Chapter 857 The turning point of the European war


Chapter 857 The turning point of the European war raised the treatment of teachers and the treatment of scientists, and they could not patronize foreigners, which chilled the hearts of their own people.This requires a bowl of water to be even, and everyone is treated equally.In the west mountain of Beijing, Quan Xu is ready to build a huge university town, even the most ordinary teachers, living in a two-story two-entry courtyard, covering an area of no less than two acres of land.The lecturer is a three-way courtyard, with no less than fifty rooms and an area of no less than six acres.As for the senior lecturer level, it covers an area of 10 acres and 100 houses, and as for the associate professor and professor level, it is all a seven-entry courtyard with garden-style buildings, covering an area of 15 to 20 acres.In the era known to Quan Xu, many academic bulls actually lived in the tube building, which was simply a tyrannical thing.Of course, at that time it was the country that was poor, had no money, and could not afford it.But Quan Xu is very rich in this time and space, and he can also learn to gather wool from beautiful countries all over the world.The war in Europe was more lively than in another time and space, that is, hundreds of thousands of transport ships of the Ming Dynasty transported loaded with food, military uniforms, steel, guns, artillery, knives, guns, spears, spears and other equipment to Europe, so that the Europa people could fight hard.In fact, the Ming Dynasty has already closed down the factory that produces firearms, in order to supply the demand of Europa, the Ming Dynasty had to reopen the gun factories in Beijing City and Jinzhou City, advanced rifles cannot be exported, and advanced artillery is also banned, but arquebuses and flintlock pistols can be supplied openly.Even in order to meet the physique of the East Slavs and Yugoslavs, Quan Xu purchased a batch of 26 mm seamless steel pipes from later generations, and the artillery was made of cast steel.In addition to guns, at the same time, Quanxu added six factories for the production of black powder, in fact, the weapons and equipment of the Ming Dynasty no longer use the backward black powder, black powder in the Ming Dynasty can only be reduced to fireworks and firecrackers, but in order to supply Europe, it can only be sold.It can be said that the Thirty Years' War in Europe will never end in more than 30 years as it has been in history, because Quan Xu will not agree.Because it can suck blood from Europe, Quan Xu can also rest assured and boldly build the Ming Dynasty, not to mention the huge investment in education and scientific research, but the same harvest is also very huge.In addition to the steam engine, which is the mother engine that Quan Xu moved from later generations, in addition to the train, there are many steam engine-powered equipment in the Ming Dynasty.Especially in the machinery manufacturing industry, it has been vigorously developed, and the steel production capacity of Daming has exceeded 10 million tons than the initial 100,000 tons.A lot of these steel are consumed in infrastructure, only the Yellow River Bridge has built five, namely the Luoyang Yellow River Bridge, Zhengzhou Yellow River Bridge, Jinan Yellow River Bridge, Jiuyuan Yellow River Bridge, Yinchuan Yellow River Bridge, these bridges, all made of steel.In fact, this is only the beginning, eleven bridges have been built on the Liao River to connect the two banks, in addition to the construction of bridges, the construction of railways is a big iron swallower.On the one hand, Quanxu is to stimulate domestic demand and encourage private consumption, on the other hand, it is to generate income from exports.In fact, Quan Xu does not like or hate Confucianism, if the Ming Dynasty is attributed to Confucianism, it is obviously not objective enough, Confucian thought, after more than 2,000 years of evolution, has become unrecognizable.The Chinese nation has a long history, as well as an enviable culture and splendid civilization, however, every few years it falls into a plate of scattered sand.At the end of the day, it's Confucianism that is too smart.Just like at a certain stage, there is a very famous opinion that has been circulated in later generations, that is: "If you love the country, then the country loves you?"

”Combined with the Confucian viewpoint, "the king regards the minister as a sibling, and the minister regards the king as the heart; The monarch regards the minister as a dog and a horse, and the minister regards the monarch as a countryman; The king regards the minister as a mustard, and the minister regards the king as an enemy!

”This point of view is precisely the interpretation of the theory of hatred, which has been passed down to this day.But the question is, who can represent the country?

Can you?

If a monarch is incompetent, does he want to collude with foreign countries and destroy his home country?

What an absurd view?

Confucianism has cultivated too many wise and wise people to protect themselves, and there has never been a shortage of rational and intelligent people in Chinese history.But this nation has survived by countless paranoid watchmen, not smart people.This is like the soldiers who rushed to the enemy line with a smile in the face of artillery fire, knowing that they would die, and they no longer had a chance to win or not, they just knew that someone had to die generously.If everyone is like a Confucian disciple, calculating carefully and calculating gains and losses, then China will never become the China it is today.This world, this society, will always need someone to sacrifice.China's transition from an agrarian society to an industrial society relied on hundreds of millions of peasants to feed 140 million workers by paying public grain.Quan Xu carefully looked through the history books, and he could easily see the problem, although the Han Dynasty said that it would overthrow the hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone, in fact, it was not the case, because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty implemented the outer Confucianism and the internal law, and the Confucianism and law were unified.When the Han Dynasty fully respected Confucianism, the Han Dynasty also perished.During the Sui and Tang dynasties, Li Yuan and Li Shimin believed that Laozi was their ancestor and respected Taoism, so there was a prosperous Tang Dynasty.Quan Xu advocates a hundred schools of thought to contend, a hundred flowers bloom, whether it is a foreign scholar or a hundred local schools, there is a place for use, Gu Yanwu's action efficiency is very fast, probably because Quan Xu, the emperor, is in Nanjing City.On the street of Confucius Temple in Nanjing City, a demolition notice was posted, and the people of this era were far from being like those of later generations, they were too afraid of the deterrence of the government, and originally thought that they needed to go bankrupt, but when the government gave them a compensation of one to five times, all the demolition households happily took the money and moved.This time, 500 mansions were built in Nanjing City at one time to house the teachers of Jiangnan University, and at the same time, Jiangnan University also learned the management model of Liaodong University.It adopted a fully enclosed militarized management, and requested instructions from the Nanjing Governor's Office to hire 50 to 100 instructors every year to conduct training for college students of Jiangnan University.Quan Xu very much agrees with this point, whether these college students will be assigned to government departments or civil affairs departments in the future, they will be prepared for their understanding and familiarity with military knowledge.At this time, Quan Xu received the information that arrived in Quan Xu's hands after many transmissions, and the French and Spanish Empires officially went to war.The campaign was spearheaded by the French, with 18,000 French infantry, 2,000 cavalry and 30 ships led by Henry II de Bourbon, Prince of Condé (House of Bourbon), in a raid on the small city of Fuentravia in northern Spain.It was a battle with almost no suspense, on the one hand, the Spanish Empire did not attach importance to the traditional Basque Country, which was not a key area under the Spanish kingdom system.Therefore, the French could easily surround the city and attack calmly.The French army's attack technology is already relatively advanced.While they built effective artillery positions, they dug trenches and civil fortifications around the city.Dozens of Army guns, along with naval guns, fired a full 16,000 shells inside and outside the city.The Spanish defenders numbered only 1,300 men, and the fire was completely suppressed by the French, and the city itself was almost completely destroyed.This war in the history of the French army won a great victory, but it is a great pity that in this era, a very comical crash occurred.That is, the Ming Dynasty sent 100,000 Japanese mercenaries to the Spanish Empire, and about 1,700 wounded Japanese mercenaries were placed in this small city to recuperate.As a result, something happened that the French army did not realize, although the French fired more than 16,000 cannonballs at Fuentravia, most of these solid shells hit the city wall, causing heavy casualties to the defenders, just when the French thought that the Spaniards were powerless to resist, more than 2,000 French cavalry, riding tall war horses, entered the city of Fuen Travia.Apparently, they encountered stubborn resistance from the Japanese mercenaries, who were less than 1.5 meters tall on average, and took advantage of the buildings in the streets to launch fierce attacks on the French cavalry from rooftops or alleyways.After three hours of fighting, less than 200 French cavalry withdrew from the city of Fuentravia, at which time the Spanish army hired a Ming transport ship carrying 15,000 Spanish troops, including more than 3,000 Japanese mercenaries.Against the French encirclement of Fuentravia, this small scale of the war, with the Spanish Empire won an absolute victory, 18,000 French infantry, 2,000 French cavalry and more than 4,000 French navy, after the end of the battle, less than 3,000 escaped from Fuentravia.In retaliation for the French invasion of the Spanish Empire, Philip IV ordered his army to split up with the Holy Roman Empire and attack France.The main force of the Spanish army was not the Spanish army, but the mercenary army, which was mainly composed of Japanese dwarfs, who fought very brilliantly in this war, and once threatened Paris, the capital of France.Although the battle was a Spanish victory at the beginning, unfortunately, France gained the initiative strategically, they took advantage of the dissatisfaction of the peasants in the Catalo region of the Spanish Empire with the Spanish Empire, and the Prince of Condé led more than 16,500 French troops to the south, leading the peasants in the Catalan region, directly pulling the Spanish Empire off the altar, and at the same time allowing the Netherlands and Portugal to officially succeed in separating from Spanish rule.Quan Xu decided to go north to the capital to meet with the Spanish envoy, Duke Morales.This small battle was actually of great significance, no less than the turning point of the European War, when the huge Spanish Empire finally showed its decline.Quan Xu thinks that this Europe has not yet shed the blood of Europeans, so continue to add fuel to the fire!
