User Upload Chapter Volume 10 Conquest of the Four Seas Chapter 31 Jerusalem
.Jerusalem
The city of Jerusalem is located on four hills of the Judean Mountains. It is a world-famous historical city. It has a history of three thousand years by the Chinese calendar. It is a well-deserved ancient city of civilization and religion.
The original name of Jerusalem was "Jebus". Three thousand years ago, a "Jebus" tribe of the Canaanites migrated here from the Arabian Peninsula, settled down, built villages, built contracts, and named it after the tribe.
Many years later, another Canaanites achieved enlightenment through war and built a city, named "Yorosalim". Around 1,000 BC, David, the founder of the Jewish Kingdom, conquered this place and regarded him as the capital of the Jewish Kingdom. The Canaanites, as the earliest tribes in the Arabian Peninsula, finally melted into the Jewish Kingdom, followed Judaism, gave up their language and beliefs, disappeared from the long river of history, and only part of them integrated into the Asian and Syrian people.
The languages of the Canaanites are very similar to that of the Jews. Three thousand years ago, they were just different dialects, and their roots were all derived from an African tribe near Ethiopia. David used "Yorosalim" in Hebrew and eventually became "Yorosalim". The official translation in Chinese is "Jerusalem".
Jerusalem, like the city of Babylon, is the crystallization of world civilization. Among all the known civilizations in the world, you can no longer find a city to compare with them. Their history is heavy and religious tragedy makes people feel sad. The broad and flat roads and tall and down-and-out city gates are all engraved with war and migration.
There were many very famous cities in Chinese civilization, but our nation may have a huge place to live, so our local conditions are relatively superior. We always change capitals constantly. In Liu Xie's past exploration of the earliest capital of Chinese civilization, we found that the Xia Dynasty moved its capital eight times and the Shang Dynasty moved its capital five times. In Luoyang, Anyang and Shangqiu as the peaks, thirteen former capitals should have been buried, which made Liu Xie unable to find the capital of the earliest civilization history. In fact, as long as this capital is found, the original capital of Chinese civilization - Piaotianyi - will be very clear.
At this time, Liu Xie suddenly felt the luck of the Jews and Romans. Their history - Piao Astronomy - is still standing on this ancient land to this day. It does not need to be searched, but only needs to return. Return again and again, guard again and again.
The different experiences of the nation and the astronomy of the world determine the different characteristics of each nation. The repeated exile and return of the Jewish nations determine their desire for the Jerusalem era. The repeated defense and migration of Chinese civilization to the capital determine the unique integration of the Chinese nation.
Jerusalem, this abandoned city reignited the light of hope after the Jews returned, but even so, when the moon came, the north wind was shrill, and the Jewish musical phrases kept recalling in my mind, intermittently and sad. This old and awake city could not wash away her sorrow, like an elderly woman sitting in front of the half-closed wooden door, crying, crying her sad life, and crying her painful memories.
Holding the old and broken city walls and stepping through the unique maroon-red soil along the Middle East coast. Liu Xie couldn't help but sigh.
Many of the Jews who were traveling through the air could recognize his appearance, plus the hundreds of imperial guards around him, and his unique soft but dusty black Han-style dress.
I don’t know which elderly man knelt down first, attached himself to the delicate dusty land, and his wrinkled forehead was also tightly attached to the land of his hometown. Then more people knelt down to Liu Xie and the princes.
They did not congratulate loudly as the Han and other ethnic groups. They just knelt down and cried softly. They expressed deep praise and gratitude to Liu Xie in the sound of mourning throughout the city.
Liu Xie helped an old man up, dusted the dust on him, smiled slightly, and led the prince and the guards to continue moving forward. He didn't know what to say to these people who were desperate because of hope, but returning the city to them was the best word. Looking back at the statues of David and Solomon in the center of the city, the handsome statue of the king had cracked, and the tiny cracks crawled every corner of the majestic statue, and even remained permanently in the memory of this nation.
At the remnants of the temple where King Solomon, the Jewish King of Solomon, built a cabinet of the Ten Commandments, Liu Xie stopped and let the four princes enter the ruins of the temple, allowing them to carefully view the once majestic city, the sadness and wailing walls left on the west side.
When the sun gradually turned into the faintness of the sunset, Liu Xie pointed to the temple and the infinitely sad Jews in the distance, and shouted to the four princes: "You four have shown me clearly. This is the consequence of destruction of a country. If a country is destroyed, why will the people survive? If the people do not exist, the emperor will gain a foothold again. The existence of an emperor is first of all, and without a country, there will be no emperor. The country exists because of land and people. Therefore, you must always remember the tragic tragedy of a country destruction. Because the country is destroyed, you will never be an emperor again.
Liu Wei and four other princes looked at the Jewish temple burned by General Tidora, sighed and replied to Liu Xie together: "Remember this lesson forever!"
Liu Xie nodded slightly and said, "Only one of you four is the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and three of you have different missions. Who would like to stay in Socrates and guard the Babylonian province for the Han Dynasty?"
Liu Ping stepped forward and said, "I am willing!"
Liu Xie laughed loudly with relief, pulled him over, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "You may not be able to hold on!"
Liu Zi immediately replied: "Son of mine comes to guard!"
Liu Xie smiled and said, "You will be here to guard it. If you really keep you in Babylon, within twenty years, Rome will be in danger!"
Liu Wei said: "Since that's the case, isn't that a good thing!"
Liu Xie shook his hand and said, "Zi'er's personality is too strong and very good at using troops. If he is here, he can build a country with vast territory, but there are many domestic crises, and Zi'er will not be able to solve it. Once Zi'er leaves, the place will be in chaos. The Babylon Province of the Han Empire will be able to collapse!"
At this time, Liu Xie's meaning was already very obvious. Those who defended Babylon must be one of Liu Wei and Liu Yi. However, Liu Wei and Liu Yi were both people who were determined to compete for the throne, and neither of them was willing to give in, so they did not express their opinions.
Liu Xie smiled faintly. He didn't want to decide now. As long as they did not recommend each other to the people guarding Babylon, at least the friendship between brothers is still there, and the dispute between each other is still a gentleman.
He then said to Liu Zi and Liu Ping: "You don't have to worry. The world is so big that there must be a place where you two can go. It is definitely not as simple as a state. You will definitely be able to show what you have learned."
Liu Zi and Liu Ping were overjoyed. The two's ambition to compete for the throne had long been restrained under the brink of Liu Yi and Liu Wei. Therefore, when Liu Xie proposed Babylon Province, both of them were rushing to fight. Although they did not gain the jurisdiction of Babylon Province, since the father had other arrangements, the two of them were relieved.
In fact, as far as Liu Xie is concerned, Liu Zi and Liu Ping's personality and ability have long set the place to go. Liu Zi should go to a place with fierce wars, but a vast territory, especially a large number of cavalry fighting, which is his preference; although Liu Ping's ability is weak, he has no major flaws, and is diligent and good at work, he should go to a place where there are fewer wars and a superior environment, but he needs to spend a lot of effort to manage it with peace of mind; what is difficult to decide is Liu Wei and Liu Yi, and the competition between these two princes is also the most intense. The ability is comparable, and only one person can truly learn all the knowledge system from here, and only one person and Liu Zi and Liu Ping can learn less.
After returning to Socrates from Jerusalem, Liu Xie began to formally teach deeper knowledge, taking the "Governance of the Country" as the foundation. He began to give detailed lectures from governing the country, governing the military, using military forces, and identifying people. He involved more than 20 disciplines including management, organization, finance, control, education, medical care, military art, politics, geography, physics, astronomy, biology, and even discussed the development direction of arms, cavalry and navy, and slowly taught them all his life's learning to the four of them. Yi Ji attended and listened to the lectures, and compiled it into "Governance of the Governance of the Country" based on the courses taught by Liu Xie.
The four princes studied at the Imperial Academy for many years and involved in various disciplines. However, what Liu Xie taught was more practical and even more systematic and in-depth than the academicians taught at the Imperial Academy. The entire lecture lasted for half a year, and almost three hours were spent every day.
After Liu Xie gave a lecture, the princes received an edict from Liu Xie to do their own work. The next day, Liu Xie commented on their completion status. The scope of the princes' responsibility became wider and wider, and almost everyone could involve all aspects of the jurisdiction of Babylon and military governance.
After achieving certain achievements, Liu Xie also gave a dialectical comparison and explanation of the origin and development history of the thoughts of Tao, Law, Confucianism, Greece and Jewish schools, commented on the advantages and disadvantages of each school, explained his own strategies and ideas for governing the country in detail, and carefully commented on the current structure of rights distribution in the Han Empire, telling the four princes why they wanted to carry out these reforms.
Liu Xie focused on the origin of Chinese civilization and governing the country. For the future, Liu Xie proposed twelve general views: slim taxation, fostering commerce, stabilizing agriculture, deepening craftsmanship (deepening the promotion of handicrafts and industry), strengthening the people, broadening learning (setting up an institution and promoting education), improving the army, improving the people, clean government, decentralizing power, and law and morality (marriage of both laws and laws and laws). According to the twelve views, they continued to extend them. Each view has more than ten specific response strategies behind each view. Yi Ji compiled the "Twelve Views of the Empire" based on these discourses.
Regarding the future of the Han Empire, Liu Xie told them that if the Han Empire wants to survive for a long time, it must steadily develop. Each prince and his descendants bear different responsibilities and support the entire Han Empire.
The future Han Empire will have its own country's twenty-eight states, namely Beijing, Ji, Li, Yan (Xianbei), Hu, Jin (the northeast of the desert grasslands facing the northeast of Jinshan), Xi, Liang, Zang, Yong, Yu, Yan, Qing, Xu, Yang, Guang, Jiao, Shu, Kun, Liang, Jing, Ying, An, Tai, Xing, Liao, Fu (now Myanmar, Yangon City is the capital of the empire). No matter what happens, these twenty-eight states must not leave the empire, and losing one state is a sign of destruction.
Ganning Province (Australia), Babylon Province, Turan Province, Sibir Province and another province are the main external targets of the empire, and are the cornerstones of the empire for maintaining a great power. The Persian Kingdom, the Kingdom of India, the Kingdom of Anga Buddha, and the Kingdom of Kushan are the four major confederate kingdoms of the empire. It is a strong wall to prevent Rome and European countries from competing for major interests against the Han Empire.
Twenty-eight states, five provinces and four confederate kingdoms are the foundation of the Han Empire's foothold in the world. The Central Empire controls twenty-eight states and four confederate kingdoms. Five provinces manage themselves and can decide to explore the outside world. However, they must not violate the agreement on the supreme alliance signed by the Central Empire. In addition, the five provinces are responsible for military, politics and economy.
The Central Empire relied on the national policy to balance population control in the 28 states in China. Once the population base is too large, the population will begin to move to the five provinces, and the five provinces will explore the outside world according to demand. The Han Empire itself will no longer conduct large-scale military development. It can cooperate with the five provinces to develop the outside world based on the economic situation of the empire. The main form of development is overseas trade and peaceful immigration, and further deepen internal governance, so that the population knowledge level of the 28 states in the Han Empire will be higher, with more advanced technology, stronger national strength, and richer people.
It took Liu Xie almost a year to finish these contents to the four princes, so that they could understand the Han Empire that their father had worked hard to establish over the years, and clearly understand that the fate of the empire and that they were extremely concerned about. Each of them bears different responsibilities. Only when each of them bears different responsibilities can the empire be richer and stronger.
When winter began again, Ling Tong urgently reported to Liu Xie. Egypt and Tunisia had recovered. Officials from the two provinces officially swore allegiance to Maximinus. The Han Expeditionary Force also received compensation of 13,000 peliant silver and 16,000 peliant gold, 30,000 good horses, more than 50,000 livestock, more than 112,000 servants, more than 12,000 grain, and all Alexander books, a total of more than 386,300 volumes have been classified as the trophy of the Han Empire. The spoils and compensation will be transported back to Socrates in the spring of next year. Liu Xie will deliver the letter to the four princes and asked: "How much does this war benefit?"
Liu Zi took the lead and said: "Wealth can be worth half a year of tax revenue from the Han Empire, and the harvest must be huge!"
Liu Xie nodded slightly, and just as he was about to add, Liu Yi replied: "Thirty-eighty,600 books are more important. This is the crystallization of the entire Roman Empire, including this thousands of years of history!"
Liu Wei also replied: "Books are more important. Money can be obtained from other countries, but these books can only be obtained from the Alexander Library!"
Liu Xie smiled and said, "With this money, the construction of Babylon Province no longer requires the support of the Central Committee of the Han Empire. There are even a large number of Xining Road projects that support the Western Regions. The Guangluo Road project is fully capable of starting. However, with these books, after they are shipped to the Han Dynasty, the Taixue Institute will review them, and then select the essences, promote them within the Han Empire, and make up for them with domestic academic formation, which will play a very important role in the future of the Han Empire. The most important thing is that the Han Empire will have an opportunity to guard all the glorious journeys and record carriers of these processes in the process of human civilization. I think this is the most important!"
"The Library of Alexander was built by Alexander the Great. The purpose of this emperor to build this library is to collect books from all over the world and realize the dream of summarizing world knowledge. It can be said that over the years, every emperor will do his best to collect different books without hesitation. As long as he obtains these books, all kinds of civilizations and knowledge in the Western world can be quickly absorbed. Their wisdom for thousands of years is hidden here. I plan to copy it in Socrates to form three copies, one copy is left in Socrates, and one copy returns to the Alexander map.
The library, the last copy was left in the Taixue Institute of Tianjing City of the Great Han Empire, which was originally transported to Xiangyang City of the Central Empire. Various books of the Great Han Empire were originally transported to Xiangyang City. Xiangyang will be designated as a city that will never fight in the future. If one day the Great Han Empire declines, the empire will do whatever it takes to protect Xiangyang City, even if everyone dies, and we will never let the barbarians enter Xiangyang City. You must understand that knowledge is more important than an empire. All the people under your jurisdiction understand the power of knowledge. Believe in knowledge and science are the foundation of our Great Han Empire!”
After Alexander the Great established the Library of Alexander and the emperors of all dynasties, through various legitimate and unjust means, the Library of Alexander quickly became the greatest library in early human history: it has all the poems of the famous ancient Greek poet Homer in the 9th century BC, and was copied and translated into Latin characters in the library for the first time; it contains many original originals of the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid, including "The Origin of Geometric"; as early as 270 BC, the ancient Greek astronomer Aristophane on heliocentric theory by the ancient Greek astronomer Aristophane who proposed the theory of the sun and earth of Copernicus as early as 270 BC;
The original manuscripts of Euripides, Aeschylus and Sophocles, the three great tragedy writers of La La; many manuscripts of Hippocrates, known as the founder of Western medicine; the first translation of the Old Testament of the Bible in the Greek Bible; the ancient Greek philosopher scientist Aristotle and the scholar Archimedes, who also contributed to medicine, have written and handwriting. In addition, many of the ancient Egyptians and the Ptolemaic periods of many philosophy, poetry, literature, medicine, religion, ethics and other sciences were collected here. At its peak, it was said that the collection of manuscripts of various types was more than 500,000 volumes (paper-bred scrolls).
In addition, as scholars from all over the world gather here, many historical celebrities such as ancient Greek geographer, astronomer, mathematician and poet Elatoseni, ancient Greek philologist Aristarch, etc., have served as directors of the Alexander Library. Wise sages such as philosopher Enesidmu, mathematician and physicist Archimede also taught or studied here, making the library famous as "the best school in the world" and spread civilization throughout the Mediterranean world for 200 to 800 years.
Liu Xie believed that after obtaining the Alexander Library's collection, the knowledge system of the Han Empire would be more complete. Of course, when explaining to the Egyptians, Ling Tong said that it was only copied in Socrates and would be returned to the Egyptians after copying. However, Liu Xie only regarded these as a lie of kindness. The Roman Empire's emphasis on this knowledge was getting lower and lower. For these decadent generations, they no longer had the ability to defend these wealth. The Han Empire had to undertake this more difficult task and always preserve the civilization records of the entire world. This knowledge could be passed on for a long time in text form. This is the most important issue.
Many years later, the wars in Europe and the capture of Islam made this knowledge eventually disappear into the world. Out of worship of knowledge and ancient civilizations, Liu Xie's resentment towards Islam was beyond words.
When the Islamic prophet Muhammad unified Egypt, he once said a very vicious sentence: If it is consistent with the content of the doctrines we teach, then there is no need for them to exist; if it is inconsistent with the doctrine, it should be destroyed. Because of his famous saying, the great Alexander Library, a library that collects records of civilizations in Europe, Asia, and non-Era was destroyed. In order to burn these books, the blasphemy fire burned in Alexander for six months. In Chinese history, Xiang Yu and Dong Zhuo, who burned Afang Palace and Luoyang City, were the kindest and most respectful people in the world who respected knowledge and history. Even Qin Shihuang, who was said to be disrespectful by the world, was not qualified to be compared with this "great prophet."
Every time Liu Xie thinks of this sentence, he doesn't understand why such a person can be called a prophet. Anyone who despises human cultural heritage should be cursed. In fact, Liu Xie believes that the massacre of the extinction nature does not have such a sign and is more worthy of human criticism.
However, all this will no longer exist. Liu Xie will not let Islam be born, nor will this knowledge be destroyed. The Han Empire will assume a new responsibility from then on - permanently defend the legacy of human civilization.
For this purpose, the Han Empire can never decline, at least not be attacked in Xiangyang City. Xiangyang City is the bottom line of the Han Empire. In order to let future generations understand this knowledge and the glory of mankind, even if the Han Empire dies, the enemy should not let the enemy go to Xiangyang City.
No step can be done!
