In the eighth year of Zhenguan, the year was Jiawu.

The railway line from Chang'an City to Luoyang City was finally opened to traffic. The overjoyed Li Er once again summoned envoys from all walks of life to travel from Chang'an City to Luoyang City in order to show the majesty of the Tang Dynasty before all nations.

Compared with the past, there was one more person in the team of envoys this time, a person that attracted Li Yunze's attention.

This person's name is called Lu Dongzan, and he is the Prime Minister of Tubo.

This trip to Datang, on the one hand, saw that Datang's hands had gone deep into the Western Regions, so he was anxious to come over to inquire about information.

On the other hand, they want to seek help from Datang, everything in terms of materials and technology.

Although Lu Dongzan came down from the mountain, his brain was not dizzy because of the rich oxygen, on the contrary, he was very flexible.

As soon as he came here, he sent gold, silver and jewelry everywhere, and inquired about Datang's information from various aspects.

The honorables are strict with their mouths, and they don't think much of Lu Dongzan's gold, silver and jewelry. After all, they have been on the battlefield and know that there are some things they can't say.

It's just that it's obviously not good for the civil servants. Many people took the money and regarded Lu Dongzan as a generous and heroic man, and they could talk about everything after a drink together.

It can be said that civil servants have almost no sense of confidentiality since ancient times, and they are extremely easy to be bribed.

In addition to simply inquiring, Lu Dongzan also went around to see the prosperity and technological development of Datang with his own eyes.

The prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, the abundant supply of materials, and the development of technology all left a deep impression on Lu Dongzan.

He dared to swear to the gods that he had never seen such a powerful and rich civilization in the world even in his dreams.

The endless crops on the Guanzhong Plain, the countless cattle, sheep and horses in the Lijiazhuang Ranch, the various water conservancy facilities on the eight waters around Chang'an, the piles of goods in the East and West cities, especially the one next to Longshouyuan Stretching for dozens of miles, the super-giant blacksmith shop that continuously spewed black smoke into the sky made Lu Dongzan's eyes turn red.

Especially when he personally took the railway from Chang'an City to Shengzhou, feeling the terrifying power brought by the giant steel beast, his first thought after getting off the train was to grab it!
Primitive tribes have no civilization, and the most common principle is plunder.

It doesn't matter if I don't have one, just grab what you have.

They don't think there is anything to be ashamed of, because there is no civilization and no culture, so they are naturally proud to show off their barbarism and force.

It's just that Lu Dongzan has a brain and has seen Datang's steel army. It is really a steel army. The Tang army, especially the Tang army deployed around Chang'an City, has a basic armor rate that is infinitely close to that of all members. Among them, the iron armor is even more Nearly [-]% or more.

Needless to say anything else, Tang Jun's terrifying armor rate alone is enough to calm down Lu Dongzan's frenzied head.

After all, when Chen Tang said that "the former five men should be Han soldiers and one man (one Han should be five Hu)", the previous sentence was "Hu people's weapons are simple and blunt, and their bows and crossbows are not good." '

Why weapons, bows and crossbows can't work, of course, is because of the armor with strong defense.

With so many armors in the Tang army, their spirits were also extremely high. Lu Dongzan naturally knew very well that Tubo could not be defeated now.

When the robbers can't beat them, they will disguise themselves, and wait for the opportunity in a pitiful disguise.

Lu Dongzan also found out that the rapid growth of Datang's productivity in recent years has a very close relationship with the owner of Lijiazhuang.

It can even be said that basically all good things come from Lijiazhuang.

So what Lu Dongzan wanted to do the most was to make friends with Li Yunze.

The train started, rumbling towards Luoyang.

All the envoys looked around curiously, and everyone's faces were mixed with envy and fear.

It is said that there is not much to say about the giant steel beast that can travel thousands of miles a day. Just the steel laid along the way is a number that makes the envoys crazy, a number that they dare not even think about.

Lu Dongzan only took a few glances before turning his eyes away, and walked towards Li Yunze who had taken out a new book and was about to read it like a tiger.

"Stop!"

Before Lu Dongzan approached, Li Yunze frowned and stretched out his hand to signal him to stop.

Lu Dongzan showed doubts on his face, but he spoke Chinese smoothly, "What's wrong?"

"Have you ever taken a bath in your life?" Li Yunze didn't hide the look in his eyes at all, "The smell of X on your body has been floating before you approach me, hurry up and don't smoke me."

In an instant, Lu Dongzan's face became extremely ugly.

The surrounding people also showed the color of eating melons, and subconsciously looked over.

Lu Dongzan, who was the Prime Minister of Tubo, had never been so humiliated.If it were on a high mountain, his bones would have been dismantled and used to make drums.

But here is Datang!

Thinking about the mission he shouldered again, Lu Dongzan forcibly held back his anger, bowed his hands to Li Yunze and turned to leave.

Li Yunze didn't even raise his eyelids, and continued to flip through the book.

Rumbling all the way, after passing Huazhou, Li Er came and sat beside him.

Seeing Li Yunze putting away the book with vigilant eyes, Li Er's eyelids twitched unnaturally.

'What's there to hide, it's as if I would steal your book, spit. '

Li Er calmed down and asked with a smile, "I heard you don't want to see Lu Dongzan?"

"It's not against him." Li Yunze shook his head with a calm expression. "I'm targeting all those with ulterior motives."

"Lu Dongzan has ulterior motives?" Li Er frowned, "But many people say that he is upright and generous, and he is a hero."

Li Yunze squinted at the past, "I told His Majesty about Tubo before, have you forgotten?"

Li Er touched his nose, "It's not as serious as you said."

Hearing this, Li Yunze's eyes sharpened, "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven of the Great Tang, and he wants to protect the people of the Great Tang."

Li Er immediately sternly said, "It's only natural, I will protect the people of the Tang Dynasty."

"Did your Majesty ever think that after the war with Tubo, the Tang army was defeated and the Tubo people broke through the prefectures and counties, and millions of Tang people were taken captive to the mountains as slaves. They were bullied, their lives were worse than death, and their lives were worse than livestock. Torture torture, even after death, they will be stripped to make musical instruments”

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Li Er excitedly stood up and waved his arms. "The Tang soldiers are invincible, and they will defeat all enemies!"

The indifferent Li Yunze looked at him coldly, then looked away after a while, took out the book and flipped through it.

The people in the carriage all looked over.

Li Er, whose face was as heavy as water, glared fiercely at the people in the carriage, "Get out!"

Everyone dared not listen, they all hurried to other carriages.

Panting heavily, Li Er sat down, put his hands on his knees and said nothing.

Li Yunze read a book, Li Er was in a daze.There was silence in the carriage, only the sound of rattling wheels rubbing against the rails could be heard.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Er quietly asked, "How strong is Tubo?"

"It's not that Tubo is that strong." After closing the book, Li Yunze looked over, "It's because the Tang army will gradually lose its combat effectiveness in the end."

"Impossible." Li Er shook his head again and again, "My Tang cavalry is invincible."

"It's right now, but what about later?"

Li Yunze's face turned slightly cold, "A hundred years later, there will be more and more people in the Tang Dynasty, and the land will not be enough. The noble clans, civil servants and military generals will start annexing the land, and the government soldiers will lose even their own land, so there is no fighting power to speak of. "

"When His Majesty was alive, everything was fine. But His Majesty is gone, who can guarantee that every future emperor will have the confidence and determination of His Majesty."

"The combat effectiveness of the Tang Army is strong. That's because they can stand out with their military exploits. Naturally, everyone strives to be the first." Li Yunze smiled, but his smile was a little cold. Under constant pressure and occupation, which government soldier is willing to die for Datang?"

He raised his hand to stop Li Er, who was about to speak, "Don't say it's impossible, the military merit system in Qin Dynasty was so strict, but when Zulong died, he collapsed immediately, and the old Qin people were unwilling to protect Qin, let alone Datang!"

Sitting on the chair, Li Er's face flushed, and the hands supporting his knees trembled uncontrollably.

With Li Chengqian's appearance, he didn't know how he would make troubles when he became the emperor. God knows what kind of monsters and monsters will appear in the future.

During the Jin Dynasty, all kinds of strange flowers emerged one after another, and Li Er was also frightened when he read the history books.

After a long silence, Li Er asked in detail, "Do you have a good plan?"

"beat!"

Li Yunze said bluntly, "Keep going outside, no matter how difficult the local conditions are, follow Zulong's way of desperately expanding outward. Only by making the cake bigger can we avoid involution. If the clan is more honorable, go outside. Enfeoffment, when the population increases, they will move out. Anyway, it is all land that has been acquired, so give as much as you want.”

"Fight outward, grab outward. Fight to the ends of the earth, to the end of the world. Let the dragon flag of the Tang Dynasty be bathed in the sun forever. Let the Tang Dynasty become the unparalleled giant Tang!"

Li Er was shocked by what he said, staring at Li Yunze in a daze, speechless.

He thought that by being a Heavenly Khan, he was already a peerless emperor comparable to Qin Huang and Han Wu, and felt that his achievements were unprecedented.

But it never occurred to him that compared to what Li Yunze said, the achievements he thought he had made in the past and the present are so insignificant.

"As long as Datang doesn't put his mind on the inward scrolling, but rolls all the contradictions outward, what is Tubo, there is no need to deliberately care about it."

Li Yunze leaned back on the back chair again, picked up the book and flipped through it, "I can assure Your Majesty that there is no country in this world that is more powerful than the Great Tang. What the Great Tang has to do is very simple. We used to govern the place, and the people whose land couldn't bear it went and cultivated their land for us."

"What kind of Ansa bandit, what kind of Germanic ice cream are all Izu special!"

The train galloped at a super-high speed of more than 30 kilometers per hour. It did not stop at any railway station along the way, not even at Tongguan. It went directly through the rebuilt and expanded city gate and went straight to Luoyang.

When the railway was built and the city gate was directly dismantled from Tongguan to pass through the city, many people expressed their opposition, thinking that this greatly affected Tongguan's defense capabilities.

When Li Er asked about this, Li Yunze's response was very simple, "If there is an enemy army that can reach the Tongguan city, it means that the Tang Dynasty's combat power is all over. It doesn't matter if there are any."

Relying on his strong self-confidence, Li Er resisted the pressure and agreed to the plan of the railway line passing directly through the city gate.

Afterwards, the train did not stop at any stop except for adding water, and it still rushed to Luoyang at a speed of [-] to [-] kilometers per hour.

Li Yunze and the others set off in the morning, and they arrived in Luoyang before midnight that night, which can be regarded as arriving in the morning and arriving at night.

And the train can run eight or nine hundred miles in one day, from Chang'an City to Luoyang City, this feat has brought great shock to the passengers on the train!
