Chapter 342: Be Prepared
The people finally left the city, but new problems followed.
After all, the Qianyi at this time is no longer the Qianyi when the Qin people just came from Inuqiu, and there are at least twenty or thirty thousand people and troops in Qianyi City at this time.
It turns out that when you are in the city, you don't have to worry about food, drink, and so on. Now that they are all outside the city, what should they do with what they eat, drink, and use?
That night, Yingkang called Sima Boyu, Si Nong Yingzhao, He Youshou, Chen Xing, Zhang Cheng and several other commanders to his tent.
It turned out that when he was in Qianyi City, Yingkang had his own mansion, and his wife and children lived in other places, which did not affect him and his subordinates to discuss things at all.
Now that everyone has moved outside the city, although Yingkang is a doctor of Qianyi, he only has one tent, and even if he discusses things, there is no way to avoid Ruoxi and Yingyi.
But it's okay, by the way, let the child feel the scene of his father discussing with others in advance, and lead the Qin people to fight in the east and west in the future!
After everyone sat down, Ying Kang said: "You have also seen that this earthquake is very strong, and now although we have moved the people out of the city, according to my estimate, this earthquake will not stop for a while and a half, so we must be prepared to live outside the city for a long time." ”
When Zhao Boyu heard this, he immediately said: "No, isn't it just an earthquake, how can it last for such a long time, I think in another three or five days, this earthquake should pass." ”
Yingkang is a modern person, and he also knows the tragic extent of the earthquake in the second year of King Zhou Youwang from the history books.
After listening to Zhao Boyu's words, Yingzhao also said: "Doctor, this earthquake has caused great damage to our Qianyi City, I mean that if there is no more earthquake tomorrow, I will start organizing the people to build the city." Besides, at present, we Qin people only have such a city in Guanzhong, if we don't build it in time, in case Rong Di in the north comes over, we really have no place to hide. ”
After all, Yingzhao is a person who has experienced some things, and he is very aware of the important role of this Qianyi City to the Qin people in Guanzhong, as the official in charge of the civil affairs of Qianyi under the Si Nong Order, of course, he must prepare to build the city in advance.
After listening to the words of the two, Ying Kang shook his head and said, "Your thoughts are a little biased, this earthquake is not as simple as you think. Judging from the damage to the city, it should be a very powerful earthquake, since it is a very powerful earthquake, and the duration will not be very short, so we must be prepared to live outside the city for a long time, and we must not rush the people into the city, once an earthquake occurs, the people will suffer a second injury. ”
At that time, there was no mention of the magnitude of the earthquake, and of course Yingkang couldn't tell them how many magnitudes the earthquake was, so he could only tell Yingzhao and the others that the earthquake was very powerful, and everyone should be prepared to live outside the city for a long time.
Since Ying Kang said so, what else can Ying Zhao and the others say, "Since the doctor thinks that we need to stay outside the city for a few more days, then let's think about ways to live outside the city." However, the doctor doesn't need to worry too much, after all, we Qin people used to be born in horse breeding, and we also lived in tents before we lived in the city. ”
Ying Zhao said this, Ying Kang was a little relieved, after all, the Qin people also lived in tents before, and they had experience in living in tents, "When the third brother said this, I was also relieved a lot, at the moment we have three things to solve, one is to deal with the corpses of the dead and injured people in the city; Second, we must carry some grain out of the city in time, and at the same time find water sources for the people to ensure their livelihood in the future; The third is to do a good job of taking in the people who have fled from other places and providing them with food and drink. ”
Ying Kang knew that the Qishan earthquake was not a joke, but an important reason for the end of the Western Zhou Dynasty.
After listening to Ying Kang's words, Ying Zhao pondered and said: "What the doctor said is reasonable, although we did not suffer many casualties after this earthquake, there are thousands of people, and if the bodies of these people are not carried out in time, it is easy to cause plague for a long time." I think that tomorrow morning I will bring the dead and wounded people into the city to carry the bodies of their families and bury them in time. ”
Ying Kang listened, waved his hand and said: "This matter is a chore, it is better to let He Youshou lead the troops into the city to deal with it." ”
After hearing this, He Youshou arched his hand and said: "I am willing to lead the troops into the city to carry the corpses, and all the corpses will be carried within one day tomorrow, and the people will be buried." ”
Ying Kang listened: "You are right, give you a day to carry all the corpses in the city out of the city, and at the same time let the people bury their relatives by themselves." ”
Then Yingkang said to Yingzhao: "Si Nong Yingzhao and Sima Boyu, the two of you will also lead a thousand soldiers and horses to the granary in the city early tomorrow morning, and move some grain out of the city, at least to provide food for the people to live outside the city for more than half a month." ”
The food supply for tens of thousands of people for half a month is definitely not a small amount, but in the case of disasters and earthquakes among the people, if the people are allowed to go into the city to get food from their own homes, it will inevitably cause further harm, so for the sake of safety, it is better to be supplied by the officials.
Ying Zhao was reluctant when he heard it, "Doctor, we have been in Guanzhong for a few years and have finally accumulated a little family foundation, you let the people eat for half a month in vain, and there is not much technology in our granary." ”
Ying Kang smiled after hearing this: "Third brother, you are a little family, if we don't let the people eat, the people will inevitably go into the city to get food at home, what if there is an earthquake again?" If the people are all shaken to death by the earthquake, who will we officials do? When the catastrophe comes, we still have to protect the people, as long as we have the people, why worry that there will be no greater development in the future? ”
Although Yingzhao is a pity for food, but after all, he is still a person who understands things, since Yingkang has said it so clearly, he can't object anymore, so he has to say: "Since the doctor wants this, I have no choice but to obey." ”
Ying Kang listened and continued; "If the third brother wants to move, he will carry more food, although our Qianyi has been damaged a lot in this earthquake, but I think the damage in Guanzhong country will definitely be more serious than ours, and many people will flee to us to beg for a living. Since people are willing to come to our Qianyi, we can't help but give them a bite to eat and drink. ”
"Huh? The doctor not only wants to eat and drink for his own people, but also for the people who have fled? Our Qin people are so little bit of money, don't you dare to use it all up! "Yingzhao has grown up when he hears it, and the doctor not only wants to eat and drink for his own people, but also for the people who will flee in the future.
Ying Kang continued to laugh and said: "Third brother, I don't know how much the Qin people in Guanzhong have, don't you know yet, third brother?" Atmospheric point, saving people in danger, doing so will only be good for us Qin people. I believe that after this earthquake, the Qin people will definitely have greater development. ”
"Okay, I'll listen to the doctor." Although Yingzhao is a pity for food, compared to the development of the Qin people, what is this food?
The matter of food is solved in this way, and the rest is the water source, after all, Qianyi City is built on the edge of Qianshui, and although the camp tent in the south of the city is some distance from Qianshui, it will definitely not affect the lives of the people.
