Chapter Three Hundred and Fourteenth Goes To Its Cricket And Its Thieves(2/2)

"This may be the benefit of centralization. When one party is in trouble, all parties can support it."

Chu Tian has been a lord for many years and gradually understood many truths.

The area of ​​the Eastern Han Dynasty was so large that there were all kinds of disasters. The common natural disasters were floods in the south and drought in the north. There were also locust plagues, snowstorms, earthquakes, typhoons from time to time... Therefore, the centralized system of power became more and more powerful in the Eastern Han Dynasty to reduce the number of small farmers.

Economic instability.

"Pengcheng Prime Minister Wang Lang performed actively during the locust plague and recorded his merits, which will be used to evaluate his political performance when he is promoted in the future."

Chutian saw that Wang Lang's handling was quite timely, so he rewarded him.

Wang Lang felt deeply ashamed when he learned that Chutian had commended him. When a locust plague occurred in the Pengcheng country he governed, he was still filled with guilt. Although he knew that the locust plague was not caused by someone's bad character, which caused God's anger, after all, the locust plague happened to him.

on governed land.

"It's so tiring."

Wu Anguo sat down on the ground, skewered locusts, roasted them on the fire, and ate them.

Wu Anguo's bravery attracted the attention of many civil servants.

"Can locusts be eaten?"

Mi Fang sat next to Wu Anguo and couldn't help but be curious when she saw Wu Anguo chewing the locusts as food.

"Why can't you eat it? Who are you?"

Wu Anguo met Mi Fang and they liked each other very much.

Mi Fang raised her head and raised her chest: "I am Xuzhou Wushuang General, Zhonglang General Mi Fang, whose courtesy name is Zifang."

Wu Anguo didn't expect Mi Fang to have such a big background, so he said: "I am Wu Anguo, the Beihai Iron Hammer. I have no characters. I am now the captain of the fifth school of the Northern Army."

Mi Fang said: "You can enter the fifth school of the Northern Army, which means you have some brute strength. When the locust plague is over, we can compete in martial arts when we have time. Although my martial arts is one of the best in Xuzhou, I will let you."

Wu Anguo heard that Mi Fang's martial arts was one of the best in Xuzhou, and he was immediately afraid: "Your martial arts is so powerful that you might even be better than Lu Bu of Hulao Pass. I won't be asking for trouble."

Mi Fang and Wu Anguo, one dares to speak and the other dares to believe.

The generals set fire to kill the locusts at night. They were exhausted and rested during the day.

Chutian stationed himself in Pengcheng State for ten days and tried his best to suppress the locust plague.

During this time, it was reported that Hou Jing had invaded Guangling County. Chutian ordered Chen Deng, the prefect of Guangling, to defend Guangling and move the rural residents to the city. He then paid no attention to it.

Chu Tian believed that Chen Deng could defend Guangling. It was almost impossible for Hou Jing's troops to capture Guangling. Fang Xuanling judged that Hou Jing just wanted to take the opportunity to go to Guangling to plunder villages and food.

When Chen Qingzhi heard that Hou Jing was attacking Guangling, he asked Chu Tian to go to Guangling and join forces with Chen Deng to attack Hou Jing.

Chu Tian took the test for a while and then agreed to Chen Qingzhi's request.

Pengcheng and Guangling are both administrative-level cities. Through the teleportation array, you can reach Guangling immediately. Chen Deng has two to three thousand cavalry under his command, which can be used by Chen Qingzhi.

After vigorous suppression, the destructive power of the locust plague gradually decreased. There was no news of the locust plague in the surrounding counties, and everyone in Xuzhou felt a little relieved.

In order to prevent their family's farmland from being destroyed by locusts, the aristocratic families in Xuzhou actively supported Chutian in suppressing the locust plague.

Disaster relief grains from various counties were gradually transported to Pengcheng and distributed to victims who were trapping and killing locusts, and the disaster situation has been alleviated.

Xia Liang only appeared in the farmland for a short time in the past ten days. He left early with Li Xiuning because he was tired or felt nauseous when he saw locusts.

Chu Tian thought that she did not have enough physical strength to do such heavy work, so he had no objection to her leaving early. After all, everyone has their own strengths.

It wasn't until the eleventh day that Li Lan, the doctor who had been following Xia Cun since then, came to Chu Tian and said, "My lord, do you know why Miss Xia has been feeling weak recently?"
