If we want to solve the crisis in Huaishang now and increase our resistance in the future, the first step must be to abolish the water and replace it with the sea, and make great efforts to change the situation of many disasters and difficulties in Huaishang.

Of course, it is not something that can be done in a day, and if you want the court to make up your mind, Liu Yu must prove one thing: the navy can stand within the sphere of influence of the Celestial Empire, and the world ranking is not counted, but it is invincible in the world.

This world should include the South Seas.

Only in this way can the emperor feel at ease.

It scared the emperor before, and although it made the emperor determined to build a navy, he also had a mind and took the canal as an alternative.

Thinking of spending money on maintenance, if the navy is defeated, it can still rely on the canal to dominate the north and south without division and separation.

Whatever the court does, it needs to be prepared in advance, and it can't be patted on the head.

Abolishing the sea is not just about shipping.

After the abolition of the water and the transformation of the sea, there is no priority of protecting the water transportation, how should the Yellow River be governed? What happens to the affected people on the ground? It all requires a scenario.

People can be killed, but the Yellow River can't be killed, and now the imperial court is under the thinking of protecting Caoyun, and there is no plan to govern Huanghuai under the premise of not protecting Caoyun.

The study of these programs will also take several years for the Ministry of Industry to be busy.

So I really have to mention this year. Neither the Netherlands nor Japan was a protracted war, and the two countries had a shogunate system and a company that was too far away from the mainland, both of which were quick victories, and these two things could be resolved within five years at most. Once these two things were settled, the emperor's strategy of keeping the canal in case of naval defeat could be scrapped.

In five years, it should be enough to outline a comprehensive plan for governing Huanghuai without considering Caoyun.

If it is not governed, Huaishang's ability to resist disasters is too fragile, and there is no place to relocate and cultivate, and it is far from the center of the industrial revolution in the textile industry envisioned by Liu Yu such as Songjiang.

Once something happens, this basin will be detained on the head of industry, and the ideology of Confucianism's conservative reaction will retreat to the ideology of the Ida system as the ultimate solution, and it will be necessary to fight back wildly.

Now it is this Tan Zhen who wants to put forward the idea of abolishing the Cao and reforming the sea to govern the Yellow River this year, and it also made Chen Qinghai pass the word, which means that this Tan Zhen wants to take the lead and be a pioneer, and let Liu Yu follow behind and cooperate.

The question is how to cooperate? When Chen Qinghai was leaving, what did Tan Zhen mean by what he said?

He talked about his doubts in this regard, Kang Buxian thought about it, and said, "The meaning of this Lord Tan is actually very simple. In this matter, he can only talk about the affairs of Jiangsu; Childe, the earl, can face the affairs of His Majesty's world. ”

"What do you mean by the things of the world? The affairs of the world are that Huaishang is a piece of rotten meat, and it should be solved ruthlessly. ”

"Does this have anything to do with Jiangsu? Of course it is. ”

"But, is the only place that suffers from the canal in northern Jiangsu? I am afraid that Anhui, Lunan and other places will also suffer from it. Jiangsu Jiedu makes the management of Anhui regardless of it? Don't care to get Lunan? ”

"There are some things that are not in their position and not in their politics. This Lord Tan is the envoy of the Jiangsu Festival, and I will ask the son, he, the envoy of the Jiangsu Festival, let the Caomi sea and arrive smoothly, so that the people can reduce the burden, the merchants will benefit, and the court will save money, is this a matter of duty? ”

Liu Yu nodded and said, "This is within its bounds. ”

"Is it his job to control the river?"

"Uh...... Yes and no, right? ”

This question is really difficult for Liu Yu to answer.

Jiangsu is not only southern Jiangsu, but also northern Jiangsu.

This Tan Zhen is the envoy of the Jiangsu Festival, not the envoy of the Southern Jiangsu Festival.

Is it his duty to manage the river?

It stands to reason that this is counted.

However, there is also a river governor in charge of this matter, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is not counted.

Kang Buxian reminded again: "As a provincial envoy, it is natural to put forward a proposal that is obviously beneficial to the province, and it is a responsibility. ”

"How long can Jiangsu Jiedu be enabled? In the future, if he is not the envoy of Jiangsu Festival, how can he mention this matter? If he is transferred to Xijing, or will he guard the southwest in the future, and the Huanghuai Canal cannot be beaten by eight poles? When the time comes, he can only wait for others to mention it, and he stands in line behind to support it, waving his flag and shouting, but he can't mention it. ”

"But Childe is different. Childe, the envoy of the Whale Sea Festival, is a make-up number. The real identity of the prince is that Uncle Ying and His Majesty's cronies Lang Guan, who trained the navy. Childe is too deeply involved in the matter of shipping, and he will not be able to get out of it in the future. ”

"Abolish the sea and change it, even if it is implemented, the Jiangsu Jiedu envoy will only cooperate. In the future, it will not be this Lord Tan who will fight in the ring with those who support Cao Yun, but you, Gongzi. ”

"I think this Lord Tan wants to remind the son: as the eagle uncle, Lichen's abolition and reform of the sea is not just a matter of money and grain, but a long-term benefit that is conducive to Huanghuai's water control and Huaishang's stability."

"Of course, if something goes wrong in the future, this pot will have to be carried by the son."

When Liu Yu heard that he was about to take the blame again, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "This is strange." Then Tan Zhen also supports the abolition of Cao Cao and the change of the sea, why doesn't he have to take responsibility? But I have to bear it? ”

Kang used a somewhat vulgar analogy.

"Abolishing the sea is like a woman's moon. The court mentions it every three or five days, no more than him, no less than him, no one will really care and hold a grudge, because it is a war of words. Only Childe is different, this shipping matter, Childe can really do it, and it has already passed the stage of fighting a war of words. ”

"It is precisely because the abolition of the sea is the general content of women's menstrual affairs. He was a pioneer, and the people behind him couldn't keep up, so he was like a fart in the court, and as soon as the smell was gone, it was pulled, and no one cared. If he hits the vanguard, and Childe follows behind and waving the flag and shouting, it won't be a fart. ”

Liu Yu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't do it, I can't afford it." The matter of abolishing the water and changing it to the sea is not at all on the sea. Yes, I proved that shipping is possible, but I can't solve the problems on both sides of the canal. If there is a problem with the shipping, I can take care of it; But the pots on both sides of the canal, I don't want to carry them, and I can't carry them. ”

Kang Buxian also smiled, looked at Liu Yu and said, "That's right." If Childe really wants to do this, he has to take a detour. Otherwise, the big black cauldron has to be carried on the son's back. ”

"Therefore, although Childe supports it, it is not the same as what Master Tan Zhen Tan wants Childe to do. Rather, it is necessary to speak out all the possible evils before they are done. ”

"What do you mean?" Liu Yu was stunned for a moment, listening to Kang Buslack's meaning, this is to let himself stand in the perspective of opposing Caoyun and talk about the possible impact of the reform?

What is this? Sort of providing the opponent with a bunch of shells first?

Kang Buxian said with a smile: "My own people say that bad things can become good things, which is called long pain is better than short pain, the merit is in the present generation, and the benefit is in the future, it is nothing more than a short period of pain; When others say it, it makes you think it out and don't know the depths; If others don't say it, they don't say it themselves, if something happens in the future, it will bring disaster to the country and the people, and it is not impossible to carry a black pot as big as Wang Jinggong. ”

"In other words, Childe supports the abolition of Caoyun and the reform of the sea, but Childe must also write out the disadvantages of the Caoyun faction before the Caoyun faction."

"Only in this way, once the policy is set, can it be implemented for a long time, and when there are problems, it will not be settled. Otherwise, once something happens, the responsibility will all be on the shipping party. ”

Liu Yu frowned and said, "I support it, but I still have to say the disadvantages first?" As far as the situation of the court is concerned, you don't understand, if you want to do something, you have to overkill. You said yes, but it's hard to convince; You're just saying all the bad, isn't this a self-imposed obstacle? ”

"Besides, there are a lot of things that happen in a year, right? No one can deny that some floods have a lot to do with the canal, right? ”

Kang Bushu said: "Things are things, and truth is truth." A position is a position, and facts are facts. It's not the same thing in the court at all. ”

"Since the founding of this dynasty, it has been transported, and there is no sea transportation. It's like the sun hanging in the sky, there may be a drought, but everyone feels that it is not the sun's fault, but inevitable. Shipping is as good as it gets, it's like changing the sun, and once something happens, it's all the fault of the new sun. ”

"There are a lot of problems with Caoyun now, and the flood is also very related to Caoyun. But now there is a flood, it is a natural disaster, even if it is caused by a canal, it is a natural disaster. If the Cao Yun is abandoned and the Huanghuai is controlled, then if there is a disaster, it will be a man-made disaster. ”

"What is a day? Since ancient times, there is heaven. The canal has been around since ancient times, so if you don't do anything, it's a natural disaster. No one is responsible for natural disasters. ”

"Childe really wants to make ......"

Kang Buxian stopped suddenly, took a deep breath and said, "If Gongzi really wants to do it, he will either wait for natural disasters or wait for chaos!" ”

"It is up to people to plan things, and it is up to heaven to make things happen! If there is no catastrophe, if the Yellow River does not break, this thing cannot be done; If no one is chaotic, the Huaishang is eroded, and the canal is impassable, this thing will not be done. ”

"The so-called conspiracy is to tell the pros and cons, and if there is a catastrophe in the future, what kind of disadvantage can it become? At that time, the disadvantages of Childe will be meaningless, and only the benefits will remain. ”

"Lord Tan wants Gongzi to stand in the perspective of Uncle Ying and think about the long-term for Dashun, thinking that this will convince His Majesty, of course, he also thinks that this pot has to be carried by Gongzi. But it's useless to say so much, I don't believe that no one in the DPRK knows that Huanghuai is the most likely place in the world to be troubled in the future. ”

"So, just wait for a great natural disaster. This can only be done by a catastrophe that completely cuts off river transportation and causes chaos in Huaibei. Therefore, if Gongzi wants to support it, he must first talk about the disadvantages of abolishing the sea and changing the sea, so that this matter will not be successful. ”

"Is the matter of Huaibei just the matter of the canal and the Yellow River? Land annexation, more people and less land, the southeast and northwest are all crowded places, and there is nowhere to immigrate. ”

"Sooner or later, it's better to be chaotic sooner rather than later, if you want to be chaotic early, you have to have the canal, and continue to let Huanghuai flood every year."

"Otherwise, in case of the abolition of the sea and the change of the sea, a natural disaster...... Hehe, can the son know the Song Dynasty's "Wandering People"? It's not the future of the son, but maybe since then, no one will dare to mention the matter of abolishing the sea and changing the sea. ”

"Uh......" Liu Yu was a little speechless, waiting for natural disasters, waiting for natural disasters, if the Yellow River does not break in ten or twenty years, and the canal has no chance to be interrupted, wouldn't this cauldron be burdened by the industrial revolution and lead to the bankruptcy of the small people?

It sounds like Tan Zhen wants to really do something, and if he does it himself, even if he supports it verbally, he can suddenly list the shortcomings of the waste and the sea, which is like verbal support and a stab in the back.

has achieved such a status as an official, and he has been mixed in the court for several years, and there is not much morality left. It's easy to have no friends in the DPRK and China.
