Chapter 863: Da Ming Departs, Hurry Up!
Lan Yu and they arrived at the train station, and at this moment it was already crowded with people, and Chengguo Gong Zhu Neng led 10,000 people to be responsible for guarding. Outside of these 10,000 people, there are countless ordinary people, all of whom are looking at it with their necks stretched!
The construction of the railway was an order issued after the decision was made to abolish the transportation of the railway...... For this road, the resources and manpower invested are simply incalculable.
If it weren't for Liu Chun's strong prestige, it is estimated that he would have given up halfway.
After nearly five years of hard work, the railway finally began to take shape, when the moment to sit on it, everyone's heart unconsciously emerged two words: worthwhile!
As the actual designer and executor of the railway, Zhu Gaochu cried like a 200-pound child, and the crown prince Zhu Gaochi, who was next to him, had to pat his brother's back hard and keep reminding him.
"Calm down, you must be calm, we have to send our father to Yingtian! If something happens in the middle, we'll be ashamed! ”
Zhu Gaoxu finally calmed down, he wiped his tears, "Big brother, don't worry, I've arranged everything, let's go!" ”
The special train to open the road was departed, and the twelve-car train carrying the crown prince and the king of Han, as well as many official guards, set off an hour in advance to open the way for the Son of Heaven, and at the same time to ensure that the railway was open without any accidents.
If a cliff suddenly appears in front of them, Zhu Dapang and Zhu Lao Er will die, and our Yongle Emperor and Liu Taishi will be absolutely safe and sound.
Of course, the princes and princes of a country are also valuable, so in front of them, in fact, there are cavalry, these people set off earlier, they check the situation along the way, inform the local officials, and prepare for reception.
All in all, it was a well-prepared, well-organized itinerary with no surprises.
Liu Chun was full of confidence and talked and laughed with Zhu Di, but in the eyes of others, he was so surprised that he flew up!
Oh my God!
What is it?
There was thick smoke and fire, and his body was so large and long...... Like the legendary dragon! Could it be that the Lord will tame the dragon and use it as a means of transportation?
It's insane!
Her Royal Highness was full of strange thoughts, and she suddenly realized that the position where she was sitting was the belly of the "evil dragon", could it be that she was going to become the other party's food?
The princess was so frightened that she quickly stood up, turned around and was about to run.
Fortunately, Chang Mao pulled her back, although Chang Mao was also very scared, but he still had a trace of sanity.
"Don't panic! There is a great tomorrow, what are you afraid of! ”
Her Royal Highness the Princess finally calmed down when she heard the words of the Great Tomorrow.
Maybe the emperor of such a superpower really has incredible abilities, right? Even drop God, you must bless me! The princess clutched the cross on her chest and prayed.
And the great tomorrow with "divine power" is very leisurely, he dragged his boots, barefoot, lazily leaning on the sleeper, opposite him, it was the bed of Taishi Liu Chun.
Compared with Zhu Di's relaxation, Liu Chun put his hands in his hands, and he was worried when he thought of going through a long journey with Zhu Di.
"Your Majesty, otherwise, when it's night, let's get out of the car and find a place to rest, after all, it's still a little troublesome to travel at night."
Zhu Di snorted, "What's the trouble?" ”
"In case there is an animal on the railroad tracks, or if there is an accident, there is no time to respond. So it's better not to travel overnight. ”
Zhu Di is not an elm pimple, and he adopted half of Liu Chun's suggestion.
"I promised to rest at night, but I won't get out of the car at any time! I'm going to experience the wonderful feeling of going from Jingshi to Yingtian. Zhu Di is determined to sleep on a small sleeper.
"Hurry up and tell the following, hurry up and drive! "
Liu Chun really can't do anything about Zhu Laosi, what's the good feeling about this, it's just such a wide one, it's strange that it can be comfortable? However, the order of His Majesty the Emperor, who dares to disobey.
Finally, this royal train started.
The train clicked and moved slowly...... Jin Youzi, a university scholar, Song Li, a scholar of the Ministry of Industry, Xie Jin, a scholar of the Ministry of Households, and others couldn't help themselves, stretched their necks, and waved vigorously outside.
Especially at Yang Shiqi and others, who were getting smaller and smaller, laughed out loud.
"Brother Dongzato! We're leaving, and the government affairs of Kyori are all up to you! ”
Yang Shiqi stared at the train in the distance, eating billowing black smoke, and was so angry that he wanted to faint.
Although he had already tested the effect of the train before, it had only been so long, and where was this time! From the capital to Yingtian, if you can really get there so quickly, it is really an unprecedented feat.
You should compose poems and lyrics to commemorate them!
Yang Shiqi looked around, and suddenly found that there were already too many reporters gathered around, witnessing the departure of the train, and everyone's faces turned red.
Write hard, and without a doubt, that's the headline for today!
In addition to these people at the train station, there were also people who simply followed the direction of the train, not wanting to miss any news details.
Zhu Gaoxu has put a lot of effort into the past few years, but his energy is focused on making trains more reliable and safer. As long as the speed of the car is not much improved.
In other words, the fast horse can fully catch up with the train, and even take the lead temporarily.
It doesn't seem to be a big deal, it's not something to be proud of at all!
But after half an hour had passed, the pursuers were dumbfounded, and after an hour all stopped. They looked ashamed at the sweaty, trembling muscles.
From this moment on, they understood a truth, that is, flesh and blood compete with steel!
The train was running tirelessly.
That's not the point, it's the terrible volume that really matters.
Take Zhu Di and Liu Chun's special train as an example.
The carriage they rode in had a total of twenty berths, and in addition to their monarchs and ministers, they were scholars, six scholars, and several important ministers. In addition, there is a carriage for office, and a carriage with important wills.
Beyond that, there are the people.
This royal train alone is loaded with a full 800 people!
Counting the three trains in front and behind, the terrifying transportation capacity of nearly 3,000 people can almost start a skirmish!
Da Ming not only has terrible power, but also powerful speed, which is simply not alive!
"Your Majesty, Tianjin is ahead!"
"Your Majesty, you have entered the territory of Shandong."
"Your Majesty, it's not far from the Yellow River!"
The people below kept reporting the progress of the train, and the smile on Zhu Di's face never stopped, and when he heard that he was going to the Yellow River, he couldn't help but swing his fist!
Stood up excitedly.
Liu Chun on the opposite side looked listless, the clicking sound of this primitive train, and the strong vibration, made him very uncomfortable, and when he passed Tianjin, he didn't eat a few buns sent to him.
It was Zhu Di, who had a great appetite, and ate dozens of them, but fortunately, the people below told him that he still had grilled chicken to eat when he entered Shandong, otherwise he would not have stopped.
"Liu Chun, such a pleasant journey, why can't you keep your spirits up?" Zhu Di couldn't help but reproach: "This is a lightning speed!" How wonderful! I knew you were so boring, I should have called Xie Jin over and asked him to write the lyrics with me, you are too boring. ”
Liu Chun rolled his eyes, he also wanted to get excited, but this broken train couldn't do it!
Zhu Di couldn't stand Liu Chun's death, so he simply threw Liu Chun aside and took the initiative to find other courtiers. When Zhu Di walked out, he found that the mixed-race little doll, Chang Ruyi was running excitedly, and Lan Yu was squatting at the end of the aisle, looking at it with great interest, with a kind face.
Zhu Di saw the little doll running over, stretched out his hand to pick him up, and rubbed the little guy hard with his face full of stubble, causing Chang Ruyi to wrinkle his nose, as if he was about to cry.
Zhu Di hurriedly took out another piece of jade pendant and stuffed it to the little guy before he smiled.
Coincidentally, the train stopped at this moment to replenish water and coal, and Zhu Di simply got off the car and told the little eunuch to invite all the nobles to the platform.
Soon, Zhu Neng, Huo Zhen, Chen Heng, Wang Zhong, Li Yuan, Zheng Heng ...... These heroes of the martyrdom knelt in front of Zhu Di one after another.
Zhu Neng was the most excited, he danced with his hands and was overjoyed.
"Your Majesty, I've arrived in Shandong, and Jinan is not far ahead! Jinan! ”
Zhu Di also smiled happily.
"That's right, it's Jinan!" Zhu Di still remembers that Tie Xuan, Sheng Yong and others guarded Jingnan at the beginning, and blocked the pace of Jingnan's army moving south.
But now, when he set off in the morning, before it got dark, he was already a stone's throw away from Jinan.
Just imagine, if there was such a fast speed, the defenders could be caught off guard and easily killed into the city.
"Ladies and gentlemen, ten years ago, did you think that there would be this day?"
Not to mention ten years ago, even a year ago, no one dared to imagine what the railway would look like. This trip, in addition to shock, is shock!
"I know that many of you feel that I am ruthless, and that I have forced you to leave your homeland and establish a vassal overseas. But have you ever thought about it, it's really my heart that is trying to harm you? ”
"Wrong! Big mistake! ”
Zhu Di hated that iron could not become steel, and he roared angrily: "Da Ming has changed, it is really different from before!" The railway is here, you have also experienced it, whether it is good or bad, you should know it, right? We need to build more railways to make it easier to travel and make commerce more prosperous. We need resources, people, ores, and markets to sell our goods...... If you are only limited to Daming, you will not be able to accomplish this feat quickly! ”
"You are still my brothers, confidants, and pillars of the country on which I have high hopes. Let you go overseas, not only for the good of the Ming Dynasty, but also so that you can enjoy wealth and prosperity with me forever. ”
Zhu Di said this, and took a deep breath, "Where to go, I hope you think clearly, don't hesitate anymore, otherwise, just like a train, you won't wait for someone who is late!" No one! ”
After speaking, Zhu Di resolutely turned around and got into the car, at this moment the water and coal have been replenished, the boiler is burning, the white steam is rising, and he is about to set off......
