Chapter 012: The car is on the same track

β€”β€”

Chen Zhen is talented, there is no doubt about this, but what kind of official is it good to give him, this makes Wei Zheng difficult, and the ministers under his command already have Ju Xin, Jiang Mu, Jing Cang, Su Dai, and Su Qin are all talented ministers, and now there is another Chen Zhen, and it has become a kind of trouble for the ministers to be like clouds.

Chen Zhen, Rhino Head, and Su Dai who were present saw Wei Zheng suddenly frowning and silent, as if they were thinking about something, and their faces were quite embarrassed, which also made them very curious, but they didn't bother.

Gongsun Yan and Chen Zhen are not young, and the military generals under these two ministers can be said to be young Zhuang, after thinking hard, Wei Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at Chen Zhen and said: "Fang Cai is a few people who think about what kind of official position should be given to Mr. ”

The crown prince and the prince are completely different, the prince and the prince are the prince's teacher, if he is appointed to this position, Chen Zhen will be Ji Yu's teacher in the future, and the position of the prince is the third prince, and he is in the core position of the high-level defense of the country, and it can be said that Wei Zheng is the senior spokesperson of the country.

Although the post of Taifu is ranked among the three princes (Taishi, Taibao, Taifu), but a country is the highest administrative position, although Taifu has no real power, but is at the core of power, Chen Zhen served as Taifu, which means that he can directly participate in the formulation and decision-making of military affairs, and is in charge of the king, the yin and yang, and the prosperity of the state, and his position is very important.

Chen Zhen served as the head of the school palace in Jixia Academy, and was well versed in the king's virtues, so that he could be the teacher of the prince of the country, which was undoubtedly the best choice, and he was also a minister, and he was appointed as a prince and participated in the discussion and formulation of military affairs is undoubtedly the best position for Chen Zhenβ€”β€”! ”

Chen Zhen served as the new monarch and took charge of the new monarch, and he had the momentum to regain his strength and establish a great cause in the defense of the country.

……

It is true that the general trend of the world, because of Zhang Yi's bullying of Chu, the king of Chu Huai was desperate under the anger, and poured the country's troops to attack Qin, and once again attacked Shang Yu out of Danyang, and Qin chose to avoid its edge in the face of the menacing Chu army, while the other army was just the opposite, just when Su Dai returned to Longxi with the Yiqu instructor who was defending the country.

The army of Qin's northern expedition to Yiqu has been assembled by the Yunyang generation south of Ganquan Mountain, not only to stabilize the promise of defending the country and sending 50,000 horses, Yiqu is a big problem in the north of Qin, although Wei Zheng is indignant and dissatisfied with the weak Qin Zhi who took advantage of the fire to rob, but it is also the Taigong fishing wisher who takes the bait, this is to say that Yiqu will be destroyed in a big way, and to say that it is small, now the king of Yiqu has made a "green hat" to Yingsi, and it is enough reason to destroy Yiqu, but Yingsi is not the king of Chu Huai, and he will not gamble with Qin. But this time, under the public and private grievances, Ying Si really wants to make up his mind to destroy the righteous Qu country.

On the one hand, tens of thousands of soldiers will be waiting for the emperor, just waiting for the monarch to give an order, and Wei Zheng will continue to strengthen the country to secretly accumulate national strength, and at the same time, he is also preparing for Taihang to become king.

However, there is still some time to be called the king, and the Yiqu Kingdom is not said to be destroyed, the Great War of Qin and Chu has not yet begun, and Wei Guo can only wait for the future, after all, Zhang Yi was promised that before conquering Wei and taking land, he would have to wait for the Han and Wei coalition forces to attack Chu.

This is also what Wei Zheng is happy to see, the two countries of Han and Wei in the twilight of the Qin Dynasty and Chu were instigated by Zhang Yi to ally Qin against Chu this time, and the internal Wei State is bound to be empty, and it is easier to take land and besiege the city, so why not shed less blood and sacrifice?

Qin Chu fought, Han Wei swayed, Qi Guo watched coldly and wanted to sit and reap the benefits, Poyan in the north also entrenched himself at home licking his wounds, and Zhao Guoxiong secretly stored national strength in the north of the Central Plains to stay out of the matter and wait for the changes in the world.

And Wei Zheng is entrenched in the Central Plains, and he is also making a fortune quietly, and he is taking the opportunity to "farm" and build military infrastructure.

At this moment, Wei Zheng ordered the palace attendant to take the map hanging in the side hall and spread it on the ground, he was holding a brush in his hand, and a maid stood beside him with an ink plate, and Wei Zheng drew a line on the map with a light touch of ink. It is along the two galloping paths of the current defense of the country that are running side by side with each other.

After drawing two routes parallel to Chidao on the map, Wei Zheng nodded thoughtfully to himself.

"Your Excellency, Dr. Zheng Kui is here to report, everything is ready." The left palace eunuch came to report.

Wei Zheng immediately handed the pen to the maid, and at the same time walked out of the hall, saying, "Come on, call Taifu Chen Zhen!" ”

Zheng Kui is the craftsman who ordered him to build the Quyuan plow, but now this commoner Zheng Kui has already entered the court as an official.

It didn't take long for Chen Zhen to receive an order to come to the palace annex.

"Your Majesty, this is ......" Farewell, Chen Zhen looked at the strange thing in front of him and was very curious, like a chariot but not like it, let alone a chariot, because there were several sections connected together.

"The widow named it the rail car!" Wei Zheng said with a smile, and after a while, Chen Zhen saw a group of wrestlers coming with the processed wooden materials, and after a while, Zheng Kui ordered a few craftsmen to start assembling them.

Chen Zhen looked puzzled as a group of people began to work, and Wei Zheng looked excited, and after working for nearly an hour, he finally appeared in front of everyone, which was a 200-step-long "wooden track", Wei Zheng said to Chen Zhen excitedly: "This is called sleeper track!" A special wooden rail car passes through this road, and few people order it to be a rail road. ”

"Strange β€”β€”!" Chen Zhen said a word concisely, but he was puzzled.

Wei Zhenglang laughed, didn't care, and said: "The widow does not hesitate to build the galloping road, which is intended to enable the army to rush to the aid and respond quickly. With the gallop road but it is still far from enough, the world is so big, once the battle line stretches for thousands of miles, the logistical pressure rises sharply, it is said that the Chu army invaded Qin, the battle line stretches for thousands of miles, in order to send food to the front-line army, the grain on the way will consume three stones or more, even if the Chu State is vast and more millet branches for decades, the treasury is full and can not withstand such consumption. ”

Chen Zhen nodded involuntarily, he understood the meaning of Wei Zheng's words, it was nothing more than that once the battle line stretched for thousands of miles or even longer, the consumption of national strength by fighting a war would also soar.

Even if he wins the battle, in the end, his family background is getting thinner and thinner.

When Chen Zhen was thinking about it, he was immediately attracted by the "sleeper track" in front of him, and watched the "rail car" mentioned by Wei Zheng be sent into the wooden track by several craftsmen, and the wheels were actually perfectly fit with the sleeper track, and then several "rail cars" were hooked and connected to each other.

After a while, a wrestler brought a horse and drove it into the sleeper tracks, and the horses were soon tied to the first "rail car".

Zheng Kui ordered a wrestler to sit on the front of the car, pull the reins and shout "drive", and after a while, the foal pulled several "chariots" to move steadily on the track.

Chen Zhen looked at the scene in front of him in surprise, and at this time, Wei Zheng said with a smile: "Taifu, if there is such a track running through the territory of the country, what if the logistics front stretches for thousands of miles?" A group of horses can pull several times the materials on this rail road, and if the state of Chu wants to send food to the front-line army, it will consume three stones on the way, and if I have this track, it will stretch for thousands of miles, and it will consume half a stone halfway through. ”

After that, he said to Zheng Kui today: "Widow edict, from now on, the carriages and horses in the country are all on the same track!" Dr. Zheng brought this order to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and there must be no mistake! ”

"Noβ€”β€”!"

……

(PS: "The car is on the same track, the book is on the same text" is no stranger to these six words, why "the car is on the same track"?) Because there was a "wooden track" more than 2000 years ago, let's not say that the stone panic randomly dotted the science and technology tree, this is a fact, if the "sleeper track" appeared in the previous era is not scientific, then the Chidao is also not scientific, but the fact is that the "sleeper track", "Chidao straight" have appeared.

When it comes to "railways", many people immediately think of the product of the Industrial Revolution in the West. In 1814, Stephenson built a steam-powered steam locomotive, marking the dawn of the era of human mechanical trains. In fact, as early as 2,000 years ago, Greece used horses as a power rail car. However, what people don't know is that China was the first country to use "trains" on a large scale, and it was 2,200 years ago. 200 years earlier than Greece. Chinese archaeologists have found a very large "sleeper rail network" in the mountainous area of Nanyang, Henan Province, and these roads are still double lines, and those who are interested can learn about it themselves. οΌ‰
