Chapter 144: The upcoming war

After dipping the carving knife in some water, Liu Yi looked at the long wooden stick in front of him, but for a moment he didn't know how to start it. It took a long time before he let it down. He wanted to make a quyuan plow, but there was no prototype. He was in the city The grown-up children used to occasionally return to the village with their parents to visit relatives, and they often saw farm tools such as and rake. Plowing this kind of thing seemed to him to be another dimension.
I originally thought that it is not difficult to make improvements on the basis of the furrow plow, but now when I really want to do it, I find that I do not know what to do.
According to the purpose, the Quyuan plow should be more convenient and flexible on the basis of the straight plow. The function of the straight plow is actually good, but it is not convenient to operate, and it is too bulky. Pulled by animal power, and steering is difficult.
In this case, the Quyuan Plow, as a civilization that can run through the millennium after the straight plow, can still be used in modern times. It must be more flexible, able to operate flexibly, and rotate freely, and it is not the kind of too laborious, otherwise it is made. Why?
Liu Yi came up with several schemes, and it is indeed flexible to operate, but it is not suitable for promotion. The internal organs are too complicated and easy to wear. The most important thing is that the cost is higher than that of the straight plow, which is not in line with promotion. Requirements, so these days, Liu Yi is thinking about this issue.
The battle of the Red Cliff is already a matter of course. The next thing to consider is not war, but rest and recuperation. In the era of farming, food is also an important criterion for determining the upper limit of the population. The land of Jingxiang and Yizhou is not serious. The two states were originally grain-producing areas, but Liu Yi wanted to allow the population of these two places to explode, so that, according to today's farming standards, the upper limit is actually limited.
The most important prerequisite for the rise of industry is the promotion of agriculture. A large amount of surplus labor will be qualified to promote the development of industry. Otherwise, you will not be able to eat enough. What is the use of industrial development alone?
The Han Dynasty was not as backward as imagined. In the Western Han Dynasty, the people had already begun to understand the use of manure to promote crop production and increase grain production. Tools work hard.
Quyuan plows and planters now have prototypes. Based on this improvement, they cannot be too complicated, and the things can be used to make them. The efficiency is higher than that of the original direct-plow plows and columbine. Just fine.
Finally, after pulling a few grooves and assembling the components, Liu Yi set up an organization unconsciously, and finally threw the semi-finished product aside.
It ’s not that he ca n’t do it. What he wants is something that is practical and can be widely used. The operation ca n’t be too complicated. In this way, mechanics and complicated mechanics ca n’t be used on it. Like hoes, ordinary artisans and even the common people You can do it yourself. This is not the time to show your ability.
"What are Bo Yuan doing these days?" Liu Bei came to Liu Yi and looked curiously at the unassembled parts on the ground, wondering.
"A new kind of plow." Liu Yi did not conceal, and said his thoughts. "After this battle, if the uncle can win the four counties of Jingnan, it will be considered a foothold. The population of the four counties of Jingnan is thin and insufficient. I think the land of foundations, but these four counties, in Yi's view, have considerable potential, hoping to make a more convenient plow, so that the people can not be forced by the hunger and cold, and reproduce better, it is a pity ... "
Liu Bei glanced at the messy parts and semi-finished products on the ground, and said with relief that "Bo Yuan can hold the world with heart, and it is a good thing, but there is no need to rush to such things."
In the world of chaos, people's livelihood is very important, but at this time, Liu Bei is more concerned about military capabilities.
"Uncle does not understand, if this plow can succeed, it will be counted as if the population is down today, the people will no longer have to be confused by hunger and cold, they can feed more people." Liu Yi shook his head.
If you look at it on the map, Jiangdong or Shuhan later, in fact, the area is not much smaller than Cao Cao's site, but why is Cao Cao second in the world?
It is because the most densely populated counties and counties in the Han Dynasty were basically under the control of Cao Cao, not to mention that Yanzhou is not a big place, but the population is the largest. Throughout the history of China, political culture has basically radiated around the Central Plains. As the two sides of the Yellow River export south, the population distribution also follows this rule.
What Liu Yi thinks now is not how to defeat Cao Cao, but how to develop the population and use his own ability to develop this south. Although the population is not comparable, but in terms of resources, it is actually no better than Cao Cao. Poor, but no one is willing to spend effort to develop it.
Perhaps judging from the situation as it is today, Zhuge Liang ’s Longzhong is right, but from the perspective of the entire nation, Longzhong is not necessarily a good thing. It can only be said that the angle of standing is different, and what you see is also different.
The five turbulences were a thorn to Liu Yi. He did not want such things to happen, so after stabilizing, he first thought about how to develop people's livelihood rather than war.
But Liu Bei apparently did not consider this issue, or that there are not many people who will consider this issue today. After all, even if the world is falling apart, the Hu people outside the Serbia do not have much deterrent force for the Han people. He is not even considered a threat, so Liu Bei cannot be disappointed to see that Liu Yi is studying this thing, but he did not have much expectation. Now he hopes that Liu Yi can make a powerful war weapon to help him As for the siege of the city, as for the people's livelihood, this has been the case for thousands of years. It can't be said that it doesn't pay attention to it, but I don't think there will be much development.
Liu Yi thought about it, found a piece of paper, put it on the desk made by himself, and sketched it with a pen. He had already done it, but the organs were too complicated. He was prepared to step by step those complicated organs. Streamlined to the extent that ordinary craftsmen can also do.
"This is ... Cai Hou paper?" Liu Bei looked at Liu Yi's paper on the table with some curiosity and asked casually.
Caihou paper is not too popular. Although it is convenient, it is easy to be damaged. It is not as convenient as bamboo slips.
"Well, I have studied Cai Houzhi recently, and Yi has some ideas. If he can succeed, he can help the uncle to win the hearts of the world's cold men." Liu Yi nodded. In fact, since there is paper, there are already conditions for printing. No need to worry about the movable type printing, it is not necessary, but the extension printing is no problem, the technical difficulty is not high, but the requirements for ink are higher.
It ’s just how much impact it will make and whether he will be implicated. Liu Yi does n’t know. He plans to wait for this period of time. After he stabilizes, he will discuss with Zhuge Liang. This is an innovation that subverts the knowledge monopoly. Therefore, once the shot is taken, it must be quick and accurate, so timing is very important.
Liu Yi couldn't see this opportunity, so he wanted Zhuge Liang to take a look and try to eliminate the factors that were unfavorable to him.
"Oh?" Liu Beiwen's eyes lit up, and he was very interested. "Can Bo Yuan elaborate?"
"What's wrong with the uncle looking at these words?" Liu Yi flipped through the ruined things beside him for a long time, and turned over a few words to Liu Bei. This is his test product. Printed out.
Liu Bei turned to Liu Yi with a doubtful look, and looked down. The handwriting was neat, but it was only satisfactory. At least on the calligraphy, Liu Yi did not stand out.
"The Analects of Confucius?" Liu Bei raised his head and looked at Liu Yi doubtfully.
"Uncle looks down." Liu Yi nodded. "The content is not important."
"Oh." Liu Bei bowed his head and continued to read. The second page was still the Analects. Liu Bei glanced at Liu Yi, somewhat puzzled, and continued to turn back, still the Analects.
Frowning gradually, what does it mean to show yourself the Analects?
Content is not important? Liu Bei looked through it again, and he didn't see anything. It was no different except that the writing was getting fainter, and even every word seemed exactly the same. How could this be possible?
Liu Bei suddenly looked up and looked at Liu Yi. He was somewhat uncertain and said, "Bo Yuan, how are the words on these papers exactly the same?"
This is no longer a question of whether the handwriting is written by the same person, but in addition to the difference in ink color, the shape of the characters and the distance between the characters are almost the same. It is the most powerful calligrapher who writes the same thing. , There will always be nuances.
Liu Yi didn't answer, but after rummaging through a pile of semi-finished products for a moment, he found a black lacquered wooden board smeared with ink, found another piece of paper, and quickly smeared the board with a brush. Spread the paper on the board, then peel it off, and hand it to Liu Bei. "Uncle will look at this again ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Liu Bei took it, carefully compared it, exactly the same as the previous ones, this time, Liu Bei knew Liu Yi In what way was it made, hesitantly said, "What's the use? "
"Unclear." Liu Yi shook his head helplessly. "This matter, we still have to wait for Kong Ming to come back and discuss it. Although the topography is made now, if the topography is printed, the ink is easy to dry, and it can't be printed after a few pages. India, you have to find something more suitable to replace the ink. In addition to Kong Ming, the emperor must not mention it with anyone, it has a lot to do. "
Liu Bei didn't get around for a while, and nodded silently. Although he didn't figure it out, he seemed to understand a little. Seeing Liu Yi's unprecedented seriousness, he solemnly put those pages in his arms, facing Liu Yi and saying "Kong Ming Only then did the news come that before Jiazi Day, the 100 fast boats were sent to Chaisang. "
"It's ready, I can send it over at any time." Liu Yi heard the words, his eyes brightened, Jiazi Day, which was November 20, and now there were only ten days left. It seems that the battle of the Red Cliffs has come to an end. Then, to Liu Beidao, "That Kong Ming should also ask the uncle to be ready to chase Cao Jun?"
"Not bad." Liu Bei nodded.
"In my opinion, chasing Cao Cao's defeated army is certainly important, but the Jingxiang soldiers in the water village, the protagonist should also say as soon as possible, at least give them a meaning that we are willing to accept them. Once Cao Jun is defeated, these Jingxiang If the soldiers want to surrender, they will choose our army first! "Liu Yi smiled.
"Bo Yuan rest assured, Kong Ming said the same." Liu Bei smiled.
"The uncle remembers that it was the uncle, not the son Liu Qi, who took the Jingxiang naval forces." Liu Yi looked at Liu Bei seriously.
Liu Bei heard the words and nodded silently, he knew what it meant.
