Chu Tang: Tell Li Er at the beginning that I am a time traveler

Chapter 692
From the mouths of the envoys of the Tang Dynasty, we can know that the population of the cannibals at this time may have been less than 500 million.

Although the authenticity of this data cannot be guaranteed, it should be true that the population of cannibals is not large.

"Five million, which is the population of five big cities. I think we can wipe out all of Dashi. What do you think?"

Some people were worried and said: "Your Majesty, the Tang Dynasty has not fought a war for nearly 200 years. Not to mention, this war is still thousands of miles away, will this..."

Li Chong: "We don't need thousands of miles. We can get supplies from Jiaozhi or Tianzhu."

"Who can I send?"

Li Chong: "Zhang Shiruo, what do you think?"

Zhang Shiruo was one of Li Zhong's ten martial arts examinations.

He came from a poor family and had no family background.

With such a person, in order to stand out, he would definitely be willing to break his bones to complete this task.

"Then when does Your Majesty plan to send troops?"

Li Chong also said: "Don't worry. You can train for half a year before sending out troops."

"How many soldiers?"

Li Chong: "Twenty thousand people are enough."

The Tang Dynasty now has a population of over [-] million.

2 people can still afford to waste it.

After Pei Du heard this, he felt relieved when he saw that the whole country was not going to do it.

Li Chong asked Pei Du: "What does Pei Aiqing think?"

Pei Du then said: "It may be easy to defeat them, but how to defend them is the biggest problem."

Li Chong: "You are right. People over there can do any crazy things for their beliefs. It is indeed not good to keep them."

But as long as all their people are killed, there will be no such problem.

Of course, Li Chong would not say such cruel words directly.

Instead he said: "When the time comes... we can just let the Tang Dynasty be responsible for its management."

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Li Chong also asked: "Do you think it's feasible?"

Everyone was silent, probably because they didn't want to be the one to take the blame.

It wasn't until Li Chong stared at Pei Du for a while that Pei Du had to say, "You can give it a try."

500 million households...

If this data is true.

Each of those 2 people only needs to kill 25 people.

of course!

It is estimated that some people will flee overseas, or to Africa.

By the time……

There should be a certain pirate force or something like that.

Well……

I can't control that much anymore. In short, I can eliminate as many as I can.

After careful consideration...

Li Chong felt that it would be better to eliminate them directly.

because……

If we don't seize the opportunity at this moment when there are only 500 million people left, then the cost of annihilating it in the future may be much higher than it is now.

can only say……

Try your best to give it a try.

What needs to be done now is to establish a good relationship with the other party on the surface.

Contain the feudal states of the Tang Dynasty so that the feudal states of the Tang Dynasty cannot attack them.

In fact...

Just wait for the envoys who are still in Dashi to complete the intelligence work.

By the time……

They can then attack.

Just when Li Zhong finished the meeting and was about to play with Li Zixin and Xiao Xiao, by coincidence, Li Bi also entered the palace and asked to see Li Zhong.

Li Chong had no choice but to put on his clothes and meet Li Bi outside again.

then……

Li Bi showed Li Zhong how to use radio to transmit images.

Good guy!
He really figured this thing out.

although……

It was not the TV set Li Zhong imagined at all.

Li Zhong could only say: "This thing Aiqing invented is very good."

"It's just...that's not what I want. What I want is a machine that can transmit more images superimposed together in a faster time."

"But...it's not bad!"

"What reward do you want, my dear?"

"I don't need any reward."

"Well! Then I won't give it to you."

"..."

"I regard the Li family as one family. It's a pity that no girl from the Li family can marry me. Otherwise, I would have made her the queen."

then……

Li Bi then went back, scratching his head with a puzzled expression.

no……

Is Your Majesty so close to them?

Or……

Is this just painting a bigger picture for their Li family?
After Li Bi left.

Li Chong also looked at the wireless transmission device.

If we talk about radio calls, we use the current changes caused by sound vibrations.

So this radio image transmission uses the current changes brought about by some photosensitive materials.

Just like the piezoelectric ceramic that is pressed down in a lighter.

Some materials, as long as light is shined on them, will generate some weak current.

If these weak currents can be utilized.

Then you can make such a device.

cough!
although……

Not very practical.

Because there is no such thing in later generations.

But I have to say that this is also an amazing invention.

When considering the development of this technology.

Then...

Li Chong devoted himself to this work again.

He had to reactivate the Tang craftsmen's research on science and technology.

First of all!

Money definitely has to be invested.

And it’s still very invested.

Secondly...

Just to see if they can solve some world-wide problems.

For example...

Rockets to the sky, moon landings, etc.

I'm not saying that you should go now, at least...

It's not wrong to be prepared in theory.

of course!

Such economic benefits are too low.

Next...

He still has to come up with more difficult problems with higher economic benefits.

In addition...

Li Zhong felt that it would not be possible to rely solely on the Li family to study things related to electricity.

therefore……

Next, I am also considering whether to publish more information about electricity research.

But it seems...

Apart from radio, they really don't do much research on electricity.

……

This year.

Li Chong paid attention to scientific research again, and the salaries of the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty were greatly improved.

This also has an effect, that is...

If you think you can't be an official, then become a craftsman quickly.

For some children of noble families, this does not seem to be of much benefit to them.

but!

It is the best for those who like to engage in research and want to be craftsmen.

even……

Nowadays, craftsmen who have just entered the Academy of Sciences can receive the treatment of a ninth-grade official.

Many people will come in without breaking their heads.

And it's very easy to get into the Academy of Sciences.

As long as you hand over something that you independently researched, it will be fine.

On the one hand, it can prove your practical ability.

On the other hand, it can also show your innovative ability.

soon……

After going through layers of screening, dozens of craftsmen joined the Academy of Sciences.

In addition to learning the knowledge you may have lacked before, next...

They also have to find their latest research direction.

For Datang at present...

What is most lacking is, of course, the study of the mechanical structure of firearms.Then...

In this academy of sciences, gunshots were heard.

……

17 is old.

The news that Saudi Arabia, that is, Dashiguo really had oil, also spread back to Li Chong.

of course!

I have to thank Big Eater for his help, otherwise...

Their drilling efforts won't go so smoothly.

As soon as the oil came out, the big man-eater started to regret it.

after all……

In the past, even the Eastern Roman Empire used one barrel less oil.

however……

Datang was able to drill a steady stream of oil from hundreds of meters underground.

Then if you want to say that they are not jealous, it is definitely impossible.

only……

At this time, because the country had just stabilized, we had to watch Datang pack all the oil in barrels.

This year……

Datang Yangzhou Shipyard also overcame numerous difficulties at this time and finally assembled the parts of the transport ship piece by piece.

Not surprisingly...

After only two to three months of testing, it should be ready for use.

In fact...

This big guy is really hard to build.

In order to build such a ship, the manpower and material resources invested in it are definitely no less than a scale of more than 10 people.

but……

But it's worth it.

Next...

Just look at its practicality.

be honest……

Li Zhong was more or less worried that it would fall apart.

after all……

This is the first large transport ship of [-] tons that they have built.

The length of the ship from head to tail alone is over 100 meters, and the width is nearly 20 meters.

The launch time was set for the beginning of spring of the following year.

and so……

This transport ship still has a lot of time to make adjustments.

Check to see if there are any welds that are not in place. Also, see if there are any facilities on the ship that are not installed in place.

By the way... the ship is even equipped with a generator.

but……

It can only be said that it is not possible without the equipment.

after all……

If there is an accident at sea and some parts need to be re-welded, you can't just take a hammer or a nail and hit it a few times and it will be repaired.

It can be said that this ship is full of the highest and latest science and technology of the Tang Dynasty.

With the blessing of these latest science and technologies, the crew can live very comfortably on it.

even……

Li Zhong felt that if he made some improvements, he could even move his family up here.

Of course!
Moving your home onto a boat has actually been around since ancient times.

It seems that there is such a ship on the route from Chengdu to Yangzhou.

A classic boat with a purely wooden structure.

Probably a ship like a building ship.

Li Zhong could only say that he had never seen it himself.

but……

He had seen it in ancient books.

It seems to be what happened in the Tang Dynasty.

This year's New Year's Eve.

no doubt.

Li Zhong must be present in person.

On the one hand, it is to see how the ship is completed and whether it can really be sailed on the sea.

On the other hand, we also have to encourage the crew members who will go out to sea next.

A total of more than 200 people can live on the ship.

But in fact, if you really want to say that a ship only needs a dozen or twenty people, that's about it.

of course!

This is for later generations of ships.

As for the ships at this moment, because there is no GPS navigation, you are responsible for observing astronomy and determining the direction, so you must bring one or two with you.

Also, your ship cannot be without the ability to fight back. If it is targeted by pirates or other ships, you cannot just sit back and wait for death.

and so……

Among these 200 people, nearly one-fifth are responsible for protecting ships with force.

Li Chong also brought them brand new weapons.

Equip this ship with a Maxim machine gun, now called a Li heavy machine gun. In this way, it feels like even if dozens more enemy ships come, it will at least have some ability to protect itself.

In addition...

Li Zhong also suggested that some barbed wire could be placed on the edge of the ship.

As the saying goes...

Have you never eaten pork or seen a pig running?
In fact, Li Chong still has experience in preventing pirates.

As for saying...

If the enemy is not a pirate, but someone who wants to sink you.

It's okay!
the first!

It is made of steel and is not easy to break.

second!

This ship adopts a double-layer structure. Even if the outer layer of skin is damaged, as long as the inside is intact, nothing will happen.

The ability to resist artillery shells should still be very strong.

It would not be like casually taking a cannonball and sinking the ship directly.

Li Chong asked Zhang Shiruo to bring 40 people here to familiarize themselves with the environment.

If the day of war really comes.

Then this transport ship should at least be able to transport thousands or even tens of thousands of people for a feast no matter how much it burns.

of course!

It doesn’t mean that the more people who are lucky, the better.

Just like now, 200 people are actually crowded enough.

Each room, which is less than ten square meters, has to accommodate three or four people.

This shows that the environment is not so good.

Maybe by some time, there will be no danger at all on the sea.

At that time...

Just slowly subtract from these 200 people.

By the time……

Maybe it can really give these people the feeling of being at home on the boat.

After walking around the accommodation area, I can only say that it feels okay, and then...

Li Zhong went to the engine and other places to inspect.

In order to improve the efficiency of transporting oil, it is best to use pipes for pumping.

to this end……

There are also many oil pumps on this boat.

In addition...

Also add a heating system.

Because once oil cools down, it becomes less fluid.

In order to pump the oil, you have to properly heat the oil in the pipe.

At last……

There are also fresh water storage rooms and so on.

Li Chongdu visited these places one by one.

We must solve all the problems on the ocean on land.

even……

To ensure that nothing happens to the ship.

This year……

Li Chong had to invite some shipbuilding craftsmen and sailors who had been to sea from Guangzhou, Liao and Jiaozhi to visit and give guidance.

The reason is to see if there is anything else they haven't considered.

otherwise……

If this boat is pushed into the water, then it will be difficult to modify and fix many things.

As for technical confidentiality.

This is something you don’t need to worry about.

after all……

They definitely can't see the key technologies.

February!

The weather had just warmed up a bit, and as the boats were launched, huge waves were set off on the sea.
