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

"slow!"

However, Fang Xuanling suddenly spoke up and stopped him.

"Your Majesty, this matter... this matter is best considered in the long run."

"We have all learned about the telegraph technology of Dayan before. In particular, countless people went to Yanyun City a while ago and also knew the convenience of telegraphs. If Your Majesty refuses, will the people be resentful of Your Majesty? Will they also say that Your Majesty is narrow-minded?"

"Now, there are more and more people from the Tang Dynasty in Dayan."

"The demand for this among the people of Chang'an is also very great."

"In fact, Your Majesty, I think it's better to let them build it. After all, even if they don't build it, the people of Chang'an will not stop sending messages even if they go to Pu County. In addition, it is mainly to strengthen the connection between the people of Chang'an and their relatives in Dayan. This will also greatly remind the relatives living in Dayan that their roots are in the Tang Dynasty. If you think about it carefully, it will be good for our Tang Dynasty."

Fang Xuanling said softly.

"Yes, Your Majesty, what Xuanling said makes sense." Wei Zheng also echoed.

"Your Majesty, that's right. Even if Chang'an doesn't set up a communication station, the people will still run to Pu County. Moreover, if word gets out that Your Majesty doesn't agree to set it up, many people will definitely be resentful."

"When that happens, it won't be good for our court."

Li Jing also spoke in the same way.

Li Shimin looked at them.

There is scrutiny in his eyes.

to be frank,
He suddenly became a little confused. Are Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Li Jing and others really thinking about themselves and the Tang Dynasty, or are they just thinking about setting up a communication station so that it will be easier for them to communicate with their children in Yanyun City in the future?
Li Shimin didn't know and couldn't figure it out.

In fact, he knew in his heart that if this question was thrown to Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others, they probably wouldn't know whether they were considering the Tang Dynasty or themselves.
In other words, one part is the Tang Dynasty and the other part is yourself?
If you say it’s just the Tang Dynasty, you’re kidding.

People are selfish after all.

However, we have to admit that what they said makes sense.

If I don't set it up, the people of Chang'an will probably have more complaints. But if I set it up, won't it be easier for Dayan to grasp the situation in Chang'an and the Tang Dynasty in the future?
Li Shimin shook his head.

Hey!
This is technology!
This is the power of technology!

With its technological means far superior to those of the Tang Dynasty, Dayan is gradually eroding and influencing everything in the Tang Dynasty.

The key point is that in this regard, the Tang Dynasty has no power to fight back!

"I'm sure."

After a long time, Li Shimin closed his eyes and slowly uttered three words.

There is no way around it.

Li Shimin knew that he had no right to refuse this matter.

Refusing to use Dayan technology, refusing to get close to Dayan technology, and refusing to experience Dayan technology will only have one outcome in the end, which is to widen the distance between Datang and Dayan.

and,

Not to mention, even if he rejected the request for the communication station now, I believe it won’t be long before a second Dayan will appear and want to access Datang’s technology. At that time, can he still refuse?
It can happen once or twice, but not three or four times.

Dayan’s technology is more than just a communication station.

Li Junxian looked at Li Shimin, nodded heavily, and then hurriedly told the staff of Dayan Development Group about this matter.

The hot pot in the hall was still boiling.

However, no one around the hot pot, including Li Shimin, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, etc., moved.

"I am a little tired."

"Eat, and when you're full, go back and rest."

Li Shimin put his hands on the armrests of the chair, slowly stood up, and walked towards Fengyi Palace.
Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Li Jing and others looked at Li Shimin's back and hurriedly stood up to see him off.

Li Shimin left.

But none of them sat down.

Staring blankly at the burning coal under the hot pot.

"Let's..." Fang Xuanling pursed his cracked lips and took a deep breath. However, he didn't know what to say anymore. Finally, he just said, "Everyone, I'm a little tired too. I want to go back and rest."

"Let's go, let's go together, Xuanling, I want to go back too." Wei Zheng also spoke.

"Let's go together, let's go together. Hey... there's no other way, there really is no other way. The foundation of Great Yan is now extremely deep. How can we, the Tang Dynasty, resist it? This kind of invasion, in fact, if you think about it carefully, may be more effective than the direct attack of the Great Yan army."

Li Jing shook his head, and he sighed: "To be honest, once you know the technology of Dayan and use it, you can't live without it at all."

"Who says it's not?"

Cheng Yaojin scratched his head, turned around and walked outside. The snow outside the hall was still very thick, and it made a crunching sound when he stepped on it. "Besides, we in the Tang Dynasty really have no way to refuse. The people need it, and the people welcome it."

"Dayan seems to be changing Datang bit by bit. It won't be long before people in Datang don't know whether they are from Datang or Dayan."

Wei Zheng said in a deep voice.

Everyone was silent.

Of course, they are very clear about this trend.

But, is there any solution?
Conspiracy?

Can it be considered an open conspiracy?
They knew that Da Yan might be changing the Tang Dynasty, but they were simply unable to resist.

No resistance!

For example, if they don't allow Dayan's technology to come in, they can catch up and directly solve the people's needs. This is the best strategy. However, the key is that they can't do it, they really can't do it.

The telegraph is an amazing thing.

They really couldn't understand how Dayan could have researched this thing.

If a communication station is set up in Chang'an, then communication between Yanyun City and Chang'an can be achieved in just half an hour. It is so convenient, who can refuse it?
If I write letters, it will take at least ten days or half a month to go back and forth. How can I do it?

With such a huge gap, how could the Tang Dynasty refuse?

The Ganlu Temple is empty.

Everyone went back.

They really couldn't eat this hot pot.

Fengyi Hall.

When Li Shimin arrived, Empress Changsun and the palace maid were making a snowman in the snow with little Sizi.

"His Majesty?"

"How did you come?"

"Didn't Your Majesty say that he wanted to have hotpot with Lord Fang, Lord Wei and the others?"

When Empress Changsun saw Li Shimin coming towards her, she was a little surprised. She dropped the snowball in her hand and asked curiously.

It's just noon, isn't it ending a little too quickly?

Li Shimin shook his head.

He looked at the little Sizi who was having fun, and slowly sat down on the steps.

He sighed and briefly explained that Dayan was going to set up a communication station in Chang'an.

Upon hearing this, Empress Changsun and the palace maids raised their eyebrows slightly.

"Really? Dayan actually wants to set up a communication station in Chang'an. This is a good thing."

"Wouldn't it be possible to get a reply quickly if I wrote a letter to Changle and the others in the future?"

"Not bad."

"Moreover, more and more young people from the Tang Dynasty are going to the capital of Xia to study. This way, our relatives in Chang'an can keep in touch with them from time to time. Your Majesty, this is a good thing. Why do you look so worried?"

Empress Changsun was somewhat delighted.

Chang'an has a communication station, which is really very convenient. Li Shimin sighed.

He looked at the two of them and said, "This is a communication station now. So, is there anything else behind this? By then, the lifeblood of our Tang Dynasty will probably be completely controlled by Dayan."

"But I simply cannot replace it with something from our Tang Dynasty."

"For everything, we can only rely on Dayan."

"Great Yan!"

"With the technology of Dayan, it's really hard for me to eat."

Li Shimin was helpless.

He was restless and anxious, but he had no other options, which made him even more desperate.

Empress Changsun was stunned when she heard this. After thinking about it, she realized that this was indeed the case.

but,
This matter cannot be avoided after all.

There was silence in front of Fengyi Palace for a while.

"Hey!"

"Have no idea."

"Dayan, Yanyun City, I don't know, what does it feel like to live in Pavilion No. 1 now? Isn't it said that everything is like spring?"

“I really want to go and see it.”

Empress Changsun sighed.

Li Shimin's eyes moved slightly.

Winter is like spring?

He pursed his lips, tightened his clothes, turned his head, and looked at Fengyi Palace again.

The palace in winter is icy cold, more uncomfortable than an ordinary house.

There is no other reason, because the palaces in the imperial palace are all tall and big, which makes them cool in the summer, but freezing in the winter.

The coldness is unstoppable.

Even if you light the stove, it can't be stopped.

Think about the descriptions of Hall No. 1. Can you wear summer clothes, sit in front of the window, and eat ice cream?

hiss….
What does that taste like?
Is it so cool?
It was snowing heavily outside the window and the ground was freezing cold, but it was warm as spring inside the window.

Gudong!

Li Shimin swallowed his saliva. He was really curious and yearning in his heart.

That enjoyment is absolutely amazing!

It’s really amazing!
Li Shimin subconsciously looked towards the north.

However, after a moment, Li Shimin's spirit was suddenly shocked. He bit his tongue hard and woke up from his fantasy.

damn it!
After all, I am the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. How could I so easily indulge in the corruption and enjoyment of the Great Yan?

Li Shimin secretly cursed himself and fell into self-blame and shame.

Chang'an is quite lively.

The city was originally blocked by heavy snow, and Chang'an has become quiet recently. Everything is silent.

But because of what happened at the communication station, Chang'an has become different.

"What? We in Chang'an are going to design a telegraph communication station? Damn, this is a good thing, this is a great thing, damn, if that's the case, won't I be able to chat with my brother every day in the future?"

"Communication station? We need to set up a communication station in Chang'an? Connect it to Xiadu? Hiss..."

"Good, good, hahahaha, damn, I don't know how long I have to wait to write a letter in this winter. Now that there is a communication station, it will be so convenient to contact my son."

"Who said it wasn't? I didn't expect that His Majesty would be so wise. Now I can finally enjoy the convenience of Dayan, and I don't have to envy the people of Dayan all the time. This is wonderful, this is wonderful. I will definitely try it out when it is built, hahahaha."

"Since His Majesty has agreed to build a communication station, when will the time be changed? Damn, I find the twelve-hour clock increasingly difficult to use. Also, when will we get some clocks in Chang'an? I spend my days in a state of confusion. It would be better in the summer, but it's too hard to stay at home every day in the winter without any time!"

"Who said it wasn't? Hey, I was thinking, when can we get a railway in Chang'an and connect it to Yanyun City? Then, it will be much more convenient for me to do business here."

"Connect the railway to Chang'an? I'm afraid His Majesty won't agree to this. We won't even know when a carload of Dayan soldiers will enter Chang'an. To be honest, compared to bringing in the railway, I'd rather open a cinema in Chang'an. Damn, just thinking about Dayan movies makes me excited."

"Movie theater? Forget it. What are you thinking about? Forget about anything else. We don't even have a power plant in Chang'an. How can we run a movie theater with that?"

"Hahaha, having a communication station is a good start. Later, I believe that a series of convenient technologies from Dayan will also be introduced. Then, we can enjoy them too."

"..."

Many people were discussing this from house to house, with great excitement and enthusiasm.
In their hearts, they were extremely happy about this news.

Communication stations are really of great help to people's lives.

In this cold winter, such news can bring some warmth to Chang'an.

……

Great inflammation.

Yanyun City.

Since the first flight, the aircraft manufacturer has begun intensive production.

The production speed is, of course, much faster than the first production. At the same time, a series of research on tanks and radars are also in full swing.

Right now,

Li Kuan stood in the main hall, looking at the snowflakes falling in front of him. He was in a pretty good mood.

Another year is about to pass.

It's already mid-December.

Another Spring Festival is coming, and it’s almost on time.

Year after year, Dayan is also changing year after year.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, it's snowing. We came to have a drink with you. Are you free?"

"Your Majesty, it's snowing so heavily! The snowflakes are almost as big as my fists!"

"Your Majesty, it's really cold today. People outside are eating hotpot. The hotpot restaurants and iron pot stew restaurants are all packed. Hahaha, we are so greedy that we came to see Your Majesty."

"..."

At this time, Guo Shoujing, Xin Qiji, Chen Qingzhi, Heshen and others walked in excitedly.

Li Kuan narrowed his eyes and smiled softly: "You guys know how to find opportunities."

"Okay, come on."

Of course Li Kuan would not refuse.

He has nothing to do now.

When the world is at peace, we should always relax.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Xin Qiji, Chen Qingzhi and Zhang Liao coughed twice.

"Alas, your majesty, it's a little hot in this room."

"No, no, I can't stand it anymore, it's too hot." (End of this chapter)
