The most arrogant in history

He Tiantian sighed and said, "But the emperor is old, and he is still traveling around the world for the great cause of China. It really makes people sad."

"Am I very old?"

Ye Kun smiled: "Tiantian, you and I have been together for decades, and we are as close as brothers and sisters. After I leave, the Science and Technology City and the Military Factory will be handed over to you. You must firmly control the armed forces of the Science and Technology City and the Military Factory, and be regarded as the backing of Prince Ye Feng."

The science and technology city and military factory have their own armed forces.

A total of three thousand elite soldiers.

The weapons are all state-of-the-art.

There were machine guns, as well as howitzers, mortars, and rudimentary rockets.

He Tiantian and Pang Jiasun Yi jointly commanded this armed force.

They protected the Science and Technology City and also guarded Zhuo County. They cooperated with Tan Bamao, Jiang Youbao, and the Zhuo County garrison and also restrained each other.

Crown Prince Ye Feng also has 5,000 well-equipped guards.

With such a deployment of troops, Ye Kun can rest assured.

No one in the court, whether civil or military, dared to have any ambition.

Because the strongest fighting power is in the hands of Prince Ye Feng.

He Tiantian nodded: "Your Majesty, rest assured. We swear to be loyal to the prince until death, just like we are loyal to you. If it weren't for the heavy responsibility, I would also like to follow Your Majesty to the Oil Peninsula. The world is big, and I haven't seen enough."

Ye Kun laughed: "How about this, Tiantian, when I come back from the Oil Peninsula, you will take the scientific research team to tour overseas. One is to guide the scientific research work, and the other is to relax and broaden your horizons!"

He Tiantian smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will wait for your return. When the time comes, I would also like to visit the New World in the West Sea."

Ye Kun was surprised: "Why do you want to go to the New World of the West Sea?"

Over the years, He Tiantian also followed Ye Kun to Tianzhu and Jiaozhi.

I also went to Hanhuang Island, the southernmost tip of Tianzhu.

But there are also Africa and Europe, which He Tiantian has not been to.

Logically speaking, if He Tiantian wants to see the world, she should go to Africa and Europe first.

The new continent in the West Sea that Ye Kun mentioned is South America and North America.

He Tiantian smiled embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, I still have some doubts about the earth being a big sphere. I also have some doubts about the new continent in the West Sea. So, I want to witness it with my own eyes in my lifetime."

Ye Kun laughed out loud.

He Tiantian felt embarrassed and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, am I... a little naive and unworthy of being the mayor of the Science and Technology City and the honorary dean of the Imperial College?"

"Logically, you shouldn't doubt that the earth is a sphere. You've witnessed many experiments and participated in many inferences."

Ye Kun smiled and said, "But I can understand your doubt. Even two thousand years from now, there will still be humans who dare not believe that the earth is a big sphere. Everyone only believes in their own eyes and believes that seeing is believing."

He Tiantian smiled awkwardly: "Yes, I just didn't see the whole picture of the earth, so..."

Ye Kun nodded: "With our current level of technology, no one can see the entire earth. But in the future, humans will take a spacecraft and look down at the earth from space. At that time, they will find a blue sphere floating in the air."

In the School of Physics and the School of Mathematics, Ye Kun has already taught the first cosmic velocity and the second and third cosmic velocities.

Due to lack of experiments, no one believed it.

Only Jin Feng and a few other scientists, through various calculations, acknowledged the specific data proposed by Ye Kun.

He Tiantian sighed and said with a smile: "We haven't even finished our airplane yet, so I'm afraid the design of the spacecraft will have to be left to our great-grandchildren."

Ye Kun smiled and said, "My great-grandson may not be able to make it. But our generation has a chance to see an airplane."

Speaking of airplanes, He Tiantian became excited:

"Yes, Your Majesty, Pangjia's helicopter research has made progress. Last time, an empty helicopter took off. Unfortunately, it broke down just after it took off."

Ye Kun rubbed his head and said, "If a helicopter can't be made, then try a small oblique-flying plane. Perhaps a small oblique-flying plane is easier."

Ye Kun was also confused about the manufacturing of aircraft.

He wasn't sure whether a helicopter or a tilt-flying airplane would be easier to build.

An oblique-flying airplane has a run-up before takeoff, so perhaps it is easier to take off, right?

He Tiantian nodded: "Pang Jia has also considered the emperor's opinion. His current research is two-pronged. He is studying both helicopters and oblique-flying aircraft.

In the Science and Technology City, three aircraft research institutes have been established, with a total of more than 300 people specializing in aircraft research. Experts from the School of Physics and the School of Mathematics are also analyzing various data and summarizing experience. "

Ye Kun smiled and said, "With such a strong research team, I think there will be a breakthrough in aircraft research within one or two years. There is also the issue of aircraft fuel, which requires the participation of chemical experts.

Because the fuel used by large aircraft is different from ordinary gasoline.”

In the Science and Technology City, Ye Kun conducted careful research, looked through various experimental records and data, and put forward some suggestions and thoughts.

After visiting the Science and Technology City, Ye Kun went to inspect the military factory.

In recent years, military technology has been continuously improving.

The quality of protective helmets has been greatly improved compared to before, and can even withstand bullets fired from black powder guns.

The inside of the helmet is equipped with shock-absorbing fabric, which is breathable and safe.

Taking into account that cold weapons have not yet completely ended, the military factory also designed new breastplates and back armor that are ultra-thin, light and sturdy.

The latest machine guns are of a quality approaching that of the First World War, can fire two hundred rounds per minute, and can sustain long periods of combat.

Rockets and mortars have also been developed.

However, Ye Kun felt that these weapons were too powerful and had almost no use.

To deal with the Eastern and Western Roman Empires, a repeating rifle was more than enough.

Even using black powder guns, they were able to sweep across Europe.

He Tiantian accompanied Ye Kun on the inspection and sighed:

"The Emperor once said that technology can benefit mankind, but it can also destroy mankind. Today's thermal weapons are indeed powerful. In front of machine guns, any flesh and blood is a lamb to be slaughtered.

And our powerful bombs and long-range artillery shells have rendered all the strong city walls useless."

Ye Kun laughed and said, "So, after I unified the Nine Provinces, I was determined not to build the Great Wall. Because with the development of technology, the Great Wall has lost its function as a barrier in war.

In small towns across the country, more than half of the city walls have been demolished. The bricks removed can be used for development and construction, and to build houses.”

He Tiantian smiled and said, "Yes, I remember that year, when the emperor ordered the demolition of the city wall of the small county town, many places opposed it, and most of the officials in the court also opposed it.

But 20 years later, the county towns that had their city walls removed have actually been developing better and better. Some county towns have expanded several times in size. Without the city walls, it has become more convenient for merchants to do business, and the tax revenue has increased.

There are also some county towns that have retained their city walls, but now they are overcrowded and have poor sanitary conditions. They are applying to demolish their city walls and expand their county towns.”
