Surrender!

Why did they surrender as soon as the fighting started?

Surrendered so quickly?

Just when Li Fugui ordered the gunners to continue shelling, he saw someone in the smoke holding a white flag, waving it as he walked.

They surrendered!

Can these people have some backbone?

After fighting for so many years, he has never seen anyone as spineless as these people. If you want to fight, just fight hard and let everyone have fun.

With your unclear mind, where do you want to put everyone's interest? In fact, these children have been looking forward to a fight with you for several months. It's good for you that you actually surrendered, or not?

man?

At that moment, he seemed to understand why the Zhengde Emperor released the captured Prince Ning back. Why was he not satisfied with the beating?

If he had a choice, he himself would want to drive back those who raised the white flag, and then have a good fight with them again.

So damn spineless.

Not only Li Fugui felt this way, but the children also felt the same way. For these children who were thinking and looking forward to a good fight, they never thought that their first fight would end in such an anticlimactic manner.

.

Of course they won't give in. After all, in their imagination, the first battle in their lives should be a bloody battle filled with all kinds of bloody memories.

But luckily now, they haven't fired a few shots yet. The other side just surrendered.

Oh my god. These people are so spineless. Not only do they have no courage, they are just a bunch of weaklings.

"Instructor, they surrendered so quickly, they couldn't be cheating!"

"Yes, let me see, we have only been fighting for more than ten minutes..."

"It's only been ten minutes, I thought it was already an hour..."

"How did these people surrender so quickly?"

…

If Stanovoev heard this, he would be so angry that he would vomit blood. He would not surrender, but their cannons would explode.

Indeed, the damage caused by those artillery shells that exploded when they hit the ground or even exploded in the air completely overturned the imagination of these Cossacks. They relied on artillery and matchlock guns during the Eastern Expedition from Europe to East Asia, but they never thought that

One day, they will be bombarded by artillery and they will not even have the strength to fight back. But in the blink of an eye, less than 60 people are left in the 134-person team. Even among them, one-third of them are still affected by the cannon.

Injured.

Where were the others? More than half of them were killed on the spot, and a small number of others either had their arms or legs blown off, and it was almost impossible to survive.

How to fight such a battle? Either way, everyone will die.

However, Stanovoev certainly couldn't hear this. Just when Dzerzhinsky ordered to surrender, he jumped into the river regardless of everything, grabbed a log and escaped along the river.

.

In fact, even if he heard it, he would definitely not understand it. He could not understand it, and even Dzerzhinsky and the others did not understand the language of these "Tatars".

"It's the Semu man!"

Finally, when Dzerzhinsky and the others approached, Song Yu and the others discovered that the so-called "savages" were actually a group of lustful people.

"Who are you?"

"Rakshasa, Rakshasa..."

Dzerzhinsky, who was kneeling on the ground, tried hard to explain the direction he had come from. Seeing the confused expressions of these Tatars, he tried hard to explain using the Mongolian he knew.

"I, Eluo are stupid, Eluo is dead..."

"Eluo died?"

Yu Wenjie pushed Li Fugui and others away, bent down and asked.

"Are you Oros?"

"Mr. Yu knows about Russia?"

"I know, I know, I asked you to read more and read more. Are the books in the library regarded as decorations? There is this country recorded in "Staff Side Chronicles", called the Rus Kingdom, or the Rakshasa Kingdom, but because we

There used to be Mongolia between them, and because the first R sound in Russia was a retroflex sound that Mongolians couldn't pronounce, the Mongolians had to add a vowel in front to pronounce it. This way, it was naturally introduced into Chinese.

The transliteration is "Russian", yes, that's it, "Hai Guo Tu Zhi" introduces these."

Just as Yu Wenjie was explaining triumphantly, Li Fugui asked.

"So do you speak Russian?"

For a moment, Yu Wenjie was stunned, Russian?

Who would?

He was so proud in front of the students just now, but he didn't feel weak and said it directly.

"I don't know how to do it, but there must be someone in Dalian who can. There is a Tongwen Museum there, and there are people who specialize in learning Europa dialect and writing. There must be someone in Dalian who can."

In fact, all dynasties in China have paid attention to the cultivation of translation talents. As early as the Shang Dynasty, translators who were good at "languages ​​from all directions" were reused as interpretation officials. "Book of Rites" records: "The east is called "Shi", and the south is called "Xiang"

, in the west it is called Di Di, in the north it is called Yi."

The meaning of this passage is that translators who understand Eastern languages ​​are called "Ji", those who are familiar with Southern languages ​​are called "Xiang", those who master Western languages ​​are called "Didi", and those who are familiar with Northern languages ​​are called "Yi".

During the Zhou Dynasty, translators were collectively called "Xiangxu". "Xiangxu" was responsible for conveying the emperor's edicts to "Di, Man, Rong, and Yi", safeguarding the emperor's rule over other countries, vassals, and states, and appeasing the four directions.

of princes.

During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the imperial court established "Dahonglu", which was in charge of the affairs of the border princes and responsible for external liaison. The person in charge of "Dahonglu" was called "Translator Ling". In order to cultivate translation talents, during the Han Dynasty, the government also established a special

According to the "Book of Han" records: "Enter elementary school at the age of eight to learn the calligraphy of Liujia and Wufang." The "five directions" here refer to the places where "Di, Man, Rong, and Yi" lived.

Subsequently, similar institutions were set up in the Jin, Tang, and Song dynasties. In the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty ordered Ying Tianfu to establish the "Huitong Pavilion" to compile reference books such as "Huayi Translation" and to cultivate foreign language talents. From this,

It can be seen that we Han people originally see the world with open eyes.

Well, that is to say, when the Manchu and Qing dynasties arrived, they just invaded the Central Plains with barbarians. As a result, they became more arrogant than the previous Central Plains dynasties. They called themselves the Celestial Dynasty and closed their eyes to the world. In contrast, the people of the Ming Dynasty treated the West similarly.

They are open. Their openness is not only aimed at exchanges with traditional Eastern regions. When the Age of Discovery came, they also opened their arms to Western civilization with a studious mind.

Different from what many people imagine in the other world, as early as the Apocalypse Period, the "Zhi Fang Wai Ji" mentioned many major countries in Europe, including Ukraine, Scandinavian countries, Greece and other Ming and Ming Dynasty countries.

The description of the humanities, physical geography, and geography of a country with no contact between Korea and North Korea is basically correct. The idea of ​​Europe's Europa was also pioneered by the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty's understanding of the world outside of China exceeded Zhu Guoqiang's imagination.

Even when he set up the "Tongwen Museum" to train foreign language talents to translate foreign books, he was surprised to find that there were so many people who knew foreign languages, and there were even many people in his own country who knew foreign languages.

For example, Chen Yujie, Sun Hewu, Sun Hejing, influenced by Xu Guangqi, Sun Yuanhua and others, they can not only speak Latin, but also use Portuguese and Spanish. In addition to them, there are dozens of people in Tongwen Museum who can speak Portuguese or Spanish.

Zhu Guoqiang did not even deliberately recruit these people. After he proposed the establishment of this organization, more than fifty of his staff members volunteered to join the army.

This simply gave Zhu Guoqiang a "creepy" feeling. When Li Changzhu and the others, and even Fang Yizhi, could speak proficiently in Portuguese, Spanish, and even French, he even felt like he was in the twentieth century.

Wrong, if nothing else, even in the officialdom of the late Qing Dynasty, except for the navy, no yamen could have so many people who could speak foreign languages.

Why do they know foreign languages?

For example, Li Changzhu was educated at home. His father was Li Zhizao. Matteo Ricci’s friends participated in the drawing of "The Complete Map of Kunyu and Ten Thousand Kingdoms". Li Zhizao was shocked by the vastness of the world on the map, so he concentrated on Western learning. In fact, many people in the late Ming Dynasty

Everyone is like this. They either got beaten before they thought of learning it, just like the Folang machine gun. In the first year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty, He Ru, who was then patrolling Guangdong, saw this kind of thing on a Portuguese merchant ship.

As soon as he saw it, he was surprised and said, "Oh, this thing, we don't have it in the Ming Dynasty. No, the Ming Dynasty must have it." So he secretly recruited craftsmen on the ship to imitate it, and soon it became better than the previous one.

Active learning comes from strong curiosity. Almost every European missionary who came to China has described the strong "curiosity" of the Chinese, just like Matteo Ricci, whether in Nanchang or in

In Nanjing or Beijing, "people's curiosity seems to have gone crazy." There is an endless stream of visitors, just wanting to know about Western things. Scholars, officials, and even relatives of the emperor from all over the country are full of Western culture and technology.

He was curious. Even people who could not meet him in remote areas like Yunnan and Ningxia would communicate with him through letters. He received many letters, many of whom he did not know at all, but were happy to discuss Catholicism with him in their letters.

, technology and other aspects of the topic. Of course, there are more discussions on technology and other aspects.

After all... this is an era of "collapse of rituals and music", an era where people are proud of not reading the Four Books and the Five Classics. After all, as early as the Zhengde Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, scholars regarded knowing the Five Classics as pedantic. By the Wanli Dynasty, scholars were

I'm embarrassed to say that I like reading. I just felt that stereotyped writing was useless, so I looked for another way out in my thinking and began to pursue the practical value of knowledge extensively.

As a result, the fresh and novel Western science was like a bolt of lightning piercing the night sky, allowing the scholars who had caused disdain to associate with pedantic scholars to finally find a way to vent their strong thirst for knowledge. Moreover, in the process of the rise of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, in the process of the rise of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the relationship with the Manchu Qing Dynasty

During the battle, the knowledgeable people in the late Ming Dynasty realized that the only way to "control the barbarians" was to strengthen their weapons and equipment. Therefore, they studied enthusiastically and introduced Western firearms. In order to improve the performance of fire energy, they also actively studied Western firearms.

Mathematics and technology. This kind of initiative is completely different from the passive introduction of weapons in the late Qing Dynasty.

It is the most valuable thing for a nation to have such a strong curiosity, and it is even the fundamental reason why this nation has been standing in the east of the world for the past few thousand years. Looking at the late Qing Dynasty, the Chinese people faced the challenges faced by the Manchus under the enslavement of the Qing Dynasty.

The fear, hostility, and even ignorant rejection of new things such as foreigners, trains, telegraphs, etc. make people wonder why they are here? This detail also clearly tells the world that under the hundreds of years of enslavement by the Manchus, the quality of the Chinese people has deteriorated

How much has it fallen?

In the past, no one could tell him this answer, but now, Zhu Guoqiang already knows the answer.

However, none of this will happen now. At least in this world, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has been driven away far away. Just when people were breathing a sigh of relief for the defeat of the northern barbarians, other news suddenly appeared, and people in Dalian immediately

There was a sensation in Tongwen Hall.

"The Rus Kingdom has invaded the northern border area!"
