The ups and downs of life in the Siheyuan

The second devil was very sure that Li Yuan, who was opposite him, could not avoid it. He was also confused when he was asked, but with the teacher's explanation, he finally understood the history of China.

From then on, he hated China and felt that he had been fooled when he grew up. He wanted to prevent those fools from coming to power and make the Chinese people face up to history.

As the teacher said, a person who cannot recognize history is miserable.

A country that cannot recognize its history cannot be strong.

Li Yuan shook his head helplessly, which made Erguizi excited, "Really, you can't Refutation, YES?"

Li Yuan looked at him pitifully. He was a poor man who had been completely brainwashed by the West.

"Before I answer your question, let me first talk about the Western calendar. Otherwise, you will not be able to figure out what history is and what story is.

The Chinese calendar has been constantly evolving and becoming more accurate since ancient times.

Every dynasty has a dedicated observatory with detailed historical and astronomical records.

But do you know where the Western calendar came from? "

Looking at the other party's confused eyes, Li Yuan chuckled and continued:

“In the 16th century, Pope Gregory XIII promulgated the Gregorian calendar, also known as the Gregorian calendar. It became the dominant calendar used in the modern world.

His accuracy is almost identical to that measured by modern technology.

That was the 16th century, the era of the plague in Europe and the peak of the Renaissance.

It has produced a large number of writers, philosophers, scientists, historians, and of course astronomers.

Confused? Also very contradictory? Let’s not talk about anything else but astronomers.

He was a servant of the Pope. Under the Pope's order, he began to revise the Julian calendar. It took him three years to complete the revision.

This is the calendar we all use today: the Gregorian calendar.

If you can find a Western perpetual calendar and turn to October 1582, you will be surprised.

This month, I disappeared for 5 days starting from the 10th. In other words, number 4 is followed by number 15.

Would you say it's magical? "

"This, this seems to be nothing! Since it is a correction, there must be changes!"

The others seemed to be hearing about it for the first time, and they looked curious and confused.

“Okay, let’s not mention that for now.

Let’s discuss how the calendar came about.”

"Isn't it just to observe the movement cycles of the sun, moon and stars? Everyone knows this." Erjiizi had to interrupt to make him appear confident.

"It's well said. It took our ancients more than 2000 years to perfect the calendar. It was revised by generations of official astronomical observers and has never been discontinued.

In Qin and Han Dynasties, it was called Taishi Ling;

In the Sui Dynasty, he was called Taishi Cao;

In the Tang Dynasty, it was named Taishi Bureau, Huntian Supervisor, Armillary Sphere Supervisor, Sitiantai, and Taishi Bureau Order;

In the Song, Liao and Jin Dynasties, they were called Si Tianjian, Taishi Bureau, and Astronomical Academy;

He was called Si Tianjian;

In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was also called Qintianjian."

"So what?" Erguizi felt something was wrong.

“In 1667 AD, the Paris Observatory was established (it entered normal operation many years later). This was the first astronomical observatory in French history.

In 1675 AD, the Greenwich Observatory was established (it entered normal operation many years later). This was the first observatory in British history.

You should know that observing astronomy requires an observatory, right? "

"Who doesn't know this!", the other party's eyes began to dodge.

"Don't you find it strange? The Western calendar came into being in the 16th century. In the mid-to-late 17th century, Western talents built two observatories."

"This, what does this mean? Westerners don't need an observatory to observe, they can stand on the top of the mountain?" The other party has begun to doubt life.

“Well, let’s just say they were observing on the mountain before.

Then do you know why an official observatory must be established? "

"I don't think there's any difference?"

"Haha, observing astronomy requires not moving for a long time, and it also requires a large number of record carriers that can be left behind.

There is a greater need for professionals who can be passed down from generation to generation.

But all of the above are inseparable from a quiet place and good logistics.

Therefore, throughout the history of our country, observatories were all run by the government because the costs were not high.

Excuse me, how do you survive in the mountains? What records do you rely on? How many people are needed to rotate? "

The people around him all became more interested, and they all listened with ecstasy, as if a door had been opened.

Looking at the other party's pale face, Li Yuan did not let him go and continued:

"What kind of powerful person can complete a task in three years that took countless generations thousands of years to complete?

I think that as a servant of the Pope, he should have been guided by God."

Li Yuan laughed softly. The people around him were not polite and laughed deliberately.

"You, you, how do you explain the Crusades and the Roman Legion's attack on Qin?" The other party was already going crazy, desperately trying to grasp the last straw.

Seeing his obsessed look, Li Yuan shook his head.

“The history of the Qin Dynasty has detailed records for each era, including official history and numerous unofficial histories.

If there really was a history of the Roman legions defeating the Qin army, there would be no traces of such a big event.

Don't say that we are whitewashing the situation and deliberately not recording it."

"Why not? In ancient times, there was a scene where a civet cat was exchanged for a prince." The second devil was already incoherent.

"Okay, if you think it is, then let's forget it! Let's talk about the Crusades.

What should have happened from the late 11th century to the late 13th century has a history of more than 200 years. This is the historical record of the West, right? "

"Yes!" Actually, the two devils don't remember either, so now they can only do it forcefully.

“The Mongolian Western Expedition took place in the first half of the 13th century. There are records in the history of the East and the West. The Mongolian cavalry fought all the way to the Danube River.

Don't you think there's something fishy here? "

"I don't think there's anything fishy about it!" The other party's breathing was already rapid.

Li Yuan didn't want to provoke him anymore and turned to others.

“The Danube is the heart of Europe, and the Mediterranean connects Europe and Asia.

The Crusades were a long war between Catholics and Muslims in the Holy Land of Jerusalem.

The Europeans' nests are about to be flattened by the Mongolian cavalry. How can they continue to fight slowly and slowly with the West Asians? !

Does this make sense logically? They couldn't even defeat Mongolia, but they could also rush into the hinterland of China and kill the Song Dynasty's legions.

The European continent was a bitter and cold land in the early days. Now that they occupied the fertile Chinese land, how could they withdraw.

He came all the way here just to help Mongolia establish the Song Dynasty, and then happily returned to Europe with the gold and silver given by Mongolia.

Are the Mongols also stupid? They are already herding horses by the Danube River, but they send gold and silver to a crusader who is working hard on an expedition.

Is history crazy, or are we crazy! "

At this point, everyone was silent, all messy in the wind.

Of course, if there is wind in the conference room.

The second devil kept tearing his hair with his hands and kept muttering in his mouth.

It's obvious that his worldview is collapsing for the second time.

Li Yuan did not pity him, this was his own choice.

In fact, his output just now was also full of loopholes. He also had some doubts about many historical events.

According to the records of world history, many things are contradictory.

The reason why he can talk freely here is that he has become interested in history and will read it when he has time.

Because of his powerful memory, many world historical records puzzled and confused him, so he kept looking for other evidence.

Today, this Japanese devil happened to hit the muzzle of his gun.
