Wang Can stood with his hands behind his back, staring at the sand table in front of him, nodded with satisfaction, and smiled.
He recalled the three people of Xu Shu with an order, and after handling the affairs of Xu Shu, Shi Tao and Meng Jian, Wang Can began to make a sand table. After nearly half a month, Wang Can finally made a rough outline of the landforms of Chengdu and the surrounding areas.
It can be completed in a short time because Chengdu is under the jurisdiction of Wang Can and he can easily get the map of Chengdu to make a simple sand table.
If not, the map alone would be exhausting, let alone making a sandbox.
Wang Can stared at the sand table with a smile on his face, becoming more and more satisfied, and his heart was filled with an indescribable sense of accomplishment.
"Tap! Tread!"
Outside the study, there was a burst of chaotic footsteps.
When footsteps sounded, there were also whispers. After a while, there was a gentle knock on the door. After Wang Can heard the sound, his face suddenly showed a look of joy and said: "Come in!" The voice fell,
The door creaked open, and Xun You, Guo Jia and Cheng Yu quickly walked in.
When the three of them entered the study, they saw a sand table one foot wide and one foot long placed in the study.
Fortunately, the study room is very spacious and can accommodate a sand table that is one foot wide and one foot long. Even so, it makes the study room seem a bit crowded. In the sand table, Wang Can used soil to pile up the topography of Chengdu, which is very detailed and even
Important terrains such as woods, rivers, and valleys are all marked one by one.
When Xun You saw it, his eyes shone with an expression of disbelief on his face. Seeing this, Guo Jia's eyes also said something strange. Although their eyes were attracted by the sand table, Cheng Yu and the others bowed respectfully to Wang Can and said: "
Meet my lord!"
Wang Can waved his hand and said: "No need to be rigid about etiquette, how about you tell me about this thing?"
Xun You rubbed his hands, looking a little excited, and said: "In the past, when the First Emperor destroyed the six kingdoms, he personally created such terrain and deployed military strategies. The founding Emperor of this dynasty, Emperor Guangwu, conquered Tianshui, and the powerful locals in the Wudu area
At that time, the general Ma Yuan "gathered rice into a valley and pointed out the situation", which immediately made Emperor Guangwu feel like he was "in my eyes". Although there are special items for making topography, they are not easy to make, but he did not expect that the Lord
To make such a big map.”
Wang Can smiled and said: "Gongda, this is a detailed map of Chengdu. Take a look at it carefully."
Xun You stepped forward and watched carefully.
He stared at the sand table and exclaimed: "The Prefectural Mufu, the city tower, the valley, the river, etc. are all marked in detail. If you have this in hand when fighting the enemy, it will be even more powerful!"
After hearing this, Guo Jia was also very surprised, but sighed: "Although it has great uses, the manpower and material resources consumed to make this thing are too large, and the feasibility is not high."
After a pause, Guo Jia continued: "If your lord wants to make a detailed map of Yizhou, he can send soldiers to explore the terrain of various places in Yizhou, and finally get a map of Yizhou, and then make a detailed map of Yizhou based on the map.
The map of Yizhou is easy to solve because the lord can openly explore the terrain of Yizhou. However, other states and counties belong to the sphere of influence of other princes. It is difficult for the lord to draw a detailed map and it is not easy to complete.
"
Xun You stretched out his hand and stroked his beard and said: "Feng Xiao's words make sense. It is indeed not easy to make such a detailed map. But when the two armies are fighting, having this thing in hand is a sharp weapon!"
Cheng Yu stared at the sand table, his eyes flashing, and said in a deep voice: "With such a sharp weapon in hand, even if it costs a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources, it is worth it, and there is no loss."
After hearing this, Guo Jia nodded in agreement.
From Guo Jia's perspective, he can certainly see the value of the sand table. It's just that it's easy to say, but it's not easy to make. Just trying to draw a detailed map of each major state is difficult, it is a complicated matter.
.Besides, it involves an important pass, and other princes are guarded by soldiers, making it difficult to approach.
Wang Can thought for a while and said: "Although it is somewhat difficult, it is not impossible and can be completed."
Guo Jia cupped his fists and asked, "What can my lord do?"
Wang Can showed a confident expression on his face, turned his eyes to the outside of the study, and shouted: "Come here!" After giving the order, an attendant quickly ran in from outside the room. The attendant bowed to Wang Can and stood up.
Waiting for Wang Can's order in the study. Wang Can withdrew his eyes, still staring at the sand table, and said: "Go and invite Wang Yue to come to the study!"
"promise!"
The attendant answered with clasped fists, then turned and left.
At this time, Guo Jia cupped his fists and said, "My lord, this is wonderful!"
When Wang Can heard this, he smiled. Guo Jia obviously knew what he was thinking, so he spoke like this. When Cheng Yu and Xun You heard Wang Can's words, they also showed thinking expressions. After thinking about it for a while, they showed a look of surprise on their faces.
.As for Wang Can's method, the two of them also figured it out. Hero Towers are all over the world, and it is most appropriate for Hero Towers to send people to describe them.
Although it is difficult to send people to draw detailed maps of various states and counties, it is still a feasible method. Not long after, Wang Yue hurried to the study.
Entering the study, Wang Yue paid homage: "I am humbled by my duties, Wang Yue, and I pay my respects to my lord."
Wang Can nodded and said: "Ziwu, this time I will give the Hero Building a difficult task. You can send someone to handle it immediately."
Wang Yue cupped his fists and said, "Master, please speak!"
Wang Can looked solemn and said seriously: "Send someone to notify Wu Huang, Zhou Ren, Zhao Wei, Chen Hong and other eight people in charge of the Hero Building, and ask them to find people who are familiar with the topography and are reliable and trustworthy.
The map of the prefecture and county where it is located should be drawn as carefully as possible. The map must include mountains, forests, valleys, rivers, etc. It can take a longer time to complete, but the emphasis is on details. You and Shi A are responsible for the maps of Yizhou County and Guanzhong.
, find some reliable people who are familiar with the topography and landforms, and draw the maps of Yizhou and Guanzhong as soon as possible."
Wang Yue nodded in agreement and asked, "My lord, how long will it take?"
Wang Can thought for a while and said: "Yizhou is resting and recuperating, and there will be no war for the time being. Let's do this. I will give you one year to draw all the maps as much as possible. You must hurry up on the maps of Guanzhong and Yizhou, and the rest of Yanzhou
Even if Qingzhou and Jizhou cannot be completed in one year, we can still postpone it for a while. After all, we have no direct relationship with Yanzhou and other places, so we can delay it for a while, but the situation in Guanzhong is unstable and a war is likely to occur, so we must complete it as soon as possible."
"promise!"
Wang Yue nodded and agreed.
Wang Can asked again: "Shi A moved the Hero Building in Chang'an back to Chengdu. Will there be anything to do after returning to Chengdu?"
When Wang Yue heard Wang Can ask about Shi A, he was delighted. This was Shi A's opportunity! He didn't hesitate and said hurriedly: "Shi A has taken over the Hero Building in Yizhou after returning to Chengdu.
Preside over the affairs of Yizhou Hero Building."
Wang Can smiled lightly and said: "Let him work hard, and there will be a time when he can be reused."
Wang Yue hurriedly thanked him and said: "Thank you so much, my lord. I will tell Shi A about my humble position and let him work steadily." Wang Can's words just now, although he did not express anything, have already made a promise in disguise, and he will definitely reuse Shi A. In this way,
Come and give Shi A a reassurance, so that he can do his current job with peace of mind.
After the matter was settled, Wang Yue bowed to Wang Can and turned to leave. Wang Can watched Wang Yue leave. After Wang Yue left the study, Wang Can waved his hand and said: "Sit down!"
The three of them sat down and waited for Wang Can to ask questions.
Wang Can looked at Cheng Yu and asked: "Zhong Degong, have any talents emerged in Yizhou in recent times?"
Cheng Yu clasped his fists and said: "Reporting to my lord, in addition to Meng Jian, Xu Shu, and Shi Tao who have already gone to Yuexi County, Zangda County, and Ba County to take up posts, there are also a few more outstanding talents. Such as Fazheng, Zhang Song,
Although the county governed by these four people, Zheng Du and Deng Zhi, is not as outstanding as Xu Shu and others, the people are peaceful and the achievements are outstanding, which is worthy of praise. However, Fazheng has just been crowned, and Zhang Song, Deng Zhi, and Zheng Du are still very young, so Shang
It needs training."
Wang Can nodded and wrote down a few people.
These people are all talents from Yizhou, and they must be trained hard before they can achieve great things.
After a pause, Wang Can looked at Xun You again and asked: "Gongda, you are in charge of Yizhou's military affairs and are responsible for troop training. Have you found any good seedlings?"
Hearing this, Xun You also showed a bright smile on his face and said: "In the past year, several outstanding generals have indeed emerged in the army. Among them, Chen Dao, Zhang Ren, Liu Sui and others have all emerged and become lieutenant colonels.
Lieutenant. Among these people, Chen Dao and Zhang Ren are the most outstanding. Although they are both young, they have superb martial arts skills, extraordinary abilities, and good ability to lead troops. They will definitely become generals in the army and command the army in the future.
.”
Hearing that Zhang Ren and Chen Dao have grown up, Wang Can is also very happy.
Although he has Zhao Yun, Gao Shun, Gan Ning and other generals under his command, no one can have too many talents.
If Wang Can wants to achieve great things, he needs more talents to join Yizhou and contribute to the development of Yizhou, so that Yizhou can flourish, stand out from the crowd, and eventually dominate the world.
Wang Can looked at Guo Jia and asked: "Fengxiao, how is the situation in Chang'an?"
Matters in Chang'an have always been handled by Guo Jia, so Wang Can asked Guo Jia directly.
Hearing this, Guo Jia said sternly: "Replying to my lord, Fan Chou, Li Meng, and Zhang Ji are all powerful and have begun to fight for power. However, although the three of them are intrigues, they have not yet openly fought against each other. Yi Jia estimates that this situation will be very serious.
It may continue for a long time, and when their old grievances have accumulated enough, they will suddenly burst out."
Wang Can had a satisfied smile on his face. The good military and political development showed that Yizhou was developing well, which was a good thing.
Wang Can continued: "It's better if Fan Chou and others don't use their weapons for the time being. This way, we will have time to develop quickly and accumulate strength so that we can conquer Guanzhong in one go."
After Wang Can understood the general situation, he sent Cheng Yu and others away to the backyard.
Although he was busy with work, Wang Can still went to the backyard for a walk every day to see how the three women were doing. After strolling around the backyard, Wang Can returned to the study again.
He took out a stack of Zuo Bo paper from the table and thought carefully about the reform in the military. After several months of deliberation, Wang Can had almost perfected this matter.
Military reform is imperative.
