NOVEL WEB Chapter 112
Half a month later, Ji County had already begun to expand, and Zhang Fu had thought of something new. If they produced a large number of them, the aristocratic family would most likely be ruined.
Of course, with their foundation, only their reputation and interests would be damaged, and other aspects might still survive.
"Old Zhang, take a look at this. This is the papermaking and movable type printing that I modified. You arrange people to study it first and then make it." Zhang Fu handed two pieces of paper to Zhang Yajiu, on which were recorded two technologies.
"This is a good thing for the benefit of the people of the world. Once this is done, we can set up our own academy and let everyone in the world have books to read!" Zhang Fu said with a smile.
Aristocratic family, aristocratic family, letting Ding Yuan, Lu Zhi, and Zhu Jun deal with themselves is definitely the work of the aristocratic family. The idiot He Jin would definitely not be able to think of such a strategy.
As for the eunuch party, it is probably impossible to release Lu Zhi, and none of these three people are from the eunuch party faction, so it is even more impossible to arrange it like this.
Let's not talk about whether they will be defeated by the Yellow Turban Army in the future. Just mastering the resources of the three continents will definitely make the eunuch party jealous.
"This is great, sir, you are really a saint!" Zhang Yajiu said excitedly.
"Haha, Lao Zhang, don't say that, I also want everyone to read and understand, so that we can better develop our country." Zhang Fu waved his hand and said.
"Don't worry, sir, I will definitely study these two technologies thoroughly as soon as possible and put them into practice!" Zhang Yajiu said excitedly.
Just like Cai Lun, a eunuch should have lived a lifetime without reputation, but just because he invented Cai Hou paper, didn't he go down in history?
Although the papermaking and printing techniques were all the lord's ideas, after his hands, future generations will definitely mention him, Zhang Yajiu, and the craftsmen in charge of this matter.
"Well, thank you Lao Zhang for your hard work. You go down first." Zhang Fu nodded and said.
After Zhang Yajiu left, Zhang Fu began to think about the next plan.
He knew that if he wanted to completely change the pattern of this era, it was far from enough to rely solely on papermaking and movable type printing.
He must have more innovations and breakthroughs to make this world a better place.
......
"Lord, in fact, in the current situation, the tribes on the grassland have been frightened by the Lord in Yanmen County before, and it is impossible for them to invade again in a short time, unless it is a matter of life and death."
"So now that the Han has declared war on us, it is better for us to take the initiative and conquer Jizhou first. In this way, the initiative is in our hands!"
After careful consideration, Xi Zhicai finally made up his mind to report the matter to the Lord, but he himself was not sure whether he could successfully persuade the Lord to change the current situation.
After all, Jia Xu's deployment on the border of Youzhou was very stable, and no matter how the enemy attacked, it was difficult to break through the defense line.
Gao Chong, Yang Zaixing, Li Cunxiao and other fierce generals were arranged by Jia Xu to Dai County, Zhuo County and Yuyang County respectively, while Guangyang County was guarded by the lord himself.
Unless the other party is stupid, they will never be stupid enough to attack Guangyang County first, which is purely seeking death.
"No, absolutely not!" Guo Jia stood up and said firmly: "Now the layout has been made. If we take the initiative to attack, as the lord said, our defense line will be stretched. Although we have many fierce generals, they cannot change the entire battle situation by themselves. You know, fierce generals are only used to deter the enemy, not the key factor in determining victory or defeat."
He paused and continued: "Even a peerless fierce general like Xiang Yu, the King of Western Chu, failed to turn the tide of the battle by his own strength in the end, otherwise how could he end up committing suicide by slashing his throat in the Wujiang River?"
Guo Jia's words resonated with everyone present, and everyone nodded in agreement.
Indeed, the outcome of a war cannot be determined by one or two powerful generals, but requires comprehensive consideration of various factors and strategic deployment.
At this time, Xi Zhicai, who had been silent all the time, suddenly stood up and prepared to refute Guo Jia's point of view.
He believed that, given the current situation, taking the initiative to attack was the most advantageous choice.
Because at this time the Yellow Turban Army was at its peak, with strong soldiers and high morale, and was fully capable of taking the initiative to attack Yuan Shao.
However, before Xi Zhicai could speak, Guo Jia interrupted him and continued to explain his reasons.
"My lord, now is a good time for us to defend and counterattack. If we take the initiative to attack, it will not only prolong the front line, but also may fall into the encirclement of the Han Dynasty. In addition, the strength of the Han Dynasty is still strong. Ding Yuan, Lu Zhi, and Zhu Jun of the Han Dynasty are all good."If we take the initiative to attack, it will definitely lead to a fierce battle." Guo Jia analyzed calmly.
Hearing this, Xi Zhicai frowned. He knew that what Guo Jia said made sense, but he still felt that taking the initiative to attack would bring greater advantages to the Yellow Turban Army.
After all, the Yellow Turban Army's army was in high spirits at this time. If they could take advantage of the situation to attack, they might be able to defeat the Han Dynasty in one fell swoop.
However, Guo Jia disagreed. He pointed out that wars cannot be won simply by relying on military strength and fierce generals, but requires comprehensive consideration of various factors.
At present, Jia Xu has built defensive fortifications in the three counties, which is an important guarantee for their victory. If they take the initiative to attack, it is likely that all their efforts will be wasted.
Finally, Guo Jia concluded: "My lord, we should adhere to the strategy of defensive counterattack, take advantage of terrain and tactics, and gradually consume their strength. This is the only way to ensure our victory and avoid unnecessary losses. Please think twice, my lord! "After saying that, he bowed respectfully to Zhang Fu to show his determination.
Zhang Fu smiled and said firmly: "Okay, okay, we are not in a hurry to win or lose now. We must store grain, build high walls, and slowly claim the throne!"
These are all things he must do now. Store grain means promoting the three high-yield grain varieties, build high walls means expanding Ji County, and slowly claim the throne means proclaiming himself king after the expansion of Ji County and raising the banner of anti-king.
After hearing this, Xi Zhicai showed a trace of helplessness on his face, and finally nodded to show his agreement. After all, the reality was in front of him, and he could only accept this result temporarily.
And this strategy has been implemented from the beginning, but at the beginning it was just storing grain, and only recently it was added to build high walls and slowly claim the throne.
"Go down first, just do your own things, it's impossible for them to attack for a while. "Zhang Fu knew Lu Zhi well. He was not an impatient person.
Zhu Jun and Ding Yuan could not influence Lu Zhi's thoughts. Since Lu Zhi was the governor of Jizhou, it meant that Lu Zhi was most likely the leader, and Zhu Jun and Ding Yuan were at most assistants.
