In fact, Chen Xilai wanted to understand the current situation of ordinary people in Bingzhou and border counties. If it is true, the ordinary people in Bingzhou and border counties have relatively poor ability to resist risks.
"The situation of the people in Beijun is a bit complicated. Governor Zang went there to find out in person before. The snow was very heavy, but since each household had sufficient food reserves, it did not cause any major problems. The main problem at present is actually the lack of firewood, but in fact
This is not fatal." Wen Hui thought for a while and decided to be honest based on the actual situation of the investigation.
Although Chen Xi came here specifically to solve the snow disaster problem, and following Chen Xi's ideas would be beneficial to many things, Wen Hui felt that even if he was not as tough as Zang Hong, some things still had to be explained clearly. He did not think that at present
The blizzard has caused a snow disaster.
The roads are closed, the snow needs to be cleared, the people are short of firewood, but to say that this winter snow has reached the point where the roads are frozen to the bone, it really looks down on Wen Huihe as a person.
Zang Hong, the governor.
Since no one froze to death or starved to death, and the people stayed at home at most, Wen Hui felt that it could not be directly judged as a disaster. He could only say that the snow was heavier than in previous years, but it was far from the real snow.
The disastrous climate is still very far away.
Chen Xi didn't pay too much attention to Wen Hui's explanation. The other party's judgment was not wrong. As far as the current living environment is concerned, it is indeed not a snow disaster. When he left Chang'an, Taixue
The group of kids in Kaimeng were still having a snowball fight, and on the way north, we could see children running around in the snow.
Judging from these facts, there is no doubt that it is indeed not a snow disaster. The problem is, who told you that it is a snow disaster now, and it is just the prelude to the snow disaster.
The Gan and Shi families sent people to collect the hydrological recording points they had set up in northern prefectures and counties, and compared the data that had been preserved for thousands of years. They finally determined that this was just the beginning. Based on experience, the current hydrological climate is somewhat close to
Late Han Dynasty.
This means that this year's heavy snowfall is just the beginning, and there should be a super cold wave coming from the north. What's even worse is that the moist and warm wind blowing from the southern ocean will move north at a high speed, which means that the snow may reach the Yangtze River area.
.
After the humid warm current and the super cold current collide, the water vapor condenses into ice, and the scale of the snowstorm in the north will increase significantly. This means that the current two-foot snow accumulation at the level of road closure is just the beginning, and the real heavy snowstorm will follow.
Chen Xi still trusts the judgment of the Gan and Shi families. After all, in the letter sent to Chen Xi urgently and secretly, the approximate climate environment in the millennium of history has been clearly found. How heavy was the heavy snow in the late Western Han Dynasty?
The original text of the Han Dynasty: "When it snows heavily, pits and valleys are full, and many scholars freeze to death." Now two feet is a ghost!
The valley is full for you, and according to the historical comparative hydrological data obtained by the Gan family and the Shi family, if the situation is good this year, it should be the climate of the Yuanding year of Emperor Wu, which is what is recorded in history as "the flat ground is five feet thick." Simply
To put it simply, the average thickness of snow in the entire north was so thick that only Cao Cao's head would be exposed.
If the situation is bad, it will be full of pits and valleys during the turmoil at the end of the Han Dynasty.
For the former, Chen Xi reckons that the people can barely carry it, but even for the former, they must quickly reserve enough briquettes for the local people to survive the winter before the snow is too heavy for the government to bear, and provide supply and marketing cooperatives in various places.
The cellar is stocked with enough Chinese cabbage.
If it's the latter, Chen Xi estimates that people really need to die. More than five meters of snow means that most places will be buried. After the snow cover solidifies, it is very likely that the people under the snow will be buried.
Various dangerous situations may occur, and you may even die from suffocation due to insufficient air.
After all, the infrastructure that Chen Xi has built for villages in various places is not comparable to that of the Yong family, which has its own underground palace, air inlet, and air intake channel design. Although the Yong family is a little lazier, even if this family is really buried in the snow,
There will be no problem, but if a normal village is buried, it will be very fatal.
Originally, the population of the Han Dynasty was very small. If thousands of people died every day in a cold winter, Chen Xi would not be able to withstand it, so he had to make preparations for cold and frost protection in advance.
What's more important is that after experiencing this wave, Chen Xi began to think about whether to build boilers for the villages in the north. Although it would consume more money, there is such a thing that, as a certain link in official logistics, must be stocked before winter.
Huge coal.
In this way, even if there is a heavy snowstorm in winter, all the villages can be ordered to directly use the coal stored in the boiler room. The only disadvantage is probably that it is difficult to manage.
Therefore, Chen Xi had to go on an on-site inspection first to determine whether this could be done. Well, this was inevitable. One snowstorm was enough. Chen Xi didn't want to suffer a second time. He had to go there in person.
Learn how to manage well.
"Here, take a look for yourself." Chen Xi handed Wen Hui the urgent secret letter from Gan and Shi's family. After reading it, Wen Hui's face turned pale and he was about to curse. Is the snow so heavy?
"If it's just the current level of snow, that's it. I didn't quite understand why the Gan family and the Shi family directly sent everyone in the clan to various places to collect the annual hydrological and climate data. After I got this, I understood." Chen Xi
He sighed and said.
After all, Chen Xi is not a climatologist, so Chen Xi doesn't understand the meaning of the experiences left by the Gan and Shi families to future generations. When those portrayals appear, they must act as soon as possible. This is a life-saving time.
"This is just the first wave of blizzard, and the real snow disaster will come later. According to them, the place where the snow is five feet thick is Chang'an, and Bingzhou will only be thicker, not thinner." Chen Xi raised his head slightly and looked at Wen Hui.
Hui's face is turning blue. Damn it, are you crazy?
"I'm just looking for Governor Zang. I may not be able to do it alone." Wen Hui made a quick decision. At this time, he really didn't care about showing up in front of Chen Xi. People's lives are not something they use as meritorious deeds.
I can't afford it myself.
Zang Ba himself is here. He just pretended to be sick and didn't want to come. The reason was also mentioned. In his opinion, Chen Xi was just looking for trouble. The only ones who froze to death were those non-citizens who did not accept Wang Hua and did not merge villages.
, if you die, you will save them less trouble, so why bother.
Therefore, before Chen Xi came, Zang Ba entrusted all the work to Wen Hui, and also entrusted part of the military power to Wen Hui, asking him to obey Chen Xi's command. As a result, Wen Hui came to kill him while he was lying at home. Zang Ba was a little strange.
, he didn’t think Chen Xi would trouble him for this kind of thing.
Chen Xi's character is known to all the middle and high-level officials of the Han Dynasty. If you do your job well and the people live and work in peace and contentment under your rule, then Chen Xi has no opinion of you personally. Therefore, Zang Ba rests in bed and will not be targeted by Chen Xi. After all,
At present, this is a matter of understanding of the disaster on both sides.
Zang Hong felt that he had conducted on-the-spot inspections and personally traveled hundreds of miles north to find a village for research. He determined that the most severe snowfall would be to close the roads and let each village organize snow clearing. There was no need for rescue at all. At least it was true that they merged with the state.
No need. As a result, Chen Xi came down and ran directly to Bingzhou. This is your distrust of my ability!
Forget it, since you don't trust me, I'll send you someone you trust to work for you. Anyway, in two years I should be transferred to Chang'an to be Liu Yan's adjutant or something, and I would be fine with Wen Hui as the governor of Bingzhou.
If it's appropriate, OK, just hand over the rights in advance.
Why did Wen Hui come to see him at this time?
"Prince Zang, please come with me to meet with Shang Shu Pushe." Wen Hui still respected Zang Hong. He was a man of great ability, strong will, and a practical man. More importantly, he didn't have any jealousy.
With his capable mentality, after discovering Wen Hui's good ability, he even helped Wen Hui along the way. Zang Hong also helped to deal with some minor mistakes Wen Hui made during the process.
Therefore, Wen Hui respects Zang Hong quite a bit, and it is good to have such an immediate boss.
"What happened?" Zang Hong didn't think it was pointless for Chen Xi to come to him to settle accounts. Unless something really happened that Wen Hui couldn't solve, Chen Xi would not come to him.
"It's still a snowstorm problem." Wen Hui said bitterly, but before Zang Hong could refuse, Wen Hui quickly explained, "The current snowstorm is actually just the beginning. In fact, according to the hydrological and climate comparison between Gan and Shi, this year's climate is close to
In the Yuanding year, or even at the end of the Han Dynasty."
Zang Hong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then his scalp went numb. These days, no one can even memorize these historical books. What kind of climate was it in the Yuanding years, and what kind of climate was it in the late Han Dynasty? No one knows what kind of climate it was. If that were the case,
Now we really need to take disaster prevention first.
"Let the county government prepare for the deployment of troops. If that happens, supplies must be sent to local villages before the blizzard comes, otherwise people will really die." Zang Hong said solemnly, "Let's go.
Follow me to see Chen Pushe."
At the same time, Jiangling County Sheriff Liao Li has begun to seize Jiangling's cotton clothing. Although this guy does not have the hydrological data of the Ganshi family, he has lived in Jingchu for many years and some small details have allowed Liao Li to judge that the climate this year is like
Something is wrong.
The spiders in Jiangling actually closed their webs. Even in winter, this was too much. After seeing this, Liao Li looked through the records at the county government office. In the end, he was more than 80% sure that it was going to snow here. At that time
Liao Li was stunned. The temperature here is over 20 degrees, and there is a high probability of snow in three days. How can people survive?
They immediately began to seize cotton clothing and various felts from the trading city of Jiangling. After all, compared to the north, the warm and humid climate in the south is more deadly when it suddenly snows!
