Li Yuanxing had no involvement in the affairs of the Ministry of Labor. The construction of the Chang'an-Yi Railway was a national policy of the Tang Dynasty. It can be said that all the manpower, financial and material resources of the entire Jiannan Road were used. Chang'an used 8 million from the national treasury.
The treasury expenditure alone was an astronomical figure for the entire Tang Dynasty.
Even Wude's annual income fell far short of this standard.
But this railway must be repaired.
Li Yuanxing lived in Qinling Mountains for seven days. During the seven days, he visited four construction sites last year, including two tunnels, a not-so-long bridge, and a section of mountain road.
"Your Highness, this is the ancient plank road. The emperor of the Han Dynasty walked here to fight back against the Overlord. This is also the old road of the Qinling Mountains." A guard who grew up in the mountains introduced Li Yuanxing.
In one section, the wooden plank road on the cliff is still in use.
Year after year, people are constantly repairing this place. Every mountain carrier who passes here will repair the damaged parts. This distance of several hundred feet has cost countless lives.
At this time, with the help of powerful steam drills and detonators, a road three feet wide had been carved out, and a road with a trapezoidal and angular cross-section was dug out of the stone wall. It was three feet wide and the actual road surface was
There is also a little more than two feet, so there is no problem in driving two large vehicles in parallel.
"In my name, I tell the Governor of Jiannan Road that when the railway opens to traffic, I will be the first train bound for Chang'an. I want to see five hundred golden nanmu."
"Your Highness, what is golden nanmu?" Pei Xi asked from the side.
"Three thousand years of immortal wood. If the Governor of Jiannan Road didn't understand and asked him to send him to Chang'an, he would also tell him by the way. Mrs. Weiguo is old. Not to mention that her family of sixty-three died for my father. She is the only one who died for my father."
As the royal nurse, I, as a junior, should also do my part."
After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, Pei Xi boldly interjected. "Your Highness, can't you ask the flying boat to bring some?"
"Mrs. Wei Guo's ancestors are from Shu!"
Pei Xi understood and immediately ordered someone to pass on the message. A guard then approached Pei Xi and whispered a few words. Pei Xi nodded solemnly and came to Li Yuanxing's side: "Your Highness, the Japanese have been recruited."
"Pick the key points!"
"His name is Inoue Daichio. He is a nobleman of the Japanese country. Under the orders of Prince Shotoku, the chief eunuch of the Japanese country, he mixed with Japanese laborers and sneaked into the Tang Dynasty. They sent a total of 700 people, and he recruited more than 60 people. We have already started from
He was caught among the workers. This guy is a tough guy, and he confessed after being tortured for seven days, so I’m not sure it’s true.”
Continue the trial, interrogate all relevant people, notify the Imperial Security Department, notify the Ministry of War, and notify Li Zhongshu.
The matter of Tianying Pavilion's supervision of the country finally came to an end, and Li Er successfully implemented the separation of powers in his plan. Under mutual constraints, Li Er felt more at ease with the country of Datang.
Upon hearing that there were Japanese spies, Li Jing, and Hou Junji, Qin Qiong rushed to Qin Wangzhuang without any hesitation.
It was already evening when Li Yuanxing returned to Qinwangzhuang.
"Have you three eaten?"
"Can you eat it?" Li Jing said in a low tone: "The Japanese prince is actually a capable person. He reformed the Japanese laws, ranks, official system, etc. Based on current analysis, at least three or four hundred of his people have sneaked into Izumo and other places.
In our surrounding territory, how much influence does it have on Izumo? Shubao needs to send some smart people to the Japanese island."
Qin Qiong did not answer, but nodded silently.
Qin Qiong's expression made Li Jing wonder. Qin Qiong must have known something for a long time.
"Start the war and let the Japanese know about our Tang Dynasty military front!" Hou Junji was full of confidence.
Li Yuanxing did not answer immediately, but invited three people into the room, and after ordering dinner to be prepared, he said: "There are not enough soldiers at the moment, so don't fight if we can. This time, we will fight to the death. The real battle still depends on
We ourselves and the Japanese soldiers may not be reliable."
"I'm afraid of betrayal in battle!" Hou Junji also echoed.
Li Yuanxing stood up, poured tea for the three of them, and continued: "This battle is not about whether we can win, but how we fight it. What will happen after the battle is over? How should the Japanese and Tang people get along in the future, unless you are ruthless and exterminate them?"
But exterminating the Japanese will arouse the fear of the surrounding small countries. This is more complicated than fighting a war. If we talk about fighting a war, leading the troops to get food and then going out, that is such a happy thing, but this is
Is it possible?"
No need to answer, this is absolutely impossible.
Qin Qiong said at this time: "Wu Lang, Princess Lanyue is about to give birth, I will just worry about the Japanese island."
Li Jing also said: "How can the Tang Dynasty live without King Qin?"
Hahaha, Li Yuanxing laughed heartily: "Okay, I will listen to you."
"But!" Li Jing paused for a moment and then said: "However, Goro still needs to conquer Japan in person. In such a battle to destroy the country, even if Goro just sits in the back and drinks tea, the combat power of the Tang army will be increased by at least 30%."
"No problem, we will conquer the Japanese island. I will go with the Emperor Xian."
Li Yuanxing believed that when the Japanese islands were destroyed, the cabinet master would be willing to witness the process with his own eyes.
After dinner, the three of them left Qinwangzhuang together.
After leaving the door, Li Jing asked Qin Qiong: "Shu Bao, you didn't come here to provoke a battle on the Japanese island. It seems that you knew something in advance?"
"The Izumo incident must not be hidden. So last year I deployed enough people. There are more than dozens of Japanese spies, and we have them at our ports. But there is no way. If the Japanese spies are eliminated, it means
We know the movement of the Japanese nation Yamato, which also means a direct declaration of war."
"That makes sense!" Li Jing agreed with Qin Qiong's statement.
Qin Qiong continued: "Wu Lang is in Nanyang, where it is very hard. If there is no Wu Lang, no one in the Tang Dynasty can conquer the Three Buddhas. Naturally, it is impossible for the Holy One to conquer the little Three Buddhas in person, so a certain person requested the Holy One's order.
,Didn’t bother Goro about Japan Island!”
Li Jing also knew that Li Yuanxing had only been back to Chang'an for a few days.
"We knew we were mortal enemies with the Japanese, but we pretended to be confused. This time, Wu Lang ordered 300,000 laborers, but it really touched the Japanese. Just imagine, one-tenth of the people of the Tang Dynasty were taken away.
, can we, the Tang Dynasty, sit idly by and ignore it? So the Japanese will definitely take some actions."
Hou Junji was a little confused: "General Qin, why don't you tell His Highness the King of Qin this?"
"Why do you want to say that?" Qin Qiong asked back and then smiled: "Don't Hou Shangshu not want to destroy the Japanese country? How many people in the Tang Dynasty want to attack the Japanese country, let alone the various aristocratic families, it is only the largest island in the Tang Dynasty
According to this statement, the Japanese island is the outer defense fortress of our Datang Dynasty, and we only need an excuse to fight the war."
Hou Junji sighed softly: "The case file said that the Japanese island has a population of four million. It is expected that it can have at least 500,000 to 800,000 combat troops. I would like to study it carefully and how to fight.
"
Li Jing patted Hou Junji on the shoulder: "In the first battle, only I, Sergeant of the Tang Dynasty, am the most reliable!"
"What Mr. Li said is that the Turks and other foreign soldiers can be used in the second battle, and the Izumo Japanese soldiers can be used in the subsequent clean-up. But in the first battle, only the elite of the Tang Dynasty can be used. What other suggestions does Mr. Li have for the first battle?"
"No suggestion, you are the Minister of War. However, I can lend you a few sets of military books for your reference!"
"Thank you very much, Mr. Li!" Hou Junji cupped his fists and saluted.
To fight or not to fight, how to fight. Although Li Yuanxing was preparing to rest, he was also thinking about it in his heart.
To destroy a country for no reason, there must be a reason.
His mind was a little confused, and Li Yuanxing did not intend to come up with a plan immediately, so he walked towards the place where Li Lanshan lived.
Inside the house, Li Lanshan was having her legs massaged by several maids. Due to her pregnancy, her feet were a little swollen.
These maids have been trained by Taoist women. They know very well what kind of massage is effective and is good for both mother and child.
Half lying on the bed, there were maids holding fruits, and another maid was preparing to feed a cut piece to Li Lanshan's mouth. Li Lanshan was so lazy that she didn't even open her eyes. Li Yuanxing looked amused and gestured to the maids.
Don't say anything, take the plate, sit next to Li Lanshan, and then put a piece of pineapple brought from the south into Li Lanshan's mouth.
After just one bite, Li Lanshan opened her eyes.
"I disturbed the princess, and the little king felt uneasy!" Li Yuanxing smiled.
Li Lanshan also smiled, waved her hand to signal the maids to leave, and then said to Li Yuanxing: "You are clumsy, you know that after I open my mouth, that girl will never let the fruit touch my teeth, she will definitely let it go gently.
In the mouth, if you just put it in like this, you obviously have no training."
"You have really fallen!"
"It's not degeneration, it's just doing as the Romans do." Li Lanshan emphasized.
Seeing that Li Yuanxing didn't understand, Li Lanshan said: "When you went to Nanyang, once I was a little hot and my neck was sweating. Then I got up and wiped the sweat with a towel. Did you know that I was not pregnant at that time?
How many days?"
Li Yuanxing nodded.
Li Lanshan continued: "But who would have thought that if my personal maid knelt down to plead guilty, I would not be willing to blame her. But this matter was still spread, and your manager Zheng He beat each of my thirty maids.
He hit his calf twenty times. I want to persuade him. He has a document signed by the emperor’s wife. Obviously, if they don’t serve me well, the worst case scenario is that they may be exiled 20,000 miles away!”
"Exiled... twenty thousand miles?" Li Yuanxing laughed after hearing this.
"That's right, three thousand miles of exile is no longer a punishment, so now it's changed to the most serious sentence of thirty thousand miles of exile." Just after explaining the rumors, Li Lanshan slapped Li Yuanxing: "You are the only one who knows how to do errands. You are talking about business!"
"
"Okay, let's get down to business!" Li Yuanxing laughed along with him.
"Just tell them, if I want to eat, let me do it myself. The person responsible for the diet will be punished. I need to take a walk every day, but the walk can only be done barefoot on the warm stone ground that is characteristic of the garden, from the room to the
The garden must be carried across, otherwise someone will definitely be punished.”
As Li Lanshan talked, Li Yuanxing was surprised when he heard it.
There is a pipe under the stone, which is heated and specially used for Li Lanshan to take a walk. Luxury is no longer enough to describe it. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
