Aurora Country.
Zhu Xu sat on a dragon chair made of smelting foreign weapons, listening to the report of the group of ministers below.
“Your Majesty, the country’s steel output has exceeded 10 million tons, and the construction of our main domestic railways has been laid.”
Shangshu Liu Yunbing of the Ministry of Works excitedly reported the situation to Zhu Xu.
He clearly remembered that when he heard the emperor’s order to build the railway, he was in disbelief.
After all, railway construction is also the first time they have heard about it.
As an authentic ancient, the construction of roads was also made of green bricks and tiles, and as for the construction of railways, it was completely beyond their understanding.
Railway?
Is it to lay a layer of iron on this road?
Isn’t that tyranny?!
Besides, over time, if iron encounters water, it is easy to rust.
If this really builds a “railway”, then rust, how to maintain it?
At that time, Liu Yunbing went to Zhu Xu extremely depressed, explained his worries to Zhu Xu, and made Zhu Xu laugh on the spot.
Liu Yunbing didn’t know why, and looked at Zhu Xu suspiciously
“Your Majesty, did the minister say something wrong?”
“Hahaha, Liu Aiqing, the railway you said is not the kind of road made of iron that you said.
The railway is just a mode of transportation.”
Under Zhu Xu’s explanation, Liu Yunbing understood all the beginnings and ends.
It turned out that he accidentally made an oolong, scratched his head embarrassedly, and Liu Yunbing went down to arrange.
For the railway that Zhu Xu said, he is now completely interested.
It is an extremely great project, and if this railway is completed, it will definitely shock the world.
When he arranged everything, he even personally supervised the project.
However, it still encountered some obstacles, such as a slow process.
In his eyes, it is normal that there are not enough people and the process is slow.
However, Zhu Xu did not think so, railway construction is a very important project, related to the progress and development of the national economy and society.
So he directly waved his hand and let all the prisoners of war join the construction of the railway in public.
More than 200,000 prisoners of war were all invested in railway construction.
In order to prevent riots, Zhu Xu also specially sent some people to guard, and if they disobeyed this, they would be directly killed.
It was such an iron-blooded policy that greatly accelerated the construction of the railway.
Originally expected to take three years, or even longer, the construction of the railway is now completed in just one year.
Thinking of Zhu Xu’s thunderous deeds, Liu Yunbing admired it from the bottom of his heart.
Now that the railway construction has been completed, even the steel output has reached a very high value, which was completely unimaginable before.
“It’s just those prisoners of war, and now there are only more than 10,000 left…”
“It doesn’t matter, they can also be regarded as having a place to use, dedicating their lives to the railway cause of the Aurora Country, and they can be regarded as dying!”
Zhu Xu did not feel sorry for these prisoners of war at all, more than 200,000 people, only more than 10,000 people remained, it seems that he still needs to fight more in other countries, otherwise the prisoners of war are somewhat insufficient.
As an emperor, when necessary, he will definitely be ruthless.
For example, during the Qin Emperor, it took so much manpower and material resources to build a Great Wall.
Although the construction of the Great Wall has caused people to complain, it must be said that the significance of the Great Wall is extraordinary.
It has not only played a major role in the military, but also played a great role in objective economic and cultural exchanges.
And he also built railways, which also has the same meaning.
It’s just that more than 200,000 prisoners died, and those rude aliens who sacrificed their lives for the railway project were worth it.
“As for the remaining prisoners of war, they will be issued the lowest green cards directly and become the lowest citizens.”
Let them continue to enjoy the power to breathe the air of the Aurora Kingdom, continue to contribute to our Aurora Country, and not waste their coming to this world!! ”
“Wei Chen obeys the order!!”
Zhu Xu’s words quickly decided the treatment of all prisoners of war.
The following civil and military officials did not feel that there was anything wrong with Zhu Xu’s approach.
On the contrary, they also supported Zhu’s approach.
After all, since Zhu Xu became emperor, the country’s economic capacity level has been continuously improving.
As people from the Central Plains, they knew at most horse-drawn carriages before, and they had never seen steam cars.
The best road I saw was the green brick road, and I never knew what else roads were said.
Not to mention, since they saw steam cars and highways, they felt that the good things they thought were not worth mentioning before.
And all these projects do require a lot of manpower, and the prisoners of war will play a great role at this time.
“Is there anything else to start?”
“Your Majesty, the Kunpeng-class battleship has been successfully launched, and the millions of soldiers have also been rearmed, basically all of them are equipped with the latest version of the back hall musket, repeating musket, mortar, etc., ready to fight at any time, grab a few princesses for Your Majesty to come back as slave girls!”
Li Yunde, Shangshu of the military department, appeared and reported the latest situation.
When the last sentence landed, the entire civil and military officials burst into laughter:
“Haha, we must take a few beautiful ones, let’s not take them if they are not beautiful.”
“To be a female slave to Your Majesty is to lift them up, how can they face Your Majesty with such an identity?!”
“The military department is so powerful, plus General Chang, it will definitely be able to return home in triumph!”
“General Chang will definitely win when he fights!”
Chang Yuchun was already ready to move after hearing the words of Shangshu Li Yunde of the military department, and now when he heard others say this, he immediately clasped his hands into fists:
“Your Majesty, Weichen requests to fight!”
Zhu Xu looked at Chang Yuchun, who looked excited, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
It is not that he is bent on expanding his territory, but that his generals are belligerent.
Well, yes, that’s it.
Chang Yuchun: Your Majesty, I don’t carry such a pot.
Just after thinking about it shallowly, Zhu Xu’s mind began to come alive.
Over the years, through his efforts and the external plug-in of the system, the Aurora Kingdom has gradually become an industrialized country, and compared with those feudal dynasties, it has improved by more than a little.
Since the location is favorable today, people and people, it is definitely necessary to do a great job.
