Greece to roman road

Looking at the emotional Constantine in front of him, Brut was a little surprised. In his previous contact with Constantine, Constantine was gentle and polite, and he had never seen him so rude before.

"Your Majesty the Duke, I will do my best." Brut was very grateful to his benefactor Constantine deep in his heart.

"Brut, your future and destiny all depend on this mission."

Promoting Brut, who had no senior military experience, to the position of regimental commander, Constantine was under considerable pressure. There were many people with deep connections and good military talents who fell in love with the Royal Guards group positions.

It's just that this position is quite special. The main responsibility of the Royal Guards is to protect the safety of the royal family. Military ability is not the most important selection condition, because the possibility of the Royal Guards going to the battlefield is extremely slim.

If Greece is really in such a crisis that even the Royal Guards need to go to the frontline battlefield, it won't matter whether there is a Guards regiment or not.

For positions in the Royal Guards, loyalty to the royal family is the most important selection criterion.

Therefore, Constantine rejected other candidates and chose Brutus, a man with relatively simple social connections.

From Constantine's words, Brut clearly felt the importance of this mission.

"Yes, Your Majesty the Duke, do you have any other orders?" Brut asked.

Feeling that he was a little out of sorts, Constantine took two deep breaths, adjusted his emotions, and continued to say to Brut:

"You also know that I have been planning colonies in Africa. Because the country is weak, we cannot alert the big powers, so we cannot send large-scale troops to Africa," Constantine said.

"The Royal Guards Regiment of 500 people, distributed in the vast Congo River Basin, is still unable to complete the plan. Therefore, Brut, if the time is right, you need to train some indigenous troops in Africa to strengthen us. Strength in the Congo River," Constantine whispered to Brut.

The reason for this is that no matter how many indigenous armies there are, the countries will not care too much. After all, the indigenous people at this time are all barbarians and ignorant in the consciousness of Europeans.

This isn't racial discrimination, it's just plain disregard.

Constantine's request was beyond Brut's expectations.

Just let the indigenous people appear in the army, whether they are officers or soldiers, there will be complaints.

Fortunately, the officer said that apart from the factors of racial sentiment, the joining of the indigenous people had strengthened the military power at hand, but the soldiers had great objections.

After the indigenous people join the army, they obey the orders of the officers. Doesn't it mean that they are the same as the indigenous African soldiers?

As long as they are European soldiers, they will probably rebel.

"Your Excellency, is this too radical?" Constantine's instructions made Brut feel a little embarrassed.

"Didn't I say that when the time is right, I don't want you to act recklessly," Constantine said.

"In addition, we must also be careful of the forces of other countries, such as France and Portugal, and try not to provoke them unless necessary."

The French are powerful and easy to offend. The Portuguese have been operating the Angola colony for hundreds of years and are deeply rooted. They are not something the Greeks who have just arrived can offend.

"Your will will be carried out, Your Excellency the Duke." Seeing that Constantine had no other requirements, Brut straightened his body, saluted respectfully to Constantine, turned around and left the reception room.

After dinner that day, Nina came to Constantine's room with a gloomy look on her face.

"What's wrong, Nina?" Constantine asked concerned.

"Constantine, I'm going to study at university," Nina said glumly.

After hearing Nina's words, Constantine was stunned. The two of them were about to start their study journey, which also meant that they were about to separate.

"Which school are you going to? What major will you study?" Constantine asked curiously.

"At the University of Athens, I haven't decided what to study yet. Constantine, what major do you think I should choose and which major is more useful? Can you give me some advice?"

Although Nina is smart, she still wants to seek help from her friends when faced with a significant life decision.

The University of Athens has a history of several decades and is located on the Acropolis of Athens.

The Acropolis is 156 meters above sea level and can be seen from anywhere in Athens.

The most outstanding works of ancient Greek civilization are gathered on the top of the Acropolis, and the Acropolis is also famous for these museums.

The most well-known among them are the Parthenon (also known as the Temple of Athena), the entrance to the Acropolis, etc.

Although the University of Athens is not bad, one problem is that most of its majors are liberal arts, such as politics, law, philosophy, theology, business, etc.

Science and engineering majors are rare and not many people are interested in them.

In this era, those who can afford to go to college are from wealthy families who are not short of money. Most students from such families study liberal arts.

Of course, this may have something to do with the current situation in Greece.

Greek commerce is developed, but Greek industry is still in a primitive state due to various reasons.

After students study science and engineering, they have little use.

In fact, at the end of the 19th century, we could count on one hand all over Europe the number of schools with profound scientific and engineering expertise, and every one of them was famous.

But when I thought about my plans in Africa, I realized that I would definitely need business talents in the future.

"Nina, if you don't have any special hobbies, then go to the Law School of the University of Athens to study," Constantine said.

The courses in the law school mainly include law, politics, economics and other subjects. If Nina goes to study these courses, she will definitely find a place to use them in the future.

Two days later, Constantine, who was waiting for news of the experiment in the palace, met Director Philip of the Athens Municipal Hospital who hurried to Tatoy Palace.

"Your Majesty the Duke, what exactly is the medicine you gave me? You didn't pass it off as cinchona bark, did you?"

Phillip trotted all the way from the door to the reception room, his forehead covered with sweat and he was panting.

Since Constantine sent the medicine three days ago, Philip first filtered the mixture, then heated it to evaporate the alcohol solution, and obtained some white and green mixed crystals.

The skeptical Philip experimental team first used four white mice to verify the toxicity of the drug just to be on the safe side.

It was found that there were no obvious abnormalities in the four mice after consuming the drug adulterated in their food.

Only then did Philip's team dare to conduct controlled trials on humans.

Of eight people with mild malaria who were compared with each other, the team gave two people quinine, two people the experimental drug, and four others just some placebo made of flour (which had no effect, just for comparison).

"What are the results of the experiment?" This was the question Constantine was concerned about.

"There is no doubt that this drug is indeed effective against malaria," Philip said excitedly.
