Chapter 2561 The second battle outside the fortress, Zheng Guo sacrificed his life to recommend Li Bing

Chapter 2557: In the second battle outside the fortress, Zheng Guo sacrificed his life to recommend Li Bing

Huo Qubing didn't need anyone. He knew that the heavy rain wouldn't stop in a short time, so he couldn't just wait and waste time, so he preferred to take a long way around.

 Facts have proved that Huo Qubing’s choice was extremely correct.

The heavy rain in Yinshan Mountain was the heaviest in more than ten years, and it lasted for a full month and a half before it ended.

If Huo Qubing really kept waiting, he would still be unable to walk even if the rain stopped, because there was too much water and floods had formed in many places, and the original route could no longer be walked at all.

In order to prevent Hezhou from suffering floods, Wen Tianxiang planned to dig a canal in Yinshan Mountain to divert the accumulated water into the Yellow River.

Wen Tianxiang’s original plan was to recruit 300,000 people in Hezhou and spend half a year to dig canals in sections.

This is no small project. Even if Wen Tianxiang was the governor, he did not dare to issue an order without authorization, so he submitted a letter to the court.

After Ying Hao received Wen Tianxiang’s letter, he immediately summoned Zheng Guo, the Water Conservancy Department of the Ministry of Industry, and asked him whether Wen Tianxiang’s plan was feasible. After all, Zheng Guo was the professional in water conservancy engineering.

After reading Wen Tianxiang's plan, Zheng Guo said decisively: "Your Majesty, Governor Wen once this canal is completed, if there are heavy rains in the future, the flood disaster will be minimized, and both sides of the canal are convenient for agricultural irrigation, which will provide Hezhou has added one million acres of fertile farmland, which can be said to be a multi-purpose achievement.

only…"

 “Just what?”

“It’s just that Governor Wen was a little too optimistic about manpower and the exploration of the canal, and the canal may have to be dug to Liangzhou and Bingzhou.

Wei Chen estimated that if 300,000 people worked for half a year, it would definitely not be completed on time. "

“How much manpower will be needed? And how long will it take?”

“This Weichen doesn’t know either. Weichen doesn’t know the terrain of Hezhou. We need to conduct on-site inspections before we can roughly estimate how long it will take.”

Ying Hao nodded in agreement upon hearing this, and then said: "In that case, Aiqing will be responsible for opening the canal."

Zheng Guo shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, the water conservancy project in Hebei has not been completely completed, and the management of the Yellow River needs to be managed by a small minister. It is really powerless. Your Majesty, please hire another talented person."

When Ying Hao heard this, he looked at Zheng Guo’s dark circles under his eyes and his missing belly, and knew that Zheng Guo must have been very tired in the past two years. He said that the waterway department was the busiest department of the Ministry of Industry.

In addition to Zheng Guo, Li Daoyuan is not inferior in water conservancy, but Li Daoyuan is now in charge of the Road Construction Department and is responsible for Chidao in the four states of Hebei, and he is also unable to spare time.

"Well, since Zheng Aiqing has no other skills, I can only find someone else to do it, but in a hurry, I can't think of any suitable candidates. I wonder if Aiqing has any recommendations?"

"this…"

Seeing that Zheng Guo was hesitant to speak, Ying Hao felt a little strange and couldn't help but ask: "Does your love have any difficulties?"

"It's not that Wei Chen does have a suitable candidate in mind, but although this person is talented, he is from a subordinate background."

"What's wrong with the ministers? One-third of the officials in our Qin Dynasty are ministers. As long as this person has this ability, I will still use him even if his background is flawed."

Hearing Ying Hao's words, Zheng Guo no longer had any scruples in his heart, and said: "The person recommended by me is Li Bing, the former minister of the Ministry of Industry of the Tang Dynasty. This person was from the Li Tang clan, and all the major water canals in Guanzhong are under his control. Build.”

Ying Hao was startled when he heard this, it was Li Bing?

If nothing unexpected happens, the Li Bing mentioned by Zheng Guo should be the one who established the capital of Jiangyan during the period of King Qin Zhao, but I don’t know which round of Baizhao’s hidden figure he was.

“Where is this person now?” Ying Hao asked.

"Your Majesty, after the fall of Chang'an, Li Bing returned to the Qin Dynasty. However, he was not taken seriously because of his background. He is now serving as a flood control order in Guanzhong and is under the jurisdiction of the Water Conservancy Department of the Ministry of Industry."

At this point, Zheng Guo seemed to have made up his mind, and said with a serious face: "Wei Chen is willing to guarantee with the lives of his whole family that Li Bing is no less good than Wei Chen in terms of water conservancy, and he will definitely be able to successfully build the Shanyin Canal."

Ying Hao smiled and waved his hand, saying: "Guarantee is not necessary. Since Zheng Aiqing admires this person so much, I think this Li Bing must have real talent and knowledge. In this case, leave the Yinshan Canal to him."

 “Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust.”

Zheng Guo left with a happy face. He had no personal relationship with Li Bing, but they were both in the same field and had known each other for a long time, so they sympathized with each other and did not want Li Bing to remain silent, so he took the risk to recommend Li Bing.

Zheng Guo left with satisfaction, and Ying Hao was also very satisfied. After all, he found another capable minister. After all, in addition to controlling floods, Li Bing also served as the prefect of Shu County, and his governance ability was equally good.

“Wherever there is a flood in the future, Li Bing will be transferred to serve as the prefect.”

Ying Hao thought to himself, and then clicked on the system announcement to look for system prompts about leaving the blockade, but a large number of unread messages popped up, and Ying Hao could only browse them one by one.

 【Ding dong, Xue Rengui's skill "Divine Power" is activated...】

 【Ding dong, Han Xin's skill "Bing Xian" is released...】

 【Ding dong, Guan Zhong's skills...】

 Most of the unread messages that pop up in the system's backlog are about so-and-so launching skills. This kind of useless reminder has only a few valuable ones, such as:

  【Ding dong, Fang Xuanling, the governor of Bingzhou, governs Bingzhou, has good political connections and people, improves his governance ability, and has a permanent +1 political attribute;

 Current Fang Xuanling: Commander 70 (+4), Force 52 (+10), Intelligence 100 (+2), Politics 99 (+3), Charisma 96 (+5);】

Seeing this, Ying Hao said to himself: "Fang Xuanling's politics have improved so quickly. It is indeed right to let him govern outside the country."

[Ding dong, Wen Tianxiang, the governor of Hezhou, governs Hezhou, the weather is smooth, the grain production increases greatly, and he leads the construction of the Yinshan Canal project, the governance ability is improved, and the political attribute is permanently +1;       Current Wen Tianxiang: Commander 96, Force 73 (+4), Intelligence 95 (+1), Politics 99 (+2), Charisma 99 (+1)]

Wen Tianxiang's political achievements are obvious to all. Six of the eight counties in Hezhou were basically established by him. It is logical that the political attribute will improve completely. Unfortunately, there is still no attribute in the five dimensions that exceeds 100.

 【Dingdong, Liu Ye, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, is in charge of the Ministry of Industry and presides over three major projects. His governance ability is improved and his political attributes are permanently +1;

 Current Liu Ye: Command 77 (+3), Force 70 (+4), Intelligence 96, Politics 96 (+5), Charisma 92 (+2);]

The Ministry of Works is the busiest among the six departments. As the Minister of the Ministry of Works and a member of the Han Dynasty, Liu Ye may be criticized if anything goes wrong.

Therefore, Liu Ye has been walking on thin ice for two years. He has to personally deal with all aspects and does not dare to be lax in any way. He can be called the most diligent minister in the six departments. It is difficult not to improve his political attributes.

Similar to Fang Xuanling, Wen Tianxiang, and Liu Ye, there are many people who have improved their abilities, such as: Qiao Yu, Qin Lie, Zhou Yi, Mi Zhu, Zao Zhi, Ren Jun, Gu Yong, Kan Ze, etc. .

 In short, the more important someone is used, the better their political performance will be, and for people whose attributes are not that high, it will naturally be relatively easier to improve their attributes.

  【Ding dong, Wang Mang proclaimed himself king, founded North Korea, and became the founding king of North Korea. He will be rewarded with a permanent +1 in five dimensions and a permanent +3 charm;

 The current five dimensions of Wang Mang: Commander 95 (+5), Force 101 (+21), Intelligence 99 (+1), Politics 102 (+1), Charisma 94 (-1);】

Ying Hao was also a little surprised when he saw this. He was not surprised that Wang Mang unified North Korea and became king, but that Wang Mang's attributes had improved so much.

None of Wang Mang's five dimensions is lower than 94 points, and his intelligence attribute has reached 99, which is about to break 100. He deserves to be the first time traveler.

“The Korean Peninsula has a small land and few people. No matter how much Wang Mang does, as long as I keep vigilance against him, he is bound to be unable to make any waves. After the reunification, I will deal with this guy together with the Manchus.”

Ying Hao snorted coldly, his fear of Wang Mang increasing instead of decreasing.

 【Ding dong, Aixinjueluo Huang Taiji proclaims himself emperor, and will be rewarded with a permanent +1 in the fifth dimension;

 The current five dimensions of Aisin Gioro Huang Taiji: Commander 99 (+1), Force 99 (+2), Intelligence 94 (+1), Politics 97 (+1), Charisma 98 (+1);】

  【Ding dong, Wanyan Aguda proclaimed himself emperor, founded the Kingdom of Jin, and became the founding king of the Kingdom of Jin. Rewards: permanent +1 in five dimensions, permanent +1 in intelligence attributes, and permanent +1 in charm;

 The current five-dimensional Wanyan Aguda: Commander 101 (+3), Force 105 (+4), Intelligence 90 (+10), Politics 96 (+3), Charisma 98 (+2);]

Since Aguda was the founder of the country and Huang Taiji was the successor, Aguda naturally improved more attributes than Huang Taiji.

Hong Taiji's improvement is regular, but Aguda is just like cheating. Two of his attributes have exceeded 100, and this was the case with Nurhachi back then.

Seeing this attribute of Aguda, Ying Hao couldn't help but worry a little. Even if Huang Taiji and Dorgon team up, they may not be Aguda's opponent. After all, the Aixinjueluo family does not have a 101 commander.

"Huang Taiji, you have to give me some credit." Ying Hao said to himself.

Ying Hao spent three hours to browse through thousands of miscellaneous messages and find the system information for the battle outside the fortress.

[Ding dong, Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Xu Huang, and Yu Jin are all present at the same time. The combo skill 'Five Sons of the Same Heart' effect 3 is activated. The generals in the army gain +1 force and increase the marching speed of the entire army... The more people present, the greater the increase in the army. . 】

 【Ding dong, Yue Fei's skill ‘Martial Saint’ is activated, effect 4 is activated, all generals’ force +1…】

【Ding dong, Huo Qubing and Wei Qing are present at the same time. Effect 2 of the combo skill 'Golden Arms and Iron Horse' is activated, and the strength of the entire cavalry under his command is +1; Effect 4 is activated, and the marching speed is increased by 20%...]

Seeing that the three armies entering the fortress all activated their group amplification skills, Ying Hao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After all, with these three skills, it was impossible to fail this time.

Ying Hao smiled and continued to look down.

【Ding dong, Tai Shi Ci (Commander 91) teamed up with Yue Zhongqi to defeat and shoot Yuanmeng General Shiji Huduhu (Commander 92), and the commander was rewarded with a permanent +1;

 Current Taishi Ci: Commander 92 (+4), Force 104 (+4), Intelligence 80 (+1), Politics 70 (+2), Charisma 88 (+3);】

[Ding Dong, Gao Shun (Commander 95) led 2,000 Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, defeated 4,000 Yuan Meng Iron Cavalry head-on, and killed General Wang Guer (Commander 95). His ability to command troops was improved, and his commander attribute permanently +1;

 Current Gao Shun: Gao Shun, commander 96 (+5), force 100 (+8), intelligence 85 (+5), politics 60 (+4), charisma 88 (+9);】

【Ding dong, Xu Huang fought one against two in a fierce battle, single-handedly challenged Yuanmeng General Kuokuo Chu and Shi Bingzhi, breaking through his own bottleneck, and his military force was permanently +1;

  Xu Huang: Commander 97 (+1), Force 102 (+6), Intelligence 86 (+2), Politics 67 (+4), Charisma 91 (+3);]

 …

The system only prompts for the activation of skills and does not introduce the battle situation in detail, so Ying Hao can only guess on his own.

 Judging from the current prompts, except for the generals on Huo Qubing’s side who have not yet unleashed their skills, the other two groups have activated their skills.

 The reason for this situation should be that Huo Qubing's troops were still marching, while the two armies of Yue Fei and Zhang Liao had already faced off against the Yuan and Mongolian armies.

As for Huo Qubing’s journey, Huo Qubing’s skills Cavalry God and Iron Horse, Wei Qing’s skill Jin Ge, and the combo skill Jin Ge Iron Horse all have the effect of increasing the marching speed.

The speed-increasing effects of the four major skills are superimposed, and the marching speed of Huo Qubing's army will be incredibly fast. Even if they take a detour, they will surely reach the battlefield in a short time.

In addition, judging from the skills displayed by generals Yue Fei and Zhang Liao, Da Qin should be the dominant side. After all, there are no hints of high-ranking Qin generals dying in battle, and they have also killed many Yuan troops. general.
