Can be specially recorded in history: December in winter, thunder and rain.
This heavy rain is naturally not a disaster that will subside in a few days.
To be precise, this is a phased adjustment in the climate adjustment period before the earth enters the Little Ice Age.
Through historical records, we can easily see the entire context of climate change.
This round of adjustment should have occurred nearly 20 years ago in the sixth year of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen. In that year, a warm winter occurred in Guanzhong and peaches and plums blossomed.
Later, in the ninth year, there was a severe drought in Guandong. In the twelfth year, the Yellow River burst into Hedong. In the next six years, there was a severe drought and locust plagues occurred all over the world.
These are only the large-scale natural climate disasters that have been recorded in history and have affected the country.
As for the occasional small and medium-sized local disasters, they were not recorded in the official history books by historians, but became archives in Shiqu Pavilion.
Even so, this round of adjustments had an extremely heavy blow to the Han Dynasty.
In the ninth year of Emperor Taizong's reign, after a severe drought in Guandong, the state immediately ordered the release of prisoners and maids from Emperor Hui's harem to make up for the population losses caused by the drought.
In the twelfth year, the Yellow River burst, and Emperor Taizong immediately issued an edict to remove half of the farmland.
In the thirteenth year, the land tax was completely exempted.
In the first year of Hou Yuan Dynasty, after deep reflection and adjustment, Emperor Taizong issued one of the famous "Three Imperial Edicts to Promote the Han Dynasty", the Edict to Assist the People.
In this edict, the emperor, the supreme ruler, began with a poignant description: "I am very worried about how many years have passed, and there have been floods, droughts, and epidemics."
It can be seen that the disasters at that time were so frequent that even the emperor had to put down his arrogance and take it seriously.
After the locust plague in summer and April of the sixth year of AD, the Han Dynasty government immediately ordered that the princes should not pay tribute and go to the mountains and rivers, and that they should reduce the number of servants and imperial officials.
People.' He even ordered the people to sell their titles.
Mitigate and recover from the impact of disasters through multiple channels.
At that time, nearly half of the eunuchs, maids, and various other officials in the Weiyang Palace and Changle Palace in Chang'an were eliminated. The concubines in the harem could no longer even see the silk silks.
Moreover, these climate disasters did not only affect the Han Dynasty.
This can be seen from the records of Xiongnu invaders in the past dynasties.
In the third year after the severe drought in the ninth year of Emperor Taizong's reign, the Xiongnu invaded Kodidao.
In the winter of the 14th year, the third year after the rupture of Hedong in the twelfth year, the main force of the Xiongnu invaded Henan. This was the largest war since the Han-Hungarian attack on Pingcheng.
From the sixth year of AD to the year after Liu Che came to power, the Xiongnu invaded twice on a large scale within three years.
These records all show an almost uniform pattern. The Huns usually invaded on a large scale in the third year after the disaster of the Han Dynasty and went south to plunder.
This cannot but be said to be extremely significant evidence.
This proves that the Huns also suffered disasters sent by God. Firstly
If not, the frequency of their invasions would not be so consistent with the pattern of disasters in the Han Dynasty.
As a time traveler, Liu Che knows that after this abnormal climate, the global climate will generally enter a stable period in the next 20 to 30 years.
This brought an unprecedented golden period to both Han and Hungary.
Water and grass flourish on the grassland. The weather in the Central Plains is smooth.
This was the basis for the Han and Hungarian armies to cease fighting for more than ten years in history.
Since you can fill your stomach just by grazing, why would you risk your life by running to the foot of the Great Wall and breaking your head and bleeding?
In China, taking advantage of this rare period of time, the country quickly established 36 large-scale state-owned ranches and raised hundreds of thousands of horses.
The Wenjing rule also reached its peak.
So much so that the ropes used to string money in the treasury have rotted, and as for the grain in the warehouse, there are tons and tons of mold.
However, right in front of us is the trailer for the expansion pack How to Spend This Little Ice Age.
It is still the biggest problem facing Liu Che and the Han government.
Continuous heavy rains, in thunderstorms, continued for several days.
The water level of the Wei River surged rapidly, and many tributaries burst their banks.
The temperature dropped from a peak of nearly 20 degrees to nearly zero degrees.
The Yellow River was frozen and frozen.
In the face of such an unusual disaster, even Liu Che took precautions in advance and mobilized all available forces.
The wheat planting industry in Guanzhong was still severely damaged.
According to statistics from internal historians and large farmers, at least nearly 5,000 hectares of wheat fields were submerged by floods caused by heavy rains. They were destined to lose their harvest.
The sudden change in climate has affected at least 10,000 hectares of wheat fields, causing them to face poor harvests or even no harvests.
The entire Guanzhong was filled with mourning.
Countless people cried sadly.
But as the saying goes, blessings depend on disasters, and misfortunes depend on blessings.
This disaster is not all bad.
While the tens of thousands of households affected by the disaster were still weeping at home, many businessmen came to their homes with large sums of money and various promises.
Men can go to mines to mine, go to workshops to smelt iron, and work on construction sites.
Food and accommodation are provided, and a bushel of corn is given every day. An additional salary of 50 yuan is given every month.
Even women can go to workshops to weave cloth and go to mulberry fields to raise silkworms.
Since last year, with the implementation of the salt and iron official policy and the resettlement and reclamation policy.
The merchants in Guanzhong were literally transported into a jar of honey, so sweet that they didn't even want to climb out.
Originally, many people thought that the Yantie government camp would be a disastrous policy.
But who would have imagined that after the implementation of the Salt and Iron Official Camp, their lives became better.
They no longer need to worry about sales and channels.
As long as you can produce ironware and salt, the Salt and Iron Yamen jointly led by Da Nong and Shaofu will eat everything at the official price without blinking an eye.
The settler immigrants are more like a monster with a big mouth.
Whether it was salt, iron vessels, clothing or food, they accepted everything that came and swallowed it all.
Therefore, in the past few months, the merchants and powerful people in Guanzhong have been really happy and troubled.
Fortunately, the business went so smoothly!
As long as the quality can be guaranteed a little, the products produced, whether they are salt, iron or other products, will have no worries about sales.
As for the trouble, everyone suddenly realized that there seems to be not enough manpower!
The population structure of Guanzhong has long been mainly composed of owner-peasants and landlords.
Occasionally, there were bankrupt farmers who were immediately arranged by the Shaofu to go to Shanglin Garden to farm for the emperor.
The employees employed by most merchants are basically their own domestic slaves, tenants, etc.
Even for a powerful businessman like Tian, the number of employees in the whole family would only be a thousand.
It is obviously impossible to meet the task of expanding production scale with this small number of people.
So, everyone rolled their eyes and immediately focused on the people affected by the disaster.
Inadvertently, capital took the first step of its awakening and competed with agriculture to compete for the population. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
