I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 371 Give a chance to be famous in history?
"The minister and the people of the tribe have been exploring for days, and they know that although the riverbed here is wide, the extreme depth is only eight meters, and the extreme depth is about four meters."

"If the method of filling stones by the eldest son is used, it is very easy to erect bridge piers, even to build stone bridges. It is really an excellent place to build bridges."

The previous sentence was said by Dou Shuo.

The last sentence is Gongshuban's supplement.

Zhiyao was of course happy to hear such news, even if she trusted Dou Shi and Gongshu Shi very much, it was necessary to go to the field to watch the prospecting process.

Gongshu and Dou felt that the perfect place to build the bridge was "Jijin", but the place has no official name yet.

It is about a hundred miles away from "Puyang", but less than thirty miles away from "Mo".

Zhiyao did not come during the winter ice and snow season, or if you stand on the top of a distant mountain and look at "Jijin", you can see that the surrounding environment looks like a galloping white horse.

Come to think of it, "Jijin" was renamed "Baimajin" in the future because the winter scenery looks like a white horse?

When Dou's surveying the river bed, he transferred a boat, and there were hundreds of boats.

Of course, the ship was transferred from "Xiyang", and the sailors were also seconded there. Zhiyao took one of them to watch Dou Shuo actually detect the water depth. After a busy day, he confirmed that the previous exploration data was correct.

"Ban thought that he could build a prison, fill it with sand and gravel, transport it to the river by boat, and hang it into the water..." Gongshu Ban was opened to a new world by Zhiyao anyway.

The so-called prison is actually a kind of caisson.To put it bluntly, it is to use wood to build a fixed frame, and then fill it with sand and gravel.

After hearing what Gongshuban said, Zhiyao remembered that there was another cofferdam method.

Later, Gongshuban talked more and more, which made Zhiyao froze for a while.

Zhiyao understood that what Gongshuban said was a combination of the caisson method, the cofferdam method and the piling method. First, the cofferdam was blocked to prevent the water from flooding in, and then boulders were built around it, and then the center was filled in. Enough soil, and it needs to be tamped again and again, and then the giant logs are transported and piled to become bridge piers.

After listening to Zhiyao, she couldn't help admiring. Sure enough, as long as they open up a way of thinking for the ancients, they can quickly draw inferences from one instance, and even come up with a plan that is so reliable that it can no longer be reliable.

"How much labor is required?" Zhiyao asked.

Gongshu Pan immediately replied: "Five thousand is enough for stone-cutting, transshipment, logging, and bridge repair."

For projects such as bridge repairs, the more people the better, the more emphasis is placed on skilled workers.

Fortunately, Zhishi has done a large-scale water conservancy project, and there is no shortage of relevant technical personnel. Even if there are not as many as 2000 people, it will be faster to learn anything based on literacy, and it is easier to learn while doing.

Then, the overall labor force for bridge repairs does not need to be too much, which means that the second five-year plan to be carried out east of "Handan" will not be delayed.

The only thing Zhiyao needs to pay attention to is that "Jijin" is located on the edge of Wei's fiefdom, and it is only about a hundred miles away from Song State.

As for things like being on the edge of "Mo".The state of Wei has become a pocket-sized vassal state ahead of time, what can they do?

"Wei set up a card to collect tolls in 'Hulao'. When the bridge here is completed, I will also set up a card to collect tolls. Isn't it too much?" Zhiyao confirmed the feasibility of building the bridge and couldn't help but start thinking about it.

Historically, there is no relevant documented record as to who built the bridge at "Jijin", but it can be determined that the bridge and the ferry are operated together.

Zhiyao returned to the shore and said: "If it is convenient to build a bridge here, Mrs. Dou needs to investigate carefully, and the more bridges on both sides of the river, the better."

One bridge needs to be repaired, so it is better to take advantage of the opportunity to add a few more, lest only one bridge will slow down the mobilization of troops in the future.

The people present were greatly shocked.

A similar project was carried out by the Zhou royal family once, and it turned out that it lasted for more than 200 years. At the beginning, everyone was charged, but later they were forced to allow people to pass for free.

Now, Zhiyao not only wants to build a bridge, but the more she opens her mouth, the better. What about making trouble?

just right?It seems to be human nature for people to say something bragging in agitated mood.

Gongshuban and Zhishuo looked at each other, and nodded tacitly.

There is absolutely no such thing as more is better. Judging from the actual situation of exploration, building three bridges is a more feasible and practical solution.

Seeing Zhiyao's generosity, they wondered if they could abandon the hybrid bridge of stone and wood and build a stone bridge instead.

When Dou Shuo heard Gongshuban's words, he quickly said, "Build a building first, and then ask the eldest son for instructions."

How long can a bridge that uses a lot of wood last?In fact, it still depends on the usual maintenance.

It is certain that the service life of stone bridges is definitely higher than that of hybrid bridges, but it is a huge project to find and transport stone materials.

Do you know where is the longest stone bridge in history?It is located in Shuitou Town, Nan'an City, Fujian Province. It was built in the eighth year of Song Shaoxing (1138).It is called Wuli Bridge, also known as Anping Bridge.Even in modern times, it is still intact, that is, it has witnessed the rotation of the four seasons for more than 2000 years. (It's in the hometown of the author, I have been there hundreds of times, and the sea breeze is always cold)
Gongshu Pan said hopefully: "There are huge boulders everywhere in the northeast of 'Mo', and my family also has a huge boat. There is no shortage of bridge-building needs, and water transportation is also worry-free."

The place full of boulders is called Hebi in modern times, but it is currently a desolate place.

If the boulder was transported by land, Gongshuban would never dare to say that.

Doesn't this mean that Zhishi has enough ships to transport stones?A large number of ships and sailors usually have nothing important to do, so it would be too wasteful not to use them.

Dou Shuo knew what Gongshu Ban was thinking, and it was nothing more than quitting, if it was true, he would go to make his name in history.

To be honest, if a stone bridge is really built in Dahe, it will really be famous in history, and Zhiyao Bridge will be in use for a day, and people who come and go will remember the bridge builder.

Of course the greatest honor belongs to Zhishi, but Gongshuban and Dou Shuo, who are the actual operators, will definitely share the honor, and the proportion will be very high.

"When will the construction start and when will it be completed?" Zhiyao asked.

I won’t be able to answer this for a while, it depends on the speed of material collection, and then it depends on the technical difficulty after the real bridge is built.

For projects involving technology, unless there is sufficient experience, any hypothetical construction period is a hooligan.

Since Zhiyao came here, she simply took people to visit the old place of Nanyan.

The so-called Nanyan was wiped out when he led an army in a certain place in Zhiyao, and the land was divided up by Wei, Song and Zheng.

Later, the Wei family snatched Zheng Guo's share, but the Song State clung to the "worm prison", so that the Song State had a prominent part in the local area that the Wei family found very annoying.

Now that the Zhi family has annexed the state of Wei, Dacong actually has a border with the state of Song.

I especially remember that when the Zhi family was managing the Wei country, Song Guo felt very nervous, fearing that the Zhi family would restore the Cao country.

At that time, the State of Song did not gather a large number of troops and put on a ready-to-stand posture. Instead, it gathered an army of [-] to [-] troops to fight Zheng Jun in "Sha Sui".

Zheng Guo was actually frightened by Song Guo. Later, he realized that Song Guo was not trying to fight Zheng Guo, but was simply frightened by the Zhi family's strategy to protect the country. He did not dare to provoke the Zhi family. An action to brighten the muscles was intended to show Zhishi: Zhishi, don't come here!We also have [-] to [-] soldiers, and if we don't win, will you lose your teeth?

Not to mention, the fighting power of Song State's army is really not weak, otherwise it would not be possible to support Chu State alone for decades, and it was not until Jin State went south that Song State began to pretend to be a little white rabbit.

When Zhiyao wandered around and came to a place called "Changqiu", Zishen and Wei Ju from the Song Kingdom unexpectedly came over.

"Why did Yao come here?" Wei Ju was originally in 'Huangchi', when he heard that Zhiyao had arrived in 'Changqiu', he hurried over.

Zhiyao said: "My family wants to build a bridge in Dahe. After the work, I remembered the scenery of Nanyan, so I came here to travel."

Speaking of which, it has been three or four months since Wei Ju went south, and the alliance between the Wei family, Chu State, and Song State has also been completed.

After completing the alliance, the state of Chu returned home.

The Wei family also came here with the intention of not wasting the amount of payment for the soldiers who went to the expedition, and joined forces with the Song army to invade the eastern part of Zheng State.

Zheng Guo also completed the alliance with Wu State, but Wu Jun also returned to China after the alliance.

No way!

What Chu Jun was afraid of was that if he went back late, Wu Jun would steal the house.

In the same way, Wu Guo was also worried that the Chu army would cause trouble after returning, and he was definitely unwilling to stay with Zheng Guo for a long time.

After doing this, Wu Guo just formed an alliance with Zheng Guo, and immediately turned around and let Zheng Guo face Jin and Song alone, making it look like Wu Guo sold Zheng Guo.

From the actual situation, Wu Guo seems to have sold Zheng Guo, and whether the Chu Congress will fulfill the covenant with Wei and Song is also a matter of opinion.

Wei Ju caught the key words and asked, "Building bridges? Where are you going to build bridges?"

Zhiyao mentioned the location where the bridge will be built.

It took Wei Ju a bit of brainpower to figure out where the place Zhiyao mentioned was, and he was full of interest all of a sudden, and said, "If things come to fruition, 'Luoyi' is not the only one who owns the Bridge of the Great River."

Zishen, who was a pure listener, had a sudden thought, "If we build a bridge over there, won't we be able to enter our country within three days?"

This is because Song Guo didn't know that Zhishi intended to shift his focus to "Puyang", otherwise Zishen would be even more worried after hearing this.

Zhiyao changed the subject and asked, "Why don't you see people from Chu?"

Mentioning this, Wei Ju became a little annoyed, more helpless, and said: "Chu Lingyin died of illness, and the Bai Guild allies will return to the country."

Zixi is dead?

This is not good news for Jin, but it is mixed for Wei.

Zishen felt that he could not completely lose his sense of existence, so he said, "Shen Wen, son Shen, died of illness and left a last message, begging Bai Gong to remember the foundation of his ancestors."

Therefore, Zixi is the name, the name is Shen, and the birth is the son.This is very Chu State, where the Gong clan is the most powerful, and high-ranking officials are basically also the Gong clan.

just right?Chu State is basically ruled by one family, but there are no less civil strife than other countries. I really don't see how united they can be if they come from the same line.

Similar situations have repeatedly happened to the countries of the Central Plains, but they have repeatedly ridiculed and criticized Jin's authority being usurped by non-public clans.

Zhiyao understood what Zishen wanted to express, and said with a speechless face: "How, what's the use of the alliance?"

Of course, Zixi told Bai Gong not to just think about revenge, but to take the actual needs of Chu State as the starting point to decide the national policy.

However, is Bai Gong who can listen to persuasion still Bai Gong?
Therefore, Zhiyao felt that Wei Ju didn't need to worry, it was Chu Junzhang who should be worried!
