Miniature World: I Was Treated As An Ancient God

Chapter 73 An epoch-making means of transportation: Tang State Railway!

“This country is so domineering and arrogant that it doesn’t even allow begging. Isn’t there a way for those homeless people to live?” Some people gritted their teeth and felt that Tang Kingdom was simply a brutal country, and even beggars were not allowed to exist. , It’s too Damn it for the decoration of Taiping who has worked so hard.

“You know shit.”

The Tang country residents looked at the group of people, “As long as you have hands and feet, you can’t starve to death in Tang country, and asking them to build railways will give them a chance to work, you know? Now the whole Tang country is up and down, everywhere. All kinds of infrastructure projects can find a job casually, and it is impossible to starve to death.

“Impossible, what are you joking, do you mean that there is no starvation in Tang country now?” When these words came out, everyone was shocked.

After all, even if it is a powerful country of treasures, it would not dare to say that its own country will not starve to death.

Because there are occasional natural and man-made disasters, such as floods, droughts, plagues and other disasters, once these disasters occur, it is unknown how many people will be displaced and corpses will be scattered everywhere.

But now Tang Guo actually won’t starve to death, this is not a joke, or something.

“It’s not a joke, because this is a gift from the gods. The gods have given us a good look, so that we are free from famine and no longer need to starve.”

When the Tang residents talked about the gods, they immediately showed a sincere look. After all, no matter how much they revered the gods who solved the famine in the Tang country, it was not an exaggeration.

God?!

Everyone’s eyes flickered. To be honest, before they came to Tang, they had heard some information about Tang. Tang claimed to be the country of gods, a country blessed by ancient gods.

But they didn’t believe it very much, and felt that it must be the lord of Tang who was bragging. How could there be such creatures as the ancient gods in this world.

Therefore, it must be some kind of special world prop that made this happen in Tang.

But no matter what the truth is, it is certain that Tang Guo has astonishing financial resources. The ability to make the 20 billion people starve is enough to make the country of treasures discouraged.

If they can snatch such a world item, then the national power of the country of treasures will probably reach a new level.

“What did you mean by the railway just now?”

The third prince, Zhao Feng, suddenly noticed the strange term that the uncle said. It was the first time he had heard of railways, which made him very curious.

“Haha, this is your first time in Tang country. It’s normal to not know the railway. It is now the main means of transportation in our Tang country. We basically have to go to the station, take a carriage, and go to major cities in the country.” The old man stroked his white beard and smiled.

“Why do you need to build a railway to ride a horse-drawn carriage?”

A group of people looked confused.

After all, according to their understanding, the so-called horse-drawn carriage is a horse that drives a cart and gallops constantly on the road, but there is no need to build any railway at all, ordinary dirt roads are enough.

“Mouth, the station is in front of you, you can go and see what’s going on.

The old man enthusiastically led everyone to the station in front.

what?!

The third prince, Zhao Feng, and the others quickly headed to the station in Heihe City, and immediately they saw a huge building appear in front of them.

It seems that tens of thousands of people come and go at any given moment.

At the same time, goods from all over the world gather in this place, which is not only the center of crowd gathering, but also the center of goods gathering. It is simply the busiest and busiest place in Heihe City.

Immediately, they saw that there was a road in front of them that was basically constructed of steel and stretched straight into the distance, with no end in sight.

And on this steel road stood a strange object, which was constructed from one carriage, at least a dozen carriages, and it looked like a black snake.

At the head of these carriages is a huge horse, whose whole body is flushed red, as if it was condensed by raging flames.

Numerous passengers dragged their luggage on and off these carriages.

Even these strange carriages are not just as simple as one, there are more than a dozen of them standing side by side at the same time, looking extremely amazing, completely shocked Zhao Feng and others.

“This, is this the carriage?”

Zhao Feng and others were stunned. When had they ever seen such a means of transportation, it was simply unheard of.

“That’s right, this is the special means of transportation in our Tang country – the carriage.”

The old man proudly said: “Don’t look at it as ordinary, but it can reach a speed of 600 kilometers per hour, and if it is at full speed, it can even reach a thousand kilometers, but most of the time it travels at a speed of 600 kilometers per hour.

And Heihe City is 20,000 kilometers away from the capital Chang’an, but if you run around day and night, it is estimated that you can reach it in a day and a half. ”

what?!

As soon as these words came out, the third prince Zhao Feng and others were even more shocked. They couldn’t believe what they heard. The distance of 20,000 kilometers could only take a day and a half to reach. This is too much. Exaggerated.

It was so exaggerated that they couldn’t believe the old man’s words, and even thought the other party was bragging.

But when he saw the serious faces of the old men, they knew that the other party was not lying.

“Just kidding, at such a fast speed, if you are transporting soldiers, doesn’t it mean that you can rush from the capital to the most frontier cities in a day and a half? Even if there is any turmoil in the frontier cities, there will be a large number of reinforcements quickly. When you arrive, you can suppress it in an instant.”

Someone saw the military use of these railroads.

To know why it is so difficult to rule a huge empire, it is because the territory is too vast, which makes the troops scattered. In this way, if there is a rebellion in a certain place, it is difficult for the central army to appear and rescue in time.

If there is no such railway, I am afraid it will take at least a few months, or even a year, to arrive.

After all, the army is also a human being and needs to rest.

Moreover, when the army travels, it also needs to carry a variety of logistics, which will naturally drag down the speed of the march.

But now the emergence of carriages and railways has changed everything. All the soldiers and logistics materials can be transported to the carriages, and they can be pulled directly to another place in a day and a half, and the soldiers will not be tired.

There is no doubt that this is definitely an epoch-making mode of transportation.

If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed that such a vehicle existed in the world.
