Chapter 144: There are green and yellow rice where the snow is flying

In Yedi, Ye Gong Shen Zhuliang, who had been in charge of water conservancy for a long time, ignored the unanimous opposition of everyone when the weather just turned cold, and led everyone in Yedi to start harvesting the green rice.

Fortunately, he is senior, well-known, and has the power of the army, which is enough to suppress all opposition.

The heavy snow falling all over the sky now proves once again that Ye Gong is right.

But Ye Gong, who always walked on the right path, was not very happy because of this incident. Instead, he fell into deep confusion——

But why do I always feel uneasy? Is it because the harvest is low?

It shouldn't be... In addition to the young crops that need to be fried early, the remaining grain will be enough to support the next year's harvest?

Shen Zhuliang stroked his white beard and looked at the bundles of grain in the granary, some green and some yellow, and there was always an indescribable feeling of panic and tension in his heart.

These negative emotions are constantly suppressing my chest.

It seems... I forgot something very important.

In Shouchun, Fan Li looked at the heavy snowfall and couldn't help but feel happy. Fortunately, Lord Chang Sang came to Shouchun City.

In fact, as early as two days ago, when the weather was not too bad, Chang Sangjun had already reminded Fan Li, and took out a kind of powder to quickly ripen the fertile rice inside the stone wall to golden yellow, and then... Harvest it before it snows heavily.

As for the fields outside the outer city wall, because there is not much ripening powder, they can only be harvested directly when they are young.

It's impossible to harvest all of them. Save as much as you can. Even if it doesn't work, you can still stir-fry them as vegetables.

"Fan Li, I have some bad premonitions recently." Zhao Zhen found Fan Li who was discussing matters with Sun Wu and others.

Li Er left Shouchun and headed for Qin State in Fan Li's "Thousand Miles Chariot" long before the rice was harvested.

Hearing what Zhao Zhen said, everyone looked at each other and nodded in unison: "I have a similar feeling."

"Could something happen to Ouyang?" Zhao Zhen asked.

"No." Fan Li shook his head, "The teacher had already divined before leaving. Ouyang is much safer than us now."

"What's the reason?" Zhao Zhen asked.

"It's unlikely to be a food problem." Sun Wu said, "With Lord Changsang here, if someone else starves to death, it would be really regrettable."

"No matter what the reason is, we still need to prepare fire, oil, charcoal, and other things for the winter." Chang Sangjun said to everyone, "No matter what happens, we just need to prepare everything so that we can cope with the situation without change. Change is.”

"Okay." Fan Li nodded.

In Yingdu, it was naturally snowing heavily here.

However, unlike several other cities that responded in a panic, the King of Chu could be said to be extremely calm about such abnormal heavy snow.

He was only slightly surprised when the rice suddenly started to turn golden, and then he made arrangements for harvesting without worrying that Ying would fall into despair due to lack of food.

In fact, he doesn't seem to care much about food, as if it's not his people who are starving to death.

In other words, he was not worried that his people would starve to death.

"It's so beautiful..." Qu Yanji, who was wearing a gorgeous coat, looked at the snow falling outside with her bare feet.

.

The bottom of Qu Yanji's palace is suspended in the air, and hollow urns are placed at small intervals. Inside the hollow urns are hot coals, which is equivalent to a floor heater.

Qu Yanji couldn't help but want to go out of the house and reach out to catch the falling snowflakes, but King Chu stopped her with his hand.

"Have a good rest, I may not be able to stay by your side anymore." King Chu said lightly.

"Your Majesty?" Qu Yanji was stunned for a moment, unable to react.

"Those unmarried princesses in the royal family are very strong and they will protect you."

King Chu was talking endlessly, and dozens of women wearing black gauze hats and black tights appeared around him, half-kneeling like Qu Yanji.

The faces of these women are covered by layers of black gauze and cannot be seen, but they have extremely perfect body curves. Although they are tightly wrapped in clothes and do not reveal a trace of skin, they are enough to make men can't help but have wild thoughts.

"Where are you going?" Qu Yanji asked.

"I can no longer protect this country. But at least, I want to protect this city."

Outside Yingdu City, there are countless zombies, stepping on the thick snow, gradually approaching this big city lying like a giant beast in the snow.

"Delta Delta..."

On a not-so-smooth road, Li Er and his two followers drove the Qianli Zhuri at high speed.

This car is very stable. Except for the slight bumps when sitting in the front driving position, the two people in the car don't feel any fluctuation at all.

In order to seize time and for safety, they did not pass through those cities along the way, but chose to take shortcuts through the side roads.

Cities are easily besieged by zombies, but there are relatively few zombies on the roads, mostly scattered, and three people are enough to deal with them.

Snowflakes all over the sky covered the car, and the attendants had to clear the snow from the car every once in a while to prevent the eight horses in front of the car from being able to carry it because the car was too heavy.

"Mr. Li, our supplies don't seem to be enough." A follower said after looking through the cabinet.

"What's the closest city to here?" Li Er asked.

"It should be at Xiyi next to Xi River." The attendant glanced at the map and replied, "Are you going to Xiyi?"

"Go to Xiyi and do some repairs." Li Er said, "From Xiyi, you can also follow the Xi River into Danshui, and then take the waterway from Danshui to Qin's Wuguan and enter Qin's territory.

This route is also very convenient.”

"Sir, there seems to be something going on ahead. You'd better take a look." The attendant who was driving the carriage suddenly knocked on the door and said.

"Oh?" Hearing this, Li Er poked his head out of the carriage and saw the city in front of him that was in flames.

"Where is that place?" Li Er asked.

"It should be the analysis of the city..." the follower replied.

Li Er tried his best to squint his eyes. Through the fierce burning firelight and the gloomy sky that had not fallen into darkness, he saw zombies chasing the civilians.

"Let's go! These zombies can appear during the day!"

"Sir, where are you going?" When the attendant heard the zombies, he immediately let the horses run.

"It's a long way to go to Danxi, but there is a pier in Fanli. We just need to get on the boat!"

"yes

!”

In order to allow everyone to harvest the rice quickly in the heavy snow, Ouyang, with the help of Deoxys, began to create something beyond what could be created in this era.

There is nothing we can do about this. After all, we cannot just watch everyone starve to death like this.

Moreover, in the face of such extreme weather, and there are zombies lurking outside who don’t know where, to still think about winning without cheating? That is tantamount to wishful thinking.

He invented a flamethrower, which was set up on a stone beacon with a wooden wall. When it snowed heavily, it sprayed it into the sky. It used high temperatures to melt the snowflakes and turn it into a heavy rain.

This kind of flamethrower mainly uses petroleum as fuel. In order to prevent the oil from leaking out, the oil inside will be sprayed into mist when it is sprayed out of the muzzle, which also increases the range of the flamethrower.

As for where the oil comes from, it is naturally dug out of the ground.

Deoxys is a supernatural creature, equivalent to a "god" in another world. This aspect should still be present.

The only thing that was a bit surprising was that he never thought that an oil well could actually be dug in Pengcheng, which was later known as Xuzhou.

This is really unexpected.

He began to think about what would happen if future generations dug an oil well by themselves.

Becoming a billionaire? Or a reward of 500 yuan and a pennant?

"With this weapon, not only zombies besieging the city, but also millions of troops attacking the city. As long as there is enough food and grass in the city, they can be stopped." Gongshuban touched the handle of the flamethrower and couldn't help but sigh.

He was considered a master of war weapons in the Spring and Autumn Period, so he could naturally see how powerful this kind of killer weapon would be if put on the battlefield.

In fact, if it were not for its heavy weight, the greatest role of this flamethrower would be in sieges.

"It's just used to melt snow water." Ouyang looked at the bunker on the wooden wall that was constantly spitting flames, stretched out his hand, touched the slightly warm rainwater and said, "It should be possible to harvest them all before the sun sets.

"

"That's natural. Although the people are harvesting crops in heavy rain, they are still amazed by the miracle of turning snow into rain." Xiong Zhong said, "Now everyone is privately saying that Mr. Ouyang is the God of Fire.

The morale of the envoys has become even stronger."

"Belief... Well, at least it's a hope." Ouyang originally wanted to stop such things. He didn't really like being called such nonsense, but he didn't want to explain anything, so he could only let it go.

"Sir! Lord Yichang!" A soldier rode a fast horse and quickly rushed to the wooden wall, then turned over beautifully and fell off the horse.

"Close the city gate quickly! Light the beacon tower and close the city gate!" He shouted hurriedly, climbed up the wooden wall, and ran to where the public transportation team and others were.

"Would you like some?"

"Don't worry yet."

"Let's follow the order from the chief of the city. It shouldn't delay things."

"No, this is a scout who went out to inquire about the situation. Since he said so, don't be stunned and light the beacon quickly!"

Several soldiers guarding the wooden wall looked at each other, lit the flames on the beacon tower, and then called to the soldiers guarding the door to quickly close the door of the wooden wall.
