Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

Chapter 226: Great Yan is developing so rapidly, Li Shimin doesn’t understand anything!

"Eat and say goodbye!"

The old man said and stood up.

The few strong young men around him also stood up immediately.

After resting, it’s natural to go on the road.

Li Shimin quickly stood up to see him off.

This is the case in the Jianghu. People come and go, people are sent off and picked up, and most of them look familiar.

At this moment, the waiter also brought the food.

Li Shimin breathed out softly, looked at their backs, sat down, looked at Pei Ji, Fang Xuanling and others who were a little stunned, and pursed their lips.

"We will arrive at Yanyun City in a few days. This... this speed. Unimaginable..."

Not disturbing each other has really greatly improved traffic efficiency.

but!

Now, it’s gone….

For a moment, they felt that the world was quiet.

Li Shimin picked up the chopsticks.

Pei Ji also looked at the cement road, feeling a little distressed.

Things were just as the old man said. They had just walked forward and within two seconds of burning incense, they saw workers laying a cement road.

Cheng Yaojin also echoed the emotion.

Fang Xuanling stood up excitedly.

Three carriages drove onto the cement road one after another.

"The cement highway designed by Emperor Dayan is not bad at all."

It can be seen that the cost is staggering!

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Cheng Yaojin and others also shook their heads and couldn't believe it.

This multiple increase is really incredible.

This so-called cement road has four lines drawn on it, dividing the road into four parts.

even,

This cement road seems to be wider than the previous official roads.

"Let's eat. If it's true or false, we'll find out when the time comes."

Empress Changsun breathed a long sigh of relief, because it sounded like there would be no need for bumps soon.

To know,

Calculated in this way, the journey from Pu County to Yanyun City is only within ten days.

Come on, two parts.

Passing vehicles, horses, and pedestrians all bypassed the working group that was laying the cement road and climbed directly onto the cement road.

Li Shimin was extremely surprised.

"I didn't expect that, Your Majesty, it has only been a year. I remember the last time Keming and I saw the cement road, the cement road in Yanyun City had not been laid yet. Now...it has been laid here. Got it!"

But if it goes according to the past, no one can arrive in a month or two?

Even if it lasts for a month or two, it is still a journey under the stars and at night, rushing on the road without rest.

"Let's go up. With this road, we can really go much faster."

"It's fake, Your Majesty." Pei Ji lowered his voice. Shen Sheng said boldly: "No matter how fast Da Yan is, he can't do this!"

He had already begun to calculate the cost in his mind. Even if such a large official road was reduced by one foot, it would still be enough for pedestrians.

but,

Especially in the second and third parts, the line in the middle is red, which is incomprehensible.

but,

After all, the previous official roads were said to be official roads, but in fact they were just ordinary soil, just divided.

Li Shimin ordered.

"Dayan...how did you build such a wide cement road? Isn't it a waste?"

Creak, creak, creak.

"Isn't this road too wide?"

"Your Majesty, it's true! Look, the concrete road!!"

and,

Suddenly, the carriage, which was creaking and creaking before, suddenly became quiet h

After all, the current craftsmanship of the Tang Dynasty means that even if it is a royal carriage, no matter how good the carriage is, the wooden structure is already destined to make various noises as long as it bumps.

"This speed... Great Yan's development is really unexpected!"

Anyway, it’s all out. Whether it is true or not will be verified soon.

He didn't want to say more.

Go ahead, two parts.

Everyone has eaten,

After resting for a while, we set off.

At that time, it didn't matter how wide the official roads were, but even so, the width of the official roads divided by the imperial court was still not as wide as the current cement roads.

"I'm going here, I'm coming over there, hey... it's interesting!"

Li Shimin rubbed his chin, looked at the passers-by on the road, and said with a smile.

Fang Xuanling nodded.

"Yes, this design, although simple, is really useful!"

"and…."

As he spoke, Fang Xuanling narrowed his eyes and glanced back.

"And, Your Majesty, Keming, Yaojin, have you seen the group of workers just now? Most of the workers laying the cement road are Turkic and Goguryeo slaves!"

"Although they are packed very tightly, you can still see the difference."

"It's probably because there are too many Turks from Dayan and Goguryeo slaves. Hahaha... that's why it was built so wide. Otherwise, there would be too many slaves to use it."

Fang Xuanling guessed.

Li Shimin, Pei Ji and others were shocked when they heard this.

indeed!

This explanation seems to be correct!

There are so many Turkic slaves. If they are not allowed to work more, will they be kept in vain?

Dayan... is really powerful!

what is this?

Artificial prostitution for free?

and also,

These cement productions should also use Turkic and Goguryeo slaves, right?

It is said that,

Coal mines, iron mines, steel mills and other places that require a large number of manpower have a large number of Turkic and Goguryeo slaves.

"This Great Yan, attacking the Turks is really profitable." Pei Ji smiled bitterly and had to sigh.

"Who says it's not?" Fang Xuanling was really envious.

There are so many free workers in Dayan. If Datang could have them, people would have done the water transportation, irrigation, city walls, quarrying and other projects.

But... Datang did not...

I can only be greedy.

Who told Da Yan to have real abilities?

Hey.

However, it was at this time.

Suddenly, there was yelling and cursing from behind.

"Mom, do you want to be ashamed?"

"Such a slow speed, but also in the fast lane? Rolling, rolling! Can't bear to give up horse food, or can't bear to drive?"

"A bunch of idiots, why did they let me meet a low-speed dog and occupy the fast lane again?"

An extremely explosive sound came from behind.

Li Shimin was at a loss.

Pei Ji, Fang Xuanling and the others were also at a loss.

Who are you scolding?

You're walking well on your own, low-speed dog?

Fast lane?

What the hell?

They don't know how serious it is.

In the next breath, three fast horses rushed over from behind. The leading man pulled the reins, bared his teeth at Li Shimin, stretched out his middle finger, and stabbed him down hard.

Immediately, Li Shimin frowned.

Pei Ji, Fang Xuanling and the others were also at a loss.

Li Junxian directly stretched his hands to his waist and was about to take action.

"Who are you scolding? Are we going our own way and hindering you?"

Fang Xuanling shouted loudly and shouted back. "Hmph! Why don't you hinder us? Look at the carriage behind you, how blocked it is?"

"This road is a fast lane! Are you... from Datang? It's your first time on a high-speed cement road, right?"

"Come here, Dayan, why don't you learn the traffic rules of Dayan? On the cement expressway, the fast lane is not allowed to be occupied for a long time. It is only used for overtaking. If you buy a car and don't get out of the way, you guys The carriage is so fast, why don’t you get out of the way quickly?”

"As fast as you are, go and stay nearby!"

When the man saw Li Shimin, Pei Ji and the others, who must have just come from the Tang Dynasty, the anger in his heart subsided a little, and then he explained loudly.

then,

Taking a look at the reins, there was no need to talk nonsense, it turned into a sharp arrow. He rushed straight up.

It was so fast that it disappeared in an instant.

no way,

On this ground, the speed of horses can really be displayed perfectly, and they can even perform beyond their level.

Li Shimin stretched out his head and looked back.

as predicted,

It's okay if you don't look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.

hiss….

He saw that behind his carriage, the wide highway was filled with carriages.

They were all looking up frantically, not knowing what was happening in front of them.

"Everyone, come here quickly."

"That's the fast lane over there. You guys can't get on the fast lane at this speed."

People in a carriage nearby also shouted with a smile.

Li Shimin was a little embarrassed.

Pei Ji, Fang Xuanling, Cheng Yaojin and others also rubbed their noses.

Co-author... I really delayed it myself.

Li Junxian was also a little confused, looking at Li Shimin at a loss.

Just now,

They got on the cement road and saw that there was no one in this lane and it was unobstructed, while the lane next to it was filled with various carriages, so they kept driving in this lane.

"Go over there."

Li Shimin gave a low drink.

Although he still didn't understand what the fast lane meant, he immediately ordered to change lanes.

Shame on you!

Unexpectedly, the mighty Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was given a lesson first when he arrived in Dayan.

Still in such public view!

When Li Shimin's carriage moved into the lane next to him, instantly...

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

One after another, under the control of the driver, the horses went completely crazy. I don't know how much faster they were down there.

And carriages rushed past from time to time, and the horses pulling the carriages were all galloping.

This kind of situation has almost never been seen in Datang.

Without him,

In the Tang Dynasty, as far as the official road was concerned, the carriage could reach such speed that either the people would be shaken and the carriage would be scattered.

but,

On the cement highway, there was no impact at all, and the speed of the carriage was perfectly displayed.

"Your Majesty, are you okay?"

At this time, Queen Changsun and others behind them all ran over and asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just that I don't understand the rules here."

Li Shimin waved his hand and said awkwardly.

He wasn't angry either, there was nothing to be angry about.

Hearing this, Queen Changsun and the others heaved a sigh of relief.

Then, they all boarded the carriage.

Although the space was instantly crowded, we could still sit down.

"These guys only care about speed...and Emperor Dayan also thinks too simply."

"At this speed, if this horse runs once, it will be completely destroyed! The horse's hoof cannot withstand such intense wear and tear."

"Besides, this road, Your Majesty, looks so hard, there is no rebound at all."

"Emperor Dayan is still young after all."

Cheng Yaojin looked at the pedestrians passing his carriage on the expressway next to him and said in a deep voice.

When Li Shimin and the others heard this, they couldn't help but subconsciously cast their eyes on the horse's hooves.

These words woke them up!

Biting gold makes sense!

I have to say, indeed! !

This Emperor Dayan is too young after all.

Although this design is indeed good, and the idea of ​​this cement highway is indeed good, it is somewhat divorced from the facts.

Li Shimin got off the carriage directly, and then touched the ground with his hand.

硬！

Still hard! !

Li Shimin could definitely predict that the people on the expressway would drive so violently on such a road. After this journey, I probably won’t be able to get the horse’s hooves anymore.

Wear!

This is an extremely serious matter for every horse, but it is something that cannot be prevented at all.

so,

In the era of the Tang Dynasty, no matter whether it was a war horse in the army or an ordinary horse, there was no need to pay extra attention to the horse's hooves.

no way!

Horse hooves are so fragile!

of course,

The main reason is that the Tang Dynasty's dependence on horses is too serious, so the horses' hoofs appear to be fragile.

If it is pulling goods, once it gets heavy, the horseshoe will split directly. ,

If you run long distances, the horse's hooves will be severely worn over time, and you must train them for a long time to make the horse's hooves grow longer before they can continue to be used.

But this is still for ordinary officialdom.

Such official roads are made of land, are flexible, and are much softer than cement roads.

estimate….

On such a cement highway, this horse may be completely destroyed after just one trip.

This is unacceptable in today's era.

"It seems that this road will be abandoned soon."

Li Shimin laughed. This was the first time he discovered that Emperor Dayan was inferior to him.

After thinking about it, Li Shimin said again: "No matter how quickly a horse is trained, it will take three or four years, but... if such a road damages the horse, it will probably not take more than two months."

"The damage is too great! This Emperor Yan seems to have been living in a pavilion and has no understanding of the truth."

Li Shimin said with a smile.

"Yes, Your Majesty, what Yao Jin said is very critical and serious. It seems... this road is only suitable for walking."

Pei Ji also echoed.

Fang Xuanling and Li Junxian both frowned.

The two looked at each other.

at this point,

To put it bluntly, they all thought of it. Could it be that the mysterious Great Yan Emperor didn’t think of it?

impossible?

Besides, this issue is not secretive.

Even if the Emperor of Dayan was negligent for a moment, what would the officials of Dayan think of it?

The two of them didn't speak, just stared at the expressway.

They stared at the galloping horses one after another. Suddenly, Fang Xuanling was startled.

"Shopkeeper, that's not right!"

"Look, these horse hooves! Look, look, there seems to be something underneath these horse hooves!"

Fang Xuanling shouted directly.

He looked carefully just now. When the hooves of the horse on the expressway were tumbling, there was something on the hooves. There was definitely something! !

There's something wrong with this horse's hoof! !

When everyone heard Fang Xuanling's voice, they immediately looked at the hooves of a galloping horse in confusion.
