Chapter 39 This skill can help the time traveler go down in history

Zhu Di recognized the traditional UAE costumes on the sky curtain.

Zhu Di even knew the general location of the countries of those people wearing white robes and wearing a piece of cloth on their heads.

Then Zhu Di was a little puzzled.

Zhu Di said to the crown prince Zhu Gaochi beside him: "Do you know where the UAE is?"

Zhu Gaochi said he didn't know.

"Father, do you know where the UAE is?"

Zhu Di shook his head.

"I don't know the exact location either."

"But I have a rough idea of ​​where it is."

"When Zheng He sailed to the West, he once visited the Arab region."

"The people there are dressed like the ones on the canopy, wearing white turbans and long robes."

"But I remember Zheng He told me that the resources in the Arab region are scarce. Although the people there are good at business, they are generally poor."

"If I'm not mistaken, the United Arab Emirates on the sky should also be in the area of ​​the Arab Empire, right?"

After hearing what Zhu Di said, Zhu Pangpang also remembered.

"So it's the Arabs?"

"I have also read some history books and biographies about the Arabs."

"Daqin was once a superpower, and it was said to be on par with the peak Tang Dynasty."

“It just declined later.”

"The Caliph of the Arabs became a mascot similar to the emperor of Zhou, and eventually died under the iron hoof of the Mongols."

"It was a literal death under the iron hoof."

"The land of the Arabs is barren, and the martial virtues are not abundant."

"I thought that the people in the Arab world ate sand every day and would remain poor for generations."

"I never expected that in later times, the Arab Empire would be so wealthy."

Zhu Gaochi was just following Zhu Di's words and speaking casually.

But Zhu Gaochi suddenly felt something was wrong.

Because he found that there was something wrong with his father's eyes.

"Dad...you're not thinking about it again?"

Seeing Zhu Di's eyes, Zhu Gaochi knew something was wrong.

"Dad, you fought against Mongolia before and exhausted me to death."

"Now I'm looking at the sky again, and I'm going to build a fleet to conquer Japan, with Zheng He's fleet as the backbone."

"In addition, we have already started preliminary reconnaissance work on the Jurchen territory outside the Great Wall."

"Dad, we are really too busy."

"My Ming Dynasty really can't afford this!"

"If they form another fleet and go to the Arab region to cause trouble, we will really have to go on strike."

Zhu Di smiled awkwardly.

"I'm just asking casually, just asking casually."

"Mongolia has not yet been completely pacified, and the Jurchens' great granary has not yet been incorporated into the territory of our Ming Dynasty."

"Not to mention that the fleet for the Eastern Expedition has not yet begun preparations."

"I still know the order of precedence."

Zhu Di stopped talking.

However, Zhu Gaochi did not continue to oppose it.

Instead, he took the initiative to say:

"Dad, the military strength in this region of Dashi is weak, and one fleet can capture several strongholds."

"From what we can see on the sky screen, the reason why the UAE is so rich in later generations is because their land is so fertile and God has blessed them with food."

"It is foreseeable that the desert, which is now poor and weak, will become a fertile land in the future."

"If my Ming Dynasty could own that piece of land."

"It will benefit China for thousands of years."

"But we must eat one bite at a time. The day when our Ming Dynasty conquers the Arabs may still be a long way off."

This is what Zhu Gaochi thought. Zhu Gaochi also saw that the barren desert now would become rich in the future.

But in the current Ming Dynasty, there are still many important issues that need to be resolved.

I really can't spare any time in such a short period of time!
But if there was an opportunity, Zhu Gaochi would not miss it.

Behind the enviable splendor, a new sky canopy appears.

And the first words of the new sky curtain.

It instantly attracted the attention of almost all ancient people!
Not just eye-catching.

It's shock, ecstasy, disbelief, and the feeling of surviving a disaster!

[That’s right, today’s video is about how humans defeated smallpox! ]

[You can also learn from this video how to lead the Chinese people to defeat the terrible smallpox virus if you travel back to ancient times. ]

Defeat...smallpox?
This is shocking!
For the ancient people who have suffered from the smallpox virus since the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The shock and great hope brought by hearing the method of defeating smallpox on the canopy were unparalleled.

Eastern Han Dynasty.

Liu Xiu, who is used to strong winds and waves and has been watching the sky curtain these days.

At one point I thought that no matter what appeared on the sky screen, I wouldn't be shocked.

At least not on the surface.

At most, it's just a shock to the heart.

But after hearing the video about smallpox, Liu Xiu was finally shocked by it.

Can the canopy defeat smallpox?
Because Liu Xiu had witnessed the ravages of the smallpox virus with his own eyes.

Previously, when his general Ma Yuan returned victoriously from the southern expedition to Lingnan, the soldiers were infected with a special plague that they had never seen before.

Liu Xiu personally visited the sick soldiers.

It was found that after they were infected, they would develop rashes, ulcers and pustules all over their bodies.

Finally, he died with pus all over his body.

The death was extremely tragic.

The key is that this plague is extremely contagious!

Most of the troops led by Ma Yuan were killed or wounded!
Later, this particular plague spread to several nearby towns.

It is said that this was the direct result of bones being exposed in the wild in those towns, leaving them uninhabited for thousands of miles.

Although the plague brought from Lingnan later disappeared temporarily.

But that's not disappearance.

But everyone around him died!
The short-lived smallpox plague gave Liu Xiu a great shock and deep fear.

The common people, out of fear of smallpox, gradually began to worship this plague and called it the smallpox god.

The same was true for Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu revered and feared smallpox and was afraid that the plague would spread throughout the country.

This feeling of fear was something they had never experienced before, even when they defeated Wang Mang's 400,000-strong army in the Battle of Kunyang.

Liu Xiu once thought that the terrible plague no longer existed.

But a few years later, another special plague broke out, resulting in the deaths of at least 20,000 people in several southern states!
It spreads just as quickly, has the same extremely high infection rate, and causes just as horrific deaths.

To this day, Liu Xiu is still terrified by that particular plague.

Now according to Tianmu’s notes, that special plague brought back from Lingnan was originally called smallpox?

"That plague called smallpox is really horrible and fierce, but the sky screen says they have a way to overcome it, which is really a great achievement!"

Liu Xiu stood up and bowed respectfully to the sky curtain.

"Please give me some enlightenment from heaven, so that my people will be free from smallpox from now on."
