Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2339 The Shock of European Envoys

Half a month later, Fang Er received an order from the imperial court.

After receiving the order, he sent someone to call Jackson and the others.

In the past half month, Fang Er's people have been monitoring Jackson and the others. Although Jackson and the others don't like staying in the post house, they didn't cause any trouble, and they didn't even leave the post house.

Those European sailors outside the city were a little irritable, and once almost had a conflict with the Tang people, but they finally endured it.

In this way, it is not easy for Fang Er to do anything to them.

Jackson and the others were very surprised. Why did Fang Er call them here at this time?

When he came to the county government office, Fang Er explained the imperial court's will.

"I, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, was very happy to hear that you have sent envoys from Europe, so I ordered my official to send someone to escort you to Beijing."

"Your emperor has already received the news and responded?" Jackson was a little shocked. It's only been half a month. Even if they rushed, it couldn't be so fast, right?
Fang Er nodded: "That's right, my Son of Heaven, Tang Dynasty, has received the news, you pack up, and you can go to Beijing tomorrow."

"This...how is this possible?" Jackson still couldn't believe it. From the mouths of the Tang people, they knew that Chang'an City in the port of Jinmen was far away. How could they complete the information transmission so quickly?
He can understand the significance of this situation to a country.

In fact, when fighting a war, it is often an information war. If you have more information and your speed is faster, then you will be able to win.

However, regarding Jackson's shock, Fang Er obviously didn't intend to explain further. Although carrier pigeons were not a secret in their Datang Dynasty, he didn't bother to tell these European envoys.

"Stop talking so much nonsense, just send it to Beijing tomorrow."

After speaking, Fang Er immediately saw off the guests.

After Jackson and the others left the county office, their faces were not very good-looking.

"This Fang Er is so self-righteous. Does he think they are very powerful in Tang Dynasty? They treat us like this."

"That's right, Earl Jackson, are we just going to swallow it like this?"

"That's right, Earl Jackson, we can't just leave it like this. We have hundreds of soldiers and horses. Congratulations to him for Jinmen City. There shouldn't be any problem."

"........."

Everyone was chattering, but Jackson frowned slightly, and said: "Okay, shut up, we are here on the orders of the Queen to find out the reality of the Tang Dynasty, and we don't know the situation of the Tang Dynasty now. , so I couldn’t help but do it first, how we will further expand in Datang in the future, we must figure out the situation in Datang, and then make plans. I received the news and replied, their speed is too fast, we must figure this out, otherwise it will be very bad for us to act rashly."

Earl Jackson's prestige among the crowd was very high, and after he finished speaking, the others also shut up.

Earl Jackson glanced at them and said, "Tomorrow morning, we will leave the city and go to Chang'an, the capital of Datang."
-
The road from Jinmen to Chang'an City is very long and not easy to walk.

However, they can choose to take the water route. In this case, the speed will be much faster and more comfortable.

However, even by water, it is impossible to go all the way to Chang'an City.

After Jackson and others walked the waterway, they began to disembark and walk on land.

However, even if they want to go on land, they will have to go for more than half a month.

After they walked around like this, they became even more curious about the speed of Datang's news delivery.

During this period of time, they also investigated more or less, and knew that Datang did not use people to deliver the news, but after they heard this, they became even more strange. If they did not use people to deliver the news, what did they use?
If you walk by land, you have to pass through some towns. At this time, some towns are very close to Chang'an City, so these towns are very well developed and look very prosperous.

Even though it was already winter and the weather was getting colder and colder, these towns were still bustling like other places.

Jackson and the others would stay in these towns for half a day along the way to purchase some daily necessities. After seeing these towns, they were shocked. Why are the cities in Datang so prosperous?
Although their European countries are also very powerful, they still cannot compare with Datang in terms of prosperity.

And when they got closer and closer to Chang'an City, when they walked on those concrete roads, they were even more shocked.

"This... what is this thing, why is it so comfortable to walk on the road of Datang?"

"My God, my God, Datang is too rich, they are too rich."

"I don't know how prosperous Chang'an City, the capital of Tang Dynasty, can be?"

"........."

These European envoys walked all the way and were shocked all the way, and while they were shocked, they became more greedy for Datang. If they could destroy Datang in Europe, then everything here would be It will belong to their European country.

They can make this a piece of paradise for their European country, they can move their people here, and multiply here...

The more they saw the richness of Datang, the more ambitious they became.

After walking like this for about half a month, they arrived at Chang'an City on a sunny winter day.

The walls of Chang'an City are so majestic that it feels like a huge monster. After seeing this, the European envoys couldn't help but twitch their cheeks with joy. Their military strength in Europe is very strong, but the economy and so on The degree of prosperity cannot be compared with Datang, and the capital city is even more incomparable. The Chang'an City of Datang is twice as large as their European royal city.

Moreover, the solidity of the city wall is simply indescribable in words.

After they entered Chang'an City, seeing the heavy traffic here, and the prosperity of the eastern and western cities, their hearts were already so excited that they were about to explode.

"Rich, this Tang Dynasty is too rich, it's all money, it's all money, if we can plunder, our European country will become richer."

"These are all ours in the future, all ours, and no one can snatch them."

They looked at this Chang'an city as if they saw gold, silver and jewels. Their greed was growing. The seeds of their desire to destroy Datang suddenly germinated at this moment, and soon grew into towering giants. Tree.

If a thing is too valuable, anyone who sees it can't help but want to own it.

The current Datang is a valuable thing.
