Destiny Only Han

Chapter 672 Liu Ying: The prince splits the mountain...

On the ninth day of October in the 16th year of the Han Dynasty, it was sunny.

The gunpowder smoke of the past few days has dissipated, and the strong bloody atmosphere has also dissipated under the gentle breeze of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. Only the weeds growing on the purple-black soil are desperately absorbing nutrients, quietly waiting for the arrival of spring.

And on the north bank of Dianchi Lake, more than 1000 soldiers of the Han army who conquered Dian Kingdom also stood in a row with big bags and small bags on their backs, smiling and beaming.

The reason is simple, they are going home.

The second wave of Shu immigrants arrived three days ago. Just near the lakeside plain around Dianchi Lake, there are four more counties in one breath, with a total of more than 7000 households!
Today's Han Dynasty is still pursuing the state system of the classical era, and all the people are soldiers.

Therefore, more than 2 households are equivalent to having more than 2 soldiers in the local area!

Of course, it is impossible for these 2 people to move across regions.

But maintaining law and order, patrolling to arrest robbers, and suppressing rebellion are still not a problem at all.

After all, adult men have to serve a shift, and spend two months a year in the local barracks. They may not be able to beat those good families who have a lot of farmland and practice martial arts daily, but they also need to train some spears. Hard crossbows, command and prohibition battle skills.

All the people are soldiers, and the Han country can't help bowing crossbows. The more residents there are in the wild, the fewer strongmen will cut the trails, and the pressure on local law and order will be less, so there is no need to maintain a full number of county soldiers at all times.

Those who came with the immigrants from Shu not only had their homemade bows and crossbows, but also countless iron armors, short knives, and shields...

Well, there is another reason.

Immigrants with plenty of martial arts, coupled with weapons and armor enough to arm themselves to the teeth, it is no problem to suppress prisoners of war slaves who are about the same number as themselves!

save money……

Some sections of the Hongshui River have a large drop and the current is turbulent. In the past, trackers were needed to pull the fibers when going upstream, but now the goods and business travelers are transported by steam barges, and they can also go upstream without the trackers. Faster, more humane and less expensive than pulling fiber.

Liu Ying waited until the rain of earth and rocks dissipated, slowly straightened up, and was as dumbfounded as everyone around her, staring blankly at the abrupt gap in the distant mountains.

Before the cement road is repaired on land, water transport needs to bear more than [-]% of the transshipment pressure.

Therefore, those Guanzhong people who look at the bathtub are dizzy, and the per capita landlubber went into the water to fish and practice swimming, just to wait until the end of the service period, and go to Panyu by boat instead of horse-drawn carriage...

Now this batch of soldiers boarding the ship are mainly soldiers from Guanzhong. They need to go down the river first, go to Panyu County for a short rest, and then take a job as a bodyguard and return to Guanzhong with the caravan.

After a while, Liu Ying jumped down from the rock, patted the dirt on her body, looked at Li Jie who came to see him off, and put on a gentle smile:

But once it gets dirty, it is very troublesome to wash. You need to remove the gold thread first, and then embroider it again after washing.

Of course, little loli also has a share...

So Liu Ying thought of a way, that is, to blow up a small hill beside the river, and then build an artificial canal parallel to the main river, so as to bypass the most dangerous part of the river.

Well, the soldiers who went home chose to carry the steam barge, also in order to earn more money for the stevedores...

Zhang Buyi spat out the gravel in his mouth and patted the sand on his body vigorously.

To put it in a more complicated way, this is a narcissist who needs to be extraordinary all the time...

When it was almost noon, the soldiers of the Han army who were ready to stop began to line up to board the ship.

The important thing is that it is now the dry season in the Southwest. If it comes to the rainy season, not only will the water flow become more turbulent, but the road will also become more difficult. Even if a concrete road is built between the two transfer points, it will be necessary to climb mountains and ridges. It is slippery and also difficult to transport.

As for the gems inlaid on the throne, they were basically sent back to Chang'an City together with Liu Ying's family letter, and dedicated to Lu Zhi as a New Year and birthday gift...

So, sorry...

After all, going down the river, you can travel day and night by boat, and reach your destination in a shorter time than land.

Therefore, Zhang Buyi realized that Liu Ying didn't care too much about what he could get. What Liu Ying was more intoxicated with was the pleasure of calling the wind and calling the rain, making everyone revolve around him, and changing the world because of him. !

After all, some people's service period happens to be during the busy farming period, so it needs to spend some money to 'overshift', or discuss with others, let others take the top, and then go after you finish your busy work...

The country does not seldom start large-scale wars, so naturally it does not need to recruit too many troops, so that the saved money can be used to pave roads, build bridges, and build water conservancy projects.

When the water flow is not too fast, you only need to be fully loaded, and pay attention to controlling the speed of the boat, but if the water flow is turbulent, it is easy for the boats to collide with each other due to the problem of speed...

Good luck and bad luck, the villagers can form formations to fight against robbers, and they can also form formations to fight each other when fighting for water and land, especially when they can't help bows and crossbows.

So there was the previous earthquake.

Liu Ying can't do it if he doesn't go, and as a pig who stole Liu Bang's cabbage, he is not welcome in front of Liu Bang every day, and he is second only to Liu Ying...

Of course, the number of pavilions is indispensable.

boom!
Amidst the violent explosion, Liu Ying hid behind a huge rock, hugged her head, and let the dirt and branches hit her head and face. She was ashamed and looked very embarrassed.

With the growth and improvement of population and productivity, rice paddies can be seen everywhere in the original wilderness, people in Lifang, chickens and dogs smelling each other, and smoke from cooking.

Regret, in short, I am very sorry!

To put it simply, it is an addiction to pretending...

In this way, materials can be transported more safely and efficiently.

Therefore, when the fleet passes through those dangerous shoals, it needs to dock in advance, unload the cargo, and then sail on land to the next place where the water flow is slow, reload the cargo, and set off again.

Because of this, the guards of Nanzheng received a document issued by Liu Ying, and after returning to their hometown, they handed over the document to the county to offset their own shift.

This guy is the most pretentious!

The important thing is that when Liu Ying got angry, someone helped to fight back. Zhang Liang couldn't beat Liu Bang, and as for little loli...

"Bah, bah, bah..."

Therefore, when there is prosperity, the people suffer; when death, the people suffer.

But the most important thing is that I am invincible in the world!

Naturally, the government will turn a blind eye to the matter of the people serving the shift, and even connive for a while, and take the opportunity to make some black money...

Well, the transportation capacity is limited, tens of thousands of soldiers did not evacuate on the same day, but returned to their hometown along different routes in batches.

Yunnan-Guizhou has many karst landforms, and the peaks are mainly limestone. Compared with the stone mountains in the Qinling Mountains that need to be boiled and watered to drill holes, the limestone is relatively crisp and porous. In addition, Liu Ying worried that the power of the explosives was not enough, so she buried more Explosives, and at the same time, auxiliary materials are added to the explosives...

This is not an attack, but a mountain.

Zhang Buyi figured it out all the way, and after a trip to Dian Kingdom, Liu Ying didn't actually have much wealth on the surface.

Well, I can't afford to lose this person...

................................................

Well, they have a two-month service period every year. This year's deduction has been played, and the deduction for next year can be postponed, or you can discuss it with the county lieutenant and transfer your quota for a fee...

For example, the golden throne of King Dian has been melted and cast into horseshoe gold, which is used to dredge rivers and build roads.

After all, it is rare to see such a scene where the mighty power of heaven and earth is used for oneself!
And they were fortunate enough to witness all of this with their own eyes, and feel the deafening magnificence of this landslide and earth-shattering up close!

After all, the Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system, whether it is for recruitment or service, soldiers need to prepare their own dry food and travel expenses. This is the case when they come, and it is the same when they go back...

It is no exaggeration to say that the cost of cleaning is basically worth doing it all over again.

The original mountain was 60 meters above the ground, but now it can almost be regarded as a pile of rocks...

After all, this is a policy to improve people's livelihood and benefit the people, and it also absorbs a lesson from the demise of the Qin Dynasty.

The latter is a policy that has only existed in the past two years.

The water here is turbulent, and the most important thing is that there are two high mountains on both sides of the river. Therefore, if a pier is built upstream and downstream, when transferring materials or ships by land for a short time, it will be too time-consuming to climb mountains and ridges.

But this is also good, with abundant martial arts, it is much better than everyone being obedient and obedient citizens!
And this is also the reason why the soldiers of the Southern Expedition can leave with confidence.

Therefore, the difficulty of shipping is to go downstream.

Now this dress is his favorite one. It is made of brocade and brocade with gold threads embroidered with clusters of auspicious clouds. Whether it is beautiful or not is another matter, mainly because it is expensive...

If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have left with Liu Ying. Wouldn't it be nice for him to return directly to Guanzhong by land?
After all, Liu Ying went to Panyu by water because Liu Bang's car had already set off from Guanzhong. When he received the news two days ago, the car had already arrived in Changsha and was heading for Panyu.

A steam barge is a 'water train' composed of more than a dozen small boats connected end to end. When going down the river, it is easy for the cargo ship at the end of the line to run to the front of the line, causing chaos.

Well, it's not jealousy... Zhang Buyi turned his head with a sour stomach, and forcibly ignored the cheers like a tsunami at the moment.

So he looked at Liu Ying who was standing on the rock with her hands behind her back and her skirt fluttering against the wind, and he became more and more angry.

"Okay, the most difficult point has been solved, the rest is to clean up the gravel, and then continue to blast until the prototype of a canal is blasted!"

"Well, when you ask Bo people to work, don't deduct their rations. As long as you don't break the law, don't always beat them..."

"After all, your family also has a manor in Lingnan, so there is no need to say anything about the efficiency of the officials and the mediocre farmers."

Li Jie nodded heavily, and just asked with a smile: "It is often said that if the name of the Tao is not correct, the words will not go well. Now that the army's squadron is returning to the court, under what name should this left servant stay here?"
