Chapter 689: Fooling the Arab Empire
Over the years, the Arab Empire has actually been paying close attention to Datang's every move.
After all, many of their talents are directly sent to Datang for training.
The reason why their technology has developed so rapidly is because of Datang.
They have always regarded Datang as their biggest rival.
In this case, no matter how much attention they pay to Datang, it is not too much.
Of course, their skin color and appearance are very different from those of the Tang people after all.
They want to buy off the Tang people as their spies, and the difficulty is not ordinary.
Some of their information about Datang is limited to some businessmen, and there are students who were sent to study in Datang.
Ordinary news can naturally be found.
But as for some confidential information, it is not something they can inquire about.
Therefore, although the messenger sent by the Saga Alliance this time knew some of the news, they could not grasp it so thoroughly.
However, even so, the Great Food King did not really muster up the courage to attack Datang.
Because, Datang is too powerful.
is so powerful that even though the King of Shu left, he became the current King of Huaxia.
It is so powerful that even if the family leaves, they will transport a large number of their hundreds of years of family wealth overseas.
But over the years, under the various measures of the King of Shu, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty has been strong for a while.
The Great Food King felt that if they really started a war with Datang, their chances of winning would definitely be less than fifty percent.
Thinking of this, the Great Food King couldn't help but say, "What you said, this king knows everything." However, our Arab Empire and the Tang Dynasty are still good neighbors, and we are honest, so how can we go back on our word? ”
The Tang Dynasty in this era is much more powerful than the Tang Dynasty in the original historical trajectory.
And because Li Su established Huaxia City, there are now some other indigenous people in remote corners in addition to Africa.
Almost in the whole world, there is no country that does not know that there is a powerful country in the East, called Datang.
Moreover, most countries now have business dealings with Datang.
In these countries, there are countless people who can speak Chinese.
Now, almost literally, there are many people all over the world who speak Huaxia.
Even the Great Food King is no exception, and the few sentences he dragged just now are Chinese idioms.
And this time, the messenger sent by the family is also an extremely powerful character.
The family has trained countless talents.
Of course, it will not be ordinary characters who can be dispatched to carry out such a difficult task.
Ever since he entered the palace, he had been secretly observing the Great Eater's every move.
In particular, the micro-expressions on his face were the focus of his observation.
The insincere words that the Great Food King said were automatically filtered by the messenger.
After a little thought in his heart, this messenger immediately judged what the Great Food King was thinking.
After figuring this out, the envoy sent by the Family Alliance couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The entire palace of the Great Food King echoed with the unbridled laughter of the envoys of the family.
The Great Food King asked, "I don't know why the messenger is laughing?" ”
The envoy of the Family Alliance, while laughing, said: "I laugh at the king, the entire empire is already in danger and does not know it, it is really ridiculous, ridiculous, haha!" ”
"Bold! Dare to be presumptuous in the palace! ”
"Rude man, king, do you want to take this man down?"
"King, please order!"
Seeing this envoy, so presumptuous, the ministers of the Great Food Empire couldn't hold back the anger in their hearts.
And the face of the Great Food King is not very good-looking.
However, he still endured it and did not have a seizure, but looked at the messenger coldly, and then asked: "This king gives you one last chance, I hope you can tell the reason, otherwise, don't blame this king for being polite." ”
The envoy smiled slightly, and then asked calmly: "King, please imagine, why did the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty send the King of Shu to the Golden State, which is tens of thousands of miles away, to establish a Huaxia City?" ”
The Great Eater's face remained unchanged, but he did not answer the messenger's question.
As the king of a country, it is naturally inconvenient for him to answer such a question.
That's right, there are no bonuses.
But once the answer is wrong, it will only be laughed at suddenly.
It is inconvenient for the king to answer, and the ministers below will naturally have to answer this question for their king.
"It's too simple. It must be that the strength of the King of Shu is too huge and has threatened the status of the Tang Emperor, so the Tang Emperor will exile him to the Golden State, which is tens of thousands of miles away! ”
"It's not true!"
The envoy sneered, and then said in a deep voice: "Everyone, please think, in the Tang Dynasty and the Golden State, each establish a stronghold. So, is your Great Food Empire already surrounded by them? ”
Prior to this, in the Central Plains region of Datang, they all believed in the idea that the sky is round and the place is round.
And recently, a theory was thrown from the Golden State that the Earth is spherical.
And, it was confirmed.
Because from Datang, all the way to the east, you can come to the Golden State.
From the Golden State all the way to the east, you can return to Datang.
How can this fact be explained if the Earth they inhabit is not spherical?
The idea that the earth is round is now accepted by more and more people.
And the kings and ministers of the Great Food Empire, including the Great Food King and a cadre of courtiers.
I was completely shocked by the point that the messenger threw out.
Before, they had never thought about it.
Now, isn't that what it seems?
Their Arab Empire, isn't it just right that they are sandwiched between the Tang Dynasty and the Golden State?
In fact, on top of a sphere, two points can directly divide the whole ball into two halves.
If understood along these lines, any country is surrounded by them.
And this encirclement is inevitably a little bigger.
Between the Tang Dynasty and the Golden State, there is not only their Great Food Empire, but also a Europe.
It's a pity that now they, for the time being, don't think about it so much.
Because, Datang's scientific and technological level is too advanced.
Datang's strength is really terrifying.
And the Golden State, under the development of that Shu King, can it still be worse?
If at that time, they are caught between two sides, will their Arab Empire be able to withstand it?
As soon as he thought of this, the monarchs of the Arab Empire fell into a great panic.
And at this time, the messenger watched their every move.
Seeing that they were afraid, the messenger smiled slightly, and then said:
"And now, it's a period of rapid development."
"Now, it is the time when Datang is the most empty, and it is the time when the Golden State has not yet developed."
"Let's ask, once the Golden State swallows all the power of the family, how far will their strength grow at that time?"
"Once Datang removes all the influence of the family, it will surely enter a period of rapid development."
"They're going to grow into two superempires in no time."
"And you, sandwiched between these two super-empires."
"Even if they say that they love peace and will never do anything to you, will you believe it?"
Hearing the envoy's words, many ministers of the Arab Empire couldn't help but shake their heads collectively.
Even if the Tang Emperor and the King of Shu really don't have the intention of fighting for hegemony.
But what about the people around them?
What about their descendants?
With such a strong strength, how can it not rise to the heart of hegemony?
So, their Arab Empire, it's really dangerous!
"That's why I said that this is the best time to attack Datang."
"Now, because of the departure of the King of Shu and the family, Datang is in the emptiest time."
"And the King of Shu, in the Golden State, needs to deal with the relationship with the aborigines, and for a while, he can't spare his hands."
"Now attacking Datang, our family can take the opportunity to create civil strife, so that Datang will be difficult to take care of."
"After we take Datang, we want the eastern part of Datang. and other places in the Western Regions, all of which will be given to you. ”
The land of the Western Regions is a land of bitter cold.
And if we really want to attack Datang, we must be the main force.
We have bothered to attack the Tang Dynasty, your family, just want to empty gloves and white wolves?
But that's okay.
Now and you are proud.
After the Tang Dynasty is really attacked, then the theory will be done.
Because both sides have a common enemy, the next two sides have an extremely harmonious exchange.
Soon, an agreement was reached.
By the Arab Empire, it launched an attack on the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty.
The family, on the other hand, waited for their war to start and create civil strife and expand the war, making it difficult for the Tang Dynasty to take care of.
……
At this time, in Huaxia City, Di Renjie looked at the computer in front of him and laughed loudly.
The other R&D members hugged each other tightly, and they were so excited that they couldn't help themselves.
After nearly a year of research and development -
Well, in fact, the main framework, as well as the settings of various functions inside, and even how to connect, how to debug, the city lord Li Su, gave them clear hints.
In this case, it still took them almost a year to make the window operating system.
No way, after all, they had never been exposed to such advanced programming before.
Even, even some of the logical relationships in it are not clear.
Many questions come by asking the city lord.
Second, in the process of programming, they are also growing rapidly.
At the beginning, they had to trouble the city lord Li Su every once in a while.
And Li Su is tireless, as long as there is a problem, he will take the initiative to help them solve it.
But the problem is that there are so many problems, and Li Su can't help them.
After all, Li Su's programming level is actually not very good.
After all, in his previous life, his main job was writing, not a programmer.
If it's something else, you can also ask the system.
But the system can't give him a clear answer to this question.
Well, mainly because the programming programs of this era are different from those of later generations.
Many of the commands in it have been changed to be spelled in Hanyu Pinyin.
There are also some things that have been changed.
And the answer given by the system is based on which orders are given by later generations.
The two are not compatible.
This made Li Su, who was accustomed to the powerful power of the system, very unaccustomed.
Of course, Li Su is also suspicious, and it is estimated that the system is deliberately passive and sabotage.
In the past few years, with the development of faster and faster.
The system is getting lazier and lazier, and many things are not supporting him.
Therefore, when encountering the questions they raised, Li Su also needed to ponder for a long time.
And then learn from the programming ideas of later generations to give them the right answer.
Later, the programmers asked fewer and fewer questions.
Sometimes, I don't come to my door for many days.
Finally, after countless tests, it is now finally determined that this set of operating systems has been successfully completed.
Now, their computers have changed a lot.
A computer is a combination of hardware and software.
While the software is being developed, the hardware is not idle.
Now, they have developed integrated circuits on a small and medium-scale scale.
The chassis also has various parts inside, and the volume is getting smaller and smaller, and the performance is getting higher and higher.
And, of course, they have supercomputers in their labs.
The size of that computer is still very large.
And the ability of that computer to run is very powerful.
It is currently sufficient for all research in the entire laboratory.
Now, since the Windows operating system, it's very easy to operate.
Now there is no need for a dedicated entry person to enter complex commands.
After just a few days of study, you can learn to use a computer.
Open the software they need, and you can easily complete their various needs.
Moreover, now computers can not only batch process files, but also run several programs at the same time, each without delay.
I have to say that this function is really powerful.
And it is foreseeable that because of the rapid development of computers, it is bound to drive the scientific research achievements of the entire scientific research department, which will develop rapidly.
And, under the orders of Li Su, now the Ministry of Scientific Research is preparing to launch a civilian version of the computer.
And the civilian version of the computer, in fact, is not fundamentally different from the supercomputer in their lab.
A supercomputer is nothing more than a combination of dozens of computers connected in parallel to bring their functions together.
And Li Su's order was strongly resisted by Di Renjie, and even refused to carry it out.
The reason is naturally that Di Renjie is reluctant.
This computer, but they worked hard to develop it.
Now it has just been developed, and it has been launched so quickly for civilian use?
In this way, wouldn't other countries be able to use computers?
When the time comes, won't they even have the slightest advantage?
People are selfish.
The ass determines the mind.
Not to mention the launch of a civilian version.
Even the scientific research department on Datang's side, Di Renjie didn't want to give them to them.
And Li Su's thoughts are completely different from Di Renjie's.
Li Su's idea is that he is willing to make progress together.
If Huaxia City cherishes itself, maybe this computer secret cannot be made in other countries for decades.
The gap in technology is so great that it is almost impossible to close it in time.
But in this case, the development of Huaxia City is fast, but is there any benefit to Huaxia City?
Is it just to keep them ahead?
However, even if the civilian version of the computer is launched now, Huaxia City can maintain its leading edge in the same way!
Moreover, the introduction of computers can make the scientific and technological level of all countries improve rapidly.
The advent of computers can improve more than just computing speed.
The improvement of other countries, in turn, can further drive the improvement of Huaxia City.
In Li Su's eyes, aren't the talents of other countries the talents of my Huaxia City?
Aren't other countries talent incubation bases?
And the upgrading of computers, which country can compare to Huaxia City?
Of course, core technologies such as supercomputers cannot be leaked casually.
Li Su will not be generous to the point that all the core technologies are shared.
You just need to maintain a certain level of lead, which is enough.
Because, both hardware and software conditions, Huaxia City is far ahead of other countries and regions.
In this case, what country and region's scientific and technological development can surpass Huaxia City?
Under Li Su's persuasion, Di Renjie finally opened up and agreed to produce computers.
And now, Di Renjie and them are doing the final test.
The first batch of computers, in fact, have already been produced.
What is missing now is software.
You only need to install the Windows 1 operating system on the computer, and after testing, then this batch of computers can be directly listed.
However, before going public, Li Su decided to add some small games to the computer.
In fact, this first batch of computers is said to be for civilian use, but in fact, the most important thing is to use it for scientific research.
After all, for ordinary people, what is the use of them buying a computer to bring to their homes?
It's really useless!
Now there is no Internet, in addition to being able to put discs, what else can people use it for at home?
Is it used to calculate wages?
If you really want to calculate wages, you can use a calculator, where can I use a computer?
Computers are definitely a good thing, and it is foreseeable that the application of computers will become more and more extensive.
But at least in the short term, sales will certainly not be high.
Therefore, now Li Su urgently needs a batch of software.
For example, some game software, and some sound and picture processing software.
It can also be used to produce a batch of printers.
I believe that the emergence of printers will be able to subvert the traditional printing industry.
Sound and picture video processing software can change some of the landscape of the film and television industry.
As for the civilian version, it can only be maintained with some single-player games for the time being.
And now, Li Su is making these software.
Uh, well, in fact, of course, he didn't make it himself.
Instead, use the system to synthesize.
After these software are combined, they can be installed on the computer.
The stand-alone version of the computer game is made into a CD, and when the time comes, the CD can be sold to the outside world.
At the same time, printers are being made.
The principle of the printer is actually not complicated.
But some of the parts inside are also quite fine.
And now it's being developed from scratch.
If it weren't for Li Su's help, I'm afraid it would take a while to make it.
And now, Li Su is bent on promoting the computer, so he is directly involved in the R&D team.
……
Finally, the first computers came out.
Looking at this batch of brand-new computers, Li Su's face showed a look of remembrance.
These computers, the screen is still very old, the kind of big-bellied screen.
The host is also very bulky.
Seeing these computers, Li Su couldn't help but think of the era of 386 and 486 in which computers were still there.
But for this era, it's completely ahead of its time.
Li Su decided to focus on the promotion of computers in Datang.
The prosperity of Huaxia City is not even much weaker than that of Yizhou New City and Chang'an City.
But here in Huaxia City, there are still too few rich people after all.
Moreover, the concept of consumption, for the time being, has not yet been cultivated.
There are not as many local tyrants as Datang.
In addition, the geography and population of Huaxia City are very restrictive.
The government departments in Huaxia City will naturally distribute computers.
For the rest of the people, I'm afraid not many people can use computers.
Even if you use it, you may not buy it.
Of course, it's not that it doesn't sell in Huaxia City.
It's just that when it comes to publicity, the publicity expenses spent on Datang are too much more than Huaxia City.
The sales situation in the place of origin is not valued by Li Su.
His main sales place is focused on Datang.
Soon, Li Su ordered people to load all the computers, printers, and CDs on the ship.
And Li Su also followed the big ship and returned to Datang together.
Originally, Li Su had promised the Queen Mother that he would go back to visit her every year.
But this time, the delay in Eastern Rome was almost a year.
After I came back, I was busy with the computer operating system.
This delay is more than a year has passed.
In Li Su's heart, he was actually very guilty.
The Queen Mother is old, gray-haired, and her body is not as good as before, so I am afraid that she will not have a few years to live.
Even if he goes back once a year, how many eyes can he still look at the Queen Mother?
The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the child wants to raise but does not wait.
This time when he returned to Datang, Li Su was ready to stay for a while.
After more than a month of sea travel, Li Su once again set foot on the land of Datang.
After boarding the Weihaiwei wharf, Li Su instructed people to carefully carry these computers.
Then disperse to all parts of Datang.
After the instructions were in place, Li Su stepped on the train and went straight to Chang'an City.
After arriving in Chang'an City, Li Su went straight to the palace.
As early as when Li Su arrived at Weihaiwei Wharf, there was already a phone call to inform the palace.
When Li Su came to the inner palace, he saw the white-haired queen mother, leaning against the door and looking.
At that moment, Li Su unconsciously burst into tears.
"Son, is that you?"
The Queen Mother is older, her eyes are spent, and she can't see people clearly.
Seeing Li Su from afar, the shadow felt familiar, but he didn't dare to confirm it.
Li Su whimpered: "Queen Mother, it's me, I'm Su'er!" ”
Li Su walked a few steps quickly, stepped forward and grabbed the queen mother's hand tightly.
