Far away in the northeast, the snow in the Daxianbei Mountain temporarily stopped, but the Hetao Plain at the foot of the Yin Mountain was immersed in a baptism of snowstorms. ⊥

Shuofang County ushered in the second batch of immigrants, still 100,000, still from Guanzhong, they have the descendants of the old Qin people, the descendants of the Chu people's military merit group, and the children of the Kanto Haoqiang who have moved in recent decades.

Whether happy or sad, the edicts of the imperial court must be carried out unconditionally.

"What's more, the care and subsidies given by the imperial court are on the table, and the powerless can get a chance to get ahead, and they are happy to accept it." Shuo Fang is too shou Gongsun Xian to talk eloquently.

Gongsun Xian was a lean middle-aged man, and his ordinary appearance did not affect his self-confidence, and he was regarded as the best candidate for the imperial court since he set the plan for Shuofang County before the autumn season.

The surname Gongsun is very ordinary, at least it can show that his ancestors were once descendants of a certain prince in the Spring and Autumn Period, and he was an authentic Wei State in the Warring States Period, and in the thirty-ninth year of King Zhou Xian (330 years ago), Wei lost Hexi County, and his ancestors returned to Qin as scholars, and struggled for more than 100 years and gradually entered the middle and high level of Qin.

Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries and decided to connect the Great Wall of the northern borderlands, so his ancestors became the first residents of Jiuyuan County, and his great-grandfather's four brothers served as grassroots officers in the Great Wall Army, his father served as a middle-level bureaucrat in Xianyang, and his uncle was a lieutenant under the Qin general Meng Tian, who belonged to the high-level generals of the Qin army.

The ancestors belonged to the five doctors Wang Li and Shaofu Zhang Han in the war to destroy Qin, and escaped Xiang Yu's pit killing in the Battle of Julu, and he was disappointed in Zhang Han's incompetence and hated Xiang Yu's cruelty to the bone. With him as a typical old Qin disciple, he made great contributions in the battle of the Three Qins, especially the ancestors of Gongsun Xian who followed Cao Shen to defeat the princes and kings of the Three Qins. The soldiers came to the city to force Zhang Han to death, and he was still an old subordinate of the Cao family from the beginning.

Cao Shi and Gongsun Xian are also relatively familiar. A small number of in-service bureaucrats among the guests who came to mourn when his father died of illness, in the early years, he was promoted step by step from the grassroots officers in the border county, and he made some contributions to the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu and entered the first level of the captain, and in the past few years, he had served as the county lieutenant in Yanmen County for more than two years, and was transferred to Beidi County as a taishou in the past few years, and he stayed in the northern frontier all the year round and had very old qualifications.

Born in Jiuyuan County, living in the border county as an officer all the year round is just an advantage, there are at least dozens of people with similar conditions in the court, but his conditions are good because his ancestors are very familiar with Jiuyuan County. As early as the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang, the Taizu of the founding of the country, decided to make a detailed survey of the lost territory of the old Qin in the north, with the intention of freeing up his hands to regain the lost territory, and Gongsun Xian's grandfather was the first batch of people to be sent to the hometown of Jiuyuan County.

At that time, things were similar to surveying and mapping, depicting imprecise maps, and recording the text to the west, disguised as ordinary herdsmen who walked thousands of miles in the south of the desert for nearly ten years, knowing that Taizu had died and did not complete the task given by the imperial court. His grandfather and father did not give up their goal, and insisted on surveying the border counties and the Monan Xiongnu for nearly 50 years, escaping the attack of the steppe wolf several times, and paying a heavy price to complete the task.

In his early years, he also hiked through the Yinshan Mountains. Zeng crossed the river and sneaked into Henan to record the migration habits of the Aries royal tribe, and with this persistence, almost no one could be more suitable than him, so Lijun notified Gongsun Xian to make corresponding preparations as soon as he got it. After two months of preparation, and another month of taking up his new post, he invited the general to come before the spring flowers bloomed.

"General, look at this place. The richest place in the nine curves of the river, Luli is located in the most fertile place on both sides of the river. The cultivated land by the river can meet the farming needs of the people on both sides of the river, the two sides of the river are more ferries to and fro and the boats are ready, the beacon tower is set up in the west and the north to station the county soldiers, each Lu is equipped with a bronze bell for alarm, the road between Lu Li and Mo is built to keep the communication smooth, the beacon and the garrison are set up along the way to Yunzhong County, if the Huns can not succeed in the south for a moment and a half, the beacon fire timely reports to Yunzhong County to carry the rescue troops, if Yunzhong is not as good as Yanmen County, Yanmen is not as good as Taiyuan County, and pass until Chang'an City step by step. ”

The guard of honor of the general came to the Yellow River, Cao Shi listened absentmindedly, but he thought about the eternal problems of the Yellow River flooding, and his vague memory suddenly remembered a story of Tian Wei, as if Liu Che was the emperor in the early stage of an unprecedented Yellow River breach, as the prime minister Tian Wei not only did not organize the blockade, but let the breach flood for his own selfishness.

Although after several disputes, the imperial court decided to block it, but at that time it was difficult to plug the big mouth that was washed away, and the failure of the plugging caused the Yellow River water to flood on the Great Plains for more than 20 years before it was blocked.

The Great Breach happened to be on the eve of the Han-Hungarian War, losing millions of people's tax revenues and hundreds of thousands of hectares of fertile land, and several of the richest populous counties in the Kwantung region became Wang Yangze State, which brought huge losses to the financial system of the Han Empire.

Therefore, when the Han-Hungarian War began, the millions of desperately poor people in the country were homeless, and the Xiongnu were forced to fight in the face of heavy flood losses in the country, and it only took a few years to collapse the treasury financial system.

And the initiator Tian Wei has already patted his ass and gone to hell, and the people only remember the destruction of the Han River, but no one will care about the immeasurable impact of the first evil Tian Wei.

"A rat poop spoils a pot of porridge! Tian Wei's rat poop is not a pot of porridge, but a good situation that spoils the Han Empire, without his many ways to obstruct and block the Yellow River break, the Yellow River will not flood for more than 20 years, without his own selfishness, the imperial court will not let the imperial court lose millions of people's taxes, lose hundreds of thousands of hectares of fertile land harvest, the imperial court not only can not collect taxes but also find a way to resettle refugees, more than 20 years of river troubles disrupted the domestic hematopoietic system, caught up with the outbreak of war, commercial development came to a standstill, social security declined, and tax increases once again entered a vicious circle, The price paid back and forth is amazing, and the invisible loss every year is more than 10 billion dollars! ”

Cao Shi stared at the Yellow River, and his mood was very complicated.

The water of the Yellow River becomes turbid here, the Loess Plateau of Henan contains amazing sediment, the river flows through the two banks and naturally carries the sediment to the south, the northwest side of the Hetao Plain is the starting point of the sediment, and there is no need to worry about excessive sediment to make the river silt, the turbulent river water passes through the Hetao Plain to bring the sediment into the middle and lower reaches, and the Hukou Waterfall becomes a pure yellow river water.

After the transmission of the river, at the confluence of the Wei River east of Chang'an, the confluence of the Wei River turns sharply to the east, the place is called Fenglingdu, the opposite bank is the boat Sikong set up by the imperial court, the flow speed of the Yellow River that continues to flow to the east slows down significantly, and the sediment carried by the river gradually settles in the area east of the northern river channel (Sanmenxia) of Hangu Pass, and gradually rises from the Luoyang to the east of the river, and that area is also the area where the river floods.

In the Spring and Autumn Period and before, the river flooded in Hebei, and the large plains of Zhao were once huge swamps, and in the early Warring States Period, the Kwantung countries were busy building dikes to block the lakes and marshes, and little by little the river water was pushed back into the correct channel, and the Yellow River has been stable in the river for more than 300 years from the early Warring States period to the present, and there is very little flooding trend.

He didn't know when the Yellow River would flood again, but he would definitely try to block the river, because he knew that once the Yellow River flooded, it was destined to bring immeasurable losses, not just the loss of hundreds of thousands of hectares of grain and the loss of millions of taxes, but also the destruction of the continuity of economic development in the eastern part of the country, which accounted for one-tenth of the population of the Han Empire, and the loss of one-tenth of the population growth, and the people who could not eat would not consider having children, because they could not support themselves.

With a vicious circle, it is difficult to heal the wound for ten or even twenty years, is the emperor willing to waste ten years of good youth? Impossible, he will definitely insist on waging war, even if the domestic losses are incredible, he will firmly wage war, defeating the Xiongnu is his life's ideal, for this he will do whatever it takes.

He understands the emperor's insistence, especially at this moment, the Xiongnu are in a short-term crisis, and the Han Empire must seize the opportunity to wait for the opportunity to go north to crusade against the Xiongnu, and eliminate the main force of the Xiongnu as soon as possible to eliminate the external troubles in the north, so that the emperor can have the heart to turn to the west or south to complete other goals.

Cao Shi is also very supportive of the emperor's great ideals, no matter how domineering and domineering the Son of Heaven who is called Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty will become in the future, he does not mind fighting for the realization of the ideal of hegemony of the Han Empire, he can temporarily ignore personal political gains and losses, as long as he can complete the lifelong pursuit of several generations, at least he is worthy of this life and does not leave regrets.

Now it seems that defeating the Xiongnu is not a problem, the difficulty is to defeat the Xiongnu, he does not want to be seriously injured, he is very worried that the emperor's persistence will make the Han Empire hit the head and bleed, but unfortunately the emperor is not obedient to him, except for sighing, he can only sigh.

The Son of Heaven will grow up after all, even if he stays in Chang'an, he will not be able to affect him for a long time, and the relationship between teacher and friend will end sooner or later, and the delusional long-term control of the Son of Heaven will definitely lead to the destruction of the family, and maintaining a superficial intimate relationship like this may be the best result.

Before I knew it, my thoughts flew into the distance.
