In the Central Plains, there is a bustling labor scene. Soldiers from various corps and young and strong people were working along both sides of the Yellow River.
On the farmland ridges, the soldiers from various counties did not show weakness. Under the leadership of officials, they built water canals.
The King of Han said that no matter whether it is a flood or a drought, the people must have food to eat and the canals must be repaired. And those elderly people who did not participate in the management of the Yellow River now need to build canals on their own farm ridges. How can they fall behind? Everyone joined in.
¡°Whether it¡¯s the north wind howling or the snowflakes flying, the soldiers and the people are very motivated, and the officials are not to be outdone. Some even pick up the farm tools themselves and start working hard.
Liu Cong led important officials from the six departments of the Han Dynasty on an inspection tour starting from Luoyang. Wherever they went, everyone became more motivated.
In some places, Liu Cong discovered that there were two canals of different depths. When he asked about it, local officials came over and explained that one was used to divert water for irrigation during droughts, and the other was used to divert excess water from farmland during floods. Lead back to the river.
Liu Cong took a closer look and found that the two canals were not only different in depth, but also obviously in different heights and directions. The water flow in the canals was completely opposite. He once again admired the wisdom of the ancients.
Once the Central Plains region took action, Liangzhou, Yizhou, and Guanzhong regions also took action.
Zhang Song, the governor of Yizhou, and Jian Yong, the prefect of Hanzhong, took the lead in taking action. Huang Quan, Fei Guan, Wang Lian, Qin Mi, Deng Zhi and others worked closely together to first strengthen Dujiangyan outside Chengdu, and then along the Yangtze River To govern.
Han Sui, the governor of Liangzhou, and Li Yan, the commander-in-chief of the Liangzhou Corps, personally led soldiers and local people to manage the river along the Yellow River.
In the Guanzhong area, under the leadership of generals such as Wang Ping and Hao Zhao, local officials began to build water conservancy projects and regulate the Wei River. They stretched more than 200 miles from Chencang to Xianyang and strengthened the embankments.
??Wu County, Wuhou Mansion.
Sun Quan summoned Zhang Zhao, Gu Yong, Lu Fan, Lu Meng, Lu Xun, Zhuge Jin and others.
On the desk, there were pieces of information from various places, and Sun Quan asked everyone to look at them one by one.
"Ha" When everyone had finished reading, Sun Quan suddenly laughed a few times, "Liu Cong is really young and vigorous. He won't be able to take any time off this winter!"
"Yes, my lord, isn't it a waste of effort for this man of good weather to control the Yellow River and build water conservancy projects? Could it be that he wants to soak all the crops in the fields to death?" Lu Fan couldn't help but laugh.
People in Jiangdong don¡¯t quite understand Liu Cong¡¯s approach, because they have never seen the Yellow River flood, nor have they experienced severe drought in the Central Plains. The Yangtze River is always so gentle when it reaches Jiangdong. Many people think that Liu Cong has nothing to do in winter.
"My lord, although King Han's move does not make much sense, his subordinates have seen a terrifying force. We must not ignore it!" Zhang Zhao did not smile and frowned.
"What does Zibu mean? Please tell me clearly!" Zhang Zhao's words made Sun Quan a little confused, and he asked hurriedly.
At the same time, Lu Meng, Lu Xun, Gu Yong, Lu Fan and others also looked at Zhang Zhao, obviously they were not clear either.
"This force is the people's support!"
"People's hearts"
After hearing Zhang Zhao¡¯s words, everyone present frowned.
"From the information, it seems that there are not only soldiers but also ordinary people who are building water conservancy and regulating the Yellow River, and there are hundreds of thousands of them. It is freezing in the north and the cold wind is howling, but these ordinary people spontaneously went to participate. This is enough It shows that the King of Han has won the hearts of the people." Zhang Zhao looked worried, "Since ancient times, those who win the hearts of the people win the world. We must beware of this."
"These people are all wise men. After listening to Zhang Zhao's words, they naturally understood the truth.
"The Han army has never been defeated in battle. From this, it can be seen that not only are the soldiers brave and the weapons sharp, but more importantly, the people's hearts!" Lu Xun looked a little confused. He used to be very confident, but recently he carefully studied the tactics of the Han army. Several battles between the Han army and the Wei army, as well as several battles with them in Jiangdong, made him realize that the truly terrifying people were not the generals of the Han army, but the King of Han Liu Cong. At this time, combined with what Zhang Zhao said about the people's support, He even felt that it was difficult to defeat the King of Han, or that it was impossible to defeat him at all.
"Does Zibu have any good ideas?"
"My lord should reduce the taxes on the people and win back the people's support!"
"Zibu, this is wrong!" Sun Quan looked a little angry after hearing Zhang Zhao's words, "If taxes are reduced, how will we support the soldiers?"
"Vigorously develop commerce and increase taxes on merchants"??¡±
"This" Sun Quan felt very embarrassed. The business in Jiangdong was done by big families. Wouldn't raising taxes on merchants hurt the interests of these big families? If you don't get their support, how can you gain a foothold in Jiangdong?
"My lord, business profits are huge now, but the people can only grow food to support their families. Over the years we have governed Shanyue, we have always been unable to get the Shanyue people to really leave the jungle, but Liu Cong has been able to calmly let the Wuxi barbarians in Jingnan. The reason for this was because of the grain tax!" Zhang Zhao saluted Sun Quan and said, "The major families have hidden a lot of land area and tenant population, which leaves us with nowhere to source our troops. Recruitment, food and grass are nowhere to be collected, and all the big families are rich and can reach the country. Once foreign enemies invade, these people will only think about their own interests, and will sell to their masters for glory at the first time. Only by connecting them with the lord, Only then can our Jiangdong hegemony be strengthened."
"My lord, Zhang Changshi is right. We can't be so tolerant of those big families!" Lu Meng also said.
"Lord, it's time for us to make a decision!" Lu Xun saluted Sun Quan, "Cao Cao acted on his merits and hurt the interests of many aristocratic families, but in the end he was able to defeat Yuan Shao and unify the north. When Liu Cong, the king of Han, rose from , then he does not rely on the aristocratic family, but on the people of the world. In fact, the lord does not need to target the aristocratic family, nor the people of the world, but the hegemony. As long as it is beneficial to Jiangdong's hegemony, the lord should do it. The lord can use the great talents of the aristocratic family. , but those who commit crimes must also be punished. Just like the King of Han, in a few years, the big families will be restricted, and the small families will rise and be able to compete with them, thus reaching a balance and unable to challenge the lord's hegemony. It's posing a threat."
"My lord, Bo Yan's words are very reasonable!" Lu Xun's method won Zhang Zhao's approval. At the same time, Lu Meng, Gu Yong, Lu Meng and others also nodded.
"Okay!" Sun Quan finally made up his mind, "Zi Bu, Boyan, you two come up with a strategy. Gu Ye will follow the example of Liu Cong, the King of Han, and rely on talents to develop business, reward farming and weaving, and restrict aristocratic families!"
