Chapter 851 A miracle that can only be imagined with the help of gods, gods, demons and ghosts! The foundation of the county!
Zhao Cheng forced himself to calm down and asked instead of answering: "May I ask your Majesty, do you need zàn mountains, yīn valleys on this road?"
What if zàn mountains and valleys are used? The method of road construction is to build a road as straight as possible, just like the original Qin Straight Road in history. When it encounters mountains, it opens mountains and fills valleys. It spares no effort to build a road as straight as possible and shorten the distance to the maximum extent.
But when he thought of the people's efforts required to open mountains and fill valleys all the way from Xianyang City to Helu City, Ying Zheng waved his hand without hesitation: "Just build according to the terrain."
The Brain of Zhao Cheng Zhong calculated carefully and said while calculating: "The nearest road from Xianyang City to Helu City is still more than 3,500 miles away."
"But today, the route from Xianyang City to Helu City is the territory of our Great Qin. Our Great Qin does not need to follow the old road. I make a rough estimate and believe that the total distance can be reduced to about 2,800 miles."
"Today's Chang'an With the strength of five hundred men, you can pave a concrete road of thirty feet in one day. After it is paved, it will take several people to maintain it for half a month."
"If you use Chang'an Jun's plan to pave the road today. To complete the 2,800-mile journey, we need to mobilize 340,000 manpower!”
“Including the manpower to level hills and valleys and build bridges to avoid water...”
A large amount of data has been collected! Zhao Cheng's brain processed quickly and finally came up with a number that surprised Zhao Cheng: "Fifty thousand people!"
"Without considering the materials, we can build this road with only 500,000 manpower!"
Ying Chengxuan added: "I will calculate some redundancy and follow the three thousand miles. Calculate the cement required to build this road."
"Based on the current productivity of cement production in Lantian Workshop, 600,000 manpower will be mobilized."
"But if the eldest brother is really serious. For cement road construction, I can spend some time improving the cement furnace and refining the production process, and then choose a location with suitable water potential for large-scale water grinding. The manpower used should be about 300,000."
"I will refine it later. With the skill of steel, I am confident that the manpower required will be reduced to about 150,000!”
"As for the manpower required for transportation, it needs to be determined based on the distance between the cement workshop and the road section to be built."
"The Lantian County workshop is close to the Bahe River, and you can enter the Weishui River by going upstream to Chang'an Township. The river flows smoothly into Guanzhong. As long as the road is not far away from the river, it will not require too much manpower."
Zhao Cheng understood, and then even he said in disbelief: " If so, I am confident that I will use 1.2 million manpower to build this road!”
“And if we use the current method of building Chidao in Da Qin to build this road, I will need to mobilize at least 1,000 manpower! Three million! ”
Compared to the speed of road construction and manpower used in Da Qin today.
The speed and manpower used to build cement roads is simply a miracle!
A miracle that can only be imagined with the help of gods, gods, demons and ghosts!
A miracle that Zhao Cheng couldn’t completely believe even if the facts were placed in front of him!
Ying Zheng's eyes were particularly bright, and his breathing was a little rapid and he whispered softly: "One and two million people?"
"Only one and two million people?!"< br>
The so-called 1.2 million manpower only refers to 1.2 million for one month.
If instead of using corvees and instead using the power of convicts to build this road year-round, Da Qin would only need to use 100,000 corvees to complete the road in one year!
For Da Qin, is this a big deal?
Wei Liao said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, if the road from Xianyang City to Helu City could be as smooth as the road from Lantian Workshop to Lantian Ferry, and there would be post stations along the way like a Chi Road. Ting, our elite troops from the Qin Dynasty can reach Helu City in just over sixty days!"
Ying Chengyu shook his head and said, "What the captain said is too conservative."
"This cement road not only makes it easier for the soldiers to walk, but also makes it easier for the baggage to travel."
"The speed of the strong men pushing the Changan car on the cement road and the distance it can travel every day are both It is not comparable to Chidao."
"I believe that when the cement road runs through Xianyang City and Helu City, ordinary generals and ordinary soldiers will be able to reach Helu City in about forty-five days."
“If the general leads the elite troops to attack, we can attack Helu City within forty days!”
Ying Zheng’s breathing became more rapid, and he asked in a fiery voice: “Brother Wang, is it true? ?”
Ying Cheng said solemnly: "It's true!"
"I know what the eldest brother is worried about."
"If this cement road is successful, if there is really chaos in Helu City, forty My brother will arrive at Helu City within a few days!"
Wei Liao also nodded slowly and said, "What Chang'an Lord said makes sense."
"Chang'an Lord has more experience in long-distance marches. The considerations are indeed more appropriate than mine!”
When it comes to long-distance marches, no one in the world today is qualified to compare with Ying Chengyu.
When it comes to understanding cement roads, no one in the world today is qualified to compare with Ying Chengyu.
The data given by Ying Chengxuan certainly surprised Wei Liao, but after thinking about it carefully, Wei Liao realized that what Ying Chengxuan said was not impossible to achieve!
Ying Zheng turned to look at Lu Buwei, smiled and asked: "With the strength of our great Qin, is it difficult to conquer 1.2 million people?"
After Lu Buwei counted his breaths silently, he whispered Sighing: "This is really easy."
Ying Zheng's smile became more obvious: "In the forty-five days, can local chaos be uncontrollable?"
Lu Buwei shook his head slightly and said: "Even if the local county magistrate is incompetent, as long as the local If the county magistrate does not take the initiative to surrender to the thieves, the rebel army can only attack a dozen county towns at most, and will not be able to fight against the elites of our Great Qin Dynasty."
"And if there is a rebellion in the Qin Dynasty, our Great Qin Dynasty should be warned in advance and send troops early. , will not give the rebels that much time."
Ying Zheng's smile could not be concealed at all: "If the local rebels know that I, Lord Chang'an of Great Qin, can lead my elite troops to kill them within forty days."
"Thieves, do you dare to cause trouble?!" Lu Buwei looked at Ying Chengyu, his eyes particularly complex: "There will still be thieves who dare to make trouble, but there will definitely not be many."
"If the Lord of Chang'an is willing to obey the king's order in the future, he will not go out without an order."
"The king can even order the Lord of Chang'an to lead his own soldiers to sit in Daliang City and attack within twenty days. The whole of Guandong! "
"In this way, there will be very few thieves who dare to cause trouble. "
If Yingzheng is stationed in Xianyang City and guards Guandong, Yingcheng is stationed in Daliang City and guards Guandong. If the land and the world continue to build concrete roads with Xianyang City and Daliang City as the center, brothers Ying Chengfan and Ying Zheng will be enough to suppress the entire Great Qin!
Here they had just raised the flag of a certain subjugated country and elected a descendant of a certain subjugated royal family as the anti-king. Over there, Ying Chengyu, who personally crushed the country, had already arrived with an army that had cut down the world.
Who dares to cause trouble? !
Anyone with any brains will understand that this move is not about reviving the motherland at all, but simply seeking death!
Lu Buwei was full of emotions, but Ying Chengyu pointed at himself, looked at Lu Buwei with round eyes and said: "Why have I never listened to the king's orders!"
"How can a prime minister be able to do that? Framed me!”
Unfortunately, no one paid attention to Ying Chengqiao.
Ying Zheng faced Lu Buwei directly and asked in a voice full of oppression: "Xiangbang, do you still insist on today's advice?"
Lü Buwei really didn't want to answer this time.
In Lu Buwei’s view, the enfeoffment system is definitely the best choice for Da Qin to control border areas!
But, how does Lu Buwei refute Ying Zheng?
The emergence of cement roads has made it possible for Ying Zheng to realize his idea of establishing a border town in Xianyang!
Ying Chengxuan's military strength and his fiefdom in Daliang City allow Ying Chengxuan to single-handedly control the entire Kanto region and help Yingzheng correct his shortcomings!
After more than ten breaths of silence, Lu Buwei finally sighed with regret, bowed his hands and said: "My minister, I take back today's advice."
None of the ministers knew what Lu Buwei had advised today. .
They just saw Ying Zheng's unabashed laughter: "Good! Good! Very good!"
"It is a great contribution to the Lord of Chang'an to be able to make the prime minister withdraw this advice!"
"The prime minister has no worries about this, and I have no worries about this!"
Unconsciously Taking the first two steps, Ying Zheng looked at the unsolidified cement road in front of him and the bright morning sun shining on the cement road, feeling filled with emotion.
I don’t know how long Lu Buwei, Wang Wan and other officials had been admonishing him for the disputes over enfeoffment and prefectures and counties.
Ying Zheng himself has been entangled in the disputes over enfeoffment and counties for several years.
Today, although Ying Chengyu did not remonstrate, he provided Ying Zheng with the key to solving this entanglement from another angle.
This place is not only the starting point of Changlan Avenue, but also the starting point for Yingzheng to govern the four directions with Xianyang and fully implement the county system!
Suddenly turning around, Ying Zheng shouted in a deep voice: "Order!"
As soon as Ying Zheng said a word, Ying Chengyu ignored Ying Zheng's arrogant mood and kicked the seal. Han kicked himself in front of Ying Zheng.
Zhang Han:! ! !
Zhang Han never expected that Ying Chengyu, whom he trusted, would suddenly kick him.
Staggering, Zhang Han almost knelt in front of Ying Zheng.
Looking back in panic, Zhang Han saw Ying Chengyu pointing his finger at him and saying with a serious face: "Brother, I recommend Doctor Zhang to build a cement road in Daqin!"
Zhang Han He said repeatedly: "I have lost my decency. Please forgive me, King Wanwang!"
"I also shoulder many important responsibilities such as building a blast furnace and supervising the papermaking workshop. I really can't..."
Ying Chengyu took two steps forward, patted Zhang Han on the shoulder, and said seriously: "I believe in you!"
"I have always thought that Dr. Zhang is quite capable in military strategy."
“The mobilization of hundreds of thousands of people to build cement roads this time is the best training for Dr. Zhang!”
“When Dr. Zhang succeeds, I will recommend Dr. Zhang as General!"
"I believe that Doctor Zhang will live up to my expectations, right?"
Looking down at Ying Chengyu, Zhang Han's eyes were a little dazed.
Chang'an Jun actually trusts me so much, values me so much, has high hopes for me, and even arranges training for me!
How lucky I am!
Bewilderedly, Zhang Han held up his hands and shouted: "I will live up to the expectations of Lord Chang'an!"
Ying Chengyu nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Ying Zhengdao expectantly. : "Brother, I recommend Doctor Zhang to take on the responsibility of building roads again!"
Seeing Ying Cheng's anxious and expectant look, Ying Zheng said funnyly: "Brother Nai has no intention of handing this job over to me."
"The task of building cement roads is certainly arduous, but calcining cement Only the king's brother can handle this skill!"
Ying Chengyu: Huh? ? ?
