Summoning of the Great General of the Great Qin Empire

Chapter 64 The Army Discovers the Port of Egypt and Plans to Rob the Library

"Hurry and report to Your Majesty that we are home!" a soldier on the watchtower shouted excitedly.

In the cabin, Fusu, who has finally been able to eat in the past two days, is munching on chicken legs (sorry, he is allergic to seafood, and Zhang Zhongjing won't let Fusu eat until his injury is healed): "What? So fast?", Fusu Su stuffed all the chicken legs into his mouth three times and ran towards the deck.

"Fuck——" Fu Su cursed: "I knew it was impossible, I have only been at sea for more than half a month, if I can return to Huaxia, it will be hell."

"Huh? No, there, isn't there the Lighthouse of Alexandria!" Although the historical lighthouse completely sank into the seabed due to two earthquakes in 1428 AD, the Egyptian government later spent a lot of money and invited countless experts and scholars. After the ancient books, the tower was finally rebuilt as it was, and Fusu was lucky enough to see it when he was traveling in Egypt.

Thinking of this, an extremely evil idea was born in Fusu's mind, that's right, robbery, he wanted to implement the Three Alls policy in Egypt under the Macedonian rule: burn all, kill all, and rob all!

He did what he said, and Fusu immediately went back to the cabin and asked someone to call Li You and Li Ru over, and the three of them began to discuss.

"No, Your Majesty, this Egypt is an important territory of Macedonia, and its governor Ptolemy is an excellent commander under Alexander. There must be heavy troops here. We can't go deep alone, otherwise it will be over if we get into a stalemate!" Li You analyzed Dao said that he had been in Europe for more than a year and was quite familiar with the situation in various places.

"My minister seconded the proposal." Li Ru also said.

Both of them objected, so Fusu had to decide.

"Let's do this," he said, "send Ran Min and Xiang Yu to lead a small elite force disguised as Eastern merchants to sneak attack on the Library of Alexandria in the city, pack up all the books in it and take them away, and let Gan Ning lead people to pick them up on the way. how?"

In any case, all the books in the Alexandria library must be taken away, Fusu secretly laughed, labor and capital will set your technology back 20 years, hahaha.

How awesome is the Library of Alexandria?
It has all the manuscripts of Homer, the famous ancient Greek poet in the 9th century BC, and was copied and translated into Latin for the first time in the library;
There are many authentic original works of the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid including "Geometry Elements"; as early as 270 BC, the ancient Greek astronomer Aristarchus put forward the theory of the sun and the earth by Copernicus. Theoretical works on heliocentric theory;
Authentic manuscripts of the three major tragedians of ancient Greece; many manuscripts of Hippocrates, an ancient Greek physician and known as the founder of Western medicine; a translation of the first Greek Bible, the Old Testament Pentateuch; and also has a special interest in medicine. The scientists Aristotle and scholar Archimedes who contributed to ancient Greek philosophy all have their writings left here.

In addition, there are a large number of writings on philosophy, poetry, literature, medicine, religion, ethics and other sciences of the ancient Egyptians and Ptolemy at that time.At its peak, it was said that the collection of various manuscripts exceeded 50 volumes (papyrus scrolls).

In addition, scholars from all over the world gathered here one after another. Many historical celebrities such as Eratosthenes, an ancient Greek geographer, astronomer, mathematician and poet, and Aristarchus, an ancient Greek philologist, have served as the library of Alexandria. curator.

Wise sages such as the philosopher Enesidmus, the mathematician and physicist Archimedes also gave lectures or studied here, making the library enjoy the reputation of "the best school in the world". Spread civilization throughout the Mediterranean world for 200 to 800 years.

Moreover, at that time, the kings of all dynasties even ordered to search every ship entering the port of Alexandria. As long as books were found, regardless of nationality, they would be immediately included in the Alexandria library.According to a legend, the manuscripts of the three ancient Greek tragedies Euripides, Aeschylus and Sophocles were originally stored in the Athens Archives.After Ptolemy III learned about this, he devised a plan to persuade Athens to make an exception with a deposit on the grounds of making a copy, but it is said that the final return to Greece was actually a copy, while the original was sent to the Library of Alexandria.

"Your Majesty, how many books of sages can there be in this western barbarian land?" Ran Min, who was guarding beside him, asked.

"Then you don't move anymore, come on, let me give you some popular science!" Fusu started to activate his pretentious skills.

"Your Majesty, what is this popular science?"

"Stop talking!"

"..."

Fusu started a long speech, explaining the historical splendor of the Alexandria Library to the three.However, the three of them were not interested in those unfamiliar names in his mouth, they were all nimas.

Fusu had no choice but to give examples to the three of them to show which great sages those people were equivalent to in the history of China.

"In this case, we must grab it!" Li Ru became a vanguard in an instant after hearing this.

"Okay, then do as I said before, Li will go down and make arrangements for you immediately, and I am here waiting for your good news."

"No, Li You handed over and went out."

"Your Majesty, Confucianism has a saying that I don't know whether to say it or not."

"Say it," Fusu poured out a cup of tea and drank it down.

"That humble minister is bold. Your majesty, with a body of ten thousand gold, shoulders the heavy responsibility of the rise and fall of China, but has repeatedly refused to listen to the advice of the ministers and others, insisting on going one-on-one with the enemy generals or going to the battle line in person, which puts him in danger!
The minister did a rough calculation, since His Majesty was sent by the first emperor to defend Xianyang until today, he has been seriously injured three times, slightly injured, once and disappeared twice. He is really wayward!In case there are three long and two short, what should I do if the ministers wait with the people?

Your Majesty is here to make a plan for the world, don't always act recklessly, go your own way, and put yourself in danger! "Li Ru also went all out this time, for fear that Fusu would suddenly get angry and send him to see Qin Shihuang.

"This -" Fusu was a little confused by what he said, but indeed, he needed to reflect on it. As an emperor, his life was not his own but the people of the world. Why should he act arbitrarily!
After a long time, Fusu said: "I can promise you that if there are no accidents, you will never fight the enemy one-on-one on the battlefield again, but the imperial conquest will not change!"

There was a bit of a king's domineering in his tone, and there was no doubt about it.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Seeing that the goal was achieved, Li Ru breathed a sigh of relief. It is good that you can correct your mistakes, Your Majesty. As long as you don't go to fight the enemy generals when you have nothing to do, don't care what you are doing. The bodyguards of the Imperial Forest Army are not vegetarians. !
"Okay. Wenyou, go and call Zheng and Zheng Sen." Fusu asked Li Ru to call someone, and at the same time complained about two scumbags. Nima told you to go east, and you really went straight east. Will this Nima Suez Canal open!Fortunately, I arrived in Egypt today, otherwise I would not have remembered it.

"promise!"
