Chapter 229 Difficulties in relocation

After reaching a consensus, all that needs to be considered are some details.

No one dares to say that there is no eventuality, but we can make preparations for the eventuality, not to mention the need to transport so many books.

Fei Qian said: "The quantity of this transfer is quite large, so it is not suitable to transport them all at once. Some preparations need to be made..."

Books are not gold or silver, so ordinary bandits and thieves have little interest in such things. On the contrary, the so-called rural tyrants and nobles are eager for them.

In Luoyang, under Cai Yong's reputation, most nobles would not take action because it is not worthwhile. After all, Cai Yong has gained a terrifying reputation just for his work on the Xi Ping Stone Scripture, and he has been teaching at Taixue for many years. , there are many students studying in Taixue who support the foundation. If they take action and are exposed, it will not only increase the family’s foundation by finding books, but destroy the family’s reputation for generations...

In comparison, the danger in Hedong and Pingyang County is relatively high.

Speaking of Hedong County alone, the relationship between Cai Yong and Hedong Wei family was quite good. However, since Cai Yan was divorced, although the two families were not regarded as enemies, the relationship was quite bad, and Cai Yan's dowry at that time was even worse. There are quite a few books about the Wei family, but the Wei family has not even mentioned a word about it. With such a criminal record, it is naturally impossible to expect the Wei family to be able to open the door to convenience, sudden kindness and the like.

And if the one-time transportation quantity is large, it is inevitable that some people will get hot-headed and take risks.

Pingyang County is also on the verge of the border. If someone uses the name of Qiang Hu to rob openly, even if they are discovered later, it can be presumed that they bought it back from the Qiang Hu or robbed it...

Therefore, after crossing Hedong County, the cooperation of Cui Jun, the governor of Xihe, was needed. Cui Jun, the governor of Xihe, only needed to send troops across the border in the name of raising troops to respond to the rebellion against Dong, and then it was basically safe.

Because Cui Jun's army also needs to resist the Xianbei and Qianghu who are marching south, and because it delays the country's defense at this time, it cannot go too deep into the Sili area. At most, it can only reach Pingyang County, otherwise one person will be ten thousand. Once Xianbei went south, it was troublesome to return to the army. Another reason is that the more you go into Sili, the more money and food you will consume on the road...

The route across the river could have taken the ferry at Yanjin or Xiaopingjin, but in order to give Dong Zhuo in Luoyang the illusion of migrating to Chang'an, he had to pass through Mianchi, where some Dong Zhuo's troops were still stationed, and then divert, which was safer. Otherwise, except for Luoyang, they would turn northward, and Mianchi is not very far from Luoyang. There are often troops traveling between them, so it would be troublesome to be discovered.

Moreover, there is another advantage from Luoyang to Mianchi. In order to speed up the process of moving the capital in the early stage, Dong Zhuo's army would definitely give great encouragement and support to people like Cai Yong who took the initiative to cooperate with the migration. Therefore, this section of the journey is The risk is the smallest, because Dong Zhuo's army is even willing to help take care of it, maybe it just needs a little favor...

Among the entire route, the only place where the risk factor is relatively high and where problems are more likely to occur is the section north of Mianchi to Hedong County.

Therefore, the mode of transportation can only be batch transportation, and it must be done in batches with skill.

The vast majority of Cai Yong's collection of books is mainly composed of tablets, so a split method can be adopted for multiple batches of transportation. In this way, even if a certain batch of transported tablets is taken away, it will not be completed into a volume. It has no effect.

In this way, each batch of transported tablets is equivalent to fragments, and the quantity is not very large, which greatly reduces the appeal to nobles and powerful people. For example, the value of 10,000 left-footed shoes Far less valuable than a thousand pairs of shoes with both left and right feet...

As long as the disassembled tablets are numbered and then assembled according to the numbers after arriving in Xihe, it will be a complete tablet again.

Although Cai Yong felt that the method of tearing apart the books was a bit distressing, he thought that it would be better than having the whole book taken away, so after thinking again and again, he nodded and said, "Zi Yuan's method is unique and can be tried. .”

Cui Hou also said: "In this way, you should be able to transport things calmly." Cui Hou is also a sensible person. After listening to Fei Qian's method, you will understand. It is not that splitting batches has not been used before, but that it has not been used yet. People use it to transport letters...

One reason is that other people cannot have such a large collection of books like Cai Yong. If there are dozens of books or hundreds of volumes, if they can be pulled by one carriage, do they need to be divided?

Another reason is that people in the Han Dynasty respected and cherished books very much. Each volume of slips was like a treasure. How could anyone treat the slips as a tool like Fei Qian, let alone dare to dismantle the weft knitting? Numbered transportation is carried out...

Fei Qian's side has initially solved the problem, but Li Ru's side seems a little tricky.

After the proposal to move the capital was raised, many officials in Luoyang, especially those at the bottom, did not say anything but resigned as a sign of protest, causing political affairs to suddenly become a little troublesome.

Li Ru naturally knows the reason for the problem here...

The problem is that although there are many people in Xiliang, military generals make up the majority.

There is no problem in letting these big-head soldiers march and fight. Sometimes even if they encounter some small difficulties or something, there is no need to report them to Li Ru. These old army soldiers can do a good job, but they have to When these big bosses come to assist in the entire capital relocation operation, they can only provide some military assistance at most. As for the civil affairs, such as sorting out documents and summarizing data, Li Ru can only take the lead by himself. coming!

What's more, the Heluo nobles were originally unwilling to move the capital this time. Therefore, if these noble officials were allowed to assist in the operation, there would only be one result. The capital relocation would be delayed as long as possible, and it would probably take several years. Endless...

The most critical thing about moving the capital this time is to seize time. It will take several years to complete. So what is the strategic significance?

In the work of relocating the capital, the most important aspects are nothing more than two aspects, one is wealth, and the other is population. If we compare the two, population is more important.

However, population matters are the most complicated and involve the most...

The most fundamental reason is that the gentry in the countryside of the Han Dynasty powerfully annexed land, and coupled with the active self-cultivating farmers, they have become deformed monsters that have grown up in the countryside. If you want to relocate the population in the land of Heluo, you will directly face These country magnates.

And the only way to deal with these rural tyrants nestled in large and small forts is to break the turtle shells that they think are hard...

But it is not difficult to knock off the turtle shell, but it is not a simple matter to transport the population inside the turtle shell to Chang'an...
