Chapter 185 Can't Let the Locust Leave Songjiang County Alive

When the employees of the various factories heard that the locust plague was approaching, they ran home anxiously.

Hurry up, hurry up, go back and help the family harvest rice and reduce losses.

Those who have never farmed will not understand what it feels like to be in vain after half a year of hard work.

It is said that there is food in hand and there is no panic. In this era of backward productivity, this is the lifeblood of the people.

Hope the locusts turn around and go somewhere else.

But when they went to other places, other people also suffered.

Li Mo stayed in the study all the time, desperately recalling the methods of controlling the locust plague that he had read before.

Is it realistic to put chickens, ducks and geese?

Now let's not know how many locusts there are, hundreds of thousands or millions?

During the long journey, the locusts will continue to reproduce.

Chickens, ducks and geese prefer to eat scattered locusts. Once such large-scale locusts are found, they can't eat them at all. Besides, these chickens, ducks and geese don't have regular training, so they can only eat a few at most. For locust plagues, they can't afford it at all. to any effect.

The locusts ate up the crops and flew away immediately, not waiting for chickens, ducks and geese to eat it.

To defeat the locust plague, we cannot rely on the strength of only one person, and it is not just a matter of the yamen, but a matter of everyone in Songjiang County.

The locusts can fly 150 kilometers a day. After deducting the time when Huangpuxuan received the letter, it is guessed that the locust disaster is about 800 miles away from Songjiang County, which is about 400 kilometers. The time left for Li Mo is only about 2 days.

Now the villagers are rushing to harvest, hoping to reduce some losses, otherwise even this year's tax payment will be a problem.

Li Mo remembered the method recorded in Zhang Jixin's "Daoxian Officials' Floating Records" that he had read before: the method of catching locusts is like marching.Take ten people as a team. Two people hold shovels and dig a long trench more than ten feet long, three or four feet deep.After six people, the two used long-handled leather palms to kill those who were not clean.
"Chunfan!"

"exist!"

"Notify the manager of the pesticide factory and prepare the pesticide."

"Yes"

The employees of the pesticide factory have all gone home on vacation to harvest the rice, but the manager is still there. There must be no one watching in the factory. The employees suddenly leave their jobs. There are still many follow-up procedures that have not been processed. The manager has to finish the work.

This is the responsibility and obligation of the steward.

Li Mo looked at Huangpuxuan who was sitting beside her quietly watching her, saying nothing: "How many people do you have?"

Huangpuxuan's lowered eyebrows moved slightly: "Thirty thousand."

Some of the 5 people brought in at the beginning have already returned to southern Xinjiang.

Li Mo: "Call all the people in charge, and I will arrange the method of catching and killing locusts."

Huangpuxuan smoothly brushed the wind-blown hair from her temples for her, and said: "It's all up to you."

Li Mo glared at him: "Don't make any moves."

Huangpuxuan smiled, but did not respond to her, and asked Qiu Yu to call someone in.

Li Mo spread out the map of Songjiang County, which was drawn after she visited all the corners of Songjiang County after she came. The three-dimensional technique was used, and the marks on it were clear, which looked real.

Huangpuxuan took a deep look at Li Mo, how many treasures are still waiting for him to dig.

Thinking of how many surprises and surprises this woman had given him, Huang Puxuan was not surprised at all.

That's right, if Li Mo can do it, then it's not surprising. Li Mo herself is different from ordinary women, and even ordinary men are not as good as her in case.

Occasionally, Huangpuxuan felt that Li Mo seemed to be someone from outside this world, descending suddenly with a whole body of mystery.

There are too many special things about her, too many inconceivable things, including her treacherous medical skills, miraculous officialdom, and many other things that he has never heard of or heard of.

Huangpuxuan slowly retracted his gaze, and his eyes stopped on the teacup on the table. This is tea, not wine, but he wants to treat it like wine, so as to calm his beating heart.

I have doubts in my heart, but I know that now is not the time to ask these questions.

Li Mo looked at the officers, no, it should be said that he was a general in the army, as if he had returned to the scene of the army back then, he was a little stunned for a while.

Huang Puxuan frowned, put his hand under the table, squeezed her wrist, and tightened his fingers.

Li Mo felt a force on her wrist, and looked down, only to find that the man was holding her hand, and was about to scold someone. When she saw so many people present, she realized that she was the one who called someone to come to the meeting.

Li Mo told everyone what he thought, and planned to beat him with bamboo rafts or wooden boards.

It would be better to have fishing nets, but the holes in the nets are too large, which is not conducive to fishing. It is a bit unrealistic to buy them back for processing, because I don’t know where there are so many nets for sale, anyway, Songjiang County does not have them!

It's too late to go too far.

However, there are many bamboos in Songjiang County, and basically every household can weave bamboo products.

3 people, an average of two people hold a bamboo raft to stop the first wave of locusts. The people in the first row overturn the bamboo raft and crush the locusts to death, followed by the people in the second row, and the people in the third row.

But there is another problem to consider here, the locust does not fly at a low level and rush directly, waiting for you to kill it.

But flying in the air, if the flying height exceeds the height of a person and the height of the bamboo raft, what should we do at this time?
Li Mo's idea is that locusts only eat green things when they see them. Then, they are about to land, and this is the best time to kill them.

Pressed with bamboo rafts, beaten with objects, sprayed with pesticides, set on fire, etc.

All conceivable methods must be used, and all personnel must go into battle, regardless of men, women, or children.

First of all, we need to make tools for catching and killing locusts. 3 people need a lot of tools.

Although you are not carpenters, it is very simple to make these bamboo rafts or battered plantain fans, all you need is a knife.

On that day, 3 horses were stationed in various villages, led by yamen servants.

The villagers were only focused on going to the fields, and no one paid attention to the arrival of these strangers.

The people in the county noticed it, and no one dared to say anything when they saw that the county magistrate was carrying it himself.

And these people didn't bother them, and ordered meals from the restaurant, which made the restaurant owners very happy.

The factory was on holiday, and everyone left, but some people were from the county town. They didn’t farm at home, and they thought they had nothing to do anyway, so they gathered in the yamen again, hoping to do their part.

The master was so moved, look, this is the people of our Songjiang County.

There are also relatives in the village, and they go directly to the village with a sickle to help relatives harvest rice.

Most of the bamboo and trees in the village are owned by the owner. I asked the village chief which ones were unowned, and he cut them down.

According to the direction from which the locusts flew, Wangjia Village was the first to be affected, but who can guarantee that with so many locusts, you know where their routes are going.

According to the information provided by Huangpuxuan, the locusts have reached the range of Yunning City, and if nothing unexpected happens, they will reach Songjiang County tomorrow.

The yamen stayed up all night that night, keeping an eye on the movements of the locusts and notifying the people around them.

It doesn't mean that locusts only live in rural areas. There are also flowers, plants and trees in county towns.

As long as they see something to eat, they will fly down and sweep away, so the county town still cannot escape the fate of being attacked by locusts.

Li Mo asked all the shops to be closed and closed for one day, and the doors of the houses at home to be closed. No matter adults or children, as long as they can move, they should be ready to kill locusts at any time.

It can be said that everyone in Songjiang County is a soldier, and no one can stay out of it in the face of a catastrophe.

Li Mo didn't sleep, and went directly to the village. The village he was in was Wang's Village.

I have already greeted the village head and villagers of each village. For their own homes, everyone must be ready to fight at any time.

According to the habits of locusts, they only come out during the day, so the first half of the night should be safe, and the villagers can take this time to take a good rest, and they must be in place before dawn.

But there is no [-]% guarantee, someone must stand guard.

When it was almost dawn, Li Mo looked at the startled villagers who were discussing together, and looked at the handsome man beside him: "How long do you think the locusts will come?"

Beside Li Mo, a tall man in a black robe stood tall, with his hands behind his back, a pair of dark eyes, through the night, towards the opposite side of the farmland.

There, soldiers in military uniforms surrounded the farmland of the entire village and stood ready.

When Li Mo wanted to go up to check, Huangpuxuan pulled her away and dragged her out of the farmland.

Li Mo: "What are you doing?" After finishing the sentence, he turned around and walked to the ridge next to him.

As soon as he took a step, Huangpuxuan grabbed Li Mo's wrist and grabbed her!

Li Mo looked at him puzzled, but under the hazy moonlight, he could only see the faint light on his face flickering on and off.

The man's appearance is very good, even though Li Mo has seen it many times, he is still amazed by Huangpuxuan occasionally.

Men's good looks are different from women's. Women pay attention to femininity, but men pay attention to rigidity.

Huangpuxuan is a tough man. Huangpuxuan is a soldier. He has fought in wars and been on many battlefields, commanding hundreds of thousands of troops!
Even though he temporarily restrained his aura in this peaceful countryside, the iron aura in his body would still leak out from time to time!
At this moment, the Huangpu Pavilion under the moon has lost the seriousness and vigor of the sun in the daytime, and has more coolness and indifference that reflect the moonlight. It seems that it is inexplicably... delicious.

Li Mo turned her head quickly, and sighed secretly that she had been single for more than 20 years in her previous life, and she had never been hungry or thirsty. Why can't she stand being teased in ancient times?

The question is, did Huangpuxuan tease her?Is it time for me to start a family when I am old?
Huang Puxuan didn't notice Li Mo's abnormality, only saw her suddenly turn her head away, her movements were hasty and weird.

Li Mo coughed to cover up his uneasiness, and said in a low voice on purpose: "It's okay."

Huangpu Xuan: "..."

Li Mo turned her head and asked calmly, "Why did you drag me here?"

Huang Puxuan looked closely at Li Mo's eyebrows and eyes for a while, but he didn't know if it was an illusion, he only saw the abnormal blush on her cheeks.

It was too dark, even if Huangpuxuan had good night vision, it couldn't see clearly.

Li Mo has already urged: "Ask you, talk."

But Huangpuxuan took her hand: "Before dawn, you can rest for a while, there is still a tough battle to be fought tomorrow, you must conserve your energy."

Li Mo pointed to the surrounding environment: "No way, how can you sleep with so many mosquitoes here?"

Huangpuxuan's deep voice sounded: "I will hold you (anti-harmony) to sleep."

Li Mo: "..."

...

When the sky was gray, everyone was discussing livelyly there, why didn't the damned locusts go to other places, why did they have to come to Songjiang County, it was really hateful.

Li Mo had already given the order, the locusts were killed immediately, and everyone went all out.

Sure enough, before the sun came out, he suddenly heard the sound of vibrating wings that made his scalp tingle.

Someone exclaimed: "The locusts are coming."

The village chiefs of each village shouted: "The locusts are coming, everyone get ready."

Li Mo looked up at the sky, and the locusts that covered the clouds and the sun were also stunned.

I have only seen on TV before, the tragic situation of the people after the locust plague, but I have never seen so many locusts with my own eyes.

Li Mo calmly ordered: "Everyone take their places, get ready, kill!"

Huang Puxuan put his hand on Li Mo's back and used his internal force to make Li Mo's voice spread farther.

Looking at Li Mo's firm and calm expression, everyone seemed to see hope, and they were no longer panicked like before.

The locusts flew into the rice field, and in an instant, the rice field was densely packed with locusts, and only the sound of 'cha-cha' gnawing was heard in the rice field.

In the rice fields, vegetable gardens, and forests, there are locusts.

Those locusts are not afraid of people, they keep flying, maybe because there are too many of them!

The overwhelming locusts make people feel numb.

However, vegetable gardens and rice fields have the most locusts, which may be related to the habits of locusts.

Seeing their rice fields and vegetable gardens being eaten, the villagers were heartbroken. This is not the time to be sad. They should turn their grief into strength and kill these culprits.

According to the previous exercise, the [-] soldiers cooperated tacitly, and in groups of two, they rushed up with the bamboo raft, threw it, killed a large area, quickly picked it up, and smashed it again.

Everyone's face is wrapped with a cloth towel, fearing that they will be accidentally inhaled when spraying pesticides.

No one is idle, old people and children play.

At this time, ten villages in Songjiang County became large-scale slaughterhouses.

The villagers were red-eyed and kept waving the tools in their hands.

Fortunately, Li Mo told the villagers that no matter how tired the farm work is, they must immediately make tools for hunting.

Now everyone has a bamboo fan or a wooden plaque in their hands. These tools can be handled by one person. If you slap them, a bunch of locusts will die!
Huangpuxuan even used his internal strength to slap him, killing a large number of people.

Li Mo originally wanted to use explosives to kill these locusts directly, but with so many locusts and such a large area, how much explosives would be used, and such a large amount was afraid of accidentally blowing up people.

Moreover, it is difficult to restore the land that has been bombed by explosives, which is harmful to the production of crops.

After an unknown amount of time, everyone felt exhausted, but the continuous stream of locusts was still flying over desperately, as if they couldn't finish killing them.

At this moment, a large group of people rushed over in a mighty manner.

They held all kinds of tools in their hands and didn't speak. They beat locusts when they saw them along the way.

It was getting dark gradually, and there were very few locusts flying in the sky.

Li Mo lay directly on the ground, regardless of the fact that the ground was full of locust corpses. Due to the drought, there was no water in the rice fields, otherwise Li Mo would be lying on the mud!

Panting heavily, really unable to move any more, Huang Puxuan silently came to Li Mo's side, using his internal strength to breathe out her breath.

　This chapter is very poorly written. I saw the method of killing locusts when I was a child. I hope everyone will forgive me.
