The number of disciples in the school is not too many, but it is not a lot. Hundreds of doctors and professors are allocated to various subjects. Some subjects have more than one teacher, but it still seems not enough.

National History, Mathematics, and Yulu, which have a classroom of 50 or 60 students, are already considered small classes.

Agronomy with hundreds of people is considered a big class.

Science and military science are in between.

Neo-Confucianism does not refer to moral theology, but astronomy and geography,

Dr. Su Feng, who teaches Neo-Confucianism, is a middle-aged Confucian scholar with similar temperament to Pu Liuxuan.

He is proficient in astronomy, acoustics, geology, biology, engineering and other disciplines,

He has a large number of inventions and patents in ceramics, metal forging, papermaking, textiles, grain processing, mining engineering equipment, etc., and is also the person in charge of Xuegong Patent Institute.

In the Palace of Manna in the imperial city, the large-scale high-precision clock that uses a static escapement mechanism (including escapement wheel, pallet fork and hairspring balance wheel) and is accurate to the second is his invention.

For this reason, Haotian Temple also specially sent someone to Chang'an to give Su Feng a gift to thank him for his contribution-large-scale high-precision clocks, which means that the sound of Haotian bells in various places can be more orderly and regular, which helps to prevent aliens.

This course covers everything from astronomy, geography, biology, and physics, so it is naturally much more lively and interesting than national history.

However, due to Su Feng's relatively introverted personality and not good at talking, most of the time it is the teacher who speaks on stage, he will add below.

In addition, the black lacquer boards and chalk pens that have been tried to use in the academy and some private schools in Chang'an are his inventions.

Chalk, a deposit of calcium carbonate, is written on a black-painted board and can be easily wiped off.

Equivalent to chalk and blackboard.

In addition to science, there are also courses such as Danqing, temperament, herbal medicine, and military science.

Dr. Du Qinyin, who teaches Danqing, paints lifelike paintings with a chic personality. After taking a few classes on basic painting skills, she let the students develop freely, draw still lifes, and check them out after a while.

If the students are talented and interested in learning, the doctor will continue to teach, otherwise let the students draw and have fun.

More chic than her is Zhong Qin, a doctor of temperament. Every time he goes out, he takes whatever instrument he holds in his hand, no matter if it is a pipa, a string (three strings), or a flute, a drum, or a xun.

Once, he didn't bring any musical instruments, he just picked a willow leaf from the tree and played it with the leaves.

And herbal medicine - this course is very interesting to Li Ang. Sun Pu, a doctor of herbal medicine, has planted a large number of rare plants in greenhouses, many of which are potentially alienated.

For example, after eating, the mulberry-shaped fruit that will make people unconscious and hallucinate within a few hours,

Colorful mushrooms that resemble human fingers,

A vine-like potted plant that stretches out its tentacles and devours passing mice and birds.

In addition to growing warped plants, the Herbalism class also teaches how to make potions from these plants.

The effects of these potions are not beyond Li Ang's imagination.

At least for now, it seems that there is no drug that can prepare for surgery in a short period of time.

The other two subjects besides herbal medicine are military science and beasts.

Doctor Qi Ju, who teaches military science, is a body-training monk. In the first few lessons, he explained in the classroom how to march and deploy troops, how to garrison, how to allocate food and grass, and evaluate the strength of troops.

In the next few classes, the venue will be changed to the Martial Arts Field—students need to put on medium-sized armor, pick up unsharpened swords, and paste basic talismans to prevent accidental injury, and engage in realistic duels.

The number of people is one-to-one, many-to-many, and one-to-many.

The locations are jungles, plains, streets of Fangshi, and buildings.

This approach is designed to allow students to personally experience the feeling of the battlefield, and to establish in their hearts the perception of combat power with ordinary people as the origin of the coordinates.

Military science also includes basic military theory and actual combat exercises, and even how to find directions, how to assassinate, assassinate, infiltrate, track, and counter-track.

According to Qi Ju, in the first and second academic years, the basics of military science were studied, and in the third academic year, there was also the theory of military advancement-learning the role of talismans in warfare and their impact on the form of warfare.

War is a monk's war. The talismans, spells, and thoughts released by a monk in the Candle Sky Realm are enough to distort the terrain on a small battlefield and change the balance of strength between the enemy and us.

Even the Cloud Patrol Realm below the Candle Sky Realm can change the direction of the war by going deep, harassing and destroying logistics lines.

Ordinary people are too fragile for monks. If monks in the Xunyun Realm act recklessly and are not stopped, they can even assassinate all the officials in an entire state overnight, directly destroying the administrative system of the state.

But war is not just a war of monks.

No matter how powerful a monk is, even if he is in the Candle Heaven Realm, he will get tired and tired. If he is pierced by a blade or a crossbow arrow, he will die directly—as long as he is not a body-refining martial arts master.

Only two opponents of the same level in the Candle Sky Realm, or seven to ten high-ranking monks in the Cloud Patrol Realm, can hold it back.

Once dragged in place, the opponent can attack and delay repeatedly,

Wait until the large-scale iron cavalry equipped with special weapons arrives at the battle place, and shoot crossbow arrows with a large number of talismans at the monks, or use alienated objects to consume them round after round,

Dragging the monks of the Candle Sky Realm to death—this is how the armies of various countries deal with the Candle Sky Realm.

For any country to survive, it must have a sufficient number of top monks,

Whether it is Yu State, Southern Zhou Dynasty, Xijing, or Turks, if they lose too many Zhuxiao realms in a short period of time, it means that powerful monks from other countries can drive straight in, come and go freely, and destroy the administrative and logistics supply systems in an understatement.

And the only way for our own side is to abuse alienation items, which is the last way to harm others and ourselves.

At the same time, this rule also means that if a balance is reached between the top forces of the two parties, it will be difficult to start a war—unless one party secretly has a unique technological advantage and can take risks.

Most of the freshmen were attracted by the words spoken by military professor Qi Ju.

Every cultivator in the Candle Sky Realm is the important weapon of the country and the foundation of the country.

He fought for three thousand miles with one body, and once became a million-dollar master with one sword.

How powerful, how chic, how enviable.

Only a few students showed thoughtful expressions on their faces—they thought of what they had learned in the history of the country.

A cultivator in the Candle Sky Realm can defeat others without fighting just by existing.

Xijing was defeated by the Southern Zhou Dynasty in the Battle of Marsh River two hundred years ago, and its 400,000 soldiers were wiped out. But the Southern Zhou Dynasty failed to eliminate and annex Xijing.

The important reason is that after the war, the number of Candle Sky Realm cultivators on both sides was ten to nine, which is still a balance of power.

But now Yu country has advantages over neighboring countries, both in terms of overall national strength and the number of Zhuxiao realms. There are three reasons why there was no massive attack——

First, the Xijing, Southern Zhou, Turkic and other countries have reached a tacit agreement, and the top monks will not attack and fight each other, and jointly restrict the Yu country.

Second, the natural barriers of mountains and swamps in Western Jing, Southern Zhou and other countries made it difficult for the army to pass through, and it was not easy to station, manage, and rule the conquered territories.

Third, Xuegong improved agricultural production technology, which greatly reduced the impact of floods, droughts and locust disasters on agriculture, and eased the food pressure of Yu State.

Although land acquisitions are still rampant in some areas, at least the number of migrants has been greatly reduced.

Failure to meet any of the three conditions may lead to the outbreak of war.

Listening to military professor Qi Ju talking in front of him, Li Ang felt a strange sense of déjà vu.

Did the anti-malaria strategy he came up with, in a sense, speed up the pace of the war?
