Returning to the Liangyi Hall, Li Chunfeng came over quickly. Li Ke took out the modern astronomy, the Gregorian calendar and the modern lunar calendar directly, and then handed them to Li Chunfeng. This was delivered by Li Ke last night. of.
"These books are all my people's research on astronomy. They contain data on observations and calculations such as the positioning of the sun and stars. You can go and verify it. They contain data and methods on measuring these aspects. These two One set of calendars is accurately calculated based on the time it takes for the earth to revolve around the sun, which I call the Gregorian calendar, while the other set is a combined calendar that integrates the traditional lunisolar calendar."
"Your Taishi Bureau will complete the verification of it as quickly as possible. It is best to put it into use directly this year. After the verification of these two calendars, Datang will implement two parallel calendar structures of the Gregorian calendar and the lunar calendar." Li Ke explained , "If you are not good at calculating data, I will arrange someone for you to help you calculate."
He was too lazy to explain so much. Anyway, he had trained many mathematical experts under his name and sent them there, which was enough to scare them.
"Yes." Li Chunfeng looked stunned. Two sets of calendars?
Looking at the thick stack of books in his hand, Li Chunfeng couldn't wait to read them, but in the end he held back.
"You should master its knowledge as soon as possible. Some of the verification methods are not difficult, but you have not found the relevant methods before. Test them as soon as possible after you go back. In addition, I will build a brand new mechanical structure, a clock, for Calculate the time. I will give you one when the time comes." Li Ke said with a smile.
There is no doubt about the advantages of clocks. The traditional Chinese timekeeping method is very accurate in calculating large time, but the smaller the time unit, the greater the error.
The harder it is to actually apply timekeeping in life.
It can be said that the emergence of the pendulum clock can promote scientific and technological progress in various aspects. Not to mention other aspects, timing in scientific research on gunpowder, casting ironware, and popularizing new materials all require very precise calculations.
After popularizing the time, you only need to record how many minutes or seconds it took.
One of the reasons why it is difficult for ancient Chinese craftsmen to inherit many aspects is the problem of heat.
"Yes, I'm leaving." Li Chunfeng bowed and saluted.
Li Ke nodded and signaled that Li Chunfeng could leave.
…
The joys and sorrows in the court are different from those in Chang'an City. Today's Chang'an City is destined to be another hot day.
Not only Chang'an City, today's "Datang Weekly" walked into the camp of the Sixteenth Guards garrison in Chang'an.
All the soldiers who were not on duty in each of the Sixteenth Guards' campuses were gathered together. In one of the Zuowuwei campuses, Liu Yilong, as the captain of Zhechong, gathered all the soldiers under his jurisdiction today.
Most of the Zhechong Mansion commanded by Zuo Wuwei was Shangfu, and he commanded 1,200 soldiers.
Standing on the general stage, Liu Yilong was excited. Today's newspapers were sent directly to him. His Highness sent a hundred copies in total. Most of the soldiers under his command were illiterate.
In fact, although Liu Yilong was literate and had read military books, overall he was not comparable to those who came from a wealthy family. However, among the captains under his command, there were not many who had read military books.
"Brothers!" Liu Yilong shouted loudly after waiting for everyone to gather.
Several soldiers in the crowd below spread Liu Yilong's voice.
"I have gathered everyone together today to tell you some good news! Do you know what is in my hand?" Liu Yilong raised the newspaper in his hand.
"Know!" shouted in unison.
"Yes, what I have in my hand is Datang Weekly, but what I want to tell you today is an article published in Datang Weekly!"
"Title, description of the establishment of the National Cemetery of Martyrs of the Tang Dynasty!" Liu Yilong's voice was filled with excitement when he read out the name.
"What are martyrs? Martyrs are all the soldiers, government officials, Wuhou, etc. who died fighting for the Tang Dynasty. They are called martyrs!"
"As for this content, I won't read it to you because I'm afraid you won't understand it." Liu Yilong said with a smile.
All the soldiers burst into laughter immediately. They really couldn't understand those articles.
"The rough content is that His Highness the King of Qin proposed and His Majesty approved that in the early stage, His Highness the King of Qin and all the princes and princesses jointly donated 2 million yuan to establish the Datang National Martyrs Cemetery. All the soldiers who died in the war for the Tang Dynasty will be A collective funeral will be held, and he will be buried in the National Cemetery of Martyrs of the Tang Dynasty for a state funeral. His Majesty will lead hundreds of civil and military officials to pay homage at the beginning of each year!"
When Liu Yilong said the general content, all the soldiers below were stunned, and then there was an uproar.
"Captain, are you telling the truth?!" A captain standing at the front couldn't help but asked loudly.
"Of course it's true! This was published in the "Datang Weekly". Now not only you know it, but hundreds of thousands of people in Chang'an know it. It won't be long before the Datang Weekly will spread the news to the Tang Dynasty. All over the world!" Liu Yilong shouted loudly, "When the time comes, we will not only build the Tang National Martyrs Cemetery in Chang'an, but also build national martyrs' cemeteries in all ten regions of the Tang Dynasty! Let all the brothers who died in the war return to their homeland with honor! "
"Okay!" Warm and excited cheers immediately sounded from below.
"Liu Duwei, are there any articles written by His Highness the King of Qin? Are you thinking about it? We can't understand other people's articles, but we can still understand the articles written by His Highness the King of Qin." A voice sounded from among the soldiers below. stand up.
"Yes, we must all understand the article written by His Highness King Qin." Most of the soldiers shouted immediately.
"There really is, okay, then I will read to you the article of His Highness the King of Qin." Liu Wenlong smiled, and then continued: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin wrote. From ancient times to the present, there have been countless famous generals in the past dynasties. Qin has the killing god Bai Bai. Since ancient times, there have been fierce generals such as Wang Jian and Meng Zhizhi, and the Han Dynasty has Han Xin, Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and other famous generals through the ages. But since ancient times, one general has made thousands of bones! Everyone has seen the glory of the famous generals through the ages, and their unprecedented achievements."
"But no one ever mentions the ordinary soldiers who also sacrificed their lives for the sake of their family and country."
“But I, the Tang Dynasty, will never forget, and the mountains and rivers of the Tang Dynasty will not forget, who sacrificed their lives with their blood and sacrifices when the country and the nation were in danger, when their homeland was invaded, and when the people suffered. Life has supported the backbone of the Tang Dynasty! It has provided a peaceful sky for the people of the Tang Dynasty!"
