By July, the plague in Hebei had worsened.

There are imperial doctors in Yecheng, and the situation outside Yecheng is not optimistic.

Several major battles broke out around Yecheng, which was also the place where the plague began.

According to the news sent back by Ran Min, although Ran Min sent the imperial doctor to treat the people, there were many infected people, the imperial doctor was short of manpower, and there were not enough medicinal materials, and even many imperial doctors were infected and died.

Yang Luo sent back news from Guangzong that there were many infected people in the county, and he asked to go north to rescue him quickly.

Yecheng Li Yue can't control it, but Guangzong must save it, this place is the base camp of the Beiqi Army, if it suffers heavy losses, it is not conducive to the future development of the Black Cloud Army.

And this is also an opportunity to win people's hearts.

Li Yue then ordered Liyang's medical camp to go north.

Hebei has long been in chaos, the Chinese people went south, the Hu people went north to Xiangguo, and a large area of land became a no-man's land.

The medical camp was escorted by Xu Cheng's Black Cloud Army and was unimpeded.

Li Yue originally ordered Yueji to come back, but she was benevolent and replied that she insisted on going north to preside over the overall situation.

Guangzong is also half of the territory of the Black Cloud Army, and with the acquiescence of Dong Yan and Zhang Wen, Yang Luo and Zhang Zhu'er continue to infiltrate, attract a group of people, and have formed a force.

Someone took care of it, and Li Yue acquiesced.

The plague in Hebei is so serious that it is difficult to succeed without a capable general.

And Li Yue soon didn't have the heart to take care of Hebei.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and as we enter June, there are only a few light rains, followed by a drought that lasts for more than a month.

Many of Yanzhou's rivers have dried up, and their beds have been cracked by the sun.

Onozawa also subsided quite a bit.

The crops in the fields were wilted by the scorching sun, and when they should have held their heads high, they were all bent over in the sun.

Li Yue and Zhou Jian inspected various places, the scorching sun was scorching, and the Tuntian guests and slaves carried water from more than ten miles away to the fields, and their faces, hands and feet were sunburned and peeled.

But the water picked up can only be a drop in the bucket for the endless Tuntian.

Zhou Qian covered his forehead and looked at the sun above his head, "I'm just afraid that this year will be a bad harvest." ”

There are many lakes in Yanzhou, and although there is a drought, it can meet the water supply of one-third of the fields, but the problem is that there are a lot of barren fields reclaimed this year, the spread is too large, and many middle and low-grade fields have also been planted.

Li Yue sighed in his heart, at the beginning of this year, Hebei corpse mountain blood sea, and Yanzhou is as stable as Mount Tai, several small battles are the initiative to attack, keep the war out of Yanzhou, in order to create development opportunities, but I didn't expect God not to give it.

But this is also the norm, farming is to see God's face, last year the wind and rain were smooth, this year's small drought, it is normal.

"Isn't there a month left until the autumn harvest? Keep calm. Li Yue was not only comforting Zhou Lian, but also comforting himself.

"May the heavens bless you!"

Back in Chenliu, Xin Cang suggested building an altar in the south of the city and praying to God for rain.

"Emperor Wu Xianning, the spring equinox of the second year, the world has been dry for a long time, in May Geng afternoon, the first prayer for rain in the mountains and rivers of Sheji, Wuzi in June, get the rain! Why don't you give it a try? Xin Cang shook his head and said.

He was talking about what happened in the second year of Sima Yan Xianning.

For several years in a row, the Yongliang drought, the Xianbei bald tree function reversed, the momentum was huge, and the two generals of the Jin Dynasty were beheaded, the world was shaken, and Sima Yan could not sleep and eat.

"If it rains, it will naturally fall, so what do you ask it to do?" Li Yue shook his hand.

"The foundation of all disasters and differences is born in the loss of the country, and the country will prosper, and there will be auspiciousness; The country will perish, and there will be demons. Seeing the yarrow turtle, moving the four bodies, Zhao is cruel and tyrannical, Ran Min seizes the throne, the killing has not stopped, and the cruelty is still excessive, this is a warning from the sky, and it is a constant plague and drought. Xin Cang took the opportunity to teach himself a lesson,

Li Yue was disturbed.

Chang Wei said: "Asking for rain in the sky, the ancient routine is also, the governor may wish to give it a try, if it doesn't work, you can also appease the hearts of the people." ”

It's almost like a dead horse being a live horse doctor.

"Then give it a try." Li Yue remembered that he had come all the way, and he hadn't sacrificed to the heavens properly.

In these years, we can't underestimate the power of God.

In the Battle of Kunyang, Emperor Guangwu faced Wang Mang's 400,000 troops with less than 20,000 horses, and God raised his hand to be a meteorite, thus laying the foundation of the world in the Eastern Han Dynasty for 195 years......

History is sometimes more grotesque than that.

On a hot day, everything is simple.

Build the altar of soil, burn incense and bathe, and offer three animals, Li Yue bowed his hand to the sky, Xin Cang, Chang Wei, and Zhou Lian under the altar looked at it with wide eyes, and the soldiers looked even more solemn.

Li Yue may not believe in the strange power of chaos, but the soldiers believe it.

The art of weft is very popular in this era, and it can be seen that it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Li Yue faced the clear sky and the scorching sun, read Xin Cang's sacrificial text, and drank a lot of wine.

The sacrificial text is written with sprinkling and gorgeous rhetoric, and Xin Cang's level in this regard is quite high, but Li Yue feels that it is all empty words, so he said to the scorching sun in the sky: "The world is in turmoil so far, and the people are sorrowful. ”

A sacrifice to the sky ended hastily.

Li Yue didn't take it too seriously, who can understand God's temper?

If you understand it, you won't be human......

The sun was still scorching for the next four or five days, and it seemed to be even hotter and hotter.

At this time, Yecheng finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked Yanzhou for help.

"The plague in Yecheng broke out, and His Majesty killed more than a dozen imperial doctors and their families in a row, and sent them to ask the governor to support one or two." Dong Yan said it extremely tactfully.

can make Ran Min bow his head, indicating that the situation in Yecheng is extremely serious.

If Ran Wei collapses, it will not be a good thing for the current Yanzhou.

Jiangdong did not dare to go north, and Yan did not dare to go south, all of them were shocked by Ran Min's martial arts.

"It's incumbent!" Li Yue agreed without much thought.

Ran Weiduo insisted on one year, and Yanzhou grew stronger.

"The governor really understands the righteousness, no wonder Liu Lingjun, Lu Zhongshu and others have spoken for the governor in the court many times."

"Oh? Is there such a thing? "It was a bonus.

Liu Qun and Lu Zhan are not ordinary people, one is the Zhongshan Liu family, the son of Liu Kun, and the other is the Fanyang Lu family, and the Lu family holds the bull ear of the Northern Dynasty clan.

Li Yue infiltrated Hebei, and if there was the support of the Lu family and the Liu family, things would be much simpler.

This also means that the influence of the Black Cloud Army is growing.

"Liu Lingjun has suggested several times that His Majesty unite with the Governor to attack Xiangguo and completely exterminate the Hu forces, but Your Majesty ...... There are many doubts. "Dong Yan has almost become Yanzhou's subtle work lurking in Yecheng.

"This is a great good!" Li Yue sighed, if Ran Min agreed, the end of the Hu people would come.

But things are never so smooth sailing.

Ran Min was worried that Heiyun Mountain would take the opportunity to grow, and Li Yue was also worried that Ran Min would cut off the back road after going north.

Boom –

As he spoke, a loud roar suddenly sounded outside.

Li Yue didn't react for a while.

But there were bursts of cheers from outside the house, "Rain, heavy rain!" The governor prayed for rain! ”

Then there was the sound of raindrops hitting the ground, and Li Yue looked at the heavy rain outside the hall in a daze......
