Chapter 215
After Qi Cheng finished talking about the Dayechuan battle, he couldn't help but sigh. In the early Tang Dynasty, there were many famous generals, but they still couldn't get any advantage at the hands of Tubo.
If someone has low military power, the country will be destroyed in an instant.
……
The wind outside has died down a lot, but Qi Cheng doesn't have to go to work today, so he plans to have breakfast and then go to the library to sit down. He feels that he should recharge himself.
But before he left, Zhou Lu came over first.
"Boss Zhou, how come you have time to come here?" Qi Cheng threw him a box of expired milk. "Is there nothing going on in the restaurant?"
Zhou Lu laughed and said, "It was windy this morning, so let's ask the guests to come tomorrow. There are only a few individual customers at the hotel, so I don't need to go there myself."
"I came here to take you to a fun place, something you definitely haven't thought about until now."
Qi Cheng was also attracted by his words, so he put on his clothes and followed him. After driving for about thirty minutes, they finally arrived at a park.
The flowers in this park are arranged very beautifully, like a small garden, and look very different from the greenery in ordinary parks.
But no matter how beautiful it is, this is just a park.
"Zhou Lu, you need to give me an explanation." Qi Cheng pressed on Zhou Lu's shoulder, "If you can't explain it clearly, I will be rude to you."

Liu Che liked the layout of this park very much and thought the flowers in it were particularly beautiful. I wonder if there is a way in later generations to make flowers more beautiful.
"Your Majesty, this is a park in the future. Everyone can play in this garden..."
Looking at the minister who made the memorial, he certainly knew what it meant. Wasn't it just that they wanted to build such a free park in the Han Dynasty?
But he felt that this was unlikely, because at that time everyone was tied to the land and had no time to play in the garden.
As for wealthy families, they usually have gardens at home and will not go to any free parks.
Ming Dynasty
Empress Ma also praised the park, saying it was unique. Zhu Yuanzhang suggested that since Empress Ma liked it, he could build one for her in the Imperial Garden.
"Imperial Garden? Didn't you turn it into a vegetable garden? Although these flowers are beautiful, they can't be eaten. You should keep them to grow something edible."
Qing Dynasty
Qianlong smiled and shook his head. The park was well built, but the details were still a bit rough and not as good as his current gardens.
"Go to Changchun Garden. The autumn scenery is quite beautiful."
……
Zhou Lu quickly begged for mercy, saying that seeing the flowers was not the main purpose. Today he was brought here to take a plane and overlook the surrounding beautiful scenery, which was also an experience in life.
"Fly...plane?" Qi Cheng asked in surprise. He knew that a new park had been opened here, but he didn't know that there was also an airstrip where small planes could take off.
This is so fashionable!
When he arrived at the runway, what caught his eye was a small plane. Qi Cheng didn't know what model it was, but he thought it was very cool.
"Qi Cheng, you go up first." Zhou Lu pushed Qi Cheng up, "See how it feels."
This plane was different from what Qi Cheng had imagined. For example, the engine noise was still very loud, and it was shaking slightly. However, when it was in the air, the scene below was very spectacular.
The blue sea stretches as far as the eye can see, a few small fishing boats are wandering in the waves, and rows of waves on the shore are hitting the breakwater on the beach.
Looking through the window to the other side, the usually less famous island looks somewhat majestic.
The plane in front turned around and slowly landed on the runway.
Zhou Lu quickly ran over and asked what it felt like to fly in the sky.
"It feels good. Go up quickly and take a look at the beautiful scenery around you."
……
Daqin
Qin Shihuang was so amazed that his eyes widened. He wondered if people in later generations could actually fly into the sky. How was this airplane made?
Daqin... Daqin is probably difficult to build, but we have to let the Mohists record it. One day we will be able to build it.
The Mohist school was in an uproar. Legend has it that the first generation of them once created a wooden bird that could fly in the sky, but they were unable to reproduce it.
Now looking at the airplanes of later generations, they wonder if they built something like this back then.
That's impossible. They simply don't understand the various technologies involved.
Tang Dynasty
Li Shimin felt that he had underestimated the technological level of later generations. They were actually able to create something that could fly in the sky and allow ordinary people to play with it.
That means the government should have more advanced ones.
"This plane is a powerful weapon against the enemy. If it carries a few explosive shells, what kind of cavalry can kill it?"
"Yes, it's also good for reconnaissance. This way, we can find the main force of the Turks wherever they are hiding!"
"Haha, those grassland barbarians would probably kneel down when they saw the plane."
"Ha ha ha ha."
Qing Dynasty
Emperor Qianlong came out of the pavilion. He also wanted to take a flight and experience the feeling of flying in the sky.
"Let the people from the Ministry of Industry take a good look and see if they can build one. This aircraft can not only be used for fun, but it will also be of great military use. I remember there were records of it before... Let them give it a try."
The Minister of Works was completely stunned when he received the imperial edict. How could the Qing Dynasty produce this? Even the foreigners had no news about it.
“What… should I do?”
The Minister of Works went to the palace helplessly and replied that the Qing Dynasty could not produce it at all and they didn't even know the principle behind it.
There are indeed records from the previous dynasty that some people seemed to have tied several large firecrackers to the top and exploded in the air. If he dared to let Qianlong do this, he would probably have to die first.
"Waste! All of you waste!" Qianlong threw a jade snuff bottle. "How can someone like you be the Minister of Works? Go back and hug your children."
"Whoo."
……
Zhou Lu came down from the sky, and he was even more excited than Qi Cheng. He felt that this plane was really fun. If it was his, he would definitely not have to worry about traffic jams when driving home.
"Qi Cheng, let's go get a pilot's license. Then we can buy a plane and go out for fun."
"forget it."
You haven't even figured out how to reverse a car yet, and you're trying to learn how to fly a plane. And to fly a plane, you have to apply for a flight route. You can't just fly a plane whenever you want.
Besides, how much does an airplane cost? Even if you sell both of them, you still can’t get one back.
"Stop dreaming here. It's almost time for dinner. Let's find a place to eat. Brother will treat you."
"Then I won't be polite."
