Chapter 411: The Sprout of Industry

Today is a good day, the sky is light and the wind is light, the breeze is warm and the sun is not impatient. The glimmer of the morning light sprinkled over the entire imperial city, faintly as gilded.

It's just that if you look down at the imperial city, it is all desolate.

The coup d'état, which lasted for half a month, ended, and it is the people of the royal family who are still standing in the imperial city. Under the leadership of Cheng Huailiang and Xue Rengui, all the 30,000 elites in the imperial city of the Su I family were defeated.

When it comes to dealing with the enemy, the eldest brother of the mountain, Wang is more ruthless than Cheng Huailiang. He has become crazy, and he directly lit the sky lantern for the Su family. And among them is his own brother Tamura, but this guy still enjoys it.

Today's imperial city is full of charred soldiers, one by one, like black carbon, curled up on the ground into various heart-rending shapes. Not only the elite of the Su I family, but even the members of the royal family were killed and injured.

The reason why this is the case is because Cheng Huailiang and Xue Rengui are not friends or enemies. For them, the war was extremely simple, just hold the gates and start pouring the fire oil.

Compared to fighting on the plains, the power of fire oil and gunpowder in this small imperial city was brought into full play. Coupled with the undefended support of the big brother Wang on the back of the mountain, the Tang army is still in a no-man's land.

Compared with the imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty, the imperial city of the Wa Kingdom is simply a little out of the stream. There are no pavilions and pavilions, and there are no eaves covered bridges, in the eyes of Cheng Huailiang, who is accustomed to seeing the Tang Palace, everything here is so unpopular.

There were only more than 600,000 people in total, including about 80,000 soldiers, but in this turmoil, the Japanese country directly lost more than 50,000 people. In other words, today's Wa country is exhausted, and it is impossible to turn over without ten or eight years.

And at this time, the massacre in the imperial city was still continuing, and the eldest brother of the mountain, the king, was determined to eradicate the entire Su I family, so this kind of loss was still increasing.

He was willing to do this, Cheng Huailiang was naturally very happy, and now the entire imperial city seemed to be under the control of the big brother king of the mountain, but in fact, as long as they were willing, they could capture the imperial city at any time.

It's just that before the follow-up team arrives, Cheng Huailiang and others will not do it. What they have to do now is to continue to support the big brother king of Shanbei and let him continue to brutalize the Su I family.

Datang's third warship will arrive soon, and the fourth warship in Datang Academy has also been built. Although it is not clear what the situation of the Wa State is now, Qin Ze still continues to increase the gunpowder reserves of warships. At the same time, it also began to increase the number of people on the warships, as long as the Japanese state was taken, the follow-up army of the Tang Dynasty would arrive immediately.

As long as the Wa kingdom can be taken this time, then an encirclement of Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla can be formed. In this way, it will be easier for the Tang Dynasty to capture Baekje or Goguryeo in the future.

And if this point is removed, the attraction of the Wa State to Qin Ze will be too thin, after all, the resources that the Wa State can develop in the land of projectiles are too few.

Compared with the Wa country Tuyuhun is not bad, there are some large grasslands here, and its animal husbandry is also extremely developed.

The Tuyuhun people are good at raising horses, and there are many horses, cattle, sheep and camels in the territory. For Datang, which now lacks cattle, it is extremely important.

It is precisely because of this that the Tang Dynasty's determination to capture Tuyuhun is obviously much stronger than that of the Wa State.

Therefore, under the onslaught of the Tang Sixth Route Army, Tuyuhun was finally defeated. Fu Yun's son Fu Shun led the whole country to surrender to the Tang army, and Fu Yun also hanged himself.

In this battle, the Tang Dynasty harvested a total of 200,000 miscellaneous animals, of which 50,000 were cultivated cattle. This can be said to be a solution to Datang's urgent need.

If Li Er wants to vigorously develop agriculture, he must cultivate a large number of cattle, which is a link that cannot be escaped. And Tuyuhun can play such a role very well, once there is a steady stream of ploughing cattle sent back to Datang, coupled with the seeds recently researched by Datang Academy, it will definitely be able to double Datang's grain.

Tuyuhun was captured, and the Taiyuan Chamber of Commerce began to march towards Tuyuhun according to Qin Ze's previous plan. As a Datang businessman, the Taiyuan Chamber of Commerce has become more and more huge. Because for Li Er, the biggest benefit of the Taiyuan Chamber of Commerce is that it can continue to open up business routes for Datang. In the case of the emergence of cement now, as long as the Taiyuan Chamber of Commerce is given a year, a spacious cement avenue will definitely lead directly to Datang.

In this way, whether it is the Tang Dynasty sending troops to Tuyuhun or collecting livestock from Tuyuhun, it is extremely convenient.

In addition to the Taiyuan Chamber of Commerce, the people of the family also began to march towards Tuyuhun. For them, Chang'an is no longer suitable for development.

As the reputation of Datang Academy in Chang'an became more and more resounding, these families also understood Li Er's thoughts.

If it was in the past, the people would still talk about the struggle between Qin Ze and the family, but now no one will mention this matter anymore.

Because Qin Ze did a big thing, that is, he opened the library of Datang Academy for free. Regardless of whether they are students of Datang Academy or not, they can freely enter and exit the library pavilion.

And in order to further increase the attraction of scholars, all students who come to study at Datang College will be given a set of books.

When this policy came out, the status of Datang College obviously rose to a very high level.

No one knew the value of books better than the scholars, and no one knew the attraction of Qin Ze's move better than them. In this case, who else can ignore the existence of Datang Academy.

And the family also understood what Li Er was going to do now, so they also developed towards Turkic and Tuyuhun one after another. In their opinion, it will take some time for Li Er to shake the foundation of the family. And if they can preemptively occupy these places, then the Maison will still exist.

This is a process of taking what each needs from each other, and Qin Ze has always ignored these. After all, these are the tasks of Fang Xuanling's people, and Qin Ze's task is to make Datang stronger.

After two years of cultivation by Li You, the new seeds finally met Qin Ze's requirements. It's just that because the quantity is too small, it can only be planted in Jingyang County first.

And the task that Qin Ze now gave Li You was to continue cultivating other seeds. By the way, he also began to delve into hybrid technology to increase the yield of crops as much as possible.

Agriculture is the foundation of everything, and if Qin Ze wants to make Datang strong, he must do everything possible to increase Datang's grain reserves.

Only when there is more food can the army of the Tang Dynasty conquer the Quartet, and the merchants of the Tang Dynasty will continue to come and go. If the common people can't even eat, how do you let them support Li Er's troops and how to support business development?

And Jingyang County is a pioneer in this regard, and now this kind of city is constantly expanding, and a new city is developing.

Now responsible for the construction of Chen Qiu, which is cultivated by Wang Daoren, is more bold than Wang Daoren, and its own ability is enough to support the construction of Jingyang County. As for Wang Daoren, he followed the Taiyuan Chamber of Commerce to Suzhou.

Jingyang County is just a small city, and Suzhou is Wang Daoren's world. Qin Ze gave him three years, and in three years he wanted to see a new city emerge. This is a huge project, but Qin Ze believes that with the support of the Taiyuan Chamber of Commerce and Li Er, these are not problems.

What Qin Ze has to do now is to strive for Datang Academy to act as a medium for all Datang's activities, a medium that can realize Datang's dreams.

Everyone has dreams, Li Tai's dream is very simple, he is now completely caught in the pie painted by Qin Ze. After tinkering with movable type printing and a large number of tools, Li Tai finally began to feel empty.

What he does every day now is to ride a bicycle he made, constantly swaying around Qin Ze.

"Qingfinch, I said it, don't disturb me when I bare in the sun." Qin Ze impatiently grabbed an orange from the table and smashed it towards Li Tai.

As far as he made this bike, it looks like it's that good thing. But compared with the later generations, it is still too bad, at least the bicycles of later generations will not ride everywhere.

But Li Tai is very happy about this thing, after all, this thing has now become the new upstart of Chang'an. Countless sons of families dream of having a bicycle of their own.

So now walking on Suzaku Street, Qin Ze can see people riding bicycles through from time to time.

But the crux of the matter is that this thing is a bit shoddy at all. But Li Tai is a passable character, and after he drummed out the bicycle, he shook his hand and ignored it.

"Don't dangle in front of me, I'll teach you the rest when you've made this thing stop making a mess." Qin Ze really couldn't stand Li Tai's stalking appearance.

"That's not good, this thing is only like this because the craftsmen's level is not enough. Just give them a little time, and they will definitely be able to make something better. And what I want now is something else. Li Tai jumped out of the car as he spoke, then came to Qin Ze's side, grabbed an orange and ate it.

"No, there's something wrong with your current knowledge. If I had to tell you everything, I could have done all these things, but what else do I need you to do? Qin Ze said with a sigh.

Qin Ze has always wanted to make the development of Datang follow gradually, so before agriculture develops, Qin Ze will not grow the Taiyuan Chamber of Commerce at all.

And now that Li Tai is out of touch, maybe he hasn't realized it yet, but Qin Ze has been paying attention to this matter.

The development of any physical object requires a process, and Qin Ze can indeed directly let Datang enter the era of electricity. But for the Tang Dynasty, which is still cultivating civilization, this is meaningless at all.

The development of agriculture will lead to commerce, and the accumulation of commerce will lead to handicrafts. Machines are only useful if there is a handicraft industry.

Seeing that Li Tai lowered his head and didn't speak, Qin Ze also patted him on the shoulder and said, "First understand the knowledge I taught you, chains, gears, cams, cranks...... Either way, you have to understand. ”
