It's very rare, Jia Changchao and Ouyang Xiu actually got together, the last time the two of them played in public, it was to calm the army's heart and act, but this time the two of them were sincere, at least they had the same purpose. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ouyang Xiu had the heart to govern the Yellow River, and Jia Changchao also wanted to make meritorious contributions by governing the river, and the two hit it off.

"I plan to requisition 1 million people to divert the water of the Yellow River into the sea in three years. At the same time, on both sides of the river, the establishment of flood canals, which can not only prevent floods, but also resist drought, at least can feed millions of lives along the river! ”

Jia Changchao confidently introduced his plan.

Ouyang Xiu rarely agreed with his old opponent once, "Such a big project is not trivial, Jia Xianggong must be kind to the people, cherish the people's strength, especially the repaired river embankment can no longer have problems." The old master said, and suddenly remembered, "By the way, Wang Erlang mentioned to me not long ago, he said that for sediment accumulation, you can use the method of water flushing sand, so as to reduce sediment accumulation and prolong the use time of the river." ”

"Oh, that's a good idea!"

Jia Changchao was overjoyed, if he presided over the construction of the river, not only to solve the flood, but also to be able to avoid problems for decades, he Jia Changchao can not only return to the imperial court, but even be famous in history, forever.

Jia Xianggong immediately sent someone to invite Wang Ning'an, to ask him well, what other good way did not say it!

His subordinates were sent out, and as soon as the front foot left the Shuai Mansion, someone arrived on the back foot and handed a letter to Jia Changchao. When Wang Ning'an arrived, he only saw two big black faces, both of which looked like Bao Zheng was possessed.

Ouyang Xiu sighed, and Jia Changchao was furious.

"It just doesn't make sense!" Jia Xianggong slapped the table, his slap was red, "Xia Wei is a villain, is there any court in his eyes, and there is no life in the world!" ”

Wang Ningan was sick to his stomach when he heard it, and said in his heart that Jia Changchao is also a good skill, obviously he is not very good, but he can still be righteous and strict.

"Jia Xianggong, let the kid come over, I won't listen to you complain!"

Jia Changchao was furious, put the letter on the table, motioned to Wang Ningan to watch, from beginning to end, browsed it, Wang Ningan was also stunned, Jia Changchao's disaster relief strategy is very good, at least Wang Ningan can't find too many loopholes, but why did he veto it when he was in the court!

The letter said that Xia Wei was against it, and several other ministers didn't talk much, Zhao Zhen finally believed Xia Wei's words, isn't it that Xia Wei has lost serious points and is about to step down! Why is it that the emperor still responds to every call, and the emperor obeys his words?

What the hell is going on?

Wang Ning'an was full of doubts, he looked carefully, and finally found clues, and the back of the letter mentioned that the result of the court meeting was to return the Yellow River to its old way of Henglong.

"This is nonsense!"

Ouyang Xiu shook his head, he had worked hard, and knew that the original Yellow River had gone through nearly a thousand years, and the siltation was very serious. The Yellow River has dropped in speed and has broken into many strands, hitting a huge estuarine delta, and the people of the prefectures and counties adjacent to the estuary are miserable.

Moreover, many officials have measured, so the road is high, and the north flow will go down.

To put it simply, the newly formed river channel is low-lying and adapts to nature, and Jia Changchao advocated building dikes to consolidate the north flow and divert water into the sea, which is the best choice for the people to respond to the sky. Otherwise, Ouyang Xiu would not have given up his previous suspicions and stood with his old enemies.

The problem is that their very professional and correct ideas have been overturned by the imperial court, what do they think?

Ouyang Xiu's goatee pursed and said angrily: "Fu Bi, Han Qi, what are they thinking, Xia Wei Hu comes, don't they know how to stop it?" ”

Obviously, he was also dissatisfied with his old comrades.

Jia Changchao grabbed his beard, thought about it for a long time, and gradually had some ideas.

Suddenly he laughed so loudly that tears came out of his eyes.

"Drunkard, I can't imagine that the gentlemen who served the country and the people back then have also changed, and they have become villains like Xia Wei! Uh, no, a hypocrite who is worse than Xia Horror! ”

"You don't want to spew blood!" Ouyang Xiu scolded angrily.

Jia Changchao said contemptuously: "Isn't it? Drunkard, do you know why they didn't obstruct it, and why did the imperial court insist on returning to the old ways of Henglong? ”

Ouyang Xiu was very curious, and Wang Ningan was even more curious.

Jia Changchao found a map, pointed to the newly formed North Stream, and the location of the old road of Henglong, Wang Ningan watched attentively, and suddenly frowned, shocked.

He finally understood the reason, and he also remembered that the Northern Song Dynasty had tried to use manpower three times in history to force the Yellow River back to the old road of Henglong, but it failed miserably three times, not to mention the huge amount of money, and put millions of people under the threat of floods, and the vitality of the entire Hebei was greatly damaged......

The root of everything is actually still on the sixteen states of Yanyun, and if you lose the sixteen states of Yanyun, you will lose the natural danger of the north, and the door of the Central Plains is open, and there is no danger to defend. Zhao Da wanted to move the capital back then, but no one mentioned it after his death, Bianjing City is definitely the most dangerous among the capitals of all dynasties, and there is no one!

The emperor of the Zhao and Song dynasties could only maintain his confidence by increasing his army. However, with the huge financial pressure, the decline in the quality of the army, and the unreliability of even force, the Yellow River natural risk is particularly important.

With thousands of years of history, the Yangtze River has not been able to block the north and south, let alone the Yellow River. However, in the eyes of the rulers of the Northern Song Dynasty, it is better to have natural risks than nothing.

Henglong's old road went straight to the east, just blocking the north of Bianjing, when the Empress Dowager Xiao stormed Lanzhou, it was by relying on the Yellow River natural danger that the monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty survived, forced back the Liao soldiers, and signed the alliance of Lanyuan. From then on, the emperors and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty became more dependent on the Yellow River.

This time, the Shanghukou burst the embankment, and the Yellow River suddenly changed direction and flowed northward, and in the Cangzhou section, it joined the boundary river of Song Liao. As we all know, the Yellow River is frozen, and the further north you go, the longer it freezes.

After the diversion of the Yellow River, there will be a large area of ice, the Liao cavalry south, such as into the land of no one, as long as the Baigou River is broken, can directly kill Bianjing, there is no longer a big river and high mountains in the middle.

Let's ask, can the monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty not be afraid?

Moreover, the alliance of the Yuanyuan clearly stipulates that the Northern Song Dynasty is not allowed to build city fortresses on the border, if there is no such provision, with the financial resources of the Northern Song Dynasty, a terrifying Great Wall will definitely be built...... Even if the city is not allowed to be built, the monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty still have a way.

They dug ponds on the Song-Liao border and diverted water into moorings, forming a series of swamps of water dotted around in an attempt to hold back the Liao cavalry.

After the diversion of the Yellow River, the sediment will accumulate, and the hard-built defense line will also be silted up and flattened, and it will no longer be effective.

Speaking of which, I'm afraid it's all understood.

Originally, it was a pond and a Yellow River, which jointly defended the capital and soothed the fragile hearts of the monarchs and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty, but now the Yellow River has been diverted, and the two lines of defense have disappeared at the same time...... They are in constant fear, desperately trying to restore their old ways and rebuild the shell of the turtle that saved their lives......

Xia Wei saw the emperor's mind clearly, so that he could overturn Jia Changchao's proposition.

Speaking of which, this is a very clear engineering problem, survey the river, measure the height, you can know that the old road cannot be restored.

But things in the world were so simple.

The various factions are mixed up, so they can't just talk about things, with the IQ of Fu Bi and Han Qi, they won't be incomprehensible, but they are happy to pretend to be confused and watch the excitement, Xia Wei advocates restoring the old way of Henglong, it is difficult to succeed, so the old guy is unlucky. As for Jia Changchao, although his proposition is right, there is no need for us to help the enemy, so we simply close our mouths and sit on the mountain to watch the tiger fight!

Jia Changchao scolded them bitterly, which made sense. Ouyang Xiu's whole body trembled violently, his lips were blue with anger, the comrades-in-arms who had spared their lives in order to promote the change of the law had disappeared, and they had all become a group of bureaucrats who calculated accidents!

"It's time to scold, it's really time to scold!"
