Chapter 166: I won't let you fight alone

Just now in the court, when the little emperor was talking about the governance of the Yellow River, Wang Pu almost jumped out without holding back, Your Majesty, this is pure nonsense and a fool's dream.

Fortunately, Wang Pu is not a fool, he knows that he shouldn't jump out by himself at this time, His Majesty is dealing with the affairs of Fan Zhen, Wang Pu and Bao Junli.

When it comes to harnessing the Yellow River, mentioning the two rows of mountains piled up on both sides of the Yellow River, and mentioning going around to catch slaves, it is to boost morale.

Those who don't understand can easily be bewitched by the words of the little emperor.

Therefore, after Wang Pu was ready to disperse the dynasty, he also asked to see the little emperor no matter what, and talk about the matter well.

But he didn't expect the little emperor to leave him directly in the imperial study to discuss matters, and took the initiative to mention the Yellow River flood to him.

"Your Majesty can mention the matter of governing the Yellow River in the court, which shows that Your Majesty is worried about the people of the world, and it is the minister's dereliction of duty, and he has not come up with an effective way to completely solve the flood of the Yellow River, and I ask Your Majesty to condemn it."

Guo Zongxun waved his hand and smiled:

"Wang Aiqing is only afraid that I have misunderstood what I mean, I said those words in the court, it is just a strategy, in order to boost morale, to make the people of the Great Zhou believe that under the rule of my Great Zhou Dynasty, people will win the sky, these words, it is okay to fool the people, you are all my important ministers of the Great Zhou, don't break it for me."

Guo Zongxun made a joke, and the atmosphere in the imperial study room was much more relaxed.

The fact that the little emperor can talk to them like this shows that the little emperor still regards them as trustworthy people.

Wang Pu smiled bitterly:

"Your Majesty, in fact, the prevention of the autumn flood of the Yellow River this time is indeed a stupid method, and there is indeed no better way to strengthen and raise the river embankment for a while."

"I know, so I want to discuss with you, when I mention this matter, I have to tell Marshal Zhao first, this time Marshal Zhao's second brother My uncle-in-law has made another meritorious service."

After speaking, Guo Zongxun also winked at Zhao Kuangyin twice.

Zhao Kuangyin has been inquiring about the whereabouts of his second brother recently, but the little emperor has been hiding it too strictly, which made Zhao Kuangyin think that the little emperor had found out that he was antipathetic and was ready to take Zhao Kuangyi as a hostage.

In fact, Guo Zongxun really likes Zhao Kuangyi's talent, and even Cao Bin will learn and use the theory of commanding operations in the formation now.

The drawing of detailed maps of the entire territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, presided over by Zhao Kuangyi, is progressing smoothly, and many maps of important military areas are now sealed as the highest military aircraft.

"Thank you Your Majesty for your praise, if the minister's younger brother can do his part for Your Majesty and the Great Zhou, it will be thanks to Your Majesty's kindness, and the minister will be honored."

"Wei Banban, go get the map."

"The minions obey."

Wei Zhongxian quickly brought a map and hung it in the imperial study.

"As you know, there are no big lakes in the north, so the ability to buffer and discharge floods is very low, and the people on both sides of the Yellow River depend on the Yellow River for their survival, but they have to face the catastrophe of the Yellow River's overflow."

"The reason why the Yellow River's riverbed is getting higher and higher is because of the accumulation of sediment, and the core problem of controlling the Yellow River is how to deal with this sediment."

"The upper reaches of the Yellow River to the middle reaches of the Yellow River are not yet part of my Great Zhou, but I have decided to encourage and reward the people on both sides of the Yellow River to plant more trees, and according to the survival rate of the trees, they can offset the agricultural taxes they should pay."

"In non-war periods, planting trees and fields can be treated as subjects of military training."

"Merchants, who are willing to pay to subsidize the planting of trees, can receive the sales privilege of the corresponding amount of state-embargoed materials from the government."

"At this stage, if you want to stop the flooding of the Yellow River, you must give it an outlet and break a little to make it safe."

"Therefore, I decided to move all the people here, and use this place as a flood discharge area in the middle reaches of the Yellow River.

Wang Pu saw the place pointed by Guo Zongxun, the geographical location was indeed suitable, and he couldn't help but nod and said:

"Your Majesty is so bold, the Yellow River bursts from here, rushes out, and when it flows here, it will be blocked by the mountains, and then turn around and flow here, and finally form a Daze here."

Fu Yanqing and the others secretly smacked their tongues, the little emperor's spirit is really good, comparable to Emperor Qin, and the Han Wu and Tang Sects are a little unsightly.

In other words, during the time of the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty, it seemed that the Yellow River did not flood often, and the sense of urgency to control the Yellow River was far less than it is now.

"Wang Aiqing is right, I just want to make a northern Daze come out here, Wang Aiqing, the following problem is that I am a little worried or suspicious, how to block and open this Yellow River breach?"

Wang Pu smiled:

"Your Majesty is the right person, the minister still has some experience in this regard, please arrange a special person to go here to investigate, choose the right location to set up the gate, one gate is not enough, then set up several or even a dozen gates, dedicated to flood discharge and sand discharge."

Guo Zongxun shook his head, Wang Pu's idea is good, his experience is actually from the jack gate of the city gate and the gate on the river, but this is the flood outlet of the Yellow River.

Water, a drop of water can pierce stones, and a flood can destroy everything, so it should not be taken lightly.

"My idea is different from Wang Aiqing's, the Yellow River is in the flood season every year, here, digging a dam to drain the water, and after the flood season, it is manually blocked, and ordinary gates cannot be blocked at all during the flood season."

Wang Pu smiled:

"Your Majesty, the minister is willing to make a military order, if it is not possible to build a gate that can be used for flood discharge and sand discharge, the minister is willing to come and see you."

Guo Zongxun also smiled:

"I will make a decree to ban the military order, whether it is an official or a general, if you do well and win, you will have your own court's reward, if you don't do well, you will be defeated, you will have your own court's punishment, everything has a law, and the military order will not only not play its due role, but will disrupt the implementation of the law and discipline."

Even Fu Yanqing, including Fu Zongxun, deeply agreed with Guo Zongxun's move.

"Your Majesty."

Guo Zongxun pulled Wang Pu and said earnestly:

"Wang Aiqing, it is the right way to stay useful, and do things for the people of Dazhou more for me."

Wang Pu was grateful, knelt down and bowed again:

"The minister thanks His Majesty for his compassion, and I ask Your Majesty to believe that as long as all the people downstream are relocated, the minister will definitely build a hub here that can control the water potential of the Yellow River."

The Yellow River stretches for thousands of kilometers, and it cannot be preserved by one point.

However, this sentence is to boost the spirit, if bragging can make the officials lift the spirit and make the people excited, why not blow him.

Guo Zongxun also has mixed feelings, it seems that people will conquer the sky, but if there is no ambition to conquer the sky, how can human beings continue to progress.

Looks like it's time to get the cement stuff out.

Cement, in the era of 2020, is already the most basic building material, and the production method of cement, Guo Zongxun knows a general direction.

It is enough to know about it, including blast furnace ironmaking, since Wang Pu has such ambitions, Guo Zongxun thinks that he will provide an idea, and the rest will be left to those outstanding talents in this era to explore and study.

"Wang Aiqing has this ambition, I am very relieved, Wang Aiqing rest assured, I will not let you fight alone."
