"Hey, Father, why are you here? My son is busy with experiments, so..."

Guo Zhishun finally saw Guo Hao. Guo Hao waved his hand with a smile and said, "It doesn't matter, there is no need to be too polite."

Then Guo Hao took two steps forward, looked at the box in Guo Zhishun's hand and asked, "Is this your phone number for research? Is it successful?"

When Guo Zhishun heard the phone, he nodded excitedly and said, "It's successful. We have been studying for more than a year and finally succeeded!"

Guo Hao nodded: "Then, how far can the sound be transmitted."

Speaking of this, Guo Zhishun looked proud: "We rushed to a ten-mile line, my aunt was there, and I was here."

Ten miles away!

That was five kilometers. Guo Hao didn't expect that Shen Xin was so powerful, which didn't mean he got the phone out.

"Is it okay to be farther away?"

Guo Zhishun nodded: "Yes, but it requires a larger voltage. Now our generator is only more than thirty volts at the highest level. We have never tried it no matter how high it is."

The development of electrical appliances is faster than Guo Hao imagined. In fact, the principle of power generation is not complicated, and it is mainly applied and produced.

"Okay, continue to improve the phone number, and strive to lay a telephone line while laying the railway so that we can call in real time and communicate in a timely manner."

Guo Zhishun nodded. The railway paving needs to be completed in Beijing. They still have time to build a larger generator to further improve the phone.

After putting down the phone, Guo Hao visited the "military factory". Don't underestimate the wisdom of the ancients. After Shen Xin's guidance, machine tools have appeared in the factory.

Using the principle of pulleys, machine tools can already process some parts, which accelerates gun manufacturing, and now guns have begun to be semi-automated.

After trying the new gun, Guo Hao rewarded the craftsmen. This place is the most core secret of the Song Dynasty. It is easy for them to come in, but difficult for them to go out, so Guo Hao is very nice to them.

The application of steam engines is becoming more and more mature, but the research on internal combustion engines is not going smoothly, mainly because the strength of the steel is insufficient and the accuracy of the parts is much worse.

Although Guo Hao really wanted to see an internal combustion engine and get on a car, the development of technology will take time, and the development of the Song Dynasty has been very fast.

After several technological reforms, guns and bullets can be formed into production lines. As long as there is enough raw materials, guns and bullets will be continuously manufactured.

Guo Hao was already very satisfied to be able to do this, and the military factory has also developed grenades, and the cannon has made great progress, with smaller size and longer range.

With these weapons, the Song Dynasty was already invincible. What he needed to do next was to exert the power of these weapons.

Just when Guo Hao was about to leave, Shen Xin finally came back and saw that Guo Hao and Shen Xin didn't say anything.

She had heard about the things in the palace. She thought Guo Hao was very ruthless. His wife, who had been deposed for decades, would not stop Guo Yongning from becoming a monk. How cruel was he?

Guo Hao also noticed the strangeness in her eyes, with a hint of fear, a hint of doubt, and a hint of indifference.

The distance between the two suddenly became very far, which made Guo Hao feel very distressed, but he couldn't explain anything.

Feudal society is incomparable to later generations. Even if Guo Hao actively changes, as long as he is the emperor, he cannot change his essence.

He actually wanted to treat Qiunan and the others kindly. After all, he had been together for decades, so how could he have no feelings?

But the emperor is not free. He is not inferior to anyone, but belongs to the country and the people.

Anyone who wants to possess him will become an enemy of the country.

Anyone who wants to be his own emperor is likely to be a fool.

Guo Hao does not want to be a fool, nor does he want his family to be enemies with the country, so he can only endure the pain and protect them in ways that the world does not understand.

Whether it is Qiunan, Li Fu, Guo Yongning or Abuli, if the crimes they committed were replaced by ordinary people, they would have died countless times.

Even Guo Hao, his hands were filled with blood. He launched countless wars under the banner of national justice and under the guise of unifying China.

How many people died in the war.

How many people died in the struggle?

There is no difference between the two, because those people are voluntarily, and their struggles and sacrifices are for future generations, and everything Guo Hao does is also for future generations.

Shen Xin didn't understand this, and simply felt that Guo Hao was too cruel. As her former girlfriend, she suddenly couldn't understand Guo Hao.

Guo Hao could only sigh at this. To this day, he has become a real lonely man.

After leaving the Gewu Academy, Guo Hao returned to the palace. Chen Xuan and Zhao Pu were waiting for him, and the three of them came to Gongchu Hall.

"Sit down, what's the matter?"

The two of them did not sit, but looked at each other, and Zhao Pu bowed and said, "Your Majesty, we occupy the Western Regions, but the development of the two places is very difficult.

In the past six months, we have migrated many people, but those vassals are not adapting to the environment of the Central Plains, and the people in the Central Plains are unwilling to live in the Western Regions.”

Guo Hao nodded when he heard this. He had already expected this. He glanced at Chen Xuan and said, "Is there any way you two can solve this problem."

The two looked at each other, and Chen Xuan said, "After researching the Western issue, the cabinet felt that it would be better to let them manage it themselves instead of excessive interference.

If the court participates in it, it will consume a lot of financial and material resources. If it is in the long run, the court will likely not make ends meet."

After Chen Xuan said that, Zhao Pu nodded. They still did not value the western region enough, mainly because the environment there was too harsh.

However, the soldiers worked hard to overcome difficulties and ignored them when they found them. Without the constraints and help of the central government, the west will not only fail to develop, but social contradictions will also lead to their independence.

Guo Hao looked at the two of them and asked expressionlessly: "Is this what you two mean, or what the cabinet means?"

Both of them were stunned. When they noticed Guo Hao's displeasure, Zhao Pu stood up with a tough bullet and said, "This is a decision made by the cabinet after discussion. There is really no need for the court..."

"Enough, you literati don't understand strategy at all. Since the rise of the Turks in ancient times, the border has been a major concern in the Central Plains.

The soldiers of the Song Dynasty were basically stationed on the frontier. If they were not for them, there would be no such thing as yours.

Although the environment in Xinjiang and Tibet is harsh, it is not a natural barrier. When Shi Jingtang ceded the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, he almost destroyed the Zhengshuo of Huaxia.

Now our Song Dynasty is surrounded by the sea in the southeast. There is a Great Wall in the north, but the west is only there is no natural danger to guard. Moreover, the vassals are in chaos and always harass the Central Plains.

Now that the two places have been regained, our Song Dynasty monopolizes the east of the mainland, can dominate the world and stand proudly in the world. When you encounter this difficulty, will you retreat?"

After Guo Hao said that, the two looked ugly, and Zhao Pu was even more shocked. He didn't expect Guo Hao's situation to be so big.

Before, Zhao Pu also thought it was a good thing to expand territory. Now that the military's mission has been completed, they know the difficulty of governance.

As cabinet ministers, their duty is to assist Guo Hao in governing the world. There is no problem with the Central Plains, but the western region is too difficult to manage.

Guo Hao felt a little disappointed when he saw the two of them not speaking, but it was not their fault, after all, vision determines thinking.

"Well, you call everyone else, I have my own arrangements for this matter."

When they heard Guo Hao's words, they were as if they were amnesty and soon called everyone in the cabinet, and also called the ministers of the Ministry of War and the Military Affairs Department.

"I have two plans here. You can take a look first. I have considered the issue of the western region."

After saying that, Guo Hao asked the eunuch to send the plan to the ministers. When they saw the title, they were stunned.

The Western Development and Production and Construction Corps!

The great development of the western region is familiar to people from later generations. It is mainly the development of western China, with the purpose of developing the western economy.

The great development of Guo Hao, the western region, is different from later generations. The purpose is to gradually promote development from the western part of the Central Plains.

Several provinces in the western Central Plains, because they are located in the inland and are the political and economic centers, their development level is not as good as the central and southeastern coasts.

So Guo Hao started from here to develop the people's livelihood economy, thus affecting Xinjiang and Tibet and driving the economies of the two places.

The Production and Construction Corps is also a product of the times. It is too slow to rely on the people to develop. In addition to the difficulty in changing living habits, it is not easy to implement some of the imperial decrees.

The army is different. They regard obeying orders as their duty and can be said to be the easiest person to control.
