There was an iron stove burning coal in the classroom, and a kettle was placed on it. The water vapor was misty, which was said to be to increase the humidity of the air.

Li Ermao looked at the smoke pipe that penetrated straight through the roof, thinking about the relationship between the size of the pipe diameter and the burning speed of the fire.

"teacher."

Fang Xing made an exception and came in during class. When Ma Su knew something was wrong, he gave up his seat.

Most of the students below are freshmen and have no effect at present.

Fang Xing walked up to the podium and said, "The news just now is that the Ming Dynasty will attack Myanmar!"

"OK!"

Yue Baoguo immediately applauded.

Under Fang Xing's influence, the academy students believed that external expansion was the only way out for the future of the Ming Dynasty, so apart from the excitement of Yue Baoguo, the others were also very happy.

But this was not enough to interrupt Fang Xing's class, so everyone calmed down and listened to Fang Xing's continued.

"Myanmar's terrain is complex and has dense jungles. I told you about the dangers of tropical rainforests when I was in Jinling."

Fang Xing said slowly: "The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are about to go to Myanmar. Someone asked a student to come out of the academy to follow him. Everyone must know why this is!"

The students in the academy have a variety of courses and are studying astronomy and geography, not to mention the main courses such as physics and mathematics.

"Teacher, I'm willing to go!"

The freshman naturally knows that his abilities are limited and he does not have the qualifications to go.

The old students, Yue Baoguo and Yuan Chong, were too young to go, so only Li Jia and Li Ermao were left.

The two of them stood up almost at the same time and then smiled at each other.

Yue Baoguo said dissatisfiedly: "Teacher, I have been with the army back then!"

Ma Su said: "You are still young, and your main task is to study, sit down."

After sitting down, Yuan Chong beside him said proudly: "You are younger than me! I can't even go, you are dreaming in the daytime!"

Fang Xing looked at the two students, but it was a bit difficult to choose.

Li Jia never showed off her appearance in the academy and had a calm personality.

Li Ermao is the first to come, studying hard and enduring hard work.

Li Jia smiled and said, "The mountain leader, Ermao is not young anymore, it's time to get married!"

You are so poisonous!

Li Ermao glared at Li Jia and said with a sensation: "Why is the family still there before the Huns are destroyed? The mountain chief, the disciple is willing to come back and get married again!"

Fang Xing thought for a while, and took the blackboard and turned it on the podium, but it turned to the left.

"Li Ermao goes! But go home first and ask your mother's opinions. If you don't agree, don't force it! Don't get angry with your mother!"

The movements of the blackboard eraser are very clear, and they tend toward Li Ermao on the left.

Li Jia sat down regretfully. His wish was to join the army, and his idol was Huo Piaoyao!

...

Li Ermao rushed home immediately, and Zhou asked hurriedly: "Emao, isn't this class time? Why are you back?"

"mother!"

Li Ermao knelt on the ground with a thud, scaring Zhou so much that he quickly helped him.

"What's wrong? But did it anger the professors? Then it's okay, mom goes to apologize..."

Li Ermao lowered his head and said, "Mom, there is a person in the academy to follow the army to Myanmar. The child has already... registered. The child is unfilial, please punish him."

Zhou was stunned for a moment, took a few steps back, wiped his eyes and said, "You kid, this is a good thing. Didn't you say it in the academy? You can't catch up if you read it dozens of times. My mother is still not old yet! There are food and drinks in the academy, and someone takes care of you when you are sick. Just go."

Li Ermao walked over with his knees, hugged Zhou's legs and cried, "Mother, the child is unfilial!"

For many years, the orphans and widows have been dependent on each other and have to leave all at once, and that feeling is very painful.

Zhou touched his head and said, "Ermao, you often say that a man is determined by all directions, how can a mother hold you back..."

...

Fang Zheng entered the palace again and had a secret talk with Zhu Di.

"The Duke of Qian will not follow the army. Just walk slowly. Remember, don't underestimate the enemy, otherwise you will die in a small way and ruin the big events of the Ming Dynasty. Do you know how powerful it is?!"

Zhu Di pointed to the map and said, "When I went to Myanmar, I would do both soft and hard, and I would like to join the chieftains of the Ming Dynasty... I recruited soldiers, but I would take them all and send them to the road construction!"

"As for Banggela..."

Although Banggela deceived Zhu Di, he was still a country that often paid tribute (takes advantage). If it attacked, then...

Fang Zheng was shocked and immediately expressed his opinion: "Your Majesty, Myanmar and Banggela are at the junction of the border. I heard that the people there are strong, so I will never dare to lose the reputation of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Di nodded with satisfaction. If these words were said from his mouth, the literati would inevitably complain to him in his heart, "to be strong and to attack the vassal states."

"Your Majesty, I ask Xing and Bo to send a student to follow you, and I beg your Majesty to give you permission."

Zhu Di comforted his head and said, "He is willing to give up? That's all, give the student a general, so that he can walk in the army."

The general Shilang is a scattered official, and is at the ninth rank, so he is considered to be a first entry into the official career.

But Li Ermao is a student of the academy and the first student to be awarded an official position. This is of extraordinary significance.

Fang Zheng didn't know the key points here, so he just thought Zhu Di was too stingy.

"Xing Hebo also said that he would prepare some things for the army to prevent and control mosquito bites."

"What?"

...

"High alcohol, but this can only be disinfected. There is a formula that can have some effect of repelling mosquitoes, but the effect is probably not very obvious. Let's do two-pronged!"

There were many wine jars piled outside the kitchen, and Fang Xing was directing people to distillate.

"Master, some people have used this method, but not many people drink it."

The current popular thing in the Ming Dynasty is brewing wine, and distilled wine is something that is consumed by inferior people, so Hua Niang didn’t know what Fang Xing was going to do.

“Sterilized stuff!”

Li Ermao came, and the foggy kitchen was filled with pungent smell of alcohol, so he hurried out.

Fang Xing explained: "Remember this method. If you use up all alcohol, you can do it according to local conditions."

It is not difficult to make wine or distillate. You can get it by just finding a winery.

"I will ask Zhu Fang to create something that sprays water from the water, and then spray it to see if it can kill mosquitoes. Also, make some big ingredients and boil water and take a bath at that time, so you can also prevent mosquitoes."

Alcohol is too widely used. Whether it is soaking medicine to prevent and control mosquitoes or trauma and disinfection, it is a powerful tool.

"Add some mint leaves, Artemisia annua and mugwort to soak in wine to kill mosquitoes! If not enough, add water to make it."

Thinking of watching TV in my previous life, mosquitoes in Myanmar rushed over like black clouds. Fang Xing felt that it was necessary to strengthen the anti-mosquito measures of Fang Zheng’s headquarters.

"Dear is busy!"

Fang Zheng came out of the palace and did not go home, but came to the Fang family as soon as possible.

The distilled wine is quite good, so Fang Xing got some mugwort leaves from the pharmacy, mashed them and put them inside, then stuck out his tongue and licked it, it was so spicy.

"Drinking alcohol can prevent miasma, you can also take a sip."

Fang Xing poured about a chunk of wine into his small wine glass and handed it to Fang Zheng.

Fang Zheng had a good alcohol tolerance and was generous and dry, and then he coughed with red face.
