Intelligence is the most obvious aspect that distinguishes humans from other animals.
Just like some people just like to be brainless, although they have seen and heard it, there are still some people who are still unable to adapt to the new changes quickly.
For example, these changes brought about by General Zhengxi...
The New Year is approaching, and although the time has not yet arrived, many people have already begun to make preparations. Even ordinary people who have been poor for a year are still trying to collect some firewood and exchange some money to put up a three-foot-high new brick on the street.
cloth, or buying a liter of white flour and white rice, not to mention the children of the big families in Sichuan and Sichuan. Seeing that the war has been calmed down and they can return to their favorite time again, Ba Shi feels miserable...
…
As a result, the atmosphere inside and outside Chengdu gradually became filled with a festive atmosphere, which seemed to dilute many of the severe cold weather.
Just when Fei Qian was picking up Liu Bei from Qingyang Si, on Dongmen Street in Chengdu, the original snow had been swept aside early and piled under the brick wall. There were points upstairs and downstairs in a nearby Linxian Building.
There were several fire pots, thick curtains to protect from the wind, and the aroma of wine and meat made almost everyone who entered the door feel warm immediately, as if spring had arrived early.
Downstairs they sell tea and wine. Many men who have free time in the twelfth lunar month and are not too busy with money sit in the room, warming themselves by the fire, drinking bitter tea and sour wine, and chatting nonsense.
Of course, most of it still revolves around Fei Qian, the new general who conquered the West in Sichuan...
In the words of these people, General Zhengxi gradually became a god and a demon. Although most people have never experienced the battle in Qixian County, and even a lot of news does not know how many hands it has gone through, but
It still couldn't stop these people from using their imagination beyond their ordinary imagination, and described General Zhengxi and his men as being full of magical power. They could make clouds come with a wave of their hands, rain fall with their sleeves, and city gates collapse with a stamp of their feet...
"So, from now on, you don't have to go to the Dragon King to ask for rain?" an idle man muttered, seeming to have found a new idea, "General Zhengxi turns out to have such magical powers, he can make clouds make rain, no wonder he can
Let Guan Guan have good weather and increase production and income..."
"Yes, yes, if General Zhengxi also gives my family farmland... Well, I mean our Sichuan and Sichuan farmers also allocate some magical powers and so on, wouldn't it..."
"What are you thinking about? It's not your turn to benefit first, it's not the big players who are in front?"
"General Zhengxi has so many magical powers, these big households can't stand it, right? If a few leak out, that's enough for us..."
"That's true... But I haven't seen the magical power of General Zhengxi now, but I have seen the rules first... Hey, I said that Dakuan, have you finished the hard labor you were punished for? Bashi, no Bashi
?”
"Ba Shi is miserable!" Dakuan snorted, he couldn't lose face even if he lost.
"Hahaha……"
A happy atmosphere suddenly filled this corner.
"Dakuan, don't pee everywhere next time. Be careful that General Zhengxi won't punish you for sweeping the streets. I might as well cut off your penis... It will save trouble! Hahaha..."
"That's right, you're brave and brave. You can find a remote alley and urinate in front of those patrolmen from Zhengxi. Isn't this what you asked for?"
Although Bai Dakuan blushed, he still said stubbornly, "I just peed! Really? I just don't accept it! This General Zhengxi is in charge of the sky and the earth, and he still manages to poop and pee in the middle?"
I'm a human being, so I can't poop or pee? This is a punishment for me..."
"Dakuan, if you are not convinced, go and reason with General Zhengxi! Go out and turn left, then head north, no one will stop you!"
"Tch, I have a bad temper! I'm too lazy to care..."
"Hahaha……"
Under the guidance of the store clerk, Lai Min slowly climbed the stairs. Hearing the noisy chatter in the corner, he couldn't help but smile, and then went up to the second floor.
On the second floor, it is much more elegant and luxurious. Not only are there screens, but there are even hanging curtains. There is also an incense burner in the corner, and the curls of green smoke disperse, as if to isolate a piece of elegance.
"Brother Jingda, please come this way!" Wu Yi got the message early, turned out of the screen, and greeted.
"Ah, I'm late, brother Wu, please forgive me, forgive me..." Lai Min cupped his hands and said with a smile.
Wu Yi laughed loudly, stepped forward and took Lai Min's hand affectionately, and said indifferently: "Brother Jingda, why are you like this! You and I have known each other for many years, but we are mostly bothered by trivial things, have no leisure time, and rarely get together...
...I heard today that there is a new delicacy in Linxian Tower. It would be boring to drink it alone. Brother Jingda doesn't mind someone's intrusion and vulgarity. I am really lucky..."
Lai Min also smiled, and the two of them gave in for a while, then they pulled each other's sleeves and sat down together.
I won’t go into details about Wu Yi, but Lai Min, in fact, he is the same as Wu Yi, a type of person who has fallen into disgrace and never gets tired of seeing each other.
Lai Min's original ancestors were also pretty good. They had served as three princes, as generals on horseback, as marquises, and even married princesses of the Han family. But when it comes to Lai Min's generation...
Historically, because Lai Min was a new savage, he quickly hooked up with Liu Bei after entering Sichuan, and even became Liu Chan's family order, and then it skyrocketed until he swelled up and had sex with Brother Zhu, and then said
She said the wrong thing and got fucked. After Brother Zhu died, she started shaking again. Unexpectedly, she said the wrong thing again and was fucked again. Then she couldn't get up again this time. In addition, Lai Min turned 90 at the end of the year.
Seven, he can be regarded as a very old man.
Wu Yi and Lai Min are similar in some aspects. In addition, both of them are basically unemployed now, and they are both from Dongzhou. Naturally, they feel that it is warmer to hold each other in each other's arms, so it is also good for them to keep in touch with each other.
It's just something that happens naturally.
After the dishes were served, the two of them ate and drank for a while, and then gradually began to talk about the main topic.
There are also close guards on both sides of the screen. Unless someone is posted outside the window on the second floor or close to the floor, in the noisy environment of the restaurant, even if you want to eavesdrop, you may not be able to hear.
"Tomorrow's expedition to the west..." Lai Min came closer and whispered, "Convene everyone to discuss matters. Does Brother Wu know what he wants to do?" Lai Min currently has no official position, so he naturally cannot understand some internal affairs.
Wu Yi put down the wine baron and said softly: "The New Year is coming, most of them will be reviewing affairs and taking measures for the coming year..."
Lai Min pondered for a moment and then said: "Brother Wu, have you seen Liu Shijun lately?"
Wu Yi shook his head and said: "Xuande has been away from Zhengxi in recent days, so I can't see him."
Lai Min glanced at Wu Yi, then lowered his gaze, held the chopsticks, touched the chopstick pillow twice, and made a thin crisp sound, "So...Liu Shijun..."
Linxianlou is one of the largest restaurants in Chengdu. In addition, although Wu Yilaimin does not have an official position at the moment, he is not an ordinary citizen, so he is more particular about the tableware. For example, the chopsticks used are made of ivory and inlaid with silver.
, and then the chopstick pillow is also made of bronze, and there are even several lines carved on the chopstick pillow, symbolizing gluttony.
"Xuan De values friendship, so it's not like this..." Wu Yi took a look and knew what Lai Min meant, but this denial didn't seem to have much confidence, "It's not like this..."
"
Lai Min put down his chopsticks, smiled, and said nothing.
Wu Yi couldn't say anything for a while, and the two of them couldn't help but be silent for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed.
The noise from downstairs came up through the floor, and a few scattered words floated, such as "Zhengxi", "rules", and "money", entering the silence of Wu Yi and Lai Min.
scope.
"This... method of conquering the West..." Wu Yi broke the silence, "What do you think, Brother Jingda?"
Lai Min smiled, raised the wine baron and invited him, "I'd like to humble myself... this matter, haha, I'll let the powerful ministers discuss it..."
Wu Yi also picked up the wine cup, nodded and said with a smile: "That's right... As the saying goes, when winter goes and spring comes, you reap what you sow... You might as well wish the new method of conquering the west a great success..."
The two looked at each other and laughed, then drank from their glasses.
…………………………………………
War has developed to the stage of the Han Dynasty, and has broken away from the model of beating mammoth leg bones against each other in the Age of Integrity. If you want to achieve greater and more victories, the decisive factor is not only on the battlefield, but also on the battlefield.
Outside the battlefield.
With the passage of time and the development of society as a whole, decisive factors outside the battlefield will become more and more important. Suppression of equipment, technological updates, and things like this will widen the gap between the two sides, and then force the other party to invest more resources.
Consumption, and ultimately you may lose the entire battle because you can't afford it.
Therefore, Feiqian's current strength is not only in the army, but also in the economic foundation laid previously in Bingbei and Guanzhong. The combined effect of these soft and hard strengths is often greater than the ordinary sum, just like
It is because the road from Guanzhong to Hanzhong was originally rugged and difficult, and the Ziwu Valley was narrow and difficult. But now, after continuous excavation and rock blasting, the mountain road that was originally difficult for even people to climb has now become a trail that can be passed by a horse. If
As the excavation continues, transportation will become more and more convenient...
The same is true from Hanzhong to Sichuan and Shu.
The use of black powder on the battlefield is not infallible, but it is very effective when used to explode rocks. At least it is faster than the primitive water and fire methods, which reduces the difficulty and speeds up the progress of the entire project.
At the same time, due to the development of animal husbandry in Bingbei, more cattle and horses can be replaced to do some cumbersome tasks, such as transporting sand, earth and rocks. Therefore, the civilians under the Conquest of the West can engage in some more sophisticated projects without compromising their health.
Spending too much on mundane things that consume the most manpower...
Perhaps Fei Qian was lacking in many things and was not as good as those top-notch counselors and generals, but in terms of overall control and scheduling of resource utilization, he played a considerable role in the office operations of later generations.
Theory and experience, this point was unparalleled by Fei Qian throughout the Han Dynasty.
Just like in history, Liu Yan and Liu Zhang controlled Sichuan and Shu, that is, they only knew how to accumulate wealth like a miser, and then Liu Bei spent all that Liu Yan and Liu Zhang had accumulated. Many princes did not
It is not clear how resources should be used, nor how to maximize benefits.
Sichuan and Shu are resource-intensive areas, and if you want to be rich, you must first build roads. These roads are not only the original official roads, but also unexplored roads that connect new resource points.
Just like a flower somewhere...
In the Han Dynasty, Panzhihua did not have the name Panzhihua, but was called Dazuo.
Fei Qian returned to the government office and entered the hall. He saw the sand table that had just been built. He couldn't help but put his hands on the edge of the huge sand table and looked at the general position of the big table marked on the sand table.
Because there are many mountains in the Chuanyun area, many tribal forms have formed over a long period of time. As time goes by, some new tribes are born, and some tribes die. Just like the Dazuo, which was originally
It means that a group of Zeyi people lived in this place. They were once prosperous. It is said that at its peak, there were 1.3 million households and more than 6 million people. Then they were targeted by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. In the sixth year of Yuanding
When he started to conquer the southwestern part of the Han Dynasty, this seedling that had some hope of development was completely buried in the ground...
Up to now, the Zhe people have divided into Bailang, Panmu, Loubo, Qingyi, Sanxiang, and Yanniu tribes. Then some of them stayed in place, and some fled to join the Qiang people. They are no longer as strong as they were in the past.
It is precisely because of this that the relationship between the Zuo people and the Han people is not very good. In addition, neither Liu Yan nor Liu Zhang and his son are very capable. Therefore, for these Zuo people, as long as they do not cause trouble, they are all powerful.
When invisible...
But the problem is, if Fei Qian wants the minerals here, he has to deal with these Zuo people.
To appease?
Logically speaking, the enmity that was forged during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has almost been resolved by now. After all, two or three hundred years have passed, and there have been many generations of people in between. Just like the Xiongnu, they fought and killed each other.
Damn it, aren't you obedient now?
Fei Qian walked around the sand table. The candles in the hall were shining, causing the light and shadow on the three-dimensional sand table to change with the shaking of the candles...
However, the living environment of the Zhe people and the Xiongnu is different. On the grassland, they always have to face a new generation replacing the old, a revolving alliance. But in the mountains, isn't there a saying that there is no time in the mountains? Vision
Those who are not open-minded often have their thoughts constrained by it, so it is not surprising if the Zuo people are still thinking about what happened back then.
Therefore, you should still make preparations now. After all, the iron ore in Panzhihua...
Just thinking about it makes me drool, not to mention those associated mines. Remember, there are coal mines and granite mines. You can simply circle them and build a blast furnace on the spot!
