Chapter 62 The ancients were not fools!
They are all veterans of the Qin Dynasty, and the one who has followed Qin Shihuang for the shortest period of time has been twenty years.
We once traveled across the battlefield and conquered six countries together, and our friendship was very deep.
In addition, after Qin Shihuang proclaimed the throne, he did not monopolize the government and relinquish power, which made everyone even more convinced.
However, due to years of fighting, his body had developed many hidden diseases. His health was getting worse day by day, and he could only withdraw from the court sadly.
Now with the improvement of physical fitness and the increase of life span, the body has completely recovered and has the opportunity to follow Qin Shihuang. How can we not be excited?
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Ying Zheng turned around and raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a faint smile.
Wang Jian and others were excited because they could continue to follow him, so why wouldn't he be excited because these people could continue to be by his side?
He is the lofty Qin Shihuang, the only emperor of all time, but he is also a human being, with seven emotions and six desires, and it is impossible to throw all emotions away.
Seeing that there are fewer and fewer people around me, I feel very lonely.
"Tell me how to use these four million-meter highways to bring out their value."
Ying Zheng waved his hand gently, ordered someone to bring a few chairs, and sat directly on the city wall.
Meng Yi and others took their seats one by one.
A full half an hour passed, and no one spoke.
In the eyes of future generations, if Da Qin can own these four highways, its strength will at least increase a lot, if not double it, but in fact...
"Your Majesty, these roads are of almost no use to our Great Qin."
Zhang Han's faint voice sounded.
It's just four million-meter-long highways, and they are nothing like what I, Da Qin, are talking about!
If someone stands above and looks down from the sky, he will find that Daqin is not the rugged mountain road that everyone remembers, but it is like modern times, extending in all directions, and it is very scary.
The only difference is that it's not a highway, but railroad tracks.
You can vaguely see at least dozens of steam trains running.
The national power of Great Qin has already developed to a terrifying level, far beyond the imagination of the world.
"You can't say that. At least it saves a lot of material resources, manpower, and time." Meng Yi scratched his head and looked at Zhang Han next to him: "I checked the information and found that these four roads lead to Longxi County, Jiujiang County and Longxi County respectively. Yuan County, Minzhong County and Qianzhong County can directly connect to the border. If cars are invented, the speed will be much faster than steam trains."
The four highways rewarded by the system are of much better quality and wider than those built by Daqin itself. If they can be put into use, they will not be wasted.
"With Shaofu's current technological level, the shell of a car can be made, but some of the precision parts are a bit difficult with current methods. I am leading people to try to make breakthroughs. Give me a little more time."
"As for the steam car, it is simple. The first one can be produced in half a month at most and then put into use. But the speed is not much faster than a war horse, so there is no need to build one."
Zhang Han shook his head slightly, then took a deep breath and said firmly.
I secretly made up my mind to invent the car no matter what.
Originally, he didn't have the confidence to say such a thing. Manufacturing a car was really too complicated, but he got a lot of drawings from Hua Yu in the past few days, which increased his confidence.
The most difficult thing is to build the engine. This problem stumps almost all the scientists in the Shaofu.
"What's going on with the Xiongnu? Is everything still as planned?" Ying Zheng nodded slightly, indicating that there was no need to worry, then changed the topic and turned around to ask.
Meng Yi quickly said, "Meng Tian sent back the news yesterday that everything is going according to plan, and the Huns have been driven to the far north."
Just as Wang Lao and others expected, all this was Qin Shihuang's plan to kill someone with a borrowed knife!
"Where's Lao Jiu? Isn't there any news yet?"
Ying Zheng frowned slightly, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
Ying Tian can lead people to destroy the Gallic Empire, which proves from the side that his strength is not weak, but since we haven't seen him for so many years, it is definitely a lie to say that he is not worried.
<divclass="contentadv"> "Your Majesty, I got some information about the Ninth Young Master from Hua Yu, but it is unknown whether it is true or not." Zhang Han stood up.
Seeing him speak, the other people all turned their gazes over.
Ying Tian's own excellence and Qin Shihuang's regard for him made him very popular in the court.
"Hua Yu said that the Ninth Young Master is in big trouble. Many Western forces are gathering together to kill the Ninth Young Master. I think he may have done this on purpose and wanted to trick us into sending troops." Zhang Han said respectfully.
This is not a conspiracy, but a naked conspiracy.
Hua Yu was gambling, Zhang Han and others would send troops to attack for Ying Tian's safety.
Once the Qin Dynasty was empty and the Maurya Dynasty attacked, he would have the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos and escape.
"The problem is, even if Ninth Young Master is really in danger, there is no way to rescue him because the distance is too far."
Meng Yi said with a wry smile.
In recent years, all available methods have been used to find Ying Tian, which can be said to have involved the entire country.
"Your Majesty, given the evil nature of Ninth Young Master, you should not worry about him, but should worry about those Westerners."
General Wang reached out and touched his nose, and said with some fear.
A long time has passed, but the scenes of the war against the Six Kingdoms are still echoing in my mind, and I still can't forget the remnants of the Six Kingdoms who were cried by Ying Tiankeng.
And, let’s look at it from another perspective.
Why was Ying Tian able to attract siege from the West? It’s nothing more than too strong!
"Don't worry, I know it well." Ying Zheng shook his head and laughed.
He couldn't help but think of those bad methods that Ying Tian had come up with.
Even he can't help but have black lines on his forehead when he thinks about it now.
"Meng Yi, please send an order to Wang Ben to be more vigilant. These are troubled times and you must not be careless."
After Ying Zheng took a deep breath, his eyes became serious.
In fact, many of the worries of future generations are unnecessary.
Hua Yu did not tell Zheng Ge that the Mauryan Dynasty would launch a massive attack, but as ancient people, they had experienced countless wars. If they did not even have this awareness, their lives would be in vain.
Many people think that modern people can explode the sky in ancient times. In fact, it is completely nonsense.
There is nothing wrong with technology overpowering ancient times, but other things may be true.
The ancients were just a little behind in industrial technology, but they were not fools.
"Your Majesty, after Wang Ben destroyed the Yue Kingdom, he led an army of 500,000 to guard the border to ensure that not even a fly could get in, let alone an enemy country's attack."
Meng Yi bowed slightly and spoke respectfully.
Zhang Han was responsible for managing the Shaofu, Feng Jie was responsible for managing the treasury, and the Wang family was responsible for the war. He was the only one who had nothing to do, so the trivial matters in the court fell on him.
"Zhang Han, please pass on my order to increase the number of inns at least ten times next to the highway. There is no limit to the number. Be prepared for war. I have a hunch that the war is about to break out."
After Ying Zheng pondered for a moment, a deep voice sounded.
