Chapter 924 The Out-of-Control Great Western Army

When the spy reported the situation of the military parade of the Mughal Empire to Dahua, all the ministers of Dahua were shocked.

"It's all our fault, it's driving everyone crazy."

Chief of Staff Tao Dongcheng laughed.

Wu Changqing felt that this blame cannot be taken back, and it seems that no one forced them in later generations, and their military parade is not like this.

Maybe, this is their preference, and it has nothing to do with them.

These things, that is, to bring some joy to Dahua's court, were thrown aside after laughing.

Wu Changqing is more concerned about the situation in the northwest.

The Daxi Army in the Northwest had an accident, and Li Dingguo did not follow his instructions.

Dahua asked Li Dingguo to go directly to Persia and destroy Persia.

However, after Li Dingguo fought two battles with Persia, he chose to go north to attack Zhongyuzi and Xiaoyuzi (Kazakhstan).

The supervising army in front asked Li Dingguo why he did not obey the order, and Li Dingguo said that he could not beat Persia.

However, according to the analysis of Tao Dongcheng and others, Li Dingguo may be unwilling to be controlled by Dahua and wants to find another way to make a living.

And once you do this, you have to be prepared to be cut off from logistics by Dahua.

It was for this reason that Li Dingguo didn't want to consume the powerful Persian Empire, but turned north to attack Yuzi, preparing to penetrate Yuzi, and then go all the way to Eastern Europe.

"This guy has won a few battles, and he probably thinks he can do it again."

Liu Hansan said with a sneer that he is now an honorary veteran of the Strategy Bureau and has no real power, but his status is very high and his words are very influential.

This time, as a founding hero, he accompanied Wu Changqing to inspect the world.

"Don't pay too much attention to him. If he doesn't fight, then we will do it ourselves. It doesn't make any difference."

Tang Guozhen said.

Their military even liked the result quite a bit.

It's too boring to follow Li Dingguo to pick up territory, and they all want to play by themselves.

"Li Dingguo is still very capable. I think he may have mastered the bullet manufacturing technology and got rid of our logistics dependence to a certain extent. That's why he wanted to be king and hegemony."

Tao Dongcheng said.

Although Tao Dongcheng was just guessing, he guessed it right.

Not only the technology of making bullets, they have also mastered the technology of manufacturing mortar shells.

Dealing with these things all day long, and willing to spend time studying them, Dahua is not careful enough to guard against them, and their advantages are much greater than those of Western Europeans.

So that, quietly, Li Dingguo has mastered the manufacturing technology of these two kinds of arms.

In other words, he can get rid of his dependence on Dahua.

The princes and generals are kind to each other, and of course Li Dingguo also wants to be emperor.

Now that there is a glimmer of opportunity, he naturally refuses to miss it and wants to give it a try.

Although there is a Dahua who is eyeing him, but he believes that Dahua will not put too much energy in the Western Regions.

So, he still has a chance.

As long as you go to Eastern Europe, the Emperor Shan Gao is far away, and he can establish a country there. And use the powerful force in your hands to integrate the human resources of Eastern Europe and build a powerful country.

If it goes well, it can also annex Western Europe and compete with Dahua.

That's their plan, full bodied.

Of course, they also know that it will be difficult to achieve.

So when it comes to specific actions, they are very pragmatic.

They didn't go to fight with Persia, because Persia is very powerful, even if they can fight, after the fight is over, the soldiers in their hands will be damned, and in the end they are still cheaper than Dahua.

Moreover, compared with Eastern Europe, Persia is still too close to Dahua.

Cherish life and stay away from Dahua.

This is Li Dingguo's world view.

All the way through Xiaoyuzi, Zhongyuzi and Dayuzi, the Great Western Army reached the border between Tsarist Russia and Cossacks (Ukraine).

Li Dingguo's early goal is the Cossacks.

The Cossacks have a superior geographical environment and are a good place to feed people.

Li Dingguo has become a runaway wild horse, and Wu Changqing doesn't know what the situation in Europe will look like next.

But it doesn't matter, a wild horse that has run free is still a horse.

When you are free one day, you can use the Ma Xuan to trap it.

He didn't believe that Li Dingguo could rise up and shake the sky if he mastered some bullet-making technology, so he might not look down on Dahua's background too much.

As long as he thinks, Li Dingguo can't escape from his palm.

But right now, he is not in a hurry for the time being, let's wait until more cars are built and more oil is extracted. By the way, first repair the road from the Central Plains to the Western Regions.

Roads and railways are indispensable.

Going south along the Beiguang Line, Wu Changqing inspected Changsha, Zhuzhou and Shaoguan, and then arrived at the most important city in the south, Guangzhou.

Because Guangzhou is closer to Western Europe and Southeast Asia, it has gradually become the main port of call for ocean-going trade ships. Judging from this development trend, it seems to have the momentum to surpass Shanghai.

Today's North America is underdeveloped, and ocean trade is mainly concentrated in Western Europe, Southeast Asia, India and other places. Therefore, the geographical location of Shanghai is slightly worse than that of Guangzhou.

Geographic location is too important for the development of a place.

Wu Changqing got off at the East Station and entered the city.

Guangzhou city today

, without walls.

Originally, the city walls in Guangzhou were not very high. When Li Yao came to Guangzhou, he simply ordered all the city walls to be demolished.

In his words, how can anyone dare to attack Guangzhou now?

This kind of city wall is meaningless at all, and keeping it can only hinder traffic.

Therefore, Guangzhou took the lead in becoming a big city without city walls.

The roads leading from Guangzhou to various places are like spider webs, and you can see many of them as far as you can see, which is completely different from other places.

If it is in Nanjing, there is a super-large official road at the South City Gate, and only after going out for several miles, there will be some small roads connecting the official road.

Just by looking at the densely packed roads, one can see how well Guangzhou is developing.

If the development is not good, there is not so much money to build roads.

A large part of Guangzhou's annual tax revenue has to be paid to the imperial court, and the rest can be reserved for Guangzhou's development.

The money for these road constructions was all paid by the Guangzhou local government, not the money of the imperial court.

Entering the urban area, Wu Changqing arrived at the palace prepared by Li Yao, which was located in Yuexiu District and Yuexiu Park in the later generations.

There is a very luxurious hotel here, which was temporarily requisitioned by Li Yao.

The emperor's food, clothing, housing and transportation are the most important things. In the past, the emperor had to build palaces in many places.

But now, Wu Changqing is not so wasteful.

The Nanhai Hotel was expropriated, but its owner, Ye Feihong, was smiling.

This is a super honorable thing. If you put up a sign saying 'this is where the emperor lived' in the future, there will be a lot of tourists.
