The Three Kingdoms Began with the Abduction of Luoshen

Chapter 53: ‘Dichlorvos’ (for collection, for recommendation ticket)

In the Yecheng government office.

Xun Yu looked at the report on the table and frowned tightly.

Inexplicable headache.

Not long after Cao Cao led his troops on the expedition, such a major event occurred in Yecheng, and the plague of locusts swept the surrounding areas.

It happened too suddenly.

Therefore, Xun Yu was unprepared, and even a little caught off guard, disrupting the previous deployment.

Xun Yu naturally knew how harmful the locust plague was, but he had to think a lot at this moment.

Ye City has its own food and grass.

But this is the army ration that was collected. Cao Cao led his army to conquer Yuan Tan, and he also needed the supply of food and grass.

Once there is a problem with food and grass, I am afraid that the army will collapse without a fight, which will have a great impact on the situation.

But the people outside the city were affected by the disaster, and the need for food and grass was life-threatening, and life and death were only a matter of thought.

Xun Yu not only guarded the rear, but also was in charge of the logistics of Cao's army. He shouldered a great responsibility.

Of course, Xun Yu could also continue to collect and adjust food and grass.

However, the journey is long, and the food and grass will arrive at an unknown time. Can the people really support it?

Perhaps after four or five days, the people began to suffer from hunger and life became extremely difficult.

After eight or nine days, some people will starve to death, and the famine will spread on a large scale...

What happened next, Xun Yu was a little unimaginable.

Hesitated for a long time.

Xun Yu finally made a decision, he ordered:

"Immediately order the surrounding counties and counties to quickly mobilize food and grass to send them. If anyone dares to disobey the order, they will be killed without mercy!"

Xun Yu's attitude was extremely firm, but his choice was still to send the food and grass in the city to the front line.

He was still able to stabilize the chaos in the rear, but once the front line collapsed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Xun Yu had been assisting Cao Cao for many years, how could it be so easy to bury him in such a difficult situation?

If the world can be wiped out, the Han Dynasty will flourish again.

What if you carry the infamy of the ages?

The food and grass in the city were quickly transported away, and Xun Yu could only hope for a more timely response from various places.

As long as the food and grass are supplied, there will be no major incident, at least the disaster can be stabilized.

Xun Yu sighed and sent someone to investigate.

...

Qingyun Village.

Chen Jue stayed in a secret room with Zhuge Liang standing beside him, with a bit of curiosity in his eyes.

The pesticide composition of later generations is special, how can it be so easy to copy, anyway, Chen Jue has no such ability.

But he has another way to use the current conditions to make low-grade pesticides.

It may not be possible in the future, but it is no problem now.

After all, the pests of later generations are too miserable. They have been beaten by various pesticides, and they have developed resistance.

In other words, today's locusts...

Impatient.

After a period of hard work, Chen Jue finally came up with the powder, which is the final product.

Zhuge Liang came over and said curiously:

"Is this the pesticide the Zhaizhu said?"

Chen Jue waved his hand and said:

"Don't get so close, it's poisonous."

Zhuge Liang quickly shrank back and said hesitantly:

"Can these powders really kill locusts?"

Chen Jue raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile:

"That's natural, you still can't trust the owner of this village?"

Zhuge Liang was surprised and replied:

"Of course not, I just have some doubts."

Looking at Zhuge Liang, Chen Jue said sternly:

"Old Zhu, be careful, the owner of this village is going to name it, it's called dichlorvos."

Hearing this, Zhuge Liang's head was full of question marks:

"Zhaizhu, what do you mean by dichlorvos?"

Chen Jue smiled complacently:

"You don't have to worry about it, let's try it out."

Zhuge Liang nodded helplessly.

Two days have passed since Chen Jue started construction, and Qingyun Village has received many locusts.

Although these are insignificant compared to the plague of locusts, they are good omen.

Chen Jue asked for a group of locusts.

After adding "Dichlorvos" to water, let the locusts eat it, then stand aside and wait for development.

However, it didn't take long for this batch of locusts to "fly on the street".

Zhuge Liang's eyes suddenly lit up and said:

"Zhaizhu, this 'dichlorvos' really works."

Chen Jue put on a calm attitude and replied:

"Calm down, don't make a fuss about this."

In fact, he was also a little complacent. After all, this thing was not easy to come by, and it took him several days.

The effect of this experiment was excellent, and Chen Jue felt quite satisfied, but he did not stop there.

After disposing of the dead locusts, he found another batch of live locusts to continue the poison experiment.

After doing it back and forth several times, the effect is so outstanding that Chen Jue can finally relax.

Chen Jue said with satisfaction:

"With this 'dichlorvos', locusts are not worth mentioning."

Zhuge Liang pondered:

"If you want to take medicine now, I am afraid you need to go to explore first and make preventive preparations in advance."

Although the locusts are flying everywhere, they all have the same goal, only by spraying the medicine on the front.

When they have finished eating the crops, they are basically cold, and the locust plague will naturally be solved by the way.

Chen Jue nodded and said:

"Old Zhu, you are right, this matter must be dealt with first, lest there will be another accident."

But soon, Chen Jue said again:

"But this matter is not urgent. There are other things in the past few days. You can find the locust's nest first."

Zhuge Liang replied:

"This matter is entirely up to the owner of the village. It is not too late to destroy the locust's nest."

The two smiled at each other.

I don't have much affection for locusts.

Locusts are pests after all.

...

The countermeasure has been determined, and Chen Jue sent someone to look for it.

Locusts prefer to lay eggs in dry wastelands.

As long as you grasp this feature, it is not difficult to find a target, although Chen Jue is too lazy to go into battle.

After a few days of exhaustion, Chen Jue returned to the room to rest.

Zhen Mi was quite distressed and said:

"Husband really spent too much energy for the locust plague, so let's have a good rest today."

Chen Jue smiled and said:

"Miss don't have to worry, my husband is fine."

Zhen Mi stopped talking.

Chen Jue could only close her eyes with a wry smile.

It really hurts to have a liver burst for a few days.

After spending a whole day, Lin San and the others finally found the locust lair hidden in the barren mountains.

After learning the news, Chen Jue hurriedly asked:

"Did you really find it?"

Lin San sighed:

"How dare I lie to the village master, there are so many eggs over there, it looks too scary."

Chen Jue was stunned, nodded and said:

"Since the locust nest has been found, I will wait to solve it earlier to avoid endless troubles in the future."

Zhuge Liang agreed, saying:

"Choosing a day is worse than hitting the sun, we'll go today."

Chen Jue asked people to bring their equipment, hurried over, and finally saw those insect eggs.

As Lin San described, the densely packed area looks really disgusting.

Chen Jue snorted coldly and said:

"Let's do it now."

According to Chen Jue's instructions, the villagers first sprinkled some medicine on it, and then set it on fire directly.

Of course, Chen Jue has taken fire prevention measures.

The tree near the eggs was cut down, and the flames naturally did not leak, only surrounding the core position.

I saw the flames burning brightly, illuminating the hearts of everyone.

Unfortunately, the smell was a bit unpleasant, so they hurried away.

Numerous insect eggs were wiped out!
