Chapter 451
Xianyang City, the Imperial Palace.
"Something happened on the way, I came back late, didn't I make my father wait?"
Ying Yu hurriedly walked into the imperial study room.
I also secretly sighed in my heart that Daqin's communication method is still too backward.
Although the speed of the flying pigeon is much faster than that of the fast horse, due to the pigeon's carrying capacity, it cannot record too many words.
Moreover, only one-way communication can be carried out, and interactive communication cannot be carried out in time.
If there is an ordinary radio station in the future, not to mention the distance of thousands of miles between Xianyang City and Luoyang City, even if it is directly synchronized with Persian County thousands of miles away, it will not be a problem.
Thousands of miles away, for radio waves, it is only a hundredth of a second, with almost no delay.
But Ying Yu can only think about it for the time being.
The Daqin Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering are still in their infancy in assimilating the technology of the steam engine. If they want to develop electric technology and then turn on the radio, there are still countless difficulties to overcome.
As for buying directly from the system mall, there is no need to even think about it, the outrageous price, nowadays Ying Yu can't afford it at all.
The technology line is not so easy to skip.
"It's been a journey all the way, thank you for your hard work."
"What do you think the Roman side is planning this time?"
The First Emperor looked away from the world map on the wall and said with a puzzled expression.
"My father doesn't know that Rome attaches great importance to road construction, and once boasted that all roads lead to Rome."
"It's just that their roads are considered the most advanced technology in Rome, but they are not as good as our old Qin Zhidao in Daqin, let alone the cement straight roads and railways."
"Roma once consulted with me, Daqin, about whether to purchase cement concrete technology, but was rejected by Erchen."
"At that time, the Romans also thought that this seemingly inconspicuous cement concrete should be very simple. After being rejected, they began to plan to develop it themselves, but after a long time of tossing, they did not come up with something that could be used."
"I guess I understand the gap between myself and Daqin, and I also understand that Daqin will not directly sell railway technology that is more advanced than cement. To change the routine, I want to ask Daqin to help me directly build it."
"And on the other hand, this railway is also a way for the Romans to show their goodwill to Daqin, trying to show their sincerity to Daqin."
"Combined with the information sent back by intelligence personnel, I estimate that Rome may increase its offensive against Carthage."
Ying Yu said in a deep voice.
"It seems that this Roman is also unwilling to give up!"
"However, before the opening of the Suez Canal, my Great Qin did have limited influence on Rome."
"But if you want to really launch an attack on Rome, it's best to wait until the railway is built to Persia and the existing territory is completely stabilized."
"Otherwise, even if the land of Rome is conquered, it will be a difficult problem to manage, and it will be difficult to ensure that there will be no accidents."
Ying Zheng glanced at the world map on the wall again.
One of the most important factors for Daqin's smooth integration of Persian County and Seleucus was that Seleucus's temper had been defeated by the Romans in advance.
Moreover, after controlling the prairie, the land territory of Daqin actually bordered Seleucus, and Seleucus had no resistance at all.
Coupled with the shock of hundreds of thousands of elite cavalry from the Protectorate of the Western Regions, the Seleucids did not dare to have other thoughts.
Rome, however, was different.
First of all, Rome is farther away from Daqin, and the vast Mediterranean Sea is separated from Persian County.
Even after the opening of the Suez Canal in the future, the Daqin Fleet can enter and have enough influence in the Mediterranean.
But if you want to really take down Rome, you must have the army to invest.
The Romans are not Seleucids, they will be obedient and obedient.
Even if he is not an opponent of Daqin in a frontal battle, all kinds of harassment are enough to annoy Daqin's army.
At that time, it is very likely that Rome will be owned in name, but it will not be able to gain much profit from Rome, or even lose money.
And because Daqin City is too far away from Rome, communication is really inconvenient, and there may be many accidents.
If you want to completely stabilize Rome, you must increase the proportion of Qin people to a sufficient level.
With the support of the people of the Qin nationality, the Qin army can be like a fish in water, and truly firmly control the land of Rome.
However, it is very difficult to immigrate to Persian County nowadays, let alone Rome.
If you want to immigrate on a large scale, it is only possible to continue to migrate to Rome after the railway reaches Persia and Persia County is completely in your hands.
"What the father said is true. My son thinks that the Romans saw this and proposed the method of using railways to paralyze our Great Qin."
"Anyway, even if Da Qin refuses to agree, for the Romans, there is nothing to lose?"
"And under the current circumstances, even if I, Daqin, see that Rome has ulterior motives, I don't have many good solutions."
"The most is to sell more weapons to Carthage, and also risk being intercepted by the Roman fleet in the Mediterranean Sea."
Ying Yu smiled faintly.
"It's only a few years, father can still afford to wait."
"Even if father can't afford to wait, isn't there still you?"
"Even without Rome and Carthage, as long as the current territory of our Great Qin can be completely stabilized, it will be enough to look down upon the past and the present."
"Moreover, the current Daqin is approaching its limit, and the development of the newly explored southern continent is quite slow."
"It's better to stabilize the existing land and take it step by step."
Ying Zheng smiled and shook his head.
"Father really appreciates it!"
Ying Yu said with a smile.
Generally, when the emperor saw the opportunity to annex the regional powers like Rome and Carthage and realize the unification of the world, he might be very passionate about it soon, regardless of whether it was done first or not.
Only Emperor Shihuang, who was able to keep calm all the time, could see the disadvantages of over-expansion, and chose a safer route.
It seems that there are only two choices of speed and slowness, but it is definitely not an easy task to make up your mind without hesitation.
It is even more difficult to keep the entire court without moving and fully implement the emperor's intentions.
"You kid hasn't learned anything else, but this bragging skill has improved rapidly!"
"However, something as good as the railway can't be cheap for the Romans, so just refuse it."
Ying Zheng smiled and waved his hands and said.
However, at the next moment, Ying Yu gave Ying Zheng an unexpected answer.
"Father, why did you reject Rome's request to build a railway?"
"My son thinks that I, Daqin, not only have to agree to help the Romans build the railway, but also have to make major repairs and special repairs, so we can do it well."
