Li Zhao had a bitter look on his face when he heard this, looking very reluctant. The emperor was relying on him. Even though he clearly said that these two things were too few, he still allowed himself to conquer them. This was pushing him into the army. Fire pit?
This Qin Shihuang was a bit unkind, but it was a bit comforting. After a long time, he was knighted again, and he was still the Marquis of Guannei that everyone envied. His title also soared from level three to level nineteen, even if it was a hundred gold coins in the game Players don’t level up that fast either.
Of course, he really didn't like the reward from the Marquis of Guannei, but the title contained a relatively high value, which meant that his status became the highest among all the ministers. Even the lieutenant had to laugh when he saw him.
This is a rise in status.
As for the Northern Expedition, he is not opposed to it. Judging from the number of multiple rocket launchers and tanks built so far, it is enough to crush the Huns. Of course, he also has another idea, which is to explore the top of the snow-capped mountains. The emperor said that the top of the snow-capped mountains is Maybe in Xiongnu, it would be just right.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Zhao will definitely live up to your expectations."
Li Zhao stood up and thanked the emperor without any intention of refusing. The emperor nodded slightly and said that he would personally see him off on the day when the army was dispatched.
For a moment, the scene was warm, and all the ministers were glad that such a tragic loss had not happened to them after all.
Some people are willing to march north, which means that there is an obstacle for the Xiongnu to invade the Qin Dynasty. They don't know how big the obstacle will be, or how many casualties there will be, but after all, it is not them.
His heart couldn't help but relax, but at the same time he felt regretful that Li Zhaocai led an army of 10,000 people to march north, which was no different from sending someone to death.
After the matter was settled, the emperor also announced his resignation, and everyone left one after another. However, Ah Chao couldn't wait to rush to Li Zhao and shouted: "Master, there is still another joy!"
After hearing this, Ying Zheng, who was about to return to the inner hall, suddenly stopped, turned to look at Ah Chao, and asked, "How happy are you?"
Ah Chao really didn't expect that the emperor was still paying attention to him, so he looked at Li Zhao again. Li Zhao nodded, and then he said: "The car has been built and is about to be tested."
"Made?"
Two screams came at the same time, one from Li Zhao and the other from the emperor.
Li Zhao was surprised that these craftsmen were really capable. He only gave the design and operation secrets of the internal combustion engine, but not the car structure, and actually built it. It was unexpected.
But I feel relieved when I think about it. Since the construction of Shanglinyuan, new things have been continuously manufactured in the base. I have been exposed to a lot of new things and have rich experience. As long as I have the internal combustion engine, an important part of the car, I can only do a little research on other things. , I'm afraid it won't trouble them, but I don't know if the appearance is very different from the car in the previous life.
He was looking forward to it.
Ying Zheng had been longing for a car for a long time. He quickly turned around and walked over, "Hurry up and take me to see it. I want to try it myself."
Li Zhao was stunned. The emperor's reaction was too exaggerated. He wanted to try it himself. He should be aware that testing is a dangerous process, and he would be in trouble if he failed.
"Your Majesty, just let Zhao test it." Li Zhao persuaded, but Ying Zheng didn't allow it. Maybe he was too eager, or the successful test of the steam carriage made him confident in the craftsmen, but he didn't care much.
"I have to try it myself, and of course you can come with me." Ying Zheng was very determined, and Li Zhao couldn't say anything else.
"We will try it tomorrow, and all the ministers will watch it." After repeated discussions, the emperor made a decision.
After walking out of the secret palace, the first thing Li Zhao did was ask Mr. Shen about the progress of his oil refining workshop.
Whether it is cars or tanks, they all need fuel. If the oil refinery has not refined the fuel, everything will be in vain.
Fortunately, Mr. Shen's efficiency is still relatively high. The workshop has already refined gasoline, but he has not yet had time to report it.
Cars generally use gasoline, but tanks do not use diesel. When he gave Mr. Shen the secret book, he also told him to separate the two types of oil. Mr. Shen is quite reliable in doing things, and he said that he has already distinguished them. We have come and tested diesel fuel at the Epang Palace construction site, and the effect is not bad.
That's good, now everything is ready and everything can fall into place.
The next step is to let the base produce as many artillery shells as possible, and conduct tests on cars, multiple rocket launchers, and tanks. The rocket launcher tests were not bad. After returning to Shanglinyuan, the elite who went to Baihua Valley came to the door and said The rocket launcher test was a great success.
Then prepare to test cars and tanks.
The next day, the emperor couldn't wait and summoned Li Zhao to the iron smelting base early to conduct car testing.
Li Zhao did not dare to neglect and rushed to the base quickly.
The base is a secret place. It was moved here after the property was moved to Shanglinyuan, but it was built in a very secret place. But after the last theft, it became no longer secret.
However, the security has also been improved several times, and there are even elite patrols taking turns, making it airtight.
At this moment, at the door, there are three objects: cars, tanks and multiple rocket launchers.
Li Zhao already had an impression of tanks and multiple rocket launchers, so he didn't find it strange. At least the appearance was slightly different from what he had seen in magazines in his previous life, but the cars made him quite speechless.
This shape is clearly that of a steam carriage, but the steam engine is changed into an internal combustion engine.
However, the materials also know how to innovate. They are all made of iron, and the hub, rim, and shaft are quite strong. However, the wheels are a bit out of proportion. They are at most an enlarged version of a carriage wheel.
The internal combustion engine has a lot of horsepower. If it is running at a normal speed, the wheel may still be able to hold up. However, at high speeds, it loses its stamina and may even fall out, posing a high safety risk.
The carriages are also a bit smaller. The cars are also going to the front line, and some artillery shells have to be transported. They rely on cars, so the cars must be stable.
However, the wheels of this car were unreliable. It was fine for traveling lightly, but once it was loaded with heavy objects, it would easily become detached or break apart, so it could only be replaced with modern wheels.
Of course, it was impossible to make wheels, at least because there was not enough time. Even if he had time, he couldn't get more rubber, so he had to use ready-made ones and buy them in department stores.
As a last resort, the test date had to be postponed by one day, and the wheels and corresponding accessories were purchased from the department store to get the craftsmen busy immediately.
With the experience of building a car and the secrets purchased by Li Zhao, after the craftsmen worked overnight, a brand new car appeared.
At this moment, the appearance is still the same as a steam carriage, but the inside is undergoing great refinement, and it is all made according to the secret book.
Another day, the car test arrived on time. Outside Shanglin Garden, beside the iron bridge, there were people of all kinds standing. There were people from Shanglin Garden, craftsmen, and workers from Afang Palace. They were all inconspicuous people and could only be seen in the distance. Looking from a distance, the inner circle was full of ministers and guards, all dispatched to surround the cement road.
And in front of the concrete road, there is a unique car parked, which is the car that will be tested today.
When everything was ready, Xiang Yu came to report that the cement road on Qinzhidao had been repaired. (End of chapter)
