Three Kingdoms: Who can’t help? I am Adokuang Fuhan Room

"Adou? Liu Bei was slightly surprised and asked with a smile:"What's the matter?""

"State affairs."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone couldn't help but be very interested.

The last time Liu Chan gave advice on state affairs, it was about where to make the capital. His

Royal Highness the Crown Prince's verbal quarrels with the ministers are still fresh in everyone's memory.

Not to mention the influence of setting the capital in Nanzheng The subsequent Battle of Xiangfan was of far-reaching significance.

Seeing that Liu Chan was once again admonishing state affairs, Liu Bei and everyone could not help but begin to look forward to it.

"Adou just said it, and his father listened attentively."Liu Bei said directly.

Zhuge Liang also came down from the jade steps and said with a smile:"Your Highness, you might as well go up and point out the country."

"okay. Liu Chan nodded in agreement,"I just want to borrow your map, sir.""

After that, Liu Chan took three steps and two steps at a time, and quickly came to the jade steps.

"Looking down from here, the scenery is indeed very different. Liu Chan first sighed with emotion.

"Haha~" Liu Bei laughed dumbly,"This position will be yours sooner or later."

"It would be better to do it later. Liu Chan said sincerely

"Okay, stop chatting and get down to business."Liu Bei looked pleased, and he naturally understood the meaning of his son's words.

Staying a little later means Liu Bei will live a few more years.

To be honest, Liu Bei is also sixty years old, and he may not know when the day will come.

"My son, I want to talk about logistics today. Liu Chan pointed out the topic, and then said:"On the importance of rivers and rivers in logistics!" Seeing this , everyone put away their relaxed attitude and began to listen carefully.

Liu Chan took the lead in pointing to the Chengdu area and said:"Sichuan is a country of abundant grain, and it is a God-given granary."

Then he pointed to Bashan and continued:"However, the road to Shu is more difficult than reaching the sky, which leads to extremely high food transportation costs."

Finally, Liu Chan pointed to Hanzhong and said:"The grain from Shuzhong cannot be transported to Hanzhong until March. During this period, there are countless losses and a lot of waste.""

Assume that the grain production in central Shu is 10%, and a large number of people are recruited to transport it along the Shu road. After arriving in Hanzhong, at most 70% of the grain will be left. Where did this 30% loss come from? Naturally, the people ate it on the road. They ate the grain while transporting it. , the more grain and grass are transported, the more civilians are needed, the more mouths to eat, and the more expenses are spent on the road.

But don’t think that losing 30 percent is enough. The civilians have to eat grain on the way back from Hanzhong to Shuzhong..

The common people are all common people in Shu. It is impossible to stay in Hanzhong, otherwise no one will farm in Shu. Therefore, after the grain arrives in Hanzhong, the common people still need to return to Hanzhong. They also have to eat and drink on the way back, and they cannot be allowed to drink. The northwest wind goes back.

As a result, there is another 30% on the way back.

Every time we go back, 60% of the food is consumed.

Logically speaking, it would be good to have 40% left, but the actual situation is simply impossible.

The worm eats the rat, Various birds attracted during transportation will continue to"attack" the grain transport team.

During the transportation, some farmers slipped and fell off the cliff, and some grain trucks fell off the cliff. Once there are too many people, any accident may happen.

This, at least Another 10% loss, now only 30% is left.

But 30% is still not the final figure.

The salary of court officials needs to be distributed by the court, which is another 10%.

As well as the daily consumption of the garrison in Hanzhong area, another 10% is removed.

In the end, only 10% of the food and grass saved for the Northern Expedition was left.

Only one-tenth of the food harvested in the autumn of a year was saved after being transported to Hanzhong.

Therefore, ancient wars required several years of food storage to be enough. start a war

"Therefore, I should change the mode of transportation and reduce the damage caused by transportation."

"Is the plan coming out?"Liu Bei immediately asked

"waterway!"

Everyone suddenly realized, no wonder Liu Chan wanted to talk about the role of rivers in logistics.

"The White Emperor's farewell speech is among the colorful clouds. A thousand miles of rivers and mountains are returned in one day. Liu Chan pointed at the map and said,"You can see the distance from Baidi City to Jiangling. It only takes one day to go down the river.""

"With such a convenient method, why not use it for transporting grain? Liu Chan continued:"The upper reaches of the Yangtze River is in the middle of Shu. We can build ships in the middle of Shu and use the Yangtze River for rapid transportation to transport autumn grain to Jingzhou.""

"At present, the Xiangfan area has been actually controlled by the Han Dynasty"

"After the grain and grass arrived in Jingzhou, they transferred from the Yangtze River to the Han River, went upstream and then entered the Mianshui River, and finally arrived at Nanzheng City"

"The whole journey is by water, and the food from Shuzhong can be delivered to Hanzhong in a month at most, and it won't even take a month."

"The most important thing. Liu Chan said in a deep voice:"Ship, you don't need to eat!" Only a handful of people are needed to control the ship."

Food suffers a lot during transportation, firstly because it takes a long time, and secondly because there are too many people to eat, which leads to too much food.

However, water transportation not only takes less time, but also requires greatly fewer manpower, which naturally results in less food.

"hiss...Wonderful!"

"Yes, why didn't you think of that before?"

"Nonsense, Xiangfan was not in our hands before."

The ministers discussed a lot, and they were all very optimistic about Liu Chan's strategy.

"Your Highness. Zhuge Liang suddenly spoke and said:"Although Xiangfan is in our hands, Xiakou is under the rule of Jiangdong.""

Xiakou. The intersection of the Yangtze River and the Han River.

Ships from Shuzhong need to pass through the territory of Jiangdong if they want to enter the Han River from the Yangtze River. This is somewhat of a hidden danger.

"Sir, there is no need to worry. The simpler way is to arrive at Jiangling by ship, then transport the grain and grass by land, and then transport it to Xiangfan by water."

"Jiangling is not far from Xiangfan, and it only takes ten days at most to travel by land, which is completely acceptable."

"hehe. Liu Bei smiled and said:"Since this is a stupid way, I wonder if Adou has a clever way?""

"It’s even simpler, just take the water route the whole way. Liu Chan said confidently:"Jiangdong has just reconciled with us. I don't believe they dare to seize our ships blatantly.""

"It's just an excuse, can Jiang Dong still refuse?"

"Even if I may refuse in the future, I will definitely not refuse in the next few years."

Indeed, the two families had just repaired their relationship, and Jiangdong refused to allow Han ships to borrow the passage. This was unjustifiable both emotionally and rationally.

Besides, if Jiangdong really refused to borrow the passage, then they would have to take a short land route.

Jiangling is not far from Xiangfan, and it is still plain all the way. , compared with the difficulty of Shu Road, it is simply not difficult.

"Your Highness, I have another question. Fazheng said:"The ship sets off from Shuzhong to go downstream. This is not a big problem.""

"But if the ship wants to return to Shu, it seems...Can't do it?"

"Your Majesty is right, there is indeed no turning back for the ship."Liu Chan nodded and admitted.

The reason is naturally because of the Three Gorges.

It is more dangerous for ships to go down the Three Gorges.

But if you want to go upstream through the Three Gorges, it is impossible to do it because of the turbulent currents.

In other words, every transport For a batch of grain and grass, a batch of ships must be built in Sichuan, because the ships will never come back.

"Calculated this way, shipbuilding will also consume a lot of money. Liu Bei frowned and said,"Building ships every year is a big expense.""

"What my father said is true, but this is not a waste. These ships will come in handy sooner or later. Liu Chan said calmly

"What's the use?"Liu Bei immediately asked

"Destroy Jiangdong!"

"Buzz!"

As Liu Chan finished speaking, the hall exploded, and the ministers started talking about it.

"quiet! Liu Chan scolded with a straight face,"What's all the fuss about?""

"In the future, when the Three Kingdoms of Han Dynasty come to dominate the world, can they still leave Jiangdong alone?"

The ministers looked at each other in confusion, but no one said anything to refute, because what Liu Chan said did make sense.

However, just after the Sun and Liu families reconciled, their heir apparent was holding back his desire to destroy Jiangdong, which really surprised them.

When the ministers calmed down, Liu Chan continued:"To destroy Jiangdong, water warfare will bear the brunt, and the primary factor in water warfare is warships."

"Although the cost of building ships in Shuzhong is not small every year, in a few years, the Han Dynasty will have a considerable number of warships."

"It can not only transport food, but also expand the navy, killing two birds with one stone."

"The ships cannot return to Shu, but they can return to Jingzhou and practice in the Yangtze River and Han River."Liu Chan cupped his hands and said,"My son suggested that Father Zhong should take over the post of Commander-in-Chief of the Navy and start preparing and training the Navy as early as possible to avoid temporary preparations in the future."(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Food transportation, warships, and naval commanders were completed in one go, from beginning to end. When everyone heard this, they knew that Liu Chan was not impulsive, let alone a slap on the forehead. Today's A series of arguments that were obviously well thought out.

Especially for the choice of water warfare commander, Guan Yu is really suitable.

The only general under Liu Bei who knows water warfare is Guan Yu.

And because he has been in Jingzhou for many years, Guan Yu has a strong water warfare ability.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Zhuge Liang smiled and clasped his fists,"The prince has another good suggestion.""

"Hahaha~" Liu Bei grinned behind his ears, not to mention very proud.

But he said humbly:"Everywhere, Kong Ming teaches well, teaches well."

After the monarch and his ministers exchanged polite greetings, Liu Bei waved his hand and ordered:"All your dear friends have also heard this. From now on, the strategy of the military advisor and the prince will be implemented immediately without any mistakes!"

"Please obey the order!"All the ministers accepted the order in unison.

Then the court meeting dispersed, and Liu Bei left Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Liu Chan behind.

"Second brother and third brother, the New Year is approaching and I have nothing to do. Let’s have a drink today?"

In the 16th year of Jian'an, Liu Bei left Jingzhou for Shu. It is now the end of the 24th year of Jian'an.

The three brothers have not been able to get together for more than eight years.

"What's the point of having a drink? Zhang Fei immediately said:"I must have a drink today!""[]

"I didn’t have enough fun in Jingzhou, so I must have a good drink today."Guan Yu stroked his beard and smiled, it was rare that he wanted to be arrogant.

"OK OK. Liu Bei said happily:"The two younger brothers are"

"I will serve you three glasses of wine."Liu Chan quickly said:"But forget it about drinking."

"Look at your boy's future. Zhang Fei patted Liu Chan on the shoulder, shook his head and said,"How can a man not drink?""

"Okay, Third Brother, Adou is still young, so don’t embarrass him."Guan Yu persuaded

""Tsk, tsk, tsk~" Zhang Fei teased:"Look, the second brother is more protective of the calf. Wasn't it Adou who just hired you an official?""

"So what? Guan Yu said proudly:"The eldest nephew has me as his father-in-law in his heart.""

Previously, Liu Chan suggested that Guan Yu should come back to rest and let Ma Chao take charge in Jingzhou.

But unexpectedly, after returning, Liu Chan invited the Navy Commander, and Guan Yu was extremely happy.

"Zhong's father has ten thousand enemies, and he is the only one among his father's men who is proficient in water warfare. Putting him in Jingzhou is really overkill."Liu Chan took the opportunity and said:"In the land of Jingzhou, it is enough for Uncle Meng Qi to be in charge. The commander of the Navy also needs Uncle Zhong to take on the important responsibility."

"Hahaha~" Guan Yu stroked his beard and laughed,"This guy is really good at talking."

The atmosphere was cheerful. The three brothers sat together casually, and Liu Chan was busy pouring wine.

"Brother, there is something you must obey me today."Zhang Fei put down his wine glass and wiped his mouth casually with his hand,"Otherwise I won't leave today."

"If you don’t leave, you won’t leave."Liu Bei laughed and scolded:"We brothers will sleep at our feet tonight."

The three brothers often got under the same bed when they were young. Listening to Liu Bei's words, they plan to"relive old dreams" tonight.

"Oops, I'm serious."Zhang Fei was annoyed.

"Okay, okay, whatever you say, can you still agree to it? Liu Bei said helplessly

"~My eldest girl, Jin Yun, has long wanted to be betrothed to Adou."Zhang Fei continued:"It's not because Adou is young, that's why he hasn't decided yet."

"It's good now. Both of them have to pass, but Jin Yun can't be ranked."

"This marriage must be finalized today, otherwise I will overturn the table."

Historically, Liu Chan's queen was Zhang Fei's daughter, for two consecutive terms.

This marriage was indeed mentioned verbally when Liu Chan was young. The reason why it was never officially finalized was because Liu Chan was young and secondly. It can be finalized at any time, so there is no rush.

However, seeing that Liu Chan's wedding is about to take place, his wife Wu Ran, and his concubines include Ma Lingli, Guan Yinping, Cao Cao's granddaughter, and Sun Quan's daughter.

Zhang Fei can't sit still now, and he will take action quickly if he doesn't No chance

"Okay, I know that girl Jin Yun, she is knowledgeable, sensible, virtuous and generous."Liu Bei looked at his son and said,"This guy is taking advantage of you."

Liu Bei did not refuse. It was not as troublesome as when Ma Chao proposed marriage.

In the final analysis, the relationship is different.

And if Liu Bei dared to pretend to refuse, this brainless third brother would really dare to turn the table and fall out. Liu Bei would not ask for it. boring

"Haha, I feel relieved if I have this big brother."Zhang Fei said again:"What a bargain for my nephew, the wealth will not flow to outsiders!"

"You idiot!"Guan Yu laughed and scolded after hearing this.

Just like that, another person was added to Liu Chan's marriage list.

The small episode passed quickly, and the three brothers continued to drink happily, reminiscing about the past, and talking about various past events in their youth.

Liu Chan stood aside. Tianjiu also listened with gusto.

Neither history books nor novels could fully explain all the experiences of the three of them. Liu Chan also heard many"fresh past events" from their mouths that he had never heard before."

"So many years have passed in a flash..."Liu Bei sighed and said:"Remembering the sworn friendship in Taoyuan, it seems like it was yesterday. Looking back, the three of us all have white beards and hair."

Liu Bei was already sixty years old, and Guan and Zhang were more than fifty.

Even if you don’t want to admit it, you still have to accept the reality of getting older.

"I don’t know...Can we see the day when the world is unified and the Han Dynasty is rejuvenated?"

"Brother, what are you talking about? Zhang Fei said unhappily:"Isn't this my eldest nephew? I think Adou will definitely be able to help us fulfill our ambitions when we were young in the future!""

"good. Guan Yu stroked his beard and said:"Adou is a good boy, (Hao Nuo Hao) must have a great future!""

Liu Bei smiled happily when he heard this. There is indeed nothing that makes people more happy than an excellent heir.

The matter of establishing the capital, Jingzhou's performance, and the recent strategy are all on the surface. Liu Chan is the perfect heir to this country. Especially Liu Chan is still very young

"Adou, you have a heavy burden on your shoulders, and the future depends on you."

"My father's words are serious. You three are in their prime, and you will definitely be able to see the three prosperity of the Han Dynasty with your own eyes."

"Hahaha, then let’s take advantage of Adou’s lucky words!"Liu Bei laughed and raised his glass.

In fact, the three brothers knew very well that it was probably impossible. Unifying the world was not an easy task. They had worked hard for it all their lives, but they could only get one-third of it.

However, they did not say such disappointing words. After coming out, the three of them continued to drink happily.

At this moment, a waiter suddenly came in

"King...Something happened..."

"Damn it! Liu Bei rarely got angry,"Can't you just live alone with your brothers?"!"

The wine party was disturbed, which made Liu Bei very unhappy.

"Father, please calm down and leave your sons to deal with it. The three of you will continue."

"That's fine. Liu Bei nodded in agreement.

When the waiter saw this, he hesitated. Liu Bei immediately frowned and said,"What?" The prince can't handle it?"

"Shouldn't be able to handle it...but"

"What is should? What happened? Liu Bei scolded:"You guys are really useless. Why do you have to stand alone for anything?""

If the waiter from the house comes to report, it will definitely not be a major national event, just a trivial matter.

If there is a big event, it must be Zhuge Liang or Fazheng.

This is also the reason why Liu Bei is angry, because a little nonsense affects the reunion with his brothers. It's strange to be happy

"Liu Bei, the older he gets, the stronger his temper becomes!"

Who is so bold to call the King of Hanzhong by name and break into the palace directly?

Guan Zhang and Liu Chan subconsciously looked outside, with angry looks on their faces.

But a very funny scene appeared. After the three people turned their heads to see clearly who was coming, He turned his head back at the speed of light again, as if he had"seen a ghost".

When Liu Bei saw the person behind him, his head suddenly became as big as a bucket, and his forehead was sweating.
