Chapter 593: Three Strikes of Natural Calamity


There was a lot written on that piece of paper.

Ma Chao looked at it carefully and found that what was written on it turned out to be recorded in simplified Chinese characters the major events in the life of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty.

In some places, the records are obviously vague and lacking.

It can be seen that Liu Xie wrote it down based on his memory and historical years.

However, that wasn't what surprised Ma Chao.

But he saw that the records before the third year of Chuping were all written in black and white, but in the fourth year of Chuping, Liu Xie actually used a red ink pen to draw a horizontal line.

Moreover, with Ma Chao's keen sense of smell, he discovered that the red ink was not made of cinnabar, but blood.

From this we can imagine how painful and crazy Liu Xie felt when he drew that red line.

The words above the blood line read: In the fourth year of Chuping, there was a severe drought in Sili, which lasted from April to June.

The emperor took refuge in the main hall to invite rain and sent messengers to wash the prisoners.

At that time, there were 500,000 dendrobiums per husk of grain and 200,000 dendrobiums per husk of beans and wheat.

People were eating each other and their bones were piled up.

There was an earthquake in Ding Chou in the sixth month of summer; there was another earthquake in Wuyin.

Yisi is dark, and there will be an eclipse on the sun, and there will be a big locust in Sili.

Ma Chao's hands seemed unable to bear the weight of the piece of paper, and they were trembling slightly.

His cold and heartless heart was even more defeated by the content on it: severe drought, earthquake, and locust plague for four years and one year after Chuping.

It was simply Sanfu's.

A natural disaster Ma Chao has never experienced three disasters: drought, earthquake, and locust plague, but in his previous life, he had watched a documentary on the Great Famine in Africa on TV.

There was a dying big-headed doll that was being stared at by vultures, and a girl who should have been curvaceous was lying on the haystack like a skeleton.

The whole TV was covered with dry land, thousands of miles away.

Looking at the past, not a single grain of seedlings or weeds grew.

Faced with hunger, people all turned into devils, changing their children to eat each other, and cutting off their flesh to satisfy their hunger.

All humanity and morality were completely shattered in the face of drought And that was just the tragedy of the drought.

From April to June, there were two earthquakes.

Ancient buildings had no ability to withstand earthquakes.

People were confused and panicked when the earth shook violently.

You don’t need to think about the number of people who were killed and maimed by wood or rocks.

You know that there will definitely be countless people.

Next, there was another locust plague that was no less severe than the previous two.

A great locust plague swept through the Guanzhong Plain.

The locusts poured down overwhelmingly, eating up all the seedlings along the way.

Even the trees and weeds could not escape the mouth of the locusts.

The entire Guanzhong Plain was covered with bare land for thousands of miles and starved to death.

Thinking of this, Ma Chao's scalp felt numb.

He knew that once the locusts attacked, the entire Guanzhong would become a hell on earth.

He has never seen the horror of locust plagues, but Ma Chao can recall historical records that say: There are locusts in Guanzhong, eating crops, vegetation, and trees.

The horror of that scene can be imagined.

All the locusts are not eating grass but eating people.

"Husband, why do you look so ugly?"

Liu Yue asked worriedly as she saw Ma Chao staring at the thin Fu Feng paper without blinking, his entire face almost turning pale white.

But Ma Chao didn't have the strength to reply to Liu Yue's concern at this time.

Yes, he is the invincible God of War outside the Great Wall of Yongzhou and a trend-setter in the political whirlpool.

But in the face of this natural disaster, he was suddenly beaten into his original form: he is just a mortal, just like everyone else and completely powerless.

A person who fights against God.

Although he knew the laws of historical development, he also used tricks and worked hard several times to bring the entire Ma family to a height unprecedented in history.

But history also began to retaliate at this moment.

When Ma Chao was ambitious and prepared to recuperate next year, he sent troops to Guanzhong to join the big stage of competition among heroes, but history wanted to use three natural disasters in a row to bring the Ma family back to before liberation.

You know, the entire Yongzhou, after three years of hard work by Ma Chao, has barely reached a population of nearly one million.

Although the area of ​​Sili is not as large as Yongzhou, it has a population of more than three million and a manpower of one million.

It took three years to save an unprecedented catastrophe.

Let's not talk about whether it is worth it.

Even if Ma Chao is determined to save the people, it is still unknown whether he can survive.

And even if the Ma family can survive, it will take at least two to three years to return to the Ma family.

The price at the current level is so great that Ma Chao doesn't even dare to think about it.

"Husband, there are actually words on the back of this letter."

Liu Yue saw that Ma Chao seemed to be in shock and couldn't extricate himself.

When he was at a loss, he suddenly took a look.

Behind it, there was actually a line written in blood. talk.

When Ma Chao heard this, he immediately turned the letter over and saw a line of writing that was much fresher than the previous page.

It said: Ma Chao, it seems that I have lost everything to you, but in fact, you have lost the conscience of humanity. , become a person like me "Liu Xie" Ma Chao angrily tore up the Fufeng paper in his hand and roared: "I will never be as ruthless as you.

You gave up millions of Han people in the Sili area.

I can forgive your incompetence and weakness.

But I will never forgive you for treating me as a cold-blooded person like you."

"Husband, husband!"

Liu Yue was shocked, hugged Ma Chao and cried, "What's wrong with you?

What is written on this?"

Ma Chao's face was gloomy.

He thought for a long time and then said: "Yue'er, you may not believe it, but I tell you that starting from April next year, there will be a severe drought in the Sili area, and people will eat each other.

In June, Ding Chou and Wu Yin will In two days, there were two major earthquakes in Chang'an, and on the day after Yisi, there was another locust plague in the Sili area."

When Liu Yue heard this, her beauty turned pale.

Although she was a princess of the Han Dynasty, she could understand the horror and heaviness of that catastrophe.

At the same time, he could better understand Ma Chao's psychology at this time, and couldn't help but say tentatively: "Why are you so sure, husband?

Next year will be the year of great disaster for Sili.

Could it be that Liu Xie deliberately left Chang'an for this reason?"

Ma Chao took a deep breath, collected his thoughts for a moment, frowned and said: "Liu Xie left Chang'an because he lost Chang'an to me.

However, he was unwilling to lose.

After knowing that Sili was in trouble, he left Chang'an behind.

He wrote this pen to see how I would respond, and he bet that I would be like him and evacuate the Sili area, leaving millions of people in Sili to fend for themselves."

"How could Liu Xie know that Sili will be in great trouble tomorrow?"

Liu Yue slumped down on the dragon bed without any princess style, and murmured: "It's impossible, even though there are many People boast that they know astronomy and geography, but they are all swindlers.

As for Liu Xie, my concubine didn’t even know that he knew the art of divination.”

Ma Chao smiled bitterly.

Liu Xie and him didn't need to know the art of divination and astrology.

The two of them could summarize the history of the next 1,800 years just by recalling it.

There was no need to look at the various substances.

A giant spherical celestial body composed of human beings to predict and speculate on the rights and wrongs of the earth.

After laughing, Ma Chao also sat down on the dragon bed, gently hugged Liu Yue's shoulders, looked at the bright and shining stars in the sky outside the window, and sighed silently in his heart: You can reflect in the sky without any worries.

The sun's rays bring tranquility to the night.

But in the human world, no one knows what kind of doomsday disaster will usher in under such tranquility.

What's even more miserable is that no one in the world knows it, but you are the only one who knows it and has to take responsibility for it.
