Chapter 667 The sea and the sky

In the great wave of social development, individual power can only play a role in connecting the past and the future, and cannot influence subsequent development at all. This is Wang Yu's biggest impression when he returned to Gaotang New Town after a long absence.

The city has not changed much, and the rapid construction of houses with large pieces of wood is a method of establishing military camps in later generations, which was widely spread in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and later withdrew from the historical stage due to the increasing shortage of wood, and it is very convenient to apply in this era.

Houses in urban areas have a gradual process from the inner perimeter to the periphery. The innermost one was built in full accordance with Wang Yu's instructions, and the outer part was that the craftsmen comprehended this construction method and added their own understanding and improvements.

In the same city, there are different styles of construction, and it is also the simplicity of the central area and the delicacy of the periphery, which once became the reason for the ridicule and ridicule of celebrities, thinking that Gaotang is worthy of being a large refugee camp, and everything is so strange and incompatible.

But as the famous saying goes: development is the last word, when these humble neighborhoods are flooded with new goods, and every day presents a scene of endless and impassable scenes, this notion quickly disappears, replaced by admiration and shock at miracles.

Even the civil affairs officials who have been guiding the development of the new city are amazed by this, let alone bystanders. Only Wang Yu is not surprised by this, someone has everything, and people's creative ability is endless. Now it is the Han Dynasty, which is the era when Huaxia Ming was the least restrained and never was destroyed by external forces.

Because of the nature of Gaotang's original refugee camp, the people who came to settle here were all people who had nothing. No property, no fields. There is no future, there is no hope, and in the same way, they have no preconceived notions.

What Wang Yu did was very simple, he showed these people a way, provided the corresponding supplies, and then everything happened naturally. Now, Wang Yu has slowly become a bystander, and the help he can provide. It seems that only a new model of life remains.

When he was there, the popular trend was led by him, and when he left, the popular trend was derived from the people, which did not affect the prosperity of Gaotang in the slightest.

It's October. But in the streets and alleys of Gaotang, there is no trace of Xiao Suo in the ordinary city, there are still people coming and going, and there is still a lot of traffic.

Small vendors carry burdens, push carts, walk along the streets, and shout for sales. attract the attention of passers-by; Patches of mist with various fragrances emerge from restaurants and teahouses, making people stop unconsciously. Everywhere was filled with laughter, and everywhere was filled with hope for life.

Wang Yu suddenly understood a little, the famous Qingming Riverside picture. What kind of mood did you draw it in? If he hadn't been touched by the vigorous vitality of Bianliang City, how could the painter have mastered and painted such a masterpiece?

If every place in the land of China is like the current Gaotang. Then it can really be called a prosperous age.

Wang Yu, the initiator, sighed, and several new members were directly shocked speechless.

Is this just a little more time? How could there be such a change against the sky?

Zhang Liao had never been to Gaotang before. His perception of this place is nothing more than the capital of Qingzhou, and Lu Bujun once made a plan to raid here.

However, he has traveled a lot of county towns similar to Gaotang - there are many such counties in Luoyang and Dongjun, because of the geographical convenience, they developed from a ferry port to a bazaar, and finally became a county seat. However, even if he added up the relatively large and well-known ferry cities he had seen, it seemed that they could not reach the scale of Gaotang.

When he looked at it from a distance, he just felt big, but he didn't really feel it. It wasn't until he entered the city that he realized what kind of behemoth this was—advancing all the way from the edge of the city, and by the time he saw the ruins of the ancient city wall of the Gaotang Dynasty, almost an hour had passed!

Although there were too many people in the market, and Wang Yu did not put up the frame of the hussar general, and used a leather whip to disperse the crowd, so the speed of the march was not fast, but the size of the city and the peak of its popularity still left a deep impression on Zhang Liao.

It's still winter, but what if we wait until the middle of summer, when the produce is at its highest? Zhang Liao couldn't imagine it, and he didn't have time to think about it.

When Chen Gong proposed the plan, he was against it, and now, there is one more reason to oppose it. Taking risks for personal ambition and destroying such a city is no longer a matter of the unrighteous war of the Spring and Autumn Period, but a crime committed against the entire Central Plains!

Although Chen Gong is very wise, Zhang Liao doesn't believe that the other party can rebuild and maintain such a city, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, how could he have imagined that the famous Gao Tang Dynasty was even more incredible than the rumors said?

Zhang Liao's heart fluctuated, and Lu Qiling had been dazzled for a long time, and she didn't even know where she was.

The rows of shops and teahouses only amazed her; The dazzling array of ready-to-wear clothes and silk cloths only gave her a few more glances; The aroma of fresh food made her swallow a few times, but what really made her stop and devote herself to it was those interesting promotional methods.

For example, she stayed the longest, so Zhang Liao repeatedly urged several times before she reluctantly went to the shop on the road. The store is a grocery store, in Gaotang, this is called a department store, and the owner creatively set up a shooting range in front of the door, encouraging pedestrians to enter the store to participate, shoot with bows and arrows, and win various prizes with the final results.

With Lu Qiling's vision, she will not forget this little bargain, what makes her feel interesting is the feeling of this combination of competition and luck.

Of course, she was lucky, the boss was unlucky, there were many marksmen in the Qingzhou Army, but those people had already seen these new tricks, and if they wanted to win the lottery, they wouldn't win on the street. But Lu Qiling went out for the first time, everything was fresh, and her archery skills were also at the level of a hundred steps through Yang.

When she was pulled away by Zhang Liao, Lu Qiling saw the boss's expression, and she was amused again, waved her hand, and only said that she didn't want anything, which made the boss grateful for Dade for a while. Then he continued on the road with great satisfaction, only to feel full of a sense of accomplishment, and his impression of Gao Tang was so good that it couldn't be better.

She didn't think much about it, but Zhang Liao didn't care, he found that there were many similar places in Gaotang City. Some are more than bows and arrows, some are more than wrestling and wrestling, and he even saw someone with special protective gear, compared to equipment!

If it was a random fight, Zhang Liao would not care. The problem is that he found that as long as he dared to get off the field, his actions were somewhat disciplined. These people may not look so strong, but they have a lot of strength, which makes people not only suspicious. Are they from the military?

However, if the soldiers of the hussars do not practice in the daytime, but run out to hang out and play, the name of the strong army in the world will inevitably ......

"Officers and men in the army will not participate in this kind of game, and every once in a while in the army, there will be a competition. If the palace in the army loses and makes money in the outside game, he will definitely be laughed at by his comrades. In the words of the lord, the competition between professional and amateur. Lose seven points without making a move, lose glory if you win, lose face if you lose, only a fool would do that. ”

saw Zhang Liao's doubts. Zhao Yun took on the role of a tour guide.

"Then these people are ......" Zhang Liao's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he thought of a rumor.

"It's just ordinary people." Zhao Yun confirmed the conjecture in Zhang Liao's heart. "In peacetime, it is the people, and in wartime it can also become a soldier, in the new policy of Qingzhou, martial arts is the purpose of juxtaposition with Tuntian, taking scholars, etc., the people have a martial style, if there is a crisis coming, it will not be able to only let the enemy slaughter. Back then, Yuan Zhi defeated Zang Ba in Yuanshan, and commanded tens of thousands of militia that had been temporarily assembled. ”

"What a martial artist." Zhang Liao finally knew that Wang Yu dared to let go of Qingzhou's empty last hole card.

After going through the process of going from something to nothing, and then from nothing, the people of Qingzhou are definitely not willing to repeat that process. What's more, the life they are enjoying now is unimaginable before, and their determination to defend their homeland is undoubted.

In such a mood, they accepted the military training drills of the General's Mansion four times a month, and were armed with the martial wind, if someone really broke through the defense line of the Qingzhou Army and killed them at the door of their homeland, how would they respond?

In the face of the sudden appearance of the militia army, can the so-called light raid really break through the Gaotang City, which has no city wall defense? You know, this is a big city with a population of 100,000 households, and if all the people are soldiers, it is more than 100,000 militia!

Zhang Liao was deeply skeptical.

Of course, Qingzhou's martial strategy is not without drawbacks, after thinking about it, Zhang Liao stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "This method is certainly conducive to defending against foreign enemies, but Wang Junhou is not worried, is there someone who inciting the people to rebel?" ”

Since the emergence of the concept of scholars, the Chinese Dynasty's internal precautions have always been higher than those external. In order to cater to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Dong Zhongshu came up with the drama of deposing the hundred schools, the concept of the difference between scholars and scholars, and the various means of internal control also began to climb to new peaks.

As far as Zhang Liao saw all the way, the weapon ownership rate of the Gaotang people has almost spread to every household, not only relatively ordinary weapons such as swords, guns and swords, but also weapons such as serial swords, halberd horses, and strong bows in the army are very common.

The only thing I didn't see was the strong crossbow, but the strong crossbow was not popular, presumably not because the law did not allow it, but because the price of the sharp weapon was too expensive, too rare, and did not have the conditions for popularization.

If the people had such conditions when Zhang Jiao was in trouble, not to mention Huangfu Song, even if Emperor Guangwu's Yuntai 28 generals were pulled out, they might not be able to suppress it. The millions of yellow turbans back then were just a rabble, completely different from the Qingzhou militia.

"There's nothing to worry about." Zhang Liao asked solemnly, but Zhao Yun replied very calmly: "If the ruler implements tyranny, even if the people are not wise, the people only have bamboo poles and sticks in their hands, and they can overturn the ruler's iron horse; On the contrary, even if the people had a strong bow and crossbow in their hands, how could they turn and aim at their backs? ”

"There are rods and scales in people's hearts, and everyone knows in their hearts which is good and which is bad. There are still few people who read books now, and there may be unreasonable ones, but in the future, ...... Maybe twenty or thirty years will be enough, as long as the new policy is implemented, the people's wisdom will be opened, and then there is still a need to be so careful to guard against their own people? ”

Zhao Yun raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and sighed leisurely: "The lord is very broad-minded, and his eyes have always been staring at the sea and sky outside." ”
