Seeing the excited light in Cheng Chusi's eyes, Chen Ying became puzzled for a moment.

Where does his confidence come from?

Of course, Chen Ying knew it too.Cheng Chusi's self-confidence depends on Li Shimin, the key is where does Li Shimin's self-confidence come from?

Even if Li Shimin passes through the Bering Strait, he can come to Datang along the overpass during the winter freezing period, the key is that the distance between the two is too far.

Logistical resupply is a very difficult problem.

Back then, in order to attack the Western Regions, Chen Ying led an army of 10 troops, followed by more than [-] peasants, who were responsible for transporting grain and grass. If you add large and small caravans behind, this number will exceed [-] horses.

However, the distance of Chen Ying's expedition was only more than [-] kilometers.It is only less than one-tenth of Li Shimin's expedition.

Could it be that Li Shimin has other solutions to the transportation problem?

Although Chen Yingying didn't know much about the American continent, he also knew that the American continent had no canals that could be connected by water, and there was no way to pass through the distant Tang Dynasty on the west coast of the American continent.

However, the confidence and excitement in Cheng Chusi's eyes were not fake.

Chen Ying could tell that Cheng Chusi was not lying. Words can deceive people, but eyes are the windows to the soul, and they will never lie.If it was Cheng Zhijie, Chen Ying would be suspicious. After all, the old goblin is famous for being cunning in history.

But Cheng Chusi was just a young man. ,

For a moment, Li Shimin's shadow seemed to appear in front of Chen Ying's eyes. Li Shimin said firmly to Chen Ying: "I, Li Shimin, will come back!"

Chen Ying fell into endless thoughts.

Where is Li Shimin's confidence?

Why can he counterattack Datang?

What means against the sky does he have?

PS: The prosperous Tang Dynasty is coming to an end, Lao Cheng is a little bit reluctant.It's a pity that the limelight is stronger now, and there is no way to describe the bloody killings.Lao Cheng needs everyone to help the crowdfunding group: 617604339

Across the sea, back on land.

Chen Ying still couldn't figure out where Li Shimin's confidence was.

If Li Shimin didn't have absolute certainty, he would never have the idea of ​​counterattacking Datang, let alone such a crazy idea.

When everyone was not optimistic about Li Shimin, he was still full of confidence.Then he must have something to rely on.

While in Dengzhou, Chen Ying met someone who should not have appeared.

Ma Zhou, he should be the Chief Sima of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate at this time, responsible for managing the entire Anxi.He is also Chen Ying's biggest hole card in Anxi.Because Ma Zhou was in Anxi, even if Chen Ying didn't go back, he could still fully control Anxi through Ma Zhou's hand.

Chen Ying looked at Ma Zhou and said in surprise, "Why are you here? Because of the railway?"

"That's right, His Majesty decreed that his disciples should be enlisted as Ministers of the Ministry of Railways!" Ma Zhou smiled wryly.

Li Jiancheng's imperial decree was very sudden, and he had no choice but to excuse himself to escape.The angel returned helplessly, while Ma Zhou took the train all the way from Anxi to Dengzhou.

If Chen Ying hadn't repented from the front line in Pyongyang, Ma Zhou would have already set foot on the supply ship in Pyongyang.

Chen Ying thought for a while, looked at Ma Zhou and asked, "What do you think?"

"The subordinates have no idea. If the master lets the gate go to the Ministry of Railways, the Ministry of Railways belongs to the master!" Ma Zhou laughed, "If the master wants to spy on Anxi, the disciples will stay in Anxi!"

Chen Ying pondered.

The Ministry of Railways is also the iron boss of later generations.Chen Ying is naturally clear about the energy and value in it.Although the Chidao of the Tang Dynasty has been built for more than [-] miles, it is less than one-tenth of that of later generations.Mastering the railway transportation of the entire Tang Dynasty is equivalent to grasping a golden mountain.

Of course, Anxi is also very important.

The value of Anxi is even greater, especially the gold, oil, natural and various mineral resources stored in Anxi. Now that Datang has entered the steam age, according to the research efforts of Datang craftsmen, it is by no means impossible to invent an internal combustion engine.At that time, possessing abundant oil resources will control the destiny of everyone.

You will get what you give up.

Relatively speaking, Chen Ying gave up Anxi and got the Ministry of Railways, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Chen Ying didn't know how to choose.

"Headache!" Chen Ying moaned in pain, like a fish and a bear's paw, you can't have both.

Originally, he had the advantage of being a time traveler, but when faced with a choice, he also had a headache.

Chen Ying wants to control Anxi, and even more wants to be the iron boss.

At this time, Chen Ying suddenly remembered a joke about later generations. 1000 yuan and a fishing gear, ask a person how to choose.Of course, choosing fish and fishing has its own benefits.

Chen Ying suddenly realized why he couldn't hold both the fish and the fish in his hand at the same time.

Thinking of this, Chen Ying looked at Ma Zhou and said, "Anxi Dadu Protectorate, who can replace you."

Hearing this, Ma Zhou already understood Chen Ying's choice.

Anxi wants it, and so does the Ministry of Railways.

Ma Zhou thought for a while and said, "Liu Tong, commander of Beiwei's army, is the master's subordinate. Don't worry about his loyalty, and his ability is beyond doubt."

Chen Yingdao: "That's fine, you come forward and recommend Liu Tong as the Protector of Anxi Dadu, Zhang Shigui as the Chief Sima of the Protectorate of Dadu, and Zhang Huaiwei... Let him be transferred back to Chang'an to be the Marquis of Youwu as the General of Wei."

……

The road from Dengzhou to Chang'an has been fully connected as early as the fifth year of Kaiyuan.However, with the advent of steam engine trains, the Tang Chidao at this time already had the embryonic form of future railways.

At this time, the double-track railway track in the middle of the road has long been isolated by the cement stone platform.Although the six-foot-high stone wall cannot completely isolate the flow of people, it can at least prevent animals from suddenly breaking into the railway and causing danger.

The Steam Engine College of Shule College has been completely separated from Shule College and has begun to become a train factory.Li Jiancheng is also a big hand. He built two train factories in Chang'an and Luoyang respectively.

At this time, there were more than 100 steam engine trains operating on the Datang Railway, and the transportation capacity was greatly improved.

Chen Ying did not stop in Dengzhou, but went west along Dengzhou.

On this train, Cheng Chusi was extremely surprised.Because this train was fully loaded with Zhechong Mansion, Chen Ying's personal guard, and all the equipment, and there were four trains specially loaded with more than 1000 stones of grain and grass.

What shocked Cheng Chusi the most was the speed.

It took more than [-] miles from Dengzhou to Chenliu. After six stops to add water and coal, it took only ten hours to arrive at Chenliu.

At this speed, if we marched normally, it would probably take a month.If it is cavalry, it will take about ten days.

Such a terrifying scheduling ability will make Fusang Datang feel desperate.
