I am Da Song

Chapter 626

The savagery that Europeans have done is disgusting.

The British royal family, in particular, are simply barbarians among barbarians.For centuries, the royal court has been feasting on human flesh, and Charles II, the "Merry King," called The King's drops, which were made by grinding human skulls into powder and mixing them with wine.This homemade Yuye nectar was the favorite of King Charles II, the "Merry King".

In the Central Plains, even the Northern Qi royal family, which is full of lunatics, wouldn't change like this, too.

However, although Zhao Huan had a firm attitude in his heart and would definitely stop violence, he would not directly bring it up by himself.

The rush is not business, and the emperor suddenly proposes to attack a small country tens of thousands of miles away. What is the first thought of ordinary people?Presumably most of them are great successes.After all, where England is, about 4000 million of the 3000 million people in Song Dynasty don't know.

In fact, the people of the Song Dynasty also had a strong tendency to close the country, or it was called Monroe Doctrine and isolationism.

Shenzhou is the Shenzhou of the Great Song Dynasty. When they leave Shenzhou, a group of barbarians can do whatever they like.

For example, the people of the Song Dynasty had little interest in the south of the country of Besli (Egypt).I have no idea about the west of Qin.

This Shenzhou is already wide enough, forty thousand miles from east to west, and [-] miles from north to south.There are oceans in all directions, from the East China Sea in the east to the Great Food Sea in the west, the Southern Ocean in the south, and the Arctic Ocean.

The ambitions of the people in the Song Dynasty are very "small", and such a piece of land is enough.

I heard that the Dongshan Protectorate's Mansion probably has a land as large as Shenzhou, which is equivalent to doubling the territory of the Song Dynasty.

This land has the most brilliant civilization today, the most prosperous population, the mildest climate and the most abundant resources.

The economy is developed, Wufu and the people are abundant.The economic cycle within China alone is enough to allow the people of Song Dynasty to live a good life, so many people are not interested in continuing to use troops.

In this case, the best way is to form the trend of public opinion, let the people who are filled with righteous indignation raise their voices, and then the court responds to public opinion and sends troops.

Prior to this, the power of public opinion was in the hands of the scholar-bureaucrats, and the emperor had to compromise with them.

But right now, there are well-developed newspaper offices in the world, there are countless literate people, and the wealth of the people is not short of the money of a newspaper.

Then Zhao Huan didn't have to worry about the ideas of the scholar-bureaucrats at all, as long as he could guide public opinion through newspapers.

After thinking about the direction, he called Fan Sizhong over and asked, "Are you two still translating Western works?"

Fan Sizhong shook his head and said: "There is almost no translation. The main reason is that the imperial court has encouraged translation for nearly 300 years, and has translated almost all valuable academic works in the West. Taixue, Lantai, There are many libraries in Biyong and other places with a collection of more than [-] million volumes."

Zhao Huan had a smile on his face, this is one of the biggest martial arts he has ever experienced since time travel.

Future generations may not remember that Zhao Huan won the Battle of Tokyo, but they will definitely remember that he single-handedly promoted the ten-year translation movement, translating all the classics from all over the world into Chinese characters.

The Caliph of the Arabs, who ordered a centuries-old translation campaign led to their Golden Age.

Zhao Huan, the emperor of the Song Dynasty, also contributed to this magnificent feat by himself.

It’s just that the population and literacy rate of the Great Song Dynasty far exceeds that of the Great Food, so it took the Arabs a hundred years to complete the translation movement, and the Great Song Dynasty only took about 20 years to complete nine out of ten.

Zhao Huan said: "Don't draw conclusions so arbitrarily. Dashi and Wusili Kingdom are vassal states under the tributary system of our dynasty, so their books can be sent to the Central Plains continuously and translated. What about Taixi? For example, England , have you translated their classics?"

Fan Sizhong smiled and said, "Officials, it's not that we don't translate. We also tried to search for literature in the western and western regions, but nothing came of it."

This……

Perhaps because he was worried that Zhao Huan would not believe it, Fan Sizhong continued: "Officials, as far as I know, the island of England at this moment doesn't even have its own language, let alone written books. Their court language is still French."

Zhao Huan believed this. England was conquered by the Norman Duke of France, so French was used in the court.

Zhao Huan asked: "There is no harvest, isn't it a bit exaggerated? Is the entire England island a cultural desert? There is not even a single classic?"

As an orientaler, Zhao Huan couldn't imagine that a region would have no civilization and classics for thousands of years, and barbarism would be rampant for thousands of years.

Because it was just chatting, someone who knows England said: "I know this small country. From their so-called Christmas calendar for more than 400 years, after the Germans sacked the city of Rome, the West fell into a barbaric dark age."

"Until the end of the first millennium, they did not have any civilization born."

"However, in the last hundred years, especially after the Duke of Norman conquered the island of England, a certain culture was born."

Zhao Huan immediately asked, "What culture is it?"

"It's completely different from what the officials think. There are no written civilization classics, but some oral legends and epics."

Fan Sizhong concluded: "Is it a folk slang story?"

The other side shrugged, obviously that was the case.

Everyone in the room was amazed. In the past thousand years, the East has created countless achievements in civilization, classics, astronomy, calendar, mathematics, and agriculture.

And the west is actually barren, with no crops!

No wonder it is called the land of darkness and savagery.

Fan Sizhong could only helplessly say to Zhao Huan: "It seems that I am not mistaken. In Taixi, there are almost no other books except the Bible."

Zhao Huan said: "Then Qing will introduce this situation, write a few articles, and write about the customs on the island of England."

"Since there is no civilization to translate, then write travel notes and local chronicles."

Fan Sizhong didn't think too much, the pen was held in Dongfang's hands, and it was Da Song's freedom to write whatever he wanted.

However, Da Song is much more fair than Westerners. Even when writing custom travel notes, they will not write white as black, distorting right and wrong.

But there is no need to add embellishment. Just writing about the actions of the English is enough to arouse righteous indignation.

Under the promotion of Zhao Huan, the newspaper office of the Song imperial family consortium and several very influential newspaper offices simultaneously published the "Taixi Customs Chronicles England Chapter" written by Fan Sizhong.

Among them, the chapter of leading beasts to eat people shocked countless people in the Central Plains. They couldn't believe that in the same world, there is such a horrible country where the royal family cannibalize people every day.
