"Hahahaha!" Li Er smiled like a vulture with carrion in his mouth! had already stopped laughing, but after seeing Yun Hao, he laughed again. After so many years, there are not many times when Yun Hao can be deflated. Take the opportunity to make a good joke about this victorious general!

"There is a virtuous son in the family! Haotian still favors my Li family! Ha ha! Li Er laughed, and put on a disgusting look of having a son and everything.

"Tell me! How did you get so crowded by a bunch of little guys that you had to come to war, the last time I went to your house to invite you. You didn't even agree, if you knew it would work, you would have called a bunch of rabbit cubs to go. Li Er's two arms were on the imperial book case, and he looked at Yun Hao standing under the Dan Fan with great interest.

Yun Hao pouted, your son is a little rabbit cub. This seems to be genetically bad for him, but I can't say it explicitly. Those who dare to speak heartily generally die miserably. Especially this kind of happy words questioning the royal bloodline, the death is even more miserable!

"Zhang Liang is dead, and as a general, he still has posthumous mourning. His family has a lot of money, and he doesn't have to worry about his wife and children having nothing to eat. But those 20,000 soldiers died unjustly! Being crucified alive in the desert Gobi is a slap in the face of my Datang. If you don't go, you can't do it! This time, the Persians must be beaten. Let them not dare to mess with me until Datang! Yun Hao nodded helplessly, pinching his nose and acknowledging Li Er's schadenfreude.

"Yes! The soldiers died heroically, but unfortunately the battlefield is the battlefield. The defeated generals do not have much compensation, and this is an eternal rule that cannot be changed. After a few years, the country has great news. I will take the opportunity of the whole world to celebrate together, and deliberately comfort the orphans of these soldiers. But this time, the expedition to the Western Regions will be extremely dangerous. You need to be prepared! ”

Li Er is Li Er, and he can quickly move from the status of a ridiculer. Quickly transform into an emperor! The Persians slapped Li Eryi hard, and now it's time to slap back. Retribution is the basic characteristic of Li Er's life and work!

"Your Majesty wants to win quickly, it is impossible, the Western Regions first want to appease. Then we can effectively occupy it, if we are going to trouble the Persians. It is also necessary to establish several support points in the Western Regions and rely on these support points. to be able to march into Persia!

This is also something that can't be helped, the Western Regions are too big. Our Datang army is not afraid of fighting, but is afraid that the supply of grain and logistics materials will not be available. To do this, we need to lay more railways where they can. I also need bigger airships to join the ranks of transport. For this reason, at least 50,000 Tang troops were needed under the command of the minister. And you need the full cooperation of the railway department! ”

"Exactly! Permit! Permit! I'm all right, as long as you fight this battle well. So many soldiers died tragically, this is a humiliation that I have never had since the founding of the Tang Dynasty! As long as you can fight this face back, I will allow you to do whatever you want! Li Eryi said three words in a row.

Li Er was like a tiger patrolling his territory, and suddenly he smelled the scent of another lion. The lion was obviously unfriendly, and came up and bit his jackal to death. Although the lion has also lost some, the tiger believes that he is the master of the planet. On the same planet, two juggernauts will never be allowed to exist.

Li Er and the Caliph identified each other as invaders at the same time. Now, they're about to have a fierce fight.

After getting Li Er's promise, Yun Hao turned around and left without saying a word. It is very rare for an emperor to say such things. Only the person who trusts him the most, Li Er would say such a thing.

It is rare for an emperor to trust a person, especially someone like Li Er.

Out of Li Er's palace, Yun Hao came to the Jiaodong Palace. This time, what he needed most was not soldiers, but Li Daoyan. The railroad tracks had been laid three hundred miles beyond the Yumen Pass, and the trains could effectively supply the garrison there. Yun Hao felt that he should be allowed to extend a little further, it was unrealistic to cross the desert. However, it is necessary to extend as much as possible, and the train stretches every mile. Yun Hao's logistical supply line is one mile less!

"Brother Hao, this is something that can't be helped. It is impossible for the railway to cross Lop Nur, as you should know. Listening to Yun Hao's words, Li Daoyan yelled like a cat whose tail had only been stepped on.

"What about Lop Nur? You see......! Yun Hao still didn't give up, and wanted to continue to fool this old friend.

"Pull down! It's useless what you say, my people can only build railways as far as Lop Nur. I will not accompany you any further, I said Brother Hao. You take a good look at the map, and after Lop Nur is all bearded territory. Even if it's repaired, I don't have any ruts at all when people want to tear down the railroad in the middle of the night. How many centaurs do you have to protect the railroad along the way?

If you really use all the army along the railway, don't even think about it without an army of 100,000. 100,000 troops, Your Majesty will give you so many soldiers? Look at the Tang Dynasty, only His Majesty's most trusted general can lead an army of 50,000. I estimate that the army that Your Majesty gave you is the same number. "I have to say that Li Daoyan is very knowledgeable.

When it comes to understanding Li Er, except for the roundworms in Li Er's stomach, I'm afraid there is only him.

"Brother Hao, you know. There is no way to build a railway in the desert, and today you laid it. Maybe tomorrow there will be a sandstorm and bury it, can you say that you can have people living in the whole desert and dig sand for the railway? This can't be done!

If you want to do it, it is recommended that you build a city in Lop Nur. As long as the train is connected, I will find a way to get you as many supplies as you want. As for how you got to the Western Regions, I suggest you use an airship. With your skills, you won't even be able to get an airship. ”

"I also know that it will be too difficult to lay a railway in the Western Regions, but I am worried about relying entirely on airships. The sunny day is not bad, but it is difficult to escape if you encounter a sandstorm airship. The ghost weather in the Western Regions, God knows when there will be a sandstorm. ”

"Sandstorms don't work with camels, and you can't use railroads anyway. Even trains can hardly resist the power of sandstorms. ”

What Li Daoyan said is true, a large sandstorm can blow even a train over. Yun Hao had heard of it, but now there was nothing he could do. The place in the Western Regions was so poor that it was very difficult to feed the enemy if it wanted to. If the supplies can't keep up, let alone fighting, it will be difficult to even survive.

In fact, Yun Hao's most desired way of fighting. That is to let the Datang carry countless marines. Constantly harassing the Persian coast will not only make the Persians' wounds bleed. It is also because the logistics supply is very convenient, and only you can fight others, and no one else will fight yourself. Unless the caliph completely abandons maritime trade, he will only be beaten passively.

But there was no way, Zhang Liang was killed in the Western Regions. If Datang wants revenge, it can only take revenge in the Western Regions. Since you have failed in front of the Hu people, you must win a real battle in front of the Hu people. Otherwise, those Hu people will think that the Tang Dynasty has declined. Extend your claws to the territory of Datang. There are only more than 30,000 soldiers left in the military states of Anxi and Beiting.

Once more than 5 million beards are not afraid of Datang, those more than 30,000 people will be very dangerous. It is very likely that Datang will lose the Western Regions forever, just like in history.

"You don't need to build a city, Loulan is fine. They moved their people out and found a random place to settle them. The entire Loulan City will become a military city. In the Western Regions, where crises are everywhere, this is the only way to ensure the safety of Lop Nur! ”

Li Daoyan has a very detailed map of the Western Regions at home, and how can he do it without a map for the railway. In fact, Li Daoyan's men have already measured almost all of the Tang Dynasty's territory. Yun Hao's purpose for coming this time was actually to copy a copy of these maps.

"Loulan? Well, on the edge of the Peacock River. The place is good, that's your future. It has nothing to do with me, even if you kill them all, it has nothing to do with me. If you ask me to build the railway to Loulan, then build it to Loulan. I can still do this. ”

"Alright! I will use Loulan as a base, and I will transport the rest of the journey by airship. I can only risk the loss of airships and supplies, and I have to go to the academy to have a look. Let's see if we can make a bigger airship! ”

"Brother Hao! You said the oil spring business in the Western Regions, hehe......! Li Daoyan rubbed his hands, as soon as he wanted to take advantage of this goods, he would be virtuous.

Where birds don't poop in the Western Regions, they lack everything. However, there are many oil springs, and many oil springs are attached to the surface. Just dig a little bit and fill it in a jar for money. Absolutely a lucrative deal!

"The refinery has 20% of yours, don't look at me, I'm only 30%. The remaining forty percent is His Majesty's, and the last one percent is the cost. Your subordinates have to spend a little money, don't they! Yun Hao did not hesitate to give Li Daoyan two percent. Brother! There are benefits that can be done without taking care of them!

"Let's just say that your brother Hao is an interesting person, you can rest assured that within a month, the railway will be paved to Loulan. As for the migration ...... Loulan City! ”

"I'll do it!" As soon as Yun Hao said this, Li Daoyan knew that the Loulan people were finished. What good things can the GIs do to drive out, kill them, and count on them to demolish and relocate in a civilized manner...... Let's wait for the next life!

No one cares about the life and death of the people of Loulan, and there will be a huge oil refinery in Loulan City. There will also be a large airship landing field, and the airship will use more fuel. Transported from the Chang'an Oil Refinery to the Western Regions, Yun Hao will go crazy.

If the size of the refinery is large enough, in addition to supporting the military quarters of the Great Army. The train would transport a truckload of kerosene, which was not much needed by the army, to Chang'an. Anyway, there is nothing to pack in that place in the Western Regions except sand, so I will ship this on the return trip. For this reason, Li Daoyan plans to make a lot of iron buckets.

Even the slag after oil refining is planned to be brought back, and now Datang is learning from Lintong to build roads. The stone road should be paved with asphalt and small stones, so that the wheels will be moderately soft and hard when driving on it. Unlike the bare stone road, people sitting in it are not much different from shaking the Lantern Festival.

After discussing with Li Daoyan for a long time, Yun Haoyou went to the academy. After repeatedly begging the fisherman to drum it out, a bigger airship. Yun Hao went home on horseback, and now it's afternoon since he went out in the morning, and he hasn't even mixed up his meal. If this continues, Yun Hao feels that he will die before he can get out of school.

The family did not stop, and many former subordinates came. Don't say anything, push your own kid in front of Yun Hao, bow down! The ritual is somewhat similar to underworld initiation!

They are all former subordinates, and many of them are still disabled. Yun Hao knew that they were not having a good time, and the Yun family would pack them a piece of food during the New Year. Sometimes it's a few bags of flour, sometimes it's a big jar of oil. Sometimes, it's half a fat two-inch thick pork. Although it is not precious, it can make everyone have a good year and at least make a dumpling.

Look at the old guy with tears and look at the gifts brought in. Home-grown chickens, and some are wrapped with a piece of pig's head. Zuo Wuwei's old Cao was carrying two rabbits. Lao Huang of the water army, dragging two geese.

They are all old subordinates and know their tempers.

There's nothing to say, gifts, but money. Looking at it like this, it was to bring Yun Hao all the chickens that lay eggs at home. Nothing is as important as having a good future for a son!

Military exploits that the nobles do not value are good things in their eyes. As long as you make meritorious contributions to the country's conquest, after you come back, whether you are an errand soldier in the yamen or a fast catcher. That's all people who eat imperial food! The feats fought in the knives and guns, even the eldest lord has to look at it. Who made the family fight for their lives!

As soon as the crack in the door opened, it became a luxury to try to collect it. The meal was not eaten, but there were hundreds of half-year-old children under the porch. There were people from twenty to fifteen or sixteen years old, and there were even younger ones, but Yun Hao didn't want them. I led my troops to fight, not to go to the Western Regions to hold an armed parade.

Let people go to Sheng Yanshi, take these children away, and then register them. These little guys have to train for at least three months in Zuo Wuwei before they can go on the expedition. Yun Hao didn't plan to take a group of baby soldiers to the Western Regions to find death, and his lineage Zuo Wuwei was a must. Although they are not very suitable for desert combat either!

After arranging for the old subordinates to eat, Yun Hao was already so hungry that his legs and stomach were trembling.

Hurry back to the back house and shout loudly to eat noodles. An old bowl with a large human head is poured with a thick layer of snails. At this time, it tastes like no other!

"Have you promised Your Majesty to go to the Western Regions?" Zhang Miaoke was a little unhappy, and the Yun family didn't want to make progress now. The current family business, as long as it does not rebel, is not a problem at all in the last three, five or seven generations. There's no need to go to the desert to make a feat of merit!

Zhang Liang is so powerful, he didn't die in the Western Regions. I heard that even the head was cut off and used as a night pot! The head of the Yun family, just guard the family business and eat and wait for death.

"No problem! This time the Persians went too far, and I wanted to teach a lesson. Let them know how Datang teaches others to be in awe. The words were imposing, and Zhang Miaoke could only leave helplessly. It seems that this time it's not forced by everyone, it's the husband himself who likes to go.

A large bowl of noodles is under the stomach, and the bowl has just been placed on the ground. I saw Yun Dabao's eyes full of hope!
