Chapter 566: The Drought That Worsens

In fact, now, Zhuge Liang is also depressed, he also knows that Liu Bei has delayed the time to invite him out of the mountain three times because of this drought, but he still hopes that Liu Bei can come to invite him out of the mountain as soon as possible.

Why? The reason is very simple, because his own surplus grain is also insufficient, saying that he is ploughing Longmu, but in fact, Zhuge Liang's two strokes? Even if Zhuge Jun is added, what can be grown? The two of them basically rely on the help of the neighbors in Wollongong, and now because of the drought, the villagers must have no harvest, and they will be hungry, how to help the Zhuge brothers?

"Second brother, what should we do?" Zhuge Jun looked at his second brother a little anxiously, but in his heart he complained about Zhuge Liang again and again. If before this, when Liu Bei came, Zhuge Liang would have appeared, talked to Liu Bei, and competed! In that case, maybe now that Zhuge Liang has returned to Liu Bei, then they won't worry about the problem of food!

"How much food do we have left?" Zhuge Liang asked.

"Counting last year's harvest, we're barely able to survive this winter!" Zhuge Jun said, "And it's still in the case of drinking porridge every day!" ”

"......" Hearing this, Zhuge Liang was silent, and he didn't know what to do, wait? Or not? What exactly should he do?

Zhuge Liang kept pacing in the room, and after a long time, Zhuge Liang made up his mind and stopped.

"Wait, keep waiting!" Zhuge Liang said ruthlessly.

"Oh!" Zhuge Jun pouted, looking like he dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, who let Zhuge Liang be Zhuge Jun's elder brother, since ancient times, there has been a saying that the eldest brother is the father, so in front of Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Jun often behaves very well-behaved, so he still holds the dissatisfaction in his heart.

"Liu Bei, Liu Bei, don't let me down!" Zhuge Liang muttered to himself.

At this moment, it has not rained for two months, and the successive droughts have hurt not only the crops, but also the people, and water has become the thing that the people crave the most!

Often a bowl of water per family can provide a family of four or five people to drink for two or three days! That's enough to see how precious water is!

"Lord, drink some water, you haven't drunk water for more than two days!" At this time, Chen Gong came to Liu Bei's side with a bowl of water that looked a little muddy.

Liu Bei shook his head: "Don't be thirsty, leave this water to those who need it more!" ”

Liu Bei swallowed his saliva, he hadn't drunk water for nearly three days, it was false to say that he wasn't thirsty, but Liu Bei knew that there were people who needed this little more than him, even if it was just a little bit of water!

"Yes!" When Chen Gong saw Liu Bei say this, he burst into tears in his eyes instantly, Liu Bei is really a person of benevolence and righteousness!

"Hey!" Liu Bei sighed secretly, "I really hope that this drought can end as soon as possible and it will rain as soon as possible!" ”

Chen Gong shook his head and remained silent.

But Liu Bei is not a taste in his heart, there is still a month? Is there really another month of drought? Even if he could wait, could the people wait? Can the crops wait?

"Our crops ......" Liu Bei is very much looking forward to a miracle, and is very much looking forward to being able to survive a little bit of crops!

Chen Gong couldn't bear to splash Liu Bei's cold water, but just shook his head gently.

"Hey!" Liu Bei sighed again, in fact, Liu Bei's heart was also very clear! Such a continuous drought has lasted for two months, and it is good that they can survive, but what about the crops? I'm afraid it's going to be a no-brainer this year!

In fact, it is true, the successive droughts have made Xinye, in fact, not only Xinye, but the whole territory of the great drought, because Zhao Feng has made early preparations under his rule, and there are trade-offs, so the loss is relatively small! As for the rest of the princes, the crops under their rule were basically killed by drought, and only the little crops under Cao Cao were still strong!

said that Liu Bei had a headache, and now, among the princes of the entire Han Dynasty, which one of them did not have a headache? It's about eating! What do people live for? It's not just four words - eat and dress warmly!

Those so-called turf and power grabbing, in fact, in the final analysis, are not just about wanting to eat better, dress better, and satisfy their inner desires, that's all.

In the era when human beings were still drinking blood, they began to work hard to survive, not to starve, and not to be warm and not to be frozen! Let human civilization move forward step by step.

And now, seeing that even the most basic food is not enough to satisfy themselves, it is strange that these princes are not in a hurry!

However, natural and man-made disasters are the most unavoidable, and what can you do if you are in a hurry?

What's more, at the beginning of the year, Zhao Feng seemed to spread the word to the Han in the form of a letter, saying that there would be a drought this year, and he also publicized the drought in the newspaper more than once, and also publicized more than once what the people and officials under the rule of Liaodong did!

But you princes don't buy it, they all think that Zhao Feng has a conspiracy, in this case, who can you complain about?

Time passed day after day, and in the blink of an eye, half a month passed, and the people in the streets and alleys were no longer visible, and the people were staying at home, whether there was anything or not, they didn't go out! What if you don't have water, what if you're thirsty? Some people choose to produce and sell their own products, while others choose to cut their wrists and drink their own blood.

Moreover, because of the Han Dynasty, some people who have just become mothers have no milk for their children to drink because they do not get enough water replenishment and they can't eat enough every day, so many families choose to eat each other; More mothers, who really can't bear to give up their children, poke their fingers with knives and feed their children with their own blood!

The whole territory of the Han Dynasty, except for the territory under Zhao Feng's rule, is almost all in a state of wailing, Zhao Feng's rule is much better, although for more than two months, most of the wells in the village have been dried up for drinking, but each family still has its own cistern, until now, every household can still ensure their daily living water!

Moreover, Zhao Feng once ordered that the "Liaodong Daily" follow up and report on the drought throughout the whole process, so all the reporters in the newspaper have worked hard to report the major and minor events that have happened in the past two and a half months on the newspaper, of course, these major and minor events are not only in Liaodong, but also in the rest of the princes!

The people of Liaodong saw that the people of the rest of the states and counties were not prepared in advance, so they would be living like that now! I have more respect for Zhao Feng in my heart!

Moreover, another kind of remark spontaneously arose among the people: Zhao Feng is the true son of heaven! God has even told Zhao Feng about this drought!
