Both Li Yu and Li Qiu are only 16-17 years old. They are half-aged teenagers. They are full of energy and eager to communicate. The people at this age still carry a little innocence and do not see the society thoroughly enough. Especially the dark and cruel side of society.

As the two Emperor’s Grandsons most valued by Li Longji, Li Yu and Li Qiu temporarily showed signs of confrontation, but instead were full of friendship between brothers. This seems to indicate the battle between the fathers and temporarily not at all affected them. Even, they may not quite clear the fight against their parents.

Of course, the most important reason is that they do n’t have many opportunities at all. They do n’t have a deep exchange of ideas with their parents. Since they were sensible, they lived together in the Hundred Descendants Courtyard and played together. Growing together, and their fathers and uncles lived in the ten king’s house, Crown Prince Li Heng lived in the Imperial Palace and was monitored by Emperor.

Li Longji’s good intentions have allowed Emperor’s Grandson to be separated from the prince prematurely, thus avoiding the struggle between the princes affecting Emperor’s Grandson, and also protecting the innocence of Emperor’s Grandson to a certain extent. Participate in a brutal struggle.

But the general trend is unstoppable. As we grow older, Emperor’s Grandson will know more and more things and understand the truth. As the mind gradually matures, it will inevitably be invested in the battle of rights Among them, this is the necessity of history and the necessity of people’s hearts.

At the moment, Li Yu and Li Qiu know more or less of the things in the hall, and understand their respective situations better, but they haven’t seen enough of them. In addition, they haven’t yet experienced the pleasure that the rights bring to people, naturally There is no strong drive for contention.

In this case, the pure brother feelings, as it should be by rights, prevailed, allowing them to get along peacefully.

Li An sincerely hopes that the feelings of their 2 brothers can continue in this way, and never fight like their parents, but he knows clearly that there are many things that are no longer under his control.

At this moment, what he can do is to use this learning opportunity to further enhance the feelings of the 2 brothers, so that even if there is a future battle, it will not be too tragic and unsympathetic.

However, with the excellent tradition of the old Li family father and son brother, Li An really does not have much confidence and can only do his best.

The scenery at the foot of Lishan Mountain is beautiful, especially at night. When the crescent is sandwiched between two peaks in the distance, the scenery presented is even more intoxicating.

Eating fragrant game, looking at the intoxicating scenery, and the silhouette of the servants around the busy building tents, Li An’s mood is heroic, and Li Yu and Li Qiu’s mood is also quite good.

“Ask you a question, if you become Emperor in the future, how would you govern this country?”

Seeing not others all around, Li An asked 2 people.

Li Yu and Li Qiu glanced at each other for a long time, and they dared not speak. The questions asked by Li An frightened them. After all, when Emperor cannot be assumed, as long as he has not been on the Emperor ’s throne, he cannot be said to be on his own What will happen to Emperor in the future, otherwise, once it reaches Li Longji’s ear, the consequences will be unimaginable. This is the emperor’s most taboo thing, and no one can assume it.

See 2 people dare not answer this question, Li An laughed, said softly: “Then ask another way, if you will become prime minister in the future, how will assist Emperor to govern Jiangshan, this question can always be answered!”

Li Qiu looked at Li Yu and asked Li Yu to answer first.

“Minister Li, if I become prime minister in the future, I will definitely make an all-out effort to assist Emperor, encourage agriculture and mulberry, promote filial piety, diligently love the people …”

Li Yu said a lot, but there was nothing to say, all of it was nonsense, and it did not extend to any substantive issues. Of course, it may also be that he did not know too much about the specific situation of Great Tang. I do n’t know where to start. .

“Fourth Son, what if you were prime minister?”

Li An looked towards Li Qiu, asking softly.

Li Qiu glanced at Li Yu and said softly: “Minister Li, I think Prince of Guangping said just now, if I were prime minister, it would be the same.”

Li An is slightly sighed. It seems that the question is too big to ask. I can’t ask the result I need.

“My Great Tang has been in Anxi for many years, but Imperial Court has to allocate a large amount of wealth from the treasury every year in order to continue its existence in Anxi, and it has increased year by year. Burden, what would you do if you were prime minister? “

Li An asked Anxi first, and asked two Emperor’s Grandson to answer.

“Minister Li, my Great Tang has only 20000 soldiers and horses in Anxi, but Anxi has so many small countries with acknowledgement allegiance and a large population. As long as the Anxi countries increase their tribute a little, it is enough to feed the soldiers and horses of the Great Tang. Why? What if I want to transfer money from the treasury? So, if I were prime minister, I would suggest that Emperor let the Anxi countries increase taxes and be responsible for providing enough money for my Great Tang soldiers and horses, so that I do n’t have to transfer money from the treasury. “

Li Yu’s domineering answer seemed as if in his eyes, the so-called Ansi Subsidiary Country were muddy, as long as Imperial Court said a word, he would obediently pay money to support the army of the Great Tang Imperial Court.

“Minister Li, I think Prince of Guangping is right. Since all countries in Anxi have already acknowledged allegiance Great Tang, they should pay taxes to me. Whatever, they always let me protect them, but they almost do n’t have to pay. Taxes have led to my 20000 soldiers in Great Tang, and I still need Imperial Court to allocate materials to support each year. “

Li Qiu once again agrees with Li Yu, and if their father can agree, the Great Tang Imperial Court will not have so much infighting.

However, from their answers, it can also be seen that their thinking is still very naive, did not see the essence of the problem, did not see why the Great Tang Imperial Court would rather spend a lot of money on their own, and would not let Anxi small countries bear the Great Tang soldiers Horse money supply.

The inconvenience of transportation is the biggest reason. The distance from Chang’an to Anxi is nearly ten thousand li roads. Such a long distance makes it difficult for Great Tang to control it there with strong means. Maintaining 20000 Armed Forces in Anxi The price, equivalent to the 200,000 soldiers and horses in the interior, is extremely financially demanding, and no matter how elite the 20000 soldiers and horses, they can withstand many strong enemies. Once all the Anxi countries rebel and connect Aab Caliphate in the west and Tibet in the south, Then the soldiers and horses of the Great Tang simply cannot resist, and losing Anxi will become inevitable.

If you want to maintain Anxi, you must get the support of Ansi Subsidiary Country, let them see that with the Great Tang, they can be protected and hardly need to pay anything, only the nominal acknowledge allegiance is enough, so, Anxi For small countries, why not acknowledge allegiance Great Tang? The price that Great Tang has to pay is to finance 200,000 soldiers and horses, and to maintain the 20000 elites stationed in Anxi. How long it can last depends on how long Great Tang’s finances can support.

The mistakes made by Li Yu and Li Qiu are obviously too superstitious for the strong Armed Forces of Great Tang. They believe that crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood wherever the Great Tang iron army went, it is difficult to resist any force. The small countries simply did not dare to resist, but they did not know that although Anxi is a small country, there are powerful Tibet in the south and Aab Caliphate in the west. These two countries definitely have the strength to challenge the Great Tang. , Great Tang will inevitably lose Anxi.

“You propose to increase taxes in the small countries of Anxi, are you not afraid of their rebellion against Great Tang?”

Li An asked seriously.

“I, the Great Tang Iron Army, are brave and invincible. Which small country dares to provoke at will, and if it dares to provoke, it will directly send troops to destroy it.”

“I agree with Prince of Guangping.”

Li An shook the head, continue to ask: “If these small Anxi countries unite and invite Aab Caliphate in the west and Tibet in the south to send troops to fight against the Great Tang, what about the ending?”

“Then quick sword cuts through tangled hemp, before the arrival of Aab Caliphate and Tibet reinforcement Armed Forces, wipe out all the small countries in Anxi, and then fight against them, defeat them separately.”

“Prince of Guangping is domineering and supportive.”

Li An hearing this wanted to laugh even more. These 2 boys are too cute. They actually regarded Tibet and Aab Caliphate as nothing, but this should also be an old saying, newborn calves do not fear tigers. At least the spirit is commendable.

“Can’t you think of a better way? For example, immigration, improving traffic conditions, internal reforms, making the Great Tang richer, adopting divisive measures, splitting up Tibet and Aab Caliphate, these all are ways, why must the army be used? What? It ’s important to know that attacking the heart is first, and siege is the next. “

Li An Education Road.

“Yes, Minister Li, we are taught.”

“Minister Li, what do you mean by improving traffic conditions and how to improve it? Are you going to lay rails?”

Li An nodded longed for: “Yes, in the future must lay a track directly to Anxi. In this way, the connection between Anxi and Beijing will become very convenient, and the financial pressure will be greatly reduced.”

Anxi ’s huge financial burden is mainly due to the inconvenience of transportation. Often 100 denier rice is transported, and 90 deniers will be consumed on the road. After arriving in Anxi, only 10% will be left. If the railway runs through, the consumption on the road will be huge The reduction, even negligible, will naturally greatly reduce the financial pressure. In addition, after the transportation is convenient in the rear, more soldiers and horses can be invested in Anxi to better control Anxi.

“Minister Li, is the rail really so powerful? I really want to see the rail as soon as possible.”

Li Yu’s eyes are all looking forward, as is Li Qiu.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take you to the railroad tracks tomorrow afternoon, OK?”

“Okay, that’s great.”

Li Yu and Li Qiu are very excited.

Li An smiled warmly and looked towards 2 people and asked, “Do you know 10000 Armed Forces, how long will it take to arrive in Anxi from Beijing?”

“Well, it takes about 3 months to half a year!”

Li Yu clearly understands the situation in this regard and directly replied.

Li An said with a smile: “Then you know, if you lay the rails, and then my invention succeeds, how long will it take for 10000 Armed Forces to arrive in Ansi?”

“I don’t know, how long will it take?”

“It only takes 5 to 1 days at most, how fast is it?”

Li An said proudly.

“Minister Li, how is this possible, this is nearly 20 times faster? The rails are really so powerful?”

“Minister Li, I really want to watch the railroad tracks now.”

The transportation efficiency is nearly 20 times, which obviously frightens Li Yu and Li Qiu. Once the train succeeds, the effect is so cool. Even if the steam locomotive cannot be built, and the modified carriage is put on the rails, the speed and transportation volume are the same. It will also greatly increase and increase the efficiency by 2 times, which is more than enough.

“Look at you urgently. Tomorrow afternoon, we will definitely let you see the rails. In addition, we will come out at this time in order to design a rail from the north gate of Daming Palace to the hot spring palace. The railroad tracks will extend from here to Luoyang City. “

Li An’s longing for introduced.

“Minister Li, Luoyang City is less than 1000 miles from Chang’an. If it is paved with railroad tracks, it can be reached in a day.”

Li Yu looked towards Li An in surprise. He had been to Luoyang City once. He followed the team of Li Longji grandiose and walked for half a month. That was a tiring one!

“Yes, it doesn’t take a day. If it’s fast, only half a day is enough.”

Li An answered yes.

Li Yu and Li Qiu looked at each other and looked towards Li An with an incredible expression, which had seriously exceeded their cognitive range, shocking them beyond description, and at the same time, making them feel that this trip It ’s worth it, as long as they follow Li An, they will definitely have more insight. In addition, they want to see the railroad tracks and experience the vehicles that can run on the railroad tracks.

“Okay, it’s getting early, let’s go back to rest! After rest, we will be more energetic tomorrow.”

Li An took 2 people back to the camp to rest.

The space in the camp is not very large, but it is more than enough for 3 people. As far as the entire team is concerned, their three people are already the most luxurious.

For the sake of safety, not everyone can sleep in the tent. Duan Xiushi ’s soldiers and Li Yu ’s guards are all divided into 2 groups to guard the night and night respectively to ensure the safety of the Danger Land of the camp. More than ten elite soldiers with weapons are responsible for guarding, Li An is not worried about danger.

Li An has been used to fighting and has lived in a tent, so he slept in the tent and soon fell asleep. Li Yu and Li Qiu have never lived in such a simple tent. Do n’t want to fall asleep in a short time.

However, in order not to disturb Li An’s rest, Li Yu and Li Qiu not at all talked, but each looked towards the top of the tent, thinking about their own concerns. Although they are young, they are also interested.

Nothing happened overnight, and in the early morning of the second day, after briefly eating some breakfast, Li An took the team back along the same road and made further inspections.

Since most of the feasible roads were explored yesterday, the speed of the team’s travel was significantly accelerated. At noon, it had already reached the starting position.
