Ye Chunqiu could not suppress the tension and excitement in his heart. He put down the account book and found that his hands were trembling uncontrollably. Although he had confidence in this, he knew very well that any mistake would be very likely to cause a catastrophe.

What we need to do now is to stabilize it, wait until the railway is completed and the business continues to expand.

The busy days seem to pass very quickly. The hot summer has passed quickly. Now it is late autumn. In just a few months, the railway has begun to be built. Countless iron ore has been sent to the steel workshop to melt into iron. Then it has begun to produce customized railway tracks. Then it is transported to the planned construction site by load-carrying trucks. The roadbed has been paved with sleepers and gravel, and it only needs to be paved.

The Zhenguo Mansion Research Institute is fully responsible for technical guidance. Some people explore the land, some have designed plans long ago. Those with engineering experience are patrolling back and forth on this big artery that is about to be formed, and as the project progresses, they are constantly modifying the plans.

Fortunately, the land outside the pass is flat, there are not many mountains and rivers, and the project is not difficult. But after all, it was the first construction, and there were a lot of chaos in the middle, so the people from the institute had to re-plan it repeatedly, and even several construction sections had to be reworked.

The steaming car in the institute is also improving in an orderly manner. They experiment again and again and again, looking for better improvement solutions. The improved drawings alone weigh more than ten tons, and a steaming car alone is enough to become a discipline, so that people who are conducting in-depth research increasingly feel that their knowledge is just the tip of the iceberg.

In the past, whether it was a gun, a cannon, or a crystal glass, one could understand all the principles and even conduct research alone. However, now, a giant like a steam car must work together in a team.

I did encounter a lot of trouble in the middle. The person who was responsible for the wheels and the possibility of the piston cylinder was not in line with the possibility of being responsible for the piston cylinder, but gradually, they began to learn how to integrate.

With the passage of a large number of manpower, unimaginable prosperity appeared outside the pass, especially in Qinglong and Qinhuangdao, which was noisy as high as the capital. In the city that rose out of thin air, the sky was always filled with haze because of the chimneys of countless workshops, but it was full of vitality.

Ye Chunqiu seemed busy, but also fulfilled in Beijing. He had to read too many reports every day. The population in Qinglong was overcrowded and underground waterways were needed. Public security was deteriorating, so he needed to recruit more police officers. New military forces began to plan a new site because the camp was originally on the edge of the city, but now he found that the surrounding area was now a downtown area, and the roads needed to be widened. Because there were too many vehicles, the casualties and injuries in the workshop were also rising. It was very necessary to conduct some supervision. The school was insufficient and several more schools needed to be built. What problems had occurred in the construction of the railway? It seemed that the project was beginning to stop, and the laws were increasingly unable to adapt to the current changes. Too many new things happened, making the original laws and regulations unable to shock the villains.

Ye Chunqiu thought about a main branch at the beginning, but ignored the fact that when the big goal was implemented, things became more and more complicated, and many trivial things arose. Ye Chunqiu had to think of one thing. It seemed that it was very necessary to establish a small cabinet in Shengyuan Country, but now, it still needs to be pondered.

But at this time, a quick note disrupted all the peace of mind.

Someone came from the palace quickly and asked Ye Chunqiu to enter the palace to meet him immediately.

Ye Chunqiu did not dare to neglect. When he quickly felt the warm cabinet, he found that several cabinet ministers had already arrived here.

Ye Chunqiu and Wang Hua, Xie Qian nodded and smiled at Yang Yiqing again, while Yang Yiqing nodded to him with concern.

Li Dongyang is still a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, but unfortunately he lost the chief minister, but now he is being suppressed. Life must be difficult. He just looked down on his face and ignored Ye Chunqiu.

Zhu Houzhao did not sit behind the imperial throne, but stood. When he saw Ye Chunqiu coming, he immediately raised his voice and said, "Chunqiu, I have been waiting for you for a long time. Look, this is the latest report."

Ye Chunqiu did not hesitate and took the report from Liu Jin. After just taking a closer look, he realized that something happened, and it was a big deal...

The Tatars attacked Tongliao.

Speaking of Tongliao, it was once the jurisdiction of the Mongolian tribes. After Emperor Wen's northern expedition, Tongliao was also under the jurisdiction of the "Three Guards of Duoyan", and most of them belong to the "Fuyu Guards". This is the gateway to Liaodong. You have to go to Liaodong first, you have to pass Tongliao before you can reach Jinzhou and enter Liaodong in one fell swoop.

There were more than 20,000 Fuyu Guards stationed in Tongliao, and more than 5,000 cavalrymen who were good at fighting. The court also provided them with some supplies and even firearms.

But unexpectedly, the Tatars defeated Fuyu Guard overnight, beheaded ten thousand people, seized Tongliao, and obtained countless cattle and sheep.

Even some nearby Han people's pastures were inevitably deeply harmed, several pastures were destroyed and hundreds of herders were killed.

Ye Chunqiu looked at it, his brows slightly sank.

Although the memorial did not indicate how many Tatars were, and only used general words such as covering the clouds and sunlight to describe it, Ye Chunqiu knew in his heart that the number was at least 50,000, otherwise it would be impossible to be destroyed in such a way.

And in Ye Chunqiu's view, this is a sign. It seems that Nabatu Monk Khan was finally determined to launch a large-scale advance against the Ming Dynasty.

Batu Mengkhan was the first person to unify Mongolia since the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and enfeoffed his sons to all parts of the desert, setting up seven or eight 30,000 households, thus uniting the entire Mongolia. Now, after hiding and sharpening his knife, he finally couldn't help himself, revealing his bright fangs, and determined to fight hard.

Such large-scale military operations cannot be done casually, obviously premeditated, and have been prepared for a long time.

But... Ye Chunqiu thought of a very important question!

Why is there no news until now?

Ye Chunqiu couldn't help looking at Liu Jin and said, "Eunuch Liu, I heard that the factory guards sent a lot of fine works to Mongolia. Has there any news before?"

Liu Jin suddenly seemed hesitant and started to wander.

He had to say in disappointment: "I sent several groups of people, and before that, there were people who had been with Nabatu Monk Khan. But this time, it was strange that there was no news.

Ye Chunqiu said: "This shows that the formulation of Batumonk Khan's military plan this time is extremely meticulous, and..."
