I don’t know that future generations are the needs of scenery, or that the Yellow River is dry, the transportation is developed, and there is no need for navigation, so the Sanmen and the Main Pigeon still exist. Of course, if you can discuss the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, the Three Gorges Project has been developed, and it is a piece of cake to remove this Main Pigeon. I don’t know that I only know that I have built a useless Sanmenxia Reservoir, spent money, and harmed the Yellow River and Wei River, and sent less electricity.

But in the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, shipping was still the mainstream mode of transportation. Although Chang'an was not the capital, the canal transportation still existed, which proved that even in the Qing dynasty, there was no way to get rid of this pillar. At least the dark gunpowder in the Ming and Qing dynasties had been invented. Perhaps Guanzhong shipping was not mainstream, and the cost was not worth it, but it also proved its stubbornness. But isn't that the case? Even if he remembered very little historical knowledge, it was not!

There were many reasons for the defeat of the Ming Dynasty. In addition to unjustly killing Yuan Chonghuan to destroy the Great Wall, Chongzhen did not do it too stupid. At least he saw Chen Yuanyuan's beauty and immediately gave it to Wu Sangui. At least he was trying to reform. At least Li Zicheng went to Beijing and he did not surrender and committed suicide. Can Liu Chan do it? Can Sun Hao do it? Can Prince Infant do it? Can Chen Shubao do it? Can Li Yu do it? Can Huiqin's two sects do it? The main reason is that the previous masters left too many ills, and Li Zicheng. The reason for rebellion was that the Xiaohan tide climate caused a great famine in Guanzhong, and then to Hedong. If the Sanmen can transport transportation could be solved, would it improve a little. Not to mention how bad the Qing Dynasty was, nomadic peoples replaced the Central Plains themselves as a kind of backwardness.

Therefore, when he was a lecturer in his previous life, he accidentally saw articles written by Yuan Shifei, desperately suppressing the Ming and promoting the Qing Dynasty, using words such as beggars, shabby, evolution (meaning it was not a human, but a monkey), and then he was very angry at the Emperor of Qing Dynasty, Qianlong, Kangxi, etc. He said that the Ming Dynasty would not cede land, not pay compensation, not submit to the ministers, not marrying relatives, not paying tribute, the emperor guarded the country, and the king died of the country. Although it was a little exaggerated to the Ming Dynasty, in comparison, looking at the various things of the Qing Dynasty, it was just right to turn it over!

After thinking about it for a while, the more I thought about it, the more I felt the importance of Sanmen's canal transportation. But even the Ming Dynasty did not manage it. How to manage it now? Could it be that the Wei River became worse later and there was no money to reopen the Guangtong Canal? After all, the Guangtong Canal was not managed for a long time, and it was probably silted after the Ming Dynasty.

But thinking about this, it is probably impossible to manage Sanmenxia. No wonder Yuwen Kai did not succeed in his death and financial resources. No wonder Yan Liben was helpless. The economy could not keep up, and even if he could "change" a lot of money and his technology could not keep up, what should he do?

At this moment, there were shrill shouts on the steep plank road under the cliff. These fiber-pulled plank roads were not excavated on the top of the cliff. This was the case, but it was inconvenient to pull the fiber. So Yang Wulian dug out the plank road on the cliff near the water surface. First, heaved a square mortise every two meters below, inserted a wooden beam, and connected it with wooden boards between the wooden beams. A plank road that exposed the cliff appeared. Then he dug a hole in the cow's nose wall above, tied a stone ring, and tied a rope across the line so that the fiber was used to control it.

It is very humane, so the accident rate will be greatly reduced when pulling fibers. It also shows that the court's determination is only the two plank roads of several miles long, one south and one north, how much money will be spent in this era, or how many people will die.

However, the volume of canal transportation has increased, but there is still an accident. When transportation is busy, there will be an accident almost every few days.

Li Wei stood at the top of the cliff. The boatman at his feet could not see it, but he could see the boatman on the north bank, that is, the direction of the man gate. Because of the force, a rope broke and the boatman lost weight. Although the other hand grabbed the rope on the cliff, several boatmen still fell down like kites. Seeing that the opportunity was not good, the other boatmen immediately put down the rope. The ship that was moving upstream had just come from the pillar. When the rope approached the entrance of the man gate, the rope was put down. The ship immediately swirled a few times and hit the pillar. Not far away, he looked at it and found that it was only about two or three hundred meters away. The people on the boat shouted in surprise. In just a blink of an eye, the boat had already hit. He immediately rolled a few times and sank in the Yellow River. Some of the people on the boat and the several boatmen who fell on the shore had bubbling a few bubbles in the water, and then they could not see it.

Li Wei said: "Go down."

This is not a war, but a peaceful environment. You can’t see it and pretend not to know it, but you can see it. After all, you are a modern person and your ideas are always different.

There is a path that goes to the Ghost Gate Peninsula. Like Renmen, there is also a peninsula, but the triangle is sharp toward the southeast. After passing the Pizhu, it turns to the northeast, and the water flows to the south bank to rush. And unlike Renmen Peninsula, Renmen Peninsula almost opens from the west side of Renmen, but the Ghost Gate Peninsula begins to suddenly extend out from dozens of meters at the end of the Pihost Gate, forming a straight triangle. The water flows rapidly, so once the ship enters the Pihost Gate, even if it passes through the turbulent flow, it will hit the Pihost Gate Peninsula 100%. Shenmen is not good, Shenmen water flows fast, because the river turns south and exits the Pihost Gate, just hitting the Pihost Gate, or can only bypass the Pihost Gate, and there is countless reefs in the Pihost Gate. Therefore, you can only sail through Renmen and have a glimmer of vitality.

There was no way to ride a horse, so I had to lead the horse to the Ghost Gate Peninsula. Without looking at the Ghost Gate Peninsula, I turned to the plank road. Because of this incident, all the ships downstream stopped. The plank road was not very crowded, but relevant officials in Shaanxi Province advised together: "Your Highness, the plank road is located on a dangerous cliff, and there is a surging rapid flow below. Your Highness is a thousand-pound body, no."

"Even if you walk away, it's dangerous. How can these boatmen pull their legs day and night? It's because you officials are dereliction of duty!"

When I see something happening, I feel unhappy and speak with a fire.

Several officials did not dare to say anything. For the sake of management, both sides of this section of the river were under the jurisdiction of Shanzhou. Henan was the prefecture of Shanzhou, and Pinglu County in Hebei. In other words, the entire territory of Sanmen canal transportation is within the jurisdiction of Shanzhou. If you want to rule the responsibility, you cannot rule it.

When they came to the dozens of boatmen, they were afraid that they just pulled the stone ring and kept crying, and even the people came over were not seen. Of course, they were facing the threat of death every day, even Li Wei could not make them grateful.

Li Wei was also helpless and could not cut off the canal transportation because of the death. Then more people would die.

After a few words of comfort, he had no good feelings for the prince or dislike. Some boatmen finally stopped fear and started to talk. There were mainly two types of boatmen who pulled the fiber. One was voluntarily came, with high prices. Some people were desperate because of poverty. Although they knew the danger, they had to do it. However, there were only a few people in this group. Some people starved to death now, but not many. For the sake of the water transportation, the government had to force the people to come and pull the fiber. The court's practice was that one quit a year was twenty days of corvee service, but because of the fiber, the government, and other things, the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait served as labor service for almost 40 or 50 days a year. This was within the scope of tolerance, but most of them were used for labor service. As long as the village was larger, there were hundreds of households.

In recent decades, almost every village has died of people due to fibre pulling. One thing can be proved that Luoyang will not talk about it. Zhengzhou has 600,000 households and more than 300,000 people. Ruzhou has nearly 50,000 households and more than 200,000 people. Bianzhou has nearly 100,000 households and more than 500,000 people. Shanzhou has an area of ​​equivalent to these three prefectures. At one time, because of the important terrain, the Grand Governor's Office was established and the five prefectures of Shaanxi, Ding, Xiong, Han and Gu were under the jurisdiction of only nearly 30,000 households, and the 130,000 people were insufficient. Besides, the proportion was one household in other prefectures, and the population was not included. The proportion was 1 to 5, 6,000, and Shaanxi was only 1 to 4. Even the area was smaller, almost all of Guozhou, which was in the mountainous area, and there were 20,000 households, which were equivalent, and the population was not much different. But what about the area and terrain?

There are also a few criminals serving in the service of the corps and crimes.

These people are unwilling to accept it. Because of poverty, many people are exhausted. The rope was broken just a little bit, and most of them were because of insufficient manpower or unwilling to use force, which caused the ship to be unable to pull up, and even the rapids rush, the ship was backward or overturned, and other boatmen were dragged into the river.

The crash was told one by one, and it became a terrible history of blood and tears.

The governor Liu of Shanzhou whispered: "I also feel that the suffering of the people in the country is, but with the transportation of grain, Shanzhou will continue to suffer."

Speaking of this, even my eyes were wrinkled. In fact, if it was not for the canal transportation, it was close to the Dongdu and sandwiched between the two capitals, it was not all mountainous. In addition to Zhongtiao Mountain and Gushan, there were also many places in plain areas, and many rivers flowed into the yellow area, which was convenient for farming. It was not considered a barren state capital.

But with the transportation of grain in Shaanxi, it can only continue to be hard. The grain and salt and other materials will be transported in a year, which means that there are thousands of ships a year. During the peak period of grain transport, hundreds of ships will travel in a day. It is not even considered passenger ships and other small ships. At the peak, the people who only pull the fibers must have one or two thousand people.

Li Wei did not speak. After listening silently, he came to the Ghost Gate Peninsula and stared at the Piercing Piercing. There were a few lines of big words on it, which were written by Li Shimin here. At that time, there was not much transportation, and the people did not think it was suffering. Li Shimin was shocked by this scene and wrote down the sixteen big words "Looking at the Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing" and looking north at Longmen. He was a vast Yu trace and the vast Changchun. He ordered Wei Zhenglev to engrave it on Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing Piercing.

Standing here, it is clearer that after the water flow of Sanmen converges, it is rushing towards the Pizhu because of the rapid rush. Sanmenxia has never been to Sanmenxia Reservoir in his previous life, so it is probably impossible to see it. It is now three or four meters high. I guess Yuwen Kai has some of it, otherwise it will be even higher. It is also several meters wide, very much like a fang, standing in the shape of a half-moon in the Yellow River.

And it's very steep.

Not to mention that there is no such technology, even if there is one, no matter how many craftsmen want to stand on it, it is very dangerous to stand on it. Besides, even if the upper part can be chiseled, it is still difficult to chisel out the stone pillars under the river. If they are not chiseled into dangerous reefs, they are facing the center of the river. Without coordinates, more ships will be caught.

Wei Hongji said: "Your Highness, this is a stubborn stone and cannot be eradicated. If you want to cure, there are only two ways. One is to find another way and transfer from the shore. You can check here for a few days to see if you can find a road that can be dug. Then set up two warehouses at both ends to transfer."

This is not easy to find. The water flow at both ends of Sanmenxia is still very fast, and not all ships can be parked everywhere. Only like the Renmen Peninsula or the Ghost Peninsula, a platform can be extended for ships to dock. The water flow at this platform cannot be too fast. The platform can be found. If there is an unattainable mountain behind it, it will be sighing. So Chu Lang's actions failed back then.

Li Wei also shook his head: "It is difficult to choose a place to berth. If you can choose it, the transportation loss in this section of the river is immeasurable. You need to build a warehouse and then work harder. Originally, the people of Shanzhou suffered from this, but if they were subject to corvee labor, it would be even more difficult. If they were not subject to corvee labor, the country would need a large amount of expenses every year. It is not a long-term plan. In addition, the number of Sanmen canal transportation is huge. Just building a warehouse can cause a huge expense. (Note)"

Wei Hongji could not refute Li Wei's words. After thinking about it, he said, "Or there is only another way to dig a new river from Renmen Island."

It is impossible to intercept the Yellow River again and avoid this steep place from other places. There are mountains on both sides, including Zhongtiao Mountains extending to Taihang and Wushan reaching Xionger Mountain. Even Yang Guang, a prodigal son, dare not think so.

Therefore, Wei Hongji's second suggestion seems to have become the only option.

In the past, Renmen Peninsula was three mountains. In addition to the main pillar, there were two mountains, both in the north. The northernmost mountain looked like a "l" shape, and the l point was very high. The second mountain next to it was not that high, uneven, like a sickle. If a boat crashed into it, it would not have a good end. However, because the river turned to the southeast, it was not above the mainstream. If you dig a new river from Renmen Island, according to the rushing nature of the water flow, just bypass the main pillar. As long as you don't want to die quickly and intend to sail the ship south, you will bypass the main pillar. The crisis will be eliminated immediately.

Li Wei said: "Go and take a look."

Of course, it is impossible for Li Wei to cross the Ghost Peninsula. The officials who came to Shanzhou were desperately reluctant to let him go and would hug him.

After wandering around, he crossed the upstream and came to the Renmen Peninsula. There were many mosses on it, and blue-brown stones were also exposed below. Wei Hongji asked the stonemason to take out an axe and chisel out a hammer, and chiseled it. After a spark, the stone did not move at all.

Wei Hongji shook his head again and said, "Your Highness, it's still not possible. When you think of opening it, it's at least one thousand feet long. If you open it in small sizes, it won't work if you open it in small sizes. If you want to dig it deep and wide, you can sail in the dry season, it's not suitable for construction with the hardness of this stone."

Several boatmen immediately knelt down and said, "The prince is kind, save us."

He didn't dare to say anything, but he heard that the prince came to find a good solution to manage the Sanmen River, so he was very happy and was very happy to lead the way forward. However, Wei Hongji's words made their joy reach the bottom.

Looking at these miserable boatmen, the ship was floating where they were floating. At the end of August, the shipping was still very nervous. Another boatmen started shouting horns and starting to pull the fiber. The rough and poor mai, as the river breeze drifted, most of the boatmen were malnourished, skinny, dull, and extremely tragic. Li Wei suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "It's better to treat it!"

***: Later, Pei Yaoqing used this method and reported that there were four million people in the world, each person spent a hundred and fifty people to build a cellar, which means that it would cost 200,000 yuan to build a warehouse. In addition, he deliberately chose Wei Hongji. At this time, in terms of civil engineering attainments, Wei Hongji should be the first, faintly above Yan Liben, similar to Yan Lide.
