487 generations of earthquakes
At the beginning of September, the land of Zhao was peaceful, although this year's harvest was not good, and there were many reasons. A large number of laborers have been requisitioned. The old and the young who are left behind can also go to the ground. But this year's year is not good. There is a drought and little rain, and some places have suffered a major drought, and the substitute land is quite good. There was still a little bit of rain, but that didn't change this year's harvest.
Families don't have much food to dig into. I don't know how much King Zhao collects.
Zhao Min of Daidi is worried about how to live in winter.
The sun rises lazily. Zhao Min's village is still very quiet. The peasant women did not cook in the morning, because by this time the crops in the fields had already been harvested. There is no need to cook in the morning. People are starting to revert to the point of two meals a day. Only by saving food can we survive the winter.
Suddenly, the earth began to shake. Zhao Min, who was still sleeping, didn't know what was going on. Their house began to crumble. The beams of the thatched house fell directly, and the adobe house began to collapse. Some of the people who reacted quickly began to run out screaming. I didn't even have any clothes on.
Zhao Min, who was lucky enough to run out, panicked and couldn't feel anything. They had to run desperately. Run away. Perhaps only by running can they feel a little peace in their panicked hearts.
Daidi is not far from Handan. People who wake up early are already feeling dizzy. Some people began to stand or hold on to whatever they could hold onto.
Some of the old people are still experienced. I knew there was an earthquake. And he began to shout.
"There was an earthquake. Run. The old man's shouts didn't respond much, and the people were already stunned. There was simply no time to react everything.
The earthquake slowly weakened. Subsequently, calm began to return. That's when people feel like it's not going to turn around. The earth is stable. That's when we got here. People realized that there was a big earthquake somewhere.
People took to the streets to hide and talk. Reporters from the Qin State thought it was big news and began to ride around on horseback to see where such a big earthquake had occurred. At this time, stirrups began to be imitated and gained a certain popularity. So, horseback riding began to become one of the quickest means of transportation.
It was not only Handan that felt the earthquake, but even Xinzheng felt it. Far away in Xianyang, Qin State. People felt a wave of lightheadedness, and some thought something strange was going on. They went to the doctor for treatment.
Time is ticking. Reporters ran around and found no trace. At noon, people were still talking about earthquakes. And several other countries did not know that it had happened. Time is slowly passing. During this period, King Zhao also sent relevant personnel to inquire. But there was still no news. People are starting to return to their normal lives.
It was late at night. The news was transmitted back by a reporter from the Qin State. A major earthquake occurred in Daiji. This message was provided by Zhao Wang, according to the report that the reporter sent back.
The earth was torn open by gaps several feet wide. Got a house in it, and all the houses collapsed. The village was razed to the ground. Many people are buried in the rubble. Some of those who have escaped are struggling to plank with their hands. Dig by hand. In order to save people.
But after learning the news, he was quickly informed of Li Mu, Wu'anjun, and King Zhao asked Li Mu to quickly send someone to rescue. Li Mu received the king's order and quickly sent someone to notify the nearby army to come to the rescue. In fact, Li Mu had already sent scouts to investigate during the day, but they were not as lucky as the Qin State reporters.
At the same time, the news also spread quickly to Xianyang. Journalists are going to get the first word out. The Taiyuan County of Qin was on guard in case of a surprise attack by Zhao.
The army near Zhao's army received the order and quickly sent personnel to help. September day. The temperature difference between day and night is extremely large. The army left at night, and it didn't arrive in a hurry until dawn, and the reporters who heard the news quickly mobilized people to interview. Prepare a follow-up manuscript for publication.
But when they arrived, it was a mess. Coupled with the cold of the night, some of those who barely escaped were frozen to death, and only a few were curled up like dead people by the fire that had been extinguished early.
"Help. Save people. Officer Zhao Jun reacted first from his stunnedness. So many people fought a cold war and began to save people. But the situation is not very good. Without modern rescue equipment, it was impossible to find out if there were still survivors in those places, so they had to dig piece by piece.
People who have been frozen for a day have been freezing for a long time before someone realizes it, and randomly passes out in a coma. There is no way to pass through the coma. There is no place to place these people. There were no tents, and Zhao Jun could not guarantee their warmth. Zhao Jun was in a hurry, and he didn't bring these burdens at all. Such rescues directly led to the death of some people. Death seems to be normal here.
Until noon. The baggage still hasn't come. Zhao Jun, who was tired for a day, couldn't continue, they waited in place. And the reporters came with even more terrible news at this time. In some mountainous areas, boulders have been shaken down and people have been crushed to death, and the earth has cracked wider than what has been found here.
Knowing what the news was, they still couldn't send anyone, not even their baggage.
Li Mu was more anxious than anyone else, and he sent a wave of people to urge food. Urging the baggage, Li Mu could only send out some tents and food used by the army, and he could only send them as much as possible. for the army is also short of food. Li Mu didn't know the actual situation. This year can be regarded as the most unlucky year for Zhao Guo. The war drained the last bit of Zhao Guo's family funds. This year's grain could not be harvested in full. Precipitation is scarce in many places, and it can be said that Zhao has encountered a major drought. It's a great drought.
Li Mu anxiously asked to meet King Zhao. The king of Zhao was not alive or dead, because some of the ministers, having learned of these circumstances, had already asked him to allocate food to these disaster areas. But how can there be food in Zhao now?
Li Mu communicated with the ministers. Zhao really has no food. Li Mu walked back and forth anxiously in his heart. Suddenly, he thought of Qin's grain futures, grain, which was the only one that had so much grain in Qin. The two countries have just been repaired. The prime minister of the state of Qin uncharacteristically supported the state of Zhao. It is better to turn to the Qin State for help. So, Li Mu immediately repaired the book to Shang Wen and informed Shang Wen of the situation here in detail. Finally, he asked Shang Wen for assistance. Li Mu immediately sent 100,000 people to send this letter to the Qin State in a hurry.
Then, Li Mu put this plan in his heart to King Zhao. Ask King Zhao for permission. After King Zhao learned the news, he shook his head, although the two countries had just been repaired, but. King Zhao can only give it a try.
