Chapter 371: Cold Beauty
Ang Lee carefully studied the ironclad gun truck, and analyzed the problems provided by the R&D personnel to analyze the faults of the gun truck, so as to give more accurate rectification suggestions. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Li Yu and Li Li came to see the excitement, they were more concerned about how to cross the battlefield after the successful development of the ironclad artillery car, how to annihilate the enemy with zero casualties, how to reflect the strength of the Tang Empire, and even, after seeing the ironclad artillery car, the two of them also came up with the idea of personally leading the army to annihilate the enemy.
In the eyes of these two men, as long as there are enough miles of ironclad artillery vehicles, they will definitely be able to win the war, even if the commander is an ordinary person who has never read a military book.
After studying for a while, Li An found out some problems and handed them over to the R&D talents, so that they could immediately rectify them according to this idea and successfully develop the ironclad artillery car as soon as possible.
In fact, there is a simpler weapon, that is, the ironclad chariot without artillery, this kind of vehicle does not need to consider the recoil of the artillery, and can be directly manufactured without much effort in research and development, and it can have a greater mileage than the ironclad artillery car.
However, such an ironclad chariot can only be used to crush or protect senior leaders, and does not have super long-range strike capabilities, so Li An is not too enthusiastic about this, and is ready to concentrate resources on making an ironclad artillery truck first, and when the ironclad artillery cart begins to be mass-produced, and after Datang's iron supply is more sufficient, then immediately build the ironclad chariot in batches, so that it can be used as a vassal of the ironclad artillery car, follow the ironclad artillery car to charge, and create greater value at a lower price.
Subsequently, Li An took Li Yu and Li Li to visit the R&D department of large steam turbines and large propellers, and told Li Yu and Li Li about the situation after these big guys were built and equipped with large sea ships, which shocked Li Yu and Li Li.
In the direction of Luoyang City, Li Huaijie, the king of Khitan, and Li Yanzhong, the king of Xi, walked side by side, this pair of difficult brothers and brothers, often bullied by An Lushan in the northeast, of course, they also joined forces to fight a few beautiful counterattacks, but the foundation of the Tang Empire is too thick, and An Lushan can be fully replenished every time it is damaged, whether it is manpower or weapons, it can be fully equipped, and the two of them are not good, the damage to the Tang Empire is not too big if they win, and they will lose a lot once they fail.
A few years ago, with the support of the Turks, they could still get a lot of assistance, but now the Turks have completely lost the country, and the old opponent An Lushan is also the envoy of Fan Yangjie, and the troops under his command have increased several times, posing a greater threat to them.
In addition to helplessness, this pair of difficult brothers and sisters had to bow their heads to the Tang Dynasty and beg the Tang Dynasty to make peace, so that everyone is a family, and naturally there is no need to attack each other.
Of course, Li Huaijie and Li Yanpet are not fuel-efficient lamps, their attachment is not out of their own hearts, but an expedient measure in desperation, once there is chaos within Datang, they will not hesitate to rush out and take a bite.
"Brother Huaijie, do you say that it is really a wise move for us to make peace with Datang this time?"
Li Yanpet looked at Li Huaijie beside him and frowned.
"It's hard to say! The Tang Emperor is already old, he can't listen to his advice, and there are more and more villains around him, otherwise An Lushan, a dog thief, would not be such a big official, and the entire Hebei Province is under his control. ”
Li Huaijie sighed helplessly.
"It seems that Brother Huaijie and I are worried about the same situation, even if we marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty, An Lushan may not be able to stop."
Li Yanpet smiled helplessly.
"So what, the Turks have already perished, with our current strength, if we don't take refuge in Li Tang, there will be no place at all, I hope that after we are attached, An Lushan can settle down a little."
Li Huaijie said softly.
"What Brother Huaijie said is that we can only take one step at a time, everything depends on the will of God, and we can drive."
Li Yanpet said, and galloped forward with a fierce horse, disengaging from Li Huaijie.
"Hanlu, why are you sullen, who made you unhappy."
Li Yanpet caught up with Li Hanlu and walked side by side with him, looking at Li Hanlu with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"When did King Huaixin ever see me happy?"
Li Hanlu replied coldly, not giving Li Yanpet a chance at all.
"Hanlu, you should smile more, it's really bad to keep your face strained all the time."
"If King Huaishun doesn't like it, don't look at it."
Li Hanlu said, riding his horse and running away.
As one of the seven tribes of the Xi clan and the leader of the Nujun tribe, Li Hanlu needs to follow Li Yanzhong to Chang'an City and accept the reward from Emperor Li Longji, if it weren't for this reason, she would definitely not go with Li Yanzhong.
However, at this time, the Nu Du Department is no longer the largest part of the Xi tribe, but has become a small tribe with a small number of people, the reason is that Li Tagu insisted on going south, and was heavily injured by the Tang Dynasty soldiers and horses, and after returning to the tribe, he was attacked by An Lushan many times, and the losses were further aggravated, and Li Tagu himself was killed in battle, and the remnants of the troops were led by Li Hanlu.
"Brother Yan, you like such a cold beauty."
Li Huaijie rode his horse and chased after him, looking at Li Yanpet, who was unwilling.
"This is the first beauty of my Xi clan, of course I like it."
Li Yanpet's tone was a little angry.
"Haha! Leng Beauty is not only beautiful, but also has thousands of people under her command, if Brother Yan can hold the beauty, it can be said to kill two birds with one stone! ”
Li Huaijie teased.
"Brother Huaijie said with a smile, I have a crush on the people of Hanlu, and as for the thousands of people, I have never taken it to heart."
Li Yanpet said arrogantly.
"Haha! I really didn't see it, Brother Yan is still a person who values feelings, but we are going to marry Princess Datang soon, Leng Meiren still forgot about it! ”
Li Huaijie grinned.
"If Han Lu is willing to marry me, I would rather kill Princess Datang."
Li Yanpet pounded his thigh angrily.
"Brother Yanpet, this is already Luoyang City, and some things must not be said nonsense."
Li Huaijie was taken aback and hurriedly stopped.
"I'm sorry, I lost my word."
Li Yanpet said, looking at Li Hanlu, who was getting farther and farther away, his eyes were full of unwillingness.
In the direction of Luoyang City Railway Station, Li Yaer looked at the behemoth in front of her in surprise, the last time she passed through Luoyang City, she had not seen this kind of thing, it was only a few years of work, and such a behemoth appeared in Luoyang City, which surprised her.
"What is this? How big is it? ”
Li Yaer rode to the train station and asked the employees in the station about the situation.
The staff at the train station saw that Li Yaer was beautiful, and they were very willing to tell Li Yaer all the situation of the train, and even took the initiative to say a lot of things, hoping to chat more with Li Yaer.
It turns out that this is actually something invented by the eldest brother, the eldest brother is so powerful! ’
Li Ya'er smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth, feeling very happy.
"Bud, why are you running so fast."
Li Hanlu rode up and looked at Li Ya'er who was standing at the gate of the train station.
"Sister Hanlu, look, such a big train was invented by my eldest brother, and many things we saw on the road were invented by my eldest brother."
Li Ya'er said proudly.
"What a big guy."
Li Hanlu sighed.
"Two ladies, this train is amazing, after getting on the train, it only takes half a day to get to Luoyang City, what if it takes half a month to take a carriage?"
The railway employee said with a smile, approaching the second girl.
"We are the retinue of King Waishin, can we take your train?"
Li Ya'er asked.
"It turns out that you are the retinue of King Huaixin, and the imperial court specially set aside a train to welcome you, see it! It was the one with the purple and red car, and at the end there was a row of cyan cars. ”
Li Ya'er was overjoyed and looked at Li Hanlu: "Sister, let's go over now and see what it's like inside the train." ”
"But what about our horses? Can you get on the bus too? ”
Li Hanlu looked at the railway employees.
"Of course, the cyan carriage in the back is specially used to put horses, and I will take you in."
Very warm introduction from the railway staff and led the way in front,
After the two girls tied up their horses, the railway employee led the two girls to the soft seat car in front and asked them to sit down.
"Haha! Sister, it's so comfortable to sit here! What is this, you can actually see the situation outside? ”
Li Ya'er leaned on the seat excitedly and patted the medicinal jade glass next to her with her hand.
"Two ladies, this is medicinal jade glass, which was invented by our Tang Dynasty Li Shilang, and it is a good thing."
Li Ya'er smiled and asked, "Everything in this train was invented by Li Shilang, right?" ”
"The little lady is really ice and snow smart, that's right, many of my good things in the Tang Dynasty were invented by Li Shilang, and when you get to the capital, you will know how powerful Li Shilang is."
Li Hanlu stood up and asked coldly, "We can walk casually." ”
"No problem, I'll show you the way."
The railway staff walked in front very enthusiastically, and glanced behind them from time to time, and it was worth it to see beautiful women.
"Two ladies, this is the best soft sleeper car, there is no problem sleeping in it, and each small room is equipped with a fireplace, however, the honeycomb coal has to be purchased at your own expense, this time in order to welcome the king of Huaishun and the king of Huaixin, all the honeycomb coal of the fireplace is free, and it has been burned"
"Sister, let's go in and have a look."
Li Ya'er opened a small room, and suddenly, a warm wave of heat rushed up.
"Wow, it's so warm! Sister, come in. ”
Li Yaer ran into the soft sleeper private room, sat directly on the soft small bed, and looked curiously at all the places in the small private room.
"Two ladies, like this soft sleeper car, it is the best carriage in my Tang Dynasty, generally only the powerful are willing to spend money to sit, and the average poor can't afford to sit down."
"Thank you, Xiao Langjun, we're sitting here."
Li Ya'er laughed happily.
"And who are you?"
"O retinue of King Huaixin!"
"This ...... Please be considerate that the entourage can only sit on the chairs like the one just now, not in the private rooms, which are reserved for those above the chief. ”
Li Ya'er smiled and said loudly: "Listen, my sister is the leader of the Nu Du Clan, and I am her sister." ”
"Disrespectful, disrespectful, it turned out to be the big chief's sister, you guys have a good rest, I'll go out and greet the others."
The railroad employee responded with a smile and turned to leave.
"Sister, this person is really good, so good to us."
Li Yaer said.
"This person is not good, I don't like it."
"Well, my sister said it was not good, then it was not good!"
Soon, Li Huaijie and Li Yanpet's brigade arrived at Luoyang City Railway Station, and under the personal reception of the stationmaster, they boarded the aristocratic train in turn.
These barbarian people from remote mountainous areas have naturally never seen tall trains, and the two teams, including Li Yanpet and Li Huaijie, all looked at the various facilities in the Luoyang Railway Station with a very shocked expression.
When they heard that the Tang Dynasty court had let them take the train into Beijing and arrive in Chang'an City early tomorrow morning, everyone was shocked and speechless.
In order to prevent these hillbillies from making trouble, more than a dozen officials sent by the capital to greet them traveled by train, and were responsible for explaining the most basic situation of the train to these hillbillies, so that they could realize the wealth and powerful technological level of Datang.
The train departs in the afternoon and slows down after dark, so the train arrives at Chang'an City Railway Station early the next morning.
When the train rumbled off, few of the hillbillies in the train were sitting, almost all of them were crowded close to Yaoyu's window, curiously looking at the moving scenery outside the window, and it was not until nearly half an hour later that they gradually stabilized, and their behavior was naturally despised by the Tang officials and the train staff.
Because the train has to run for a long time to arrive at Chang'an City Railway Station, in order to prevent these hillbillies from holding back their urine and polluting the high-end carriages, the Datang officials told them about the Gongfang in the crack of the train early, which caused a commotion, and many people who did not need it also ran to the crack to see a strange, which made the Datang officials in charge of the reception despise it greatly, and lamented that the barbarians are the barbarians, without a little self-cultivation and no knowledge.
The delicacies served on the train are all delicious invented by Ang Lee himself, and the taste is naturally much better than roasted half-cooked wild meat.
Of course, the quality of these big chiefs is not much higher, and they often occupy a whole table with two people, which makes the dining car even more crowded, and many people have to run to the soft-seat carriage with large bowls.
"Sister, there is a lot of commotion in the dining car, and we can't eat."
Li Ya'er returned to the soft-seated private room, frowning, she was very hungry, but she didn't want to squeeze into the dining car with these rude men.
"I'm not hungry, I still have some dry food in the bag, you can eat some first!"
Li Hanlu looked out the window, not knowing what she was thinking.
