    Yunbaobao showed off the fruits of his labor to his father very conspicuously, and a lobster-like creature appeared in front of Yunhao.  Except for the model, other parts are almost identical.

    When Yun Hao and Zhang Miaoke left, Yun Baobao's life was quite miserable.  Panda Xiaohua was put in solitary confinement, and Yun Baobao had to learn to write with the old Yan Zhitui who was fast in the coffin.  Dugu Wanwan is very strict and is not allowed to go out until she writes twenty big words every day.  Of course she wouldn't dare to skimp on Yun Baobao's diet, but Panda Xiaohua's was no problem.  As long as her homework is not completed, Panda Xiaohua will have to live a life of hunger and satiety.

    Listening to Xiaohua¡¯s miserable howl, Baby Cloud could only work hard to complete his homework.  Oh my God!  Twenty characters a day, and I have to listen to the guy with age spots all over his face.  It is said that he is the ancestor of scholars all over the world, and Yun Baobao really wants to turn him into a memorial tablet to enshrine him.  He had thought about it several times, but considering the fact that the old guy had become a spirit, Baby Cloud could only bury his hatred deep in his heart.

    Dad is finally back, and so is my mother.  The good days seemed to be back, and even though there were only three days left, Baby Cloud was as excited as the Chinese New Year.  During these three days, he can play with his father and do whatever he wants.

    "Daddy! Look at the shrimp mushrooms!" Although his hands were so painful from being pinched, Yunbaobao still showed off with the crayfish.

    Yunhao is a little confused. Crayfish are famous for their rapid reproduction and strong adaptability.  People all over the world are talking about it, fearing that this thing will take root in their own countries.  But when I came to China, this thing came to the wrong place.  If it is not artificially bred, it will definitely become extinct, and it is affectionately known as a shameful invasive creature.

    The harvest was not small, and a full basket of fish was caught in the mountain stream.  It seems like this thing has taken root in Datang!

    "There have been fewer fish in the pond in the past two years, but there are more of these things. They look strange, with big heads and small bodies, so the villagers don't dare to eat them. Even cats and dogs caught at home won't eat them.  . Look at the red bunch over there, it¡¯s all this stuff." The steward pointed to a place in the distance and said helplessly.

    "Oh, tell someone to build a pond and raise it." Yunhao looked at Xianbao's son, then looked at the crayfish in the distance and said with a smile.

    "My lord! These things are all over the mountains and plains, and you still want to keep them?" The steward thought that the owner of the house was crazy. These things called shrimp mushrooms can be seen in the water.  There were too many to count, and no one wanted to eat them.  The head is big and the belly is small, and the body is covered with a hard shell and not much meat.  Even poor families are unwilling to eat it. Besides, after planting potatoes and corn, there has been no famine in Guanzhong for many years.

    Many people now feed potatoes and corn to pigs as pig food. The old people say that those who enjoy the blessings now are committing sins.

    "What do you know? The Duke of the State said that he should be raised, so you just raise him, no matter what you say." Old Liu came over with a trembling head and gave the steward a slap.

    "No!" He didn't even dare to say anything back after being beaten. It is said that this man has been following the Duke of Guo in Jinyang.  Now I'm ninety, and I'm living like a fairy.  Even if you rape on the street, it is not illegal. This is what Tang law stipulates!  On Yuan Day last year, His Majesty received all the people in Tai Chi Palace.  If you are still angry and do something bad, you must not let his grandsons tear you apart.

    "The young people today are not as smart as they were back then. They are all used to having too many good times. When there was a famine in Jinyang, not to mention the strange appearance of this thing, even toads were eaten by people." Old Liu  The boss seemed very dissatisfied with the manager and kicked him again regardless of his ninety years old age.  The little son next to him held him up, so he didn't lose his waist.

    "Haha! I told you why I heard magpies chirping when I came out today. It turns out something good happened. Cheng Liu, hurry up and ask someone to go to our village and have them dig out a few acres of fish ponds to raise these things." Old Cheng laughed from behind.  The sound of hehe.

    "Grandpa Bearded!" Yun Baobao liked Lao Cheng very much and ran towards Cheng Yaojin with his little hands pricked.  As soon as he arrived in front of him, he was swung by Cheng Yaojin. The child let out a series of "chuck" and "chuck" laughter in the air. It was obviously not the first time he played this kind of game.

    Behind Cheng Yaojin were Qin Qiong, who was riding a horse, and Lao Niu, who was also holding the horse.  Not far away, the horse will be hung with hunting game.  There are everything from pheasants to hares, and even a half-size wild boar weighing seventy or eighty pounds.

    "You made a trip to the south and asked Feng Ang to return to the west. I heard that his sons were killed in Guangzhou City, and the city was already filled with blood. This is a beautiful move!" Qin Qiong dismounted,  He threw the horse's reins to the general.  After all, his body was broken, and just riding a horse made him sweat on his forehead.  Where is the shadow of Qin Shubao who once set foot on both sides of the Yellow River and beat Qin Shubao from 108 County in Shandong Province?

    &nThe wife is not dead either.  What are you worried about?  "

    The value of generals is reflected in war, and generals are very uneasy when there is no battle to fight.  Feng Ang's death caused the imperial army to change its direction.  The original military operation against Goryeo was temporarily suspended.  Generals who are extremely idle always want to drink some wine or something, and it is easy to get drunk while drinking.  Naturally, people tend to make trouble when they get drunk, so the civil servants came out.  They caught the military attaches by their sore feet and impeached them.  Even a veteran like Liu Hongji has been turned into a sieve by Yan Guan. Now he is hiding in the mansion in Chang'an, never leaving the door or taking a step forward, pretending to be a lady!

    The sense of crisis keeps generals awake at night, and the emergence of gunpowder weapons has left little room for personal bravery in war.  Now they don't even have to fight, which deepens their worries.  I am very afraid that Li Er will do something like flying birds, hiding rabbits, dead dogs, etc. Lao Cheng and Lao Niu are the representatives.  On the contrary, Qin Qiong, who was recuperating at home, was much more open-minded.

    "Listen to what you say, the court is going to use troops soon? Things in Lingnan are going on, and the court seems to be unable to mobilize manpower to fight another war!" Qin Qiong looked at Yunhao and said with some worry.  Fighting on multiple fronts is a taboo for the country, even though the Tang Dynasty is now full of national power.  But it is not as good as the Sui Dynasty in its heyday. The war tore the prosperous Sui Dynasty into pieces. If the Tang Dynasty made such a mistake, the end may be even worse than that of the previous Sui Dynasty.

    Li Er, like his cousin Emperor Sui Yang, is a man with great ambitions.  It's hard to say whether Li Er will make the same mistake his cousin made.

    "The army goes first without using food and grass, but now the army goes first without using the railway. As long as there is a railway, the Tang army can quickly reach the designated area. And the loss is very small! With the railway as a weapon, the army's logistics can be considered  To ensure the security. Now our Tang Dynasty railway is built eastward along Luoyang. It goes directly to Youzhou and Dengzhou, and the other one goes out of Chang'an and goes straight to Youyou." Yun Hao said with a smile.

    The map was all in the old guy¡¯s head. After thinking about it, Lao Cheng¡¯s eyes immediately widened.  "You mean, wherever the railway is built, His Majesty will use troops against it? To the west, to the right, does the imperial court want to use troops against Tubo?"

    For many years, Tubo has been a cancer on the Tang Dynasty.  These arrogant and naturally strong guys threaten the security of the empire's western border.  Just tens of thousands of people and animals are looted every year.  Li Er's temperament would never allow such a country to exist for a long time.

    The biggest problem in Tubo is not gas sickness (altitude sickness), but road transportation under harsh conditions.  The war in the northwest is not so much about war as it is about money and food.  The emergence of railways solved the logistical problems that had troubled Li Er for many years.

    Li Er, who had broken free from his restraints, would never let go of Tubo, his old enemy.

    "Tubo and Goryeo always have to be resolved. Now it seems that as long as the railway is built, the court will quickly mobilize troops, and there will always be a war. I just don't know whether the railway to the right will be built first, or the railway to Youzhou and  From Dengzhou.¡±

    "Of course it's right!"

    "Although Longyou is close, the terrain is complicated. Although Youzhou and Dengzhou are far away, the terrain is flat. Which road should be built first depends on the wishes of King Jiaodong."

    "It will take two years to pacify Lingnan, and it will take almost as long to build the railway." Yun Hao said to Lao Cheng with a smile.
