Three Kingdoms: I ran for my life all the way, but was forced to become the master of this world!

Chapter 489

The foreign tribes were pacified, so that the Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Western Qiang could no longer invade Liangzhou and the Central Plains. The armies of Zhuge Liang and Li Yan also completely conquered the four small countries of the Western Regions, including Loulan, Khotan, Wusun, and Guizi, and stationed their soldiers and horses more than a hundred miles west of Yumen Pass, making other countries in the Western Regions fearful, and they all submitted to the Han Dynasty, and promised never to betray and ensure that the trade routes to the Western Regions were unblocked.

Although Sun Quan and Cao Cao formed an alliance, the strength displayed by the Han army shocked the whole world, and they naturally did not dare to take the initiative to provoke, so they could only bury their heads in development.

But if they want to compare the speed of development with the Great Han, they will kill themselves, because the gap will only grow as time goes by.

However, there were unforeseen circumstances, and Liu Jun was not all smooth sailing, and he also encountered trouble.

Since the end of the New Year, there has hardly been rain in the Sizhi area, Henan Yin, Jingzhao Yin, and Guanzhong Road.

Although Liu Jun had been prepared, he remembered that in the original history, there were disasters and famines during this period, and he also accumulated a lot of grain in advance, but he still underestimated the large area of the disaster and the wide range of harm.

The people took food as the sky, and seeing that the crops in the fields were about to die, the common people were terrified. Although there will be no riots, looting does occur.

In the Han Dynasty's mansion, Liu Cong summoned important officials Ma Liang, Zhong Xiu, Yi Nationality, Pang Shanmin, Ma Zhong, Xiang Lang, Shi Guangyuan, and Cui Zhou to discuss countermeasures.

"How long will the people's food be maintained?" Liu Qi asked.

"Return to the Lord Lord, it can last up to one month!" Hube Shangshu Pang Shanmin came out, and he knew a lot about the situation among the people, "Last year's grain harvest was bumper, and the people had some grain reserves, otherwise, they would have been gone a long time ago." However, this year, Henan, Sizhi and other places can harvest up to 30% of grain, and I am afraid that only 10% will be left in the Jingzhao area, and Guanzhong Road will have no harvest. More seriously, autumn grain cannot be planted, and it will be affected throughout the year.

"Lord, the grain production of Jingzhou and Yizhou has also decreased, and it is expected that it will be five or six percent at most last year!" Tobe Shi Guangyuan said.

"How are Yuzhou and Yanzhou?"

"There have been a few rains in Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and the disaster is not great, and the production has been reduced by two to three percent!" Ma Liang said.

"The wind and rain in Yizhou are smooth, and the harvest will not be affected for the time being!" Dong Yun said.

"Oh..." Liu Jian nodded, finally having good news.

"How's the food we stockpile?"

"Last year, according to the order of the lord, I bought back a lot of grain at a high price, which can be used normally for three years. However, the great war with the foreign tribes consumed a lot, and with many of the granaries transported to Liangzhou, there was no longer any surplus in the granaries of Chencheng and Chen Cang. Shi Guangyuan said.

"No matter how much is left, first of all, we must relieve the people!" Liu Jun's tone was very resolute, "From now on, the officials and household departments will understand the situation in the homes of the common people in various places, prepare to open warehouses and release grain, and cannot let the people go hungry, if anyone starves to death, this king will severely punish the local officials!" "

No!"

"The Criminal Department has strengthened intelligence collection in various places to prevent riots. At the same time, monitor all traders, if anyone takes the opportunity to raise prices, odd goods can live, and those who seek huge profits will be severely punished! "

No!"

"The military department organized garrisons and county soldiers in various places to do their best to divert water for irrigation, and they could keep the crops as much as possible, but it was really not possible, and they must also let the autumn grain be planted!"

"No!"

At the same time, whether it is in the royal palace or in the families of family officials, we must advocate thrift and resolutely oppose waste. A porridge and a meal, when the thought is hard-won, half a thread, perseverance and material resources are difficult, up and down together, overcome the famine! "

No!"

Liu Jun's several orders went down, whether it was Luoyang or everywhere, all the officials quickly became busy.

As soon as the officials moved, the people naturally took action, and the county soldiers in various places also moved, and then the major corps.

On the banks of the Yellow River and the Wei River, water wheels were erected one after another.

At this time, people suddenly found that there were canals next to many fields, crisscrossing them. They immediately remembered, wasn't that what King Han called on everyone to repair last winter?

King Han really is destined to return, last winter knew that this year's drought, repaired the canal in advance, and made so many water wheels, now it is really a natural success!

At this time, from Luoyang to Chen Cang, along the Yellow River of the Wei River, the people who were originally a little flustered, now their hearts are stable. Even if the grain is not harvested, he is not afraid, the King of Han already knows, how can the King of Han ignore them? It is only necessary to divert water to irrigate the crops, as King Han said.

Together, we will be able to overcome the famine.

The officials also did not extravagantly and wastefully, reducing the usual four dishes to two dishes and two dishes to one.

Under the leadership of the Cai family and the Ma family, the family advocates thrift and opposes waste.

Under the supervision of the Dahan Chamber of Commerce, not only did the merchants not raise prices, but some daily necessities also lowered their prices.

Victims have already appeared in remote areas, dragging their families to nearby counties.

Liu Jun's order had already reached the counties, and if the people starved to death, the local officials would be severely punished, so the victims were quickly resettled, and the government opened warehouses to release grain.

Jingzhou was not greatly affected, Yizhou was not affected, but officials in these two places were not idle, and they were still building water conservancy. Because they have seen the important role of repairing the canal in advance. At the same time, he also advocated thrift according to Liu Jun's orders.

Zhang Song of Yizhou and Taishu Yanpu of Hanzhong delivered grain to the hardest-hit Guanzhong Road through the Baoxiao Plank Road.

Wu County, in the Wu King Mansion, Changshi Zhang Zhao and Sun Quan looked at several pieces of information sent from Luoyang, Chang'an and other places, with a surprised expression.

There was a severe drought in the Central Plains Pass, and they had made preparations and issued an order that grain would not be sold. Once the people have nothing to eat, riots will occur, and although Zhang Jiao prepared for the Yellow Turban Rebellion for a long time, the real outbreak was because of the famine in Jizhou.

Although Liu Jun managed well, the area affected this time was too large, the people had no food, and the members of the Tianyan Camp fanned the flames, once a large-scale riot occurred, Luoyang would fall into chaos and tension. At that time, Xiangyang will inevitably mobilize troops and horses, and he will have the opportunity to attack Jingzhou.

At the same time, Sima Yi promised that Cao Cao would also send troops to Yanzhou.

Liu Jian is too powerful, if he does not take this opportunity to weaken it, he will definitely be a big trouble in the future.

But who would have thought that Luoyang and other places did not rise up in chaos, and Liu Jun's order was even more effective than the emperor's holy decree.

"Zibu, what should we do?" After a while, Sun Quan asked Zhang Zhao.

"Lord, the King of Han must not be an enemy, and if he sends troops rashly, he will be defeated!"

"Don't we have a chance at all?" Sun Quan was a little unwilling.

"Not at all!" Zhang Zhao nodded, his tone was very firm, "Lord remember, what did King Han do last winter?" "
