Chapter 87 Feng Quji's Doubts
Since the tracks along the train route are clear of people, the train can speed up as much as it wants.

Ying Zheng and his group held onto the railings beside them and felt the sensation of riding on the train.

This is so stable!

No matter how good a carriage is, it cannot be as stable as a horse carriage.

Even the dragon chariot that Ying Zheng himself rode was the same.

Ying Zheng had already begun to imagine what it would be like when railways were spread all over the Qin Dynasty. At that time, he would be able to travel around the country by train and would no longer need to form a large and bloated eastern tour team.

Wang Jian thought about the scene in the future when he would follow the soldiers on a train to quickly support the front line.

However, Wang Jian suddenly thought of a problem: if the situation continued to develop as it was now.

It seems that the main enemies of the Qin Dynasty, the Xiongnu and the Baiyue, could not stop the Qin army in the future.

So what he had just thought of doing, that is, taking a train to support the front line, could not happen at all.

Wherever a railway can be built, it means that the enemies there have been eliminated.

Wang Jian also knew that in this era no army could withstand the pistols and grenades made by Zhao Yi.

The train continued to accelerate until it reached 50 kilometers per hour and then stopped.

Everyone on the train was amazed at the high speed of the train.

Even Wang Jian, who had fought on horseback for half his life, had never experienced such a fast speed.

After all, there are not many flat roads in Daqin, and there are no stirrups to facilitate controlling horses.

Not to mention everyone else.

You can imagine how amazing the train's speed of up to 50 kilometers per hour was for them.

Only Zhao Yi could continue to remain calm.

After all, the speed of the train is nothing to Zhao Yi.

This is a speed that can be reached by riding a bicycle or electric car in modern times.

Not to mention that Zhao Yi has also taken the high-speed rail, which can only be considered high-speed if its speed exceeds 200 kilometers per hour.

The train then stopped accelerating and continued to move forward under the propulsion of inertia.

The train didn't stop until it reached the end of the laid railway.

Then the train started to reverse and speed up to go back...

At dusk, Ying Zheng and his companions got on the carriage for their return trip.

Ying Zheng said with emotion: "This kid Zhao Yi has created something amazing again. I didn't expect the train he talked about is so amazing."

Wang Jian echoed, "Yes, if the railway can be built to all parts of Daqin, then the imperial court's control over all places will rise to an unprecedented level, and it will be able to completely control all parts of Daqin!"

Ying Yinman also exclaimed: "That train is going really fast, faster than riding a horse! How did Zhao Yi build it?"

Ying Zheng shook his head and said, "Who knows? After all, we are not Zhao Yi."

Hey~
It would be better if that kid didn't always think about rebelling.

When Ying Zheng thought about how Zhao Yi brought up the rebellion when he was leaving, his head started to hurt again.

Zhao Yi is good in everything except this one thing.

However, Ying Zheng planned to raise the supply of materials to Shaqiu County to the highest priority after returning.

Even the metal ore supply to the Daqin Military Factory was stopped and transferred to Shahe Village.

After all, Zhang Han's record of killing three thousand with one hundred men showed that no matter how many swords, spears and armor he made, he was no match for Zhao Yi's pistols and grenades.

It would be better to use those mineral raw materials to supply Shahe Village.

This will allow Zhao Yi's Shahe Village to have sufficient materials to produce rails and other things. ...

The capital of the Qin State was Xianyang, Feng Mansion.

Right Prime Minister Feng Quji was holding a secret meeting with officials from his own faction.

"Ah~"

Feng Quji sighed after reading the imperial edict that had just arrived.

He asked in confusion, "What on earth is there in Shaqiu County that would make His Majesty stay there and order all the national supplies to be concentrated there?"

"Even the supply of ore and raw materials to the arsenal has stopped."

Neishiteng Sima Xin was surprised and said, "Even the supply of ore to the arsenal has stopped! What on earth is your majesty doing? This will affect the production of military equipment. Then the Qin soldiers will be left without weapons and armor."

Feng Quji shook his head and said, "I don't know why His Majesty did this. He ordered that all the iron ore be supplied to Shaqiu County."

Sima Xin was also puzzled: "Why is His Majesty so wary of us and doesn't even reveal a little bit of information from Shaqiu County?"

Chunyu Yue, the imperial steward, also spoke up: "Yes, why did His Majesty keep it a secret from us? He didn't reveal any information at all."

Feng Quji looked at the imperial edict in his hand and said slowly: "Your Majesty probably has his own plans. I can't see what your Majesty is thinking of doing now."

Chun Yuyue said with some fear: "Yes. Who would have thought that His Majesty could actually discover the situation in Kuaiji County, and be able to wipe out 3,000 rebels without alerting other parties, and then purge the officials in Kuaiji County."

Sima Xin echoed, "I still can't figure out how your majesty found out about the rebellion in Kuaiji County. He was clearly still in Shaqiu County."

Feng Quji said, "If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. His Majesty is not something you can guess. You need to be mentally prepared. I have a feeling that when His Majesty returns to Xianyang again, Great Qin will undergo earth-shaking changes."

Although Feng Quji did not understand Ying Zheng's various orders.

But he was also an old minister beside Ying Zheng, otherwise he would not have been given the position of right prime minister.

Therefore, Feng Quji knew his majesty very well, and he was not the kind of incompetent ruler who would bring harm to the country.

Every decision your majesty makes is based on the interests of Daqin and is to maintain Daqin's rule.

Just like His Majesty's many tours to the east, although His Majesty was also looking for immortals, the purpose of the tours to the east was more to investigate the situation in various parts of Qin and maintain Qin's rule.

So there must be a reason for His Majesty's recent orders.

However, Feng Quji was still very curious about what His Majesty encountered in Shaqiu County?
It can make Your Majesty stop the eastern tour and supply all kinds of materials from all over the country there.

Feng Quji couldn't figure out what organization in Shaqiu County could consume all those supplies.

And what on earth were those supplies used for?

Could it be that Your Majesty really encountered some immortal in Shaqiu County?

Only when Your Majesty sees a real immortal will he discover that the elixir made by the alchemist in the palace is a fake.

Otherwise, His Majesty would not have suddenly ordered the execution of the alchemist in the palace.

Then, Your Majesty mobilized all kinds of materials from all over Qin to be used by the immortal.

If you meet an immortal, everything will make sense.

Whether it was discovering the rebellion of the Xiang family in Kuaiji County or wiping out the 3,000 rebels in Kuaiji County.

These are things that even immortals can do.

In fact, no matter how hard Feng Quji thought, he could not have imagined that all the decisions Ying Zheng had made recently were because of a three-year-old child.

After all, this is ridiculous, but it's the truth.
