Aztec Eternals

v1 Chapter 718: Introductory Mathematics Handbook

Remember [New] in a second! The night is silent, the rain has passed without a trace, and the sky is still cloudy. This rain is just the prelude to the prelude, and the real heavy rain is already on its way.

When Xiu Luote in the White Snake City camp received a more detailed report, it was already the third day after the fall of the city. He sat cross-legged in the big tent, carefully reading the figures in the report, and then his expression changed.

"There used to be 15,000 people in White Snake City. The siege lasted more than a year, and when the city-state fell, 2,200 people were captured. Among them, 200 were descendants of the Cloud Snake God who had been captured, and 2,000 were White Snake warriors who surrendered. There were no civilians. Survived. The remaining 13,000 people died of disease, fighting, cannibalism... In the small temple in the city, a mass grave was found, and it is estimated that 8,000 people will be buried..."

Shulot lowered his eyes and tapped his fingers on the table, as if he was playing something. After a while, he sighed and took up a pen to write down the Wang Ling.

"Wang Ling: Pull down the big and small temples in White Snake City, and build a new temple for the main god. Send out priests to accompany the army, hold funerals to receive souls, and ceremonies to pray to the gods."

"Wang Ling: Send an envoy to report the victory to the Alliance. The White Snake Hill City has fallen in early July, and the Cloud Snake Mountain City will take a while... Send two hundred warriors to **** the two hundred captured descendants of the Cloud Snake God to the lake. Central Capital City, hand it over to the king and the high priests!"

Then, Shulot paused, thinking about the arrangement of the 2,000 soldiers. This Tlaxcala surrendered army had been cannibalizing for three months, and probably had no taboos, and fell into the ranks of the "beast army". According to his original intention, he wanted to "kill them all".

It's just that from a political and military point of view, the impact of killing prisoners is not good. Similarly, these two thousand battle-hardened and surrendered warriors who broke through the bottom line still have enough fighting ability to fight for the kingdom.

"Wang Ling: Send out war priests accompanying the army to transform the surrendered White Snake Warriors and give them a chance to redeem their souls."

Xiulot looked indifferent, so wrote.

"The rainy season will be rectified for two months, and it will be submitted to the Lord God. After the peak of the rainy season, it will be sent to..."

After writing this, Xiulot paused for a while. With such a brutal surrender, he didn't want to be incorporated into the Tlaxcala's Long Snake Legion, nor did he want to be recruited into the various armies in the kingdom. The only suitable destination for them is...

"Sent to the seaside, handed over to the Black Wolf Toltek, as the vanguard of the battle!"

The two king's orders were issued, and the head of the guard, Eckart, tidied up a little, and the envoy of the personal guard left in a hurry. Bertard had already gone south in the early morning, returned to Water Valley City, and continued to manage the farming affairs of 150,000 people.

Shulot put down the quill and looked towards the northern sky. Now that White Snake Hill City has been captured, only the most formidable Cloud Snake Mountain City remains. With such a mountainous terrain, it is difficult to carry the mortars for the siege, at least you can try one or two after the rainy season is over. As for the battle situation on the Eastern seashore, there is no new news arriving at present.

"When the rainy season is over, the autumn harvest will be sufficient... If the situation permits, I will lead the imperial guards, personally conquer the seashore, and lead the attack on Jinwan City!"

Xiulot touched his chin, his eyes became firm.

"To go east to the coast, we must first determine the layout and control of several coastal city-states, and deal with the status of the various ministries of Vasteq and Totonak. Then we must establish the Eastern Shipbuilding Department and form a coastal boat division. Finally, we must arrange the Eastern Sea Route. Development and Cuba's business... Only when these are settled can I return to the Western Kingdom."

Of course, in addition to these obvious reasons, there is another reason that is hard to say. That is the achievement of destroying the country by attacking the coalition forces of Totonac, and it is best to be led by the king himself. This is not to be wary of the black wolf, but to value and protect the black wolf. After all, it is hard to reward high meritorious deeds. If Hei Lang still wants to lead the army in the future, it will only benefit him if he is properly suppressed at this time.

"Coast of Totonac...Land of the Maya...Cuban Snake Island..."

Shulot's thoughts drifted away again, worrying about the fleet drifting in the Caribbean Sea.

"I don't know where the old militia and Tomat's exploration fleet are? When they return, don't stay too long in the land of East Totonac..."

Two days later, the pouring rain came in time, bringing the fighting on the plateau to a complete halt. With plenty of time, Xiulot took out a thick book and patiently finished a job that had been overdone a long time ago.

"To open up new fields, there are fifteen steps from east to west, and sixteen steps from south to north. How many acres of new fields are there? The answer is, 15 times 16 is 240 steps square, divided by 240 equals 1, So for an acre..."

The first page that Shulot opened the booklet was the first topic of the first chapter he wrote. Referring to the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" in my memory, this chapter is about "Fangtian", which introduces Arabic numerals and four operations to calculate the area of ​​plane geometric figures, which is convenient for the calculation of acres in villages.

He silently wrote out the calculation formulas for the areas of rectangles, triangles, trapezoids, circles, fans, bows, rings... and other figures in turn, and listed the derivation process in detail, as well as the calculation method of fractions, as a basis for the main **** priests to learn mathematics initial chapter.

In the second chapter, it is "grains", which proposes the calculation of grains, introduces proportional algorithms, and distributes them proportionally. The third chapter is "Construction", which solves the calculation problems encountered by the priests in the construction, mainly volume calculation, including the calculation formulas of cuboid, trapezoid, cylinder, cone, platform, and sphere, and the expansion of basic geometric formulas , and the allocation method of engineering tasks.

The fourth chapter is "Pythagorean", which introduces the Pythagorean theorem and focuses on solving various practical problems in life. For example, in "Nine Chapters", the very famous "Leading Jia to the Shore".

"There is a pond with a square meter of ten feet. In the pond, there is a young reed, one foot above the surface of the water. If you lead it to the shore, it will be exactly level with the shore. How deep is the water, and how long is the reed? .. .”

And from the fifth chapter, it changed its name again, called "Algebra 1~lightnovelpub.net~ Here, Xiu Luote began to teach "systems of linear equations in one variable" according to the primary school courses that he remembered. , for example "problem of profit and loss", etc. And the sixth chapter is upgraded to a level, called "Algebra II" becomes "binary linear equations", for example "chicken and rabbit in the same cage", etc. Chapter VII "Algebra III ", it is "one-variable quadratic equations", you must learn to draw "a graph of quadratic functions". Chapter 8 Algebra 4, it is better to "binary quadratic equations"...

"Stop! Don't want the eighth chapter, seven chapters are enough!"

After writing this, Xiu Luote felt that it was almost the same. Chapter four deals with basic geometry, and chapter three deals with basic algebra. The low-level priests of the kingdom, as long as they learn the contents of these seven chapters, they can solve most of the calculation problems in daily life.

"Well, the content of these seven chapters is roughly finished. It can be regarded as providing a systematic mathematics enlightenment manual for the apprentice priests of the alliance, and combining it with a large number of practical problems to lay a good mathematical foundation. The content of this book The question bank can be further expanded, and from now on, apprentices will not have to worry about having no exercises to do. In this case, I have to choose a famous name..."

Shulot pondered for a while, and turned the book in his hand back to the blank cover. Then, after thinking and thinking, he wrote down ten resounding characters.

"Introductory Handbook of Village Priests' Mathematics...first edition, by Schlott..."
