Chapter 10 [Lonely]

Four hours later.

Yanque Pass.

A pass two hundred kilometers south of the imperial capital.

There are cliffs on both sides of this pass, as dangerous as high mountains.

Yanque Pass stands here, like a tall and tall giant, resisting all disturbances from the outside world and loyally guarding the imperial capital two hundred kilometers away.

The city wall is made of cement and steel bars and is about ten feet high.

Really easy to defend but hard to attack.

On this day, when the soldiers stationed on the city wall saw a steam train coming from the direction of the imperial capital, emitting raging black smoke and making an unpleasant noise, they were very frightened inside. But they still tried to remain calm on the outside.

"I am an elite soldier of the empire. I cannot be afraid or embarrassed."

Many soldiers comforted themselves in their hearts, but they also quickly informed the Yanque Pass guard.

The steam train stopped in a town five hundred meters away from Yanque Pass.

This town is not a town at all.

It is a garrison that can accommodate 100,000 troops.

"Is this really Yanque Pass?"

The Chancellor of Finance got off the train and looked at this huge military camp in disbelief, and his eyes fell on the magnificent city wall in the distance.

The three characters "Yanqueguan" are placed there.

The guard general of Yanque Pass also rushed over immediately. When he saw the people getting off the train, he quickly stepped forward and saluted.

"The general will fight in vain. See Your Majesty, my emperor will live for ten thousand years, and my empire will live for ten thousand years."

"Bai Aiqing is exempt from the gift."

Yang Yu looked at the Yanque Pass guard in front of him with a satisfied smile on his face.

This speed is very good.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"It's rare for me to come to Yanque Pass. My dear, please show me around and let me see how majestic the lion is guarding the southern gate of our Star Empire."

"promise!"

To be honest, Bai Zhan, the guard of Yanque Pass, really did not expect that His Majesty would come to Yanque Pass in person for just a steam train test.

But he did not hesitate and quickly led the emperor and ministers to the school grounds.

The adjutant got his signal and hurriedly went to beat the drum and gather the army.

When Yang Yu and the ministers were led to the school grounds, torrents of water came from all directions.

Quickly form a square array.

The entire school grounds was silent.

No one spoke.

"Bai Aiqing has organized the army well and is worthy of being the mainstay of the younger generation of our Star Empire."

Yang Yu looked at the mighty master in front of him with satisfaction, his eyes full of smiles.

"Your Majesty!" Bai Zhan quickly brought a large iron trumpet to the emperor.

"Good afternoon, soldiers."

Taking the big tin trumpet handed to him by Bai Zhan, he walked forward with the big trumpet.

"Your Majesty, ten thousand years."

There are portraits of the emperor in every military camp, so it is no exception for these soldiers to know the emperor.

Shouting in unison, the clouds in the sky stopped and retreated.

"Thank you for your hard work, soldiers."

"In the service of the Empire."

Yang Yu put down the loudspeaker in his hand and walked towards the huge military formation.

"His Majesty……"

Seeing the emperor's actions, several ministers were startled and quickly spoke to stop him.

But before they could say anything, they were interrupted by waves of hands.

"Could my soldiers be able to harm me?"

Yang Yu glanced at this group of people.

The soldiers of the Royal Forest Army who were about to follow the emperor also stopped in their tracks.

Seeing the emperor walking in front of him, a famous soldier puffed up his chest, with enthusiasm and excitement in his eyes.

After serving the empire for a lifetime and being able to see the emperor so close, their death was worth it.

"Young man, why are you so thin? Is your general depriving you of food?" He stopped in front of a thin-looking soldier with a steel gun in his hand, and asked kindly.

"I want to report to your majesty that the general has not deprived us of food. Whatever we eat, the general eats."

The little warrior said.

"In that case, why are you so thin?"

"Your Majesty, when I was born..."

"Then eat more meat. How can such a handsome young man protect his family and country if he is too thin?"

Yang Yu patted the young warrior's shoulder and continued to watch his heroic soldiers.

After seeing the soldiers in the military camp, Yang Yu also went to Yanque Pass in person to visit the soldiers on duty.

We cannot just visit the soldiers in the military camp and ignore the soldiers on duty.

Likewise, he also checked the logistics.

Overall.

He was quite satisfied.

The military's standards are all implemented in accordance with his original regulations.

After visiting Yanque Pass, it was getting late, so they did not stay here longer, but returned to the imperial capital.

…

the next day.

But the news of the steam train, which can travel thousands of miles and never get tired, has been spread by the Empire Daily News.

The news was like a hurricane, with the imperial capital as the center and spreading out to the surrounding areas.

After the Finance Minister saw the capabilities of the steam train, he immediately discussed the construction of the railway with the Prime Minister.

After half a month of discussions, the charter was finally adopted.

Invite investment and let businessmen contribute money to build the railway. The empire will get 60% of the profits and the businessmen will get 40%.

The industrial age is unfolding with great vigor.

Various factories were also established in this great era.

But no one dared to think wrong. They recruited and paid people according to the empire's standards.

Secret deduction?

Sorry, this is the era of imperial power, and the emperor stands on the side of the people.

You'd better not be discovered. Once discovered, you may be imprisoned or even have your home confiscated and your family exterminated.

With the development of science and technology, the times advance.

The people of the destroyed countries gradually began to identify with their current identities.

Compared with previous countries, the various welfare benefits of the Star Empire are simply not that good.

The remnants of those countries still wanted to struggle, but they failed.

Nearly a hundred years of reform and industrial development.

The Star Empire has also reached the peak of the first industrial era, which is further and deeper than the first industrial revolution of the earth.

Steam ironclads were also built, and the Star Empire began to explore the vast ocean and explore the true meaning of life.

Over the past hundred years, the Star Empire has gradually developed brutally in the direction of an infrastructure maniac.

The city wall, the epitome of the old era, has completely collapsed in this vigorous industrial era.

Many veterans also followed the changes of time and fell on the road of serving the empire.
