Killing system of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 154

Wang Shouren went to Ge Hong with Zhang Yi's warrant. After reading it, Ge Hong felt a little embarrassed, "General Zhendong is not a mortal, but how to compile this scripture? If it is too much, it will be flattering, if it is not enough, it will be useless. Do you have any advice?" Method?"

Wang Shouren knew that Ge Laodao was complaining about himself, so he said to him: "This is about the stability of the mountains, flattery is irrelevant."

Ge Hong took a deep look at him, and then said: "Your Excellency is also extraordinary!"

"Thank you for the compliment!"

Compilation of Daoist scriptures is neither the work of one day nor the work of one person.Ge Hong has to write a Taoist scripture by himself, and it is indeed a bit stretched.So he invited the relatively famous Daoshi Lundao.

Lujiang Zuoci, according to legend, practiced Taoism in Mount Emei, and was good at the art of the house.Zuo Ci is actually the ancestor of Ge Hong, the founder of the Jindan School, and later preached to Ge Xuan (Ge Hong's grandfather), Ge Xuan preached to Zheng Yin, Zheng Yin preached to Ge Hong, and finally "Baopu Zi" came out.

Pingyuan Liu Dun was good at arithmetic. After Sun Quan surrendered, he came to Shouchun and was quite famous in Shouchun.

Liu Dun regarded Zhang Yi as an extraordinary person and told Ge Hong all kinds of calculations.Zuo Ci did not comment on the compilation of sutras and creation of gods, but he was very friendly to Ge Hong and passed down three volumes of his "Tai Qing Dan Jing", one volume each of "Jiuding Dan Jing" and "Jin Ye Dan Jing".

Zhang Yi gathered all the ministers and said, "Now I am based in Huainan, and all the waterways should be repaired. In the past, Sun Yi and Sun Jing went to sea to escape, and later Chen Deng used the sea to withdraw his troops. It can be seen that the sea navy should be of great use. I have heard about Liaodong. Gongsun Du once crossed the sea to attack Qingzhou, and the navy at sea should be of great use! I decided to divide the navy into two, with Poyang Lake as the governor of the navy and Jiangdong as the governor of the navy. I don’t know who can be the commander of the navy? Who? Can you be the captain of the navy?"

Liu Muzhi said: "I heard about the Poyang water army, Li Bao is good at commanding troops and planning, Zhang Shun is good at fighting in water, we can use Li Bao as the supervisor and Zhang Shun as the assistant."

Liu Ye said: "This statement is wrong! Zhang Shun's military rank is higher than Li Bao's, how can Zhang Shun be his assistant?"

Liu Muzhi retorted: "Military rank does not reflect talent. Zhang Shun has no talent in commanding troops. Let him supervise the navy, which will definitely lead to disaster!"

Liu Ye also retorted: "This has been the case since ancient times in the military. It is unheard of for a low-ranking officer to lead a high-ranking officer!"

"Okay!" Zhang Yi interrupted the quarrel between the two. In fact, his two counselors had certain selfishness. The reason why Liu Muzhi recommended Li Bao was just to get Li Bao to help him.The reason why Liu Ye wanted to keep Zhang Shun was because Zhang Shun and him were veterans.

Seeing that Zhang Yi was in trouble, Zhu Zhi stood up and said, "My lord, it's better to divide the navy army into two, and Zhang Shun and Li Bao each supervise one."

When Zhang Yi heard this, he felt that this method was also good.He then said: "In this case, let Zhang Shun be the left governor of the navy and command two thousand sailors stationed at Ruxukou; Li Bao be the right commander of the navy and command two thousand sailors stationed at Chaisangkou. The naval commander is Gan Ning, Li Jun, and Pan Zhang are assistants. Jun Li, you are familiar with Wu County, do you know where a harbor can be built?"

Zhu Zhi said: "There are many places where we can build ports in Wu County. We only need to let Meng Yu (Meng Kang) go to Wu County to find a shipbuilding place. Sea ships are not like river ships. The sea is too windy and waves, so we need to build bigger ones. , in order to ensure stability.”

Zhang Yi thought for a while, then said: "In three days, I will go to Juchao."

On the way to Juchao, Zhang Yi saw a bountiful harvest.Although Zhang Yi was mentally prepared before, after all, the system had already told him, and many people also said that this year's harvest will be bumper.But it was the first time for him to look at the wheat, rice, and sorghum all over the ground with a tourist attitude, which looked very modern—the appearance of modern production reduction!

Agricultural production at this time was still too backward, but there was nothing we could do about it. Without high-yielding seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, and agricultural machinery and water pumps, it would be difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice!Without these things, even if you want to be productive, you won’t be able to be productive.

This is why the people rejoice and think it is auspicious when there is a bumper harvest.If you encounter a calamity year, you will definitely sell your sons and daughters, and you will not be able to survive!Many people say that this is caused by aristocratic families, tyrants, and landlords. There are some reasons for this, but it is definitely not the whole reason.To be fair, the real Changjiu family will never force people to death. They are very good to the people in their hometown. For example, the warlords in the Republic of China period can be said to burn, kill and loot in other places, but when they return to their hometown, they will build bridges. paved the way.

This is why in many villages there are big families with appeal. Just bullying the villagers will definitely not be supported by everyone. Only by maintaining benevolence and strength can it be done.

Zhang Yi also wanted to put an end to this phenomenon, but with his current strength, he couldn't do it at all.As long as these people don't do too much, Zhang Yi will let it go.

A few days later, when Zhang Yi arrived in Juchao, he met Meng Kang and asked Meng Kang to take him to visit the shipyard to see their shipbuilding technology.

After watching for an hour, Zhang Yi frowned and asked, "Are all the ships you build in this square? Are sea ships also built in this way?"

Meng Kang said: "The bigger the ship, the heavier it can be."

"If it's a cargo ship, that's the reason. But warships should focus on the speed of the ship! If there is a sharp point in front, or adding a sharp bottom, will the speed be faster?" Zhang Yi said intentionally.

Meng Kang said: "This will indeed be faster, but the boat will not be stable!"

"Have you tried it yet?" Zhang Yi asked.

"I've tried it!" Meng Kang said: "We did some experiments when we were building warships. A boat with a sharp bottom needs to have a long bottom. If it's too short, it can sway from side to side. If it's too long, it's easy to touch the bottom of the reef."

Zhang Yi shook his head and said: "River boats use flat bottoms, but sea boats don't! The bottom of the sea is lower than that of rivers, so you can use a sharp bottom. The bottom of the boat doesn't need to be too long, you can use some stones to press the boat, so that the boat can stand upright. Steady."

Meng Kang's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he immediately said to Zhang Yi: "My lord, take me with you, I'll go and verify it!"

Zhang Yi said with a smile: "Let's go together!"

In the depths of the dock, there are several small boats parked in a pool, all kinds of boats.Meng Kang called a boat builder, brought some stones, and put stones on the bottom of these small boats.Those ships that were not stable at first became stable immediately.

Meng Kang was amazed at the side, and kept muttering in his mouth: "It's amazing! Why is this?"

Zhang Yi said with a smile: "There is a record in "Xunzi" that Confucius paid homage to the wine vessel in Lu Huangong's temple and kept the wine in it without pouring it. This is the reason."

Meng Kang said with emotion: "I have learned a lot today! With this method, a pointed-bottomed boat can be built."

Zhang Yi said: "The sea is very windy and the waves are very strong. It is very difficult to fight against the power of the sky with manpower. We must find a way to use the power of the sky. Think of rolling a car with wind power, you can use the power of the wind."

Meng Kang said: "You can set up a sail and sail with the wind! But what about against the wind?"
