For many officials in the Tang Empire, things have been going on a lot lately. But for those in high positions on the Eastern Continent, the days of fear are even more uncomfortable.
Almost everyone knew about the ambitions of the Tang Empire, and they had no doubt that the Tang Empire was planning to invade the Eastern Continent.
However, they hope that the invasion will happen within the next year or two, because they are really not sure how powerful the Tang Empire will be in two years.
If it were a cross-sea attack by hundreds of thousands of Tang troops, these empires would still think they were somewhat sure. They would block the Tang troops on the beach and let the Tang Empire suffer a defeat. Then they could go back to the Western Continent and rule the world from then on.
thoughts.
But if the Tang Empire develops on the Western Continent for a few years, no one knows what weird new weapons the Tang Kingdom will come up with...
After all, it only took the Tang Empire one year to develop a bolt-action rifle that surpassed the flintlock gun, and less than two years to develop explosive bombs and howitzers, and even developed a steam engine at the same time.
Within ten years they had developed trains, airships and even tanks, and within fifteen years they had made planes fly all over the sky. And in less than five years, the Tang Empire had developed something astonishing as ballistic missiles.
.
God knows if Tang Mo is given another two years, what fantastic ideas will the Emperor of the Tang Empire come up with? In fact, they don’t know that the Tang Empire has launched countless reconnaissance satellites and has begun to
Develop a worldwide satellite navigation system.
After all, they don’t know everything. They only know that the Tang Empire has a new investigation method, but they don’t know its location hundreds of kilometers above their heads...
Therefore, from the Ice Empire in the north of the Eastern Continent to the Dorne Empire in the south, everyone is waiting for the Tang Empire to come over, and they hope that the Tang Empire can come over as soon as possible.
Their planned attack direction for the Tang Army was Dorne in the southernmost part of the Eastern Continent. Here, the Dorne Empire prepared more than 2 million troops for the Tang Army, as well as more than 10,000 artillery pieces, 2,000 tanks, and a total of 3,500 various aircraft.
types of aircraft.
The reason why such a huge force was able to be assembled was thanks to the secret support of other countries. They provided Dorne with many jet engines, allowing Dorne to form a large-scale jet fighter force in a short period of time.
Although the pilots flying these planes still lacked training, Dorn I believed that his troops would be able to drive the Tang army fighting across the sea into the sea simply by relying on numbers!
Unfortunately, after thinking that they had made all preparations, the landing troops from the Tang Empire waited and waited but did not come.
The Tang Empire seemed to have forgotten that it was still in a state of war. Apart from using its fleet to harass the coast of Dorne, it had no preparations for cross-sea landing operations.
Those damn officials of the Tang Empire were busy managing the newly occupied land, and the troops of the Tang Empire were stationed in place and stood still.
Everything was developing towards the outcome that everyone least wanted to see. The Tang Empire was not in a hurry to engage in military force. On the contrary, Tang Mo maintained restraint and calmly handled all affairs at this stage.
When May ended and June came, the Tang Empire still did not make peace or take any action to start a full-scale war. They just quietly entertained themselves and became stronger day by day.
It's annoying, because when an empire is on the upswing, every day its enemies have to wait is a torture.
The current situation of the Tang Empire is very similar to that of China after entering the second decade of the 21st century. As long as they can resist and ignore the provocations of their opponents, the gap will be narrowed every day and they will have more chances of winning.
The difference is that the Tang Empire itself is a powerful party. It is not even in danger of being suppressed by its opponents. It only needs to develop slowly.
In July, the Tang Empire's fleet once again raided Dorne's Neverwinter Port and bombed the city of Neverwinter, causing huge economic losses to Dorne.
In August of that year, some crops began to be harvested in the northern areas where the Tang Empire resumed farming. The entire Tang Empire entered a state of harvest, and it seemed that no one was willing to ask about the so-called expansion war against the Eastern Continent.
In September, more and more areas began to enter the autumn harvest state, and the time to test the Tang Empire finally arrived. Many areas in Shu and Qin had harvests, because the Tang Empire provided new types of seeds, so the crops in these areas
Crop output is about 30% more than in the past.
This was achieved under the unfavorable circumstances of short cultivation time and farmers not being familiar with the new seeds. The increased harvest finally gave local farmers a sigh of relief.
A few months ago they were reluctant to use the seeds provided by the Tang Empire, but now they are eager to continue sowing and planting the crop seeds provided by the Datang Empire.
And when the agricultural subsidies from the Tang Empire were distributed to these farmers, local officials began to feel the strong folk customs of the locals.
Countless farmers gathered together and formed a sea of people along the road, which frightened the local garrison and almost thought that someone in their jurisdiction had rebelled.
Later I found out that these people were going to the government office to thank the officials of the Tang Empire. At first there were only a few people from one village, but who knew that there were more and more people, and some even brought various kinds of food and money.
The situation in Shu is similar. When agricultural subsidies began to be officially distributed, the people's morale was completely settled. In addition, the wages of factory workers were paid normally for three or four consecutive months, and the local residents began to cherish their own happiness.
Life comes.
For a time, the enthusiasm of civilians everywhere surged, and the protracted security war that Tang Mo was worried about did not appear. Instead, the locals led the way, allowing the Tang army to easily wipe out all the bandits and bandits entrenched in the mountains.
With the support of local residents and the blood and sweat of the orc laborers, the infrastructure of the Tang Empire is being improved at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Because costs were not taken into account, these huge projects were designed in units of hundreds of years. Someone once said, half jokingly and half to show off, that the Tang Empire spent more money on sewers than other countries' total infrastructure spending.
With the support of infrastructure construction, the Tang Empire began a new round of industrial development after occupying the entire Western Continent. The economic prosperity brought about by trade even made Tang Mo spend more and more money.
