Chapter 276: Seeking to Conquer the Net
When Liu Yun saw the mineral information of Yuewang County, his eyes suddenly became round.
The mineral resources here are extremely rich, with more than 200 million tons of various types of iron ore, including 600 million tons of pyrite and 130 million tons of hematite. In addition, there are 200 million tons of coal and peat, and 190,000 kilowatts of hydropower resources, as well as rare deposits of lead, zinc, bauxite and magnesite, each amounting to millions of tons, including tens of millions of tons of copper.
You can't really look at the surface.
Copper, in ancient times, is used to make weapons and copper money, and China's copper ore reserves are not much, so it has always been a scarce material, to the rise of modern industry, copper is more widely used, especially in the military industry is the most scarce, such as the most common bullet, a grain may not be nothing, but once it reaches hundreds of millions of units, the demand for copper is not a small number.
With the development of the Western Sichuan Arsenal, Liu Sanye even turned his hair gray for the copper ingot, which can be regarded as a solution to the urgent need.
The seemingly barren Yue Network Autonomous Region, is so rich, it is really unexpected, by the way, in the 21st century, why did you not see Ganluo Iron and Steel, or Yuexi Metallurgy, etc., let the brain show it clearly, it turned out to be caused by the difficulty of mixed smelting of multiple minerals.
Commander Liu was overjoyed, it is very troublesome to mix multiple ores, for ordinary steel plants, it is similar to chicken ribs, a little carelessness in smelting, there will be a variety of secondary products, taking Hanyang Iron and Steel Plant as an example, at the beginning of the construction of the plant, just the problem of acidic ore, it has been tossed for decades, and it has been slow to smelt qualified cannon steel, not to mention the mixed minerals, I am afraid that it will scare a bunch of steel experts to death.
However, the problem of multi-mine mixing is not a big deal for ant robots.
These alien high-tech products, which are themselves miniature smelting furnaces, can also take into account prospecting and mining, which is really terrifying and sharp, if the number cannot keep up, all steel mills will face the problem of unemployment.
But no matter how advanced the machine is, someone has to use it.
Therefore, if you want to open a steel plant in Yuewang County, you must first consider the human factor, fortunately, Liu Yun has Yin Qinlan, the "Chuankang Bai Xiaosheng", who is not only well-read and memorized, familiar with many ancient books and secret records, but also knows the local situation in Yuewang County well.
Yuewang County has a long history, and was originally named after the establishment of a county across the water.
At the time of Dayu's water control, this place belonged to the Liangzhou region, one of the nine states, and belonged to the southwest Yi land in the pre-Qin period. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty set up Yuewang County, of course, carefully calculated the jurisdiction of the county, most of them belonged to the adjacent Yan County, the Northern Zhou Dynasty was changed to Qiongbu County, the Song Dynasty was Qiongbu Chuan, the Ming Dynasty set up Yuewang Wei, the Qing Dynasty was Yuewang Hall, and the Republic of China was changed to Yuewang County.
Yuewang County is the starting point of the "Southwest Silk Road", located at the eastern edge of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the northeast foot of the Hengduan Mountains, located in the southwest of Sichuan, and the north gate of Liangshan, the development of economic and people's livelihood is quite prosperous, the county has a population of more than 10,000, and the county area is 5,000 square kilometers.
The territory of the county belongs to the mountainous terrain, mainly in the Hengduan Mountains, the mountains and rivers are longitudinal in the north and south, the terrain is high in the south and low in the north, the altitude is generally above 1600 meters, the highest can reach 4791 meters, and it belongs to the mountainous subtropical climate.
Since the Xinhai Revolution, the Sichuan army has been engaged in a series of civil wars, resulting in the Sichuan provincial government's control of the Daliangshan region and its various prefectures and counties.
Even though the idea of "democracy and republicanism" has gradually taken root in the hearts of the people, the folk beliefs in Yuewang and other places are extremely scattered and complex, and people who believe in primitive religions abound, and there are not a few people who believe in Buddhism, Taoism, and Catholicism.
When Yin Qinlan said this, Liu Yun was also very vigilant and sober, it seems that his plan in advance was still too optimistic.
Since it belongs to the self-government of the local residents, and slaves and primitive religion prevail, it is clear from the stubbornness of the civil forces in this place that they are ready to engage in construction, not any social reform, and how to turn these obstacles into assistance is really a thorny and big problem.
Seeing Commander Liu, who was walking around and frowning, Yin Qinlan smiled and confidently gave someone advice, "Xianggong, you are really smart, you were confused for a while, didn't you do a good job when you first returned to West Sichuan County, and if you come down again, you will ensure that everything is done."
Speaking of this, Liu Yun was also a little embarrassed.
It seems that Liu Ebei was really right at the beginning, such a random display of miracles, it is really a "clever sacrifice and obscenity", there is a suspicion of deliberately demagogizing the people, as long as it is a clear-eyed person, there is no clue that cannot be seen, it seems that this kind of troubled thing should be done as little as possible in the future.
Yin Qinlan also understood Commander Liu's concerns and hardships, so she had to think of another way.
Second Mrs. Yin deserves to be a female Zhuge , stood up and walked a few steps, only to see her eyebrows showing, she had already thought of a clever plan, "Xianggong, the concubine has thought of three countermeasures, you might as well take a three-pronged approach."
"There are three major problems in the development of Yuewang County, one is the resistance of the local Tusi, the second is the resistance of the local religion, and the third is the incomprehension of the local people."
"In Qinlan's view, one is three, and three is one."
"Because the ideology of the local people has always been influenced by traditional forces, the Tusi in various places are its core representatives, and the Tusi are influenced by local religions, such as Bimo culture, which is one of the core of the primitive religion in Yuewang County, which is a bit similar to the black religion temples in Xikang, most of which are passed down from father to son, or from family to family."
"Bi Mo", Liu Yun was also stunned, he was really a little lonely, he had only heard of Xikang's Black (Ben) Sect, White Sect, Red Sect and Yellow Sect, well, in Xikang and Qinghai and other places, it seems that it is currently the Yellow Sect in charge.
Yin Qinlan also knew that this matter was very important, so she calmed down and explained in detail, "Bi Mo" is a transliterated word in Liang Yi language, "Bi" means "chanting scriptures", and "Mo" means "an elder with knowledge".
In short, Bimo is a kind of shaman who specializes in praise, prayer, and sacrifice for others, and is in charge of bimo, priesthood, medicine, and divination.
Liu Yun also smiled bitterly, he finally understood.
Bi Mo, that is, the clan elders who master witchcraft in the Liangshan area, are not only in charge of divine power, but also grasp the spread of culture, and even can communicate with gods and ghosts, and also guide the secular power, in the minds of the local people, these elders are the real holy ones.
Seeing Commander Liu's frowning, Yin Qinlan thought that this guy didn't understand, so she further explained, "Bi Mo's status is sacred and noble, he worships ancestral spirits, nature and family gods, presides over sacrifices for his clansmen, fabricates classics, heals diseases, and also serves as the holy teacher of Heiyi slave owners."
Liu Yun really collapsed now.
The huge Yuewang County turned out to be Bi Mo in charge, it was really unexpected, these things that the gods were talking about, he didn't understand it at all, if he dealt with these people, he really didn't know how to deal with it, if it wasn't handled properly, wouldn't it be half the effort.
"Xianggong, you don't need to understand what Bimo is at all", Yin Qinlan was happy again.
"You are now the king of western Sichuan, and you are the third leader of the Sichuan army, as long as you go in person, it is the greatest sincerity and respect. In addition, it will be easier to find some people who understand Bimo culture and accompany you."
Haha, it's really a word to wake up the person in the dream, Yin Qinlan is the best candidate, Liu Yun hopes that she can go to Yuewang County with her.
However, Secretary Yin didn't do this rough work, so he suggested with a smile, "Qinlan has three clever plans, which can be strategized and won thousands of miles away, so as to help Xianggong pacify the land of Yuewang as soon as possible."
"First of all, it's a heart-to-heart strategy. If you want to talk to Bimo, you have to invite some religious people to come forward, such as the Golden Wheel Dharma King and Master Yinye of the Hidden Moon Temple, who are the most suitable people for this trip."
"The second is the demonstration strategy. Order a general to command 5,000 troops, known as 50,000 to the outside world, forming a large army to suppress the situation, to see if those Tusi and Black Yi slave owners really dare to argue with the army."
"Finally, there is the plan of Huairou. He showed his favor by offering some gold and silver goods, guns and ammunition, and military and political titles."
Liu Yun couldn't help but applaud, "Attacking it with heart, showing it with power, and being soft with grace, it is really a plan, and it is also a series of plans, like the waves of the sea, wave after wave."
Yin Qinlan owed shallowly, and modestly made a gesture of thanks and praise, telling Commander Liu not to be too excited, and it is necessary to think long-term to do these things well.
Secretary Yin said with a smile, "Xianggong, you can know that since the Xinhai Revolution, the land of Liangyi has always been a big problem, even if Liu Wenhui and others build a new Xikang Province and urgently need an administrative area, they are not willing to want this place."
"Because the ethnic situation here is complicated, and there are not many products, even if you want to send troops to suppress it, if there are few, it is a waste of time for a blind man to light a lamp, and if there are too many, some gains outweigh the losses, and if you want to have effective jurisdiction for a long time, you have to station troops to guard. What's more, Chuan Kang is notoriously poor, and no one wants to do anything that costs money and food."
Liu Yun nodded at first, then shook his head.
According to him, Liu Xiang and other generals of the Sichuan army are a little picky and thin, and they are looking for those places where oil and water are abundant, Liu Wenhui led his troops to march into Xikang, mainly because of the local gold mines.
But if you don't care about Liangshan for a long time, the people in these places may only know that there is a toast, but they don't know that there is a central government.
Speaking of Xikang Province, Commander Liu thought of another person, this person is Yin Qinlan's biological father, Yin Changheng, who is currently the chief adviser of the Sichuan Railway, once served as the Sichuan overseer, is the first hero of the Xinhai Revolution, and also led troops to Liangshan and Xikang and other places, so far the prestige is not fading, is the best candidate to deal with Tusi.
Speaking of Yin Changheng, Yin Qinlan's feelings are also the most complicated, but she has always been virtuous and does not avoid hatred, and she does not avoid relatives, and Mr. Yin is indeed suitable, so she will not object.
Secretary Yin only warned one point, "Xianggong, this place belongs to the 17th Administrative Inspectorate of Sichuan, and there are rumors that it will be allocated to Xikang Province."
Liu Yun is a smart person who knows a lot of things.
Yin Qinlan means that don't look at the land of Liangyi was very desolate before, just like a ball, everyone wanted to push it away, but now if Sichuan wants it, everyone is afraid that everyone will rush to ask for it, because as soon as Liu Sanye develops it, it will become a golden land in the blink of an eye.
I'm really tired of fame.
However, Commander Liu is not too afraid, it is also a good thing that these bear children want to come over to grab food, but in the end, they don't know who they are? What's more, the purpose of developing this place is to develop industry and railways, and if there is a pick-up man, it is also a good thing, hum, I'm afraid they won't come.
Seeing Liu Sanye smiling, Yin Qinlan didn't say anything more, and then began to prepare for the preliminary work of development, including testing Yin Changheng to see if he was willing to go out, after all, this duke has been away from the military and politics for several years, and it is still unknown whether he can deter the local opponents in Liangshan, and whether he has that ambition.
Yoon Changheng is now in trouble as well.
Due to the problem of replacing the construction team of the Chengdu-Chongqing Railway, Liu Xiang has been very disappointed with the International Advisory Group and the Sichuan Railway Advisory Group, and is preparing to dismiss these consultants one by one or reorganize them into railway operating companies, but it is a little difficult for Mr. Yin to settle down.
Fortunately, Liu Yun was not really idle, and directly contacted Liu Xiang and Liu Wenhui, and held a radio meeting of the three giants in a timely manner.
The two old foxes didn't have any good intentions.
They wanted Liu Yun to become a commissioner, and then allocate a large amount of money and grain from western Sichuan, which was specially used for the Sichuan army to send troops to Daliangshan, so that the Sichuan army did not have to pay a penny, and recovered the huge Liangshan Prefecture, and also trained a large number of troops.
Pocketing the entire Liangshan Prefecture, Liu Yun didn't think about it.
It's a pity that his western Sichuan empire has swelled to the limit, and with the continuous spread of railway lines, in fact, western Sichuan is losing money every day, "sitting on the Liangshan Prefecture", which sounds good and looks good, but it is not easy to use, and it is too far away from western Sichuan.
However, the position of commissioner of Liangshan cannot be faked, and because there is no one in the bag, Liu Yun has to recommend Yin Changheng.
Yin Gong is a suitable candidate, at the beginning of Liu Xiang's administration, he asked him to go out of the mountain three times, the purpose was to let him serve as the commissioner of Daliangshan, but unfortunately Mr. Yin's mood was low at that time, not to mention what commissioner he was, even if he was appointed as the chairman of Chuankang and Kang, there was no interest.
