Zhiyao likes to use people's power, but he also exercises restraint on large-scale use of people's power.
For example, if a war breaks out, large-scale projects will be stopped immediately. There will never be a war while a large number of people are mobilized to continue the project.
The second five-year plan was split, and the first three-year plan is almost completed.
This three-year plan is to dig a canal starting from Jize, as the main road of a huge project, leading to the vicinity of "Handan".
With one main canal road in place, the second three-year plan is to build up to 32 secondary roads, forming an irrigation area covering more than 200 square miles.
It is obviously a split of the five-year plan, but how can it be completed in six years? That is because the amount of labor used is different.
Later, in the construction of water conservancy projects, prisoners of war and prisoners were used, instead of civilians drawn from various places to serve as laborers.
"So, the capital city will be launched in four years?" Sun Wu felt that he might not be able to wait for that day.
Zhiyao looked at Sun Wu, who was obviously aging, and said, "Let's see how the war progresses."
Sun Wu caught the wind and cold this time when he went south. Fortunately, he still had the foundation for regular exercise and managed to survive it, but he really couldn't be tired from long distances anymore.
The Wen Palace and the Martial Palace will be built first in the area chosen as the capital construction area. Zhiyao will of course be the mountain chief of the two palaces, and the first candidate for offering wine to the Martial Palace will be Sun Wu.
The mountain chief is the principal, and the learning place does not necessarily have to be built on the mountain.
Jijiu can be thought of as an actual manager who also holds the position of chief teacher.
It’s winter again.
The kings and ministers of the Chu State took the initiative to enter "Xinzheng" and were besieged. Because the Chu State's original army entered the mainland and wreaked havoc, the Chu State did not assemble a new army to go north for rescue for a long time.
Han Geng and Sun Wu led their troops to invade the Chu territory. The starting point of the invasion was called "Wanqiu". They then wandered around the Han River and once threatened the Chu capital "Ying". They re-entered via the "Wan" route near winter.
Zheng Guo.
Their invasion did not take long, less than five months in total. They conquered not many cities, but they carried a destructive mentality along the way, destroying villages one after another and driving the locals to flee in all directions.
Because they invaded in the autumn, they destroyed the Chu people's autumn harvest in the exhibition area, and the area they swept was a bit wide. The Chu country's harvest this year was reduced by about 30%. I don't know how much impact it will have on the Chu country.
At present, the most important area of Chu State is the Han River Basin, and most of their cities are concentrated in this area.
Dajiang? The Chu State had just seized a territory from Yang Yue, otherwise there would not have been much territory south of Dajiang before.
Yang Yue can be regarded as a semi-civilized tribal alliance. They are still in an extremely primitive social civilization and have hardly developed anything.
The land that Chu State snatched from Yang Yue had not yet had time to develop, which means that even if it controls a lot of land south of the river, it is actually just control and may not produce much output.
The most fertile triangle area in the river basin was once controlled by Wu State, but now it is in the hands of Yue State, not Chu State.
In addition, the Yangtze River Delta is still a barren land with trees at most. If you want to develop agriculture, at least the forests must be cleared first.
Therefore, the Zhuxia area may have been a grain-producing area in later generations, but it was a barbaric land during the Warring States Period. This only proves that the land of plenty was built by generations of ancestors with great effort and effort, and it was not a favor given by God.
Will Chu's Han River Basin be attacked this year? As long as Chu's monarchs and ministers are still trapped in the "Xinzheng" city, the original army will continue to move south during the spring planting period next year, with the goal of destroying Chu's production.
The candidate for the original army commander who invaded the Chu State again has been decided. General Hu Jie once again led the army to invade the Han River, and his deputy was Gao Qiang, who was the former general of the Fan family.
Therefore, the original army that invades Chu next year will be mainly cavalry. The number of troops is about 30,000, of which 20,000 are cavalry, and they will not carry auxiliary troops.
"The general is also old." Sun Wu said.
Zhiyao nodded.
Hu Jie is indeed getting old. As expected, next year's expedition will be his last. Whether he can return home alive, Hu You will take over the military affairs of the Hu family.
At the same time, Zhong Quan had passed away in early winter, and Zhong Wu became the head of the Zhong family.
The reason why Zhiyao did not stay at the "Xinzheng" battlefield was to return to China to attend Zhong Quan's funeral and witness Zhong Wu succeeding as the head of the Zhong family. To some extent, this was also an endorsement of Zhong Wu.
The Zhong family was originally made up of eight Jin clans, and there was no support from Zhiyao. Zhong Wu's attempt to succeed the Zhong family must have had twists and turns.
The Yuan country cannot be in chaos now, so the scene where Zhi Yao gave Zhong Wu a platform occurred. It was also an individual example that happened under very special circumstances. Otherwise, the king of a country would not have to do this, and the family facing the transfer of power would not allow power.
Handover interfered with.
In general, what happened to Zhong may not be a new situation in the new era, but may very well form a practice in the original country.
What is the custom? It is that when a certain family confirms the new head of the family, it needs the approval of the monarch.
"From now on, will I die here?" Sun Wu asked calmly.
Zhiyao felt only admiration in her heart when she saw Sun Wu, who looked free and easy and was even happy to see him die in education.
There is great terror between life and death, and no ordinary person can remain free and easy!
The location they were in was the area where the capital was selected. The Wen Palace and the Military Palace started construction at the same time, and it took more than two months to solidify the foundation first.
Nowadays, building a building is not about digging a foundation, but actually building a platform.
The purpose of building a platform is to raise the terrain to avoid flooding due to rain or flooding.
The foundation is laid down first, then the beams are erected, then the roof is erected, and finally the walls are built.
The person responsible for supervising the construction of the Wen Palace and the Military Palace was Gongshu Ban. He made a confident guarantee that the Wen Palace and the Military Palace would be completed within a year.
The Wen Palace and the Military Palace are not just two buildings. They include two halls for academic discussions, accommodation for students to rest, a church for teaching, and a school ground for daily exercise, among other facilities.
.
Looking at it this way, the Wen Palace and the Military Palace can actually be regarded as a group of palaces covering an area of about thirty square miles. In modern terms, it is a university town or the like.
The labor force of the public transportation team is only 60,000, and it can be guaranteed to be completed within one year. It must have been carefully calculated and planned in advance, and it has a very good management team.
"Your Majesty, are these the first batch of students?" Sun Wu asked, looking at the people who were still sweating profusely from labor in the cold weather.
Nowadays, the boundary between civil and military officials is not so clear. If you can hold an official position, the prerequisite is that your physical fitness should not be too weak.
Zhiyao was also looking at that group of people, and could still identify some people, and told Yurang: "Call Guan Fu and Tang Xiu."
Yurang saluted and responded: "No!"
Sun Wu said: "Yu Rang is not a good general."
Yes, Yurang was indeed unfit to lead an army, so he was transferred back from the local army by Zhiyao to serve as Lang Guanling.
Sun Wu said again: "Your Majesty is unwilling to restore the Bi family?"
Zhiyao shook his head and said: "The Yu family is the Yu family. Since the Wei family is dead, why bother to reestablish the Bi family."
Survival and continuation also depend on time and objects, right?
The Zhi family successively annexed Wei State and Qi State, which indeed left a legacy of blood. They also allocated two cities to continue to provide blood food to their ancestors.
The demise of the Wei family was a matter of time, especially since the Chu State was at a disadvantage in the confrontation due to various stupid tricks, which would allow the Yuan Kingdom to send more troops to encircle and suppress the remnants of the Wei family. Why would Zhiyao deliberately leave a tail and ask for trouble?
In the final analysis, whether the Wei family died in the civil war, or the Zhi family used methods to eliminate it, it is not a bad thing if they do not try to eradicate the roots.
Sun Wu advised: "Replacing the Zhou Dynasty is an innovation, and the ancient rituals should be retained when necessary."
Of course Li Yao understands this.
"It is no longer necessary to keep the Wei family. Besides, I asked Yurang about it, but he had no intention of doing so," Zhiyao said.
Only then did Sun Wu stop persuading him.
After a short while, Guan Fu and Tang Xiu were brought over, and they bowed to Zhiyao very excitedly.
It was not by chance that Zhiyao could remember these two people.
Guan Fu, who was born in Qi State, was the first person appointed to serve as village chief and gave Zhiyao a foundation to remember. Later, not long ago, Guan Fu went to serve in Lu District and captured the bandit leader without any loss.
More than a thousand people were persuaded to surrender, and they were highly recommended by their superiors.
Able and lucky? Zhiyao is still willing to give more opportunities to such people.
Tang Xiu was born in Nanyan, and was a mixed blood of Zhuxia and Di people. He had repeatedly made contributions in resolving areas where the majority of Rong people ruled in the original country. Looking at his resume, it can be seen that he was firmly on the side of Zhuxia.
Considering that the original country will definitely expand to the north in the future and can use people of mixed race and firm stance, cultivating and reserving talents early will obviously be a good choice.
Being so close, Zhiyao could see the mist above the two of them.
The weather was so cold that it was so foggy when talking, but Guan Fu and Tang Xiu's body temperatures increased after working. I wonder if the fog above their heads was because they were too excited?
Zhiyao did not deliberately show a kind side, and of course she would not put on a fierce face. She casually asked the two of them about their past and present situations.
In fact, that’s right!
Kindness from a superior person is extremely expensive, and because the status gap is so large, showing kindness will intimidate people.
Guan Fu was still in a dazed state until he left, and Tang Xiu was not much better.
"Why did your Majesty summon you two?"
As people with advanced training qualifications, they knew not to ask, and they couldn't help but be too envious.
As a result, Guan Fu and Tang Xiu just looked silly and happy.
The classmates were not angry either.
They know very well that if they had that kind of treatment, it would be equally difficult to become normal for a while.
Guan Fu was more than a moment slow, and then he came to his senses and replied: "Your Majesty just asked about my life, career history, and ambitions."
Speaking of this, Tang Xiu looked regretful and annoyed.
When asked about his ambition just now, Tang Xiu's answer was that he wanted to be rich and noble. Seeing that the monarch couldn't help but laugh, he himself also giggled.
Who doesn't want to be rich? Just answering the monarch like that seems a bit stupid?
Tang Xiu thought to himself: "Am I doomed in the future?"
The same question was asked, with Tang Xiu standing in front of him, giving Guan Fu enough time to think. Guan Fu's answer was to serve the monarch, which seemed very hypocritical, but it sounded like a standard answer.
A group of classmates really did not expect to see the monarch here, and some people were summoned by the monarch. They had to start to look forward to it and think about how they should respond once they were summoned by the monarch.
In the past, there were many people who thought they were here to learn, not to work hard. Due to the appearance of the monarch, and the examples of Guan Fu and Tang Xiu, all complaints disappeared completely. I believe they will become more hardworking and uncomplaining in the future.
.
It's right for them to be resentful.
How to say?
There is no shortage of people among them who were "scholars" or officials before, but because their home country was annexed and the original country did not recognize the titles of other countries, they need to fight again. They have resentment and want to stand out again, so they hide it. I really didn't expect it.
You also have to work like a farmer or servant.
As for people who were originally nothing, they feel that they have now become superiors. When working, they will inevitably think of their past experiences, and they will be even more reluctant to participate in similar labor.
No joke, the background of the times was like that. Some people could do farm work for their families due to their status, but it was impossible for them to participate in engineering labor.
Because of Zhiyao's actions, things suddenly changed, but I don't know if Zhiyao discovered their reluctance and acted like that.
"The skills of superiors and subordinates are becoming more and more perfect." Sun Wu was older and he didn't have so many worries about what he said.
Zhiyao just smiled and said nothing.
No one is born a leader, they have not yet figured it out bit by bit.
"Where is Ming currently?" Zhiyao asked suddenly.
Sun Ming is the second son of Sun Wu.
Sun Wu's eldest son, Sun Chi, died for his country in the "Battle of Baiju".
"Should we be 'warming'?" Sun Wu didn't look so sure.
It is strange to say that, needless to say, Sun Wu's military talent turned out to be mediocre among his three sons.
The eldest son, Sun Chi, died in the war early and there is no mention of it.
Because of Sun Wu's relationship, the second son Sun Ming will not lack a stage to display his talents as long as he has the ability, and Zhiyao has given him the opportunity more than once. For a long time, his performance has either been mediocre or there have been relatively big omissions, causing outbreaks in many places.
During the war, due to the extreme lack of commanding generals, he got a position in the "warm" area to transfer grain and fodder.
The youngest son, Sun Di, simply did not serve as an official, and later returned to Qidi to take charge of some sacrificial matters.
Zhiyao said: "How about bringing Ming here?"
Because Sun Chi has no heirs, Sun Wu's family business will be inherited by Sun Ming.
With Sun Wu as a father, Zhi Yao must give Sun Ming, as the successor, a good future no matter what, otherwise others should say that Zhi Yao treated the hero harshly.
Sun Wu looked a little grateful, but more frightened, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, my descendants are mediocre. If you inherit the title, the family business will be fine, and it must not be reused!"
Zhiyao looked at Sun Wu in surprise and said, "How can this be so?"
Sun Wu said: "What you do is a reform. Those who are able work harder, those who are incompetent can enjoy wealth and honor, and do not let them cause harm to one party."
What Dingge is is to change the rules that are considered inappropriate.
However, Sun Wu really relied on his age and dared to say anything!
