Chapter 44 The Beginning of Chaos
There was no accident on the way back. After returning, Liu Feiyun took a lot of effort to pull Li Yu out of the shadows, at the cost of telling a lot of stories, plus some small toys, such as children's bicycles, building blocks, etc.
However, the bicycle is made relatively rough, which is a limitation of the process and production is very slow.
But this thing is good and greatly facilitates everyone's travel. Especially for members of the Security Department, patrols do not need to be too easy.
Regarding the experience of this trip, Liu Feiyun also talked about Liu Shuhan. His opinions were similar to his own, and he was just watching the changes. However, Liu Shuhan added: "Feiyun, maybe the Ziyun Kingdom will be in chaos soon. Alas, it's still the people who suffer."
When prosperity occurs, the people suffer; when death occurs, the people suffer.
For this feudal era, the people were the most innocent group of people, fighting over and over, but the people who were executed were all the people. Fortunately, if they win, they would lose, and the final price would still be paid from the people.
Liu Feiyun sighed and said, "Anyway, let's live our own lives first. This situation is not something we can control."
"Besides, if Ziyun Kingdom is really in chaos, Zhao will definitely be affected. It depends on whether the opportunity can kill him."
Speaking of this, Liu Shuhan also nodded: "No matter what, Zhao must make him pay the price."
Time passed by, and the war really happened. Although the cave discovered was longer, it would not hinder their discovery of intelligence.
Pingyang County, the two sides who were looking at each other were evenly matched, but for some reason, they lost in just a few days.
The court was even more quarrels. Some of them were in charge of fighting, most of whom were cedeed to pay compensation, hoping for stability and peace, and a small number of them were looking forward to watching, and the big guys were playing games, so they could not blindly stand on the side.
On the dragon throne, Lin Shanhe, the emperor of Ziyun Kingdom, looked extremely calm, but he was extremely angry in his heart. Pingyang County was lost. Although the army did not suffer much loss, it is now defending Yunzhong County, but it is unacceptable to lose another county.
Moreover, Yunzhong County is close to Kyoto City. If it is lost again, it will either be destroyed or forced to move the capital. This is definitely not the result he wants.
However, the following group of people, who had no effect on their own salary, even sold their owners for honor, which was so hateful.
He wanted to kill these people directly, but now he couldn't do it. Otherwise, the country would be in chaos and he would be a monarch who had lost his country. How could he face his ancestors in the underworld?
"Okay, how can it be so quarrel!" Lin Shanhe didn't want to hear the noise of these people at all. He said: "Prime Minister, I'll send someone to Xihao Country to see how they want to truce the war."
"Also, let General Feng Wushuang defend Yunzhong County."
"General Wu, you will be able to support Yunzhong County with another 10,000 troops. Yunzhong County will not be defeated." Lin Shanhe said to a general who was in charge of the battle below.
"Here, we will not let you down and we will swear to defend Yunzhong County to the death." General Wu and others sent all the soldiers to the war.
The lords on the other side were mainly civil officials, several families, and others who were worried about war. Seeing Lin Shanhe making such a decision, he quickly knelt down and begged: "Your Majesty, think twice, you are trapping the country in danger, and the people are in trouble. I hope Your Majesty will take it back and make your life."
"I hope your Majesty will take back his life."
"Being presumptuous, everyone is coming to the door of your house. You are still so cowardly. Do you really think that peace can be saved? This year can be done, next year? What about the year after tomorrow? Never compromise, otherwise the country will be destroyed!"
"Hmph, retreat!"
Lin Shanhe didn't want to listen to them being stingy here anymore. At this time, what else would these people do except open their mouths?
At this time, several competitive princes in the court were there, including Lin Yi. They saw everything clearly, some of whom were flickering eyes and didn't know what they were thinking, while others left directly after the court was dispersed.
Lin Yi was the one who left directly. In this way, he understood even more what Liu Feiyun said: Aristocratic families are borers and vampires of the country. A country must still have the final say in the royal people.
"But is it really possible now?"
Looking at the group of people gathered together and whispering, headed by the three major families, they didn’t have much concern on their faces, and they just accused the Lin family of disobedience.
For a moment, undercurrents were surging under the empire, and figures were floating around at the border. The chaos was in its first disaster. If it weren't for the harvest this year, perhaps the world would have been in chaos at this time.
However, even if there is no chaos at this time, I believe that chaos will be an inevitable event in the near future.
The country is going to have a great war, but the inner government is not enough, so we can only find ways to get it together. In the end, it can only come from the people, and the source of troops also comes from the people. But why do people have to do this life-working thing unless someone doesn't let them live?
It seems that an invisible secret hand is driving the changes of the people, fleeing, not having enough food, and occupying mountains. There are also some powerful people, because of the army of Xihao Kingdom, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and he deals with it directly coldly, and he has long been independent in his heart.
As the chaotic situation became increasingly chaotic, the counties and counties behind that had not been affected by the war began to appear in disharmonious voices.
Liu Feiyun and others received a lot of information every day, all about the changes in the current situation, especially paying attention to the trends in the government and the public. Because if there is a bad decision, the Ziyun Kingdom may be gone.
But if it is gone, it will be gone. He really can't control the people. At most, he can sit on the Diaoyutai. As long as the place is not exposed, no matter who decides the world, it has nothing to do with him.
"How, is there any progress?"
Today, Liu Feiyun entered the scientific research department that he had not been here for a long time and asked about the situation. It is said that the scientific research department is developing rapidly now. With the injection of Liu Feiyun's new concept, many research results have been produced, especially in terms of improvement and improvement. Many use hydraulic power and wind power to replace a lot of labor.
Of course, what Liu Feiyun asked today was not these, but the idea of the steam engine he gave. Since he got out the bicycle, he has thought of cars and even more about the industrial revolution.
However, he was not very clear about the structure of the steam engine, and only knew how to use heat to generate steam power. He conducted a small experiment and explained the general principle. He boiled the kettle with coal, and the lid of the kettle would keep jumping. He also asked them to study based on this to see if they could make something similar to the steam engine.
Today he came here to ask about this, but the information he received made him helpless.
The thing was made, but the effect was really not satisfactory. A thing that was taller than a person could only drive a wheel as big as a palm, and it could stop it with just a little resistance.
Liu Feiyun was not disappointed because this was a good start and nothing could be achieved overnight. Besides, the steam engine was an epoch-making product. As long as this thing was created, the world would change greatly.
He encouraged: "It's already very good. As long as you improve more, the transmission power will be greater and more effective. I believe that it will be successful soon. You must have confidence."
"Don't worry, Valley Master, we will definitely make a steam engine that satisfies you. This thing must be made out, and a lot of manpower and material resources may be left in the future." Mo Yun said.
"Well, I believe you, work hard. But pay more attention to rest. You are all treasures. Who will create inventions and improve the living environment of the valley when you are tired?" Liu Feiyun encouraged him to not forget to care afterwards. No matter which era, talent is very important.
Liu Feiyun stayed for a while and went out. He met Liu Shuhan on the way, and he was patrolling and passing by.
When Liu Shuhan saw him coming out of the scientific research department, he curiously said: "Feiyun, that steam engine is so magical. Have you made any progress?"
"There is a little progress, but it still cannot achieve the effect I want." Liu Feiyun shook his head.
"It's okay, such a powerful thing is not so easy to get out." Liu Shuhan comforted him, and then he said with some expectations: "If it is really as you imagined, you don't need animal power to cultivate the land in the future, and you don't need horses to travel. There are still many tasks that can be completed in just a few people. This is amazing!"
Of course it is magical, and even more magical. If it develops to the modern level, in your eyes, it will definitely be omnipotent to heaven and earth.
Unfortunately, this is not something that can be achieved in a short period of time. Liu Feiyun smiled and said, "You can see it, don't be surprised then."
Time passed day by day, compared to the harmony in the valley, the situation outside became worse and worse. The people in Ziyun Kingdom were panicked because they were defeated again, and this time they lost completely.
Before the army of the military generals in the court arrived, Yunzhong County City was broken. General Feng Wushuang was found dead in the mansion, and the cause of death was unknown. The city gate opened again at night, without resistance, because resistance was all death.
The people of Xihao Kingdom did a very wise job. As long as they did not resist and treated the prisoners preferentially, they could give you some food to go home, and they could join Xihao Kingdom and treat them equally. This allowed the soldiers to see hope for life and seriously thwarted the morale of the Ziyun Kingdom army.
In fact, in the feudal era, the people didn’t care about any dynasty, they only cared about the monarch who was good to them.
Now the troops are directly at the city. Kyoto City has lost its former prosperity. Apart from the army coming and going, the people either hid in their own homes or had already fled far away.
"Your Majesty, move south, and leave the green mountains without worrying about burning firewood." Many civil servants of the Lord began to exhort them again, and some of them also proposed to give up all the northern territory and pray that the Xihao Kingdom would stop the Kyoto City.
"Haha." Lin Shanhe sneered. He was a group of damn borers. He knew how to fight for power and profit all day long. When the country was on the rise and fall, everyone was full of waste.
Lin Shanhe will never retreat, and he cannot retreat. At this point, if he retreats, there will be no hope in Ziyun Kingdom.
However, his children had been secretly sent away by him long ago, and the Lin family's bloodline must be preserved so that there will be hope of restoring the country in the future.
"War, I live and die together with Kyoto City."
