Chapter 0149 Arriving in the Northwest, Zhu Yuanzhang Soil Bun Entered the City Chief to See!!!

King Zhu Li of Han, both literary and martial, invincible in the world?

This sentence came out of other people, Zhu Di could accept it, but the person who said this sentence was actually Yao Guangxiao!

How many meanings does this damn monk mean?

“Now even you think that King Ben is inferior to him?”

Zhu Di asked with a livid face.

“The point is not how I feel, but how you see it yourself!”

Yao Guangxiao reminded lightly.

Zhu Di opened his mouth, but the words that just came to his mouth were swallowed back.

He really wanted to say that he was the strongest one, but he had no confidence!

Just as Yao Guangxiao said, in addition to not having seen Lao Jiu’s strength on the battlefield, in all other aspects, he seems to have been crushed by Lao Jiu, and he is still the kind of bodyless!

If he said that he was stronger than Zhu Li, it would be tantamount to deceiving himself!

“If you can face King Han squarely, you can have a more objective understanding and evaluation of him. When you face him, you will not be swayed by your emotions or prejudices. ”

“If your judgment is wrong, if you really go head-to-head with him in the future, you will lose badly!”

“Just because the opponent is better than yourself doesn’t mean there’s no hope of winning!”

“Think about what Liu Bang was able to defeat Xiang Yu in the first place? The brain, the mind, is a person’s most powerful weapon! ”

“Since you know where the enemy’s strengths are, you must know how to take advantage of your strengths and avoid your weaknesses!”

Yao Guangxiao looked at Zhu Di’s appearance that seemed to have become enlightened, and smiled and admonished again.

“You’re right, King Ben won’t despise Lao Jiu anymore! Next, you also need to bother to help King Ben with advice, and more importantly, when King Ben is in trouble, you can wake up King Ben! ”

Zhu Di took a deep breath and nodded slowly.

“That’s nature!”

Yao Guangxiao had a hint of appreciation in his eyes, and nodded with a smile.

“It also takes courage to admit that your opponent is better than yourself. If you can figure it out, it means that your state of mind has grown and improved! ”

“Do you know what the biggest problem is with you?”

Yao Guangxiao suddenly changed his tone at this time.

“Please advise!”

Zhu Di said thoughtfully.

“It’s that you are too smooth, it seems that you have never encountered a setback! At least after you join the clan, what you want to do, what you want to achieve, has been achieved! ”

“Young Yanfan, with the help of your father-in-law Xu Da, you were able to gain a firm foothold in Beiping and turn Beiping into a monolith!”

“Hongwu twenty-three years, you led the army deep into Mobei, captured Nai’er alive, and was highly praised by the old man, making you gradually feel that you are invincible in the world, and do not put any other clan kings in your eyes!”

“Now you should know what it means that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the people.”

Yao Guangxiao explained solemnly.

King Ben understood. Since that’s the case, then according to what Lao Jiu said, let’s pay for his food! ”

“As for him to move troops against Wala, it can be regarded as solving our worries, and then it depends on our respective means, who can fight more beautifully!”

After Zhu Di’s sharp words, Zhu Di seemed to have really seen the general blow, and his mentality also changed slightly.

The once confident Yan King Zhu Di seems to be back! Two days later.

Zhu Yuanzhang’s team had already passed through Henan and entered the Shaanxi realm, and in a few days or so, they would be able to reach Xi’an Prefecture.

“Your Majesty, the front is about to enter the territory of Shangnan, and when you reach Shangnan, you will enter Shaanxi, and it is also the area under the control of King Zhu Li of Han!”

At this moment, Jiang Ying’s voice came in from outside the carriage.

“Is this going to Shaanxi?”

Zhu Yuanzhang also did not expect that the time would be a day earlier than he expected, and no one bothered along the way, which was much faster.

Soon, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that the carriage, which was still a little bumpy, began to stabilize in all directions.

This feeling he had already experienced when he was in Ying Tianfu.

This is the feeling of a horse-drawn carriage driving on a concrete road.

The batch of cement that Lao Jiu sent to Yingtianfu before has been paved with cement on the main streets of Yingtianfu.

This time out of the palace was also the first time that Zhu Yuanzhang experienced the feeling of being on the cement road.

But this is the border of Shaanxi, how can there be cement roads in the jurisdiction of a county?

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was a little shocked in his heart, asked Wang Chen to open the curtain of the carriage door and saw a wide and straight cement road ahead!

“Jiang Ying, didn’t Jinyiwei say before that Hanzhong Mansion built a cement road to Xi’an Prefecture? How come there are cement roads even in this Shangnan County? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes widened and asked Jiang Shi, who was riding along on horseback.

“Back to Your Majesty. Many cement roads have also been opened in the counties under the administration of Hanzhong and Xi’an Prefectures, all of which have just been recently laid! ”

“These cement roads connect almost all the major towns in Hanzhong Province and Xi’an Province, and they are also to facilitate caravan travel and army dispatch!”

Jiang Ying explained with a smile.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was shocked.

What is convenient for the common people and the like is the benefit that can be seen in front of him, but what really moved Zhu Yuanzhang was the army dispatch that Jiang Ying said!

It is conceivable that on such a smooth cement road, not to mention that the horses run with half the effort, even if the infantry marches on one pair of legs, it is more than twice as fast as in other places, and it is not a problem to run and see the march!

If you really need to fight a war and need to mobilize the army, these concrete roads can still work wonders!

In Zhu Yuanzhang’s view, the role of this cement road in wartime is more important than usual!

“Going down to Xi’an Prefecture, we only need to walk directly along this cement road, and the journey can be much faster, at most tomorrow at noon, we can arrive in Xi’an Prefecture in advance!”

Jiang Ying said with a smile.

“Good!”

“When we see Lao Jiu, we must let him build a cement road that leads directly to Yingtianfu!”

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded in satisfaction.

He had already mentioned this idea to the crown prince Zhu Biao last time, and this time he came to Hanzhong to build a cement road to Yingtianfu, which was also one of the goals he wanted to achieve.

If you go from Yingtianfu to Hanzhongfu, in addition to crossing some Yangtze Rivers and the like

Localities, can take this wide and smooth cement road, then the schedule can be shortened by at least half!

This is really called a big project that has been achieved for thousands of years!

That evening, Zhu Yuanzhang and his party arrived directly in Shangzhou, about half a day’s journey from Xi’an Prefecture.

Jinwuwei’s 2,000 cavalry were arranged by Zhu Yuanzhang to camp outside Shangzhou City for the night, while he took a group of Jinyiwei directly into Shangzhou City.

Shangzhou is also a large city within the boundaries of Xi’an Prefecture second only to Xi’an Prefecture.

Although he has not yet arrived in Xi’an, just by looking at Shangzhou, he can imagine the prosperity of Xi’an Prefecture.

Shang Prefecture was previously a prefecture system, and in the seventh year of Hongwu, the prefecture was withdrawn to the county system and unified under the administration of Xi’an Prefecture.

Because it is close to the densely populated Xi’an Province, Shangzhou is also very prosperous.

More than a thousand Jinyiwei were reduced to zero, and after entering the city, they were hidden all over Shangzhou, and following Zhu Yuanzhang’s side, except for Wang Chen and Jiang Ying, there were only six Jinyiwei hundred households.

The group of nine directly found the most luxurious inn in Shangzhou City.

But after moving in, everything he saw in front of him completely broke Zhu Yuanzhang’s cognition!

“Your Majesty, this Hongyun Inn is a chain inn of Hanzhong Mansion, and the owner is Han King’s Mansion.”

Jiang Ying looked at Zhu Yuanzhang looking curious about everything, and introduced in a low voice on the side.

“Do you mean that this inn was still made by Lao Jiu?”

Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes immediately widened.

“That’s right, according to the news from Xi’an Prefecture and Hanzhong Prefecture Jinyiwei, this Hongyun Inn has opened a total of twelve stores in the entire northwest province, all of which are invested by Hanwangfu, and also use a technology called solar power generation, in Hongyunke Station, the lighting facilities used are no longer lamps and candles, but replaced by such electric lights!”

Jiang Ying pointed to the glowing light bulb on the top of the guest room and explained to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Needless to say, some of the facilities and equipment of these twelve inns must have been made by Zhou Shuyi’s girl!

Solar power supply, although there is no way to popularize it on a large scale, but it can still be used for the inn opened by your own family!

“As you can see, this inn is still a new building made of red brick cement. The overall design of the interior is built according to the standards set by the Han Royal Mansion! ”

“Each room is also equipped with a separate toilet!”

Jiang Ying continued to explain to Zhu Yuanzhang.

“What is a bathroom?”

Zhu Yuanzhang asked with some curiosity.

“Oh… It’s the place to go out and wash! ”

Jiang Shan explained with some hesitation.

“What? How did Degong and the washing place get together? And the toilet of Izuku actually got into the guest room? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes widened directly after hearing this.

“Your Majesty still takes a direct look, and everything is clear!”

Jiang Ying smiled bitterly, and could only take Zhu Yuanzhang directly into the bathroom of the guest room.

After Zhu Yuanzhang saw the sink, toilet and a large round wooden barrel, he showed a thoughtful expression.

This large wooden barrel must have been used for bathing, but there are two pipes on the side of this barrel, and I don’t know what it is for.

There is also a similar pipe on the sink, Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it and probably guessed that this pipe should be used for water!

“Your Majesty, please see, this is called a washing station, washing and anything can be here, as long as you turn on this switch, water will flow out!”

“In addition, there are water pipes on the side of this ordinary one, one is cold water, and the other is hot water specially used by solar energy in the inn!”

“By the way, this thing is called a toilet, and it is out of court!”

“You can sit directly on it when you go out, and you see, press this button directly after using it, and all the filth will be washed directly into the sewer by clean water!”

Jiang Ying was afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang would not use these things, and explained the use of all the facilities to Zhu Yuanzhang in the same way.

“This… Is this true in every room? ”

After Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Jiang Shan’s explanation, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

Everything in this so-called bathroom was something he had never seen before!

Even if he lives in the palace, he needs the palace eunuch to directly help him fetch water into the palace on weekdays, and there is also a special bucket for gong when he goes out.

But compared with this bathroom, it is too inconvenient, with this bathroom, why do you need to spend so many things?

“That’s right, every room!”

Jiang Ying nodded reasonably.

“Well… If it’s just the inn, it’s good to say, but if the common people are like this in their homes, the filth after the courtesy is directly washed with water, which is really wasteful! ”

“Not to mention wasting water, but also wasting such a good fertilizer. How good would it be to send it to the crop fields to fertilize? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, and felt that this design was a bit wasteful.

The northwest land has little rain, not to mention the lack of water, and although the filth after the scandal is smelly, it is a good fertilizer on the crops!

Zhu Yuanzhang was originally a farmer, and it is easy to see the drawbacks behind this clean and convenient.

“Your Majesty doesn’t have to worry.”

“The filth that is washed away will follow these pipes into a place called a cesspool. If you need fertilizer, just let the car go to the manure tank to pull it, and save the collection one by one! ”

When Jiang Ying heard this, he quickly explained.

“So it is!”

“So where did all this water come from?”

Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes lit up and nodded, obviously making Zhu Yuanzhang very satisfied with the way the feces were handled.

But wasting water is an indisputable fact.

“For water, there is a large reservoir on the roof of this inn, and water is pumped into this reservoir in the old days.”

“The minister also knows that His Majesty is distressed by water, and he also knows that the northwest region is already short of water. However, this problem has been solved by His Royal Highness the King of Han a long time ago! ”

Jiang Ying said with a smile.

“Oh? How did Lao Jiu solve it? Say it and listen! ”

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he immediately came to the spirit.

“Since entering the Shaanxi realm, have you noticed the difference between this side and that side in Henan?”

Jiang Ying reminded meaningfully.

“You mean that there is a big pit that appears every few miles here, right?”

“Let’s see that there is not much water in those big pits!”

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately remembered the large water storage pits he saw along the way, but he didn’t think so.

“There is not much water now, and although the northwest is short of water, it is not without floods.”

“His Royal Highness King Han said that these water storage pits are all small reservoirs, which are specially used to store water on weekdays, and can also play a role in flood prevention during flood season!”

“Now almost the entire jurisdiction of Hanzhong Prefecture and Xi’an Prefecture, there is such a small reservoir that can store water and prevent floods!”

“And Hanwang also asked people to design some special equipment for agricultural irrigation, which can directly introduce the water source in the reservoir into the rice fields!”

Jiang Ying explained very carefully, and heard Zhu Yuanzhang nodding repeatedly.

But soon, Zhu Yuanzhang reacted: “Why are you so familiar with the situation here in Hanzhong?” Why didn’t I hear you tell us before? ”

Jiang Ying also seemed to have known that Zhu Yuanzhang would ask this question, and hurriedly explained with a smile: “Since you went out on patrol, we have asked this Jinyiwei to quickly collect news, every day this kind of thing is reported to the minister, the reason why the minister did not tell you directly is that some things can only be better explained by the minister when you see it with your own eyes!” ”

“Otherwise, if you don’t understand this broken mouth of the minister, if you can’t understand it, it’s not the minister’s sin?”

Jiang Ying’s explanation was reasonable, but Zhu Yuanzhang couldn’t fault it.

“Well, you have a heart.”

“If you hadn’t inquired in advance, we might have to make a joke, and Zhu Yuanzhang would have lost his temper after listening to it.”

He now felt that he had come to this northwest land as if a hillbilly had entered the city.

This feeling made him a little difficult to accept.

“By the way, Your Majesty, just now Jinyiwei came to report that His Royal Highness King Han and his family have left for Xi’an Mansion!”

At this moment, Jiang Ying’s words changed.

“Well? Why did he suddenly run to Xi’an? Did he already know that we were going to Xi’an? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes immediately widened.

“It should not be, King Han went to Xi’an Prefecture to inspect several factories opened in Xi’an Prefecture, and some military materials were produced from these two factories!”

“The minister’s side has also just received news that the Hanzhong Mansion has sent troops to Wala!”

“King Han’s arrival in Xi’an Prefecture should also be for some things to supply the rear of the army: love!”

Jiang Ying hurriedly explained.

“What? Lao Jiu actually mobilized troops against Vara?! ”

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was shocked!

Although he knew from the deduction that Lao Jiu would definitely move troops against the tile thorn, he didn’t expect this kid to move so quickly!

The fourth man has just sent out troops not long ago!
