Chapter 943: Idealistic Fallacy

This goes to Liang country, from the western border of Xianguo to the eastern border of Liang country, there is no 8,000 li of land, 4,500 li of land, and there are four roads that can be walked.

One takes the North Sea to bypass the Changsun coastline, and the other enters the inland river from the mouth of the east coast of Changsun, and goes out of the west coast through the inland river or turns into the Liang country, this waterway is actually the fastest route, faster than the land route to cross the east and west, but the Changsun country usually only allows ships below 1,000 stone to pass, and does not open to large ships above 1,000 stone.

It is not that the inland river is narrow, the water depth is shallow, and the big ships cannot enter the estuary, but the Changsun inland river is a shortcut to the West Sea by bypassing the North Sea, and the strategic position is very important.

The alliance between the Jin state and the eldest grandson was largely for the sake of this inland river, with which large ships of more than 1,000 stone could be opened to sail and transport troops westward to the kingdom of Qi.

At the same time, the closure of inland rivers forced foreign merchant ships to go to the open sea and dock at their ports, thus forming an economy of setting up cards and blocking roads to collect fees.

Due to the backwardness of shipbuilding technology in the early days, most of the ships could not go to sea, and their self-sustaining power was limited, and there were many winds and waves in the North Sea, so they could only go ashore once at a port to go ashore when they went around the coast, and each time they docked, they would inevitably have to replenish and repair, and even pay taxes.

For this reason, of course, the countries are also opposed, more than once there are princes for the interests of the sea from the land to hang the eldest grandson, every time at this time the eldest grandson will sacrifice "who supports me, I open the inland river to whom" conditions, and then the situation immediately reversed, when the grandson of the Northern Expedition of the Sun Kingdom, it was such a big loss.

It is precisely because of the huge interests of river and sea trade that although the Changsun Guobu Army is a piece of, the water army is harder and more ironclad, and it has always dominated the North Sea. Of course, this is already the old yellow calendar a few years ago.

The other two roads are both land routes, one of which crosses the Changsun, and the other is to cross the river by boat from Ganfu, land at Dekang, and go to Liang by Weiguo.

To defend the country, the plains are the mainstay, and the road should be easier to walk. The southern part of Changsun is dominated by hilly landforms, and the counties of Sangnan, Shutian, and Qingtian are still in rebellion, and it is very risky to cross Changsun by land.

In addition, he offended Zhang Jie yesterday, and the eldest grandson of Bao Qi detained him for life, and even killed him. This is undoubtedly an outcome that all countries are happy to see.

In this way, it is obviously not very reliable to go to sea on land and water, Chen Qu's fleet just went to sea half a month ago, and it is too late to recall at this time, it is difficult to guarantee what moths will come out of the sea halfway to the sea, and then people will be buried in the sea, and the ghost knows who did it.

The safest thing is to go to defend the country, at least Bailiyan died in the country, which would immediately incur the revenge of King Xian, which was obviously the result that the Jin Kingdom wanted to see the most.

The cabinet meeting ended in a hurry as soon as it began, and the early dynasty resumed immediately, and the first news announced was that Bai Liyan sent Liang Guo, and the reactions of all parties were mixed as soon as the news came out.

Regarding this trip, Bailiyan also considered three things, one of which was that the road to Liangguo was far away, and the time would not be too short, even if it was smooth, it would take half a year or even half a year to say the least, and the operation of the country during the absence must be basically stable.

There will always be a day when he will die, and one day he will be gone, and all departments of the court must have their own opinions and norms, and they cannot rely on him.

In the last 20 years, the system has become a serious dependence, especially for scientific research projects, because of his advanced cognition and knowledge of the principle of knowledge, common sense in the eyes of modern people is a great technology at the moment. It is precisely because of his predictability that he seriously interferes with the development of technology.

Therefore, both government departments and technical departments must adapt to the days without him.

Second, this period of time is bound to be very long, and it is different from the six years of the Southern Expedition, when the interests were small, and the external enemy was greater than the internal trouble. Now the interest cake is getting bigger and bigger, only Sanhou is the one who shares the cake, but there is a group of people looking at this cake, and there must be people who are ready to move during his absence, whether it is the Jin State or the powerful forces, just give them a chance to show their faces.

Third, the timeliness of the chess piece of Qiguo does not seem to be as great as originally estimated, and Weiguo did not take the increase of Jin Guo's troops in Qiguo in his eyes, it should be that white phosphorus and conscienceless cannon have given the Weiguo too much chicken blood to make them feel good about themselves. Coupled with hundreds of thousands of horses for them to call on, it will be very convenient to transport the infantry troops.

Knowing that Bai Liyan went to the Liang Kingdom, and was to defend the country, and avoid the eldest grandson, this in itself is very revealing. Secondly, after learning that Baili Yanxi went to Liang State, Wei Envoy Lu Jia should come to the door again to lobby, and this matter can finally finalize the peace agreement between the two countries, so that Wei Guo can rest assured that the Northern Expedition will attack Changsun.

In the following days, Bailiyan successively convened the Department of Taxation, the Department of Tax Inheritance, the Sinong Mansion, and the Qianfang Mansion to coordinate the work for the next six months with Sima Mansion and Taiwei Mansion.

On the fifth day of the seventh month, news came from Jiangdong County that an earthquake occurred in Yaocheng, Zhouya County, Jin Kingdom, with heavy losses and ominous casualties, which verified Zong Botai's calculation of the sudden "natural disaster" in the Jin Kingdom before. On the same day, Bailiyan asked Zong Botai how he calculated this result, and Zong Botai's words made Bailiyan think about it carefully.

The popular understanding of Zong Botai's original words is roughly that everything has a certain probability range.

Taking earthquakes as an example, there is an approximate range of earthquakes that occur on the planet each year, and each earthquake level also has a frequency range, so the total number of large and small earthquakes in the world each year fluctuates back and forth in a range of numbers relative to the period. Other natural disasters, when human activities are not yet frequent, also have their periodic laws.

Before the Jin earthquake, thanks to the popularization of advanced agricultural technology, the wind and rain were smooth for many years, in a sense, it had already violated the natural laws of the current space, and severe natural disasters were bound to occur to offset the accumulated energy beyond the current time and space.

The accumulated "energy" here is not quantifiable energy such as electricity, wind power, and mechanical force in the traditional sense, but generalized energy in the abstract sense.

The agricultural wealth and national strength accumulated by the Jin Kingdom for a long time are precisely because they are too good in the wind and rain, and they have accumulated wealth and energy that do not belong to the current time and space for a long time, which has damaged the balance of other living beings.

For example, insect plagues seem to be human agriculture suffers, but it is not human beings who have stifled the living space of pests, and it seems that there are fewer pests, but there will always be periodic outbreaks, and it seems that they can never be killed.

At first glance, it seems to be quite absurd, and the donkey's lips are not the horse's mouth at all, but if you think about it, there are some connections, and it is true that he Bailiyan can't understand it at all.

Of course, this kind of theory must be a fallacy in modern times, and I make a lot of money, so will I also be punished? But if you put it another way, maybe it makes sense.

If all this money is black money, blood money, you say you won't give it to the police? Even if you escape, you know that your children and grandchildren will not prosper.

Therefore, it is not valid from a scientific point of view, but often many cognitions are subject to the constraints of the technology of the times and cannot be measured by scientific quantitative indicators. No one knows the system of technical theories a thousand years from now, just as the ancients would not have known that modern people can fly airplanes and watch television.

Perhaps it is precisely because of the inability to understand the inevitable causal connection that people who can really master prediction have extraordinary thinking ability, and abstract algorithms that are difficult for ordinary people to understand.

Before the Jin earthquake, according to Zong Botai, there had been several signs of aura and timing, and he himself did not know what kind of natural disasters would occur.

Taking a step back, assuming that the territory of the Jin Kingdom is vast, and there is a great possibility of earthquakes and even small-scale other disasters occurring at the same time throughout the country, Zong Botai is not credible when he says that there are natural disasters, because there is no uniqueness.

However, if the Jin State can be used as an excuse to achieve political goals, only the losses caused by the earthquake in Yaocheng in Zhouya County are sufficient, so Zong Botai's calculation is still relatively accurate.

From this, Bai Liyan thought that his crossing had led to the industrialization of Xianguo in just over 20 years, and the scientific and technological level of weapons and equipment had been fully rolled out, which was not a huge change in space energy.

The drought in Xianguo, the rebellion of Fengyangjun, the crusade of the Jin Kingdom, the outbreak of the black scarf, the existence of the Jin Xuedi people, Baili Yan could not escape, and the appearance of the armpit people, wave after wave for more than 30 years, wave after wave, wave after wave, the harm was greater and greater every time, and he was implicated in it.

In a sense, it was precisely because of his appearance that there was some hedging in space-time.

However, from the point of view of materialist dialectic, the existing natural things will not change their essence because of the distortion of subjective conditions.

But now the question is, he Bailiyan has changed some of the undefined physical "essence" of being empty at the moment, assuming that he did not appear in this space before, will the planet be the current situation? Obviously, this cannot be assumed. It's the same thing that you would have existed without your parents.

On the morning of the eighth day of the seventh month, Bailiyan was invited to Luhou's mansion as a guest, but unexpectedly, Luhou finally fell in love with Baili Caiyun. Bailiyan originally planned to be two of the three daughters of Tuixiang, Xuan, and Caiyun, but she never thought that she would only fall in love with Caiyun in the end, and after a long time of calculation, Lord Qiao paid for his daughter.

Bai Liyan did not finally agree to this matter, so she returned to her house to discuss with Lord Qiao. As soon as I returned to the Hou Mansion, I saw Wei Guo's car and horse parked outside the mansion, which was Lu Jia's car.

It has been several days since the news of the envoy Liang Guo's condolences came out, and Lu Jia did not come immediately, but delayed for a few days, apparently making other plans.

The previous talk with Zhang Jie, even if Lu Jia didn't know what he was talking about, he should be able to guess from Zhang Jie's recent words and deeds that the talks had collapsed, and now that he knows that Bailiyan is about to travel, he should immediately come to do the final lobbying, in order to reach a final agreement as soon as possible, so that Bailiyan can meet with Wei Xiang on the way to defend the country, and finally finalize this time.

Now that it has been delayed for several days, one has to suspect that Lu Jia must have other plans.
