Time, also in getting along day by day, keeps moving forward.

To Wang Xu's surprise, this winter seems to be quite warm.

On this point, Wang Xu didn't have a comparison, so naturally he didn't know.

But no matter it was Cai Yan, Diao Chan and others, they all mentioned it to Wang Xu.

Wang Xu didn't take it to heart either.

On this day, Guo Jia and Xun You came.

He cupped his hands at Wang Xu.

"Lord!"

Wang Xu smiled faintly.

"Let's go, follow me around and take a look at the surrounding scenery."

Everyone has no objection.

The crowd walked around together.

Xun You sighed.

"Speaking of which, today's temperature is much warmer than in previous years."

"What Gongda said is true."

Xu Shu stroked his beard and smiled.

"If it was the season of previous years, we would have been shivering from the cold."

"Where there is still leisure, come outside to watch."

Guo Jia clapped his hands and laughed loudly.

"exactly."

"If this is the case every winter, we no longer have to worry about people freezing to death."

"It's just that it seems that the snow hasn't come down this year."

……

Listen to the discussion of several people.

Wang Xu's heart skipped a beat.

Vaguely, he seemed to realize that something was wrong. .

Chapter 293

What is it?

Wang Xu thought about it carefully.

Then, his heart skipped a beat.

He finally found out what the problem was.

The dangers of warm winters.

After a warm winter, locust plagues are prone to occur.

The reason is rather simple.

Due to the increase in temperature in winter, the locust eggs that would have been killed by the cold survived the winter smoothly.

If there is another drought in the second year, locust plagues will easily occur.

This thought made Wang Xu startled.

Moreover, he vaguely remembered.

It is recorded in history that in the second year of Ming Dynasty, a large-scale locust plague occurred in Yanzhou and Xuzhou.

The locusts are overwhelming and coming.

Turn all the food into wreckage all over the place.

Its size is astonishing.

Countless locusts swept Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou and other places.

03 The people have no food to eat.

It has become the norm to change children and eat.

It's like a hell on earth.

For this reason, Cao Cao in history also fell into a food shortage.

The war had to be stopped for lack of food.

If this is the case, how many people will starve to death because of it...

Thinking of this, Wang Xu's face turned slightly pale.

His footsteps also stopped involuntarily.

Guo Jia and the others chatted happily one by one.

But when they turned their heads, they found that Wang Xu stopped abruptly.

At that moment, they all turned their heads and looked at Wang Xu.

Seeing Wang Xu's expression, Guo Jia and the others were quite surprised.

For a long time, Wang Xu looked indifferent in front of them.

There seems to be a kind of demeanor that Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his face.

But now, what happened?

Guo Jia said with concern.

"My lord, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Xun You and the others surrounded him with concern.

"My lord, why don't we go back first."

Wang Xu's expression became calm again.

Only this time, he was no longer as relaxed and freehand as before.

Instead, it was serious.

Wang Xu said with a gloomy expression.

"Pass down this king's decree. In another month, if the weather warms up again, we will send troops to Yanzhou."

Everyone was taken aback.

Some of them don't understand.

Why did the lord suddenly mention this matter.

But seeing what Wang Xu said, they naturally wouldn't object.

Immediately Qiqi bowed in response.

What they didn't know was why Wang Xu was so anxious.

Naturally, it was because of the plague of locusts.

Generally speaking, the biggest locust plague outbreak time is from May to August and September every year.

If he wants to prevent the locust plague from happening, the best way is to include the areas where the locust plague may occur under his command.

On his attribute interface, in the column of the attribute National Fortune, it is clearly written.

"Characteristic national luck: On the territory under the rule, there will be no natural disasters, earthquakes, plagues, rat plagues, locust plagues and other diseases!"

And February next year is the peak period of locust plagues in May.

In the middle, there was only a short period of three months.

The time left for Wang Xu is running out.

And in these more than three months, if he can bring all Yanzhou and Xuzhou under his command.

Then this big locust plague will never happen again.

Hope, in time!

Wang Xu thought to himself.

They turned back to Prince Ming's Mansion.

Everyone left together with doubts.

Guo Jia, Xun You, and Xu Shu stayed behind.

The three of them looked at each other, and Xu Shu took the initiative to step forward.

"My lord, let's see that your face suddenly changed just now. Did something happen?"

Wang Xu nodded solemnly.

"good."

"The reason why the king didn't say anything just now is because of this matter, which is of great importance."

Hearing what Wang Xu said, Guo Jia and the three of them jumped in their hearts.

A bad feeling came to my heart.

There are only a handful of people in the world who can be said to be of great importance by their lord.

For a moment, their complexions also sank.

The three of them bowed their hands to Wang Xu together.

"Also ask the lord to enlighten me!"

Wang Xu said with a gloomy expression.

"You know, next year there will be a plague of locusts."

"Ah?" The three couldn't help but exclaimed.

The plague of locusts is like a nightmare for them.

They all paled in horror.

Guo Jia asked.

"How large is the locust plague?"

Wang Xu sighed lightly.

"The scale of the locust plague this time is very large."

"I'm afraid it will hit Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Yuzhou, Sili and other places."

The three of them stood up abruptly from their seats.

Xun You hurriedly asked.

"My lord, will there really be a plague of locusts?"

Guo Jia and Xu Shu also looked at Wang Xu together.

"Exactly!"

Wang Xu nodded solemnly.

Seeing what Wang Xu said, Guo Jia and the others couldn't sit still any longer.

They are loyal to Wang Xu.
