Chapter 240: Perfect-level post road
Liu Yi arrived at Yangping Pass, and in addition to Wei Yan, there was also Yang Song.
Or some people will think that people like Yang Song are shameless and traitors, but one thing is undeniable is that such people tend to be human beings and know how to make people comfortable, and Yang Song is such a person.
Wei Yan obviously hated Yang Song at first, but when Liu Yi saw Wei Yan again, at least Wei Yan was not too disgusted with Yang Song, and then, after a few days of living in Yangping Pass, Liu Yi also discovered Yang Song's ability, he was able to take care of Liu Yi's life very thoughtfully, and at the same time, he did not let Wei Yan feel that his status in this Yangping Pass was threatened.
There is an old saying in Huaxia, stretch out your hand and don't hit a smiling person, it is difficult to hate such a person who can make you live comfortably and greet each other with a smile all day long, but such a person is often the most dangerous, because he will hold all the negative emotions in his heart, and this emotion cannot be vented for a long time, and people's hearts will become distorted.
Now that Yangpingguan has been dedicated, Yang Song is not a stupid person, from the moment of dedication, he has no way back, at least in the matter of Hanzhong, his position can be trusted, and he can be regarded as his own person, but for such a person, Liu Yi chooses to stay away, and it is best that Liu Bei can not let him touch the core of power.
For Liu Bei, Liu Yi is not too worried, maybe in terms of military strategy, Liu Bei may not be as good as Cao Cao, but in terms of looking at people and employing people, Liu Bei is not Liu Yi's turn to teach anything, whether it is the control of his own emotions or his own skills in dealing with problems, Liu Bei is also the top in the world.
The defense of Yangping Pass, Liu Yi did not change greatly, but made a re-planning, military camp, dougong, twelve broken crossbows, the design of these things and the angle of the problem Liu Yi made a careful calculation, left the five craftsmen he brought for specific command and production, these five craftsmen are the old craftsmen around Liu Yi, Liu Yi's measurement method has basically been mastered, they stayed to guide and improve, Liu Yi rushed back to Jiameng Pass to continue to command the plank road project.
"Sir, are you in such a hurry?" Wei Yan sent Liu Yi outside the city gate, and looked at Liu Yi with some consternation, Liu Yi came to Yangpingguan this time, and he was ready to ask Liu Yi about some military issues, who knew that Liu Yi would leave after only staying for less than three days.
"Hmm!" Liu Yi nodded and said: "The plank road project is huge, and I don't feel at ease when people look at me in many places, so I have to personally supervise the construction." ”
Thinking of something, Liu Yi looked back at Wei Yan and said, "Yang Song, if you can't help persuade Yang Ang to surrender, he will send him back to the lord." ”
Yang Song is best at praising people, but Wei Yan's character is a little unruly, what is needed is not self-confidence, but precipitation, Liu Yi doesn't want Wei Yan to become Guan Yu's second, the second master has one, it's not a good thing.
"Don't worry, sir." Wei Yan nodded, Liu Yi's words still worked for him.
Liu Yi didn't say much, he got on the horse directly and rushed back to the construction site with the guards, although Pang Tong was proficient in arithmetic, but he specialized in the art industry, this kind of craftsman's thing, after all, he was still a layman, at least Liu Yi was not too relieved, you must know that most of these smart people have a problem, they like to make their own opinions, and they think they are right.
This plank road is Liu Yi personally ran all over the area from Jiameng Pass to Nanzheng, through detailed calculations and designs, Pang Tong can have different opinions, but without his own approval, the design drawings can not be changed.
Fortunately, compared to the design of the plank road, Pang Tong is more interested in the simple number symbols that Liu Yi made, in addition to supervising the work, most of the time has been studying this, after Liu Yi came back, he discussed many issues in this area with Liu Yi, and if it is promoted in the future, how to make it easier for people to accept, as well as the algorithm that Liu Yi came up with.
As a lieutenant general of the military division, Pang Tong's main job is to assist Liu Bei, so he did not discuss with Liu Yi for too long, and was recalled to the military camp by Liu Bei.
"How's Bo Yuan's road going?" Liu Bei looked at Pang Tong and asked with a smile.
"Nearly halfway there." Pang Tong said with a smile: "I don't know why, I feel that the team led by Shang Boyuan is a little faster than when Yueyang was built, and it can be repaired ten miles a day, so it can be completed in just one month." ”
The ability to hire allows everyone to have Liu Yi's skill level during the employment period, and the road construction is not from scratch, there is the previous foundation in it, plus Liu Yi hired a full 3,000 people this time, the speed will naturally not be slow.
"If it's all so fast, I can fix a few more in the future." Liu Bei said with a smile.
The road from Shuzhong to Hanzhong is easy to say, but the road from the Hanzhong Wangguanzhong Plain has to pass through the Qinling Mountains for eight hundred miles, even if the Yangping Pass area with the best road is also seven bends and eight windings, and the road is difficult to travel, Zhuge Liang formulated a strategy for Liu Bei at the beginning, and it was also to Jingzhou as the main attack, Yizhou as Liu Bei's rear, if you can lay a few unimpeded roads from Hanzhong to reach Guanzhong and Nanyang, whether you want to enter Guanzhong or attack Xiangyang and Nanyang in the future, you can send troops from Jingzhou and Yizhou at the same time, then Liu Bei's advantage is too great.
Of course, the investment in this is also an astronomical amount, Liu Bei doesn't even dare to think about it now, the road from Hanzhong to Jiamengguan is easier to walk, and there is the previous foundation, the road from Guanzhong to Hanzhong is not only more tortuous and difficult, but also more difficult than this side.
"Liu Yizhou's reinforcements have been sent the day before yesterday, our army has enough soldiers and horses, and now Yangping Pass has stabilized, and now the news can be released, so that the counties of Hanzhong will definitely vote, and then the lord will be able to surround Nanzheng on all sides." Pang Tong didn't comment much on this kind of thing, it was Liu Yi's business, even if he wanted to do it, he would discuss it with Liu Yi, and after experiencing the previous things, he didn't want to make any more ideas about it.
"Good!" Liu Bei also has this idea, this time into Hanzhong, it has been almost two months, except for a Yang and Chenggu, there is not much gain, now Yangping Pass is in hand, the situation in Hanzhong is reversed immediately, it is time to make the next deployment, it is best before the end of the year, Hanzhong will be successfully taken, then this trip to Yizhou, it is considered to have a foundation.
What's more, Hanzhong has an extraordinary significance for the Han family, Liu Bang was called the King of Han here, and the name of the Han Dynasty also came from this, for Liu Bei, he occupied Hanzhong, in a sense, his orthodox name is more sufficient.
In the next few days, the news of Liu Bei's occupation of Yangping Pass was not only shot into Nanzheng by Liu Bei's order, but also spread to all counties in Hanzhong.
Those county guards are naturally not so easy to be gullible, and they have sent people to the Yangping Pass area to inquire about the news, but Yangping Pass has been planted with Liu Bei's banner at this moment, since then, the wind direction in Hanzhong has been completely changed after precipitating more than a month, Shangyong, Fangling, and Xixian have successively called Liu Bei ministers and offered military power under the persuasion of Jian Yong and Sun Quan.
For a time, the nine counties of Hanzhong, except for Nanzheng and Xicheng are still in the hands of Zhang Lu, the rest of the counties have defected, Liu Bei has been accepting the report of the county officials for about a month, and at the same time rearrange the people and horses, and reintegrate the army, and replace the generals brought by themselves in the checkpoints and fortresses to garrison to guard against the possible attack of the Cao army.
And Liu Yi's plank road project was also successfully completed under the rush of this month.
Perfect Post Road: Safety +35, Swift +34, Comfortable +32, Extremely Strong +35, Poetry +33
"Not bad!" Standing on an arched bridge connecting two cliffs, looking down on the rugged valley below, Liu Yi has an urge to look up to the sky and sing, although compared to the entire land of Sichuan and Shu, this road is only a small part of it, and it is the lowest difficulty coefficient, but after a month, to build such a road in this era, it is definitely the top, and this sense of accomplishment still makes him feel indescribably happy.
Especially looking at the plank road that is firmly protected by the guardrail in the distance, he no longer has to worry about walking on it and falling, he tried it with the fate food team, it originally took ten days to travel, but now it only takes less than five days to arrive at Nanzheng Daying from Jiameng Pass, the speed is directly doubled, this is not only the reason for the attributes, his design is also indispensable, and many wronged roads have been made up.
I don't know if it's because of the influence of the road attributes, Liu Yi really has the urge to write a poem, but he just searched his intestines and scraped his stomach, except for the sentence that Shu Dao is difficult and difficult to go to the blue sky, he can't think of half a word to describe his mood.
Sure enough, I'm not that material, so it's better to use this thing less in the future.
"Sir!" A junior colonel hurried over and bowed to Liu Yi.
"What?" Liu Yi was about to have a half-celebration banquet with these craftsmen, and the moment he saw the little school, he felt a little tired in his heart, I was afraid that this celebration banquet would not be possible.
"The lord asks Mr. to rush back as soon as possible after building the plank road." The little school bowed.
"Do you know what?" Liu Yi frowned and said, you shouldn't be able to use yourself in the war, right? If you attack Nanzheng, according to the original plan, it is a little premature.
"This ...... I don't know what to do. Xiao Xiao smiled bitterly, he was just an errand runner, how could he know so many things.
"Okay, I'll explain." Liu Yi nodded and summoned a few craftsmen.
"I wanted to celebrate with you, but now that the lord is calling, I don't know what happened, and the rest of the money is distributed to everyone, which is regarded as an additional reward." Liu Yi smiled at these craftsmen who were recruited, these people are all craftsmen who have followed him since Mocheng, and now they have mixed some official bodies with him, they are not officials, they can only be regarded as officials, but for these people, it is already a great thing.
"Mr. is going to go, the business is important!" Several craftsmen hurriedly laughed.
Liu Yi nodded, didn't say anything more, and after explaining how to go back with these people, he followed the little school and rushed back to the camp.
