Chapter 112: Then Let's Dispatch!
Since ancient times, on the land of China, there are many floods, the most famous is the story of Dayu's water control, which can be seen.
It is precisely because of this that in the Central Plains, drought resistance has not been taken seriously, which has also led to countries having certain experience in flood control.
But for the drought fight, there is nothing to do, and can only watch the corpses scattered all over the field.
……
There is a lot of water on the land of the Central Plains, from the supermarket in ancient times, even if it lasts until the Warring States Period, the climate and landscape pattern of the land of China is still humid, hot and rainy, and the rivers are vertical and horizontal.
In such an era of farming, the flood is the big problem, which is also the beginning of a series of water control such as Li Bingdu Jiangyan, Zheng Guoqu, and Dayu.
And whether it is Wu Anjun Bai Qi or Bing Immortal Han Xin, they are all good at using water.
This is only because of the special era, in which the water system was developed, far from being comparable to later generations. Even if future generations want to follow suit, they can't do it.
This is the reason why Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, finally settled on the Three Qins and achieved the imperial cause, while Liu Bei could only favor one side.
In addition to the soldier immortal Han Xin, the biggest reason is Han Shui.
During the Warring States period, the vast ocean of Dachuan Juze was endless, floods occurred frequently, and the people who worked hard, fished and hunted were wiped out at any time, so that they had to watch the sky and eat.
Because of this, all the surrounding areas of the big water are sparsely populated, and they have developed for a long time to form wild mountains and forests.
A little gushing out of the depths of Yinggao's memory, in the Xianyang Palace, thoughts continued.
He knew in his heart that in the sparsely populated agricultural age, too much water was not beneficial.
Just like the Chu State in the south, Daze is connected to the heavens and rivers, and just one Yunmengze is endless.
Especially in the annexation of Wuyue, the state of Chu almost unified the south and occupied half of the land of China.
However, although the state of Chu is large, the land of rich foundation is only between the Jianghuai and the Yangtze River, and the national strength is not as good as that of the Central Plains. It was because of the severity of the floods that the land of abundance became desolate.
The thought flickered in his heart, Yinggao stood up, walked to the map of Daqin in the side hall, and said: "Father, the Guanzhong Plain, the Longxi Mountains, the Hexi Plateau, the two counties of Bashu, Hanshui South County, and Hedong Hanoi, this is the approximate division of the territory of my Daqin."
"After the completion of Dujiangyan, Shu County has completely become a natural granary, and the flood has completely disappeared, becoming the capital of Daqin Xiong in the world."
The long sword in Ying's hand slashed through some areas, and he paused at Qin Wangzheng, and said: "On the land of Guanzhong, there are known as nine rivers and eighteen pools, and there are eight hundred miles from east to west. ”
"Weishui, Jingshui, Fengshui, Luoshui, Bashui, Chanshui, Zhushui, Weishui, and Waterlogging are criss-crossed and flowed through the counties."
"Niushou Pond, Xipi Pond, Crane Pond, Pan Pond, Ice Pond, Zhu Pond, Lan Pond, Chu Pond, Mi Pond, Kuai Pond, Lang Pond, Jicao Pond, Danglu Pond, Hongpi Pond, Dongpi Pond, Weipu, Meipi, Qiaohou Pond Eighteen Ponds are dotted around."
"Here, the Zhou people, who started with agriculture and finally swept the world, also created our Qin people, but my father has always had two major troubles in Guanzhong, so that my Great Qin can't enrich the world."
Hearing this, Qin Wangzheng's eyes flickered, and he said: "The white hairy beach and the dry fields near the water are difficult problems that Shang Jun has not solved. ”
Regarding Qin Wangzheng's words, Ying Gao was noncommittal, smiled, and said: "That's because Duke Xiao died young, and Shang Jun lost his strongest support, otherwise this problem would have been solved long ago." ”
"During the reign of King Zhaoxiang, Prime Minister Cai Ze proposed: Weibei has more than 40,000 hectares of dry land and more than 20,000 hectares of Baimaotan beach. It should lead Jing out of the mountain, condescending to the south to irrigate the pass, relieve the drought, and drain the saline. ”
"Father, the Jingjing Project, it can be said that since the time of Shang Jun, the Great Qin Imperial Court has had such an idea, but due to many practical problems, it has been delayed so far."
"Now after the coordination of Wen Xinhou, Zheng Guo, Li Si and others, plus 200,000 people, it has today's scale, and once it is dismissed, it will fall short."
……
Yinggao knows in his heart that sometimes one thing is like this, once you give up and want to pick it up again, it will not only be hard work, but also more difficult.
Therefore, he advised the Qin Wangzheng not to destroy the century-old foundation of Great Qin because of temporary difficulties.
……
After being silent for a moment, Qin Wangzheng turned around, looked at Yinggao, and said, "The diversion project is very important, and the situation in Daqin is in crisis, how feasible is it in your opinion?" ”
"Father, although Wen Xinhou's character is not very good, it is undeniable that his vision is still good, since he chose Zheng Guo, there must be his reason."
"And for the river canal Cheng Li Si, my father has also seen it, which is enough to show that this Zheng Guo is very talented, and once the diversion project is completed, it will be on a par with Dujiangyan."
……
Ying Gao kept organizing the language in his mind, but he knew that after this great drought, there would be a catastrophe that would truly shake the foundation of Great Qin.
That was one of the few criticisms in Qin Wangzheng's life, so Yinggao had already begun to take precautions at this time.
He knew in his heart that Qin Wangzheng's character was too strong, and the incident did not happen, at this moment, Ying Gao had nothing to do except knock on the side.
"Hmm."
Nodding, Qin Wangzheng, as the king of a country, naturally knows the seriousness of what Yinggao said, once the diversion project is over, it will be a huge help to Great Qin.
"Now that the drought has swept the world, except for Sanchuan County, the rest of the major counties have a great impact, and because of the policy of attracting people to Qin."
"At this stage, more than 100,000 people have been pouring into all parts of Daqin, and in addition to Sanchuan County, grain will definitely become out of stock."
"What are your thoughts on this?"
At this time, Qin Wangzheng had already made a decision in his heart, but when he saw Yinggao, he still wanted to test it, and after so long, he still hadn't reached the bottom of Yinggao.
Qin Wangzheng wants to be clear and have high ability.
Hearing this, Yinggao's expression was solemn, and almost at the moment when Qin Wangzheng opened his mouth, he sensed Qin Wangzheng's choice: "Now, I have no choice but to send troops!" ”
……
It's not that Yinggao has no other solution to this matter, but it is certainly not as quick as war and exciting.
At this moment, a war is more powerful than any action.
Therefore, at this moment, Yinggao let go of the insistence in his heart, the beginning of the war, it is destined to be impossible to end easily, and even for some of his layouts, it will have a huge impact.
Only, he had no choice!
Yinggao knew in his heart that no matter how he jumped, he couldn't change the general trend, and the only thing he could change was small things.
In the face of the Great Qin Monarch and the decisions of the Great Qin military, he could only obey.
