Just as she was about to explain the plan in detail to Xie Ruiyuan and Yang Zhijin, Mengyue listened to their conversation and finally felt that something was wrong.
Drawings, and more drawings.
Before building the reservoir, she called a meeting of seven village heads and took out a map of Qingshan Town.
She still clearly remembered that when the seven village chiefs saw the blueprint, their eyes widened, and they couldn't believe what they saw.
At the time, she didn't think much of it. She just thought it was just a drawing, not something very precious, so she didn't take it too seriously.
Instead, he asked several village chiefs to focus their attention on the mountain behind Xinghua Village, and told them that a reservoir should be built there and what should be done next.
But now she took out a map of Qingshan Prefecture, which shocked Xie Ruiyuan and Yang Zhijin again.
What's there to understand? It seems there's something wrong with the map she drew.
But it can't be said that there is a problem. It's just that when she drew the map, she used the sketching skills mastered by later generations.
Regardless of mountains, rivers, villages, or towns, all are reduced in size according to a certain ratio, so that all the undulating terrain can be clearly depicted.
The key is that she also used plants and petals to mix colors, making the drawings colorful, which is clearer at first glance.
She knew that the maps of this era were not simple compared to those of later generations, but were too crude.
You should know that a river is a line, and the small triangles are mountains and rivers. If you draw a map like this, the disadvantages on the battlefield will not be too obvious.
"Miss...Miss, who drew this picture?"
"I."
"Miss, are you kidding?"
"Zhi Jin, what are you talking about? How can you doubt A Yue?"
"Ruiyuan, it's not that I doubt you, Miss. It's just that this blueprint is too important, and you don't know the whole story."
Xie Ruiyuan certainly knew that since ancient times, the battle situation during marches and battles had always changed rapidly, and whether or not one could achieve victory in the entire battle was closely related to the news brought by the scouts.
The scouts in his army had all undergone rigorous training, but even so, the information they brought back was not as clear as on this map.
If he knew the battlefields of both sides in advance during his march deployment, and he had detailed blueprints in his hands, he could arrange his troops on the battlefield in advance and achieve the greatest victory at the lowest cost.
But even if he knew the importance of the drawings, he would not force Mengyue as long as she was unwilling.
Yang Zhijin looked at Xie Ruiyuan's expression and of course knew what he was thinking, but he really didn't want to give up, so he said to Mengyue.
"Miss, this is the first time I've seen this kind of map since I was a child. If this kind of map were used in the military, the general could deploy in advance and reduce our casualties."
"Um."
Mengyue took out this map of Qingshan Prefecture in order to determine where to dig the river and where to build the reservoir, not to discuss the blueprint.
