The entire Zhengxing brigade, all 8 production teams.
Groups of chickens and ducks were scattered all over the hillsides.
Taking advantage of the fact that the locusts are still small, these chickens and ducks are killing the locusts with amazing efficiency.
In addition, adults, children, old, weak, sick, and disabled people in the production team, as long as they can move, all participated in the army of exterminators.
Suddenly, the mountains and plains were filled with commune members wielding big bamboo brooms.
What everyone gives priority to is the pest control work in those high-quality fields with high grain yields.
Close to the ground, there are chickens and ducks searching for small locusts.
Slightly raised 2 or 3 feet away, large numbers of frightened little locusts were flapping their wings, trying to escape from this land of right and wrong.
Every time at this time, the members would round up the big brooms in their hands and then sweep them over hard!
Go down with a broom,
There were at least 3,50 locusts, which were immediately beaten into pieces and turned into a puddle of green mud...
Everyone saw that the elimination effect was very good, and everyone couldn't help but show a smile of relief on their faces...
But Luo Xuan knew: things are probably far from that simple.
Now locust larvae cannot fly 2 meters away, nor can they crawl fast.
The efficiency of pest control is of course very high.
But people get tired all the time, and there are times when chickens and ducks are full and can’t eat anymore.
By that time, the locusts had not stopped emerging from the ground, and their growth and development had not stopped.
Just take a break for half an hour, everyone.
On average, thousands, or even tens of thousands, of locust larvae emerge from each acre of land...
It is said that
Some data show that when a locust plague is severe, there will be more than 50,000 small locusts emerging from each acre of land on average!
Faced with the terrifying hatching efficiency of locusts and their astonishing development speed.
Just rely on the efforts of more than 10,000 chickens and ducks in a production team and about 200 members.
How can we protect it, including deserted beaches, wastelands, swamps, woods...
Including cultivated land, the total area is nearly 10,000 acres?
It is an impossible task to completely eliminate this group of locusts.
Unless the state comes forward and sends people to use aircraft to carry out aerial seeding operations and spray pesticides to eliminate pests.
But during this period.
Not to mention the highly toxic pesticides "Dichlorvos" and "66 Powder", how much harm will be caused to the human body if aerial sowing is used?
It is said that the entire country may not be able to produce so many pesticides to carry out such large-scale pest control work.
so,
It is impossible to expect Red Star Commune to obtain national-level resources to support locust extermination work.
Our country is so big.
Once a locust plague breaks out in places like the East China Plain and North China Plain, its spread speed and severity will far exceed those in mountainous areas like Bashu Province.
therefore,
Even if the country has the resources, it will prioritize pest control and disaster reduction in these major grain-producing provinces and grain-producing areas.
No matter from which aspect you look at it.
this time,
When a locust plague breaks out in Rongwei County, most of the time we can only rely on local organizations to organize manpower and material resources to reduce the disaster and save themselves.
"Uncle Zhang, please send someone to call the team leader Peng Zhikun back. Just say that I have important matters and I want to discuss it with him."
Wait until the members are settled and what they should do.
Luo Xuan asked Uncle Zhang to find someone to call Peng Zhikun back.
Now Peng Zhikun is in charge of all aspects of the entire Zhengxing brigade. If anything happens, you can only discuss it with him.
Finish settling these.
Luo Xuan asked Zhou Laosan to set off quickly and go to Xiaolaojun's production team to tell Zhou Laosan some methods to eliminate locusts and reduce disaster losses.
Let him go to the Xiaolaojun production team and find the brigade cadres there to implement these methods as soon as possible.
The climate at Xiaolaojun's production team is slightly colder.
According to Luo Xuan's speculation, the locust plague outbreak in the Xiaolaojun production team area should be delayed by a few days.
However, locusts grow quickly and are migratory.
Once they eat up the vegetation in one place, they will quickly move to another place and continue to harm crops elsewhere.
However, Xiaolaojun's production team has a vast area, sparsely populated areas, and numerous barren mountains and forests.
Once a large number of locust swarms flood in there, the difficulty of resisting the disaster will be much higher than that of the production team outside the mountain.
However, there is no other way. We can only do our best and listen to fate.
It would be great if we can take measures in advance as much as possible to save a little more crops.
Finish all this.
Exhausted, Luo Xuan returned to his small courtyard.
Not long after,
I could only hear the sound of tractors coming from the trail.
It turned out that it was Yi Yang and Dai Hongmei, together with Tuo Shizhan and his grandson, who came back with 7 or 8 barrels of diesel.
Because before departure, Luo Xuan warned Tuo Shizhan and his grandson: Try not to show your face in front of others.
therefore,
Tuo Haili and her grandfather always covered their heads and faces with a big straw hat every time they rode their bicycles with Luo Xuan.
Including this time, when they went to the gas station to "move" diesel, Tuo Haili and her two grandsons.
They also used a big straw hat to cover their heads and faces, and also wore a thin scarf around their necks to completely cover their faces.
"Luo Xuan, now that the diesel has been moved back, what do you think we should do next?"
Dai Hongmei jumped out of the car,
He asked full of hesitation, "If you tell me, I don't think this diesel fuel can be placed in your home.
Otherwise, if the superiors investigate, it will be a big trouble."
Luo Xuan nodded: "Sister Hongmei, you are right. Let's go to the sand quarry and call a few young men.
Then take all the diesel fuel to the brigade headquarters and put it in the warehouse of the Zhengxing brigade."
He asked Takumi and his two grandsons to knock out the employees at the gas station, and then pull back all the diesel from the gas station.
But if all this diesel fuel is placed in the brigade headquarters, this is a collective behavior.
When the superiors investigate, the characterization will definitely not be that serious.
In addition, this batch of diesel oil is not used by anyone for private use. It is used to fight earthquakes and reduce disasters, and to eliminate large numbers of locusts.
Thus,
Luo Xuan probably won't embarrass himself when his superiors come to arrest him...right?
However, this matter is a bit unclear.
But when things come to an end, we can only talk about it at that time. We can’t worry about so much now.
After listening to Luo Xuan's instructions, Yi Yang and his wife immediately turned the tractor and pulled the diesel to the warehouse of the brigade headquarters.
Tuo Haili and Tuo Shizhan, who had their heads and faces tightly wrapped, followed Luo Xuan back to the small courtyard.
Close the courtyard door.
Tuo Shizhan pulled off the scarf on his face and the straw hat on his head.
He opened his mouth and said to Luo Xuan: "Luo Xuan, although I say I can't guess, how do you plan to eliminate the sulfur after you get so much diesel oil?"
"But I know that I moved all the diesel out of the gas station without permission from my superiors. I'm afraid the nature of this matter is a bit bad."
Tuo Shizhan said: "I just want to tell you one thing so that you can understand.
That is, if your superiors track you down and come to arrest you, you can blame me and ask me to go to jail for you."
Luo Xuan asked curiously, "Aren't you afraid of going in? I'm afraid it won't be a good place for retirement."
"Don't be afraid!"
Tuo Shizhan chuckled: "In our place, today Zhang San went in and Wang Mazi came out. Tomorrow Li Si went in again and Zhang San came out again.

"This kind of thing is as common as the village members taking turns to go to the market. No one will take it too seriously."
You have to bear the consequences for the mistakes you make, and if you stay there for a year or two, you can just wash your hands of it temporarily."
What Tuo Shizhan said is actually the truth.
Since you have three hands, you can eat meat sometimes, but of course, you will inevitably get beaten sometimes.
Sometimes, if you encounter someone who makes things a little too big and goes too far, you will be arrested and detained for a year or a half.
It’s not like there isn’t.
However, there is another truth in Tuo Shizhan's words, which he did not say clearly: tiredness means a little more tired, and suffering means a little more bitterness.
But others are in charge of the food...
However, the overall food situation is a bit tight now. The food there may not be that good.
The portions can't be very large either.
In a house with thousands of people, you will definitely not find a fat person. Whether the treatment is good or not, you can make up your own mind...
The agency store is not open today, and even Aunt Zhang has to go out and participate in the operation to eradicate the locusts.
Now that Takumi Rei and her two grandsons have returned.
Luo Xuan asked Tuo Haili to light a fire to cook, and then he and Tuo Shizhan each picked up a big broom.
Just inside the yard, the locust sweep operation was carried out.
As the temperature rises, more and more locusts hatch out and they become more dense.
These little locusts are scurrying around like headless flies.
There are no crops even dozens of meters around my own house, and there are countless small locusts flying in the yard!
Tuo Shizhan and Luo Xuan are both in good physical condition.
He turned the two big brooms in his hands and made a whining sound!
Like a giant locust meat grinder.
Not long after,
The feet of the two of them were densely covered with locust carcasses that were three inches thick.
Such a dense swarm of locusts could appear in such a small, remote courtyard.
It is conceivable that
How dense are the locusts in the crop fields outside? How terrifying is it?
Just as Luo Xuan and Tuo Shi were unfolding, they turned the big broom in their hands like a windmill!
Ruthlessly harvesting countless small locusts.
At this time, there was a knocking sound at the courtyard door, "Luo Xuan, I'm back, open the door."
When I opened the door, I saw that it was Peng Zhikun who was sweating profusely, pushing a bicycle and hurried back.
"I was in the commune yard and I heard that all the diesel in the gas station was stolen?"
Peng Zhikun didn't bother to wipe his sweat.
Then he asked Luo Xuan with a surprised look on his face, "The commune sent people to investigate, and it turned out that someone drove a tractor to pull away the diesel.
Then I just want to ask, why are you bringing so much diesel back?"
Luo Xuan said: “During the day, we can rely on the members and chickens and ducks to eliminate pests.
What about tonight?
Night is the peak period for larvae to transform into insects. At this time, we pour a little diesel on the firewood.
These locusts are phototactic.
When they form swarms and imitate moths to fight fire, won't they be able to kill a large number of locusts?
And during the day, a few piles of smoldering firewood were burned around the best fields, and a handful of sulfur was sprinkled into the firewood piles.
In this way, at least the locusts will not dare to harm these high-yield areas. Instead, they will gnaw at the land without smoke and fire."
"Oh, so that's it!"
After Peng Zhikun listened,
Suddenly he realized, "No wonder some of the commune officials at that time said that there were only three tractors in our commune, two of which were owned by the agricultural machinery station.
The rest, that is, there is only one tractor in our brigade.
The cadres in the commune know that this matter has nothing to do with you without even thinking about it.
So an officer at that time said, just send someone with a rope to tie you up, and you will definitely not arrest the wrong person.
As a result, I was stopped by the director of the commune and told me to come back and ask you about the situation first."
Until then,
Only then could Peng Zhikun reach out and wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
Just listen to him say: "Director Liao of the commune means that you can't eat or drink the diesel oil after you bring it back.
Since you chose to do this, you must have your intention. That’s why you asked me to come back and ask about the situation first."
During this period, various provinces and cities focused on developing county economies.
Everyone is pursuing what kind of factories, enterprises and institutions to have in their respective counties, and strive to have complete facilities for all walks of life.
The thinking concept triggered by this is: basically all kinds of things must be solved internally by oneself.
therefore,
Matters in a county are almost settled and digested within the county.
Basically it won't poke out.
Naturally, the fat water is not willing to flow to outsiders' fields. This is called DF protecting Aunt Zhu.
In the same way, the inventory at the gas station in Hongxing Commune was suddenly emptied.
The person who did this also belonged to a brigade of the Red Star Commune.
Therefore, the leaders in the commune did not want this matter to become a big deal, so they asked Peng Zhikun to come back to understand the situation first.
In order to make subsequent penalty decisions based on the actual situation.
"There won't be any big trouble in this matter for now. But in a few days, we won't be able to tell for sure."
Luo Xuan said: "Because in two days, it will be the peak period of the locust outbreak. By this time, others will see that we are extensively using fires to kill insects.
Other brigades will naturally follow suit. By then they will have no more diesel, and no longer have the smoke and smoke of diesel fumes.
Their pest control effect will be greatly reduced."
Hearing what Luo Xuan said,
Peng Zhikun also reacted, "In this way, when they thought of going to the gas station to buy diesel, they found that there was not even a drop of oil.
Other teams will definitely go to the commune to cause trouble."
"I'm afraid it won't be possible if the commune doesn't arrest you by then! Otherwise, we won't be able to quell the dissatisfaction of the people in other brigades."
Peng Zhikun raised his head worriedly, looked at Luo Xuan and said, "When the time comes, you can ignore this matter! Just say that it was me who ordered Yi Yang to drive the tractor to get the diesel oil."
"I did this out of consideration for the interests of the people in our Zhengxing brigade and out of the need to fight against disasters."
Peng Zhikun sighed, "In this way, I believe that the superior leaders will not deal with me too badly..."
"No need, just arrest me if you want!"
Luo Xuan said: "In the next few days, the task of disaster relief is still very important. It would not be possible without you at the brigade headquarters to preside over the comprehensive disaster relief work."
Peng Zhikun shook his head, "No! Since you have formulated a specific disaster response policy, it is enough for the brigade and other cadres to implement it.
What you did was also for our collective benefit, so how can we still allow you to be arrested? It’s inappropriate, it’s absolutely inappropriate to do this.”
"It's better for me to handle this matter."
Tuo Shizhan, who had been trying hard to wipe out the locusts with a big broom, said at this time: "The people under the leadership are resisting the disaster. This is a big deal! Anyway, I am idle, and I knocked people unconscious. The superiors want
If you come to arrest someone, let them arrest me."
Peng Zhikun and Luo Xuan nodded in unison.
They all said in unison, "Okay! This matter is settled!"
Tuo Haili, who was busy washing the bacon in the basin, was startled: "Grandpa, it seems you have done this... Hey... It seems that I will have to deliver food to you in the next few days.
Woolen cloth."
And Tuo Shizhan, who was busy waving the broom, couldn't help but stop the movement of his hand, "Uh... two comrades, can we discuss this matter...?"
Previously, Tuo Shizhan expressed his determination to show his determination, but when the real thing came, he still felt a little guilty...
"cannot!"
Peng Zhikun and Luo Xuan replied in unison again.
