Chapter four hundred and eighty seventh water can capsize the boat
Chen Xi, who had just set foot at the Donglai Port in Qingzhou, had no idea that such a big change had happened in Yongzhou within such a period of time since he left, let alone that Sima Lang had completely let him down with his explosive affinity and unparalleled eloquence.
Han Sui and Ma Teng stopped their troops, and what was even more ruthless was that Ma Teng was even persuaded to enter Chang'an to form an alliance with Li Jue and others in person.
In this way, under the direction of both sticks and grains, the Xiliang Qiang people decided, and the originally planned excavation work has officially begun. However, the ideal is lofty, and the reality is skinny. Although the Qiang people are willing to work for the future
In his daily life, he excavated the Zhengguo Canal and Liufu Canal, but Li Jue couldn't handle it. He didn't have the ability to control it. The mobilization of millions of laborers was no joke.
Not only Li Jue, but actually looking at the world, there are definitely no more than five fingers of people who have the ability and confidence to control millions of laborers and can properly display their abilities. Excluding Chen Xi and Lu Su who have done this before and are still doing it now!
Sima Lang can be said to be a genius, and there is no problem in allowing him to govern a state. However, to do something like mobilizing millions of laborers without decades of training is definitely too high. As a result, this matter will end up being like this.
As Xun Yu expected, it fell on Zhong Yao.
With the idea of leaving the two masters alone, Li Jue took Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, Ma Teng and others with a large pile of Cai Yong's scrolls to see Zhong Yao.
It's just not as good as the previous one.
Zhong Yao took the gift and sighed, saying that he would solve the matter by himself. In fact, he wanted to scold Xun Yu to death in his heart. He knew that Xun Yu was paving the way for him, but he launched the project of millions of people and it was done.
Needless to say, when Cao Mengde takes over, he will definitely be the first civil servant under Xun Yu, but what if it doesn't work? It would be strange if he doesn't get dug up and buried.
"Boda, why are you here again?" Zhong Yao looked at Sima Lang with a wry smile, "Xun Wenruo is so embarrassed. He has given me such a big problem. The arrow has to be fired when the arrow is on the string. I have to take over this matter anyway. Alas.
, Xun Wenruo is such a good general, he can forget everything he can."
"Zhong Shangshu, the minister asked me to give you this letter, saying that you will understand it as soon as you read it." Sima Lang lowered his head and took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Zhong Yao. He lowered his head and stopped answering.
Then the eyes observe the nose, and the nose observes the heart.
To be honest, since he came to Sili, Sima Lang had confidently observed Xiliang soldiers. In addition, he exceeded the tasks assigned to him by Li Jue. Li Jue naturally trusted him and let him get in touch with a lot of Xiliang military affairs.
Because of this, Sima Lang was extremely worried about Cao Cao's plan to annex Xiliang, or even take over Xiliang in Xun Yu's words, because it was too strong.
On the surface, there are only fifty thousand Xiliang cavalry, but after Sima Lang came into contact with the military system of the Xiliang soldiers, all his original confidence turned into bitterness.
The so-called death of Dong Zhuo and the collapse of his followers is a joke. It is true that hundreds of thousands of Qiang cavalry disappeared immediately after Dong Zhuo's death, and the strength of the Xiliang army dropped significantly. However, Sima Lang only understood after he came into contact with the truth.
Those Qiang cavalry are not mercenaries like Hu Congjun or Danyang soldiers, but servants. They are the same as the civilians on the battlefield in the Central Plains. However, these civilians are more advanced and are equivalent to second-rate soldiers...
In other words, if the Zheng Guo Canal is reopened and the Xiliang soldiers have food, they can regain the original Xiliang military strength at any time. Are you afraid of nearly 300,000 cavalry?
When Sima Lang learned this, he had no confidence in Xun Yu's plan. Any plan must be backed by strength. Although the Qiang cavalry accounted for more than 80% of the 300,000 cavalry, their combat effectiveness was no joke.
However, although Sima Lang felt desperate, he still followed Xun Yu's orders and completed the things Xun Yu told him. After all, he also wanted to see how Xun Wenruo would accomplish this plan that was almost like a snake swallowing an elephant.
When he raised his head again, Zhong Yao had already read the entire letter. After turning around and burning the entire letter with an oil lamp, he looked at Sima Lang with a calm expression, "Boda, you can just follow Li Zhiran's orders from now on. Yongzhou is a star."
The fruit will not reach Xiliang. Xun Wenruo will take one step at a time and look at the next three steps, and then go back and tell General Hussar that I need a large number of civil servants to manage."
"Here!" A flash of shock flashed in Sima Lang's eyes. Although he didn't know what Xun Yu wrote in this letter, but Zhong Yao could say this, I'm afraid Xun Wenruo has already arranged the matter in Yongzhou.
After Sima Lang left, Zhong Yao sighed, "Xun Wenruo, Xun Wenruo, you are really powerful. These people will all become your pawns by then. I just don't know what role I play in your arrangement."
After finishing speaking, Zhong Yao silently looked to the east and sighed, "But this is what makes it interesting. There are people in this world who are beyond your expectations. It is also interesting to push you to this level. Let's see what happens to the two of you."
In the end, who was the better player? Now we no longer take risks, we are playing steadily!"
"It's a pity that the Yang family of the fifth generation and the three princes will be difficult to stand up again in the future. Chess pieces, chess pieces, it's a pity for Yang Dezu. If you can get out of this game, you may still have a chance, but now I'm afraid you will just be tired of coping, but
Please don't die, I still appreciate you." Zhong Yao looked back at the Yang Mansion with a hint of ridicule, and then returned to his normal nerd state.
Chen Xi, who had just stepped off the ship, naturally did not know about these things, but even if he knew, it would be difficult to intervene due to such a long distance. What's more, the Zheng Guoqu incident has reached this point and has become the victim of millions of people in the three areas of Yongliang and Sili.
I hope that thanks to the prestige of Xiliang Bing and the prestige of Ma Teng, this matter has already spread throughout the three states. At this point, it is necessary to practice even if you don't practice.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, what the common people wanted was just a mouthful of food. Why did the Yellow Turbans rebel? Besides that food, what else could they do? And when Li Jue and others specifically claimed that as long as the Zheng Guo Canal was reopened, the people around him would have food to eat.
The canal must be dug, otherwise it will block the people's way of survival!
The so-called general situation is overwhelming. Some things are not mentioned and no one cares about them. But when something is mentioned, it has to be done. Li Jue didn't know that when he planned to dig and dredge the Zheng Guo Canal, it meant that it had to be done.
There must be a result, and now it is Zhong Yao who holds their lifeline...
"Kong Ming, Boyan is gone. Let's see how the construction of Donglai is going. We are average in everything else. We are very confident in construction. At least until now, I have never seen anyone who is better at it than me." Chen Xi slapped Zhuge Liang.
He and Lu Xun looked at the people passing by and said with a smile.
When Chen Xi left before, this place was just deserted, but when he came back and wasted a little more time, what he didn't expect was that the port had been repaired and had become somewhat popular.
