"Dear classmates, what I have said today is just a drop in the bucket of the vast world. In fact, this is all I can know and think about." Li Xingchen couldn't wait to teach all the knowledge he knew about astronomy and geography.
But he didn't have the time, let alone did it.
He couldn't really turn the image of the emperor into a god.
Because once the emperor became a god, it would naturally change people's direction from exploring the nature of things and the laws of the world to exploring things with strange powers and chaos, which ultimately led to the deepening of feudal superstition.
Feudal superstition is not something that Li Xingchen doesn’t pay attention to. Every era has its own characteristics. In this era when most of the problems in the world cannot be explained with people’s existing knowledge and cognition, superstition is indeed
A good method, the ruling class can use this method to stabilize the minds of the people, and the people can also use this method to fill their own confusion about unknown issues.
But if thought really wants to develop and progress, then superstition must be broken.
And this process requires one generation after another to explore forward in the field of science bit by bit. This is all Li Xingchen can do for future generations, and even for the entire China.
As long as people in China are willing to follow the research direction he pointed out, they will definitely be able to reach the forefront of the world.
Walking out of the school, Li Xingchen heard a loud explosion behind him.
One stone stirs up thousands of waves.
For these young students, the world is vast, and they themselves are full of curiosity about the world. Of course, this world does not simply refer to the mountains, rivers and people we see, but also includes things that cannot be seen.
For example, the laws of the world's operation include people's birth, old age, illness and death.
Li Xingchen's words undoubtedly made them realize for the first time how little they knew about the world, and naturally they had more desire to explore a broader world.
"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Kuaiji. The Liu family in Kuaiji rebelled and killed the governor of Kuaiji and twelve local officials. All the soldiers in the Kuaiji countryside fell into the control of the Liu family. Now there are wars going up in several counties around Kuaiji!" Li
Ping said urgently.
"Finally someone couldn't sit still anymore." Li Xingchen sneered.
He had already known the news that the Liu family was going to rebel, but he didn't know the specific time. In response to the situation in Kuaiji that had been intensifying before, Li Xingchen had already made arrangements. He dispatched a troop of troops from Jiangling.
It had already entered the Gan River before, then turned eastward and plunged directly into Qiantang from the south side of Taihu Lake. The purpose was to cut off the connection between Kuaiji and Wu County.
The Han army in the south was also heading north one after another, led by Luo Yi, leaving Fuzhou in the north and heading straight into Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
At the same time, the Han troops in Jiankang Prefecture also gathered one after another and went south together with the Han troops in Jingkou.
In addition, the navy has also been mobilized one after another. From the Dajiang River to Taihu Lake and then to the Fuchun River, the water surfaces on which transportation in the south depends are all blocked by naval vessels.
Although the number of Han troops in Jiangnan is not large, they are not easy to mess with.
What's more, there are white robes behind the Han army.
Wujun is the center of Jiangnan, and Kuaiji is the center of Yue. The grain output of these two places has supported half of the Han Dynasty, so Li Xingchen will never allow any trouble to occur here.
"The spring plowing has just begun, and these people are causing trouble. They really know how to choose the time." Li Xingchen sneered, "Since the first drop of blood has been shed, don't blame me for being ruthless. I passed the order, summoned all officials, and ordered Jiangnan to
All departments, attack as planned!"
Li Ping immediately agreed.
The gentlemen from Jinling Academy who were following Li Xingchen originally planned to give something to His Majesty, but when they heard the news, they were a little surprised for a while.
Li Xingchen looked back at them and said lightly: "If the blood falls, then the only possibility is that the blood (harmony) will flow into a river."
The gentlemen shuddered.
They suddenly realized that Jinling Academy might be regarded as a paradise.
The ideas of these academy gentlemen are not wrong.
If these aristocratic families do not plan to directly meet the Han swordsmen, then Li Xingchen does not mind using the newly promulgated laws to punish them, but it will not kill them. But if these aristocratic families really think that they have the strength to change all this
, and even wanted to fight desperately, then Li Xingchen didn't mind taking their lives.
The rebellion of the Liu clan in Kuaiji arose very quickly and swept through most of Yuezhou. However, it retreated as quickly as it came.
Although the Liu clan is a local powerful person, what does being powerful mean in the face of the country's absolute violence?
Even heroes like Yang Jian were defeated in front of the Han Dynasty. A strong local could not make any waves, let alone shake the giant ship of the Han Dynasty.
The rebellion broke out on the fifth day of March in the second year of the Han Dynasty, not long after the spring plowing ended.
On the fourth day after the outbreak, the Han army surrounded the Liu rebels in Fuyang. The Han army's navy sailed down the Fuchun River and advanced all the way. The once beautiful mountains and rivers were almost reduced to ashes, while the Han army's Lu Shizhen troops moved from
The north side of Fuyang goes straight to Kuaiji!
The once fierce rebels were almost vulnerable to the Han army equipped with muskets.
This was something Liu had never thought of before.
They did not expect that the imperial court could assemble so many troops in just a few days, nor did they expect that the imperial court would have such powerful weapons that they had never seen before. For the Liu family, they
Their understanding of the imperial army was still in the Nanchen period, and they believed that victory could be won simply by relying on numbers and resistance. However, they ignored that their opponents were no longer the army that relied heavily on noble families.
This army has experienced the baptism of war, and holds weapons that span the ages. It is indeed not something that the ordinary people who were raised temporarily and were promised generous rewards can compete with. Even the children of the Liu family were defeated in the Battle of Fuyang.
There were people who surrendered in droves.
There was no suspense about this battle from the beginning.
Hitting an egg against a stone is nothing more than that.
On March 20th of the second year of the New Yuan Dynasty, the Han army surrounded Kuaiji.
There were only fifteen days until the rebellion broke out.
The battle to attack Kuaiji went very quickly.
"First row, let go!"
"Second row, let go!"
The Han army musketeers marched forward, and whenever they heard the command, they pulled the trigger. The first row finished their guns and squatted down to reload, while the second row stood upright and fired. When the second row finished, the third row
One platoon took a few steps forward and then continued firing.
The Liu rebels in front retreated like a tide at first, and then were completely defeated. They did not have any courage to resist such an enemy.
"General, the third injured brother was shot by a stray arrow." A battle leader accompanied Lu Shizhen through the Han army's formation, and said helplessly when he saw an unlucky man being carried down.
