Forever Solidifying the Mountains and Rivers of Han Dynasty

The story is based on a parallel and fictional story of the late Han Dynasty. After a hundred years of prosperity, the foundation has been exhausted, and the dynasty has completely fallen into disarray: the imperial power is declining, the clan is weak, the state and pastoral institutions are divided, the princes are in power, surrounded by border bandits and invaded every year, and there are frequent natural disasters, rivers and floods, corrupt officials, and millions of refugees. Everyone knows that the Han Dynasty is about to fall, there are no loyal ministers in the temples, there are no powerful troops at the borders, there is no way out in the countryside, and killings have become the norm in troubled times. Different from the traditional troubled times that emphasize power and war, the core root cause of the troubled times in this world lies in the complete decay of the foundation of civilization: weakened officialdom, blocked water transportation, disrepair of water conservancy, stagnant iron smelting, empty grain reserves, chaotic tax system, and total collapse of the people's livelihood system. Military conquests can only determine temporary victory or defeat. Only by rebuilding infrastructure, regulating the system, and nourishing people's livelihood can we truly end the troubled times and stabilize the world.
