Chapter 664: A Journey of a Thousand Miles Begins with a Single Step

Kabul city.

Li Duan presided over an examination, and he selected a group of students who were interested in Gewuxue from among the students sent from Chang'an, and conducted the examination, from which 12 students with excellent grades were selected.

After finishing this matter, Li Duan took them to see Li You.

Li You met them in his small parlor.

Of the 12 students, the youngest was 16 years old, and the oldest was 20 years old.

Now, they finally meet their idols, a little excited and a little nervous.

Li You first asked them to make tea, and then asked them about their origins one by one, dispelling their nervousness.

Then, Li You began to get to the point.

Li You asked: "Everyone is familiar with thunder and lightning, which of you can talk about its principle?" ”

One of the students said, "Your Highness, I have heard that you said that lightning is a kind of power, and thunder is formed by lightning striking the air. Now the lightning rods on the tall buildings in Chang'an City were invented by you. ”

Li You saw that this student was very delicate, and he was still a little blushing when he spoke, and he was as quiet as a big girl. Through the conversation just now, Li You has memorized his name, Wang Jing.

Li You asked, "Wang Jing, lightning is a great power, have you ever thought about using this power to serve others?" ”

Wang Jing said: "Your Highness, the minister really thought about it, and the minister thought how convenient it would be if he could use the power of lightning to pull carts and boats to do a lot of things that need to be done with manpower."

However, the minister really couldn't think of how to use the lightning. ”

Li You asked the other students again, "Have you thought about this question?" ”

The students answered politely one by one, and their thoughts were similar to Wang Jing's.

Li You said: "Now I can tell you that the thing that forms lightning, which we call electricity, can be used. Once humans are able to harness electricity, it will be able to change the lives of the entire human race.

From today onwards, you will become the first batch of students in Datang and even in the whole world to learn this advanced knowledge. ”

The students were shocked, this kind of unbelievable knowledge not only exists, but they can also learn it in a real way, which is simply unimaginable, and everyone has a little bit of what Li You said next, which makes them even more excited.

Li You said: "From today onwards, I will personally teach you this knowledge. ”

The students are all excited, what an honor it is to be able to become the descendant disciple of His Royal Highness King Qi?

Li Duan was also interested in the content of this magical subject, and he said, "Your Highness, the minister also wants to learn this knowledge. ”

Li You smiled: "As long as you arrange it at work, come and listen to it when you have time." ”

He walked up to the blackboard and said, "Let me first introduce you to the subjects you will study in the future." ”

Li You wrote on the blackboard "Introduction to the Principles of Electricity", "Introduction to the Principles of Electricity", "Principles of Electrical Engineering", "Battery Manufacturing", "Principles of Radio" and "Morse Code and Communication".

He said: "The first step, I will lead you to create a real tailwind, and the news of Kabul can reach Chang'an City in a matter of moments." ”

Subsequently, Li You appointed Li Duan as the head of the radio communication research group and Wang Jing as the head of the study class. The study class lives in the Governor's Palace, ready to attend classes whenever Li You has free time.

The development of a radio station is an extremely complicated matter, and it is necessary not only to understand the theories of relevant aspects, but also to have the technology to manufacture the corresponding equipment.

However, as the saying goes, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. From today, Datang has taken the first step on the road to wireless communication.

Wang Xuance and others came back from *** Fort, and they came with them, as well as Latif, the eldest son of the Darobitu Grand Chief of the Feituo Dynasty.

Latif was Abu Hassan's son-in-law, and he visited Li You, accompanied by Abu Hassan and his son and daughter. Wang Xuance attended the meeting.

Latif was a rough red-faced man, illiterate, bold but shrewd. Before coming to meet Li You, he already had a full understanding of Li You through Abhassan and others and Wang Xuance.

He first introduced Li You to the situation of the Feituo Dynasty.

The royal family of the Feituo Dynasty was Aryan, and they relied on the power of the Tianzhu Kingdom, and they were extremely extravagant, expropriating and expropriating, brutally oppressing the original indigenous people, and the domestic contradictions were very acute.

The royal family of the Feituo dynasty currently had a central army of 20,000 Aryans and a local army of 40,000 natives.

Latif said: "Your Royal Highness King Qi, my father has long wanted to overthrow those Aryans, and he has talked to the Persians before, wanting to use the power of Persia to achieve this goal. However, now that the Persians were too busy to take care of themselves, the matter was put down. ”

Abu Hassan said: "Your Royal Highness the King of Qi, the minister has already negotiated with the foreign minister's in-laws, as long as you can help them drive out the Aryans, they are willing to become vassals of the Tang Dynasty." ”

Li You said: "This matter is easy to handle, the Tianzhu Kingdom seems to be strong, but they are currently in a period of relative weakness. ”

Tianzhu was the first empire in the history of India, with an area of 3 million square kilometers and a population of 11 million people at its peak.

Tianzhu has a history of hundreds of years, and has experienced the Mauryan Dynasty and the Gupta Dynasty.

The Gupta dynasty was severely damaged by the Sada (White Huns) who invaded India from Central Asia. The Gaza were later assimilated into Indian society, but their activities contributed to the dissolution of the empire. Many local princes and nationalities opposed the central power of the Gupta dynasty, and the empire was on the verge of collapse.

Li You talked eloquently, introducing the current political, economic, and military situation of the Gupta Dynasty like a few treasures, which made everyone secretly call it strange.

In fact, people who are familiar with Li You have long been accustomed to his magic.

But Wang Xuance didn't understand, he was the main person in charge of the Northwest Frontier Affairs Bureau, he knew very little about the situation in Tianzhu Kingdom, and he didn't report it to Li You, he really didn't understand how His Royal Highness King Qi knew about this.

Before Latif came to see Li You again, he had already heard of the magic of this Tang Dynasty prince, and when he saw it today, it was indeed the case. As a result, he has more confidence in Li You.

He said, "Your Royal Highness King Qi, what do you think of my father's proposal?" ”

Li You groaned and did not speak.

Later, he said: "Let's talk about it here today, there are some things we still need to discuss." ”

Why didn't Lee woo accede to Latif's request? I want to chat with more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
