"Didi... didi... didi..."

After Ying Zheng waved his hand and wrote down a few big characters, the telegraph operator did not dare to delay and immediately transmitted it to Cao Shen.

Han Xin, Wang Li and others were startled when they heard the telegraph machine ringing, "Oh my God, this thing can still ring on its own?"

After hearing the sound, the telegraph operator quickly recorded it and wrote something on the paper.

After a while, the sound stopped, and the telegraph operator handed the written note to Cao Shen and others, "Reporting to the generals, there is a telegram from Xianyang!"

"What? You mean...Xianyang is sending news back now?"

Peng Yue and others had disbelief written all over their faces.

They were mumbling just now that even if this machine could really transmit messages, they couldn't tell when it would arrive.

But they didn't expect that after they drank two cups of tea, news would come back?

"Haha! What do you think?"

Cao Shen smiled and took the paper from the telegraph operator's hand, unfolded it first, read it with a smile, and handed it to several others.

"Keep up the good work and take over the entire Mauryan Empire?"

Han Xin took it and looked at Cao Shen in shock.

"That's right...!"

Cao Shen smiled and nodded, "This is the reply given by His Majesty!"

"Can this thing really be reached instantly?"

What shocked Han Xin was not Ying Zheng's reply, but these two inconspicuous little boxes.

They never expected that this thing could transmit messages so quickly!

"Then you think I traveled thousands of miles to send this thing here just to play with you?"

Cao Shen was really helpless. They had already received His Majesty's reply, but they still didn't believe it.

"Old Cao, since this thing is so important, you just put it at the door casually after you entered?"

Fan Kuai pointed to the place where the telegraph machine had just been placed and said in surprise.

"Otherwise, where should I put it? There is not even a table in the whole room. This Maurya Dynasty is really poor!"

Cao Shen had already taken a look at it from the moment he entered the door. Except for a decent-looking blanket spread on the floor, there was nothing in the whole room.

This is also said to be the place where the city lord lives. Except for the bigger house, the rest is not even as good as the most ordinary people in their Great Qin!

"Well... that's true!"

Fan Kuai glanced at the whole room and nodded as if he was suddenly aware, "Old Cao, you don't know that this Mauryan Dynasty is very backward! Not only do there not be tables, chairs or benches here, there are not even decent tea sets and bowls! Let alone our Da Qin people." Concrete roads and steam trains, you don’t even have to think about it! The most important thing is that there is no toilet paper, you know?”

Mentioning this, everyone's mouths became flat.

When a large army goes on an expedition, it can only carry some important supplies.

Compared with food, toilet paper is not important at all, so I didn’t bring much!

They have been accustomed to using toilet paper in the past few years, and now they are forced to use toilet chips and wooden sticks again. It is extremely uncomfortable and they cannot wipe it clean at all. They always feel weird in their hearts!

There is no way, the conditions are limited, I can only endure it!

"By the way, Lao Cao, did you bring us toilet paper this time?"

Several people stared at him eagerly.

However, Cao Shen shook his head, "Toilet paper cannot be eaten or drunk, and it cannot be used as bullets on the battlefield. Why should I bring that thing?"

"well!"

Everyone sighed in disappointment.

"Old Cao, let me tell you, you don't know how disgusting these niggas are. They even scratch it with their hands when eating. They even use their hands when going to the toilet!"

"What?"

Hearing this, Cao Shen was shocked.

Even if Daqin didn't have toilet paper before, they still had toilet paper. After using it, wash it in water and it can be used again next time!

And they also use chopsticks to eat, not just grabbing it with their hands!

"Isn't this Maurya Dynasty too weird? They eat and poop with their hands? Ugh..."

Cao Shen said with a look of disgust on his face. That scene seemed to suddenly appear in front of his eyes. His stomach was churning and he almost vomited his breakfast.

"Okay, let's not say these useless things. His Majesty asked us to keep up our efforts, but now there are locusts all over the sky outside, as if they are tireless, circling day and night, and it is difficult to even go out. How can we go out of the city to visit the entire Maurya Kingdom? "

Han Xin walked to the window and sighed.

"Alas...! Yes!"

Several other people also sighed deeply.

No one expected that while the battle was going smoothly, such a group of guys would appear in the middle of the battle!

"Huh? That's right! Isn't this thing capable of transmitting sounds thousands of miles away? Why don't we tell His Highness our current situation? His Highness has many ideas and must have a solution!"

Just when everyone was at a loss what to do, Fan Kuai's eyes fell on the telegraph machine unconsciously, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Huh? That's right! His Royal Highness must have a way!"

This proposal was immediately approved by several other people.

Before, I struggled with not being able to deliver the news.

Now that there is a telegraph machine, it is much easier to send messages!

"Yes! Send a telegram to His Royal Highness now!"

Just do it, Han Xin picked up paper and pen and started writing quickly.

Since the news can reach His Majesty, it must also reach His Majesty the Crown Prince!

Let’s see if His Royal Highness has any good ideas!

"The army encountered a locust plague in Nalanda and stopped moving forward!"

With the experience last time, this time, Han Xin only used a few words to explain the general meaning.

"Didi... Didi..."

After some fiddling by the telegraph operator, the telegraph machine began to make sounds again.

After a while, the telegraph operator handed over his hand and reported, "General Han, the message has been passed on!"

"good!"

Han Xin was shocked by the speed of the telegraph machine and nodded one after another.



"Didi..."

In Xianyang City, the telegraph machine rang again.

After some translation, the telegraph operator wrote down the general meaning!

"Quick! Go and give it to His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Although Han Xin only wrote a few short sentences, he must have signed it. Otherwise, in such a huge palace, how would the telegraph operator know who to send the telegram to?

The soldiers moved quickly, and in just a moment, a telegram was delivered to Ying Feiyu's hands!

At this time, they were all still in the imperial study, happy for Han Xin and others' victory.

At the same time, we are also discussing how to distribute these 300,000 prisoners!

There will inevitably be some noise during this period!

It wasn't until the soldiers came to report again that they were interrupted!

"Your Highness, I have your telegram!"

"mine?"

Ying Feiyu pointed to the tip of his nose in surprise.

Who sends a telegram to himself?

If someone is looking for him in the city, just send someone to the palace directly.

But outside Xianyang City, he didn't interact with anyone?

Even if something is reported to the branch offices in various places, it must be reported to the headquarters first, and then the headquarters will send someone to deliver the news!

No one would send a telegram directly to themselves!

"That's right! Your Highness, this is a telegram from the Maurya Dynasty!"

The soldier nodded firmly and explained the source.

"Um?"

This time, the one who is most confused is Ying Zheng.

Han Xin hadn't just sent a telegram to himself, so why did he send it to this guy again?

Could it be that he didn't know that they were together, so he gave this kid another chance to be safe?
