Xiazhou, formerly known as "Kipzhou", was changed to expand the state in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and continued in the Tang and Song dynasties.

During the Yuanfeng period of the Northern Song Dynasty (1078~1085), "Kip" was changed to "Xia", and then called "Xiazhou". The land of Xiazhou, at the mouth of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, Zhiyiling (now Yichang, Hubei), is also a thoroughfare city.

Huang Jie and others entered Xiazhou City two days ago, and this Xiazhou City is also like Huangzhou City, which is not only the county seat of Yiling County, but also took the official card to charter the two large courtyards of the official post to settle their own homes, and drove them to the temple in the city to place the order.

The mouth of the Three Gorges is on the side of Xiazhou, not to mention that he has to wait for Hua Rong to act, that is, he will not wait for him, Huang Jieben will also go on this ancient quest to find a secluded place, not to mention that he also wants to climb high and look into the distance, looking for the foundation site of the dam in the future.

For two days in a row, Huang Jie exchanged official documents with the Xiazhou Yamen according to the regulations, arranged for the monks to copy the atlas and road test, and also had a banquet with the Lord of Nazhizhou. The governor of Xiazhou also frankly accepted the letter of Song Xiaonian, the prefect of Jiangling, and was very interested in building roads for the benefit of the people.

Even, Huang Jie also came up with his "high-speed fast lane" plan, that is, the official road connecting the state capitals was also repaired by the local government with its own funds, and the one-way two-lane road was changed to a two-way four-lane road, but this official road should be downgraded to a county road. Later, the central government, that is, the imperial court, funded and newly acquired land to survey the line to build a "high-speed fast lane", which is a two-way six-lane expressway. There is a maintenance station every two miles, with two "road shifts" and four servants. On March 1, they took turns to maintain the road full-time.

There is a service area every 16 miles. Provide horse-drinking, car repair, sharpening, accommodation services, the service area is built and operated by the people, and only need to bear the responsibility of supplying along the official post and military post in peacetime.

The surname of this Xiazhou Zhizhou is Zhang Mingguan, and the word is far away, and he is a person from Jingdong Road. Huang Jie's set of road construction plans sounded very moving to him, and after a thorough discussion, Huang Jie also knew that he was actually the queen of Sumen, who had studied Wang Anshi's changes, and was still a loyal fan of Sima Guang and Lu Huiqing. And because when he was studying in Taixue, he had heard Su Shi's lectures several times when he was a scholar of Hanlin and a tribute from the Ministry of Rites, so he regarded himself as Su Shi's protégé, and naturally had a relationship with Huang Jie, Su Shi's nephew and son-in-law.

It's just that for two days in a row, the two of them drank and talked about the road, not anything else. Huang Jie was naturally sensible, and it happened to be the evening of the second day. Early in the morning of the third day, he also sent people to report to Zhang Guan, saying that he saw the sky in the morning and wanted to go to Taipingxi (Taipingxi Town, where the Three Gorges Dam is located today) to view the mouth of the Three Gorges.

This Taiping Creek is naturally the name of the place that Huang Jie recorded in his dream. After coming to Xiazhou for a few days and asking the locals in many ways, I learned that the location was about 50 miles away from the northwest of Yiling County. Seeing that in the past two days, the atlas and road test stored in the Xiazhou Mansion have almost been copied by the monks. Naturally, there will be no more delays.

Early this morning, Huang Jie led more than 30 people to close the guards. took Wan Chunnu, Yao Yu, and Qinghe and them, and went to Taiping Creek. There is no wind or waves all the way. When I arrived at the ground, it was almost noon, so I also chose a small hill with lush trees, and climbed high to overlook the river on the side of Taiping Creek.

At this time, it was the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, the water potential of the Yangtze River was smooth and unremarkable, standing on the high hill, seeing a river of Tianshui coming from the north and turning east, the rumbling sound of the water was like a heavenly sound, Huang Jie couldn't help but be full of spirit in his chest, so he also casually chanted out Li Daoyuan's "Water Classics: Three Gorges":

Seven hundred miles from the Three Gorges, the two sides of the strait are connected with mountains, and there is no place to go. Heavy rocks are stacked, hidden from the sky. Since midnight in the non-pavilion, there is no moon. As for the Xiashui Xiangling, it is blocked along the trace. Or the king's order is urgently announced, sometimes the white emperor is sent to the court, and the twilight arrives in Jiangling, during which 1,200 miles, although he takes the wind, he does not take the disease.

In spring and winter, it is a turbulent green pool, and the reflection is clear. There are many strange cypresses, hanging springs and waterfalls, flying in the meantime, clear and prosperous, and a lot of fun.

Every sunny and early frost, the forest is cold and the stream is severe, there is often a long howl of the high ape, which is desolate, the empty valley sounds, and the mourning turns for a long time. Therefore, the fisherman sang: "The three gorges of Badong are long, and the ape screams three times with tears." ”

Sun Gu on the side frowned when he heard this, but asked Sun Xindao: "Second brother, is Da Lang stupid?" This is neither Qutang nor Xiling, and I don't know how far away from Wuxia, but what kind of Three Gorges is he chanting? ”

Sun Xin also looked at Jiang Mian and frowned, when Huang Jie asked him to inquire about Taipingxi, he also said that it was a place where literati and ink writers lingered, but who knew that it was just an ordinary place to inquire. Now after following Huang Jie, he didn't see any strange scenery, it was just an ordinary river bay, listening to him recite ancient texts with great interest, Sun Xin himself was a little inexplicable.

Huang Jie only cared about finishing the "Three Gorges of the Water Classic", and then he smiled and said: "Happy! Joyfully! If you don't see the water of the Yangtze River coming up from the sky, you naturally can't see the magnificent scenery of the future in my eyes! How! How! ”

Sun Xin also asked: "I don't know what kind of magnificent scenery it is, Da Lang might as well say!" ”

Huang Jie pointed to the river and said: "In about 900 years, a huge dam will be built here, which will cut off the water of the Yangtze River, which has been rushing for tens of thousands of years!" ”

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked, and their eyes were full of astonishment, so Wan Chunnu also came to Huang Jie's side, pointing to the west of the river and said: "The mountains in this place, high in the west and bottom in the east, if you build a dam here to stop the water, I don't know how many good fields will be flooded." ”

Huang Jie laughed when he heard this, and then he also hugged Wan Chunnu and said, "Look! It is the truth that the spring slaves understand, but unfortunately the people of later generations do not know how to pretend to understand. Before the dam was built, it was only a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, but after it was built, it was a disaster for the country and the people. But he said that at that time, my Huang family still had a descendant, who studied the matter of river engineering, and he wrote several times to oppose it, but it was in vain! ”

Sun Gu looked at the river, but also said thoughtfully: "But I don't know what the future generations will build that dam, what is the benefit?" What are the drawbacks? ”

Huang Jie thought about it, and then said: "Later generations, study the way of nature, domesticate thunder and lightning, and build a dam to turn water into electricity, which is beneficial." As for the disadvantages, there are too many, flooding the mountains to cause bank collapse, blocking the water potential makes the downstream rivers dry and difficult to adjust to two, cutting off the flow and eliminating fish migration for three...... In particular, we all know that the bream, saury and rouge are the unique gluttonies of the Yangtze River, and it is only ten years after the dam was built, and it is also extinct! ”

In every word, everyone was shocked when they heard it, but no one thought that Huang Jie was opening his mouth, and soon someone caught the key to the problem, but the first to ask was Hua Dalang, and he said: "Uncle, did the people of later generations really domesticate thunder and lightning?" What is the use of this thunderbolt? But is it used as a weapon to cut down the wicked? ”
