As soon as these words came out, half of the courtiers in the Han Dynasty had their senses broken. But looking at the terrain, they had to accept this fact. They had all been on the battlefield when they were young, and they all knew that the mountain road was difficult to walk. The time can be said to be very reasonable.
"Let's just talk about another plan, the one to build the road." Zhang Jian couldn't help it anymore and just relied on his old age. My life is not meant to be squandered by you bastards. I don't have a few more years to live. Let me Before you die, see if that place is okay and give you an answer.
Sun Qian nodded. In this dynasty, there will be many old guys from the previous generation, the previous generation, and even the previous generation. These are the old guys who will not work if you don't like Cao Cao, and Cao Cao can't do anything with them. Guys, but due respect must be given.
"This is the second option!" The light screen changed instantly, and a viaduct appeared on it, directly connecting from one hilltop to another. The distance that might have taken several days to cross was now covered within a few minutes. Done.
"This is a bridge..." Zhang Jian squinted his eyes and said, and then he instantly understood how reliable this plan was. He couldn't help but admire Sun Qian, "This method is very good. It can be said that from Chengdu to Zhongnan, it is a bridge." Smooth road."
"Well, it is indeed a smooth road." Sun Qian nodded and said. He spent a lot of effort, brought a bunch of master craftsmen, and a mathematician to work for eight months, and finally determined the design, and now he can finally start. Built.
"This plan..." Liu Tong looked at it for a long time and finally said, "How much is it worth?"
"Your Majesty, it's better not to ask." Zhao Qi said with a wry smile, "So what if the cost exceeds 100 million yuan? Even if the road from Chengdu to Central and South China costs no less than 100 billion yuan to build, will all of you here give up the construction? Ask, just It can make people worry more.”
As soon as Zhao Qi said these words, not to mention Liu Tong gave up the idea of asking, all the courtiers lost interest in asking about this matter. As the old lady often said, what's the use of asking? I asked if it can be repaired? Of course not. No matter how much it costs, as long as the Han Dynasty can afford such a thing, then everyone in the Han court will definitely build this road.
As for the land in Kushan that has three crops a year and the fertile soil that yields more than ten stones per acre, no matter how high the cost is, it will not be a loss. Therefore, no matter how crazy the result is, the officials of the Han Dynasty will not stop. Since In this case, it’s better not to ask, it will save you trouble.
"In short, the county roads from Chang'an to Hanzhong and Hanzhong to Chengdu are about to be repaired. Since the roads are built in straight lines, a conventional cavalry regiment with one man and two horses can be guaranteed to arrive from Chang'an within eight days." Sun Qian explained with a smile.
This road from Chang'an to Chengdu basically completely solved the Sichuan-Shu rebellion problem.
In fact, the distance from Chang'an to Chengdu is not very far, only more than 600 kilometers. In the past, it would have taken several months to leave Sichuan. If it was slower, it would even take more than half a year. In fact, it was more due to the road, and Liu Zhang and Cao Cao's The road construction method is straight line.
The distance of 600 kilometers, at the marching speed of an ordinary cavalry regiment, would actually be covered in eight days. After all, the increase in the essence of heaven and earth has indeed strengthened a lot of things.
As soon as Sun Qian said these words, it was like a shot in the arm for everyone. Even the old guy's breathing became a little heavier. This is the rhythm of going to heaven. From Chang'an to Chengdu, one person and two horses, an army. It only takes eight days to arrive.
Compared with the distance from Chengdu to Zhongnan, if you look at the map, the difference is actually only two or three times. Doesn't this mean that once the road is built, it will only take one month to forty days to send troops from Chang'an to get there? Time? This can directly be regarded as the local essence area!
In terms of the current ruling ability of the Han Dynasty, a march within fifty days is not a problem at all. The standard empire's ruling limit is almost a hundred days. Since road construction can greatly increase the limit range, what is there to say? If you cultivate, if you don’t cultivate, you are not a human being!
What's more, since building the road can bring that area under the control of the Han family, there is nothing more to say. It must be built. Just pass it through a road and declare that you are all ours!
"In this case, we should start construction now." Zhang Zhao asked suspiciously.
"The construction period will take about fifteen to twenty months. We will start construction in several places at the same time." Sun Qian nodded and said. Suddenly, several old men from previous generations in the court were carried out and sent to the imperial doctor. However, their hearts cannot bear the impact.
"Can you please hurry up?" Zhao Qi seemed to be the kind of guy who was particularly stubborn. He did not suffer from heart discomfort due to the impact, and he asked excitedly.
But after all, he is still a person in his nineties. Even if he is a very, very stubborn type, it does not mean that he is very confident that he can live to be more than a hundred years old. After all, he has been buried in the loess up to his neck. Zhao Qi Even if I can eat and drink, I am still worried about when my family will be finished.
If there was no concern before, and I thought it would be over when it was over, recently this guy really didn’t want to be over. It felt like he had seen more excitement in the past two years than in the previous three dynasties. He was the Farmer Emperor and the Empress. Such a great fun.
Having so much fun and not watching the finale, Zhao Qi felt that it would be unfair to die now. The fertile soil that is harvested three times a year can still produce twelve stones. Zhao Qi decided that he must survive until that day, and then go and see , unable to die now, Zhao Qi suddenly felt anxious.
"This really doesn't work." Sun Qian said helplessly, "This is already the fastest speed. No matter how fast it is, I can't guarantee the quality."
"Well, how about I help you find some bridge builders? I think this is also a bridge." Zhao Qi said helplessly. I can't afford that time, but I can shorten the construction period. Isn't it just a bridge? I There are people here who can build a bridge of this size.
"This is okay." Sun Qian nodded and said.
Although Sun Qian nodded in agreement, he didn't take it to heart. The bridge he wanted to build and the bridge Zhao Qi knew were completely different things. From Sun Qian's current perspective, basically the bridge builders of the current era have little regard for For Sun Qian, everything needs to be remade.
"Do you think it's useless to be a prisoner?" Zhao Qi, an old guy who has become a man, how can he not see the scorn in Sun Qian's heart, "I think the distance across the mountains is only four to five hundred steps. , there are still some old guys who can repair this kind of bridge."
"I'll get you the people who built the Third Weishui Bridge later." Zhao Qi touched his chin and said.
Zhao Qi has been working on Taichang for a long time. The Three Weishui Bridge often involved rituals and music, so Zhao Qi also repaired it. By the way, the Three Weishui Bridge is one of the most famous bridges in ancient China. It was built during the Qin and Han Dynasties. , the piers of Dongwei Bridge are still in use in the 21st century...
The so-called learning martial arts skills and selling them to the emperor's family. In the ancient feudal era, even if the major families had some secret secrets, it would be a bit too much to compare with the royal family who dominated the world. The strong group of bridge builders were basically squatting in the Han Dynasty Shaofu.
It can be said that given the situation in the Han Dynasty, if it were not for serious attempts to seek death, all kinds of characters would definitely be able to be found if needed.
The bridge-building technology of the Qin and Han Dynasties was pushed to a certain limit by some freak-level bosses. The Zhongwei Bridge was used from the Qin Dynasty to the late Tang Dynasty, and was finally destroyed by war. The bridge spanned nearly 900 meters from north to south. rice……
Zhao Qi had never thought about building a bridge in the mountains before, but Sun Qian opened his mind and saw the last image. Zhao Qi's mind turned around and he realized it.
Isn’t it just building a bridge? Building a bridge on the water is a bridge, isn’t building a bridge on the road also a bridge?
How far is the distance between the two hills? The Weishui Bridge spans 900 meters. How far can the two hills in the Hengduan Mountains normally be? Well, even if it is this far, believe it or not, we can make it longer. , I have a fellow countryman who has been doing this for seventy years. Twenty years ago he heard that he was about to die, and recently he seems to be saying that he is about to die. I think he can do it!
"Yes, the three bridges on the Weishui River are all about 500 steps apart. We still have the bridge-building technology of this standard, and we should be able to find two to three hundred people here who can build such bridges." Zhang Jian also reacted now.
Zhang Jian was stunned before and didn't think deeply about it. Now he has realized it and suddenly realized, isn't this a long bridge with a length of 500 steps? He really thought it was difficult to build, and he studied it for eight months? Old man's Life is not meant for you to consume like this. If you are given a group of people, hurry up and create them.
We, who are almost in coffins, are still waiting to see what the fertile soil that yields twelve stones per acre is like, and we are still waiting for one of you to bring back some so that I can fill the grave with soil before I die.
In fact, after Zhang Jian said this, people from the previous generation, including Jia Xu, had already realized, isn't this a bridge with a relatively large span? No one in other places in the Central Plains may be able to build it, but there is really one in Chang'an. Hundreds of people can fix this thing.
I have been walking on the Three Bridges of the Weihe River all day long, and I have become accustomed to it. I have completely forgotten that these three bridges can be said to be the embodiment of the highest level of bridge building technology in the world. It should be said that it is like a leaf that blinds the eye. Habit is indeed a very terrible force. .
"Yes, there are indeed about 300 craftsmen in Chang'an who can build such a long bridge with a span of more than 500 steps. They should be working in the Shaofu now." Jia Xu said while pressing his temples, his eyes half closed. The Weishui Bridge looked so familiar that Even he had forgotten that there was such a thing.
Soon Liu Tong ordered the young eunuch of the Shaofu to come to inquire about the matter, but the young eunuch of the Shaofu looked pale and said, "I am guilty. One hundred and twenty bridge workers and 24 professional bridge craftsmen are left. Now only Less than a hundred people."
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was silent, and Liu Tong's originally smiling expression suddenly turned cold, and he looked at the young eunuch with cold eyes. This was a deadly rhythm!
