Chapter 568: The Strategic Core of the Anti-Locust Army

In the inner hall of the transfer department, he knew that Zhang Miancheng's temper would go to Lao Chang and them, so Gao Fangping ordered in advance, Fan Ziyi and they would invite them in if they came. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

At present, Tong Guan, Fan Ziyi, Chang Wei, and all the giants of Jiangnan East Road have already gathered in the inner hall, and they all looked at Gao Fangping with bad intentions.

Fan Ziyi didn't speak for the time being because he had been coughing, and Old Fan's health seemed to be getting worse and worse.

After Chang Wei received Zhang Miancheng and Zhao Ding's report on the speculation of the locust plague, Lao Chang couldn't accept it for a while, and was angrily scolding Gao Fangping, and he had been scolding for a while.

What to say about his attitude, he seems to think that the locust plague is caused by Gao Fangping.

"Tong Jingluo, why don't you tell them why you can't report this." Gao Fangping Road.

was named by the Great Demon King, Tong Guan felt flattered and embarrassed.

Flattered because he has not had a voice for too long, and now he is pushed out as a smart person. The embarrassment is due to the sensitivity and political implications of what is about to be said. Since working with Gao Fangping, Tong Guan has been a little disheartened, feeling that politics is too dangerous, as a military general and eunuch, he no longer wants to ask about politics, just lead the troops.

"Hurry up." Gao Fangping urged.

So Chang Wei closed his mouth and turned to look at Tong Guan.

Tong Guan hesitated for a moment, so he had to open his voice: "The meaning of the Ming Mansion is obvious, in all dynasties, disasters have been said to be God's punishment for human beings, which means that the virtue of the Son of Heaven is insufficient. So ......"

Tong Guan stopped at this point.

Fan Ziyi pouted, read his beard and said: "Indeed, since the history of mankind, there will always be such a saying, at least even in our dynasty, there will still be most people who think so." In the previous flood, there were already some such remarks, one said that the official family was not virtuous, and the other said that the official family was far away and the ministers were close to the villain, and appointed a demon king like Gao Fangping in Jiangzhou, so God punished Jiangnan with floods. If there are successive disasters this time, the 'heavenly punishment charges' of the official family and Xiao Gao Xianggong will almost be confirmed. Therefore, at a time when the opposition is particularly loud, it is enough to cause political instability, and it is inevitable that the officials will issue an edict against themselves, and in addition to the collateral damage, it is almost impossible for Xiao Gao Xianggong to resign to avoid suspicion. More seriously, whenever there is a natural disaster, one of the most significant 'peaceful features' in our dynasty is to strike the prime minister, so in this way, Xiao Gao is the uncle of the public to exclude the public...... Without further ado, the consequences can be severe. ”

Chang Wei didn't even give Fan Ziyi face this time, and scolded angrily: "Even so, I don't allow you to deceive like this, the old man is not afraid of taking responsibility and throwing the blame, in fact, I didn't know that the locust plague would happen, and Xiao Gao said that the old man believed it, if it was really a disaster in Jiangnan, the old man was of course responsible as the main official in Jiangnan, but he couldn't deceive him." ”

Gao Fangping narrowed his eyes, a little bit wanted to do something to Lao Chang.

Khan, Tong Guan is a martial artist, and at a glance, he knew that the body of this bad boy was about to attack, so he hurriedly changed his position, separated him from Lao Chang and said: "Several adults are calm and calm, don't talk too aggressively, talk well." ”

Gao Fangping was a little embarrassed, he had already looked at the angle, and was going to punch Lao Chang's head, but now he could only move his mouth without moving, "Chang Gong, the key point is that what is the use of you reporting to the imperial court?" Will the imperial court cast spells to kill insects, or will it send us a demon path to repel the locust plague? ”

"That's what I said, but ......" Lao Chang couldn't help but prune, reading his beard, but he didn't say the rest of the words.

Fan Ziyi was happy, which showed that their dispute was over. Chang Wei means that as long as what he said below makes sense, it will be feasible not to report it for the time being.

"Then please tell me about it, how to deal with it this time?" Tong Guan hugged his fist and asked for advice.

"Calculate my wit and judge in advance. Then there is not enough army of locusts for people to catch, and at this time only attentive children, as well as hens that are the nemesis of insects, can find the most eggs and larvae. So I passed on the decree, and the whole Jiangnan East Road area began to close its doors and let the chickens go. Gao Fangping said.

"Chickens?" Lao Chang and Fan Ziyi sprayed each other on each other's faces with a sip of tea.

"Isn't it funny, I don't think it's for Mao? It is to herd chickens, just like herding cows and cows, each child is tied to three or five chickens to herd. Adults continue to grasp the birth. All the children over the age of six were organized, and the young backbone headed by Liang Hongyu served as the command structure, and there were organized and orderly, and they were all over the mountains to put chickens for me, eat a batch of them, drag them back for the chickens to digest, and then change them to the field. Gao Fangping knocked on the table and said: "Three shifts, to build public housing like their fathers, I don't know if people will be able to win the sky, but as long as you work hard, it is better to do than not to do it." Now that the weather and the soil and water environment are like this, if you can't control the growth of the first wave of larvae, none of you know what the growth of the vertical means is, and at some point the whole sky can be covered by locusts. ”

Fan Ziyi and Lao Chang looked at each other, a little frightened. Although the army that kills people in Jiangzhou is insufficient, the chicken army that fights against the Zerg is thanks to the development of the Great Demon King, and the size of the chicken group is really not small now.

Everyone present understands that if this matter is placed under the rule of other people, it is a fantasy, but under Gao Fangping's rule, it is indeed possible, thanks to the absorption of a very large number of displaced people, Jiangzhou is now nearly 950,000 people, and thanks to the existence of the Youth Army, the children of Jiangzhou will be more efficient, organized, disciplined, and indeed able to organize themselves than anywhere, and treat this incident as if it were a war.

So the few people who were thinking about it began to nod frequently.

After receiving the initial recognition, Gao Fangping continued: "The anti-locust campaign is divided into two stages, and the main battle force that was interrupted at the beginning was the chicken army of our Dajiangzhou and the youth army. They will continue to fight for nearly a month, and the purpose of the operation is to cut off the population base of the locust army as much as possible, and effectively reduce the strength of future adults. So by the middle of July, the adults will still be plagued and ferocious. But the advantage is that after being blocked by the Chicken Army and the Young Army, the Adult Army will be a wave, and without an effective follow-up force replenishment, it will be easy to confront and suppress, and the disaster will not be extended to next year. ”

"Then please ask the Ming Mansion for guidance, when you reach the middle of July, how to fight the adults?" Fan Ziyi asked.

Gao Fangping said: "That is the second stage of the anti-locust campaign. All adults stop producing, and the adults are also fighting against the tide at the end of the crossbow, and the adults are large and unresponsive, so it is not difficult to catch. At that time, as long as I passed on the decree and tried to catch locusts, locusts for two pennies and one pound, and the state government paid for the purchase of locusts, and it was a matter of everyone's survival, then I believe that this battle was won and the losses could be controlled. Don't be pessimistic, it's impossible to put an end to losses, in fact I like to be in control. ”

Following Ju Jing beside him, he nodded and said, "Control is king." ”

"Two pennies and a pound of locusts, are you crazy? What are you doing with it, the old man is worried that all the poor and crazy Jiangnan people will get all the locusts and sell them to the government, and it is really good now that the government is already in serious debt? Lao Chang exclaimed.

"Do you love locusts?" Tong Guan was also shocked.

Gao Fangping said with a smile: "Sell it here, in short, since you are worried, the government does not want me, when the time comes, I will privately pay for locusts, two pennies and a pound of Tongsuo, how much you want." The government should not go back on it. ”

"No regrets, no regrets, Ming Fu is willing to pay money to fight disasters, ambitious, benevolent invincible, so I can rest assured." Fan Ziyi and Lao Chang plus Tong Guan, the three guys hurriedly set the tone together.

"No, the battle front is so unified, so this war state on Jiangnan East Road needs to continue until next year, and none of you can stop me. I'm optimistic about you. Gao Fangping pointed at them with both hands and said......

In fact, it is impossible to hide the locust plague from the imperial court, and in order to fight against the locust plague, it is necessary to launch a national war within Jiangnan again and participate in the fight against the locust army. Since the whole people are in war, the pen sticks that jump up and down in Hu City are not bragging, and the articles will be written in Beijing when they are written.

Gao Fangping didn't want to hide it from the imperial court, but he didn't want to cause too much concern to the imperial court from the beginning. If the government reports natural disasters for two consecutive years, it will be a bit chaotic.

There will definitely be a person with the post of prime minister stationed in the "judgment of Jiangnan affairs" and blindly command and seize power. Now that the opposition is so loud, after the locust plague, the elders who "sentenced Jiangnan" will basically not go back, and Gao Fangping will have no place.

So I really stabbed it, the elder who was most likely to be stationed in Jiangnan to "supervise the war" was Zhang Shuye, and afterwards he was beaten with a beating, Zhang Shuye left Zhongshu, and Gao Fangping returned to the Ministry of Officials with the rank of scattered official to wait for reemployment.

The purpose of Gao Fangping's core meeting was to use disaster resistance as a gimmick to convince them not to be stubborn. Give Jiangnan East Road a sufficient buffer time, and then go all out to fight the disaster without interference, so that the folk rumors will reach the imperial court first, although it will also cause panic, but after all, rumors are just rumors, as long as it is not the official text of the government, it will only be speculation for the time being, and will not lead to major political decisions.

At that time, if nothing else, the anti-locust army campaign had already reached the second stage of the white-hot period, and at that time, it was possible to control the losses, and then Jiangnan East Road was reported as a "normal loss event" in the official language, rather than a sudden natural disaster. That's the best way to deal with it politically.

Zhao Ji, Zhang Shuye, and Gao Fangping will have much less pressure.

Of course, the core problem is still that since it is a battle, it must be won. If you win, everything is negotiable, and if you lose, you will be an egg, even the emperor will definitely be taught to be a man by them......
