New Story of Lv Bu

It was the end of March in a blink of an eye, and it was Qingming. After Qingming, it was the sowing season when the scalpers were walking everywhere, but the thief didn't even rain a single drop of rain. Looking at the world of the Han Dynasty, except for Yangzhou and Jingzhou, where there are many rivers and lakes and abundant rainfall, and Yizhou, which is far away from the middle earth, there are such scenes everywhere. It has not rained for three full months.

"Let's go, let's see Zheng Guoqu." Lü Bu stood up from the embankment of the big river and sighed. The thin quick boots under his feet felt the heat of the soil, and when he lifted his foot, he stepped on a piece of hard soil. Become dust. Looking around, the water level of the entire river seems to have dropped a lot. The master craftsman and craftsman Cao Zhuan Lumo arranges daily measurements by craftsmen. The exact figure is that it has dropped by three feet in the past three months. For a large river with huge water volume, this is a very terrifying number, which means that the drought is intensifying day by day. If it does not rain in June and there is no rainwater to replenish, certain sections of the river will be cut off.

Long before he got up and left the water conservancy project in Luoyang City West of the capital to inspect the Guanzhong and Liangzhou to deal with the drought, an important meeting was held in Beigong with the participation of the Three Gongs and the Nine Qings. "Da Sima, this year is a dragon to control the water. It has already been said by the Order of the Greatest wish that this year is a year of severe drought, and the reduction in grain production is certain. As for how much production can be reduced, I also ask Da Sima to consult relevant officials. Since ancient times The importance of food is the first. If there are no effective measures, it will be over until prices soar and people's grievances are boiling."

Too often, Ma Rixiong has always been anxious for justice and righteousness, caring about the suffering of the people, he was the first to go out of work and let go. "Da Sima, the reduction in grain production is as high as 60%, and as little as 30%. This has already been determined. The specifics depend on the current status of water conservancy facilities in various places. Please also inquire Da Sima, who will be a master craftsman, Lu Mo. "Hu Cao Zhuan Wang Kui and Shao Fu Xun You hurriedly went out to play.

However, Lu Mo was personally supervising the repair of Zheng Guoqu in Chang'an City, Xijing, and he was unable to know the details. Looking at his melodies, I can't always tell what the problem is. This is not Lu Mo's usual style. As a last resort, Lu Bu decided to come to Chang'an to take a look. Early yesterday morning, he led two thousand tigers to the city of Chang'an. After a hurried rest for the night, he immediately went out of the city and came to the mountain by the river to come from the Australian general as a master Lu Mo. I happened to ran into Lu Mo who was going to return to Beijing personally to report a major event.

At the end of the Warring States period, the seven heroes fought for hegemony, and Qin repeatedly sent troops to invade South Korea, but South Korea could not resist. In desperation, he had no choice but to send the famous hydraulic worker Zheng Guo as a spy to the west to persuade the king of Qin to repair the canal. Zheng's goal is simple. Repairing the canal takes a lot of time, and it takes ten years to complete the canal. His plan to repair the canal is to consume Qin's national strength, weaken the Qin army, and fight for time for South Korea to recuperate. Zheng Guo's move is a real "yangmou", he is convinced that the Qin government and the people can never resist such a big temptation.

In the first year of Qin Wangzheng, the enthusiastic Qin Wang Yingzheng adopted Zheng Guo's suggestion, and the large-scale irrigation canal built by Zheng Guo presided over the construction of the large irrigation canal. Jingshui rushed out of the mountains in the northern part of Sili and entered the Guanzhong Plain when it reached Gukou. The Guanzhong Plain is hundreds of miles from east to west and tens of miles from north to south. The topography of the plain is slightly higher in the northwest and lower in the southeast.

Zheng Guoqu made full use of this favorable terrain and began to build trunk canals at Gukou in the northeast of Liquan County. The trunk canals stretched eastward along the foot of the mountain in the north, and the trunk canals were naturally distributed in the highest area of ​​the irrigation area. This not only maximizes the control of the irrigation area, but also forms With all artesian irrigation systems, more than 40,000 hectares can be irrigated, and the harvest is one acre (one hundred kilograms today). Thus Guanzhong Qianli became a fertile field, and the Qin State had no more fierce years, and the Qin State became prosperous and powerful, and eventually annexed the princes, the barbarians were in trouble, and the world was ruled.

Since the Zhengguo Canal was excavated, the head of the main canal has gradually been filled up due to sedimentation, and water cannot enter the canal. Over the past dynasties, the river inlet has been constantly changed in the Gukou area, but the main canal channel below the Gukou has remained unchanged. Once the Jingshui water volume is insufficient, the silt carried by the flowing water will silt up, eventually blocking the river course and making Zhengguo Canal useless. This is what Lu Bu worries most.

Along the way, in the Eight Treasures Yile Che, Gong Cao Zhuan Lumo spread out the latest map with his thick palm, explaining Zheng Guoqu for Lu Bu. "Master, Zheng Guoqu is roughly divided into four sections. From west to east, the section from Tanikou to Hukou is Baiqu, and the section from Hukou through Huangbaicheng to Wannian is Zheng Guoqu. Several lines near Huangbaicheng The canal is the six auxiliary canal, and the canal that intersects with the Wei River in the east of Wannian is the Dayu Canal. These four large canals irrigate the 40,000 tilts from Gukou through Huangbaicheng to Wannian, making Guanzhong eight hundred miles into a fertile field. Every mu can harvest one minute of grain, and one minute is six stones and four buckets. You must know that the yield of Shangtian in Jizhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou, and Qingzhou is less than one stone and five buckets per acre. It is because of Zheng Guoqu that Qin is strong.

After explaining the significance of Zheng Guoqu, Lu Mo began to speak about the current problems. "If Zheng Guoqu had a problem, it would mean that Sili and Liangzhou's grain output would be greatly reduced, and the millions of people in Sili and Liangzhou had become the biggest burden. Even if the grain output of Bingzhou increased significantly, Can not offset the huge consumption of Si Li and Liangzhou. This year is one dragon to control the water, most of the world is in severe drought, and the state’s grain output is already burnt with high incense, which is 80% of last year’s. So why????? ?"

"Therefore, Zheng Guoqu must not have any problems!" Lu Bu finally understood, he nodded solemnly, and said categorically. "Lu Mo, you are an old man who has been with me for more than ten years. Just say anything straightforward! Don't hesitate like this! My Lü Bu is still the same as before. Whatever you say is counted! Please speak up!"

Lu Mo is an old subordinate who has followed Lu Bu for more than ten years. His temperament is clear in Lu Bu's heart. He will not frown even if he is embarrassed. His behavior today is very abnormal, and there must be some unspeakable concealment in it, which led to the appearance of today. Thinking of this, Lu Bu immediately understood, he secretly made up his mind in his heart, and he must figure it out clearly.

"My lord, all the cities in Sili, Liangzhou, and Bingzhou have been repaired, roads have been widened, water conservancy projects, ditches and channels have been dredged. Free warehouses have also been established in various places. As long as this year’s harvest has last year’s At 60%, we will be able to survive this year of drought." Lu Mo didn't say directly, he still said nonsense in a roundabout way.

Lu Bu sat there quietly listening to Lu Mo's nonsense. He knew that Lu Mo would definitely tell the ultimate problem. Because there is no other way. Sure enough, after going round and round, Lu Mo finally got into the subject.

"My lord, the problem lies in the section of the Bai Canal. Starting from Gukou, due to sedimentation, the head of the main canal gradually fills up, and water cannot enter the canal. Over the past dynasties, the water inlet in Gukou has been constantly changing. Therefore, the Bai Canal has too white. Among the four canals, the western part of the Taibai Canal is the most important because the other three canals are separated from the Taibai Canal. Once the Taibai Canal is blocked, the other three canals will be lost. This will affect the entire Zheng Guoqu."

"However, the Taibai Canal nowadays has a serious blockage of the river. The aristocratic families built dams and built pavilions on the canal, and there is one every three to five miles. If things go on like this, the river is seriously blocked and cannot be dredged. This seriously affected the water volume of the Taibai Canal and even the Zhengguo Canal. What is even more hateful is that the aristocratic families set up more than ten small dams on the four canals to block the river to take water and irrigate their own fertile fields, ignoring the thousands of miles of fertile fields near the Zhengguo Canal. If this matter is not resolved, Zheng Guoqu is in danger, Guanzhong's thousands of miles of fertile fields are in danger! Zuo Fengyi's local officials have been there many times, and they have all been scolded by those aristocratic families."

"Oh? There is still this matter? I said Lu Mo, you must have prepared that list, so show it to me." Lü Bu finally understood, it turned out that the problem was wrong. it's here! Now that the key point has been found, there is a way to solve the problem, which is to use a knife in one hand and money in the other. "That piece of land was privately occupied by them, right?" Lu Bu seemed to suddenly remember something and asked calmly. "I have personally verified that this is the official land they privately occupied. There is no land deed. The land deeds are all in Zuo Fengyi's official office." Lu Mo said categorically.

It turns out that there is no land deed. It seems that this time I won't need money, just use a knife. Lü Bu let out a sigh of relief, and he called Dian Wei over. "Old Code, you send an eagle letter?????? No! You go to Zuo Fengyi personally, and send people to the county offices of Taniguchi, Huangbaicheng, and Wannian. This will involve the Taibai Fourth Canal. The title deeds and related officials brought me to Taniguchi! Tell them that if one page is missing, the related people will be killed!" "No!" Dian Wei promised to go.

At this moment, Lu Mo’s list was also handed over. Lu Bu glanced at it. The three in front of him were all old acquaintances. The first was Yan Kuan, the second was Kang Manti, and the third was the former wife. Wei Zhaoqian! There are more than 30 people underneath, all of them are family members who are very famous in the capital city of Luoyang. Everyone is an extremely difficult character. No wonder Lu Mo is afraid of his head.

Seeing this, Lu Bu's face was already full of smiles. This is his characteristic, and it is always like this when he is angry. Yan Kuan is his brother-in-law. Kang Houye is directing the war in the Western Regions. Zhao Qian is the leader of the Guanxi clans. The 30-odd people below dared to resist their orders and dared to scold the officials. They must be looking at these three. The head of the individual is looking forward to it.

"Let's leave and rush to Taniguchi County immediately. I am waiting for you, I want to repair a book to Lord Kang Hou!"
