Chapter 197: Ocean Genes
In the face of Liu Tai's proposal to build this canal, several people present also looked at each other.
Chu Yi was still thinking about it, but Cao Wei stood up and said, "It's still the county prince who has foresight, and I definitely support this matter."
Now that I have also built Guanggu City, I just have my hands free, so it is better for the county lord to hand over this task to me! ”
Wang Sang Sorghum and others didn't understand why Cao Wei would take the initiative to support him at this time, and he also took the job.
Zhang Song also came out at this time and said: "The waterway from Youzhou to Tianjin should be built, so that it is convenient for us to transfer troops!" ”
Chu Yi looked at their support one after another, and after thinking about it, he understood what these guys were planning in their hearts.
Because this waterway is not built, in order to effectively manage it, Liu Tai may have to relocate the administrative office.
For example, the relocation of the administrative office to Nanpi City in Jizhou is the most convenient way to manage the current effective control range.
And this is naturally unacceptable for the people of Qingzhou or for the people left behind by Wang Mi.
After all, Lao Tzu has been fighting for so long, and as a result, all of you Jizhou people have taken the benefits, why!
Especially Cao Wei, he came to Liu Tai to work hard to build Guanggu City, and as a result, the city was built, and then Liu Tai because of the inconvenience of Youzhou's governance, maybe his Guanggu City was built in vain.
Now how good is Liu Tai's initiative to propose the construction of the canal, otherwise would he have to transfer the administrative office and deny that his hard work over the years has not been successful, wouldn't it be to erase his own merits.
It was precisely because it was related to his own vital interests that Cao Wei was the first to react and jumped out to support Liu Tai's canal plan.
Chu Yu naturally wouldn't go against Cao Wei because of this matter, and he didn't dare to say anything when he looked at the other guys.
It's normal to think about it, now the two biggest forces under Liu Tai are the veteran faction created by Liu Tai himself, and the other group is the people left behind by Wang Mi, and the vast majority of these two are Qingzhou people.
When they really understand that this matter is related to the overall interests of Qingzhou, they will definitely choose to safeguard the interests of Qingzhou.
And Liu Tai saw that Zhang Song and Cao Wei both supported his proposal, knowing that this plan was passed, and continued:
"The next step is to build a port city at the entrance of the North Canal into Bohai Bay.
The port city's first purpose was, of course, to take care of the construction of the entire canal.
Secondly, it is also in order to coordinate the resources of Youzhou, and it is convenient to trade with the resources of Qingzhou through shipping.
So, I was thinking about who should be in charge of this project.
Now that you have the courage to take on the heavy responsibility, then the task of building this new city will be entrusted to you.
Let's name the city Jinkou first, and when the city is completed, Cao Changshi will personally name the city! ”
I'll leave it to me? When Cao Wei heard Liu Tai's words, he was more or less at a loss.
Cao Wei didn't expect that he had only built Guanggu City for three years on his front foot, and a new city on his heel was thrown to him, and it was not only a port city, but also a canal from Youzhou City to Jinkou, I am afraid that it would be at least three years of work!
"Cao Changshi, what's the problem?" Liu Tai looked at Cao Wei who didn't answer, and couldn't help asking.
"We are willing to take over this important task and will definitely build this canal and Jinkou." Cao Wei said seriously.
Liu Tai nodded, and then continued, "Then let's go back to the agricultural issue!" ”
"Come back, ......" Hearing Liu Tai's words, Ge Xin couldn't help but sigh.
For him, these things are only related to the army, and even if the army is expanded, it will not be fruitful until the census of Youzhou and the land clearance come out.
As for now, Ge Xin said that he was completely listening to the book of heaven.
Liu Tai glanced at Ge Xin fiercely, and at this moment Ge Xin could only choose to close his mouth and shrink his neck.
Liu Tai continued: "Recently, the weather has been getting colder and colder, and the winter is getting longer and longer. Therefore, we need to pay more attention to agricultural production and find agricultural crops that can be warmer. ”
"Leave this matter to me!" Meng Dong said, "After all, I have been looking for mandala flowers all along, so it should be regarded as looking for one more medicine, if I can really find this crop, it will be considered a great merit!" ”
"I heard that there is a plant called the white mat in the west of the Silk Road, the flowers are like silk, white as the full moon, I hope to get some over, I want to see if I can weave, if you can, you can pay attention to it!" Liu Tai said to Meng Dong.
"Yes!" Meng Dong was relieved when he heard that he was not looking for everything from scratch, and saluted Liu Tai.
"In addition, in order to cope with the increasingly cold weather, I plan to set up a professional coal department to manage coal affairs.
First of all, I looked for coal in the mountainous Beiping County of Youzhou, and produced an extra pound of coal every year, so that one more person could survive in winter! Liu Tai said solemnly.
"The county prince is merciful." Everyone praised Liu Tai.
However, Chu Yu stepped forward and asked, "This division is newly built, I don't know who governs the county public?" ”
"Xi Jian!" Liu Tai said casually.
"Me?" Xi Jian, who has been doing chores by Liu Tai's side all along, didn't expect Liu Tai to call himself.
Liu Tai nodded as a matter of course, "You are quite popular with me in handling affairs by my side, so what is there to worry about me when this coal division is handed over to you to deal with, maybe you will need to support the coal of the whole world in the future!" ”
"Obey the orders of Ming Gong!" When Xi Jian heard Liu Tai's words, he hurriedly saluted.
Liu Tai looked at Xi Jian and agreed, but he couldn't help but feel a lot more relieved.
To be honest, before he obtained Youzhou and Jizhou, many of his affairs were arranged out of military considerations.
But after he obtained Youzhou and Jizhou, because Shi Le was cautious, he had no reason to fight.
Liu Kun picked up Wang Jun's inheritance, and his strength skyrocketed, and it was inconvenient for him to fight.
The most important thing is that the place he occupies now is already a bit long and narrow, and to send soldiers from Qingzhou to Youzhou, he needs to use Bohai to dispatch soldiers.
If you continue to occupy the land, you will expose your flaws, so the only way to solve it is to swallow Shile.
But back to that sentence, he has no reason to fight Shile now, which makes Liu Tai have to change his thinking.
At least in the next few days, before the contradictions between the Xiongnu and the Han people within the Xiongnu and Han countries completely broke out, he still focused on development.
Don't say it, at least equip your whole army with hundreds of scale armor forged from steel, and think that as long as you don't encounter both water and fire, then no matter how powerful Shi Le is, he can push it flat.
Therefore, the next step is to definitely develop the last word.
Liu Tai took a deep breath, his eyes fell on Tian Yu and Su Jun and said, "Which of the two of you wants to be in charge of the First Fleet in Jiaozhou Bay."
This fleet will definitely deal with the Sima family in the future, but let me say it first, we don't have a shadow of when we will deal with the Sima family.
Instead, he chose the Second Fleet of Bohai County, which is mainly responsible for the deployment of troops in Bohai County, and may even need to assist the land army to attack Murong Xianbei in the future, so that Liaoxi County can return to our Han Dynasty.
However, the fleet in Bohai County needs to help the local people to a certain extent, and even set up a special sailor academy to teach the people navigation knowledge, so that they can drive big boats to fish in the Bohai Sea. ”
"Let the people go fishing in big boats?" When Su Jun heard this, he said thoughtfully,
"Even if our retired ships are good, can the people really afford to use these boats to fish?"
Su Jun was more or less skeptical when he heard Liu Tai's words, not that Su Jun doubted Liu Tai, but that Su Jun's family was a shipbuilder, and knew how poor the fishermen were, even if they fished all their lives, they might not be able to afford the price of this retired ship.
After all, this thing is a consumable for the army, but it can really be used for a lifetime for fishermen.
"It's okay, ordinary people can't afford to pay for it, but some coastal families will eventually get money and food!"
Liu Tai waved his hand and said, "And if there is no way for individuals to buy, I also allow collective purchases."
As long as you want to sell it, you can find a way to sell it to the people after all, but I think you are all mistaken.
You are a navy, and the navy is different from the army, and your retired ships can be sold to the people at a reasonable price as long as they are dismantled.
But the army, the weapons on their bodies are easy to say, but even if the armor is updated, it must be handed over to the official for unified disposal! ”
When everyone heard Liu Tai's words, they thought about it for a while, but they didn't feel that there was anything wrong.
After all, since ancient times, the armor has been the strictest, not to mention, Zhou Yafu can almost be regarded as the military god of the Han Jingdi era, but it is also gone because of the armor.
Since then, all the families have understood that it is negotiable for you to rebel in the Han Dynasty, and it is certain to hide the armor!
For Liu Tai, he needs to find a way to preserve the navy, the most important of which is the need for the navy to have the ability to update warships every year.
Needless to say, the policy of building new warships and selling old ones to replenish the treasury is certainly inevitable.
Maybe the navy will make a profit from this in the future, but it doesn't matter to Liu Tai, because for Liu Tai, even if the navy is corrupt, at least it will not be corrupt until the ship is built.
What I need is to ensure that the industrial system of the entire ship can be constantly updated and iterated, compared with the fact that the corruption of soldiers is really a trivial matter.
To tell the truth, this time when Wang Jun was defeated, he looked around for a while, and the surrounding forces either had no excuse, or they didn't want to fight.
Don't say it, even Murong Xianbei himself doesn't want to fight.
It's very simple, at this time, the Murong Xianbei clan is not strong enough, even if he wants to fight him, he needs to attack in two ways, sea and land in parallel, which will also cost him.
Now in that ghost place in Liaodong, the cost of attacking once by himself and the food consumed, Liu Tai calculated it and felt that he was purely crazy to fight such a war.
This is also to encourage the Duan tribe to be responsible for robbing the Xianbei people, handing them over to their sinicization, and then through the internal struggle of Xianbei, so as to accelerate the formation of two Xianbei forces, and constantly absorb the Xianbei tribes on the Liaodong Peninsula to converge on these two tribes.
When they reach the size of their population, especially when their population can afford to send their own troops as slaves, then this is the time to send their own troops.
And when Liu Tai made arrangements for the surrounding forces one by one, Liu Tai more or less had a feeling of being at a loss when he drew his sword and looked around.
In this case, Liu Tai returned to his original intention, that is, to inject marine genes into the Han.
At least when you lay the foundation, you need to pay attention to the ocean.
It is also necessary to let future generations understand that not only Guanzhong is the foundation of the emperor, but also the Bohai Sea itself is enough to support a large ranch of the foundation of the emperor.
In this case, I need to invest resources in the navigation industry to a certain extent.
He needs to create a new political class that is different from the family based on land and knowledge.
This class needs to be more ambitious, to pursue advanced science and technology, and to have access to more resources than on land, and even to be able to give birth to a literati who can support their own theories.
His eyes are set on the ocean, a family that is different from the combination of land and knowledge, and the new class formed by the combination of the sea and knowledge will be what he needs!
Liu Tai didn't know, but his rest in the next time just helped him to promote the birth of this new class.
All in all, if you unify the world, you will definitely need to suppress the class of the family, and you will not be able to use the power of this class too much in the process of unifying the world, and you will need to replace the old family with a new class.
Instead of a group of families falling, there is a new group of families.
Even if he unifies the world, what changes will he have to the history of China?
It's better to eat and wait for death, and then hand it over to Li Shimin hundreds of years later to be the Heavenly Khan.
It is precisely because of this consciousness that after thinking carefully, Liu Tai understands that the development of the Bohai Sea and the development of shipping is inevitable for him, and his future policies will definitely be biased towards the ocean to a certain extent.
Therefore, I took advantage of this opportunity to recuperate and incubate this class.
And Tian Yu and Su Jun, these two people are suitable to be the family of this old era, as well as the nobles of the new era.
Su Jun and Tian Yu glanced at each other, and it was obvious that it was time for the final choice.
Everyone understands that attacking the Sima clan must be the last battle to unify the world, and if it is, it will definitely be a battle that will be famous in history.
In the end, it was Tian Yu who stepped forward and said, "Leave the construction of Jiaozhou Bay to General Su, I have no regrets in my life about the surprise attack on Youzhou, so let someone take charge of the transportation!" ”
When Su Jun heard Tian Yu's words, he also knew that Tian Yu planned to give up his position to himself, and his eyes couldn't help but show a little gratitude.
And Liu Tai nodded when he heard this, no matter who the two of them were, they all thought it was appropriate anyway.
Because Tian Jun is the kind of son of a family who is reborn from the ruins, while Su Jun has a relatively complete industry system backed by his family, these two people have their own advantages.
Now that Tian Tai has taken the initiative to stand up, there is less difficulty for Liu Tai to choose.
At this moment, Liu Tai said to Tian Yu with a smile, "The ocean of the big man will be entrusted to you!" ”
