the truce."

Seeing Emperor Chongzhen nodding, Zhang Zhiji continued: "Once the two families discovered that Amin and Mangourtai's army was moving south and west, they would inevitably defend together after the truce. My Ming Dynasty didn't even need to fight them. As long as they dragged on like this, they would sooner or later until they collapsed."

This is the Cold War? Star Wars Ming version?

After nodding, Emperor Chongzhen turned his attention to others: "What do you think of me, my dear friends?"

Lu Xiangsheng bowed and said, "I will stick to my previous view. First take down the Penglai Continent, then concentrate troops, push the Mughals in one fell swoop, and then go straight westward to take down the Ottoman."

Li Yan opposed it: "If it is based on what Master Lu Ge said, it is certainly safe to be safe, but it will take too long to delay it?"

Lu Xiangsheng said: "What if it takes longer to delay? Amin and Mangourtai's troops were approaching, and Daroschijo and Ozerab had to consider the threat from the rear and had to increase their troops and put a large amount of national strength on military expenditure.

Now the people of Mughal have already shown signs of war everywhere. As long as they continue to drag on, they will not be afraid of the chaos in the Mughal country."

Emperor Chongzhen suddenly spoke, "By the way, how is the Beishan Jurchen tribe?"

Wang Xingguo, who had just returned, bowed and said, "I'm telling you that Liu Xingzuo's troops have advanced towards the extreme north and are clearing out the barbarians from the extreme north to the east."

Zhang Zhiji also bowed and said, "If we follow the returns of Liu Xingzuo's tribe and Xia Ezhe's tribe, we are afraid that before the winter next year, we will go directly north from the capital of the Ming Dynasty to the extreme north, and then clean up."

By then, Liu Xingzuo's troops will once again be separated from Xia'erzhe's troops and Bater, and will advance directly westward in the form of three armies to kill the possible barbarians along the way."

After Emperor Chongzhen nodded, he began to think about it in his heart.

Flowers are covered with brocade and fire are not considered good words. However, the current situation in the Ming Dynasty is actually similar to these two words.

Is the Ming Dynasty stable? Stable, as stable as an old dog!

But in fact, all contradictions are forced to be suppressed or transferred, rather than really no contradiction at all.

There are now three battlefields in the Ming Dynasty, one on the Penglai continent, another on the north of Beishan Mountain, and one on the other side of Africa.

Although there was no difficulty in fighting on the third line, and even had the time to open up the fourth combat battlefield, the impact on the people of the Ming Dynasty was also real.

Just like the construction of railways, all the projects underway now account for the most common proportion are military-purpose lines, while very few are for civilian use.

And food.

Although the coldest time of winter has passed and the temperature is rising little by little, which means that the climate of the Little Glacier is slowly ending, in fact, food problems have always been the most troublesome problem in the Ming Dynasty.

Before, there were several large grain producers in Nanyang who were supporting him, especially after killing Annan, he made a fortune. But what about now?

With the implementation of immigration and real borders, the entire Ming Dynasty population showed a strange phenomenon of vast land and sparse population, even if the people of the Ming Dynasty were eager to have children.

The consequence of the vast land and sparse population is that a large amount of land is idle, and after the grain is transported from Jiaozhi and other places, if you want to transport it to the inland of the Ming Dynasty, it will cost a greater price than before, unless the entire Ming Dynasty is covered with railways.

Then the problem returns to the initial problem. Nowadays, railways tend to be used for military purposes rather than civilian purposes!

In addition to population issues, the number and quality of officials also became another bottleneck restricting the development of the Ming Dynasty.

As early as the 18th year of Chongzhen, the Imperial College had already divided the universities separately, and it was no longer a teaching of the way of becoming an official, but instead taught the classified subjects of the Royal College for students to study before entering the Royal College.

Of course, it is not mandatory to enter the Royal Academy. Basically, the students choose to learn the civil and military skills, and the ideas of goods and the imperial family still restrict these students.

It can be foreseen that when the first batch of students in Chongzhen graduated in the 22nd year, a large number of students would choose to enter the Royal Academy, and only those who were selected could flow into the public.

The problem is that the Royal Academy has now reached a crazy point of lack of manpower. I wish I could steal people from the Imperial College now. How could I allow these people to flow into the public?

In addition to the reorganized Imperial College, the imperial examinations have also been officially changed.

The Department of Gewu, Minglu, and Mingsuan were officially cancelled.

The Department of Geophysiology was completely incorporated into the university, and these students were prepared for the Royal College and the influx of talents in the future.

Minglu and Mingsuanji have embarked on a completely different path from Mingjingji.

The Mingjing Department was also incorporated into the university, but it had to participate in the biennial imperial examination after graduation.

After the celebrity ceremony, the Jinshi who passed the imperial examination will enter the eight departments and eight subjects for rotation and study. Those who pass the qualification will be transferred to officials, and those who fail will continue to be like minor officials in these departments.

Students in the two subjects of Minglu and Mingsuan directly have the capital to become minor officials after graduating from university, either seeking a way out or obeying the distribution, going to the military office to do some secretary's work, or go to the local government to be county magistrates, chief clerks, and officialdoms such as the classics.

Moreover, compared with the previous county magistrates and chief clerks, students in Minglu and Mingsuan have a huge advantage.

Although they were all eighth and ninth-rank sesame officials like the previous chief clerks and county magistrates, they all graduated from Beijing University and were classmates with the Jinshi in the Ming Dynasty.

The previous chief clerks and county magistrates did not have this advantage. If they wanted to go further, they would not have much hope to rely on Beijing inspections. They could only hope to participate in the selection when immigrating overseas and then get promoted.

There is also the south, as the place where the literary style of the Ming Dynasty is so prosperous, now it is also preparing to make its own voice again, and even someone has started to organize the newspapers!

In short, there are a lot of messy problems, which makes Emperor Chongzhen very upset. Now there is another Mughal problem, which makes Emperor Chongzhen even more distressed.
