Section 222 Natural Disaster 1 – Grassland

Xiao Liu Tong knew that Zhao Yue was extremely vigilant, except for his mother and a few people, Zhao Yue didn't believe anyone, including his father, because Zhao Dayou was first a filial son, followed by a king, father, and husband, and listened to his mother, and Mrs. Ning might not really care about Zhao Yue's interests at a critical time.

Zhao Yue is very ruthless, and it is not an exaggeration to use iron and stone heart, but at the same time, he tolerates and rescues the people of the world as much as possible, including those wild and untrained ignorant aliens who are worthy of transformation and acceptance within the target, and the means are more violent, and what actually brings these aliens is an epoch-making new life with a bright future, showing a great compassion like a saint.

Zhao Yue's extremely contradictory and fierce personality traits are very clear in the heart of Zhang Yihui, the mother who raised Zhao Yue carefully.

The god stick Dao is immeasurable, and he can see through it.

Wuliang said to the confused Zhang Yihui: "There are two levels of great leaders. One is the coldness of mercy, and the other is the coldness of compassion. The two are wordplay that seem to have similar meanings, but they are very different. The coldness of compassion is still coldness in the final analysis. Cold compassion is compassion at the end of the day. From ancient times to the present day, there have been great kings who have achieved merciful cruelty. But no king has ever been able to achieve the realm of cold mercy, in addition to being limited by the times, selfishness, and ability deficiencies. ”

Governing the country requires unacceptable ruthlessness. Needless to say.

The ruthlessness of mercy, the king at this level has compassion and love for the people, but in order to achieve some goals, such as war, such as to establish the ideal of a great power or a great king in his heart, he will let people die without mercy, no matter how much he dies without blinking, he will detain the dedication and sacrifice of all people, forcibly use them as cattle and horses, nails, masonry, and weapons at will, and even sacrifice them as a matter of course when the sacrifices they abandon are starved to death and exhausted, and how much they die is only a number on paper. No matter how miserable he is, he won't really regret himself, he really cares, he only cares about his goals. As long as it is beneficial to his ideals, then everything is worth it. Whether people in the world are willing to live like a tool and sacrifice like that, he doesn't care, he will say that for XXX, for the sake of long-term planning, he has to do this. The great achievements in the annals of history are the result of coldness. Cold compassion is not. He has a truly compassionate and benevolent human heart for the world, and he really cares about the happiness and honor of the people in the world as much as he does. The most important thing is that he has the ability to lead the people without such a long period of time, as miserable as cattle and horses, and sacrifice and dedication can make the country and the nation strong, and can make the soldiers defeat all enemies without dying so much. This requires not only extremely high political wisdom, but also the development of science and technology, which is the foundation for a country and nation to become strong and prosperous, into a supreme capability. ”

Those who do not have the ability to develop science and technology strongly, do not have the ability to make the people rich, and have no ability to rob the wealth of outsiders, supplement the country, and reduce the burden on the people, blindly use foolish means to prevent the people from "waking up" and resisting the endless ruthless exploitation and disguised enslavement, blindly emphasizing that the people must dedicate and sacrifice, be humble to the outside world, have the demeanor of a great country, and even have love

The Immeasurable Dao Chief said, "Mother of the Nation, you have given birth to the most outstanding son of all time. He is the one who can be ruthless and compassionate. Our generation of citizens has caught up with the time, and it is blessed, so blessed. No matter how wonderful and absurd the dream Poor Dao used to be, I never thought that we Chinese people could have today's happiness and beauty, if anyone wanted to harm Brother Yue'er, Poor Dao and him were incompatible, and they would never die."

Zhao Yue didn't know that there would be such a secret conversation between his mother and the Infinite Dao Master.

For the first time, he put down everything, and only concentrated on accompanying his parents and relatives to be happy, concentrating on playing with his girlfriend, swimming in the sea, camping and barbecue, strolling on the beach in the morning and setting sunset, riding a horse, picking fruits and flowers, golf, yachts, swings, movies, shopping and taking pictures, and having crazy fun.

The heart and liver that I have been worried about all day long are by my side, and Zhao Yue can finally really have fun when he goes out to play, and the smile on his face, big or small, has never been broken.

Zhao Yue's girlfriend feels as if she has returned to the time when the two of them were young and frivolous in love, but they were extremely sweet and difficult to give up, and they were happy, the only regret is that Zhao Yue was too good to her, too accommodating to her, too accustomed to her wishes. In his previous life, Zhao Yue was not like this, he would always love her while often deliberately making her angry or even angry. And she will also play tricks on him from time to time in her life of taking good care of him, embarrassed and angry. This is a kind of joy of life, and it is also a battle of wits between the two. Contest and conquest have always been present in his and her love. Zhao Yue likes silly and sweet girls, but he will not marry such a girl as a wife. He needed a wise lover who could grasp his intentions with a look and a subtle hint. Later, Zhao Yue's desire to return to the country became more and more urgent, and he couldn't abandon her ruthlessly, so he subconsciously became more and more disgusted and left automatically. But she knew him too well and saw through it, so she just didn't let him get it. Now, Zhao Yue's mentality has changed, and he is undoubtedly compensating her wholeheartedly, which is very good, but it is not the vivid, interesting, and natural perfect love that she wanted in her previous life. Zhao Yue didn't really owe her anything. Life shouldn't be like this either

The happiest is the little demon princess.

This younger sister adopted by Zhao Yue with pity for a while turned out to be a girl with a high IQ, and Zhao Yue and his girlfriend and mother taught casually in their spare time, plus the teacher intermittently went to the home system to coherent the content of the textbook, this child did not go to school for a day, and the main time every day was to eat and play, and he had mastered the knowledge far beyond his peers. The level of the little demon is enough to go to the third or even fourth junior high school in Zhao Yue's previous life, and he is a scholar, and his demon has shocked too many people's eyes.

And the little girl's actual age was only four years old when she met Zhao Yue.

At that time, although she was thin, she grew tall, one was genetic, her parents were both big men, and the other was also because the elder of the Jurchen tribe who brought her to live was strict and even cruel to her, but he also tried to take care of her so that she could eat more meat and milk and grow her body. The little guy was too early and sensible, in order to show that he was a big child and useful not to be abandoned, he lied to Zhao Yue that she was six years old, so that Zhao Yue's mother and son later knew the truth and hugged the little demon and felt sad. Now a few years have passed, and the little demon is only at the age of elementary school. If you study hard, the little one should be able to go to college at the age of ten, and it is a top science university.

There are geniuses like gods.

The IQ gap can be so big that it's desperately large.

Because they don't love going to school, they don't have to go to school, Zhao Dayou and Zhang Yihui love her and don't force her, the little demon will be free, and at this time, he can play crazy every day.

Brother, brother's cry of joy, crisp children's voice, carefree laughter.

The little demon finally believed in this home, forgot the horror and vigilance and the sinister suffering of the past, and completely restored the innocence and carefree nature of a happy child.

And Zhao Yue's nephews and nieces, although the eldest ones are all smart, they have to go to school hard, and only during the holidays can they have the opportunity to play crazy with them.

Compared to their parents, children prefer Zhao Yue. Zhao Yue is actually impatient with the little kid, but this just doesn't affect the children like him.

Just when Zhao Yue was so relaxed and happy that he almost got carried away, the immeasurable Taoist and Zhao Yue's master, who had been shopping around the mainland for a few months, came back and recruited Zhao Yue to say something.

"This year the weather is abnormal."

As usual, the immeasurable path chief said.

In the Song Kingdom, there is less rain in the south, and many of the streams everywhere in the south of the Yangtze River have dried up, but on the whole, it has little impact on crops and people's lives. In the north, there is a lot of rain, and even the northwest interior, which has always been dry and short of water, seems to have a lot of rain, but there are also more storm disasters, but on the whole it is a happy harvest year, and the tenacious weeds are growing wildly.

Last year, the vast no-man's land between the New Western Army and the interior of the Great Song Dynasty caused by the pirate army looting the Western Army has become a green and forest zone, the grassland is the same, the wild grass (pasture) in many places is so lush that it is really to the extent that the wind blows the grass and the cattle and sheep are low, and it has become a (man-made) excellent pasture that the herdsmen will like to go crazy, but the wild beasts that wander and disappear in the middle are also much more unprecedented, there are many poisonous snakes, fierce wild boars, wild wolves in groups, this is terrible enough, there is no shortage of leopards, bears and even tigers in the northwest that seem to be there at all, It has become a real wilderness and dangerous area, which makes the cowardly and timid Song people more and more afraid to enter this no-man's land, of course, there are no cattle, sheep and livestock to graze, so there is no need to go. Even the transportation of supplies escorted by the army, which the imperial court had to supply some of the western army's requests for to maintain relations with the warlords in the northwest, was temporarily suspended.

This year, it seems that the heavens are deliberately caring for the Song Dynasty, which has suffered too much from pirate looting.

The Song Dynasty was lucky, and the Liao Kingdom in the north was unlucky.

The Liao State also suffered from the crazy sacking of pirates, and the losses were too heavy, in fact, it was even worse than the Song State, and it almost suddenly became an agricultural country that had to be made from a powerful nomadic country with invincible cavalry. But Heaven did not sympathize with it at all, and seemed to be extremely disgusted with it, and no longer blessed it to come back to life.

Last year, the amount of snowfall on the grassland was greatly reduced, which will seriously affect the snow water in the coming year, and the grassland will be green and green, and as a result, there has been almost no rain since the beginning of spring this year, and it has only been a wet ground with loud thunder but short and insignificant rain. The weeds greedily sucked up the snow and water that had been evaporated from the sun, and grew, and fed the cattle of the steppe that had been hungry for a winter, and then fell into a drought, and gradually fell into the same yellowish as late autumn, and the livestock began to starve, and the direct threat was that people did not eat. And the drought seems to be just the beginning, not yet when the evaporation is greater and the sun can dry out in the summer, when the weather is hot.

In history, the Liao State suffered from this terrible drought that was feared and difficult to encounter in the grassland for hundreds of years, and suffered a heavy blow that could not be cured by natural disasters, suffered heavy losses of people, horses and livestock, and the national strength plummeted by several percent. The proud Khitans became Jurchen slaves.

People say that heaven and man correspond, and if there is a traitor and a great evil in the world, there will be a natural disaster. If the king commits immorality and iniquity, and if the ruling class is corrupted, and if the heavens have a sense, he will manifest a terrible natural disaster, prove that his country has a damned calamity, a great evil, a great evil, and hasten the destruction of his corrupt rule and the loss of his pleasures.

Looking back at history, it seems that this is really the case.

Look at the Liao State, which was definitely the largest country in the world during the Song Dynasty. Look at the Ming Dynasty, which is still the absolute largest country in the world.

The former is the absurdity of the king, the ruling class falls into the pleasure of weakness and weakness, and feels that the civilization of the country is advanced and its own elegance and arrogance, but it has lost the foundation of its foothold - brave and good at fighting and not afraid of death. The latter is the shameless and cowardly hypocrites formed by Confucianism, the invincible scholars everywhere, the scholars and doctors control the country, override the emperor, occupy countless fields, and fill their pockets, but they are full of justice, honesty, seriousness, and dedication to the public "Zhongzheng Ying Dynasty", regardless of the life and death of the country and the people, play with the army, and despise and abandon the foundation of Chinese civilization - advanced scientific and technological civilization. It has also become vulnerable. They are all desperately selfish, corrupt, hedonistic, self-harming, and dying, and they have accelerated their demise from natural disasters.

However, in this world, the Liao State seems to be a blessing in disguise, and it is not as devastating as in history.

Zhao Yue's family has continued to rob and loot the Han people of the Liao State over the years, until the Han people other than the traitors loyal to the Liao State have been looted. There are no Han people to cultivate and weave cloth. Step by step, the Khitan people who forced the herding had to divide more and more people to learn to farm and gradually become proficient, and now there are a large number of Khitan people who can farm and get grain to eat.

The livestock were looted by pirates and almost cleaned, and the countless cattle, sheep, horses, and camels that were originally going to starve to death in the grassland did not have to die in pieces, because they could not eat and rot in vain, Zhao Yue's strategic plan inadvertently saved these grassland lives and obtained valuable livestock wealth, so that the livestock industry that the pirate country attaches great importance to was comprehensively promoted throughout the country, and there was abundant capital, plus those that were snatched or invaded from other parts of the world, and the people also had cattle and sheep to graze, horse-drawn carts, cattle and horses to cultivate. And the Liao State did not have to worry about the loss of livestock as if they were going extinct under the drought, they had food to eat, and they could farm the land, and they did not have to rely heavily on animal husbandry.

There is an extremely important factor in this: the grassland is in drought, and a pole of smoke everywhere has become a place of death. However, the Yanyun area, the grain production base of the Liao State, and the Liaodong Peninsula region, which was recovered by taking advantage of the pirates' looting of the population of the Bohai State this spring, were not in a severe drought, and even rained as much as the northern Song State. Wheat beans grow well and will have a good harvest. There are also drought-tolerant and high-yield crops such as potatoes and many vegetable varieties that Zhao Yue's family flowed out to supplement food. The Liao State will not have the tragic situation of starvation to death of a large number of people in history.

However, the grassland miscellaneous Hu who wandered outside the strict rule of the Liao State was unlucky.

They are very experienced in the snow disaster and drought that the grassland people fear the most, and they have been prepared for the severe drought in the spring of this year from last year's snowfall and the sharp decrease.
