Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 879
East Palace.

It was already late at night, and behind the curtain were bright lights and candles, and a figure was lightly reflected on the curtain.After returning from the Weihe Workshop, Li Chengzhao couldn't sleep, and he didn't care about studying, so he simply took out the toy car from his childhood.

The cart is made of wood, and the wheels are also wood.In addition to the trolley, there are matching wooden tracks.To be honest, when he was a child, he really didn't know what this kind of track was. He didn't understand it until he took a track carriage with his father.

Only then did he truly realize the greatness of his father, who had prepared for today's events more than ten years ago.In other words, the father had planned to lay rail carriages in Guanzhong on a large scale more than ten years ago, not on a whim.

What is even more frightening is that the Turks were still there more than ten years ago.Sometimes Li Chengzhao even wondered whether his father had formulated the development plan for the Tang Dynasty in decades to come.Otherwise, how to explain the cement road extending in all directions, and how to explain the fast and convenient rail carriage.

What is the meaning behind this makes Li Chengzhao sweat every time he thinks about it.To put it simply, in order to lay such a road, it is necessary to activate the civil servants on a large scale.But more than ten years ago, it was the chaotic times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and the vitality of the people was seriously injured. How could they still squeeze the people?

At that time, the Turks were powerful and border troubles were everywhere, so how could they develop their internal affairs with peace of mind?

Unless, from the very beginning, the father had planned everything, to destroy the Turks and take the Turkic people for labor.

Otherwise, Li Chengzhao couldn't think of other possibilities.

But the key question is, how was the father so sure at that time that he would be able to destroy the Turks?

He couldn't figure this out.After much deliberation, he only came to one conclusion, and that was his father's self-confidence.Apart from this, he couldn't think of anything else.

pat!

Several toy carriages have snap buttons at the bottom so they can be snapped together.Connect the front of the car to several carriages, and lay out the toy wooden track in a circle.

"Missing a corner?" He saw that a piece of track was missing, and there was damage on it, and he immediately understood that it was a good job done by the mouse.

"never mind."

He put the car on the track.The wheels and the track are concave and convex, it is easy to fit, and it will not derail.Of course, referring to this little toy.

Gently pull the front of the car, and the carriage behind will follow along.When he played with this toy when he was a child, he just found it novel, because it was completely different from the pony carriage.After learning of the existence of that steam engine, he is not feeling novelty now, but full of anticipation.

If the steam engine can really be built and installed on the front of the car, relying on that power, maybe it is really possible to do what the emperor said.

"Amazing." He gently squeezed the front of the car and said thoughtfully.

Now he really understands why his father has always valued craftsmen and made a decree not to discriminate against craftsmen. It turns out that if such institutions are used properly, they will indeed change too many things.

Thinking of this, he has already made a plan, and he must follow his father to understand the university knowledge in this area.

Li Zhiyun wants to write a book, and the title of the book is simply "Science".The reason for this name is because the knowledge in his mind is very fragmented and unsystematic.He intends to write the actual creation while supplementing related theories later.In this way, it can help him remember something.

For example, when it comes to steam engines, he will draw a schematic diagram on paper, and then make notes for each part.For example, what is this thing, what is its function, how big and long should it be made, what is the best material for it, how should it be made, and so on.

This is mainly for the convenience of straightening out the train of thought.After so many years, he can't remember many things very vaguely.Simply give up the theory and start with reality.When something is created, try to find relevant theoretical supplements.

In this case, once this book is released to the public in the future, maybe people who can understand it can learn something and stand out.

It is not advisable to work behind closed doors, let alone put this book on the shelf, otherwise all his efforts will be in vain.

What's more, ordinary people don't have the ability to make this thing.

Of course, when it comes to ordnance, he wrote it in another book.

The days of ease did not last too long. Soon after, Li Daoxuan, the governor of Fuqi, sent someone to report that Tubo invaded the black party and clashed with the Tang army. Currently, the two armies are confronting each other in Wuhai.

The black party item is under the jurisdiction of the Fuqi Dudufu, and it belongs to the meat on the cutting board of the Tang Dynasty, which must be used to supplement labor anytime and anywhere.What's more, Tubo fought without declaring it, because it didn't take Datang seriously.

Tai Chi Temple.

General Li Zhiyun put down the report, and said in a deep voice: "I think you all know about Tubo's invasion of the Governor's Mansion of Fuqi. I have only one meaning, and that is to fight!"

Wen Yanbo came out, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I have read the recent news from Tubo. They have been expanding their strength and annexing the plateau tribes. Their strength is growing step by step. If our army rashly fights in a foreign land, it may be at a disadvantage."

"What do Wen Aiqing think?" Li Zhiyun asked.

Wen Yanbo said: "It's better, send someone to reprimand and order them to retreat immediately."

"Hahaha." Yu Chigong laughed, and then sarcastically said: "The enemy has already attacked, why are you reprimanding them, should we send an envoy to tell them, let us wait and see!"

After cursing, he directly ignored Wen Yanbo's angry face, and bowed to the emperor instead: "Your Majesty, the Fuqi Dudu Mansion and Mantou Dudu Mansion, the two places have already trained more than [-] troops, and they have adapted to the local conditions and conditions, so they can fight a battle."

"I think so too." Li Zhiyun immediately ordered: "Pass the decree to Li Daoxuan and ask him to do it for me to hurt Tubo!"

"According to the order!"

Originally, eliminating Tubo was part of Li Zhiyun's plan, but his original intention was to wait for the two major governors in the hometown of Tuyuhun to train an army of [-] capable of adapting to the plateau climate before officially attacking Tubo.What he wanted was not for Tubo to surrender, but for them to die.

However, since Tubo is looking for death by himself now, he will naturally not let it go.It is unrealistic for an army of [-] to attack Tubo, but the Tang Dynasty has strong soldiers and strong horses, and abundant food and grass, so it can kill Tubo with energy.

Wuhai, under Jishi Mountain, the Tubo camp is endless.

In the past few years, Songtsan Gampo was really proud. He killed one enemy after another, annexed one tribe after another, and moved the capital to Laos. Reconcile, form an alliance, and expand the land for Tubo.

Gradually, he began to focus on Tang Chao.

The news that Lu Dongzan brought back was that the Tang Dynasty should not be an enemy, but only a friend.But Songtsan Gampo felt that the Tang army did not have an advantage in fighting in Tuyuhun, and he wanted to find out what the Tang Dynasty's monarchs and ministers meant.If they are not strong enough, then they will take the opportunity to occupy the surrounding land of Wuhai. If they are strong enough, they will have to fight with them to count.

Taking [-] steps back, even if he can't fight, he can still retreat to the plateau. He doesn't believe that Tang Jun can adapt to the climate and soil of the plateau.

In this regard, most of the ministers in Tubo were opposed to such a risky offense against the Tang Dynasty, and Lu Dongzan tried to persuade him several times, but Songtsen Gampo did not listen.

He still decided to find an excuse to attack the underworld and see how Tang Jun would react.

Tang Jun's reaction did not exceed his expectations, and he stood up to confront the Tubo army.
