The deceased is like a husband, reluctant to give up day and night, and it is the end of the year in a blink of an eye.

But since the beginning of winter, there has been no snow, no rain, the weather is surprisingly warm, in normal times, this season has long been slaughtered, the wild is yellow, but this year is unusual.

This made Li Yue's heart go up and down, but if the four times are not right, there will be a catastrophe.

Tai Shi Cao's astronomical doctor estimated that there would be a great drought and locust plague next year.

Li Yue couldn't help but be irritable for a while, just a few good years later, there was some surplus in the treasury, but he didn't expect a natural disaster to come in a blink of an eye.

It can be seen how difficult it was to have a rich harvest in ancient times, and it was even more difficult to find the world of Taiping.

So the vast majority of dynasties were hungry and full.

When drought and locust plagues come together, there is no need to think about food, and as soon as people starve and degenerate into wild beasts, the order that has been established so hard will be disrupted.

The damage caused by a natural disaster is far greater than the damage caused by a major war.

According to the request of Taishi Ling Liu Shang and Taixue to sacrifice wine Xin Cang, Li Yue made a grand ceremony to sacrifice to the sky.

In the southern suburbs of Yecheng, he specially bathed and fasted, and took the prince Li Jian to pray to the sky to bless the wind and rain next year.

Li Jian was even more pious than Li Yue, his small body knelt on the altar, and said very seriously: "May the heavens bless Daliang with smooth wind and rain, bless the people from hunger and cold, and bless the father and queen mother with good health, longevity and good health......."

When Li Yue heard his greetings, a burst of warmth rose in his heart, even if someone taught him, but looking at his expression, there was no hint of hypocrisy, and it was sincere.

I have to say that after worshipping Huan Yi as his teacher, his temperament has also changed imperceptibly, and he has become more and more like the prince of Liang.

Huan Yi doesn't say anything else, the character is absolutely the best choice.

Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, follow him to learn, stay away from the deep palace, stay away from the Cui family, Li Jian will be able to become a generation of virtuous monarchs in the future.

The people also prayed for the protection of the heavens at home, and more than 100 young and strong men knelt on the altar for three days and three nights.

However, it didn't work at all.

The sun is still shining brightly, the winter breeze is warm, and under normal circumstances, God will not open his eyes easily.

"You can't do this, you need to think of another way!" Li Yue didn't dare to pin his hopes on God.

There are many disasters in this era, and those who help themselves, God will help them.

Expecting God all day long is definitely not good.

"Your Majesty has been lightly taxed in the past few years, and the people have some surplus food in their homes, and it should not be difficult to support it for three or five months." Chang Wei, as the housekeeper of Liang Guoda, knows the details best.

"What about after March or May?"

If there is a big drought and locust plague next year, don't think about annexing Qin, and the nearly 100,000 soldiers and people on the western front will collapse because of lack of food.

Thinking of this, Li Yue's heart moved, "Can Tai Shi Cao identify the areas affected by the drought?" ”

Taishi Cao is the predecessor of Qin Tianjian, two members of the order and two members of the Cheng, two members of the calendar, four members of the prison waiting, and another calendar, astronomy, omission carving, and doctor Shiqi, observing the celestial phenomena, calculating the solar terms, and formulating the calendar.

Liu Shang arched his hand and said: "Jinmu Heyue, located in the east and west, the main drought, its division is in the Central Plains and Guanzhong, Bu said: Twin stars accompany the moon, and those who have no virtue die." "Occupy in the Sea" says: The moon and the stars are the same light, that is, there is hunger. ”

The twin stars with the moon are the same as the glowing and guarding the heart, which was a great omen of great evil in ancient times.

The geographical scope of the Central Plains is too large, south of the Yellow River and north of the Yangtze River, all of which are the Central Plains in a broad sense, and they are all densely populated areas.

But Li Yue also got the answer he wanted.

That is, there will also be a catastrophe in Guanzhong, and Liang Guo may be able to survive this disaster, but Di Qin will definitely not survive.

It is said in the divination that "those who have no virtue perish", and I don't know who it should be.

Li Yue's mood calmed down a lot, although the celestial phenomena are false, but they are all the experience summed up by the predecessors, plus there is no snow in the cold winter of Kanto, it can be roughly estimated that next year's drought will occur.

This kind of thing is better to believe than to believe it.

"If there is a big drought in Guanzhong, Fu Jian will definitely go east!" Cui Hong arched his hand.

Li Yue paced two steps, even if there was really a drought, it would be impossible for such a big Liang country to be recruited, right?

The Kanto region has a dense water network and canals that extend in all directions, which should last for a long time.

Thinking about it the other way, God is fair, there is a great drought in Kanto, so the drought in Guanzhong must be more serious.

This is tantamount to a fatal blow to Fu Jian.

If the belly is darker, this drought continues, and the Hu people in Guanzhong don't know how many people will die......

Thinking about it this way, Li Yue felt much more comfortable in his heart, with Liang Guo's current strength, as long as it was not a nationwide drought for a whole year, he could survive it, and at most he would consume the accumulated belongings.

However, there should be preparations.

The first is to prepare for famine, and the second is to prevent Fu Jian's dog from jumping off the wall.

After this natural disaster, Di Qin will be in hand.

"Fu Jian has his own strategy to deal with, and now he is preparing for famine, so he should seize the time to accumulate grain and grass." Li Yue glanced at everyone.

Liu Shang arched his hand and said: "The celestial phenomena should be in Guanzhong and the Central Plains, and the south of the Yangtze River is safe, why doesn't Your Majesty buy grain from Jiangdong?" ”

"I want to buy it, but Huan Wen won't sell it to me." Li Yue smiled bitterly.

A few years ago, Huan Wen set up a trade blockade, and all grain, iron tools, ordnance, and ships were not allowed to go north.

Cui Hong's eyes rolled, "Huan Wen doesn't sell because some people are willing to sell, and the minister is willing to buy some grain and grass from the wealthy family in Jiangdong until Shouchun." ”

Li Yue laughed, "No need, you have to give money to buy things, and Daliang is not rich in hand, now Fu Jian is rectifying the Guanzhong, the west is worry-free, Huan Wen attacked the land of Daliang for no reason, treachery, it is tolerable or unbearable, I will personally lead 100,000 elites to the south and drink the Yangtze River!" ”

As the saying goes, the general ledger is settled after the autumn.

Koto was so disrespectful during this time that he almost forgot that he was a lower country.

Fu Jian instigated Huan Wen's Northern Expedition, Huan Wen instigated Fu Jian to go east, and the two worked for a whole year, but no one moved.

Since they didn't come, Li Yue took the initiative to find them, drink the Yangtze River again, and blackmail Jiangdong!

"Your Majesty must not ...... The 100,000-strong army went south, costing countless amounts of money and food, and if the war dragged on for a long time, it would cost even more. Chang Wei hurriedly advised.

"You can rest assured that my trip is mainly for deterrence, and for the siege of the city!"

To put it bluntly, it's to scare Jiangdong.

Someone will always compromise.

Huan Wen shouted about the Northern Expedition at every turn, and the cavalry showed off their might under the city of Hefei, and he should also be taught some lessons.

Cui Hong said: "Your Majesty's soldiers will come out?" Huan Wen already has Dongguan in hand, and if he can't hold it, my army is afraid that it will be difficult to succeed. ”

"The way of using troops is ever-changing, the Huanwen army is gathered in Jianghuai, I criticize it, attack its heart, fight quickly, and force Jiangdong to submit!" Li Yue stretched his muscles.

In a blink of an eye, it has been almost two years since he led the troops to fight, and the Black Cloud Elite has also rested for a long time.

Other crafts can be lost, and this kind of housekeeping ability cannot be left behind.

Even if they want to destroy Qin in the future, they must beat Jiangdong first, otherwise they will send troops on their side, and they will have to drum up the Northern Expedition in the south, and they will be attacked on both sides.

The Black Cloud Army had already assembled in Yecheng.

Fangtou prepared a large number of ferries, down the white ditch, into the Yellow River, south to Bianshui, Yingshui, directly to the Jianghuai, smooth wind.
