Chapter 287 The first snow

The sacred golden eagle spreads its wings and soars in the blue sky above the snow clouds.

Chen Sheng sat firmly cross-legged on Da Mao's broad back, wrapped in a thick bearskin cloak, and a sharp sword energy hung three feet in front of him, separating the strong cold wind from his face.

He lowered his head and stared at the clouds below him. Looking down through the sparse gaps, all he saw was a vast expanse of white snow... He set off from Chen County and flew to Jizhou Anyi, having traveled five to six hundred miles.

Yao, it’s all like this!

There was a hint of gloominess creeping into his brows unconsciously.

This year's snowfall came earlier than last year. The snow fell only two or three days after the frost, and the snowfall was more abundant and wider.

It was obviously the first snowfall, but it continued to fall for two days and two nights without stopping. The snow outside Chen County was so deep that it almost reached the knees when one stepped on it.

But last year, it was not until around the light snowfall in late November that the snowfall gradually reached this level.

Almost a month ahead of schedule!

Chen Sheng was not too worried about how the people under his rule would survive this harsh winter.

As early as early September, he had suppressed the policy of "preparing grain, preparing wages, and protecting against cold and frost" as the second nine-county document after the COFCO policy, and also included this work in the ongoing work.

One of the key training projects of the Second Army of the Red Army that conducts recruit training!

The geographical location is further north than Chen County, and the five counties of Chenliu, Yingchuan, Chenliu, Liangjun, and Jiyin, which are on the same level, all follow the half-dividing plan implemented by Chen Sheng in Chen County last year, with villages and towns as the lowest units.

Focus on building heated kang greenhouses to accommodate people who are unable to survive these winters, and work together to survive this winter.

As for Yuzhou and Qiaojun, which are geographically farther south than Chen County, last year's snow line is used as the boundary. In areas where it snowed last year, heated kang greenhouses were built intensively. In areas where there was no snowfall, the local government took the lead in organizing

Cutting down trees and preparing firewood...

With the experience of coordinating this work last year, it will be much easier to promote it again this year.

Li Si sat in the center, allocated manpower and material resources, and distributed the coal samples to the nine counties. He ordered the local officials to hang them outside the gates of their respective official temples, and put up notices to advertise them. Anyone who could find out the source of this material would be

Prize of 100 gold!

Chen Sheng asked several times about the progress of the implementation of this policy. Li Si figured out his temperament and reported a lot of solid data to him.

After asking several times, Chen Sheng stopped asking... Perhaps the position of Prime Minister Zuo of the Han Dynasty has developed Li Si's potential. His recent affairs have become more and more in line with Chen Sheng's wishes.

Therefore, even if the snow came quickly and steeply, it could not catch Chen Sheng off guard!

What really made his heart feel as gloomy as a shadow cast over it was that he was not sure whether this year's snowfall, which was different from last year's, was a sequelae of his own self-reliance, or the normal rhythm of the Little Ice Age.

But no matter which one it is, it indicates that his life in the next few years may not be easy...

Let’s not talk about the Little Ice Age. It can be as short as twenty or thirty years and as long as two or three hundred years. It is common.

Every Little Ice Age was a catastrophe for the Yanhuang bloodline born in the agricultural civilization... without exception.

If it's the sequelae of becoming a king...it's hard to say.

If it was just this level, Chen Sheng could withstand it for the time being.

But if he is shameless and shameless, he will arrange spring floods, summer droughts, autumn locusts, winter snows and other disasters for him...

He wasn't sure if he could handle it.

We can only be sure that even if the Han Dynasty was about to collapse, he would definitely let Taiping Road collapse before him!

Speaking of which, Taipingdao's restrained wording and ambiguous sentence was delivered to Chen Sheng's hands more than a month ago. He only glanced at it briefly and took it directly to the latrine for emergency response... Don't say it, go ahead.

The silk satin feels really good.

The superior person cannot listen to what he says.

But it depends on what he has done!

Taiping Dao publicly handed him a letter of war, but privately, not to mention soldiers and horses, not even food and grass were used!

Are you going to fight him with words?

That letter of war did not hurt Chen Sheng even a hair. Instead, it exposed the fact that Huang Tian was the main leader of Taiping Road. It was indeed not a random attachment, but the fact that Huang Tianma was a serious front-line soldier.

Since then, Chen Sheng has figured out many things.

For example, why does he need to expend luck points to make it rain, but the demon path of Taiping Dao without luck points can also make rain.

For example, why did Taiping Dao raise a flag to rebel and conquer the four states of the imperial court? Why did they not send assassins to assassinate all the commanders of Taiping Dao? But when he had just appeared, the imperial court did not hesitate to invite assassins from various families at the expense of enclosing the territory.

Assassinate him...

It turns out that there are real people behind Taiping Road!

In other words, this vigorous Yellow Turban Rebellion seemed to be caused by some people pretending to be deaf and mute, causing great turmoil inadvertently.

But in fact, it was a huge shady deal in which the powerful officials and ministers all had a clear mind, and could even be said to have acquiesced in the fact that Taiping Road would replace the Great Zhou Dynasty in ruling the land of Kyushu!

In other words, all the people involved in this huge shady transaction, whether actively involved or passively involved, are all leeks.

The Million Yellow Turban Army is.

Millions of imperial soldiers are.

Chen Sheng used to be the same.

But not anymore…

He is now a small banker who became a major shareholder through stock trading.



"Chirp..."

Da Mao yelled to remind Chen Sheng that he was there.

Chen Sheng stroked the feathers on its neck and said softly: "Go down."

Da Mao responded, folded his wings, and his huge body rushed into the thick lead cloud like a fighter jet diving.

"Bo."

A man and a eagle break out of the lead cloud, and they see a majestic white city located on the fertile fields to the west of the broad river.

Da Mao continued to swoop, and while swooping, he let out three extremely penetrating high-pitched hawk sounds, informing the person in charge of the city on the ground below that Chen Sheng was coming!

Usually, when it travels alone across the nine counties to deliver official documents, it only barks twice. Firstly, it notifies the people below to come out to receive the official documents. Secondly, it also avoids the kind of people who always want to shoot something with a bow and arrow.

, and lost his own life.

Only when Chen Sheng comes in person, it will bark three times, firstly to notify the person in charge below to come out to greet him, and secondly, to prevent people who don’t know Chen Sheng from causing anything unpleasant to happen to Chen Sheng. After all, Chen Sheng has such a strong personality.

I have a lot of things to do, and I often have to travel to and from nine counties. I don't have that much energy to deal with such small things every time.

Chen Sheng didn't teach it this, it figured it out on its own, and it has become a routine.

Chen Sheng stood up and patted Da Mao on the head. After saying "Don't go far, we will go back later," he jumped down and headed straight for the former Yuzhou capital and now the Yuzhou garrison.

Before he even landed, Chen Qi, who was rushed out after hearing the sound, was already leading a large group of soldiers in red uniforms who were waiting eagerly outside the guarding yamen. When he saw Chen Sheng's face, he immediately clasped his fists and bent over.

: "At last I will pay my respects to the King. Long live the King! Long live the King!"

“Long live the king! Long live the king!”

All the red-coated soldiers clasped their fists and bent down in unison, shouting fanatically.

Chen Sheng landed on the ground and raised his hands to help: "Everyone, get up!"

Everyone stood up, raised their chests and raised their heads, and waited for the order without squinting.
