History

Chapter 28

Xia Shu said: "Yu suppressed the flood for 13 years, but he didn't play at home."Vehicles are carried by land, boats are carried by water, mud is used to ride on pine trees, and mountains are bridges.In order to leave Kyushu, follow the mountains to dredge the rivers, and let the soil serve as tribute.Connect nine roads, build nine lakes, and pass nine mountains.However, the overflow of river scallops is especially harmful to China.Only for business.Therefore, the Dao River runs through Longmen from the accumulated stones, goes south to Huayin, goes down to Dizhu in the east, reaches Mengjin, Luorui, and reaches Dapi.So Yu thought that the river from which it came was high, the water was turbulent, and it was difficult to level the ground, so he was defeated in numbers, so he built two canals to divert the river.The highlands in the north are flooded by precipitation, and as far as the mainland is concerned, they spread into the Nine Rivers, which are also Nihe Rivers, and flow into the Bohai Sea.Jiuchuan is sparse, Jiuze is sprinkling, Zhuxia Ai'an, the merits of the three generations.

Since then, Xingyang has led southeast of the river into a gap to connect Song, Zheng, Chen, Cai, Cao, and Wei, and Ji, Ru, Huai, and Sihui.In Chu, the west is connected to the Han River and Yunmengzhiye, and the east is connected to the Jianghuai River.In Wu, it connects the three rivers and five lakes.In Qi, it is connected to Suji.In Shu, Shu guarded the ice and dug away the abyss to avoid the harm of foaming water, and passed through the two rivers in Chengdu.All of these canals can be used by boats, and if there is any surplus, they can be used for irrigation and invasion, and the people can benefit from it.As for the past, the water is often used to irrigate the canals of the fields, and there are trillions, but it is not enough.

Ximenbao diverted water from Zhang to irrigate Ye to enrich Wei's Hanoi.

But Han heard that Qin was fond of things, and wanted to give up, instead of ordering the eastward expedition, he ordered Zheng Guojian, a hydraulic engineer, to talk about Qin, and ordered Jingshui to be dug from the mouth of Dihu in the west of Zhongshan as a canal, and diverted to Luohuo for more than [-] li from the north east of the mountain. To irrigate the fields.When he felt it, Qin wanted to kill Zheng Guo.Zheng Guo said: "The first minister is the middle, but the success of the canal is also the benefit of Qin."The canal used the water to fill the pot and irrigated more than [-] hectares of land in Zelu, and harvested every mu for one bell.So Guanzhong was a fertile field, and there was no evil year. Qin became prosperous and strong, died and merged with the princes, and was named Zheng Guoqu by order.

In the 39th year of Hanxing, when Xiaowen Shihe cut the jujube, the golden embankment collapsed in the east, so Dongjun Daxing died and blocked it.

After more than forty years, today, in the Yuanguang of Ziyuan, the river is determined by Huzi, flows into Juye in the southeast, and connects Huai and Si.So the emperor sent Ji An and Zheng Shixing people to block it, and it was destroyed.At that time, Hou Tianfu of Wu'an was the prime minister, and he served in Fengyi.Qi lives in Hebei, and the river is cut off, while in the south, Qi has no water, and the town has a lot of income.Fen said above: "The decision of rivers and rivers is a matter of heaven. It is not easy to use human power as a force to fortify, and it may not necessarily respond to heaven."So the emperor has been doing nothing for a long time.

At that time, Zheng was a big farmer at that time, and said: "At a different time, the Kanto Cao millet came up from the Weizhong, and it was over in June. However, the Cao waterway was more than [-] miles away, and there were difficulties from time to time. Lead the Wei to pass through the canal to Chang'an, and go down to the South Mountain. The river has a diameter of more than three hundred miles, and it is easy to water, and it can be completed in three months; and there are more than [-] hectares of people's fields under the canal, and they can be irrigated: this will damage the water and save the soldiers, and benefit the land in the middle of the Guan, and get the valley." Son of Heaven Thinking so, Xu Bobiao, a hydraulic engineer from Qi, learned that tens of thousands of soldiers passed through the canal at the age of three.Tong, to Cao, great convenience.Later, there were a little more canals, and the people under the canals were able to irrigate their fields.

Afterwards, Hedong Shoufan said: "The water runs from the east to the west of the mountain, with more than one million stones in the year, and the limit of the mainstay. There are many losses, and it is also troublesome. Cross the canal to divert Fen to irrigate Pishi and Fenyin, and divert the river to irrigate Fen. Under Yin and Puban, you can get 200 hectares. The five thousand hectares were all abandoned by the river, and the people grazing their ears, which are now irrigated, can get more than [-] million stones of valley. It is different, but there is no water to the east of the main pillar." The emperor thought so, and sent tens of thousands of soldiers to make canal fields.A few years old, the river migrates, and the canal is unfavorable, so the farmer cannot pay for the planting.For a long time, the canal fields in the east of the river were abandoned and given to the people of Yue, which made the Shaofu think that it was a little bit of an entry.

Later, some people wrote a letter to understand the ramp and water affairs, and sent Zhang Tang, the imperial historian.Tang asked about it, because he said: "When you arrive in Shu, you follow the old road. The old road has many obstacles, and you go back far. Today, you pass through the inclined road and there are few obstacles. It is nearly four hundred miles; and the water of Li is connected to Mian, and the inclined water is connected to Wei. Both of them can be used for boating. The canal enters from Nanyang to Mian, and the water from He to Xie is more than a hundred miles away. It is turned by a car, and it goes down from Xiexia to Wei. In this way, the valleys in Hanzhong can be reached, and Shandong is infinite from Mian, which is convenient for the mainstay of the canal. And the arrows made of slanted wood, wood, and bamboo are designed to be made in Bashu." The emperor thought so, and worshiped Tang Ziyang as the guard of Hanzhong, and sent tens of thousands of people to build a slanted path for more than [-] li.The Tao and the fruit are close, but the water is turbulent and the stones cannot be watered.

Later, Zhuang Xiongzhen said: "The people of Linjin are willing to go through Luoyi to irrigate more than [-] hectares of brine to the east of the heavy spring. If you really get water, you can make ten stones per mu." From Luoshui to the foot of Shangyan Mountain.The bank was good at collapsing, but the well was dug, and the depth was more than forty feet.It is often a well, and the underground is connected with water.The water is so beautiful that it is absolutely Shangyan, and it is more than ten miles east to the mountains.The life of Jingqu began from then on.The keel is obtained through the canal, so it is called Longshou Canal.When he was more than ten years old, he was quite good at it, but he still hasn't been forgiven.

It was more than twenty years since the gourd was killed in the river, and the age cannot be counted, especially in the land of Liang and Chu.Since the Son of Heaven entrusted Zen to tour the mountains and rivers, next year, there will be drought, and Qian will grant little rain.The Son of Heaven entrusted Jiren and Guo Changfa to kill tens of thousands of people.So the Son of Heaven had used thousands of miles of sand, but he also faced the river himself, sinking the white horse and jade in the river, and ordered all the officials, officials and generals to pay their salaries to judge the river.At that time, Dongjun burned grass, so there was little firewood for firewood, and the bamboo in Xiaqi Garden was used as a bamboo.

Since the Son of Heaven faced the River Jue, mourning the failure of his achievements, he wrote a song: "Where is the gourd judging? How bright is the river! The land is restless, and the merits are endless. My mountain is flat. My mountain is flat." The wild overflows, the fish boils and the cypress winters. The road stretches and the river relaxes, and the dragon gallops and travels far away. Returning to the old Sichuan, the spirit is full, and the Zen is not enshrined, and you know how to be outside! Call me the uncle of the river, why is he not benevolent? , The flooding is endless, worrying about us? The mulberry floats, the Huaihe River and the Si are full, and the water is slow if it does not return for a long time." One said: "The river soup is turbulent, and the north crossing is difficult to dredge. Shen Meiyu , He Bo Xu Xi’s salary does not belong. The salary does not belong to the crime of defending people, burning the depression, why do you want to control the water! The bamboo is in the woods and the stones, and the house is filled with blessings.” So he died and built a palace. Above, it's called Xuanfang Palace.On the other hand, the Dao River went north to the second canal, and the old traces of Yu were restored, and the land of Liang and Chu was restored to Ning, without floods.

Since then, users have argued about water conservancy.Shuofang, Xihe, Hexi, and Jiuquan all divert rivers and valleys to irrigate fields; Guanzhong Auxiliary Canals and Lingzhi divert blocked water; Runan and Jiujiang divert Huai River; Donghai diverts Juding; , each with more than ten thousand hectares.It is indescribable to say that Tuo Xiaoqu is on the mountain pass.However, its author is in Xuanfang.

Tai Shigong said: Yu Nan climbed Lushan Mountain, watched Yu and dredged Jiujiang, then went to Taihuang, Kuaiji, went up to Gusu, looked at the five lakes; looked at Luorui, Dapi, Yinghe River in the east, and traveled Huai, Si, Ji, and Luoluo canals; Looking west to Minshan and Lidu in Shu; north from Longmen to Shuofang.Said: What a shame, water is a matter of profit and harm!Yu Cong filled the Xuanfang with his salary, wrote poems about gourds in sorrow, and wrote Hequ books.
