Chang’an and Luoyang are the most important core cities of the Great Tang Empire. Between these two cities, there are 2-700 miles, which is a relatively long distance.

Every time Emperor travels to Luoyang, he has to spend half a month on the road. It takes more than a month to come and go. The commercial transportation fleet between the two cities also needs the same time to reach the destination.

The carriage volume of carriage is very limited, and it takes half a month to travel long distances. In order to guard against bandits and bandits, a large number of guards are needed to protect them along the way. Therefore, the cost of transportation is naturally high, and the price of goods naturally soars. Greatly increased the living burden of ordinary old people.

To change this situation, new transportation methods must be used. Railway is the best transportation method. Even if there is no train yet, the carriage transforms the wheels and travels on the rails. The efficiency can be doubled, thereby reducing transportation costs To benefit the 2 surnames in the two cities of Chang’an and Luoyang.

During the Sui Dynasty, Luoyang City was the capital city of the empire. Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty sent the people of the world and excavated the world-famous Grand Canal. This Grand Canal is different from the later Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, but the starting point has not changed. The location is at the intersection of Luoyang.

In this way, a large amount of materials in the northeast and southeast of the empire can be reached by water transportation to Luoyang City, which greatly reduces the pressure of land transportation and reduces the cost of transportation.

A poem by Pi Rixiu, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, was well written, ‘Ji Dao Sui died in this river, so far 1000 lilaitongbo. ‘This poem affirms the great effect of the Grand Canal on people’s livelihood.

Of course, whether the Sui Dynasty’s demise is the real reason. In addition to cutting the Grand Canal and wasting national power, it is also related to comprehensive factors such as the 3rd Goryeo and the Aristocratic Family’s power struggle. The rationality of replacing Sui Yang by oneself naturally degrades Sui Yang Di by a few points. Therefore, even if Sui Yang Di dug the Grand Canal for the people’s livelihood, it will be said to be his own pleasure.

This is obviously a paradox. For example, some people say that the demise of the Great Qin Empire is because Qin Shihuang built the ten thousand li Great Wall, and let the old 100 surnames complain. Is it possible to build the ten thousand li Great Wall for enjoyment, to stand on the Great Wall to see the scenery ? Obviously, the ten thousand li Great Wall is for the defense of the Huns and for the purpose of national defense, and the Grand Canal can only be used for the purpose of people’s livelihood. Emperor’s inspection of the people’s livelihood is also a natural thing, but it has been intentionally blackened.

Of course, Emperor Sui Yang was very happy, and he was too impatient to do things, regardless of the reality that the empire had just been established and the country was still unstable. The national power is exhausted, and the old 3 people suffer miserably, which leads to the demise of the country step by step.

If you do n’t go to the 3rd Goryeo, and just dig the Grand Canal, then the Great Sui is likely to be another scene.

History cannot be assumed. The Great Sui Dynasty is over. It is now the era of the Great Tang Empire. Moreover, the Great Tang Empire has been established for 100 years. The national strength is strong enough. In addition, the future technology brought by Li An is fully capable of laying The manpower, material and financial resources required by the railroad tracks.

After listening to the big joy, Li Longji immediately said: “Minister Li and the Ministry of Industry can go to the front line of Luoyang City to inspect the roads. 1 month later, they began to lay the road to Luoyang City.”

“This Small Official.”

Li An ordered with officials of the Ministry of Public Works.

Because laying rails is a good thing for the country and the people, and Li Longji has also made up his mind. For this reason, naturally, no minister raised any objections, and the new rail project was successfully passed.

The next banquet is to drink wine and enjoy singing and dancing, and compliment each other and talk about some happy things.

When it was getting late, Li An and the ministers were arranged to rest in the hot spring palace, and Li Longji took Yang Yuhuan to take a bath in Huaqing Pool, took a hot bath and then went to sleep, which naturally felt more comfortable than sleeping directly.

I do n’t know if I changed the place, or what happened. Li An could n’t sleep, so she could only lie on the bed and think about what to invent next.

Great Tang is now a World’s First power. No country has the ability to provoke Great Tang. However, Tang Army faces many opponents and all directions are enemies. Although the railway is laid, Tang Army ’s strategic mobility will be greatly improved. Promotion, but the use of backward cold weapons is still difficult to form an overwhelming advantage over the surrounding enemies, especially in plateau countries such as Tibet, it is difficult to conquer with cold weapons, and, in the cold weapons confrontation, the casualties on both sides will be great .

The development of artillery seems to be on the agenda. After all, black gunpowder has begun mass production. Since black gunpowder is available, of course, it is necessary to build the gun, so that the formidable power of black gunpowder can be better reflected on the battlefield, so that The enemy became terror-stricken at the news.

Regarding the casting of artillery, Li An still knows some common sense. As long as the most basic ideas are told to the relevant personnel of the military supervision, they can create a usable artillery. Li An believes that he can certainly make it.

Using an entire hour, Li An wrote all the knowledge about the artillery, as well as the drawings and technical parameters on the paper, and constantly modified it to ensure that the military personnel can understand it.

After midnight, Li An slept sleepily.

On the morning of the second day, after having breakfast, Li Longji and the ministers again took 2 cars and followed another parallel railroad track to return to Daming Palace.

Due to the bumps on the way, not at all suffered from the bumps, soaked a hot spring last night, Li Longji’s complexion looks very good, Yang Yuhuan’s complexion is very ruddy, obviously, Li Longji was spoiled last night.

After getting in the car, Li Longji lost Yang Yuhuan for a period of time, and then walked to the second car and sat in the second half of the car.

“Call Minister Li.”

Li Longji ordered the will.

Soon, Li An came in from the third car, in fact, there is no need to pass through. After all, the third car where Li An is located and the second car where Li Longji is located are only one step away. Away, when Li Longji spoke, Li An heard it all.

“What does Your Majesty tell us?”

Li An asked respectfully.

“Minister Li, please sit down!”

Li Longji waved his hand and motioned for Li An to sit down.

Seeing that Li Longji really let himself sit down, Li An was also polite and sat down directly, waiting for Li Longji’s question.

“Hey, Minister Li seemed to sleep well last night.”

Seeing Li An’s bloodshot eyes, Li Longji was slightly surprised.

“Your Majesty, This Small Official was busy drawing pictures last night and said it was late.”

“Drawing pictures? Minister Li must be doing research again! I wonder what is good?”

Li Longji immediately became interested.

“artillery.”

“Artillery? What is artillery?”

Li Longji was even more curious and looked forward in his eyes.

“Your Majesty, this Small Official has also mentioned before, is to invent a thing that can throw a large round iron ball beyond 1000 steps, causing huge damage to the enemy.”

Li An explained immediately.

“Oh, if it can really be invented, it can greatly enhance the strength of my Great Tang army, but, can this thing really be invented?”

Li Longji said happily, and at the same time, he still had some doubts.

“Your Majesty, This Small Official intends to use the thrust generated by the black gunpowder explosion to push the big iron ball to reach more than 1000 steps. In addition, the big iron ball can be a solid iron pimple or a flower bomb with black gunpowder in the middle. , As long as there is a slub-shaped metal cylinder, it can be launched. “

Li An explained the basic principles of artillery lightly.

“Artillery, very good, Minister Li can research & development as soon as possible, I wonder how I can help?”

Li Longji laughed asked.

“Your Majesty, This Small Official has made too many inventions, and the manpower is still not enough. It is better to let the military superintendent take charge of the development! This Small Official can provide guidance and assistance.”

Li An has also taken a look at the person in charge of military weapons, and wants to pull a part to oversee Research & Development.

Li Longji thought for a moment, nodded and said: “Okay, Minister Li’s proposal is very good. I agreed, and let the personnel of the military monitor be responsible for the development. I will allocate the best talent from the military monitor to the Research & Development Center. In the future, these people will be handed over to Minister Li for training. “

“Your Majesty rest assured that This Small Official will not let you down. Within one year, the artillery can be successfully developed, when the time comes, my Great Tang army can run amuck throughout the world.”

Li An said excitedly.

Later, Li Longji asked some more questions about the hot spring palace rail line, as well as the related problems of the reduced version of the car and the open-air car, and Li An all answered one after another, and Li Longji was quite satisfied with the answer.

After an hour, the entire group arrived outside the Chong Xuan Gate of Daming Palace, and a large group of people who got the news in advance greeted them outside.

Take Li Longji and Yang Yuhuan of the footsteps and return to Daming Palace. Li An goes directly to the military prison, holding Li Longji ’s decree, asking for the best talents, and even some of the equipment of the military prison. I moved to the Research & Development Center. Of course, since I came here, I naturally visited the military prison and praised the cold weapons produced by the Great Tang military prison.

Under the conditions of the existing technology, it is not easy for the weapon monitor to build such a good weapon. Li An admires this. However, with the eyes of future generations of Li An, of course, certain problems can be found. And find some ways to improve.

“This is Mingguang Armor! It’s so powerful.”

Li An picked up a piece of bright light armor and looked at it for a long time. He was full of praise for it and took the helmet off.

“Minister Li, this is the bright armor just made, ready to be sent to Anxi.”

The craftsman introduced in a whisper.

“Well, what you do is excellent. Do you know where the door of Mingguang armor is?”

Li An asked.

“Back to Minister Li, it’s the wrists and ankles. It is not convenient to cover the armor in these places, so it is easy to be injured by enemy swords.”

The craftsman opened the mouth and said.

“No, even if these places are injured, it can only be a minor injury, at least it will not endanger life, but if the cheeks and eyes suffer from swords, it will be seriously injured, or even life is not guaranteed, this is the real cover of Mingguang armor, yes The most vulnerable part. “

Li An put forward his views.

“Minister Li, if the cheeks and eyes are covered with armor, the soldiers will see nothing, how can they attack the enemy.”

The craftsman felt very puzzled.

“What would happen if a helmet could be built to cover the face and eyes?”

“If this is the case, it will greatly enhance the battle strength of my Great Tang soldiers and horses, and make the enemy army change color when they hear the Tang Army.”

The craftsman said excitedly.

“Very good, well said, This Official can invent such a mask, which can block the enemy’s sword, and at the same time, you can also see the face of the enemy. Your skills are good, follow me! I am in charge of it, you make it . “

Li An said seriously.

“Yes, Minister Li, the villain understands.”

Li An happily left the military equipment supervisor, took his satisfied technical talents, went to the Research & Development Center, and allocated a place for these people to let them be responsible for the Research & Development artillery, of course, including the new helmet.

With the popularity of Glassware mirrors, Li An has made a lot of money, more and more money is on hand, and it is still growing. After having money, it is more convenient for Li An Research & Development of various practical things.

Although Imperial Court has established the Research & Development Center in accordance with his requirements, Li An has also retained his own Research & Development Center. After all, Li An does not want to dedicate all the technologies to Imperial Court. Some Technology should be left to yourself.

As the weather continues to warm up, the business of the solar cooker has improved, and Li Longji’s small vault has gradually been enriched. In the past, in order to reward some money to the concubine, Li Longji did not know how much cold eyes he had been subjected to. Set aside some money from the small vault and buy the reward item. You no longer need to look at those advisors’ faces, which makes Li Longji’s mood very good. Of course, he also values ​​Li An even more.

And Li Longji values ​​Li An, which means that no one wants to use methods to frame Li An, because Li Longji needs him, so he will protect him by 1000 measures and let him continue to serve himself.

In the idle time, Li An let the craftsmen create a distillation crucible, which is of course used to make Distilled Liquor, and, with the improper improvement of distillation technology, not only Distilled Liquor can be produced, even, it can be produced. Alcohol, which can be used to disinfect and reduce wound infections, can be directly applied to the military field to reduce the casualties of soldiers.

Li An this life’s body is very good. For this reason, he still likes drinking very much, so he invented this spirit purification technology, but it was unexpectedly spread out, resulting in aristocrats and nobles, all came to buy wine and drink, this Li An made a lot of money unexpectedly, and even started the name of the spirits. Even the name is up, called 5 steps down, meaning that after drinking, you will fall after 5 steps.

Good wine must pay tribute to Emperor. Li An will never forget this. After the fame spreads, he will tribute a batch of spirits every few days as a royal wine, and it is completely free of charge. Divide money.

“Prince of Guangping, Fourth Son, you are stealing my wine again.”
