Section 40: The Great Locust Plague

"There will be a locust plague next year?"

Lao Cheng grabbed Yun Ye's shoulders and looked at the bright sunshine outside the tent. It was strange. Who could predict the future? Although Yun Ye's behavior was no different from that of a god, Lao Cheng still doubted the authenticity of this sentence. It was not him.

I don’t believe what Yun Ye said, but this matter is closely related. If something unexpected happens, a person will be labeled as a deceiver. Especially now when the people in the country are unstable, we need to treat it with caution. If you ignore it, of course

It is the safest way. No one will know about it and there will be no trouble. However, when thinking of the terrible disaster described by Yun Ye, where the ground is thousands of miles long and the food is exchanged, even a murderous general like Lao Cheng shudders.

It's a deadlock. If it were just me, Lao Cheng, maybe he wouldn't be in such a difficult situation. Now that Yun Ye has just found his family, the Yun family can be expected to prosper. It would be a pity if this kid loses his life to the locust plague.

"Uncle, there is no need to be embarrassed. My master is already a god-like figure. Although my nephew burned his old man's body with his own hands and scattered it into the Yellow River. My nephew is still not sure whether his old man is dead. I'm afraid he is using this to force him to die.

This is not the first time that a golden cicada has escaped from its shell. The last time I had to pretend to be dead because I was trying to escape Islamic pursuit, and my body was covered with maggots. My nephew was only eight years old at the time, so he tried his best to dig out a small one big enough to accommodate

The body was so damaged that I didn’t expect my master to come back to life and run three hundred miles with my nephew to get rid of those who wanted to return to Islam. Since the old man said that there will be a locust plague next year, there must be a locust plague, and there will be no mistake." Yixi said.

Old Cheng was dumbfounded. It was the most ridiculous thing in the world that a maggot-infested body could still come back to life. If he hadn't seen Yun Ye's serious face, he might have pushed him up. Just as Old Cheng was about to open his mouth, Yun Ye stopped.

Lao Cheng.

"How can my nephew not know about my uncle's concerns? Since my nephew has already entered the world and accepted His Majesty's official position, it is a truth in the world to get people's money and eliminate disasters. My nephew believes in his master and bets his life on the correctness of his words. It is a human being.

Disciple's responsibility, my nephew decided to go to the palace alone in this matter, so Uncle Cheng will not go through this muddy water." This was the first time that Yun Ye decided to do something, and he thought of countermeasures on the way, recalling that in later generations he would

The Great Famine in Africa seen on the computer, the dying big-headed doll being targeted by vultures, and the miserable situation of the girl who should have been curvaceous but lying on the haystack like a skeleton made Yun Ye's scalp numb. If he didn't give it to Li

I would like to remind you that once locusts attack, the entire Guanzhong will become a hell on earth. Historical records record that there are locusts in the Guanzhong, eating all the crops, grass and trees, blocking out the sun, making it impossible for people and horses to move, and filling all the pits and trenches.

This must be a scale that can only be achieved by hundreds of millions of locusts. These locusts are not eating grass but eating people, and Yun Ye will never watch it happen.

Lao Cheng was a little stunned. Is this the same playful and smiling boy as usual? Is this still the child that he kicked around? Just now when Yun Ye said that he could not let this natural disaster happen and remain indifferent, Lao Cheng said

I feel something is different. This child has grown up and has become responsible. No matter whether there is a locust plague next year, Yun Ye's courage and kindness are beyond the comparison of those arrogant people. He turned around and took out a black glazed jar from the cave to blow away the dust.

, knocked open the mud seal, took a big sip, and handed it to Yun Ye. Yun Ye raised the jar without saying a word and took a big sip, and handed it back to Cheng Yaojin with both hands. Old Cheng and Yun Ye looked at each other, and then laughed.

Old Cheng laughed that another talented person had grown up in the Tang Dynasty. Yun Ye laughed that he had finally broken his principle of being careful and safety first in dealing with others, and a strong fighting spirit arose in his chest. No wonder someone on the later website shouted: I would rather do it for a few minutes

A hero doesn’t live in vain. It feels good to be a hero. At least he deceived Old Cheng of the wine that he had hidden away for many years. When he was about to take a second sip, he heard Old Cheng say that he had planned this matter.

He made his own decision and was kicked out of his command by Lao Cheng.

What is a hero? Those who kill generals and capture flags are not considered heroes these days. We have seen them a lot, especially the Zuowuwei generals who have never killed many enemy generals. This is no longer new. If you can kill a bullock

Turn over with one hand and then stab into the heart with a knife, letting the cow's blood flow into the basin without a drop, then you are a real hero. Now Cheng Chumo is doing this, winning applause from the audience. This guy is sitting up with a bloody knife in his mouth

The army stabbed the cow and hung it on the horizontal bar with its arms. Immediately, butchers disemboweled the cow. The entire military camp became a slaughterhouse. The general ordered that all the cattle and sheep that could not be taken away were slaughtered and made into dried meat.

Yun Ye then made the offal into sausages, smoked them, dried them and stored them. Zuo Wuwei was frantically storing food. The soldiers didn't understand why and thought they were going to fight, so they were all very excited.

The general has not smiled for more than ten days, and His Royal Highness the Prince has not smiled for more than ten days. Vice Admiral Niu, who has just returned, has red eyes as if he wants to eat people. Lord Changsun Wuji came again and left in a hurry. He was just killed

Mr. Yun Ye, who was made Marquis of Lantian County by His Majesty, has not smiled for several days. Something serious has happened. Could it be that the Turks have entered the border?

"Is there really going to be a locust plague?" This was the fifty-sixtieth time Niu Jinda asked Yun Ye in the past ten days.

Ever since Cheng Yaojin told the prince about this, and the prince passed it on to the queen in the form of a family letter, Lao Cheng started a crazy food hoarding operation. He bought all the excess food in Longyou in large quantities. Taking advantage of the fattening of cattle and sheep in late autumn, he began to slaughter a large number of them.

.And sent a hunting team to hunt game in the mountains of Longyou. Cheng Yaojin's actions naturally alarmed Changsun Wuji. After asking the reason, he also began to hoard food, causing the price of food to rise sharply in Longyou. Liu Fulu immediately told Yun

Ye sent 5,000 gu of copper coins and never mentioned the idea of ​​grain as payment. A steady stream of grain was transported into the military camp, and every time 10,000 gu of grain was collected, it was escorted to Chang'an by a hundred soldiers led by Prince You. Longyou's auxiliary troops drove.

Responsible for transportation. Changsun Wuji was even more sinister. He exchanged salt for Tuyuhun cattle, sheep and horses, and then exchanged cattle, sheep and horses for grain. He used both methods and began to plunder Tubo frantically. Tuyuhun didn't have much grain. On the one hand, he was raising grain;

It also reduces the ability of the two countries to wage war.

Niu Jinda came back happily and read out His Majesty Li Er's decree to promote Yun Ye to the title of Marquis of Lantian County. Cheng Yaojin also advanced to the second rank of general of the army as a meritorious officer of building materials. Niu Jinda became the third rank of Huaihua general.

Cheng Chumo was promoted to the fifth rank and became the Zhaowu Colonel. Even Zhang Cheng, who was the first to meet Yun Ye, became the Renyong Colonel of the ninth rank. This can be regarded as a chicken or a dog ascending to heaven.

Niu Jinda talked about how His Majesty the Emperor personally smashed a vat, dug up the soil, and harvested seven potatoes weighing six kilograms and four taels in the Taiji Palace in front of all the civil and military officials. The whole palace almost went crazy and started to cry loudly.

Some people beat their chests and stamped their feet, some looked up to the sky and screamed, and your majesty even shed tears of joy without showing any signs of wisdom and martial arts. In the presence of the civil and military officials of the entire court, Yun Ye was granted the title of Marquis of Lantian County, and he was granted a thousand households. This was the first time since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

It was the first time to receive a marquis as a reward, which was a great favor. As he spoke, he saw the prince, Lao Cheng, and Yun Ye, without a trace of smile on their faces. After finding out the reason, they punched the case and broke the case without any joy.
