Governor please stay

Chapter 287 Gou can control the invasion of the mausoleum, how can you kill more

To the south of Shouyang City, only tens of miles away, there is an extra-large pond named "Shaopi", which covers an area of ​​hundreds of miles.

Shaopi dug pits at the lowest point of the surrounding area to introduce a lot of running water as the source, part of which is the mountain stream water of the Dabie Mountain water system, which is called "Shanyuan River", and the other part is introduced into the Pihe River system, called "Piyuan River".

Because the overall presents a "reverse" pattern of high in the south and low in the north (China's terrain has always been low in the south and high in the north), so river embankments are built on the north, east, and west sides, but because of the frequent wars between the Southern and Northern Dynasties, this place has been in disrepair for a long time.

After all, there are two necessary conditions for irrigation projects to be maintained all the time:
The first is that a certain country needs to be able to control this place for a long time, lest the fat fall into the hands of the enemy.The second is that the country has the financial resources and enterprising spirit, so it will not just let things go bad and enjoy all the money.

Obviously, during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Shouyang, which was at the junction of the North and the South, changed hands several times, but it was a strategic location and frontline battlefield that both sides desperately fought for.Neither the Northern Wei Dynasty nor the Song, Qi, and Liang Dynasties in the Southern Dynasties had any intention of repairing Shaopi.

To put it simply, it is subjectively bad.

After several times of tossing, the area occupied here has been reduced by half compared to when Sun Shuao first built it.The reduced part has been surrounded by lakes for hundreds of years and has become one of the main grain-producing areas in Shouyang.

Not long after the Spring Festival, Liu Yishou took a few of his men to drive around Shaopi for inspection.This is the time when migratory birds return to the north. Red-crowned cranes can be seen fishing everywhere on the misty waters of Shaopi. They will fly to Shandong after they roost here for a while.

On the bank of the river, Liu Yishou pointed to the water in the distance and said with emotion to the people around him: "At that time, the Chu State had to move its capital to Shouyang, and the country fell into decline. The king of Chu Zhuang ordered Sun Shuao to repair Shaopi for Ling Yin, and the fertile fields have spread thousands of miles.

King Zhuang of Chu made great use of Sun Shuao and achieved a lot of dominance.The ancients were so heroic and wise, they should be our role models. "

A man should be like this, this can be said by successful people.

I will replace it, it's best not to say this, it comes with a curse.

Liu Yishou's expression was very reserved.

"The lord occupies Shouyang and marries the princess of Liang. He has enough soldiers and food, and the tiger occupies Shouyang to look down on the world. Once he goes forward, the north can attack Xingyang and try to seize Luoyang, and the south can take all the land in the north of the river to deter Jiankang. Shiqin Wang Qingjun side.

Naturally, such a treasured place of geomantic omen must be well managed. "

Chen Yuankang said calmly, with the word "rebellion" almost written on his forehead. In fact, the people under Liu Yishou's command may have different positions, but they are surprisingly consistent in their views on the matter of rebellion.

No one wanted Liu Yishou to work for any emperor, because this kind of thing was extremely unfavorable to them.When Liu Yishou became the emperor, their interests could be maximized, and their lives would be prosperous.

Hu Luxian, who was serving as a personal guard next to Liu Yishou, glanced at Chen Yuankang quietly. This man was obviously drinking too much, and Hu Luxian secretly thought that he seemed to be able to beat ten such weak chickens by himself.

But what the other party said just now coincided surprisingly with what his father Hu Lujin said. I have to say that his vision is very vicious.

Before kicking himself out of the house, Hu Lujin also analyzed the current situation in the world, and believed that Er Zhurong was cruel and planless, and his defeat would only happen sooner or later.

However, Guanzhong is dilapidated, with years of drought, the people are in dire straits, and there are many Hu tribes harming one side. There are no big wars, but small wars every day.Even if you get it, you will have to live a hard life for decades.If it is not desperate, going to Guanzhong is the next strategy.

Hu Lujin also said that Gao Huan joined forces with Hebei aristocratic families to launch an incident in Yecheng, and it is very likely to pacify Hebei and Shandong, and has already established a solid foundation.If Er Zhurong is defeated, you might as well seek refuge with Gao Huan.

He also said that Liu Yishou, who was hiding in Huainan, suddenly emerged, with a lot of talents under his command, and he seemed to be a good candidate.

Hu Lujin thought that it was enough for him and his eldest son Hu Luguang to follow Gao Huan. As for the "excess" son Hu Luxian, it seemed useless to follow him. Light is purely a decoration, and its status is also embarrassing.

It's better to go to Liu Yishou to try his luck.

If Liu Yishou succeeds, he wins directly, and if he fails, it doesn't hurt too much. As long as Hu Luxian doesn't die, isn't there still a father and a big brother who can turn to him?

Thinking of this, Hu Luxian cupped his hands and said to Liu Yishou: "I am good at archery. Since my lord has a good mood today, why don't I perform archery and shoot a bird to cheer for my lord!"

New here is to show that Hu Luxian, who has been beaten continuously since childhood, has a high EQ and is good at looking at people.

Liu Yishou glanced thoughtfully at the "Condor Shooting Boy" with a big bow on his back, waved his hands and said:
"When drawing a bow, be strong; when using an arrow, be long;

When shooting a man, shoot a horse first, and when capturing a thief, first capture the king. "

After he read the four sentences, Chen Yuankang's eyes lit up, and he quickly took charcoal to write down.Wang Wei was recently forced by Liu Yishou to take a concubine because he was so good at taking concubines to make a man at home. Chen Yuankang took his place by Liu Yishou's side, feeling that the trip was worthwhile.

Although Hu Luxian is not well-educated and can only read and write, he also knows that Liu Yishou's "capturing the thief and capturing the king" is an undeniable truth.

"There are four more sentences. Killing is also limited, and all countries have their own borders; if you can control the invasion of the mausoleum, how can you kill more.

We are here to see how the situation in Shaopi is, not to hunt. "

The flattery was slapped on the horse's leg, Hu Luxian looked embarrassed and backed away.Liu Yishou patted him on the shoulder and said: "Archery needs to be practiced diligently, there will be times when you can perform well, but not now, let alone shooting birds.

Treasure swords are not for chopping firewood! "

Liu Yishou turned his head to look at Yang Xiuzhi on the other side, he was very strange, this guy usually talks the most, and his sentences are classic, he can be called the "king of flattery" among his subordinates.It's impossible to say that Hu Luxian, a newcomer, knows how to flatter, but he doesn't say a word.

It's easy to understand why Chen Yuankang doesn't flatter, because he no longer needs to flatter to seek a higher position beside Liu Yishou, but like Hu Luxian and Yang Xiuzhi, it is impossible for them to have no "motivation for improvement".

With the same ability, people who can flatter must climb higher and faster.

"Yang Xiuzhi, what do you think, I see you have been silent."

Liu Yishou asked curiously.

"My lord, I'm just cursing in my heart. Whether it's Liang Guo in the south, or Song and Qi before, they are all ungrateful people."

Yang Xiuzhi sighed with emotion, as expected, his words were not astonishing and endless.

As he spoke, he shook his head regretfully, and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering what kind of medicine he was selling in this gourd.

“How come you see?”

Liu Yishou asked in bewilderment.

Yang Xiuzhi explained: "Sun Shu'ao built Shaopi, which has benefited the surrounding area of ​​Shouyang for hundreds of years, and provided countless grains and fodder. I don't know if there was a ancestral hall built before, but now we look around and don't seem to see it.

The Song, Qi, and Liang An enjoyed the convenience of water conservancy brought by Shaopi for more than a hundred years, but no one drank water and thought of the source, and built a ancestral hall for Sun Shuao.Am I saying that these people are ungrateful people? "

It seems that it is not too much.

Everyone couldn't help but nod their heads. It has to be said that Yang Xiuzhi's starting point is quite flamboyant, and he should be very appetizing to Liu Yishou.

"The past can't be remonstrated. It's meaningless to talk about those things in the past."

Liu Yishou waved his hand, he didn't want to dwell on this topic, he didn't need to belittle his predecessors to increase his prestige.

"My lord, I was just thinking about it just now. Those who have gone can't be warned, but those who come can still be pursued. It's not too late to make up for it. It's their fault that the former people didn't know how to drink water and think about the source, but we can't be as ungrateful as them.

If the lord ordered the restoration of Shaopi, and then built Sun Shuao's ancestral hall on the high ground in the south, so that future generations can remember Sun Shuao and pass it down from generation to generation.Just add the lord at the end of the builder's name. "

After going around in circles for a long time, Yang Xiuzhi finally made a big move and revealed his ultimate goal.

Spend less money, do more things, have a great influence, and be famous forever!

Hu Luxian's eyeballs are about to pop out!Not afraid of ignorance, but afraid of comparing goods, this round he lost to grandma's house!
In the past, when he was beaten, he would roll on the ground even if it didn't hurt.I didn't expect that in front of this person in front of me, it was not enough to look at!

Acts like shooting the eagles to show off their skills were completely crushed by Yang Xiuzhi's high-end flattery!Make yourself look like a clown!
It was only then that Hu Luxian deeply understood what his father Hu Lujin meant by "plenty of talents".Even flattering has high-end bureaus, it seems that the small life is not so easy to mess with!
Sure enough, this world is so cruel, there is no paradise where you can lie down and eat.

"Repair Sun Shu'ao's ancestral hall, you can do it. But, remember not to write my name, this Shaobei is not built by me."

Liu Yishou smiled and said to Yang Xiuzhi.

Like the Nine Thousand Years Jiansheng Temple or something, the most annoying!
Yang Xiu was taken aback, his flattery should have no flaws, why is his lord's expression a bit subtle?Before he had time to think about it, he cupped his hands in thanks and said, "This subordinate must have done a good job."

Seeing that a flatterer like Yang Xiuzhi is deflated, Hu Luxian has a deeper understanding of Liu Yishou, and even a little more fear.

This person looks very young and quiet, but he seems to be... very powerful, it is the kind of inner strength, and he will not be led by the nose at will by his subordinates.

"Changyou (named by Chen Yuankang), let me tell you to memorize it."

"My lord, please speak."

Chen Yuankang also put away his joking look, and spoke solemnly.

"The first one is to relocate the other Huainan villagers who came with us last time to the surrounding area of ​​Shaopi. As for the number, it should be about the same as the current local household registration number. Competition is the motivation, and they are all locals in Shouyang. People, inevitably have the mind of a local snake, and make things difficult for us."

Liu Yishou said casually.

Chen Yuankang himself was ready to talk about this little routine of driving tigers and wolves away, but Liu Yishou had already thought about it.He cupped his hands and said, "It's natural, what the lord said is absolutely true."

"Secondly, send someone to ask in the countryside what they think about the use of Shaopi irrigation, and collect their opinions. You have nothing to write down an order. The area irrigated by Shaopi is very large. If there is no order No amount of water is enough.

There is no rule without rules, and when the ordinance is written, send people to the countryside to preach, and then carve the ordinance on a huge stone in front of Sun Shuao's ancestral hall!This is the first rule since we took over Shouyang. "

Yang Xiuzhi lit a stove, and Chen Yuankang was also a little surprised that Liu Yishou was able to set up a pot and cook noodles by himself.From the level of government affairs, Liu Yishou is also very good at it!
People who come to worship Sun Shuao are worshiping the order on the stone tablet in front of the gate.Obeying the rules on the stone tablet means obeying the rules established by Liu Yishou in Shouyang.

Obeying the rules is tantamount to effectively ruling a place.

Taking Shaopi as the entry point to integrate Shouyang's resources, even Chen Yuankang is also an arrogant person, and he has to admire Liu Yishou's vision.

What he didn't know was that the area around Shouyang provided [-]% of the country's grain production in later generations. It didn't seem like much, but if the grain production bases in the three eastern provinces were removed, this ratio would rise sharply!

No food is unstable, and only by cutting in from the most basic place can we ensure a foothold in Shouyang.

"The third thing is to set up a post of Shaobei official, responsible for organizing the repair of Shaopi every year. Remember the following. From the local household registration, one out of five people will be drawn into the army. This army will not Need to fight, only responsible for repairing Shaobei on weekdays. Farming during busy seasons, organizing military training during slack seasons.

When floods come, fight floods, when droughts come, fight droughts, and then build dikes and dams to consolidate Shaobei. "

This... seems to be for some other purpose!
There were no idiots present, and when they heard the words "weave and train into an army", the hairs stood on end.This kind of move of hiding soldiers among the people has the biggest advantage, that is, it gets rid of the restriction of the private army of the big family!

Moreover, there is an explanation to Xiao Yan, at least face-saving.

I didn't form a new army, I just organized the villagers to fight floods and droughts. After all, there is such a big pond in the south of Shouyang, right?
"Okay my lord, I have written it down."

"Well, let's go around again and spend the night with the villagers tonight, and we will return to Shouyang tomorrow."

Liu Yishou waved his hand, Shaopi was much bigger than he imagined, almost as big as a small county.No wonder that after Shouyang was established as the capital of Chu State, it relied on the food and grass obtained from Shaopi irrigation to go north to fight for hegemony!

……

In a small courtyard in Zhuyi City, Yin County, Nanji, Chen Qingzhi was sitting in front of a desk in his study. Several lieutenants under his command sat upright like kindergarten children, not daring to speak, not even venting their breath.

"Crazy ministers and thieves!"

Chen Qingzhi slapped a letter on the desk with resentment, already extremely angry.

"Captain, the general knows that you are very angry... But, Xiao Zhengde is a bastard, the emperor will not do anything to him. You are angry, what can you do?"

Ma Fonian, who has a horse face, is very entangled, and his coach is a dead-headed, royalist.Even the emperor himself doesn't take Xiao Zhengde seriously, is it interesting for you to be so excited?

The letter in front of Chen Qingzhi was sent by Liu Yishou, which said that Xiao Zhengde had invited him to join Jiankang "King Qin", and attached a copy of Xiao Zhengde's letter.

Whether Chen Qingzhi was really angry, Ma Fonian didn't know.But he himself didn't feel anything about it, let alone leading troops into Jiankang "King Qin".

Xiao Yan has already doted on the clan to such an extent that he has no sense of right and wrong.Now that Liu Yishou has copied a letter, Xiao Zhengde can say that Liu Yishou is slandering him, what can he do?
"Captain, I'm afraid this matter will end up in the end. Why Liu Yishou sent this letter deserves some deliberation."

After Ma Fonian finished speaking, he regarded himself as dumb and waited for Chen Qingzhi to reply.

"Liu Yishou wants to seize Nanjiyin County! He wants Pengcheng!"

Chen Qingzhi frowned slightly and said.

With the white robe army around, Liu Yishou couldn't touch the enclave of Pengcheng. The white robe army left, and Nanjiyin County was empty of troops. The other party must be able to get his wish.

Whether to advance or retreat, Chen Qingzhi also hesitated.
