Chapter 314: Post-Disaster Screening and Filling in the Gaps

The first wave of supplies needed to be transported by the army, and at the same time, the army was needed to open the roads that were covered by winter snow and ice.

The second batch of supplies followed the path of the army led by Zhao An, and then transported over, although it was a little slower, but it could also help the people of Yanzhou, so that as many people as possible could survive.

And the third batch of materials can almost be transported through the canal or even the Yellow River, because after a month of precipitation.

This section of the canal, and even the Yellow River itself, is quite tightly frozen, so there is no transportation problem.

The Yongji Canal was built to facilitate the transportation from Yecheng to the area south of the Yellow River, but it was inevitable that there were two seasons of the year when it was inconvenient to use, one was when it was frozen, and the other was when it melted.

Basically, not long after the second batch of materials was transported, Xi Jian had already sent someone to write a letter to inform him of the snow disaster relief situation.

At least the situation has stabilized, and then there are enough cold supplies to help people survive the winter.

Liu Tai immediately ordered to continue to dispatch supplies to Yanzhou, and at the same time called Cao Wei over and asked him to send people to organize forced labor in Yanzhou to help the people build the kind of collective houses that can be centrally heated.

Of course, don't feel that this thing is advanced, it is probably a relatively large ondol, but this ondol is boiling water for a long time, so it is generally built to directly lead river water into the cauldron, and at the same time the bottom layer is calcined.

Therefore, this room will be used as a bathhouse for buying and selling boiling water and providing bathing functions.

Because the coal is the internal price, or directly transported to the house by way of transfer, it is somewhat subsidized by the government, and the calcined heat is used to heat a large circle of houses around.

This is one of the important facilities for Liu Tai to promote coal instead of firewood, but it can only be built in areas with relatively high population density.

Because even if there is a subsidy from the imperial court, if you want to maintain this facility, you need a fairly high population density.

After all, it costs a certain amount of money to sell boiled water to the people, or to let the people enjoy a bath or pedicure.

This thing is a bit like infrastructure for the people in the north, a bit like a school or a hospital, so this thing is the same as a school and a hospital, and it is still a relatively scattered housing structure that cannot be maintained.

But this time, taking advantage of the snow disaster, the people in the Yanzhou area were integrated, and the villages were forcibly merged into villages, and new villages were established according to the needs of the imperial court.

Each disaster itself is not worth singing about, but the people who survive each disaster will develop with a stronger attitude.

"So Uncle Cao, you should put aside the road construction for a while, and with the help of this snow disaster, first recruit the local people to build a new tiled house to protect from the wind and rain!" Liu Tai said solemnly to Cao Wei.

"I'll take care of this!" Cao Wei heard Liu Tai's order, and nodded solemnly.

To tell the truth, although Cao Wei has basically only done all his tasks after Liu Tai took power, only Cao Wei himself knows how much power he has.

Even if he has gradually split the water transportation affairs to Wang Bo and handed over his road construction to Guo Pu, even so, he really needs to start with any big projects.

Especially when it comes to urban construction, the entire Han only has the most experience.

It was under such circumstances that Cao Wei immediately understood that Liu Tai hoped that he would guide these victims out first through his work, and not let the victims continue to be immersed in the disasters brought about by the snow disaster.

After all, if he survives, that person will always continue to live, and this construction is to help the people reconnect with the world.

To tell the truth, those who have experienced great calamities, especially after everything they have used have been ruthlessly destroyed or erased, do not give them mercy to the way they can help them, but help them reconnect with the world as much as possible, and let them know that although they have suffered disasters, they have not been abandoned by the world.

Because people are often very fragile and sensitive when they are in a disaster, for the imperial court, if they are appeased, they will become the converts of the court, and if they are not appeased, they will become the destroyers of the entire dynasty.

And the way for them to reconnect with the world is to work, because as long as people's bodies survive, they will gradually break free from the mire of grief, because time itself is the best antidote to pain.

And Cao Wei has followed Liu Tai a lot, Liu Tai's governance style is also used to it, basically encountering disasters, Liu Tai has never admired resting with the people, on the contrary, Liu Tai will dispatch a lot of resources to let the people take action.

Let them work, let them earn money and food, let them really feel that they are still alive, this is Liu Tai's way of governing the disaster.

It can only be said that this method is quite in Liu Tai's style, after all, a lot of grain, grass and materials need to be consumed in the process, but Liu Tai would rather cut down on food and clothing, so as to squeeze out more materials and build towards the disaster area.

Of course, this was just Cao Wei's idea, so he respectfully accepted the task, and immediately recruited subordinate officials to dispatch materials, and went to Yanzhou with the third batch of materials.

Liu Tai naturally didn't know Cao Wei's thoughts, after all, for Liu Tai, money was really not a problem.

After all, their own salt tickets have gradually replaced the role of currency, which makes it very convenient for them to dispatch supplies.

As for the supplies themselves, although they fought a war, they did not use their own reserves, although the scope of the continuation was quite large, but in fact, it only lasted for three to four months, and Chu Yi himself was able to appease it.

For Liu Tai, the snowstorm penetrated what Liu Tai believed was an entire transportation channel through the Yongji Canal to the Yellow River.

Originally, Liu Tai thought that the emergence of a canal like Yongji Canal would allow him to save road construction first, concentrate resources to complete the unification first, and then slowly think about road construction later, but now it seems that road construction must also keep up!

It's just that for Liu Tai himself, this snow disaster may not be all bad, at least sometimes natural disasters come, and it is an opportunity to sort out the place, especially for Liu Tai now.

After all, when he was crusading against Yanzhou, he chose to appease the local people as much as possible, and accepted the surrender of Zu Yue and Huan Xuan.

Therefore, although the government military system and military history system have been added to the grassroots level, it is really not much when it comes to adjustment.

Under such circumstances, this sudden winter snow has really helped me solve a lot of troubles.

After all, as long as the work of collecting villages and merging villages is completed for the people, not to mention that they can completely cut off the family's control over them, but at least they have a chance to survive by relying on the various basic work given by the imperial court.

If you want to say that there is any big development, it is natural to look at the opportunity, but at least ask for food and clothing, for survival, at least you don't need to look at the face of the family.

"Seeking the Future?" Liu Tai set his sights on Chu Yi.

Chu Yu stopped the pen in his hand, because Liu Tai had completed the construction of the framework for many things, and Chu Tai needed to add details, and then hand it over to the people below to do, and at this moment he couldn't help but raise his head when he heard Liu Tai's words.

"I want to add something to the meritorious system, such as what the army does when it encounters extreme situations and dispatches the army to rescue and rescue disasters is also regarded as military merit and added to the military merit system!"

Hearing this, Chu Yu frowned and said:

If this is indeed a good thing for the soldiers, it can also reward the enthusiasm of the soldiers to help the people.

But since ancient times, non-military merits have not been knighted, and if there is a loophole, I am afraid that someone will use this matter to make a fuss in the future.

After all, there are obvious loopholes in the system, and I think future generations will definitely take advantage of the loopholes! ”

"Well, it's worth reminding!" Liu Tai heard Chu Yi's words, nodded in agreement, and then said,

"All things related to emergency rescue and disaster relief are all set up as collective meritorious awards, and if individual awards are involved, they must be posthumously sealed in the process of emergency rescue and disaster relief.

If the body cannot be recovered and it is not possible to confirm whether it is dead, it will be treated as a sacrifice, but it will take one year to posthumously seal it. ”

Chu Yu heard Liu Tai's words, but nodded and said, "What is the upper limit of this posthumous seal?" ”

"Kannaihou who can't be inherited!" Liu Tai thought for a moment and said to Chu Yu.

Chu Yu nodded, with the scope of Liu Tai's plan, he only needs to embed the corresponding policies into the military merit system that he established at the beginning.

Although Chu Yu felt that Liu Tai had the feeling of attaching too much importance to the military, he thought about it for a while, and when the war ended in the future, the world was unified, and the surrounding Siyi also surrendered, then he would need to find a source for the army after all.

Under such circumstances, the soldiers have a channel for promotion through non-war, especially this matter can also be beneficial to pacify the people in the disaster area, which is naturally worth advocating.

And if the disaster really happens, as long as it is not the kind of disaster that is rare in a century, in fact, it is the local government soldiers and military history system that play a more role, rather than the soldiers.

So through this matter, it is the grassroots soldiers who benefit more, so Chu Yu thought about it, but he didn't think that there was anything wrong with this kind of thing that allowed officers to gain military merits in disaster relief.

On the contrary, it is really a good channel for the government soldiers at the bottom who are difficult to select due to the limited number of soldiers.

"It's just that in this case, the military history system needs more manpower, and in each government military system, at least three military historians are needed to record the situation during the disaster relief!" Chu Yu thought thoughtfully.

For Chu Yu, the system of government soldiers and soldiers designed by Liu Tai can only be said to be a non-soldier system suitable for Liu Tai's way of leading troops, but whether there is any problem with this kind of system and whether it will be exposed in the future, to be honest, Chu Yu can't see it.

But Chu Yu very much admired the military history system that Liu Tai came up with, this kind of existence as a third party, in fact, the supervision of rights is very good, military history only has the right to record facts, and then report them, and has no other rights.

However, with regard to the rights and interests of such records and knowledge, there is a very strong supervision and deterrence of the rights themselves.

This system, no one guards, just a simple record.

For people who have no bottom line in their hearts, such as Jia Xu Chengyu and the like, they don't mind that they will leave a reputation as a poisoner or a ruthless person in the history books in the future, and for those who really have a responsibility, they are not afraid of how ugly they will be in the military history.

Because for them, it is what they should do to govern their own jurisdiction and let the people get help.

But for the vast majority of people in officialdom, they are just ordinary people.

When they understand that their words and deeds will be recorded, and then sent to the court to be carefully reviewed, then they will naturally become much more cautious.

In this process, there will naturally be non-stick type officials, but more of them dare not do anything wrong to the people at the bottom, thinking that if they become officials, they are dumb officials who can break the law and discipline and cover the sky with one hand.

This is where Chu Yu appreciates this system, because these military histories can play a good role in educating and restraining the locality, and their existence will not have an impact on some determined officials, but their existence does raise the lower limit of officials.

After all, before Tang Taizong insisted on looking at his own life, historians have always been a very respected profession.

It's just that after Tang Taizong read the living notes, someone took the lead, and the emperors behind him did the same, which directly led to the more the later history books, the more people doubted the authenticity of the history books, and even needed enough wild history to support the official history books.

And the status of the historian naturally gradually declined with the official history, and naturally this status gradually declined.

But now, historians are still a respected profession, especially during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, there were many elite historians who tried their best to record the history of the Northern and Southern Dynasties in detail.

And the historian can make the emperor feel a headache, and now let the historian supervise the officials, even if they are feudal officials, in the face of these military histories that are only written but not said, where can they feel at ease.

At least they know that when they were officials, they benefited one party, and these military histories may not record their own affairs clearly, but if they do something wrong, these military histories will definitely leave them stinking for thousands of years.

Although military history only has the right to record history and report it, it does not involve any other rights at all.

However, whether it is a local leader or a leader in the army, he is even more vigilant than anyone else in his fear of military history.

Because they are really likely to let themselves be ruined and leave a stench for thousands of years, the most important thing is that they and he are not subordinate to each other, and they don't know what they write in this small book of military history and report it.

Therefore, in Chu Ao's view, the military history system is an excellent system for the long-term stability of the Han Dynasty, but the only thing that makes Chu Ao feel a headache is that the military history system itself needs a large number of literate talents, and this kind of talent itself is the most scarce in this society.

"So the scale of military history goes up, and I can only look forward to the next imperial examination.

According to what the king said, it will take at least three to five years before the next imperial examination will be held! ”

Chu Yi couldn't help but sigh, "Why can't talents grow immediately after cutting like leeks!" ”
