文化小故事 郑国渠兴建于战国晚期，位于陕西关中地区，与四川都(dū)江(jiāng)堰(yàn)、广西灵(líng)渠(qú)并称中国古代三大水利工程。 The Zhengguo Canal, Zhengguoqu or Chengkuo Canal, named after its designer, Zheng Guo, is a large canal located in Shaanxi province, China. The canal irrigates the Guanzhong plain, north of Xi’an. Together with the Dujiangyan Irrigation System and Lingqu Canal, it is one of the three biggest water conservation projects before the Qin dynasty in ancient China. The canal connects the Jing and Luo rivers, northern tributaries of the Wei River.
据介绍，公元前246年，韩国水工郑国游说秦王修建灌溉水渠，本意是为削弱秦国人民的战斗力，结果却成为秦国强盛的助力。秦历时十年、耗10万人力终修成郑国渠，可实现关中腹地110余万亩农田的灌溉。建成6年后，关中平原就成为大粮仓。建成15年后，秦建立了第一个中央集权制的封建国家。 Han heard that Qin was fond of embarking on enterprises, so with the intention of causing its energies to be dissipated and in order to prevent it from making an attack to the east, it accordingly dispatched a water engineer named Zheng Guo to give controversial advice to Qin by making it excavate a canal from the Jing River west of Mount Zhong as far as Hukou, from where it was to go east along the Northern Mountains and flow into the Luo. It would be more than 300 li long, and the intention would be to use it to irrigate the fields.
