Destiny Only Han

Chapter 131 Shu County, the biography can be decided!

Inside the big tent, amidst the "sounds of apes", Xiao He looked at Liu Ying with a look of relief on his face.

He is very satisfied with Liu Ying's statement that "if he is not in his position, he will not seek his own government".

Li Shang was a general in the army, unlike those few people who didn't even have a name, any disposal of him had to be done by himself or Liu Bang.

As for Liu Ying, not to mention that he has not been canonized as the crown prince, even if he has already been canonized, he is also not qualified.

Xiao He nodded lightly: "That's right, compared to a few months ago, I'm much more stable, knowing what to say and what not to say."

This old man is really boring... Liu Ying's face is full of innocence: "This is all taught by the teacher!"

Xiao He smiled and waved his hands: "Go and play."

Upon hearing this, Liu Ying walked out of the tent with a smile on her face.

He knew in his heart that if he wanted to please an elder like Xiao He, he didn't need you to pay anything. After all, they didn't lack anything. The important thing was to let them see how they exert influence on you, yes How to support and change a young person.

So today, he can be regarded as lost in the east and reaped in the mulberry.

Well, failed to sell tea.

In fact, when you think about it, failure is not surprising.

After all, there is one person in this room, and they are all drunks!

Han Xin is an exception.

Although he also participated in the banquet today, he wanted to integrate into the circle of high-level officials in the Han Kingdom.

But obviously, he miscalculated a little.

That is, there is no size on the wine table, or in other words, Zhou Bo, Cao Shen and others were dissatisfied with him, the general who came by air, and deliberately dragged him to fight for wine.

At this moment, Han Xin was throwing up in the dark with his arms around the toilet!
孽 孽!
Liu Ying shook her head, walked out of the big tent with her hands behind her back, called a guard outside the tent, and told him to watch over Han Xin so that no accidents would happen to him.

After all, others don't know Han Xin, a little-known person, but he knows it very well.

Bingxian, the ten philosophers of the martial arts temple, and millions of soldiers in the company, must win battles and capture attacks!

Of course, later that Zhao XX who bullied orphans and widows almost kicked Han Xin out of the Wu Temple. It should be because Han Xin abandoned Chu Benhan and asked him to be the King of Qi, which stabbed him in the back...

Liu Ying stood outside the tent, looking to the south.

Berkshire has been brought down again, and the cinnabar mine and salt factory in Bashi, Fuling County mentioned in Li Shang's documents have also been taken over from private hands and owned by Han Guo.

Although Liu Ying felt a little regretful that he didn't get a chance to embezzle state-owned assets, there were plenty of opportunities to make money, and this time was not bad.

For example, the Zigong Well Salt he has been thinking about is much more valuable than the salt factory in Bashi's hands!
I don't know what's going on in Shu County now... Liu Ying felt a little lost. He had already prepared the first start-up capital for digging the salt well, and now he was waiting for the settlement of Shu County before going to get it. Heavenly wealth.

This is also the information he got from Li Shang's memorial.

Compared with Shu County, the exchanges between Berkshire and Central Plains are more frequent.

Under such circumstances, there are still hundreds of thousands, or even millions of Ba people who are not in the government's household registration register hidden in the mountains of Berkshire.

What about Shu County?

Apart from the most core Chengdu Plain, how many barbarians who refuse to accept the kingship should live in the high mountains there?
This is the potential labor force!
When the time is right, it's time for these people to get out of the mountains and build a kingly paradise with the Han army!
"I hope Lin Zhi won't be too ruthless and can kill less people..."

Liu Ying looked back at the bloody setting sun and prayed silently in her heart.

…………

Shu County, Pi County.

This place, known all over the world for its bean paste in later generations, is now red.

This is not the red of pepper, but the red of blood.

Lin Zhi stood on the hills in the northwest direction, looking at the distant plain full of floating corpses, drops of blood dripped from the long sword in his hand.

Great victory in this battle.

The blood dripping from the long sword in his hand was not his, but that of the reckless governor of Shu County.

At this moment, the distorted and ferocious head of the Sheriff of Shu County was hanging on his waist, and blood was dripping from the severed neck.

Since the division of troops in Langzhong, Lin Zhi has turned back into that murderous butcher who doesn't care about his own life or the lives of others.

Wherever he led the army, those who refused to leave the city to surrender after the first drum beat were slaughtered after the city was broken, and the treasury rewarded those who came first.

As a result, many officials such as county magistrates, county magistrates, and village stingers fled.

The county soldiers who surrendered in Kaesong were immediately incorporated into the army by him, and swept all the way to Chengdu County.

Finally, the Sheriff of Shu County, who secretly took refuge in Zhang Han, had to organize an army in Pi County to fight Lin Zhi.

It's just that one side is timid and rushes to fight, while the other side's morale is like a rainbow, full of murderous intent.

As a result, naturally needless to say.

As for why the decisive battle is here, instead of defending the city for self-defense.

All this will start from the period of King Qin Huiwen.

After Qin destroyed Shu, the system of enfeoffment and prefectures and counties coexisted, and the king of Shu surrendered, and Qin sent Chen Zhuang as the Prime Minister of Shu to control the land of Shu.

At this time, the King of Shu lived in Chengdu County, while the prefecture of Shu County was in Pi County.

For the purpose of convenient control, the city wall in Chengdu County was demolished, and the city wall in Pi County began to be built.

It was only later that the state of Qin betrayed its promise and lowered the title of king of Shu again and again, and finally moved to Guanzhong, Chengdu County, which became the county seat of Shu County again.

It is also because of this that the city wall of Pi County is unfinished.

As for the city wall of Chengdu County, although it has been built one after another, it has not yet been closed.

In other words, there is a big gap in the city wall without the enemy attacking it!

Well, this is the romance of the Qin people, who use people as the city wall, and when the soldiers are approaching the city, they directly open it...

As the sun set, Lin Zhi shook the long sword in his hand, shaking off the blood on it, and then put the sword back into its sheath.

In the distance, the city gates of Pixian County were wide open, and the remaining defenders consciously opened the city gates, and cut off the big Qin flag with black characters on a white background on the top of the city, only waiting for the galloping riders to replace them with blood-red banners. The battle flag of the Han army.

In Shu County, the rumor can be determined!

…………

Hanzhong County, Chenggu County, Dahan Coal and Iron Trading Company.

Liu Ying got off the carriage, and under the escort of Ji Xin, who was doing nothing, inspected the situation here.

Compared with the wild and desolate place when he came last time, this place has changed a lot now.

Not only are there thousands more simple tents, but beside the river in the distance, deep canals are being dug intensively.

This canal will provide a steady stream of power for the waterwheels erected on it.

Well, what is needed for grinding and hammering, or even erecting water drains to push the bellows for smelting metals, is stable power.

If the water truck is directly placed on a natural river, it will inevitably be affected by the wet season or the dry season.

When the upstream rainfall is small, the waterwheel may not be able to touch the river surface, and when there is heavy rain upstream, if the waterwheel is not put away in time, it is likely to be directly washed away by the flood.

Therefore, although it is laborious to dig ditches, it is still necessary.

Looking at the tents that had sprung up like mushrooms in the distance, Liu Ying was once again shocked by Zhang Liang's plan.

Before Zhang Liang left, he suggested to Liu Bang to burn down the plank road, in order to express to Xiang Yu that he had no intention of returning to Guanzhong.

But that's only the first layer.

Presumably, Zhang Liang had already expected that many people who followed Liu Bang into Hanzhong might just follow him for a while, and then they would leave with Liu Bang when they saw the desolation of Hanzhong County.

Therefore, after burning the plank road, it is tantamount to cutting off their escape route.

After all, there are only a few roads in and out of Hanzhong.

Either take the very difficult Meridian Road, or the plank road.

As for the old road on the west side, after the plank road was built, that place has been gradually abandoned. It is okay for a large group of people to pass by, but if a group of less than 50 people passes there, we must prepare for the ending of one or two people missing after camping every night.

With a small population, there must be many animals, and there must be countless beasts.

Is it possible that giant pandas voluntarily eat bamboo?
It's not introverted, but those colleagues who eat meat...

Therefore, many people are in a state of swinging between going and not going after weighing.

Therefore, when Liu Ying started to recruit workers, she recruited more than 2000 households at a price almost below the market price!
Well, it is a household, not a person.

After all, to establish an industrial zone, not only men are needed as strong laborers, but also women are needed to complete many trivial tasks.

Women in this period can truly hold up half the sky!

Ji Xin looked around, pointing to the smoky place in the distance: "Is this what you call coking?"

Liu Ying nodded: "Yes, today is the day when the second furnace of coke is finished."

After he finished speaking, he took Ji Xin and walked there.

The first thing that caught his attention was the refractory bricks that had been fired last time, but because the canal hadn't been repaired and the matching high-temperature-resistant small blast furnace hadn't been built yet, there was a natural surplus of bricks fired with exhaust gas.

But Liu Ying looked at the coke refining place in the distance, and felt that the exhaust gas should not be wasted like this. He planned to adjust the types of bricks fired, and fired ordinary bricks for civilian use.

Liu Ying recruited an engineer who looked at him from a distance: "Don't burn the third furnace of coke, let's build a brick kiln first, connect the fire channel to the coking pit, introduce high-temperature waste gas into the brick kiln, and burn ordinary bricks. Tiles."

As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, all countries had already mastered the technology of firing bricks and tiles, so Liu Ying was not worried that the engineers here did not know how to build brick kilns.

The engineer asked, "I don't know what the master wants those bricks for?"

Liu Ying pointed to the canal dug in the distance and said: "Naturally, we plan to lay the canal with bricks to prevent the place where the canal connects to the river channel from being washed away by the current and sinking, making it impossible to divert water."

Well, he didn't say anything about using bricks to build houses for craftsmen.

During this period, bricks and yellow mud were used to build houses not for the living, but for the tombs of the dead.

After saying it, he was worried that the craftsmen around him would spit on his face...
