"Take me into the city for a tour."

Yang Mu said with a smile, he was like a tourist who was about to enter the scenic spot, and he was very curious about everything.

Surrounded by a group of people, he stepped onto the main street of the city.

This ten-mile long street, the street is very spacious, more than ten zhang wide, there are trees and flower beds on both sides, the ground is all bluestone slabs or cement roads, very neat.

It is worth mentioning that Yang Mu keenly found that there is also a very powerful sewage and drainage system in the city, which can ensure that the city streets are clean and clean when it rains.

On both sides of the street, there are neat rows of shops, and behind them are residential houses and office offices.

Moreover, due to the use of cement, the buildings on both sides of the street are generally more than three floors, and this alone is much more luxurious than the imperial capitals of the rest of the countries.

Stepping into the palace, Yang Mu really discovered how magnificent and luxurious the place where he lived in the future.

In Yang Mu's eyes, this palace not only has the scale and heaviness of the Forbidden City in his impression, but also the spaciousness and majesty of the Western-style, compared with it, the palace where he used to live is simply weak.

In terms of layout, this new palace is similar to the old palace in Cangcheng, but the number and scale of the palaces are far exceeded.

Yang Mu did not enter the palace, but directly ascended to the high platform.

This high platform is a kind of pyramid structure, there are steps on all sides, but if you want to climb up, it is equivalent to dozens of floors, so the composition of the furnishings accounts for the majority, if you want to easily climb the high platform, in the middle of each side, there is something similar to an inclined elevator.

Of course, this is not electricity.

Instead, the principle of gears and pulleys is used to build a ladder with human and animal power.

About a cup of tea, Yang Mu led a large group of people to the high platform.

The high platform of more than 40 zhang can be said to be like a high mountain.

It can also be said that it can be a landmark of the Royal Palace.

Although, due to the very large area of the entire palace, there are three or four miles in radius, and there is a wide moat surrounding, coupled with the view of the city wall, you can still faintly see the high platform in the open space outside the palace.

"It's spectacular!"

Yang Mu stood against the railing and looked ahead.

The inside of the palace, the official offices of the outer courts, the main street in the city, and then to the various facilities outside the city, the official roads and checkpoints extending in all directions, all have an endless view.

In short, Yang Mu is very satisfied with this new capital.

From a geographical point of view, this is the center of the world, which can be attacked, retreated, defended, attacked in the north, southed, and northed, all of which are very advantageous.

Militarily speaking, a capital city with such a height and such a wide field of view is equivalent to a strong fortress, easy to defend and difficult to attack, almost eliminating the possibility of being attacked by the enemy, even if there are several times the number of troops attacking the city, it can be easily defended.

Yang Mu took a few steps forward and said lightly: "Bring the telescope." ”

Shen An realized and hurriedly handed over the binoculars.

Due to the birth of glass, telescopes have long been developed, because the production technology of lenses is in the hands of Cangguo, so it is currently only equipped in the Cangguo army, and in addition, only a few high-level officials such as Yang Mu have collections.

Due to its particularity, it is estimated that once it is circulated, the value is absolutely incalculable.

For the upper nobles and emperors, it may be just a tool.

However, its greatest use is for the military.

With this kind of thing, the army can anticipate the enemy first, greatly reduce the chance of being ambushed, and better monitor the enemy's situation.

Under the telescope, Xindu was in full view, and even the appearance of the guards on duty outside the palace could be vaguely distinguished.

The binoculars are what Yang Mu is in his hands.

Judging from the telescope, as long as the gates of this new capital are closed, then the inside and outside of the city are basically two worlds.

The defensive performance has refreshed the cognition of everyone in this world.

"Good! Good! Good! ”

After saying three good words in a row, Yang Mu slowly walked to the other end of the high platform.

It's like an observatory, and at the top, there's a special ultra-high-powered telescope that can clearly see the streets and alleys of the city.

However, it is a little bit the same as standing in a high-rise office building in my previous life and looking at the ground.

Blowing a slight cool breeze, he felt more relaxed than he had ever been.

"In that case, this high platform is called the Forget Worry Platform." Yang Mu said.

"Yes, Weichen will let people prepare to engrave the monument." Ouyeel should be on the side.

After watching it for a while, Yang Mu got off the Forget Worry Platform and rode towards the inner court.

This will be where he will live and work in the future, and he must visit it well.

Generally speaking, the inner court is not much more popular than the outside, there are already a lot of palace guards, eunuchs and palace maids are ready, some of them are internal servants transferred from Cangcheng, Yang Mu saw some old faces.

"The inner court is so big, won't the harem be able to run horses?"

Yang Mu couldn't help but exclaim, he could see clearly on the Forget Worry Terrace, in the entire palace, the area of the outer court and the inner court was about the same, and some residences for the inner servants were added to the harem, as well as a very large imperial garden, which was the largest in the entire palace.

Since there were a bunch of men behind him, Yang Mu didn't go in, but directly led a group of people out of the palace to the residential area.

From the beginning of the construction of the city, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household allowed some local aborigines to live in the city, demarcated a part of the dwellings, and gave these people to live.

Therefore, in the entire new capital, in addition to some craftsmen who have cleaned up the aftermath, it is mainly these tens of thousands of people.

Yang Mu came over to take a look and feel the atmosphere in advance.

Therefore, when they learned that Yang Mu was going to see the residential area, many people crowded into the alleys, waiting and looking forward excitedly.

First, most of them had never seen Yang Mu, the emperor of the Great Cangguo, and if it weren't for the emperor's head on the Dacang coin, they wouldn't even have a basic outline.

Second, Yang Mu personally came to Xindu to accept the completion of the city, which also means that the Cangguo Imperial Court is already preparing and is about to move the capital.

And once the capital is moved, this city becomes the new national capital, then these ordinary people can be transformed into dignified citizens of the imperial capital.
