I, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, have risen since I destroyed the Turks

Chapter 657 Datang Telegraph

"Your Majesty, isn't it a bit too much to rely solely on the words of the navy officers and soldiers?"

"After all, John Country is an unfamiliar place to our Tang Dynasty."

Upon hearing this, Li Zheng understood Zheng Xuan's worries. After all, the navy of John Country fell into Li Kan's trap because they attacked rashly without knowing the area.

"Mr. Zheng, I don't just intend to use the navy."

"Send an order to Li Ke, who is guarding the Shi Khanate, to lead 200,000 Tang soldiers and allocate 300,000 local troops of the Shi Khanate to march westward and attack the Western Continent." After Li Zheng finished speaking, he continued without paying attention to Zheng Xuan's reaction.

"At the same time, order Li Daozong and Hou Junji of Myanmar to launch a counterattack against the Delhi Sultanate, capture the Governor-General's Office of the Delhi Sultanate of John, and take control of the Delhi Sultanate."

After conquering the Shi Khanate, the Tang Dynasty's control over the Shi Khanate, especially its army, was very different from that of Myanmar.

First of all, it is the time. The Tang Dynasty conquered the Shi Khanate several months earlier than Myanmar. By breaking up and reorganizing the army, as well as using both kindness and force, the Tang Dynasty completely controlled the Shi Khanate's army.

"I want three armies to march out simultaneously!"

Zheng Xuan was also impressed by Li Zheng's courage when he heard this.

"Your Majesty's ambition is beyond my reach. My vision is still limited to one country, but Your Majesty has already set his sights on the world."

Hearing Zheng Xuan's compliment, you couldn't help but smile.

"Mr. Zheng, although it is not impossible for the Tang Dynasty to fight on three fronts, this will require Mr. Zheng and all the officials to work hard."

Zheng Xuan nodded quickly.

At this time, a long time had passed since the system released the mission of all heavens and worlds, and Li Zheng's pace of unifying the world had also accelerated.

Li Zheng was not attacking blindly, as the strength of the Tang Dynasty had already surpassed that of this era.

Moreover, in addition to local taxes, the money and grain income from the colonies alone is enough to support Li Zheng's simultaneous wars on three fronts.

After all, in the colony, Li Zheng does not have to be responsible for his people. The current strength of the Tang Dynasty can be described in four words without any exaggeration - rich in the world.

After Li Zheng decided on the strategic intention of sending three armies to attack at the same time, Zheng Xuan immediately took the order and hurriedly retreated.

For Li Zheng, he only needs to determine the next focus and goals of the Tang Dynasty, but to implement it, Zheng Xuan needs to coordinate and take into account all departments in the court.

The order for the army to go to war, the food and fodder needed by the army, and various details all required Zheng Xuan to communicate and negotiate with various departments of the Tang Dynasty.

So life is not easy working under a wise and capable king.

Just at this moment, there came a piece of news that made Li Zheng very happy.

The Minister of Works Kaiji requests a meeting!
"Quick, Xuan."

Kaiji asked for a meeting at this time. Could it be that there is some progress in the development of the telegraph?

Li Zheng was very excited when he thought about this, and hurriedly said to Wang De beside him.

After a while, Kaiji walked in hurriedly.

As soon as they met, Kaiji was very excited and said to Li Zheng: "Your Majesty, please move to the Ministry of Works."

"Kaiqing, is there any progress on the telegraph machine?"

"Your Majesty!"

Although Li Zheng had some guesses in his mind, he was very excited when he heard the news. Unlike his previous excitement, Li Zheng's excitement was directly expressed on his face.

He walked quickly to Kaiji, took Kaiji's hand and walked out of the hall.

"Quick, Kaiqing, let me see the results of the Ministry of Industry."

Kaiji was also shocked. Li Zheng's excitement was a little too obvious.

Kaiji naturally didn't understand what the successful development of the telegraph meant to Li Zheng and Datang. The emergence of the telegraph opened the prelude to the telecommunications era of Datang. For Li Zheng, it was not just a machine for communication, but also a place where he could express his emotions.

After all, Li Zheng had seen the world in his previous life which was like a fairyland to the present Tang Dynasty. Seeing that the present Tang Dynasty was leading the world, Li Zheng's national sentiment reached its peak.

The Tang Dynasty, or the Chinese nation, finally changed its destiny in Li Zheng's hands. The humiliating history of the past will never happen again to this weathered nation.

And Li Zheng did all this.

Back to the point.

With the development of science and technology in the Tang Dynasty, confidentiality has become a top priority.

The Shenwu cannon, the steam locomotive, and today's telegraph, any one of these technologies in the Ministry of Industry, if used to build roads, would cause a storm in this world.

Li Zheng could not accept that the efforts of the Tang Dynasty's rulers and ministers had been in vain, so the Ministry of Industry could not be too strict in its confidentiality work.

"Kai Qing, the Ministry of Industry has made great contributions to our Tang Dynasty again this time."

Li Zheng said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, you are embarrassing me. This telegraph machine, including the previous Shenwu Cannon, all had the blueprints and principles provided by you. I and the Ministry of Works just implemented them step by step."

Kaiji spoke to Li Zheng without daring to take any credit for it.

Li Zheng didn't say anything more after hearing this.

About an incense stick later, Li Zheng and Kaiji appeared in a secret courtyard of the Ministry of Works.

The king and his minister stood in the middle of the courtyard, and Kaiji waved towards the depths of the courtyard.

A dozen young boys filed out, holding square boxes in their hands.

Following Kaiji's signal, the teenagers quickly set up the telegraph machine.

The principle of the telegraph is not complicated. It is easy to operate as long as there is electric current. Information is transmitted by controlling the length and frequency of the electric current.

By matching the fixed codes and information compiled in advance, simple information exchange can be carried out.

Limited by the times and thinking, Kaiji and his powerful Ministry of Works spent a great deal of time and energy before they could make any progress.

This is also the reason why these teenagers exist. Young people’s thinking has not yet been solidified, so it is easier for them to participate in this kind of creative work.

About an incense stick later, the boys successfully set up the telegraph machine.

One of the older boys bravely came up to Li Zheng.

"Your Majesty, the telegraph machine has been set up and can be tested at any time. Please set a sentence."

What the boy meant was to let Li Zhengding convey a message.

The young man spoke tremblingly because he was too nervous, but it was not her fault. Li Zheng was now like a god in the hearts of the people of the Tang Dynasty.

In the folk, you can be disrespectful to gods, but if you are disrespectful to Li Zheng, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the people will definitely rush up and tear your face apart.

The people are actually quite simple-minded. They only care about who provides them with food to eat, land to farm and houses to live in.

Li Zheng noticed the nervousness of the boy in front of him, so he gave him an encouraging smile.

"Well done. If they are invaded, I can go there too."

Li Zheng first praised him, and then said.

The boy was flattered at first when he received Li Zheng's praise, then he nodded firmly and turned to start the experiment.
