Chapter 266: Fighting
Chapter 266: Fighting
Li Wei is by no means the only one who thinks Li Zhi is ridiculous.
Many ministers in the court think like this, first let Wu Zetian be the queen of heaven, and how many queens can get this title since ancient times? Then came this hand again, this was not a slap in the face, it was a slap in the face of the queen.
The recovery of the eldest grandson Wuji is equivalent to rehabilitating the eldest grandson Wuji and returning to Zhaoling, which is an honor that can only be enjoyed by first-class heroes.
But how did the eldest grandson Wuji die?
Some people say that the eldest grandson Wuji has high power and is killed by Li Zhi, and even beheaded Li Yuanjing, the king of Jing, and Li Ke, the king of Wu, Li Zhi thought that he was degraded and didn't want to behead, but he was forced by the eldest grandson Wuji to behead, and he already held a grudge. Some people also say that the cause was the abolition of the queen, and the eldest grandson Wuji opposed Wu Zetian as the queen. The people who participated in the pre-announcement back then were either punished or died, and even if they were alive in the world, no one dared to ask. However, in the events of that year, the queen played an important role in the middle, because not only the eldest grandson Wuji, but also Chu Suiliang, Han Yuan, Liu Zheng, Yu Zhining, Gao Cheng, etc., these important ministers, they were either punished by the clan, or they were dismissed, and the next few people, no matter what, can not be called high merit and power, or weight, but the power is definitely not so heavy that it can harm the society. As for Liu Zheng, he could only be killed because of the queen, and there was no other reason. In this process, Li Yifu, Xu Jingzong, Li Ji, Xin Maojiang, Ren Yaxiang, Lu Chengqing and others all played the role of ugly lackeys.
But no one has Wu Zetian's big role.
Now not only the eldest grandson Wuji official is recovered, but also his great-grandson is the king, or the duke of the country is still intact, may I ask, how many descendants of the twenty-four heroes of the Lingyun Pavilion of the Tang Dynasty can attack the duke of the country, and return to Zhaoling.
You don't have to enter the palace, you can imagine the depressed expression of the queen in the harem.
……
August osmanthus fragrant, many gold and silver cinnamon in the Daming Palace are like broken rice beads, blooming among the green leaves, the gusts of autumn wind that have not yet cooled through, the fragrance hits.
Li Wei was summoned into the palace by his father again.
At this time, he didn't want to enter the palace, which would cause a bad idea to his mother, and he teamed up with his father to suppress her. And the fear was that he only saw his father sitting in the temple and did not see his mother. What's going on? Or is Lao Tzu really crazy?
Be careful to give a courtesy, it doesn't matter if others go crazy, it's terrible for your own son to go crazy. Who else in the world is more terrible than a mad emperor?
"Sit."
"Yes."
"Autumn has arrived, and the two canals are about to start again."
"Yes."
"But Wei Shaoqing has already played and opened a new canal, mainly a new river, but there are three problems, the first is that the sulfur is not enough, the war is imminent, and the army also wants to distribute some gunpowder, but the sulfur is not enough, and the ** is insufficient. Especially in Xinkaihe, there is not a lot of labor, and it is all gunpowder and stone-based. ”
"Yes," sulfur is not like saltpeter, and many old houses have nitrate, and there is no shortage of it in all parts of the country. Sulfur is only produced in hot springs and volcanoes, at least with current technology, sulfur can only be obtained from these two places, so the amount of sulfur is not large. Unlike the Guangtong Canal, the project of opening the stone is very small, mainly to clean up the silt in the canal, and the more manpower the better. But the Xinkaihe River is being built on the Renmen Peninsula, a palm-sized place, up to 300 meters long, even if it is a pile of people, it can't pile up 10,000 people when it's full. Or this calculation, the depth and width of Wei Hongji is up to three zhang, I am afraid it is a conservative number. If you want to really be navigable, at least you have to add a zhang, after all, the three doors are not Danshui, Danshui canal, can only be a supplement forever, and it is impossible to navigate the whole process of a relatively large river boat, so the amount of work is too large, the main water transport is still from the Yellow River upstream, it is possible to add a zhang, even so, it is only fifty or sixty thousand cubic masonry. If you pick it up quickly, you don't even have to pick it, and if you put it into the door, it will be washed away by the flood immediately, and the difficult thing is quarrying.
Li Zhi continued: "The other thing is to build a dam to block the water, and in the end there is a lot of money needed. ”
Obviously, Wei Hongji encountered a problem during construction and couldn't solve it, so his father called himself to ask.
Li Wei has always been suspicious of his father slapping his mother's face, or feeling that his mother is powerful, so he has come to a balance, but he can't change his face so quickly, there are people who turn his face faster than turning a book, but it is definitely not his father's character, it is really this reason, it can only be said that his father is sick and his head is sick. Or the mother gained power and began to make some small moves, so that the father noticed it, and issued this edict to suppress the mother. But it seems that the mother is not such a careless person. Or Dai Zhide and others secretly admonished them......
Can't guess.
Now there is another thought, is it possible that my father saw that Xinkaihe was encountering problems, and thought that he was suppressing himself during this period of time, and his heart was unbalanced, so he issued this edict to "comfort" himself and wanted to contribute again. It's also unlikely, so many years have passed like this, it's good if the new river can be opened, and it can pass if it can't be opened, and there is no need to "seek satisfaction" for yourself.
But there is one thing, Li Wei has already noticed that these two absurd holy decrees show that his father is indeed not as good as he was back then, and he has lost his judgment on many things. In the future, as long as this degree cannot be controlled, there will be more and more mistakes.
Anyway, it's time for my father to really quit the stage......
But he said: "Sulfur is easier to do, if Erchen remembers well, there is a lot of sulfur in the Great Sulfur Islands, very early, I have a route from Mingzhou or Yangzhou to the sea, to Al Naibo Island, and then to Yifu Island, and then to Pingjing City of the Wa Kingdom, this Al Duobo Island is a very large island in the Great Sulfur Islands. ”
Japan is what they call themselves, and the Tang Dynasty people still use the term Wa Guo. At first, he was very arrogant, since he was defeated by Liu Renliang, he began to realize the strength of the Tang Dynasty, and has sent six missions to the Tang Dynasty, successfully four and a half times, one time all sunk in the sea, and one time was divided into two ships, the first ship floated to the South China Sea, so that the natives of the South China Sea were killed, and only five people escaped. In fact, the shipbuilding technology of the Wa Kingdom can also be used, a boat can take more than 160 people, with sail oars, and the sea ships built in Quanzhou are also similar to this kind, when there is no wind, row with a plate oar. Of course, when the ship is bigger, the role of the oars becomes very low, and the only way to do this is to rely on ocean currents and wind. Originally, Li Zhi didn't care about this, but because he opened a sea market, he deliberately paid attention to it.
However, the sea is vast, there is no compass, and it is easy to get lost, which has become the most important reason for sailing accidents.
The route is immature, but there is.
Li Wei said: "Sulfur is not an uncommon thing on it, where the natives are backward, as long as they bring a little porcelain and cloth, they can be obtained through trade. As for building a dam to block the water, Erchen is also thinking of a way. However, the funds, the father, forgive the sons and daughters, in fact, the funds have been obtained for the court. ”
Commercial taxes aside, the taxation of Fan City has already made a lot of money for the imperial court. Without further questioning, it seems that the sea market is also starting to collect taxes. Not every merchant has the courage to go to the big food, some go nearby, go to the Wa country, ***, Shuizhenla, Linyi, Luoyue, Buddha and other countries, because the incident happened suddenly, there is no time to build a big ship, so the original sail oars boat sailing, the current and the direction of the wind need to be thirsty is not so great. I also heard about accidents, but after all, not every day there is a hurricane that can overturn a ship, and with a compass to guide the way, most of them came back safely. This is the beginning, the taxes levied are not very much, but there are already them.
With this money, plus a small allowance from the imperial court, it is enough to maintain the cost of opening the canal this year.
"Because of the invasion of Tibet, this fee has been used by various ministries."
It was to get a sum of money, because of the mobilization of the troops of the states, as well as other expenditures of the imperial court, although the years have improved a little in recent years, but the original foundation is too thin, like a dry sponge, what is obtained in the front is divided among the officials of the various ministries.
The treasury is still empty.
"Father, sons, and ministers are helpless, the effect of the two canals is remarkable, but the amount of work is huge, some officials estimate, not to cope with the errand, want to be practical, and do not want to disturb the people, may need to pay up to 10 million. Hugh said that Erchen, even Zhuge Wuhou, Guan Zhong Taozhu is alive, and he can't make so much money. ”
It is not unchanged, if these newly earned revenues are not included in the fees of the three provinces and six ministries, it will be enough to pay for the new canal by virtue of the sea market of Fan City and the sea market that will increase its income in the future. But the front opened up the financial resources, and the back included the expenditure of the three provinces and six ministries, no matter how good his brain was, he couldn't think of so many ways.
Directly refused.
In fact, he despised his father very much. didn't have the opportunity to send Lu to the door, didn't grasp it, and for the sake of the so-called face, he actually refused, which led to a disaster at the border. Military knowledge may not be very sophisticated, but it is visible that there is. Like the United States in later generations, it fought Iraq and Afghanistan, rode a tiger and struggled to get down, and then changed its policy and came to color revolution. Those who are good at fighting have no outstanding feats! In fact, it does not necessarily have to be a white knife to enter and a red knife to come out, and sometimes the effect is better without the use of war means.
If you don't take advantage of the contradiction that has intensified in Tibet, you have to slap your swollen face and become fat......
Even if it is to fight, there is no need to fight at this time, it can be done step by step, the more the contradictions in Tibet are intensified, the weaker the national strength will be. However, the situation in the Tang Dynasty has been improving in recent years, slowing down for several years, rising and disappearing, and annihilating the enemy in one fell swoop. It's also the middle way. But I didn't choose the two strategies, but chose the most inferior strategy......
Li Zhi was a little displeased, and said in a deep voice: "Hong'er, the original proposal between the two channels was proposed by you. ”
"Father......" Li Wei was so choked that he couldn't go on, staring at his father. Of course, Li Zhi will not show weakness, and also looks at his son. The father and son looked at each other, and it seemed that lightning and thunder flashed in the air between the two.
touched each other silently, and Li Wei weakened at the bottom, most of his old men were brains and couldn't care. And don't want to be on this, by Lao Tzu again and again, also uneven, since ancient times, is the predecessor of the tree, the descendants of the cool, now the whole is reversed, their own repeated tree, the tree has grown up and grown, Lao Tzu came over, kicked it, said: "Get out of the way." ”
Then I moved a chair and sat under the tree to cool off and drink a little wine. As for himself, he ran outside the tree and was exposed to the scorching sun. What is this?
So he said: "If my father wants to say so, then it depends on the three conditions of the son." ”
Gotta take the initiative to fight!
