"This country is too domineering, too arrogant, and it is not even allowed to beg, so don't you give those homeless people a way to live?" Some people gritted their teeth, feeling that the Tang Kingdom was simply a brutal country, and even beggars were not allowed to exist.

"You know what a. "

The residents of the Tang Kingdom looked at this group of people with contempt: "As long as you have hands and feet, you will not starve people to death in the Tang Kingdom, let them build the railway, but give them the opportunity to work, do you know? "

"Impossible, what are you kidding, do you mean that there is no starvation death in the Tang Kingdom now?" As soon as these words came out, everyone was taken aback.

After all, even if it is a powerful country of treasures, it does not dare to say that its own country will not starve to death.

Because there are occasional natural and man-made disasters, such as floods, droughts, plagues and other disasters, once these disasters occur, we don't know how many people will be displaced and corpses will be scattered all over the wilderness.

But now the Tang Kingdom will not starve to death, this is not a joke, or something.

"It's not a joke, because it's all a gift from the gods, and the gods have given us divine rice, so that we don't have to go hungry anymore. "

When the residents of the Tang Kingdom talked about the gods, they immediately showed a pious look, after all, the gods who solved the famine in the Tang Kingdom, no matter how revered they were, it was not too much.

God?!

Everyone's eyes flickered, to be honest, before coming to Tang Kingdom, they had heard some information about Tang Kingdom, Tang Kingdom claimed to be a country of gods, a country blessed by ancient gods.

But they didn't believe it very much, thinking that it must be the lord of the Tang Kingdom who was bragging, how could there be such a creature as an ancient god in this world.

Therefore, it must be some kind of special world prop that made such a situation happen in Tang Kingdom.

But no matter what the truth is, it is certain that the Tang Kingdom has amazing financial resources, and the ability to make the two tens of billions of people hungry alone is enough to make the country of treasures greedy.

If they can snatch such a world item, then the national power of the Treasure Country will probably reach a new level.

"What do you mean by railroad?"

The third prince, Zhao Feng, suddenly noticed the strange noun spoken by the uncle, it was the first time he had heard of such a thing as a railway, which made him very curious.

"Haha, this is the first time you have come to Tang Kingdom, and it is normal to not know that the railway is actually a very normal thing, it is now the main means of transportation in our Tang Kingdom, and we basically have to go to the station, take a carriage, and go to major cities in China. The old man stroked his white beard and smiled slightly.

"Why do you need to build a railroad for a horse-drawn carriage?"

A group of people looked confused.

After all, according to their understanding, the so-called carriage is a horse pulling a cart and constantly galloping on the road, but there is no need to build any railways at all, ordinary dirt roads are enough.

"Well, there's the station ahead, so you'll see what's going on. "

The old man led everyone to the front station very enthusiastically.

What the?!

The third prince Zhao Feng and the others quickly went to the station in Heihe City, and immediately they saw a huge building appear in front of them, which was simply full of traffic and people.

It seems that tens of thousands of people are coming in and out every moment.

At the same time, goods from all over the world are gathered in this place, which is not only the center of the crowd, but also the center of the gathering of goods, which can be called the busiest and most lively place in Heihe City.

Immediately, they saw a road in front of them, which was made of steel and stretched straight into the distance, with no end in sight.

And on this steel road stood a strange object, made of one carriage after another, at least a dozen carriages, which looked like a black snake.

At the head of these carriages was a huge horse, red as if it had been made of flames, and from time to time it burst into flames and whined.

Many passengers dragged their luggage up and down these carriages.

Even these strange carriages were not just as simple as one, there were more than a dozen of them standing side by side at the same time, which looked extremely amazing, completely shocking Zhao Feng and the others.

"Is this a carriage?"

Zhao Feng and the others were stunned, when had they ever seen such a means of transportation, it was simply unheard of.

"That's right, this is the special means of transportation of our Tang Kingdom - horse-drawn carriages. "

The old man said proudly: "Don't look at it as ordinary, but it can reach a speed of 600 kilometers per hour, and if you go at full speed, it can even reach 1,000 kilometers, but most of the time it is 600 kilometers per hour."

It is 20,000 kilometers to reach the capital Chang'an, but if you don't run day and night, it is estimated that it will take you a day and a half. "

What the?!

As soon as these words came out, the third prince Zhao Feng and the others were even more shocked, they couldn't believe what they heard with their ears, the distance of 20,000 kilometers only took a day and a half to arrive, which was too exaggerated.

It was so exaggerated that they couldn't believe the old man's words, and even thought that the other party was bragging.

But when they saw the old man's serious face, they knew that the other party was not lying.

"Just kidding, with such a speed, if you are transporting soldiers, wouldn't it mean that you can rush from the capital to the most frontier city in a day and a half? Even if there is any unrest in the border city, a large number of reinforcements will arrive quickly and can be suppressed in an instant. "

The military use of these railways was discerned.

You must know why it is so difficult to rule a huge empire, because the territory is too vast, so that the forces are scattered, so that if there is a rebellion in a certain place, it is difficult for the central army to appear and rescue in time.

Without this railway, it would have taken at least a few months, or even a year, to arrive.

After all, the army is also human and needs to rest.

Moreover, when the army travels, it also needs to carry a variety of logistics, which naturally slows down the speed of the march.

But now the advent of the carriage and the advent of the railroad have changed everything, all the soldiers and logistics materials can be carried to the carriage, and they can be directly pulled to another place in a day and a half, and the soldiers will not be tired.

Without a doubt, this is definitely an epoch-making mode of transportation.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed that there was such a means of transportation in the world.
