Chapter 79 Delivery of Territory

"Kong Ming, now Cao Cao has moved his governance office to Yecheng, and officials, soldiers and people from all over the country are moving in a big way. Can we take the opportunity to send troops and take Wancheng? ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head: "No." The current Wancheng does not have much population, and it is useless to take it. The goal of the lord is still Jingzhou, and only by trying to get Jingzhou can he Tubashu again. Only with the land of Bashu, the lord has the foundation to achieve the emperor's business. ”

Liu Bei nodded: "Back then, Gaozu was based on Bashu, and then won the world. Now that the Han family is dying, we must restore the ambition of our ancestors and revive the Han Dynasty! ”

Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan lightly and said: "Liang will assist the lord Kuang to restore the Han family, but now Lu Bu, Sun Quan, and Cao Cao are getting stronger and stronger. The lord can't be left behind, so the Tujing plan must be accelerated! ”

Liu Bei pretended to sigh, and he couldn't bear it again, what kind of friendship with the same clan and so on.

But in the end, for the sake of justice, Jingzhou was to be taken.

Anyway, it means that Liu Biaokuang can't recover the big man. So, he has to come.

And to win Jingzhou, Liu Bei Group has to take at least two roads.

The first is to try to win over the Jingzhou Shi clan, and the second is to provoke the fight between the Cai clan and the Kuai clan.

It is also equivalent to the struggle for the position of the son.

Only after these two families are inextricably fought, and both are defeated, can Liu Bei fish in troubled waters and reap the benefits.

Time flies, and it's winter in the blink of an eye.

At this time, Cao Cao put forward a request to hand over the territory with Lu Bu.

In short, his troops and officials were withdrawn, and these territories were given to Lu Bu, and Lu Bu took care of them.

For such a big event, it is not up to the court to make a final decision.

At this moment, how can the officials not scold Cao Cao.

Cao Cao not only moved all the young and strong away, but also handed over the land boundary in this winter.

Those who were left behind were all old and weak, and there was not much food left at all.

If Lu Bu doesn't care, he will definitely lose the hearts of the people.

After the hundred officials vented their emotions, Chen Gong finally said: "Dare to ask the king, how to deal with the land of Sizhou?" ”

Lu Bu smiled: "There is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure." The elderly are not completely useless, they are more socially experienced and more mature than the young. Nowadays, our medical conditions have greatly improved, and the life expectancy of human beings will also increase. With the grain reserves we have now, even if we can feed an additional five million people, it will not be a problem. It's just hundreds of thousands of old people, what are you afraid of! ”

Understanding Lu Bu's thoughts, Chen Gong had to ask again: "Now that we have the four states, although the population is not abundant, it also needs to be governed, I don't know what the king thinks?" ”

"It's easy!" Lu Bu took a sip of tea and said: "Relocate all the population, as long as we dispatch now, we should be able to complete this project before the end of the year." ”

"The Great Migration!" Chen Gong exclaimed: "Back then, Dong Zhuo was chaotic and moved from Luoyang to Chang'an, which can be described as full of complaints, with countless deaths and injuries. Now that winter is coming, I am afraid that the people have no desire to migrate! ”

"Humph!" Lu Bu instantly snorted coldly: "This king is not a natural good person, whoever doesn't want to move, then let him fend for himself." The king did not let the people bear any taxes, but also financed a large amount of materials. If you dare to fight with this king, you will bring about your own destruction. ”

Lu Bu was angry, and the hundred officials were silent.

Lu Bu immediately got up and walked to the front of the big map: "This king has already chosen the main railway line, from east to west, they are Xiapi, Pengcheng, Xuchang, Luoyang, and Chang'an. After arriving in Chang'an, he went north to Anding to prepare for the future Northern Expedition to the grassland. One to the west to Longxi, in preparation for the pacification of Xiliang. ”

Lu Bu turned around again, faced Chen Gong and said, "Right Prime Minister!" ”

"The minister is here!" Pang Tong immediately responded.

"You immediately send troops to various places to relocate the people, and move all the population to the nearby cities around the main railway line, and be sure to complete the relocation before the end of the year!"

"Obey the order!"

"Prime Minister Zuo!"

"The minister is here!" Chen Gong's voice corresponded.

"You immediately mobilized supplies and ordered the hundred officials to make a population resettlement plan. There must be no mistake in this matter! ”

"Yes!"

With Lu Bu's order, Xuzhou was almost mobilized.

The army dispatched 50,000 soldiers and horses, and countless logistics personnel of all kinds.

For the sake of a group of old people, Lu Bu actually consumed a lot of national strength.

In fact, in troubled times, ordinary ordinary old people do not live long at all.

Cao Cao really left only about 200,000.

Because of the useful population, they were all moved to Jizhou by Cao Cao.

Therefore, the material loss is not as large as Lu Bu imagined.

What really costs you is more manpower.

But Lu Bu's move was very popular.

And now, although Lu Bu has won the land of the four states for nothing, it is actually empty land.

There is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles, which is simply a true portrayal.

And Lu Bu, who had gained territory, only deployed his troops in the cities around the railway line.

Now that the population and productivity are insufficient, it is impossible for LΓΌ Bu to build a wide range of railways.

Therefore, for this railway, Lu Bu is trying to choose a straight city.

It is the key cities of Xiapi, Pengcheng, Xuchang, Luoyang and Chang'an that are walking.

In the future, the railway will continue westward across the entire Eurasian continent.

It's a truly massive project, and now it's finally on the construction agenda.

Although he had previously received 500,000 slaves from the Wa Kingdom, LΓΌ Bu distributed these slaves to heavy physical positions such as mining, smelting, mining rocks, building canals, and transporting wharves in various mines.

Although it seems that there is a lot of manpower, in order to expand production capacity, Lu Bu is also far from enough.

And now that half of the Wa State has been requisitioned, Lu Bu estimates that he is afraid that he can only plunder another 500,000 slaves from the Wa State.

Because the population of the current Wa Kingdom is actually not as large as that of later generations.

If all of them were captured as slaves, they would definitely all be opposed, and they would not be able to unify the Japanese kingdom at all

In this way, Lu Bu has already settled, and all the subsequent slaves will be taken to build the railway.

He didn't believe it, and he couldn't fix it with hundreds of thousands of people.

And with the resources of the Japanese State, Lu Bu is now not short of food.

What he lacks is only labor.

But when he thought of building the railway, Lu Bu was a little difficult.

Because of the experience of later generations, he certainly knew that the standard track of the railway was 1435 mm. The origin of the history is because of the distance of the tracks of the Roman Empire's horse-drawn carriages.

But in the same way, Lu Bu also knew that this track was becoming more and more unable to meet the requirements of future generations.

Especially when Lu Bu remembered the crowding of the train when he was a child, the sourness of his stinky feet, he will never forget it.

If you have a choice, the wider the railway, the better.

However, the wider the track, the higher the construction cost.

It doesn't matter much if you build a bridge and dig a cave, the cost is several times or even dozens of times.

What's more, the technical requirements are very high.

Especially for bridges, broad gauges mean higher load-bearing. If the bridge doesn't meet the standard, it will definitely collapse.

The reason why most of the later generations adopted the international standard of 1435 mm was because when the railway was first built, there was not such a high and great demand.

Then, the railroad has been built in large quantities, and it is only natural that this standard can only be used. If you want to change it later, the cost is too big and too big, which is equivalent to scrapping all the original railways and trains.

Lu Bu has experience in later generations, and of course he doesn't want to go back to the old path.

However, if the broad gauge was built, it would greatly delay his expedition to the north and west.

After struggling for a while, Lu Bu still decided to use broad gauge. You know, that's the specification that determines the whole world.

Since I have experience in the future, of course, I chose the best specifications from the beginning.

The original standard of rails was decided by the horse's butt of the Romans, and now, it is up to him to decide.

After thinking about it for a long time, Lu Bu thought of a way.

That's his height.

Because he has always felt that he is very tall, but how high it is, I don't know!

Lu Bu quickly pressed against the wall, and when he looked at the number, he was instantly startled.
