Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 457
The civil servants of the Manchu Dynasty panicked.

This Zhu Yuan entered Jinling like a god, so are there any other heavenly soldiers from the Central Plains descending?

Li Hongji's eyes were full of anger, and he shouted: "Hey Yan, summon the inner hall to go out with Gu. I don't believe it. People in the Central Plains have wings, can they fly across the Yangtze River?"

Compared with Li Jing and Li Yu, Li Hongji is indeed more courageous.

With a shout, he didn't even hang up his armor, he directly pulled out the decorative sword beside him, and strode out of the palace.

Many officials in the imperial city were stunned, and they stepped forward to block Li Hongji, shouting: "No, His Royal Highness, the body of a thousand gold, must not be in danger."

Are they really thinking about Li Hongji, or are they afraid that Li Hongji will transfer the imperial palace guards to the front line, resulting in a decline in the defense of the imperial city?

At this time, Han Xizai walked quickly from outside the palace and said, "Your Highness does not need to be involved in any danger. The situation in the city is under control for the time being. As the Prince of the Supervisory Kingdom, His Highness should sit in the center and go to the front line blindly. It is really a reckless act."

Li Hongji looked at Han Xizai with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Since Li Hongji supervised the country, he used Chen Qiao a lot. He once asked Chen Qiao, among the many ministers in the south of the Yangtze River, who could be of great use.

Chen Qiao was the first to talk about Han Xizai, and said bluntly: "Master Han is highly talented and knowledgeable, he is several times better than me. If we can get his help, great things will be accomplished."

Li Hongji visited Han Xizai many times, but Han Xizai ignored him.

Finally just give up.

Unexpectedly, Han Xizai would come out to speak out at this juncture, he was unavoidably surprised and came back to his senses.

Li Hongji bowed to Han Xizai and said, "Han Shilang said that Gu Menglang is gone. I hope you can tell me what is going on in Jinling now."

Han Xizai said: "Zhu Yuan doesn't have many soldiers. Jinling has an inner city, an outer city, and the imperial city. He was lucky enough to enter the city, and he can take down the entire Jinling in one fell swoop? I heard the sound of the police and went to the tower of the inner city. The guards Ma Chengxin and Ma Chengjun have already closed the gates of the inner city, and the situation has not continued to deteriorate. Chen Shilang sits on the tower of the inner city and waits and sees the situation, and I will report first."

Li Hongji felt relieved when he heard that Chen Qiao was sitting in the inner city.

Thinking of the coming chaos, all civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty hid in the imperial city to flee for their lives. Only Han Xizai and Chen Qiao went retrograde to investigate the situation, glared at the surroundings, and said with hatred: "If everyone is like Chen and Han, how can they be alone?" To be in such a situation."

The surrounding civil and military ministers were ashamed and bowed their heads one after another.

The corner of Han Xizai's mouth twitched, and a mouthful of old blood almost spewed out.

Han Xizai was originally a hero in Beihai. His ancestors belonged to Han Yu's lineage. His great-grandfather Han Jun served as Taichangqing; , It can be described as a family of officials and officials.

He himself is also very good, he studied hard, became a Jinshi at 22, and became the number one scholar in the later Tang Dynasty.

When Han Xi entered Jiangnan, he planned to show off his ambitions, but he was aloof and informal, so he could not be reused.

It wasn't until Li Jing came to the throne that Han Xizai had a place to use his skills.

It's just that he is young and energetic, and he will be useful this time, but he knows how to serve the country wholeheartedly, and he doesn't know how to protect himself at all.Regarding major events in the DPRK and China, they either refuted the impoliteness, or pointed out the shortcomings of the criticism, and Zhang Shu continued, which aroused great hatred and dissatisfaction among the officials in the DPRK and China, resulting in a bumpy official career.

Han Xizai knew that he couldn't be a human being, but he didn't want the prince in front of him to be even worse than him.

Under such circumstances, who would work for him if he exposed his ugliness in public?
Li Hongji didn't care about so many things, and asked: "What's next, please give me advice!"

Han Xizai said: "Mobilize the people in the inner city to defend the city for a long time."

Li Hongji's face was livid, and he said, "Didn't the servant say that Zhu Yuan didn't have many troops?"

Han Xizai said sadly: "His Royal Highness thought that Zhu Yuanqian came rushing on a fast horse and light cavalry, and there would be no infantry behind him to support him? Zhu Yuan was just one step ahead, and the infantry would follow immediately."

Li Hongji's face changed in vain, and he said, "Hurry up, let the governor come back quickly, as long as the navy comes back to help, everything will be fine."

Han Xizai sighed and said: "Chen Shilang has already sent someone, but...Your Highness, don't have too much hope."

Li Hongji shook his body and looked at Han Xizai in horror.

Han Xizai said helplessly: "If Zhu Yuan can surprise our Jinling City, others will surprise the water army camp. There are not a few infantry in Jiangbei. If Zhu Yuan can cross the river, others will naturally come."

Li Hongji murmured in a daze, "How on earth did he cross the river? Is it really possible to grow wings?"

Chengdu!

Dujiangyan.

Luo Youdu looked at the big weir built by Li Bing from a high place, his eyes were filled with amazement.

The Dujiangyan of later generations has been replaced by modern technology.

But Dujiangyan at this time, although it has been repaired in the past dynasties, has always retained the foundation of the past.

"This is the best proof that man can conquer nature."

When spring comes, there are Wu Zhaoyi and Ouyang Hui in Sichuan.

Luo Youdu had a lot of leisure time, and was bored in Chengdu, so he thought about going out to see the scenery of Shu.

It's hard to come to Bashu, but I haven't played anywhere except Chengdu, which is really unreasonable.

Then he told Li Hao what he meant.

Li Hao immediately listed many great scenes in Sichuan.

Jiange, Wuhou Temple, Emei Mountain, Qingcheng Mountain, Leshan Giant Buddha and so on.

Luo Youdu chose Dujiangyan, wanting to see the miracle left by the ancients with his own eyes.

A Dujiangyan has benefited tens of millions of people in Sichuan, and its merits are in the present, and the benefits will be in the future...

Looking at the artificially divided waterways, Luo Youdu suddenly thought of the Yangtze River, and asked Mrs. Huarui behind him with a smile, "The ancients could divide the Minjiang River into two, why don't you believe that manpower can build a pontoon bridge on the Yangtze River?"

Mrs. Huarui said in amazement: "The Yangtze River can build a pontoon bridge? I don't know..."

He looked at Li Hao, Lu Duoxun, and Han Wei who came together.

Li Hao said blankly: "I have heard that the Yellow River can build a pontoon bridge. I have never heard that the Yangtze River can build a pontoon bridge."

Lu Duoxun has been to Jiangnan and also Jingnan, he said dumbfounded: "The Yangtze River is wide and fast, how can it be possible to build a pontoon bridge?"

Han Wei also said: "I am ignorant and ignorant."

Luo Youdu looked at the faces of several people and knew that Jiangnan was stable.

Of course, floating bridges can be built on the Yangtze River, but no one has tried it.

The first person to try it was Fan Ruoshui, and the first person to eat the crab was Zhao Kuangyin.

In history, Fan Ruoshui, a native of Jiangnan, took a small boat on the Caishiji Yangtze River and made dozens of round-trip measurements. After accurately calculating the width and depth of the local Yangtze River, he proposed to the Song Dynasty to build a pontoon bridge to capture the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Then the first pontoon bridge appeared over the Yangtze River.

When the Southern Tang Dynasty learned that the Song Dynasty was building a pontoon bridge, they were still watching a play, saying that the Yangtze River was turbulent, how could it be possible to build a pontoon bridge?

Then the Song Dynasty built a pontoon bridge on the Yangtze River in less than three days.

No one thought that a bridge could be built on the Yangtze River.

This trick is actually very easy to guard against, but no one thinks about it.

After Luo Youdu became emperor, he sent someone to do what Fan Ruoshui did.

The width and depth of the Yangtze River, as well as the large bamboo strings used for bridge construction, were prepared well before the expedition.

Cao Bin is afraid that Jiangnan will not move forward during this period, just waiting for the floating bridge to be completed...
