"I ...... In the next ......, "Guan Ning was a spirit, almost jumped up, his always clever eloquence was gone, he stumbled, and changed several self-proclaimed names in a row, but he didn't say half a word.

He was frightened.

I was not frightened by Wang Yu's questioning, but by Wang Yu's straightforward and casual attitude.

From the housekeeper's mouth, he had already understood Liu Bei and Xu Yu in detail, from contact, to testing each other, and finally through a discussion on major events in the world, the relationship between the guest and the host was determined.

The fact that my father was able to attend the meeting was Liu Bei's expression, it was a very high-standard treatment, and he had done a lot of foreshadowing in advance, which was quite a grand event.

This is not because of the younger brother, the news of the younger brother's inclusion in the hussar list has not spread, in the eyes of outsiders, he is just a teenager who has read books and has good martial arts. For Liu Bei, who is alone, the resources provided by Guanjiazhuang are the most important, so his father enjoyed such treatment, and regretted it afterwards, and also thought that it was a strange thing to live in, trying to make himself use it as a step forward.

Because of this understanding, before coming, he was ready to leave something and leave. Who would have thought that not only was he summoned directly, but Wang Yu was so casual that he discussed the general trend of the world with the two military advisors in front of him.

Is this a confidential matter?

But what is there to value about yourself?

Guan Ning was puzzled in his heart, only to feel that his head was full of paste, sticky, and he couldn't turn a single thought.

It wasn't until Wang Yu's last question that he understood a little, and the other party seemed to want to take advantage of this to test himself. But he didn't even think about these things he just said, so where could he say why?

"No ideas?" In the midst of embarrassment, Wang Yu's empathetic next question came. Guan Ning nodded again and again as if he had been amnestied, and sweat was dripping down his forehead.

Wang Yu was a little disappointed, he was the brother of a famous general, there should always be something different from ordinary people, right? If you know strategy or the art of war, after listening to these words just now, you should have some ideas.

He didn't treat these things as any secrets, and the transmission speed of ancient information was slow. The limited scope of transmission has led to the limited horizons of many people. Those who have advantages in this area can easily throw off those whose intelligence is higher than their own in the overall situation, just like those who have gone abroad in the next ten generations. Just say a few new things, and you can smash everyone else.

Wang Yu believes that the formulation of a strategy is the simplest, and there is enough information, and those who have studied the art of war strategy a little can draw up a strategy that is not too outrageous.

Really hard. It's about putting the strategy into action.

Take Zhuge Liang's grandeur as an example, just hearing his description, you may feel very powerful, but knowing this. Can you annex Jingzhou, enter Xishu, and then compete for the world? Apparently not.

With a big snack, the annexation of Jingzhou is a big proposition. In fact, even Zhuge Liang himself failed to complete it;

Take the benefit state. It can be regarded as relatively well prepared, but it is still a series of fierce battles, and after losing troops and losing generals, it was successfully won;

After the pattern of the Three Kingdoms was formed, General Yi was ordered to attack Wanluo with Jingzhou's troops, and the main force went out of Hanzhong, and the grand strategy of attacking Guanzhong was divided and attacked, which involved a wide range of coordinated operations.

This strategic root has not been fully implemented, in fact, Guan Yu's attack on Xiangfan and Liu Bei's attack on Hanzhong should have been carried out under the guidance of this strategy.

The Battle of Hanzhong was fought from the 22nd year of Jian'an to the end of the 24th year of Jian'an. The battle of Xiangfan was carried out in the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an, but it was completely unable to reach mutual support and echo each other, and was finally broken by each other, or Guan Yu sacrificed himself and Jingzhou to respond to Liu Bei's offensive in Hanzhong and eliminate the threat of Cao Cao's counterattack in Hanzhong.

Taking Xu Youtu's strategy of Runan as an example, everything else is false, and what really impressed Liu Bei was the intelligence network in his hands and the connection with Yuan Shao's old department. With this relationship, Liu Bei has the resources to snatch food from Cao Cao's mouth, and other benefits, whether they can get it or not, are still far away, Liu Bei is such a pragmatic person, he will definitely not think so much.

Guan Ning couldn't answer this question, he could only say that this person had not studied the art of war, and Wang Yu would not deny him, and then asked another question: "Shopkeeper Guan, what do you think about the expansion of Gaotang City?" ”

Jia Xu looked at Guan Ning curiously, but didn't notice anything strange about this person, so he turned his head to look at Tian Feng, wondering why Wang Yu put on such an unrelenting posture, as if he had to find out the advantages of this person.

Tian Feng shrugged his shoulders and said that he didn't know either. After thinking about it, his eyes drooped slightly, and his eyes fell on a book with new ink, so as to signal to Jia Xu.

This thing is Qingzhou's new staff file, and Jia Xu can understand at a glance that there must be a shortage of people in some places. The little lord of his own family is very paranoid in some aspects, for example, he believes that there are more pragmatic talents in businessmen than in celebrities.

Jia Xu does not recognize this law very much, but it cannot be denied that businessmen do have more experience in dealing with people than ordinary people. And these people are usually very careful, and the results of performing those tedious and undifficult tasks are indeed far greater than those who are accustomed to being high.

Wang Yu's style, the two of them have long been accustomed to it, but Guan Ning is extremely uncomfortable.

Although he had the intention of abandoning business and politics in advance, and was also trying to inquire about the details of the shogunate's assessment, he was still stunned by Wang Yu's straightforward three questions.

"Or say hello," Wang Yu was not annoyed, waved his hand, and changed the question: "Guan shopkeeper, outsiders say that you have passed through the trick among the generals, so you have seized the opportunity in the construction of the new city." But the matter of the new city will be agreed with Yuan Hao two days ago, and you build a shop in Layue, isn't this the ability of an unpredictable prophet? ”

Wang Yu's tone was very peaceful, but there was a hint of questioning in his tone, with his majesty, even if there was only a hint of questioning, in Guan Ning's ears, it was enough to be thrilling, after all, he was just a businessman with a very low social status, where could he resist this?

Guan Ning hurriedly explained: "Don't misunderstand, I just heard that the prince will meet the Hebei heroes on the day of the Lantern Festival, thinking that during this time, the soldiers and civilians from all over the world gather, there must be a place to have a pastime." Later, I heard that the prince had given an order. The burial of the corpse needs to be ten miles away from Gaotang City, and I guessed that the prince would have the intention of moving the governance office to Gaotang and expanding Gaotang City, so ......"

"Sure enough, it's you!" Wang Yu stroked his palms and smiled: "Have you ever talked to others?" ”

Guan Ding didn't know the bottom of his heart, and replied hesitantly: "It's just some old friends......"

"Good." Wang Yu praised it thoughtlessly, this time he learned from the previous experience, and did not ask those big questions, but asked relatively specific: "The layout of shops and residences in the outer city of the new city." What are your thoughts? ”

"In the opinion of the lower tube...... Guan Ning finally understood that the prince did not mean to ask the teacher for guilt, but simply to test his own talents. Thinking about this section, he has nothing to support, and he is in good spirits at the moment. The answer is like a stream: "What the prince wants to expand is not a metropolis in the usual sense, but more like a huge camp." ”

"Not bad." Wang Yu smiled and nodded.

He didn't study history, but he still knew a lot about the talents of the Three Kingdoms era, but he couldn't think of which one was good at engineering construction. But he still knows. The ancient Chinese construction technology was quite superb, and there were many exquisitenesses, such as site selection, layout, road paving, building construction, and even the problem of sewers.

It's no joke. Completely different from the cities of ancient Europe, Wang Yu has seen that as early as the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the cities of China have considered the problem of urban drainage.

It's a college question. Wang Yu didn't know anything about this, and Tian Feng and Jia Xu couldn't help much. And the construction of the city is also not a playhouse. Although Wang Yu didn't plan to build Gaotang City like Luoyang, he didn't want to make it look like a big village.

Therefore, talents in urban planning need to be tapped urgently. As far as Wang Yu currently knows, ancient architecture and Kanyu are mixed together, if you can find the legendary Nanhua Old Immortal, the eight achievements are on the right path, in addition, Wang Yu really has no clue.

Tian Feng provided some information, several of the master builders he knew were now in Chang'an, and one of them, Wang Yu, had also seen it, that is, one of the five envoys sent by Dong Zhuo who was almost killed by Yuan Shao, and would be the master craftsman Wu Xun.

This is a bit far away and can't quench the thirst, even if you send someone to catch up with Xu Shu and let him find a way to contact Wu Xun, it will take half a year later, too slow.

Therefore, Wang Yu planned to dig up a similar one by himself, and together with the builders in the general's mansion, he would discuss the construction of this city first.

happened to catch up with Guan Ning to apply, saying that he had a younger brother named Guan Ping. Of course, Wang Yu knew who Guan Ping was, and while he was overjoyed, he asked people to verify it by the way, but he accidentally found that Guan Ning's person was very interesting, so there was today's examination.

At the moment, it seems that the situation is developing on the bright side.

"If it is the usual idea of building a city, I don't dare to say anything in the future, but since the prince wants to keep everything simple, then I can say a few words in the next. At that time, Guanjiazhuang was destroyed by floods, and later rebuilt, all relying on the guidance of a passing Taoist chief, and I have a little experience in this regard......"

"Since there is no need for a city wall, then the city can be built according to the topography, in an arc shape, layer by layer, outward...... The advantage of this is that it leaves room for future expansion, and when there are more people, it will be layered on top of each other......"

"The city wall does not need to be demolished, only the city gate is widened, it is convenient to enter and exit, so that it is directly under it, and even the moat does not need to be filled, since it does not go out and does not enter the army, only a few wooden bridges need to be built, which is both beautiful and saves the construction period......"

"There are also buildings in the city, and there are many trees in this vicinity, so if you only want to be the owner, and do not emphasize the beauty, you can build them in the simplest way...... I know a way to build a big wooden house in one day as long as there are raw materials, and the inside is spacious, but the appearance is not very good-looking. And ......"

Guan Ning's statement is an uncontrollable posture.

Jia Xu and Tian Feng glanced at each other from time to time, and they couldn't imagine what kind of scene the city built like this would be. Wang Yu listened to it with relish, he couldn't be more familiar with the city built in this way, isn't it the second and third rings of later generations? Sure enough, there are talents among the people.

It took more than two hours to get this argument right.

Jia Xu listened to the beginning, then yawned and left, his old man was busy, but he didn't have time to talk here; Tian Feng was more dedicated, but halfway through hearing it, Guan Ning said about how to choose timber, how to dig sewers, and Wang Yu's water intake problems, which completely dispelled his curiosity, so he also left.

Tian Feng didn't yawn very kindly, but just slandered a few words in his heart, feeling that Wang Yu was not doing his job and wasting time in building these trails.

Wang Yu completely ignored the whereabouts of the two major military divisions, and he was fully immersed in the development of the Chengguan Brigade. As soon as the snow melts, Tuntian will be launched, but as a few counties on the battlefield, people's livelihood has been damaged quite severely, and the people who have lost their homes may have to be distracted to repair their houses.

If you build a house in this way provided by Guan Ning, you will be free from these troubles.

At the same time, the newly built urban management brigade also has a source of income, which is well integrated into the new policy, and a package of problems such as city construction can be solved.

As for artistry, feng shui or something, it is not in Wang Yu's consideration at all, what he wants to build is not a famous city through the ages, but a real center of commerce.

Practical is the best.

"Very good, from today onwards, you are the first captain of my Qingzhou Chengguan Brigade." Wang Yu patted Guan Ning's shoulder and encouraged happily: "Captain Guan, do a good job!" ”
