Chapter 4 Customization (continued)
Everything Lu Yao did was to prepare for the coming turmoil, so Shao Xu's suggestion of Yanwu Xiuwen's method was absolutely impossible. Not only did he not know how to cultivate martial arts, but he also had to do his best to expand the army, train the army, and expand the army. These two diametrically opposed directions of governance, which are based on different judgments about the future situation, are indisputable and can only be proved by the facts. But he also knows very well that what Shao Xu said is not inappropriate in itself, just like the policy of "building a high wall and accumulating grain" in later generations, although it has no temporary benefits, it has its own long-term important impact.
He looked at the water system map drawn by Shao Xu with wine syrup, and carefully calculated how to strike a balance between military and civil affairs. Shao Xu obviously put a lot of effort into the design of this water conservancy project, and the painting is very detailed. Roughly speaking, weir ponds, ditches, and pools are densely spread on both sides of the Qiyi River, which is really not a small amount of work. If it can be completed, it will be enough to build Luochuan into a fertile land like the south of the Yangtze River. Perhaps, higher yielding crops can be introduced in the future to further increase the yield per acre. Relying on the renovated waterways, you can also build large tools such as waterwheels, water mills, water mills, water mills, and even ...... Hydro blowers? Hydraulic hammer forging?
Lu Yao slapped his head suddenly, water conservancy is only preliminary, and the use of water power is the key!
As a traverser, Lu Yao is shamefully not good at learning from things, because of his years of mediocre career in the workplace, he has been forced to return most of his science knowledge to the school. But after all, Lu Yao has also studied hard for more than ten years, and the basic scientific concepts are still a little. In the past few months, he had been running around and being trapped in Rongma, he had never thought of these aspects, but now that Shao Xu had proposed the water conservancy system of Luochuan, his eyes immediately lit up.
Although I don't know anything about the specific structure of these hydraulic machinery, I think about it roughly, it is not out of basic common sense such as gear transmission and potential energy kinetic energy conversion, as long as I talk about it myself, let the craftsman develop it specifically. Thinking of the tremendous role of water conservancy construction in agriculture, handicrafts, and manufacturing, and thinking of more grain output, higher labor productivity, and more sophisticated weapons and ordnance, Lu Yao almost jumped to his feet.
"Hmm...... Well...... Very good! "After fighting desperately countless times, is this the rhythm of finally starting the farming stream? After months of accumulation, it seems that it is about to be time to transform from quantitative change to qualitative change? Lu Yao was a little impatient, and his words were very urgent: "How much labor and how much time does this matter take, please Shao Gong draw up a statement as soon as possible!" The two of us planned carefully, and all the details were approved in advance, and after the autumn planting, even if it was implemented! ”
"Yes, please rest assured, General."
"Good! Good! Lu Yao responded, turned around and returned to his seat. Probably thinking too much in his head for a while, he didn't pay attention to the steps under his feet, and he almost fell to the ground with one foot of garlic.
Lu Yao's attitude fell in Shao Xu's eyes, but he was afraid that it was a little weird. One moment is still unhappy, and the next moment is elated, which is too undignified. Originally, it was a little inappropriate to discuss official affairs in the banquet, and the behavior was so frivolous, alas, it was really too long in the army, and he forgot the demeanor of a scholar? In normal times, Shao Xu was only afraid that he would say a few words like this, but at this moment, the joy shown by Lu Yao also deeply infected him.
Today, Shao Xu said that the three things of "managing the people", "employing the people", and "caring for the people" have not yet been said, and the first two things have been wholeheartedly supported and accepted by Lu Yao. Shao Xu, as a person who made suggestions, was immediately greatly encouraged. Since ancient times, the so-called monarchs and ministers have gotten along with each other, and that's it, Shao Xu said to himself.
He bowed his head deeply, to hide his excitement.
As the patriarch of the Shao clan in Anyang, Wei County, Shao Xu has read scriptures and history since he was a child, and has always had great ambitions. However, since his debut, Shao Xu has had many troubles and is often unsatisfactory. When he first joined the army for the king of Chengdu, he was offended by advising the king of Chengdu to send troops and Sima Yi, the king of Changsha. After the defeat of the king of Chengdu, Shao Xu went to Yanzhou to assassinate Shi Gouxi, but he was not allowed to reuse it, and only had to be granted the Qinshui order. This appointment is a joke, Qinshui is a county under the jurisdiction of Hanoi County, Sizhou, when will Yanzhou Assassin Shi appoint officials to Sizhou? In desperation, he was forced to abandon his official position and return home. And because of the background of serving under the king of Chengdu, the new king Cai who sat in Yecheng never took him seriously, so Shao Xu could only be a boring Tian Sheweng with peace of mind.
After the Battle of Yecheng, Shao Xu came to Lu Yao, one of which was to thank Lu Yao for killing the thieves and saving the children of many Anyang clans, including Shao Zhu, and such a great favor had to be repaid. The second is for the sake of his own future. Although he has experienced several ups and downs, he is only in his forties, and he is far from the time when he is willing to die of old age. The wonderful thing is that Lu Yao also served for the king of Chengdu, although the results were unbearable, but after all, they were also common, and he didn't have to worry about affecting his future wealth because of the black history.
Now it seems that Lu Yao's wings are growing, in addition to the military, government affairs are becoming more and more important, in this case, Lu Yao's credit and dependence on himself will only become stronger and stronger, which makes him feel that his dedication is worth it.
When Shao Xu was emotional, Lu Yao was surrounded by several soldiers who had no eyesight to toast and was entangled for a while. These are all good men who hang their heads on their belts and fight to the death, some of them are new subordinates of Daijun, especially not to be treated slowly, although Lu Yao is shallow, he still barely accompanies a few cups, and still praises Wu Yong.
When the soldiers were satisfied, Lu Yao picked up the wine jug and glanced in He Yun's direction, making him secretly pour most of the water into the jug. Fortunately, at this moment, the focus of the banquet had shifted to the square outside the lobby, and no one noticed He Yun's contemptible behavior.
At this time, dozens of bonfires were blazing in the square, and many soldiers were slightly drunk, singing and dancing. In the center of the square, I don't know who drunkenly sang the war song, the sound stopped the clouds, and the generals clapped their hands to the beat, chanting and harmonizing, hundreds of people sang in unison like the tide of the sea, the spirit was majestic and generous, and it made people wonder: "Tu Liucheng, it is difficult to be sincere." The more you go to Longsai, the road is long. The north is more than Gangping, but the sad wind is sour. He was awarded the head and climbed the White Wolf Mountain. Shenwu holds overseas, and there will never be trouble in the north! Shenwu holds overseas, and there will never be trouble in the north! ”
This is one of the "Propaganda Songs" composed by Miao Xi, a native of Lanling who was a famous minister of Cao Wei and the four emperors of Cao Wei. Emperor Wu of Wei conquered the troubled times, and his martial arts were superb, and there were many chapters praising martial arts in the "Drum Song", which are still sung in the army. This song is called "Tu Liucheng", which tells the feat of Wei Wu's northern expedition to Wuhuan.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, when the world was in turmoil, the world fell into a miserable situation, with white bones covering the plains, and no rooster crowing for thousands of miles. The Hu people in the north colluded with the separatist regime and coveted China and North Korea. Fortunately, Cao Gong sent troops to the outside of the fortress, and the army attacked Hu. In the twelfth year of Jian'an, Cao's army used Tian Chou as a guide to avoid the coastal road in western Liaoning, and Lu Longsai, who had been untouched for 200 years, attacked. Cao Gong personally led more than 10,000 elite cavalry as the forerunner, they opened mountains and filled valleys along the way, thousands of miles straight to Liucheng, the nest of Wuhuan, and finally broke tens of thousands of Hu people in the White Wolf Mountain, and killed Badun, from then on, the three counties of Wuhuan were determined, eliminating the hidden dangers of the northern border.
After a hundred years, listening to the strong and powerful singing voice and thinking of the martial might of Cao Gong's southern and northern wars, it is still surging, and it is difficult to help yourself. And the soldiers sang this song, undoubtedly putting Lu Yao's feat of Dingdaijun on a par with Cao Gong's desire, which is a heartfelt and undisguised praise.
"Shenwu is overseas, and there will never be trouble in the north! Shenwu holds overseas, and there will never be trouble in the north! Lu Yao chanted and sighed: "If you can be like this, I have no regrets in my life!" ”
