Guo Shoujing is in a hurry, something must be wrong!

"Lord, disaster is imminent!"

The common weakness of a professional talent like Guo Shoujing is that his political literacy is slightly poor.

I don't know how to distinguish the environment, words like "disaster", and I blurt it out. In this way, it is very easy to shake people's hearts, and this is a political taboo.

Fortunately, Liu Mang doesn't care about these, if he changes his father, after a long time, he may bring disaster to himself.

Du Ruhui reminded Guo Shoujing in a low voice: "Mr. Ruosi is cautious and whispers." ”

Guo Shoujing realized his recklessness, nodded apologetically, and said in a low voice: "The locust plague is coming. ”

Locusts!

Everyone's hearts tightened.

Liu Mang's expression was grim. "Let's go, go back and discuss."

In the Lieutenant's Mansion, Song Yingxing was already waiting there. In his hands, he held several locusts of different colors and sizes. As soon as he saw Liu Mang coming back, he immediately hurried over. "The Lord Locust Plague is about to start!"

Song Yingxing said the same, and everyone became nervous.

This year, there was a severe drought along the Yellow River.

Under Liu Mang's rule, there was drought in the southern part of Bingzhou and all parts of Sizhou.

However, due to the early prevention, many ditches were built, water was diverted for irrigation, and new varieties of seeds cultivated by Jia Sixian, although there was a severe drought, it is expected to usher in a bumper harvest.

However, if there is a large-scale locust plague, the upcoming harvest will be in vain.

Isn't naivety what people want?

"Are you sure?"

Song Yingxing nodded vigorously. "Sure, but I don't want to be the source of the locust plague."

Liu Mang breathed a sigh of relief, but he almost scolded Song Yingxing!

usually speaks like a cannonball, and no one is allowed to interject at all, why is it so big today?

Locusts cannot fly long distances and usually only cause serious damage to the place of origin.

However, the locust plague was terrible.

The hearts of the people are related to the world, and the people take food as the sky, and the locust plague rises. If the people have nothing to eat, the world will be in chaos.

Meet now!

Song Yingxing and Guo Shoujing introduced their analysis.

Recently, in the Luoyang area, there are more and more flying insects. The number and variety of locusts far exceeded those of previous years, which aroused the vigilance of Song Yingxing and Guo Shoujing.

Droughts and floods are the most likely to cause locust plagues.

Under Liu Mang's rule, he was prepared early. A large number of diversion ditches were dredged and excavated, and no severe drought occurred.

Another factor that is prone to locust outbreaks is large areas of wasteland.

In addition, the area of wasteland is very small. Under Liu Mang's rule, it was stable and peaceful, the people returned, and the displaced people poured in. A lot of wasteland has been allocated.

The land policy implemented during the Taiyuan period greatly encouraged the enthusiasm of the big families for land reclamation.

Arable land has increased and wasteland has decreased. Irrigation with canals to avoid drought. This makes it possible to merge the state of Sizhou. There is no possibility of a serious locust infestation.

……

However, the surrounding areas of the Central Plains will face serious disasters.

According to the analysis of Guo Shoujing and Song Yingxing, the southern part of Jizhou, the northern part of Qingzhou, most of Yanzhou, the northern part of Yuzhou, and the eastern part of Sizhou will suffer from severe drought.

In recent years, the Central Plains has been plagued by war, with millions of people either dying or fleeing their homes. In these areas, large tracts of arable land have been abandoned and reduced to wilderness.

Drought. Wasteland, which provides conditions for locust breeding.

Although it is not his own land, thinking that the people will suffer another catastrophe, Liu Mang is inevitably anxious. "Is there a way to avoid the locust plague?"

"Dig deep into the wasteland. Exposure to the eggs and insects can avoid disasters. However, there are countless wastelands in the Central Plains, and in a short period of time, the labor required to plough the wastelands is as much as millions of millions. No way. ”

I can't manage the affairs of other people's territory, so I can only solve the things under my own rule first.

In the eastern part of Sizhou, which has just been integrated, if a locust plague breaks out there, it will affect Luoyang, Hanoi and other places.

Moreover, it is the summer month, and the southeast wind prevails, so it is necessary to guard against locust plagues in the southwest of Jizhou, northwest of Yanzhou and northern Yuzhou.

Song Yingxing suggested that the wasteland in Hanoi and Si Liga bordering the above-mentioned areas should be burned. In this way, eggs and insects in these wastelands can be prevented, and fireworks can also prevent locusts from flying in.

The locust plague can cause no less harm than war.

And all parts of the state and Sizhou, mobilize from top to bottom, and we must win this battle of people and insects.

And in the surrounding places, the battles between people with swords and swords, bloody rain and bloody wind are unfolding......

……

Yecheng's hometown, assisted by Tian Feng and his youngest son Yuan Shang, was in charge, and the general Chun Yu Qiong defended.

The eastern part of Hanoi, which borders Liu Mang's land, is still garrisoned by the eldest son Yuan Tan and the general Wei Changhui.

Six-way soldiers and horses, quickly assembled, and immediately attack!

The battle is about to break out.

Replace Liu Yu, before the butt is firmly seated, he will face Yuan Shao's army, Gongsun Zhan, who is more than auspicious.

At the same time that Yuan Shao entered Youzhou, Cao Cao had also started!

The place where Liu Bei is based - the plains and the country of Jinan, it is difficult to protect ......
