Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

However, after arriving in Chang'an, before Lu Jun and his group went to find Chen Xi, they met Romans at the post station. Speaking of which, Rome now has a place of residence in Chang'an, but some Romans still prefer the post station, because the post station people come. People go, there will be big bosses from time to time.

Some Romans like to do business with local tyrants. On the one hand, the things in the hands of local tyrants are good; .

The Romans didn’t know how to order it, or directly speaking, sociology is a pitfall. Anyway, the Romans rolled around ordering sociology, and then relying on this subject that they don’t know what to order to study the Han Dynasty The composition of the population, as well as the size of the population, the composition of the economy.

Although it is not very accurate, the Romans squatted at the post station to greet and send them to them. They really researched something. It is basically confirmed that the population of the Han Dynasty is all native ethnic groups, and the main ethnic group accounts for more than 90%. Other non-main ethnic groups , From the root, it also has a more or less blood relationship with the main ethnic group.

To put it simply, in the eyes of the Romans, the Han Dynasty was a very stable imperial structure. Even if it fell, it would be at most a change of person, not a change of species. According to the calculation of this Diocles, the number of main ethnic groups was about three Ten to sixty million.

Of course, since he himself did not travel to the Central Plains himself, this number is an estimate, but he does not want to make trouble with this number, so after estimating this number, it is enough to compare the strength of Rome and the Han Dynasty with peace of mind. Help him understand this mighty empire.

In fact, after calculating this number, Diocles was a little worried about the number of citizens in Rome. Although the overall population of Rome was also estimated by him, after all, the Romans only roughly counted the number of barbarians. The Romans actually didn't take it too seriously. After so many years of being strong, Rome has already been superior.

However, in terms of the treatment enjoyed by Roman citizens and the rate of population circulation, Diocles estimated that the number of barbarians should be around 50 million based on his half-baked sociology and fairly good figures. Otherwise, he would not be able to supply 600 million Ten thousand citizens lived almost aristocratically.

Before Diocletus came to the Han Dynasty, he always felt that this method was extremely correct, oppressing the lowly barbarians, gathering the strength of tens of thousands of people to support six million citizens, making the citizens almost aristocratic existence, and even necessary Under such circumstances, you can directly become a layoff.

Let citizens have time and energy to pursue everything they need, let citizens have enough honor, enough capital, and show their love for the country when they need it.

It can be said that before coming to the Han Dynasty, Diocles really believed that the clear class system of Rome and the generous living of citizens were extremely correct systems, but after seeing the main ethnic group of the same blood as the Han Dynasty When the population exceeds 30 million, Diokles is really stupid, and he never thought of such an operation.

Although it is not easy to classify in this way, the system of slaves, commoners, and citizens is somewhat impractical, but looking at the state of the Han Dynasty, I ask from the bottom of my heart, is it doing badly? It may be true that they are not as good as the six million Roman citizens, but they are exactly the same in terms of promotion.

In fact, if you think about it, you will know that they are not of the same race. The Romans dare not let the other party climb up directly. If they are not of our race, their hearts must be different. This is not only the case in China, but also in Rome!

"I may need to find a professional to contact the Han Dynasty to learn how to make the main ethnic group reach tens of millions..." Diokler was very entangled after reading what he had made, but when he thought of tens of millions The social welfare of citizens is a bit big. It's really not easy to solve. Maybe Rome will be ruined in a few clicks.

So much so that in the end Diokles could only seal up his own research and conjectures, and wait for the opportunity to open it again in the future. Forget it now, six million citizens are pretty good, and no matter how many Rome there are, it will be too much to support. get up.

In any case, they are not barbarians who can survive by eating dirt, but citizens who need to prepare residences, allocate housing, arrange water conservancy networks, and allocate public facilities.

Occasionally, they need to be recruited for enhanced military service training. Although it doesn’t cost money, it’s not like eating dirt. Citizens can grow tall and strong, and people are tall and big. You really think that there is no meat added!

These are all money. Citizens say that they prepare their own weapons and horses, but to be honest, such a citizen is also raised by the state. Do you really think that without a state, you can have a home?

How much does tens of millions of citizens have to invest? Diokler decisively gave up this nonsense idea. Six million citizens is not bad. I dare not increase it any more. Any more will either reduce welfare or the country cannot sustain it. Both are the same. Die, give up give up.

In such a situation where a lot of information can be collected and a lot of important information can be obtained after analysis, several members of the Roman mission have been staying at the post station all the time, and they can speak a few words of Chinese even now. It's very familiar, but I can barely communicate with it.

The Romans that Lu Jun encountered this time were Diocles, who was disgusted by the conclusions he drew. Speaking of which, the envoys sent by the Romans were of high quality, and in terms of ability, they had economic cards like Herodian. The characters, although not top-notch, are not bad either.

In terms of force, there are also boundary-breaking masters like Aristonos. Although he ran away after confirming the goodwill of the Han Dynasty during this period, he did follow when he came.

In terms of status, there are also the sons of the duke, and the elders of the Senate. In medicine, there are also figures like Galen, who can be regarded as one of the best in the history of medicine. It can be said that the quality of this envoy may be completely blown up by throwing it to some countries. Top guy.

However, this is the case when it comes to the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty is also a bunch of bugs in this era, because it doesn't seem that this group of people is so weird.

Take Diokles as an example, he is an ordinary mathematician, and there is another Zhao Shuang in the Han Dynasty, who can be included in the history books and leave a mark in the mathematics world.

If it is the same generation, I am afraid that we can only wait a few years for the birth of Diophantus, who engraved math problems on the tombstone, before we can deal with Zhao Shuang. A kind of algebraic founder only fight.

But this kind belongs to the real boss, and I really can't afford to mess with the series. The algebra of later generations came out of this guy, and it can be regarded as a bug-level character.

Generally speaking, the quality of this group of people is still very high, and there are quite a few who can help the Han Dynasty. Diokles, a mathematician, really helped the Han Dynasty, and the incident happened in Lu When Jun and Zheng Hun were talking about the steam engine.

Here we must first mention something rather strange. The science and technology tree of world history was very messy before the industrial revolution, and the Central Plains belonged to a very strange branch. The Central Plains had already ordered electricity, geomagnetism, Oil, natural gas, but no steam engine...

Europe, on the other hand, basically has no point, and has been lighting steam engines. From the earliest ancient Greece, this group of people has learned to use steam to do things, like steam to open doors, steam jets, in short, Europe has been lighting steam engines. .

Around BC, the Roman mathematician, Hero, came up with the steam ball, which is a toy that uses steam to propel and rotate...

Then Hiro didn't continue to study this thing, but its theory was complete at that time, but Hiro didn't go down to study it, but started to study wind power, and successfully manufactured the wind wheel, becoming the first in history Equipment that uses wind power to make troubles, so that in Europe afterwards, there are almost windmills everywhere.

This is roughly the case. In short, this person is very annoying, and he has only been dead for a hundred years. Many things learned by Roman mathematicians are made by this person. Naturally, he is very impressed by the things he invented. , So after talking about the steam engine, the Romans also talked about it.

At that moment, Zheng Hun and Ma Jun were stunned. After all, the steam engine hadn't been used outside a few times since they got it out. How did this person know.

Therefore, the two directly surrounded each other, and actually saw the other party with a big beard and a bearded face. Zheng Hun and Ma Jun couldn't help but suspect that someone would steal the things they hadn't finished researching. .

However, if you don’t ask, you don’t know. When you ask, you’re shocked. Rome actually made something similar a hundred years ago. Oh, it’s a toy. Let me see what your toy looks like.

If it is said that other countries in the world may still have sealing and technical problems when engaging in steam balls at this time, these problems do not exist at all in the Han Dynasty. After all, the barely usable Tiandi Jingqi-steam hybrid engine has already After it was done, the air-tightness test barely passed. It is difficult to make a big one, but to make a small one, just use leftovers.

Both Zheng Hun and Ma Jun were resolute figures, and they brought Diokles directly to the master craftsman of the Han Dynasty. Now about half of the master craftsmen of the Han Dynasty have gathered here, and the remaining half should be building bridges. Well, it is the viaduct, Chen Xi is already crazy, and Sun Qian is also crazy. There is nothing to talk about building it. If you don’t practice it, who knows how good it is.

Diocles is not a machinist, but since Hiro is a mathematician, part-time machinist and inventor, he has learned Hiro's theories. Speaking of which, I need to be grateful, Rome has not yet fallen, So the clay tablet is very complete.

The craftsmen of the Han Dynasty are also very complete, and naturally they were very fast. In just a few days, the Han Dynasty produced the steam-rotating ball. Then Zheng Hun and Ma Jun looked at the connection method of the steam-rotating ball and thought of a new transmission method.
