Daming One Piece

Chapter 244 Above the cloud top
Go to Genting to study!
In fact, the civilization of South China Sea in the 30 years of Apocalypse is extremely prosperous. After all, the tens of thousands of gentry and scholars who were exiled back then were the so-called "seeds of reading". , whose style of writing is even more prosperous than that of Jiangnan.

But even so, for many people, going to Yunding to study is still a shortcut in life. Yunding University Hall is almost equivalent to the existence of Guozijian in Nanhai.

Of course, Genting University is definitely different from Guozijian. It is not only the highest educational administrative organ in the South China Sea, but its establishment marks the beginning of modern higher education. It offers economics, law and politics, liberal arts, Gezhi, agriculture, engineering, and business. As well as the eight sub-universities of the Navigation Department, as a comprehensive university in the modern sense, after more than ten years of hard work, this university has begun to take shape.

Of course, for Nanhai and even Daming, this comprehensive university lies in the thousands of college students trained every year. It is the existence of these college students that provides continuous intellectual support for Nanhai and Daming's industrial revolution.

Although the steam engine has not been applied yet, there is already a prototype of the steam engine in Genting University. Every year, hundreds of students majoring in engineering machinery come into contact with him. While being amazed by the infinite potential of the steam engine, their hearts It also planted the germs related to it.

No one doubts that in the future, whether in a factory workshop or in an inventor's laboratory, a practical steam engine will eventually be invented, and as the "subsystems" related to it are invented again and again, This day will eventually come.

Either today or tomorrow.

Who knows?

As an engineering student, in the past few decades, Shi Yiwen has brought too many new technologies to the world, from "simple" graphite crucible steelmaking to textile machines. It is to provide an idea for the teachers and students of Genting University to study.

When will the industrial revolution break out?
Even Shi Yiwen didn't know.

Apocalypse 38 years, AD 1658.

That is to say, when Shi Yiwen was over 600 years old, the number of Han people in the South China Sea Xuanwei Division had exceeded 800 million!This does not include the naturalized Han people. If Jingnan (Siam), Zhaoyuan (Chenla), Pingnan (Myanmar) and Luzon under the jurisdiction of the imperial court are included, the number of Han people in the South China Sea has exceeded 500 million. It has exceeded [-] million. In terms of population, except for Pingnan, the population of Han people has surpassed the population of indigenous people in all places.

In various parts of the South China Sea, Ming Mandarin has become a common language for daily use. Whether you can speak Mandarin has become the basic standard for distinguishing between Han and barbarians, whether it is Siamese, Khmer, Malay, Javanese Humans all choose to naturalize one after another. Those who refuse to naturalize can only become slaves, and as slaves, they are also rapidly Sinicizing.

This is not only the case here, even the Indians in the southeastern coastal area of ​​India, those Indians near the leased or occupied strongholds in the South China Sea, also show a trend of Sinicization. Compared with the South China Sea, the race there is very different from the Ming people, but even This is the case, and it does not hinder their trend of Sinicization. There are not a few people who switch to official Chinese and use Chinese surnames. They all worship Buddha, speak Chinese, and use chopsticks.

Of course, there are not many real Ming people in those areas, but there are many mixed-race Han people. They are all born after intermarriage between Han people and local high-castes, although their appearance has some Tianzhu style.But this does not prevent them from being Han Chinese.

On the road of the Mughal Empire's southward expansion, the city-states on the southeast coast became the biggest obstacle for the Mughal Empire. In order to resist the Mughal Empire's southward expansion, the Indian states in the south chose to marry Shi Yiwen one after another—— The daughter married his son in order to gain the support of Daming, more precisely, the support of the Xuanwei Division of the South China Sea. For these Tianzhu natives, they knew very well who they should turn to for help.

For Shi Yiwen, this has to be said to be an unexpected harvest. Although it was an accident, it also gave him the opportunity to enter South India.The states of South India...there were once the Great Ming canonized the homeland of China!
Of course, Shi Yiwen did not refuse their marriage request. For him who is young and strong, he has many wives and naturally many sons. A total of 36 sons are enough for marriage.

Of course, the marriage could not stop the Mughal Empire from going south, but it could allow the South China Sea Xuanwei Division to support the sons to regain their land in the name of restoring the country.By the 40th year of Apocalypse, as many as 23 small countries in South India had the surname Shi.

How can there be one person in the world who is the father of the rulers of dozens of countries?
Have!
Zhou Tianzi divided the princes.

After that, there will be no such country.Whether it is Han or Ming, the so-called "country" is actually in name.

Although Shi Yiwen's sons still use the old aboriginal names in India, the Sinicization of those areas is still inevitable.

What is certain is that India in the future will be a highly Sinicized region, perhaps there will be dozens of highly Sinicized states there, and perhaps after more than 200 years of mergers and crusades, it will become a highly Chinese "New India" ".

All this is unknown.

But what is certain is that although many sons have become kings.But Shi Yiwen is still the minister of Daming, the consolation envoy of the South China Sea Propaganda and Consolation Department of Daming!
It will be 40 years since the dawn of tomorrow.

This year, Ming's internal troubles have basically subsided. The last wave of bandits had been put down three years ago. Although in the northwest frontier, because of the frequent conflicts between Hamiwei and Zhungeer, Xizheng put down Zhungeer. Er's voice became louder and louder, but Emperor Tianqi, who was over sixty years old, did not seem to be planning to go west.

Western Expedition.

No one would doubt that Ming could conquer the Western Regions and take back that piece of Han and Tang homeland to China.And this voice has always existed in Daming, but it has been trapped by strength for many years, that is to say, but now, Daming does have this strength.

During the long-term battle against the bandits, the Ming Dynasty's officers and soldiers had already completed the use of firearms. At this time, the Ming Dynasty's officers and soldiers were no less than 60, equipped with the world's most advanced flintlock guns and field artillery.Five years ago, the battle to destroy Burma was carried out in pursuit of the bandits. Only a mere ten thousand people were used to destroy Burma and become a province of Ming Dynasty.

At this time, Daming was conceited. Although there were many internal problems, they still set their sights on the outside world.

It's just outside this region, not just the Western Regions, but also the South and the South China Sea.

Nanhai, that is the granary of the empire!
