Datang: At the beginning, I wanted to rebel against my father-in-law

Chapter 180 Railroad Planning
Changsun Wuji and others hurried to the Yan Palace. They had just been summoned by Li Shimin, as if something important had happened.

Quickly gathered in the lobby, no matter whether they were looking for Sun Wuji or Wei Zheng, they found that Li Shiming and Su Feng's faces were very good-looking.

No need to think about it, there must be good news!

But now that the Turks have just been repulsed, the only thing that can make the emperor behave like this is the battle of Goguryeo.

"Your Majesty, is there good news from General Cheng?" Changsun Wuji was the first to stand up, looking at Li Shimin with a smile and asked.

In fact.

At this time, most people had already guessed the result, and the atmosphere in the lobby was very relaxed.

Li Shimin laughed loudly, and didn't speak, but nodded very seriously. Even though they knew the result a long time ago, everyone couldn't help but gasped.

Good guy.

Cheng Yaojin had only been away for less than two months, good news came so soon, it seems that the Goguryeo army is easy to deal with!
"I don't know what kind of good news it is?" Wei Zheng also stood up quickly, looking at Li Shimin with some excitement and asked.

It is very rare for someone like him to be so excited.

Li Shimin still didn't speak, but turned to look at Su Feng beside him.

"Don't guess, everyone. General Cheng and General Yuchi defeated the Goguryeo army and brought back nearly 20 prisoners!" Su Feng said loudly, looking at everyone with a smile.

As soon as the voice fell, the lobby suddenly fell into general silence. Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and even thought they heard it wrong.

They thought that Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong defeated Goguryeo, but they never thought that they captured nearly 20 troops.

Knowing this result, everyone couldn't help but think of the cannon that Su Feng asked them to take away.

"It must be the prince's cannon that played the biggest role. These guys must have never seen such a terrifying thing. Thinking about it makes me feel hearty!"

"I really made the most correct decision at the beginning. After all, these guys, like the Turks, were scared to death and finally surrendered!"

"This is really great. We now have hundreds of thousands of captives. Your Majesty and the prince want to build the railway, and there will be no more obstacles!"

Everyone started talking in low voices, their expressions full of shock and excitement.

They had already discussed about the prisoners building the railway before, and they knew what these prisoners meant to Su Feng.

Li Shimin also understood this, so he was very happy from the beginning.

after all.

The construction of the railway was for the court, and in a sense, it was also for his own good.

The next thing became much simpler. The Turkic people were beaten back, and now they have defeated Goguryeo. Next, they only need to arrange for these people to repair the railway.

The problem now is that everyone is curious about how to arrange the construction of the railway. You must know that except for Su Feng, few people here know about these aspects.

Li Shimin, who had calmed down, turned to look at Su Feng curiously, "More than 20 captives will be sent back soon, and with the addition of 10,000+ Turkic captives, we will have a labor force of nearly 40!"

"How do you plan to use so many people?"

Not only Li Shimin, but everyone else's eyes were on Su Feng. This was not a small force.

the most important is.

At the beginning, Su Feng described to them that when the railway is repaired, the train will reach the sea, and the longing for the sea is the extravagant hope of the northerners.

Su Feng didn't say much, and someone brought the map directly, and then spread it on the ground, so that everyone could clearly see the marks on the map.

original.

On this map, Su Feng had already marked the track of the railway, drawing a large network with red lines.

"Starting from Chang'an, all the way to the coast of Bohai Sea, and then to Nanhai County, after this circle, it is considered that the entire Tang Dynasty has been opened up!"

"From now on, the north and the south will be directly connected, all places can communicate with each other, commerce will be extremely developed, and the economic development of the entire Tang Dynasty will benefit unprecedentedly!"

Following Su Feng's description, a picture seemed to appear in front of everyone's eyes.

What used to take several months to reach, can be completed in just two or three days. Whether it is performing imperial missions, visiting relatives, or doing business transactions, it will be very simple and convenient.

At that time, you can go wherever you want, and you can go there yourself if you want to buy something.

Let alone... They just stood here imagining, and they all felt that the future would be much better.

of course.

This is just an ordinary convenience. For Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and others, the significance of this is even more profound.

Especially the road from Chang'an to the north!

Once it is completely opened up, the army and food and supplies can be sent here in a steady stream. From then on, there is no need to worry about the Turks or other nomadic peoples coming.

Even if they are in Chang'an, they only need to issue an order, and within a few days, the army can be brought to the northern border.

Nor would he waste several days going back and forth like Cheng Yaojin did this time.

"This is really great. After the railway is repaired like this, we can not only go to the south to see the sea, but also use our respective strengths to do business!"

"That's not counting. The point is that the army can be mobilized quickly, and food and supplies can be guaranteed. It is impossible for the two Turkic incidents to happen again!"

"There are still many real conveniences, such as disaster relief, or where there is a rebellion, the imperial court can also quickly arrive and eliminate it. Railways and trains are really the gospel brought to us by the prince!"

Everyone started talking in low voices again, looking at Su Feng with admiration.

If it wasn't for the appearance of the other party, how could they enjoy such convenience?
Even if it was based on imagination, it would never have imagined the current situation!
Especially when Su Feng finally mentioned that the railway will eventually reach Tubo, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

If it is true what Su Feng said, the prestige of Datang will make everyone tremble.

Even when they saw Su Feng's plan now, they couldn't help feeling overwhelmed, not to mention that the surrounding countries saw that kind of battle with their own eyes.

Wei Zheng's hands couldn't help shaking, isn't this what he would like to see the most?
When he made up his mind to follow Li Shimin, he wanted to help him build a Tang Dynasty where the people live and work in peace and everyone is safe.

And now...Su Feng has already done it...
