Chapter 490: Yuji

The announcement of the fifth relationship really caused an uproar. The officials who respect him as gods all showed their butts all at once.

The one who followed Geng Chun to block the Red Eyebrows was Gu Gong, the prefect of Qinghe. He opposed not only retaining the Chengtouzilu to recruit the Red Eyebrows, but also opposing the control of the river.

"My father, therefore, the governor of Liangzhou Gu Yong said that the river is the Chinese classics, and the sage kings will release books when they rise, and the king's way will be destroyed. The reason why it is now overflowing and floating in the mountains and rivers is a disaster. In fact, it is Han, and the new dynasties have caused great harm in the administration of the two new dynasties."

"I have been in the Qinghe River for a long time. I have always known that the rivers have flooded frequently and the migration has become wider and wider. Therefore, since Dayu controlled the flood, the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, they have never heard of river troubles. Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, they have collapsed and collapsed with the collapse of rituals and music."

"Now Your Majesty has inherited the new shortcomings of the Han Dynasty. As long as you repair government affairs internally, the weather will be renewed and the disaster will be eliminated."

Isn’t this the trick of the scholars who deceived Wang Mang at the beginning? By the result, “What China needs is not river governance, but rituals and music.” How is it possible? As long as we return to the third generation, social problems and environmental disasters will disappear.

Wu Lun felt that it was time to make drastic adjustments to Hebei Erqianshi, which had not changed much before, to stabilize the Hebei Erqianshi, which had not changed much.

This guy is not an isolated case. Feng Qin, the prefect of Hanoi who has always admired the fifth reunion, also said this: "Before Hanwu, I have never heard of a disaster of floods in spring and winter. It appears from the rear. When Your Majesty is in good faith, the floods will disappear by themselves, and there is no need to rush to control the water..."

Then the fifth reunion asked Du Shi, the commander of Shuiheng, to come up and explain to Feng Qin why there was no Ling Hong in the past, but now there is one.

Du Shi said: "If the temperature in the warm winter is high, the river will not freeze, and there will naturally be no flood. The temperature in winter is too low, and the temperature difference between upstream and downstream is not large, and the ice age is similar, so it is naturally difficult to have flood."

"However, since the Han Dynasty, this weather has been much colder than during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and then there has been a disaster of floods."

In recent years, the Fifth Reunification has restarted the Tianguan and Taishi. One task assigned to them is to check various calendars, the four seasons and monthly orders, compared with the decades of today, the final conclusion is that the climate is changing and the temperature is slowly getting lower.

In addition to the postponement of the solar term, one evidence is that the bamboo that could grow in Youzhou during the Spring and Autumn Period has now retreated to the front line of Hanoi and is becoming more and more wilted. In the past, "Oranges grow in the south of Huai, they become oranges", but now they are "the oranges are north of the river, and they turn into citrus."

But what they were in was not the so-called "Little Ice Age", but the transition from a warm period to a cold period. As the fifth relationship felt, the temperature was similar to that of two thousand years later. However, the temperature changed a lot. During the Han Dynasty, there were both snowfall in June and ice-free winters. It was also considered that Wang Mang was unlucky. During the past ten years of his reign, there were particularly many extreme climates.

Under this ironic fact, Feng Qin and others changed their words, but they still felt that the weather from warm to cold is still a response from heaven and man, and is linked to politics. As long as the fifth relationship rules and loves the people, the climate will be warm...

After they hit the wall, the powerful ministers from Hebei, led by Pi Tong, began to use another set of sayings to persuade the fifth reunion.

"Although the old way of the Great River is the way of Dayu, the sages do things for generations and are mastered by gods, it is unlikely to change. However, as far as I know, the mouth of the Great River is usually in plains, on the left and right of the East County, with low terrain and loose soil. I heard that when Dayu controlled the river, this area was empty and wasteland, as a place to discharge floods, Wang Mang asked about the strategy for controlling the river during the Xinshishi period, and someone proposed this at that time."

"Now the river is flooding for many years. The new road passes through Dongjun, the plain, and enters the sea in Qingzhou. The red eyebrows of the river under Chengtouzi Road are mostly from this. Anyway, the three places have already been in the graveyard, and the people are mostly refugees and are scattered all over the place. It is better to let it be completely empty. As a place for flood discharge, do not build a civil office in the official pavilion..."

It means that I hope that the fifth reunion can take a blind eye and completely give up the three "yellow flood areas".

Wu Lun was very clear about their concerns. Pi Tong and others were born in Hebei. Although they were loyal to the fifth Lun, they would always consider their hometown. During the Xin Dynasty, the river broke its mouth and moved southeast. One of the reasons why Wang Mang refused to return to the old path was that he was afraid that someone would accidentally not cure the river and return to the north, and the Yuancheng of Weijun was destroyed.

Pi Tong and others also had this concern and said: "We cannot consolidate the wealthy Wei County and Hanoi, and take risks to the destroyed Dong County, and the plains will take risks."

The fifth reunion is not so selfless, and he only told the truth to them: "I have been worried too much, and I don't plan to let the river return to the old way."

It would be fine if the blockage was just broken, but now ten years have passed and it is too late. The old Yellow River channel has long dried up, and the river water will never be able to regain its traces.

The most worrying thing about the fifth reunion is that the unrestrained river is raging more than three counties.

"From Youzhou Bohai, Jizhou Qinghe, Xindu, Hejian, Qingzhou Qiancheng, Jinan, and even most of Yanzhou, they are all threatened by river water."

No one can tell what the climate will be next year, when will the Yellow River fluctuation happen next time? Dozens of counties in the four prefectures have been affected for a long time. It is either the core area that the fifth replies have been controlled, or the place where the army is about to enter, and it will all become an unmanned land. This cost is too great.

Therefore, the Yellow River must be bound within a certain range, and at least it cannot be allowed to move around the Great Plains. This is the first stage of river management. It is not too late to wait for what Pi Tong said, "It is not too late to cure it after the world is unified."

Because the people who originally lived on these lands have been in exile by disasters, which is also a huge threat to the Wei State, which was eager to establish a new order.

Geng Chun is worthy of being the "left prime minister" that the fifth reunites like, and his pattern is much higher than Feng Qin, Pi Tong and others. He not only firmly supports the "declaration of war" of the fifth reunite, but also shows his concerns.

"If the river crisis is not solved, Your Majesty will destroy a bronze horse and a red eyebrows. In less than a few years, another bronze horse and a red eyebrows will emerge in the local area!"

The Yellow River cannot kill them, can we rely on butcher knives and suppression?

Anyway, there are so many Red Eyebrow captives, so how to use them is a big problem. It is better to keep the road at the head of the city and ask him to help collect the Red Eyebrow and the remnants of the bronze horse, and then use the name of "work-for-relief" that the fifth reunion of the Chang'an people, to control these people, and in the name of rebuilding their homes, they will farm and manage rivers. This is the first step to turn refugees into households and all the people.

Dou Rong also took the opportunity to express his opinion: "Your Majesty is so wise. What we need to treat is not just river water, but also these red eyebrows and copper horses are 'turbid flow'!"

Despite Geng Chun and Dou Rong's support, the ministers from Hebei were still very concerned. Feng Qin was worried about the captive red eyebrows and the bronze horses were gathered and rebelled again. He heartily distrusts the mud legs.

Maybe Pi Tong, after silently calculating the calculations in her heart, she felt that the investment was too great, and the food, fodder and wealth for water control still had to be borne by Hebei and Henoi, which invisibly put a huge financial burden on each county.

I have been talking to them that I am dry, but I am still like this. The fifth relationship is indispensable. I have to inject blood into the ministers and talk about my ideals.

He suddenly pointed to the "Yu Gong" map hanging on the wall and sighed: "I see the words in the Book of Xia that in ancient times, the envy of river disasters overflowed, which was particularly harmful to China."

In ancient times, the Yellow River had no embankments. The "yellow flood area" at that time was the vast Hebei Plain. The Yellow River was in a state of flowing, with floods rushing and overflowing into a marsh.

This is China’s memory of the “great flood”, but the subsequent stories are completely different from other civilizations waiting for gods from heaven, or lying straight for the flood to fade away.

"Emperor Yu ordered Yu, but Dayu then passed away and did not enter the family. He was able to control floods with the people of the world. It was established in the thirteenth year. After the nine rivers were separated, the nine lakes were buried, and the summers were peaceful, and the achievements were given to the three generations."

Where did the earliest royal power come from? To organize the rivers! If a regime cannot even do this, and still find various reasons to say "let the people suffer for a year", then it is better to destroy as soon as possible.

"Now the king's way is Lingchi, Han, Xin cannot control the river, and poison has been flowing for decades. Since I am the true emperor, I will do my best!"

"Wang Mang is retro, only three generations of names are renovated, and another name is changed."

"What I want to restore is Yu. Yu has done a real deed to benefit the people!"

The fifth reunion scandalized everyone, from Dou Rong, Geng Chun to Feng Qin, Pi Tong, and smiled:

"Yu, Yu had twenty-one ministers, Gao Yao, Qi, Hou Ji, Bo Yi, Kui, Long, Yi, Yi, Peng Zu, helped Yu, Yu chased out four evil spirits and controlled floods, so he left his name in the Book of Documents."

"I just don't know who is today's Gao Yao and Peng Zu?"

...

A wave of chicken blood finally slightly awakened the inner ideals of these Confucian ministers and sent them, especially several county magistrates in Hebei, to actively assist.

The fifth reunion only felt really tired. He had to use one set of rhetoric to the city gate, and incite the ministers to say another.

At present, he has just slightly unified his thoughts and implemented them in detail. The fifth reunion is planned to be handed over to Du Shi, the Duwei of Shuiheng who has been dealing with "shui" for many years.

Du Shi entered the pass for several years. With the full support of the Fifth Reunion, hydraulic equipment had bloomed everywhere in Guanzhong and Hanoi. The iron workshops that produce armored soldiers used water drainage, and water mills were basically built in places with abundant river water to liberate the rice pounding labor force and repair the water conservancy projects that were disrepaired in Guanzhong.

The next step in the technology tree is to work hard towards hydraulic spinning and hydraulic hammering.

At present, Du Shi’s main task is to be transferred to the river.

"Your Majesty, we have no Xilang, only human life and human heart."

"Therefore, this battle is not something that can be won in one battle, nor is it a three or five-year effort, but it requires ten years or even decades of preparation!"

The downstream is just to treat symptoms and emergency relief, and soil erosion in the middle and upper reaches is the foundation, but it will take more than a hundred years to plan. Don’t expect an administrative order to solve everything. The fifth reunion is set up in the fifth capital, which is also preparing to share the population of Jingzhao.

But if the disaster of the Yellow River can be stopped for hundreds or even thousands of years, it will be worth it.

The Fifth Lun is more comfortable to deal with technocrats like Du Shi. But let’s first explain the difficulties. River control is a huge project. The first thing to do at present is to prepare the technical theory of yellowing.

Du Shi reported: "During the reign of the water control period, there were controversies in Wang Mang's water workers, and they all offered their own suggestions. I was ordered by Your Majesty to screen them. There were five types of comments, flood stagnation, hydraulic sand brushing, diversion, and embankment building."

The fifth reunion is the theory of hydraulic sand brushing. I heard that this was offered by Zhang Rong, a water worker at Wang Mang. Based on actual measurements, the Yellow River "six dou of mud" advocates using water to rinse the riverbed so that the riverbed will not rise too fast and cause flooding. This person survived the chaos in the Xinmo period and has now been re-employed as the Shuiheng Duwei.

But it is said that this person was skeptical about the Fifth Emperor's plan to govern the river. After all, Wang Mang said it nicely back then, but in fact he did nothing.

At present, we must first use the "flood detention theory" to limit the Yellow River to a range. Don't run around Kanto to minimize its harm. Of course, the fifth relationship must also find enough workers to control the water in the future...

“There will be human hands.”

Just like planning to incorporate Chengtouzilu, the fifth reunion has the idea of ​​"slaying two birds with one stone". We must do these two things together to control water and bandits.

The fifth reunion stood on the edge of the river that was calm after showing its might and calmed down. All of this had a prerequisite.

"The defeated red eyebrows are the good red eyebrows!"
