"Woooo..."
The train whistle sounded, seeming to urge everyone to sit down in their seats.
"Where do you want to go this time?"
Sitting in the luxuriously decorated living room, Ying Feiyu asked.
"Go all the way north to Shang County and Yanmen County to have a look!"
After unifying the six kingdoms, the Xiongnu became Qin's biggest enemy.
Not only did they invade the borders of Daqin and plunder the people's food, but they also frequently committed such horrific acts as massacres of villages!
For this reason, Da Qin often sent troops, but the results were never great.
The Huns were very cunning and would retreat as soon as the Qin Dynasty sent out a large army.
The Qin army did not understand the terrain and could only withdraw its troops!
As soon as the Qin army left, those Huns came out again and continued to harass the people on the border!
It wasn't until the appearance of Ying Feiyu that the Xiongnu army was completely wiped out and turned into the counties of Da Qin!
Therefore, in addition to seeing the harvest of the people, Ying Zheng also wanted to go to Yanmen County to see how the Huns were living now!
"Um...that's fine!"
Ying Feiyu thought this old guy was just going out for a walk, but he didn't expect to go that far.
As I said before, it would only be three days. Even if I go to Yanmen County, I won’t be able to stay for a few days!
"Click... click..."
"Didn't you say that a train travels thousands of miles a day? I'm going to experience it myself this time to see if you are lying!"
The train started slowly. Ying Zheng was somewhat excited and said with a smile.
“The train has been running for so long, there’s no doubt about its speed!”
In this regard, Ying Feiyu really doesn't need to be modest.
It has been nearly a year since the train opened, and it has always been very smooth, and it can be reached in one day!
"Your Majesty, the train is getting faster and faster, haha!"
Wang Ben and others sat together, looking at the beautiful scenery outside the window, and said in surprise.
"Hmph! It's not the first time for you guys to take a train. Are you so surprised?"
Ying Zheng glanced at several people angrily.
On weekdays, he always makes noises about why he is not allowed to take the train for the sake of the country's interests.
As a result, they often ran out together.
"Your Majesty, riding the train is much faster than riding a horse. It's very enjoyable!"
The veterans were also used to being scolded by Ying Zheng, and they became increasingly thick-skinned. They didn't take this little scolding to heart at all.
"Um!"
As the train speeds up, the trees outside the window recede faster and faster.
Ying Zheng gradually smiled.
The last time I took a train was when the railway was just being repaired and was being tested.
In order to ensure their safety, they only ran a short distance.
Before I could get enough of it, the train turned around and came back!
Now it's better, I can finally have a good time, and no one will stop me because of the unsafe train!
"Your Majesty, look, there are already people harvesting crops in the fields!"
Passing by a rice field, Feng Quji said in surprise.
"The rain has moderated this year, and the rice harvest has been particularly good. Each one is heavy and golden!"
"No! The crops are growing well, and the people are energetic when harvesting!"
Wang Ben and Zhang Han also spoke one after another.
"Well! This year is another good harvest year!"
Ying Zheng looked at the people busy farming outside the window and felt even more pleased.
At the same time, the people also discovered this unique train on the railway track, and said in confusion, "Huh? This train is so beautiful, completely different from the ones we have seen before!"
"Hey! It's true! That look in your eyes is so beautiful!"
"I heard that His Majesty has a special train where black and red meet each other. Could it be this one?"
"Yeah! That should be it, that's right!"
"That means... His Majesty is inside?"
A family who was harvesting rice suddenly reacted after seeing this unique train and waved excitedly towards the train.
Upon seeing this, Ying Zheng waved to them through the car window!
"Yeah! Did you see that? People in the train are also waving to us!"
"Yeah, I saw it! He couldn't be His Majesty, right?"
"Is there any need to think about it? It must be!"
"Wow! I'm so excited! His Majesty actually waved to us. I have to talk to my neighbor's sister-in-law when I turn around...!"
Ying Zheng's response made the whole family excited, and they waved their arms even more vigorously.
"Your Majesty, look how enthusiastic our people in Great Qin are!"
Feng Quji spoke.
"Yes! Fei Yu is right, as long as the people have enough food and clothing, they will no longer have the desire to rebel!"
Before Ying Zheng's eastward tour, he had to prepare multiple carriages and rotate them every day to prevent sneak attacks.
Now it's better, the Qin Dynasty is stable, the people are prosperous, and no one will think of rebellion, let alone kill him as the emperor.
However, just in case, I still brought a lot of guards with me on this tour.
The train was speeding, and whatever new things the veterans saw along the way, they would share them with Ying Zheng.
Ying Feiyu found a quiet place to sleep!
In order to send the navy officers out to sea, he had already gotten up before dawn. In addition, the train was swaying back and forth, so that he could not open his eyelids now!
"Bah..."
At about three o'clock in the morning, a harsh friction sound suddenly came from the train.
At the same time, the speed of the train also slowly dropped.
"What's going on? Was there an accident on the train?"
Ying Zheng suddenly turned his head and looked out the window.
Unfortunately, it's still early and it's so dark outside the window that I can't see anything clearly!
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. The trains have been tested for a long time and there will definitely be no problems!"
"Yes! According to the time calculation, we should be arriving at the station soon!"
The third quarter of Yinshi is four o'clock in the morning in future generations.
According to the living habits of later generations, they should still be in a state of sleep.
But for the ministers of this era, it is already time to have breakfast and prepare to go to court!
Therefore, due to the influence of the biological clock, everyone except Ying Feiyu has already gotten up and is drinking tea and chatting in the hall!
It was the first time for Ying Zheng to ride a train for such a long time. He didn't know much about trains, so he was very confused.
But veteran riders have ridden it many times, and every time they want to stop, they will make this kind of braking sound. They have long been used to it!
"Arrived? Are we going to Yanmen County now?"
Ying Zheng looked shocked.
From the time they got on the bus to now, it has been less than ten hours and they have arrived in Yanmen County?
You know, the two places are more than a thousand miles apart, and they arrived in less than a day?
"That's right! My father took a special train and didn't stop on the way, so he arrived in less than ten hours. If he took an ordinary train, he would have to stop at every county, and it would take at least twelve hours to arrive!"
Hearing the sound of brakes, Ying Feiyu got up and answered this question.
"Whoa...! It's really fast!"
Ying Zheng took a breath.
If it were in the past, one day's work might not even reach the boundaries of Xianyang City.
Now you can reach Yanmen County in one day!
It's so fast!
