Liu Yi asked with a smile: "What is the situation in Yanzhou now, we don't just enter the battlefield with a black eye, we have to wait for the situation to be clear." ”

Xi Zhicai spread out the map with a smile and said: "This time Cao Cao is really miserable, Xuzhou not only didn't get anything, but was directly beaten back to its original form, please see." ”

"This is Dongjun, so far Cao Cao's last base, although I don't know how Cao Cao returned to Dongjun under the noses of Lu Bu and Zhang Miao, but I guess it should be related to the technique of the collective disappearance of the opponent's army that Zilong faced at that time."

"Cao Cao is trapped in Dongjun, if he wants to subdue Yanzhou again, he must go east, and the first thing he faces is Puyang, which should be the big stronghold of Lu Bu and Zhang Miao."

Liu Yi looked at the map and nodded, and suddenly saw a name, Ju Ye, and his eyes shrank.

Juye, Juye, the battle of Juye, this familiar place, I believe it is impossible for those who have read the Three Kingdoms not to know, so, in this way, the natural disaster is coming soon?

Liu Yi suddenly covered his eyes, and actually forgot the most important thing, Liu Yi has only been thinking about how to avoid man-made disasters, but he has ignored the terrible nature of natural disasters, how many strategists are collected, how many soldiers are recruited, and can they stop the power of natural disasters? No one can stop it, only prevention, but unfortunately Liu Yi forgot all about it.

To what extent are natural disasters harmful? In particular, a locust plague before the Battle of Julu can be said to have starved to death of many people, and then a large-scale drought occurred, resulting in Yanzhou, Yuzhou and Xuzhou, these major prefectures, from April to July did not harvest. Grain prices have skyrocketed, 500,000 yuan a piece of millet, 200,000 yuan a piece of beans and wheat, and the people have starved to death in patches. Emperor Liu Xie ordered Shi Houwen to transfer rice and beans from Taicang to make porridge for the victims, but every time the emperor visited, he still saw countless people starving to death on the road. Liu Xie suspected that someone was deducting food from it, so he personally sat in front of the cauldron and watched the cook cook porridge, and sat all day before he found out that someone was greedy, because the food was too little, which was a drop in the bucket and could not save many people at all.

Guo Jia looked at Liu Yi suspiciously, and asked, "Ziang, what's wrong?" Not feeling well? ”

Liu Yi didn't know what to say, but now that the locust plague was less than a month away, he couldn't think about it too much, and said: "I suddenly had a whim, and I calculated that the locust plague is coming." ”

Liu Yi said seriously, his eyes did not dodge in the slightest, looking at the people present, as if he was talking about the facts that were about to happen, not something calculated by the hexagram.

Everyone in the government affairs hall looked at each other and counted a hexagram? The locust plague is coming, and they all want to find out if Liu Yi's brain is burned out, how can he talk such nonsense.

Xi Zhicai said with a smile: "Ziang, don't make trouble, look at the sky, it doesn't look like a locust plague, it is rumored that whenever there is a catastrophe, there will be some anomalies, and now it is obviously normal." ”

Liu Yi shook his head and said: "It's too late when there is a vision, I'm not alarmist, no matter what, this time we will deal with it as if the locust plague is coming, buy more chickens to raise, and those crops that are about to mature will be harvested in advance, and they can be eaten if they are half-baked anyway." ”

When everyone found Liu Yi's expression, they knew that it shouldn't be a joke, and they were not absolutely sure that Liu Yi would not be so strong.

Jian Yong asked in disbelief: "Ziang really calculated that a natural disaster is coming?" It's incredible, isn't it? ”

Liu Yi knew that he had to give them a confidence, and said: "A few days ago, I met an old man, he robbed me of a pheasant to eat, and then clicked on my head, saying that I could predict good luck and evil, I didn't care at first, but at this moment I suddenly had a whim, and then I pinched my fingers and counted, the locust plague is coming, not alarmist." ”

Guo Jia rubbed his forehead helplessly, and said: "Since Ziang has calculated it, let's prepare it, buy more chickens, anyway, we have a future now, if it doesn't happen, it will be regarded as a meal for the soldiers." ”

Jia Xu nodded, and suddenly said, "What about Xuzhou?" ”

Everyone was a little silent, a state is already very financially draining, if you add Xuzhou, I really don't know if it can be arranged.

Liu Yi gritted his teeth and said: "Xuzhou is also ours, and the people there are also people, so we will arrange the places bordering Yanzhou as appropriate, and when the time comes, when Qingzhou gets through the difficulties, we can help Xuzhou." ”

Jia Xu nodded. It can only be like this, although Qingzhou's financial resources are very strong, but two states, how can they be arranged, and they can only focus on one state.

Later, after discussing for a while, Liu Yi really couldn't raise his interest, and soon the time in the government affairs hall was over, and Liu Yi returned home, thinking about those natural disasters all the time, lingering.

When I returned to the house, I just opened the door when I heard a voice: "Husband, you're back, wash up, you're tired." Cai Wenji held Liu Yi, handed over a towel, and greeted Liu Yi with concern, which made Liu Yi a little inexplicable.

Liu Yi saw Cai Wenji, who was blushing, and said with a smile: "Don't be so deliberate, just do whatever you want, this makes me a little unaccustomed, by the way, is the bed packed?" ”

Liu Yi smiled evilly and hugged Cai Wenji in his arms, lowered his head and whispered to Cai Wenji.

Cai Wenji nodded lightly, she was a little unaccustomed to doing this, but those books said that everything should be based on her husband's family and care more about her husband, but Cai Wenji was really uncomfortable.

I was relieved to hear Liu Yi say that there was no need to do this, if it was like this every day in the future, Cai Wenji felt a little too contrived, and her concern was from the heart, so she didn't need to do it.

Liu Yi asked about the sheets, Cai Wenji's face turned red again, and said, "It's cleaned up." ”

Liu Yi smiled and said, "Huh? Where are you hiding? ”

Cai Wenji broke free from Liu Yi's embrace and whispered, "I won't tell you." ”

Liu Yi smiled, didn't care, looked at the sky, it was not early, and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go eat, I'm a little hungry." ”

Cai Wenji nodded lightly, strictly speaking, this is the first meal she has eaten with Liu Yi since she got married, Liu Yi does not have any machismo at the dinner table, and he also picks up dishes for Cai Wenji from time to time, after all, on the first day Cai Wenji came to this house, everything had to be slowly used to.

Cai Wenji felt very happy, and she was very relaxed when eating, especially Liu Yi also served herself food from time to time, this kind of warm gesture made Cai Wenji feel that her decision was really right.

Back in the house, Liu Yi sat on the edge of the bed thinking about today's events, and felt that it was fortunate that Xi Zhi had taken out the map, otherwise it would have been too late when the natural disaster came.

Cai Wenji saw Liu Yi thinking, and asked with a smile: "What is the husband thinking, tell the concubine." The concubine also wants to hear about it. ”

Liu Yi turned around and saw Cai Wenji sitting on the side blinking, and said, "A natural disaster is coming, and this time it may not be smaller than the last big plague." ”

After speaking, she sighed, and when Cai Wenji heard it, she couldn't believe it, and the smile on her face had long since disappeared.

What is the situation of the Great Plague Although Cai Wenji is in Luoyang, he also knows a little bit about it, the dead people of the Great Plague are all over the field, and the Yellow Turban Army Taoism has risen because of this, at that time in the suburbs of the ancient capital Luoyang, looking around, there was a desolate scene everywhere. Once upon a time, as the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was still densely populated and business-traveling. The city is still prosperous, but the outside of the city is desolate, and the dead are commonplace, and Cai Yong still didn't let Cai Wenji go out at that time.

Later, in the face of such a tragic scene, history records that when Cao Cao passed by here, he couldn't help but write down a poem that has been passed down through the ages, which reads, "The white bones are exposed in the wilderness, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles." The people are left behind, and the thought breaks people's intestines". Indeed, this is a true portrayal of the reality of the Eastern Han Dynasty at that time.

That great plague also directly caused a situation in many places where "white bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles".

Liu Yi looked at Cai Wenji suspiciously, and said, "The lady also knows?" I thought you were a lady who didn't go out of the door. ”

Cai Wenji glanced at Liu Yi and said, "I really didn't go out at that time, but my father knew, he said it when he came home at that time, how could I not remember"

Liu Yi said with emotion: "Yes, how can you not know that during that period of time, wars, plagues, natural disasters, and man-made disasters followed, and the people of the Han Dynasty experienced all kinds of tribulations, and countless people died, and Dong Zhuo also moved the capital to Chang'an, burning the Luoyang Palace, and the former Luoyang was reduced to ruins." ”

Liu Yi remembered that there was a serious famine at that time, Gu Yihu sold for 500,000 yuan, and there was a terrifying scene of cannibalism in Chang'an City, and the Luoyang palace had already become a ruin in the war, and the people had no place to live, so they had to live against the wall, often without food for several days, and some officials even starved to death.

In fact, in this chaotic political situation, it is the common people who suffer the most. In fact, since Emperor An, due to the corruption of the court officials, the government has levied and extorted violently; Coupled with the long-term use of troops abroad and the huge amount of money consumed, all these heavy burdens have fallen on the people. At the same time, it is even more unfortunate that in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were various serious natural disasters, so that there was a serious situation of "empty fields, empty courts, and empty warehouses". A large number of peasants were in exile, starving all over the wilderness, and even Luoyang, the capital division, was the dead pillowing on the road. What was especially terrifying was that the unprecedented plague dealt a fatal blow to the already weak dynasty. Long before the Eastern Han Dynasty, plagues occurred in all dynasties. Because China is a monsoon country, located at the junction of the Pacific Ocean and Eurasia, the temperature in winter and summer is uneven, and the climate changes greatly, and this special natural environment is also prone to disease disasters. According to the records left by the ancients over thousands of years, many types of plagues, such as smallpox, plague, diphtheria, scarlet fever, cholera, typhus, typhoid, lung disease, leprosy, malaria, and schistoriasis, have hit the continent. On the other hand, because the ancients had a limited understanding of diseases, they often did not distinguish the specific types of plagues. According to the interpretation of the ancients, the so-called epidemic refers to "all the people are sick", which means that all diseases that can be transmitted are commonly called "epidemics". As for "plague", it refers to a virulent infectious disease, which can infect livestock and humans. Based on this, infectious diseases and epidemics were commonly referred to as "plagues" in ancient China.

Cai Wenji asked worriedly: "How does Husband know that a natural disaster is coming, is it another plague, will there be many deaths this time?" ”

Cai Wenji said and hugged Liu Yi tightly, it was really when Huangfu Song sent her out of Luoyang, it was too impressive, flames, ashes, and corpses were all over the field.

Liu Yi patted Cai Wenji on the back and said, "It's not a plague, it's a locust plague, and it's also a terrible natural disaster." ”

Cai Wenji said helplessly: "Is there no way? ”

Cai Wenji is not the kind of woman who doesn't understand anything, and she also knows the harm of the locust plague, where the locusts pass, there is no green at all, and I am afraid that many people will starve to death by then, so she will ask if there is a way to solve it.

Liu Yi shook his head and said, "We can only try our best to reduce some losses in Qingzhou and Xuzhou, and now we don't have the ability to save the people of the world." ”

Cai Wenji nodded, yes, there are so many princes in the world, who will listen to Qingzhou, and then talk about natural disasters, who will believe it, Cai Wenji will believe it if she believes in Liu Yi, will everyone in the world believe Liu Yi? Impossible.

Besides, even if you believe it, it's useless, after all, there are not many things that can be prevented by natural disasters, especially locust plagues, which need chickens to deal with, Liu Yi can only try his best to buy as many chickens as possible, but there are so many of them, and it is impossible to get too many chickens in a short period of time.

Liu Yi said with a smile: "You go to sleep first, I'll sit for a while and go to sleep." ”

Cai Wenji nodded, knowing that now was not the time to disturb Liu Yi.

Liu Yi sighed, thinking about what he could do, natural disasters to resist, now what Liu Yi can do is to recall the natural disasters in the next period of time, and try his best to avoid losses, otherwise, Qingzhou has not yet started to fight, and it has already lost its ability to fight, what else to talk about saving the people of the world.

There is a big drought after the locust plague, which is very clear, but the drought is not terrible for Qingzhou, as early as a long time ago, Liu Yi let people dig ditches and divert water for irrigation, and now Qingzhou's water conservancy can be said to be very complete, plus Qingzhou has its back to the sea, so there is no need to worry about the problem of drought.

Liu Yi is really worried about the plague, after the locusts, there will be a great drought, Yanzhou is still at war, it is estimated that the time will really be all over the field, the starvation and thirst will definitely be countless, then there will be no plague, I remember that the history records of Yanzhou there was a plague, at that time, the Eastern Han Dynasty magistrates at all levels continued to receive a large number of case reports, and some villages even almost all died. The magistrate did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly reported these situations to the imperial court. But to their disappointment, the court was in a state of corruption and chaos, and had no time to care about the lives of the common people. As a result, the scope of the plague was further expanded due to the lack of effective control. The Great Plague, which was commonly known as "typhoid fever" at the time. According to relevant historical records, the main symptoms of this disease are: transmitted by animals, horses, cattle and sheep as the host of the virus, the onset of the disease is acute, the mortality rate is very high, the people often have high fever and wheezing, and die of exhaustion, and some people have blood spots and bruises. In the early days of the plague, faced with the terrible plague, people were almost helpless and could only wait for death in despair.

There is no isolation, no prevention and control, once the plague occurs, Liu Yi can't believe what the scene will be, I am afraid that it will be another big disaster at that time, especially if the plague occurs in Yanzhou, then it will be a big problem.

What is Yanzhou? In the core of the Central Plains, once a plague breaks out, will the people stay where they are? They will flee in all directions, fleeing to other states, and the plague will spread faster than you can imagine, and no one will be able to stop it.

The Three Kingdoms period is indeed a gathering of heroes, but the population of the Three Kingdoms period has shrunk sharply and almost no one pays attention to it, and in the decades at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the great plague continued, and the number of deaths was simply impossible to count, which is the reason for the sharp decline in the population of the Three Kingdoms, in just 30 years at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were 12 times of the national plague that was clearly recorded. During the plague epidemic, families were ruined and people died, and the consequences were very tragic.

Liu Yi shook his head, don't think about that, everything is still in time, you can't wait and see anymore, as long as the disaster is controlled in Yanzhou, everything will be solved, the locust plague and drought don't matter, it's a big deal that Qingzhou opens a warehouse and releases grain, at least so many people will not die, as long as there are not many dead people and can be dealt with, the plague will not happen, so it is decided, go to the government affairs hall tomorrow and discuss the matter of sending troops with them.

Liu Yi breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there is a solution, I am afraid that it is a dead knot, knowing that it happens but there is no way to stop it, this is the most uncomfortable, the locust plague and drought will come, as long as the plague does not occur, Liu Yi is sure to control the disaster to a minimum.

Undressed, drilled into the quilt, and let Cai Wenji sleep, in fact, Cai Wenji had been looking at Liu Yi with her eyes open, lying on the bed and not asleep, and now seeing Liu Yi undressing, she hurriedly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Liu Yi covered the quilt and said: "Still pretending to be asleep, the eyelashes of people who are asleep will not tremble, why don't you sleep." ”

Cai Wenji opened her eyes, drilled into Liu Yi's arms, didn't speak, and buried her head in Liu Yi's arms.

Liu Yi smiled and said in Cai Wenji's ear: "You sent it to the door yourself, don't blame me." ”

Cai Wenji's ears were red, but she still didn't speak, just like that, she looked like she was picking and planting, Liu Yi's index finger moved, the beauty was in her arms, and her blood was strong, how could Liu Yi stand it.

lifted the cup, covered his head, only heard Cai Wenji's coquettish voice, followed by the voice of a child, everything returned to calm, hugged each other and fell asleep.
