Live broadcast: Ancient people accompany me to make up lessons

There was no gift interference option, and Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

He saluted to the sky: "Excuse me, the host, can you tell me about the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets?"

The deeds of Queen Elizabeth are already in the Ming Dynasty. By the time Victoria reaches its peak, it may be the Qing Dynasty. He was always inexplicably concerned about that empire on which the sun never set.

[Xiao Xiao looked at the time and saw that he could write a paper before noon. He simply said: "I will show you a documentary. You can watch the film on the secondary screen to understand, and I will continue to study the questions."

I found the familiar "The Rise of the Great Powers" and accurately selected the third episode in the order of Spain, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom in my memory, and then found a set of math papers to brush up on the questions. 】

People under the sky began to be confused. Should they learn from the anchor, or take a look at the empire on which the sun never sets?

Ying Zheng made a choice and asked several officials to record the anchor's math paper, and then everyone else watched the "documentary" together.

There are many emperors who have made the same choice as him. After all, mathematics is really painful for them. If they can't learn it, they will give up. Let's see what this empire that can be called the sun never sets is like.

Except for some math geniuses, almost everyone looked at the secondary screen expectantly, waiting for the documentary to start.

[Along with the exciting music, a blue planet appeared, and a line of words appeared straight in the center of the screen.

‘500 years ago, a world power entered the stage of history’

As time changed, the white clouds gradually turned yellow, a thunder flashed, the rough ocean appeared, and a sailboat came to meet the waves.

‘15th to 16th century Portuguese and Spanish geographical discoveries’

The sailing ship stirred up waves, and the perspective was raised. A yellowed world map turned into floor tiles and transformed into a building with a very different style from the Central Plains.

‘The power of capital in the Netherlands in the 17th century’

A long, straight road appeared with many crossbars in the middle, and a big iron lump spewed black smoke and sped past.

‘1688 Britain’s Glorious Revolution and the arrival of the industrial age’

The writing gradually disappears, the magnificent Crystal Palace appears, the camera moves, and a portrait of the Queen that once appeared appears. From the globe under her hand, a topless woman held a gun in her left hand and raised a flag in her right hand, leading the men forward in the smoke.

‘1789 French Revolution’

Straight, wide roads and boxy buildings appeared.

‘1871 German Unification’

Several different ships appeared again, emitting black smoke and sailing on the wide sea.

‘1871 Japan’s Iwakura Mission visits Europe and the United States’

The snowy castle - 'The Tsar's road to reforming and strengthening the country was difficult'

The sculpture with a book in its left hand and a torch held high in its right hand stands under the sky - 'The United States was born and eventually became the pole of the world'

‘500 years of turmoil among nine world powers’

The waves swayed with drops of water at the beginning, and finally the scene was frozen.

‘The Rise of Great Powers’]

The music is shocking. In just one and a half minutes, many symbolic images of different countries appear. The text of time and events appears. It is compact and rapid, and the rhythm is gripping. Compared with the previous video played by the host, it is indescribably richer. of solemnity.

Ying Zheng knew that it was something that happened some time ago. Now he had just ordered to make paper, and he hadn't even seen the finished product yet, but he couldn't help but be concerned about how big this 'turmoil' was. different.

The world was much bigger than he imagined. Just looking at the previous map, the land owned by later generations was far less than that of his Great Qin, let alone those European countries in the far west.

And, regardless of the Qin Dynasty, what about China in later generations?

Many people who had the same question as him also asked: I know that our dynasties will disappear in the future, but what about the dynasties of future generations?

Looking at the Arabic numeral times, it was clear that Kangxi, who was closest to him, was breathing rapidly and told his adult sons who came over to watch carefully.

He was anxious and extremely concerned about the words 'French Revolution'.

[Under the dim light, the candlestick filled with white wax flickered, and the blue globe next to it was particularly eye-catching.

"About 8000 kilometers west from Beijing is the western terminus of Eurasia. Across a strait from here, there is an island country called the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, which we usually call the United Kingdom."

The map went west from Beijing to Europe. Finally, the color of the map next to it dimmed, and the British territory stood out. ]

After carefully copying all the maps and globes shown by the anchor, Li Shimin found out where this island country was and asked: "Is it just such a small island country?"

With the rise of a great power, what exactly has Britain done? How did it develop from an island to an empire on which the sun never sets?

[Densely packed urban buildings appear, a river passes through the city, and the boundaries of the distant buildings are invisible at high altitude, which is enough to get a glimpse of the prosperity here.

“This country only covers an area of ​​24 square kilometers and has a population of only 6000 million today, but it occupies a very important position in world history.

It was the first country to modernize, and in the 18th and 19th centuries it was a leader in world development.

The proud British once described their country as an empire on which the sun never sets, because at the end of the 19th century, their colonies covered all continental plates in Asia, Africa, America, and Australia, with a total area of ​​3400 million square kilometers, ruling the world. With a population of more than 3 million..."]

The first country to enter modernization, it has been the world's development leader for two centuries and two hundred years.

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned: What about the Ming Dynasty? If not the Ming Dynasty, what about China?

"colony……"

Thinking about these three words, many people looked confused.

They've heard it since Isabella funded Columbus's arrival in America, Elizabeth's England, and now it's here again.

It does not seem to be a country, but it is the area ruled by the country, all over the world.

The Chinese people are very particular about their writing. Even though the writing was different thousands of years ago and when they were anchors, and the writing style and poetry were also very different, but if they can use the word "colonial", after all, this is the UK. How do you control the people?

[The wide sea surface is sparkling with the rising sun, which is very beautiful. The sea water laps against the gravel on the beach, and the sound of the waves is crisp and clear.

“On July 1588, 7, the Atlantic currents were as rough as any previous summer.

On this day, 130 warships with 8000 sailors and soldiers set sail from Spain. This mighty team has a prominent name - the Invincible Fleet.

The powerful Spanish Empire, under its protection, has been dominant for more than half a century. "

Hundreds of warships synthesized by technology appeared on the dark sea, with white sails raised, the music drum beat rapidly, and the atmosphere was anxious.

"The purpose of the Armada's trip is to control the English Channel and teach England, the island country in the Atlantic, a lesson."

A foreign man in a suit appeared, with small vertical letters next to him introducing his identity, and he himself began to introduce the historical origins of the two countries. ]

Regarding the royal origins of England and Spain and religious matters, everyone has already heard about Elizabeth I when we talked about it before. This is the time to follow the documentary and become familiar with Elizabeth from a different perspective.

[“From the other side of the English Channel, there was constant news of the successful fortunes of Spanish and Portuguese seafaring explorers.

These messages are a clear signal to ignorant people that an era is about to come. It means that in the face of a world that has just been rediscovered, whoever can seize the opportunity, accept new ideas, and break the old values ​​faster will become rich and powerful faster. "

On the vast sea, a ship sailed parallel.

"In the new world's game rules, winning the ocean is more important than winning the land."]

The man's eloquent voice on the curtain hit everyone's heart, and the impact it brought to everyone was incomparable.

‘In the new world’s game rules, winning the ocean is more important than winning the land. ’

This sentence lingered in Zhu Yuanzhang's ears and he couldn't get rid of it.

He thought of the unspeakable regret when the Ming Dynasty was mentioned on the sky screen. He thought of the Ming Dynasty that was at the junction with these countries. He thought of the China that did not appear in the great power situation in the 500 years since the beginning of the documentary.

The muscles in his face were trembling, and different thoughts were swirling in his head.

Could it be that it was him and his order to the Ming people not to go to sea privately that caused the Ming Dynasty to lose the ocean and China?

Zhu Di thought that he had also discussed with Sanbao about going to sea to promote the country's prestige. He would definitely go to sea in the future. This did not ignore the ocean. Why didn't China appear in it?

The two brothers, who knew how much trouble there was in the Ming Dynasty, fell silent. They also eagerly wanted to know what was going on behind the scenes in this world.

In the past 500 years, why on earth was China not included in this great country?
