The short video shows the ancient times, and the emperors cried with envy!

Chapter 266 World Epic Sichuan-Tibet Railway! Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was surprised again: What did you use to build roads? iron? ? !
Li Shimin was so shocked, and the countless courtiers behind him were even more stunned at the moment.

I looked at the pictures on the sky screen and said nothing for a long time.

They are also people who have seen the world, but have they never seen such a magnificent project?
Diverting water from the south to the north is such a shocking national policy!

Although they could not truly understand the profound impact of the South-to-North Water Diversion on later generations, wasn't the Grand Canal built by the Sui Dynasty an obvious fact?
The difficulty of that canal was vastly different from that of later generations, and the effects were naturally also vastly different.

Even if they haven't seen it with their own eyes, everyone knows exactly what it means?
The South-to-North Water Diversion Project diverts not only water, but also the people's hearts, which are as thick as water and as deep as abyss...

Many ministers have already settled a score in their minds.

"If the Tang Dynasty can complete similar national plans, there may be no need to worry about internal worries for thousands of years!"

"In addition to transporting water, the canal can also transport troops and food."

"If we can rely on this national policy to connect the territories from the south to the north, plus the navy that Datang is currently preparing to build."

“Great things can be expected!”

"We can look forward to the prosperous Tang Dynasty through the ages!"

"..."

A blueprint for the prosperous Tang Dynasty was suddenly spread out in front of countless people. At this moment, even Taizong Li Shimin was deeply moved!
Ming dynasty.

Yongle Emperor Zhu Di also suddenly stood up.

Ever since he came up with the idea of ​​moving the capital to Beijing, the issue of water has been a top priority.

Although water in the palace can be guaranteed during drought years, the lives of other people in Beijing and surrounding areas are not so easy!

Moreover, the south has been prone to floods since ancient times.

If we could take this opportunity to divert water from the south to the north, wouldn't it solve two major disasters for the people at once?
But problems also arise. Just thinking about the possible expenses, Zhu Di's heart suddenly fell to the bottom.

The Ming Dynasty's treasury is almost empty. How can it get the money to build the South-to-North Water Diversion Project?
Not to mention the South-to-North Water Diversion, even if you want to imitate later generations to build dams on the Yangtze River and Yellow River, you will also hollow out the current Ming Dynasty!

Zhu Di had never realized the importance of the treasury in this way, and he felt infinite emotion in his heart.

If I had known that I would have paid more attention during the previous Northern Expeditions and spent less on military expenditures, maybe I could have built a small dam on the Yangtze River or Yellow River now!
As for the size of the Three Gorges Dam...

Zhu Di didn't even dare to think about it!

Qing.

Emperor Kangxi cried when he looked at the Three Gorges Dam and the South-to-North Water Diversion Project on the sky.

Last year the Yellow River burst, causing countless victims!
If a flood discharge dam could be trimmed in advance, why spend so much money on disaster relief?
But he also knew the national conditions of the Qing Dynasty. The money in the treasury had long been emptied.

At this moment, Emperor Kangxi could only look at the sky and sigh.

……

[Third, Sichuan-Tibet Railway! 】

[The Sichuan-Tibet Railway is a national railway Class I double-track railway in China connecting Chengdu City, Sichuan Province, to Lhasa City, Tibet Autonomous Region. It runs east-west. It is the second railway into Tibet in China and one of the trunk railways in southwest China. one. 】

[The Sichuan-Tibet Railway has an operating length of 1838 kilometers, with a design speed of 160 to 200 kilometers per hour. The Chengdu to Ya'an section is 140 kilometers long, the Lhasa to Nyingchi section is 435 kilometers long, and the Ya'an to Nyingchi section of the new main line is 1011 kilometers in length. kilometer! 】

[The construction of the Sichuan-Tibet Railway is a major measure to implement the Party’s strategy for governing Tibet in the new era. It is important for safeguarding China’s national unity, promoting ethnic unity, consolidating border stability, and promoting the economic and social development of the western region, especially the two provinces of Sichuan and Tibet. It is of great significance. 】【At the same time, as the second "sky road" on the snowy plateau and a project with the most complex topography and geological conditions in the history of world railway construction, the Sichuan-Tibet Railway has shouldered the dream of three generations of Chinese railway builders; the railway construction itself can also play a role in It plays an important role in strengthening ecological protection and preventing soil erosion. 】

"Thanks to those martyrs who risked their lives and worked hard in that hellish environment, these roads to heaven were built!" 》

"This is the most dangerous and difficult "epic" railway in the world! 》

"If the Sichuan-Tibet Railway crosses the Hengduan Mountains, it needs to face threats including fault zones and earthquake zones. It needs to build tunnels through mountains and build bridges across canyons and rivers. It also needs to face rock bursts and water surges without changing its expression!" 》

"This is a real miracle project, and only we flower growers can do it!" 》

"The terrain in the Sichuan-Tibet region is complex and undulating. Most areas are above 3000 meters above sea level, and in many places even exceed 5000 meters. This poses severe challenges to railway construction. 》

"The climate in the alpine areas is changeable!" Natural disasters such as glaciers, avalanches, and mudslides occur frequently. In addition, Sichuan-Tibet region suffers from frequent earthquakes and unstable geological structures. Just thinking about it makes you feel dizzy! 》

"In the high mountain area, the weather conditions are severe and the construction season is short. The difficulty is really hellish!" 》

At this moment, the audience under the canopy was even more deadly silent.

The Three Gorges Dam is already a miracle, but the South-to-North Water Diversion Project is almost a fantasy and a fairy tale!

I thought this was the limit, but the people of Wan Dynasty never thought that there was a unique skill?
They don't know much about what a railway is, but the difficulties are obvious to all. In this environment, let alone road construction, even if they can barely make a living, it's already the limit!

But the group of people in later generations directly opened up a road to the sky in the high mountains...

Especially after seeing those shocking photos, everyone was stunned.

No wonder it's called Tianlu.

It turns out that it is almost level with the scale? In other words, only geniuses can build it?

In the eyes of others, they have fallen into deep suspicion at this moment.

Big man.

Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, opened his jaw wide as he looked at the sky.

What kind of road did you say you built?

Iron...railway?
What are the conditions? Even the roads are on rails.

Besides, where are you going to cultivate? Tibet? Isn’t that the Western Region?

With just a few words, Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, lost his usual calmness and reserve. At this moment, he was like a common man who had never seen the world, and the shock in his eyes was not concealed at all.

And, is this speed serious?

Liu Che is really Mengquan's grandma opening the door for Mengquan at this moment. Mengquan is home!
"The total length of the line is 1838 kilometers?"

"600 miles per hour?"

Wei Qing on the side couldn't help but cry out in surprise, the astonishment in his eyes was not much different from Liu Che's.

After all, road building has been done in every dynasty and every generation since ancient times, but has anyone seen anyone using iron to build roads?
Although this future generation has money, they can't squander it like this!
Moreover, how much iron would be used to build such a long road? If it were used in the army of the Han Dynasty, wouldn't a million-strong army be able to build it with just a wave of hands?

As for speed, Wei Qing didn't pay that much attention.
