Inventions change lives. Technology creates the future. With its political stability, strong national power, and continuous integration of advanced concepts from other national civilizations, Xin Qin's open and inclusive attitude has allowed it to rapidly grow into a technological power. The emergence of composite paper is nearly 300 years earlier than Cai Lun's reform of paper in the Eastern Han Dynasty. This is due to the national strength of the Qin Dynasty and the inevitable technological progress brought by a prosperous country. The memorial of Zhang Shizhi, the internal historian of Xin'an, is destined to go down in history. It is the first example of using a new paper type in official court documents. Zhang Shizhi's name will also be remembered forever by future generations. remember. Hundreds, thousands of years later. The story of Zhang Shizhi and paper may become a classic subject in children's popular early childhood education textbooks, and his emotional changes and psychological reactions while writing will also be processed and presented by artists. This is Zhang Shizhi's luck, and It was his misfortune, because while being praised by later generations, he was no longer who he was. When Zhang Shizhi was writing to express his condolences to the meritorious officers in the naval battle and to check the military merits and titles, Li Yuan was drafting a "Five-year Plan on Strengthening the Talent Reserve of Great Qin's Military Creation". In Li Yuan's plan, not only There are provisions to improve the remuneration of R&D personnel and provisions for special rewards for invention teams. The implementation of these provisions will ensure that the military manufacturing department becomes another complete upgrade system after the provisions for military titles and the provisions for promotion of internal affairs officials. Daqin Ministry of Science and Technology. With the four major ordnance factories of Lishan, Jinyang, Jushui, and Xingyang put into operation, in these specialized scientific and technological research institutions, batches of craftsmen, craftsmen, and students are like professors in the research institutes of later generations. , teachers, and students alike, they can freely communicate their ideas. Under the protection of Qin's strict laws and regulations, military craftsmen could plunge into the tide of invention without any scruples. With the collision of ideas and the emergence of new ideas, military production has shown a different collective strength in Qin's new round of invention and technology research and development, which is something that other dynasties except Qin have never had. ??Attach importance to technology and talents. Paying attention to the application of new inventions is an important reason why Xinqin continues to make progress and become stronger. Before Li Yuan, including the First Emperor, no king was willing to invest a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources in scientific research. Although the Daqin Army was well-known, it was only to meet military needs and focused on people's livelihood. Very rarely. National strength determines the level of science and technology. "The role of Qin's army is not only reflected in the military level, but also has a prominent aspect in people's livelihood, Li Yuan hoped. The innovation of composite paper is a leading breakthrough, and in the future, he can see more new tools and new technologies emerging that are beneficial to people's livelihood. ¡ª¡ª. Conquest brings glory, but also wealth. The victory of the Qin fleet on Kiti Island opened up the bottleneck of trade in the Mediterranean and ensured that goods between the East and the West could be transported freely. This was a major change in the exchanges between Eastern and Western civilizations. In addition to the huge profits brought by trade, the Qin army also quietly pursued the wealth of the occupied areas. The Pharaoh¡¯s funerary objects in the Egyptian pyramids. ?Exquisite artifacts plundered from the east by Alexander the Great of Macedon. There are also many intermittent civilizations that have come and gone in the Mesopotamia, Don River Basin, and Danube River Basin. Their cultural inheritance was carefully searched out by the staff of the Qin Army. Then it was shipped back to the East via the Silk Road. Wealth makes people jealous. Wealth and silk touch people¡¯s hearts. Just as the great naval battle between Qin and Rome was raging, a crisis was sweeping across the hinterland of Central Asia located in the middle of the Silk Road, and the Silk Road brought huge returns. The South Asian Maurya Dynasty, which had always been indifferent to the northern border, could no longer stand it. The seventeenth year of the Qin Dynasty, October. The Indus River Basin. In Huasheng City, the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty (Magadha), an important military discussion on whether to go south or north is ongoing. The Kingdom of Magadha, which has ruled the Indus Valley for more than three hundred years, is like a setting sun. Although the sun is already fading, it is still unwilling to let it fall peacefully. King Jucha and General Pushyamitra who were in their prime of life, Prime Minister Sunga Chaiyou, Sri Sri, the leader of the Baicheng Kingdom, a tributary state on the Deccan Plateau, and Sadakani, the leader of Andaro. These important figures from the Maurya Dynasty gathered together. The focus of their discussions and disputes was whether to send troops northward to start a war with the Qin State, a large country that spanned Europe and Asia, or whether to proceed steadily and continue to use troops towards the southern part of the Deccan Plateau to gain the upper hand. Occupy the Ganges River Basin and then conquer Southeast Asia. Both sides of the dispute. On one side are the generals Pushyami Tuo and Sunga Chaiyou, and on the other side are the kings of the Hundred Vehicles.The two forces respectively represent different ethnic groups within the Mauryan Dynasty. The strength of the two parties is about equal, and no one can do anything about the other. However, the power of the king's giant car is relatively weak. Many of the kings of the Maurya Dynasty after Asoka were mediocre and inactive, and it was inevitable that they would lose power. However, in this military meeting, Juche's attitude was extremely resolute. From the beginning, he chose to support Pushiamituo and Chaiyou, sending troops to the north, occupying Daxia, and cutting off the wealth of Qin. Conveyor line, this is the first step to change. Juche has decided that he will lead the troops to fight in person and use real achievements to enhance his status. Only in this way can he avoid being just a person like Lao Wang in previous generations. A puppet king in name only. ???????????????????????????????????In addition to the support of the general Pushyami Tuo and the missionary friends, there is also the appearance of another person who also played an important role. "Good people don't live long, but disasters last for thousands of years." The Bank of China said. This important figure from the former Yan Kingdom who disappeared in the Bosbros Strait, and a counselor who served as the advisor to the Xiongnu chanyu Maodun and Helianbi, unexpectedly survived the disaster after falling into the sea. He was killed by a group of South Asian traders trading in the Mediterranean. The team rescued him and arrived at Fahrenheit City after twists and turns. With deep hatred for the Qin State, BOC started another anti-Qin journey. Although he failed again and again and fled again and again, BOC still did not give up. It¡¯s November, the seventeenth year of the Qin Dynasty. The Mauryan King, who had reached a strategic alliance with Rome, recruited 240,000 elephant soldiers, cavalry, and infantry, including more than 1,000 war elephants, more than 3,000 chariots, and 150,000 Moro infantry. With more than 50,000 Mitras, that is, mercenaries, the Mauryan army marched all the way and launched a war to compete for the Great Xia Kingdom (ie, Afghanistan). This sudden movement of the giant car immediately lit up the warning beacons on the Silk Road, which had been quiet for a long time. On the long Silk Road, the middle section is where Qin State is located. It is located at the eastern end of Chang'an and the Western Regions, because it is close to the Qin State mainland. , although the number of Qin troops guarding here is not large, they can be reinforced through Chidao at any time; and located in Xin'an City, Dongyang City, Xiyong City and Yanhuang City, Qin's most elite troops have gathered, and only the middle section Suiye City is the area around the old capital of Daxia. The defense force is relatively weak, which gives the Indians an opportunity to attack. November 15th. The old capital of Daxia Kingdom, Suiye City. At the closed city gate, the Qin soldiers guarding the city were nervously checking the caravans coming and going. The tense war in the south had spread here. For the sake of safety, Suiye City guard Ji Bu decided to temporarily close the city gate. , and gathered the soldiers scattered on both sides of the Amu Darya River to prepare for a protracted defensive battle. Ji Bu's response strategy was correct. On the one hand, he reduced his troops in order to hold on; on the other hand, he sent urgent reports to Chang'an in the east and Xin'an City in the west. When the Mauryan army invaded in large numbers, friendly forces were still thousands of miles away. When outside, if you choose to attack head-on rashly, if you fail, the consequences will be disastrous. Because the territory of the Qin Dynasty is too vast, the Qin State Intelligence Department is not fully prepared for intelligence collection in South Asia. In this regard, Meng Hu is no wonder. The main reason is that the expansion speed of the Qin State does not match the speed of talent reserve. To adapt, Meng Hu had no choice but to focus on Rome, his most powerful opponent. Ji Bu's ability was lower than that of Han Xin and Li Zhongxiang, and his age was higher than that of Cao Xin, Gan Yong, Luo Jia and other young people. In terms of qualifications, he was not a close associate of Li Yuan. This made his status among the generals of the Qin Army always unsatisfactory. Sure. Following Li Yuan, Ji Bu no longer had the energy to charge into the trap ahead. Although he was only in his forties, his experience in the military gave him a different mentality. The past is like smoke and dust. The seventeen princes under the command of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, and the vigorous battle to unify the New Qin Dynasty. These once glorious pasts have now turned into dust. Only people like Ji Bu can be remembered. old man. He did not choose to go into seclusion like Zhong Limei, Peng Yue and others because of Li Yuan's insistence on staying, and because Ji Xin, his younger brother, was still serving in the Qin army, so Ji Bu still couldn't let go. It should be said that Li Yuan's attitude was sincere in the use of experienced generals like Ji Bu. Suiye City is located at the southern end of the Aral Sea, a lake in the easternmost part of Central Asia that separated the ancient Mediterranean Sea. This former capital of the Kingdom of Bactria is now one of the Seven Stars in the Western Territory of Qin. Due to its geographical location connecting the north-south and east-west hubs, Suiye City also grew into an important city in the hinterland of Central Asia in just a few years. The name Broken Leaf was given by Li Yuan himself, which means to commemorate the great poet who left many famous works in the history of Chinese literature. At the same time, it also commemorates the most powerful dynasty in Chinese history - the Tang Dynasty.The Tang Dynasty's expansion of the western territory stopped when it advanced to the Suiye City area. Gao Xianzhi's army lost the famous battle with the Arabs. Since then, the Chinese Army has never been able to cross Congling. . As an important link in the strategic chain of Qin's westward advance, this important city on the Aral Sea must be guarded by a capable general. In this regard, Ji Bu is the most suitable.
