Chapter IX Jianshan Customs
Old man Cai agreed to the marriage, not that Gongsun Kang could have a relationship with Cai Wenji immediately, there are still some processes to go through in the middle.
He wants the concubine he is marrying, which is different from directly snatching Diao Chan into the mansion. According to the current custom, Cai Wenji's status is greater than Diao Chan's.
The marriage has been decided, and everyone is not in the mood to continue the party. They dispersed.
Only Diao Chan glanced at Gongsun Kang fiercely: he was kidnapped by Gongsun Kang, and no matter how many concubines Gongsun Kang marries in the future, he is the one with the lowest status in law.
Gongsun Kang also knew that he was at a loss, and rubbed his hands in a sneer. "What, Diao Chan." Let's go to your room and check if you're doing well. ”
Diao Chan's face was red, and he gave him a blank look. "The sky is blue, does the husband want to prostitute and prostitution? ”
Gongsun Kang said seriously: "How is it Xuan and obscene? I was ordered by my father to carry out the great task of passing on the lineage! ”
Picked up Diao Chan, kicked open Diao Chan's door, strode in, and carried out a very sacred work.
Although the establishment of Shanhaiguan was supervised by Liu Yi, it was impossible for Gongsun Kang to completely let go.
He took the craftsman battalion to the Jieshi to inspect the terrain in person, and also put forward his own opinions when the craftsmen drew the drawings. He suggested that Shanhaiguan build a horse-faced wall, so that no matter where the enemy climbed the ladder from, the protruding horse faces on the two sides could be shot with crossbow arrows. And the topography of the mountains on one side and the sea on the other. In essence, there are only two walls that need to be defended. Therefore, these two walls need to be made very wide, so that a large number of soldiers can be placed at the same time for defense.
The Shanhaiguan in later generations is known as "the first pass in the world", the city is 14 meters high, 7 meters thick, there are four main city gates, a variety of defensive buildings. Including the "first pass in the world" arrow tower, Jingbian building, pastoral camp building, Linlu building, urn city.
Gongsun Kang said: No one can be missing. Let's build one 14 meters high and 7 meters thick! The arrow tower should be built more, and the urn city should be expanded. On the side of the sea, we also stretched out a section of the wall into the sea, and even the sea was defended.
Liu Yi looked at Gongsun Kang and became more and more complicated, and couldn't help coughing: "What, eldest nephew, you are so whole, you can't build it in half a year." ”
"Centennial plan, quality-oriented!" Gongsun Kang rarely took it seriously in front of Liu Yi: "It's still the same old saying, let's not rush!" If it doesn't work for half a year, it will be 1 year; If 1 year doesn't work, 2 years. Be sure to make this the first pass in the world! ”
Half a month later, Gongsun Kang, who had arranged the follow-up matters, was ready to return to Liaodong.
Before leaving, the great poet Gongsun Kang wrote two poems, asking the craftsmen to carve them on the stone and stand next to the city gate after the completion of the Shanhaiguan Pass, so as to show their talents.
I saw Gongsun Kangtian shamelessly wrote:
View the sea
The east is adjacent to the Jieshi to view the sea.
The water is surging, and the mountains and islands are sturging.
The trees are overgrown and the grass is abundant.
The autumn wind is bleak and the waves are surging.
The journey of the sun and the moon, if out of it;
The stars are splendid, if out of it.
Fortunately, even ya, the song is a song.
I am protecting cultural heritage, Gongsun Kang shamelessly thought: Once the Shanhaiguan Pass is completed, Cao Cao will no longer have the opportunity to face Jieshi in the east, and this Guancang Sea will not be born again. I have to make this poem come to life, I am a good person, a good person who rescues cultural heritage.
Now that Guan Canghai has finished copying, Gongsun Kang doesn't mind copying another copy:
Beidaihe
The heavy rain falls on Youyan, the white waves are surging, and the fishing boats outside Qinhuangdao are held.
I don't see a single ocean, I know who is going.
The past is more than a thousand years, benevolence and virtue whip, and there is a legacy in the east of Jieshi.
The bleak autumn wind is now again, and the world has changed.
Liu Yi is a rough man, and he can't see what is good about these two poems. It's just that after the completion of Shanhaiguan, you have to pass through Shanhaiguan to and from Liaodong. As a result, a large number of literati and writers saw these two poems carved in stone.
No one is not admired from the bottom of their hearts, and those who appreciate it think that Gongsun Kang is a masterpiece of a generation and has the world in mind. In the poem, he expressed his political ambitions, eloquence and enterprising spirit, and was impressed by Gongsun Kang's broad mind, broad mind and grand ambition; Those who slander Gongsun Kang have to admit that he is a hero, even if he is a butcher with the blood of the Hu people on his hands, he is also a well-written butcher.
Liaoxi County has been pacified, and the next step is to govern. At present, Liaodong strategists and generals are wearing many positions. The only one with relatively few positions is Cheng Yu, who only has the title of military sacrificial wine. Therefore, Gongsun Du named him the county guard of Liaoxi County.
The guard of a county, of course, has to be sealed by the emperor, but in Liaodong, who cares about him? Cheng Yu happily took office.
His first task was to build two roads. One leads to Xiangping, Liaodong, and the other leads to Shanhaiguan. The level is an inter-county road, and it can run eight carriages at the same time.
Liaodong has already allocated 250,000 people to build three inter-county roads, and now Jianshanhaiguan will send tens of thousands of people. Therefore, the construction of Liaoxi County really can't spare manpower.
Cheng Yu came to see Gongsun Kang, and he said: "Liaoxi has just been annexed to Liaodong, and it is not appropriate to oppress them. We plan to use a cash-for-work approach to recruit a portion of our staff. However, the total population of Liaoxi County is only 80,000, and the gap must be very large. ”
Gongsun Kang knew that he still had the following, so he asked Cheng Yu directly: "Does Zhongde have any good solutions?" "A good strategist not only asks questions, but more importantly proposes solutions, which is the basic duty of a strategist.
"I propose to increase the plundering of the population of Goguryeo and Samhan." Cheng Yu is really a qualified strategist.
After three years of plundering Goguryeo, Liaodong has accumulated 5,000 Goguryeo Eight Banner Army, all of whom are elite soldiers who are loyal to the Han people and Gongsun Kang.
After taking Wuheng in Liaodong, according to the information obtained in advance, Gongsun Kang selected 5,000 herdsmen who were proficient in equestrianism and archery as soldiers, of which nearly 1,000 were condor archers. Gongsun Kang paid them salaries, and the monthly salaries were higher than their income from herding horses and sheep, so they did not have the resistance of the Han Dynasty when they drew troops in Wuheng in the past. Gongsun Kang also told them that every time they fought, the spoils of war were distributed, and they were distributed equally according to the rules of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry. At this time, the Wuheng cavalry were overjoyed, feeling that they had finally met the Ming Lord, and they all swore to serve Gongsun Kang.
At this time, people's psychology is so simple, whoever can let him eat well, he will work for whom.
Cheng Yu's suggestion was: "Send the Eight Banners of Goguryeo to plunder the population of Sanhan, and send the Eight Banners of Wuheng to rob the population of Goguryeo, so that their national sentiments can be fully taken care of." ”
"Good" Gongsun Kang adopted his advice, Cheng Yu deserved to be the top strategist in the Three Kingdoms era, and he even understood psychology.
As a result, the suffering of the Samhan people and the Goguryeo people intensified, villages and tribes were destroyed, and groups of people were driven to Liaodong to participate in the construction of highways. And they work for nothing, they don't pay a penny, and if they don't perform well, they don't even get enough to eat.
There is no doubt that in the hearts of the kind and simple people of Samhan and Goguryeo, Gongsun Kang, who caused all this, is a demon. Countless people cursed him for dying early, but unfortunately he was alive and well.
Recently, all kinds of etiquette have been completed, and Gongsun Kang has a feast, and Cai Wenji has been married to the mansion in a beautiful manner.
On the wedding night, the red candles flickered, and Gongsun Kang's happy laughter and Cai Wenji's low wheezing and irrepressible moans could be heard in the distance.
