Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Chapter 172 Predicting a Major Earthquake

Liu Qi sat in the hall of the county government, Jiang Wan, Chen Wen, Chen Wu, Zhao Yun, Wen Dai, Deng Zhi and other generals sat on both sides. Seeing Liu Qi's serious face, everyone thought that something serious had happened.

Chen Wen is well aware of Liu Qi's temperament, the son has always been a general, and he is a person who will not change his face before the collapse of the mountains. Why is he so preoccupied today?

Liu Qi glanced at the generals, coughed lightly, and said slowly: "To summon everyone urgently today is really a dream last night, which disturbed my mind and made me fear that something might happen."

Chen Wu asked anxiously: "My lord, what dream?"

Liu Qi said: "In the dream, the world is turned upside down, thousands of miles of fertile fields are turned into scorched earth, the villages and cities in Haoduanduan are full of ruins, eyes full of catkins, and countless dead bodies. This dream is miserable and strange. Ask the generals what is good or bad?"

Jiang Wan, Chen Wen and the others looked at each other in shock when they heard this. There is no doubt that this dream is a bad omen!

All of you here are not idle people, they were only slightly shocked, then shook their heads or pinched their fingers to make calculations.

Chen Wu was happy, and said carelessly: "My lord, I remember going to Jiangling to look for swords and staying overnight by the Yangtze River. That night, the sky was full of meteor showers, which foreshadowed that the sky will change. Now the lord's dream is turned upside down, which further confirms that the world is in chaos and the government is not stable , the people are in dire straits, and urgently need the Ming Lord to be born, and the universe is hanging upside down."

Chen Wen looked at Chen Wu in astonishment, he didn't expect Chen Wu to dare to say anything, he was quite able to say it, the implication was obvious, Chen Wu wanted to call on the generals to support Liu Qi as king, could it be that the young master Liu Qi wanted to use the dream Is it possible to become a king on your own with words and will?In today's troubled times, self-proclaimed princes abound, and the wish of the son is not outrageous.

Jiang Wan also thought about it, and peeked at Liu Qi, but saw that Liu Qi did not express his opinion on Chen Wu's words, maybe he was using Chen Wu's words to get the support of the generals?It's just that Xinye has just decided and its wings are still fledgling. It is not yet ripe to support Liu Qi as king, otherwise he will be besieged by the world and put himself in an embarrassment on all sides...

The young man Wen Dai showed excitement, and he got up and clasped his fists at Liu Qi: "The general's words are reasonable, the sky changes in the dream, you must follow the time, Yuan Shu, Gongsun Zan and the vulgar people in the north can stand on their own as kings, and Dong Zhuo's exclusive power in the court is precisely When the heroes of the world raised their poles. The son is a clan member of the Han Dynasty. He raised the banner of protecting the national flag. According to the Xinye separatist side, he defended the court, trained the king's teacher, and performed the king's deeds. He helped the community and brought peace to the people. Blessing, the blessing of the generals."

As soon as Wen Dai's words came out, the four great generals Chen Chun, Chen Xia, Chen Qiu and Chen Dong who stood beside Liu Qi nodded in appreciation. The young master became king, and there is no doubt that the generals will have a wider field of use.

Liu Qi did not show any inclination to Chen Wu and Wen Dai's words, but just quietly looked at everyone in the hall with a smile on his face. Last night's nightmare seemed to be a very distant thing. What do you think?

In fact, when Chen Wu talked about the dream and Wen Dai proposed to use the dream to support Liu Qi to separatize Xinye and become king, Liu Qi kept thinking about the dream.

Judging from the earth-shattering scene in the dream, it was inferred that it was a major earthquake. Thinking of the earthquake, Liu Qi was startled, and quickly flipped through the historical knowledge he had learned in his mind. After exploring it, he was relieved.

Some scholars have studied that the Han Dynasty (206 BC-220 AD) was a period of mass natural disasters in Chinese history, and it was also a period of frequent earthquakes. A major earthquake occurred almost every four years. During the 440 years of Qin and Han Dynasties , Disasters occurred as many as 370 times.There were 81 droughts, 76 floods, and 68 earthquakes, which brought huge disasters to the land of China.

Liu Qi, who survived the catastrophe at the end of the century and traveled through the Eastern Han Dynasty, seems to have an innate ability to predict. This is not unrelated to the historical knowledge learned by later generations. Liu Qi, who does not believe in superstition, knows that this is not a dream, but a gift for advanced creatures on the eve of the earthquake. Human beings have a special ability to foresee disasters. It is estimated that Jiang Wan, Chen Wen and Deng Zhi, who are familiar with astronomy and geography, can also guess the earthquake of the dream master, rather than relying on dreams to become kings on their own as Chen Wu and Wen Dai said. .

In a flash, Liu Qi thought of the many severe droughts and disasters in Henan's history, and thought of the Wenchuan earthquake in later generations, and the frequent earthquakes in the Han Dynasty, and remembered that in the history of the Three Kingdoms, it seems that it happened in June of the second year of Chuping. A big earthquake, what magnitude is the earthquake?Where is the epicenter?There are no detailed records in the history books of how big the disaster was.

The lunar calendar is near the beginning of June. According to the Gregorian calendar, it is estimated that there will be another month or so. I don’t know where the land of China will be hit by this earthquake. Because the history books of later generations have gone through 1800 years, there is no detailed record of this year’s earthquake. Liu Qi can’t tell what will happen. People in the place of the earthquake avoid disasters. It seems that all aspects of the real record of history are also responsible for the people of the past and present.

Relying on the foresight and foresight ability possessed by the rebirth of the Three Kingdoms after crossing, Liu Qi searched his stomach and could remember only a few sentences about the Huaxia Earthquake in 191 AD in the vast sea of ​​history: In the second year of Ping (AD 191), there was an earthquake in Bingxu in June; "Book of the Later Han? Biography of Cai Yong", the earthquake in June of the second year of Chuping, Zhuo (Dong Zhuo) asked Yong (Cai Yong), and Yong said, "The earthquake The excess of yin invades yang, and this is caused by the overreaching of the subordinates."

Due to the limited historical records, Liu Qi’s acquired knowledge of future generations cannot predict the correct source and magnitude of the earthquake in advance. Only God knows whether it happened in Xinye, Henan. In the face of natural disasters, even the future generations with advanced technology are often helpless, not to mention the low productivity. The Han Dynasty?

Seeing Jiang Wan's solemn expression, Liu Qi seemed to hesitate to speak, Liu Qi raised his hand to signal Wen Dai to sit down, pointed to Jiang Wan and said, "Brother Wan, please speak."

Jiang Wan did not shy away from it, and said bluntly: "Young master, it is a good thing that the two generals Shicai Wu and Dai want to make you king, and it will be a matter of time. However, the world is in chaos and Xinye is initially settled. It is not appropriate to reveal their strength prematurely. It is not advisable to become king too early, to avoid making enemies, and even more afraid of being falsely accused, which is not conducive to the son's long-term plans."

Zhao Yun echoed: "What Jiang Sima said is very true. I will train day and night and wait for the time to move. It seems that the time has not come. I still have to hide my strength and bide my time. It is not in a hurry."

Liu Qi nodded, seeing that Jiang Wan avoided talking about the dream, and didn't force him, he turned to Chen Wen and said calmly, "Everyone who likes to express their opinions has only one purpose. , It is the order of me and the generals to benefit the people, let’s not discuss the matter of being king for the time being, as for the tragic image in the dream, let’s discuss the matter, the dream owner is good or bad, what is Brother Wen’s opinion?"

Liu Qi pointed out his name and surname, and treated Chen Wen, who was more intelligent than Zhuge, with courtesy, but saw that Chen Wen had slashed his beard that was more than an inch long. Yu Limin."

When Chen Wen said it, everyone was astonished. Why did this good and bad thing get involved with the young master and the common people?

Liu Qi fixed his eyes on Chen Wen, said oh, knowing that Chen Wen must have something to say, and said: "Brother Wen, tell me."

Chen Wendao: "Young Master's dream, although the scene is miserable, it is a sign of the world turning upside down, a change of dynasty, this dream is from the young master, it is auspicious."

Deng Zhi, who had been silent for a long time, stood up suddenly, bowed to Liu Qi, with an extremely respectful expression, and said: "This dream is auspicious, congratulations, young master."

Although Deng Zhi didn't say much, he made it very clear that the change of the Han Dynasty would definitely come from the son Liu Qi, and it was for advance congratulations. This was Deng Zhi's foresight.

Liu Qi smiled calmly, waved Deng Zhi to sit down, and said: "Brother Wen, where did the evil come from?"

Chen Wen looked worried, and his voice trembled, solemnly said: "The dream is turned upside down, if the dream comes true, there will be an earthquake in China, and countless people and common people will suffer, it is evil."

Jiang Wan looked at Chen Wen admiringly, and interjected: "What the third brother said is very true. In May, there were rumors among the people that in the north of Xinye, thousands of toads migrated in groups, and flocks of wild geese traveled from north to south. There is a tiankeng formed by itself and the river flooding, which seems to be a precursor to an earthquake. It seems that the dream of the young master is the dream of the gods, and let me wait and take precautions."

Deng Zhi then said: "What Jiang Sima said is true. As we all know, there was an earthquake in Guimao in February of the fourth year of Emperor Jianning (AD 171). In June of the second year of Xiping (AD 173), there was an earthquake and another six years. October Xinchou, earthquake. In the first year of Guanghe (AD 178), February Xinwei, earthquake. Almost every three or two years, there will be an earthquake. The dream of the son, [-]% is that there will be another earthquake. Outside of Xinye, thousands of The people of the Li people are starving, and they are about to suffer this catastrophe. It must be because the Yin and Yang of the heaven and the earth are out of balance, so we call for the strongman to come back, so that the mountains and rivers can be suppressed and the people will not suffer."

Chen Wudao: "Earthquakes in famine years are natural disasters, and hunger is a man-made disaster. General Deng said that the strong will come back. Who is the strong? It must be the commander-in-chief of the strong army."

Wen Dai said: "The young master took advantage of the situation before the earthquake to build up momentum, raised his arms, and gathered soldiers from all directions to force Luoyang, and he will surely turn the world around in one fell swoop."

Jiang Wan was a little impatient, arguing with the young Wen Dai: "General Dai's desire to help your son build fame is commendable, and he is indeed a formidable young man. However, the time has not come for Xinye to train troops and gather righteous men from all directions to make trouble, so we should not expose it prematurely. "

Seeing Jiang Wan's insistence on slowing down the incident, Wen Dai respected that Jiang Wan was the son Liu Qi's sworn elder brother, so he couldn't speak too much, so he kept silent, but felt that it was a pity that the son Liu Qi missed the opportunity to raise the flag and raise the incident.

Seeing that Liu Qi didn't make a sound, Jiang Wan turned to Liu Qi and said, "In Brother Yu's opinion, what General Dai said can be used to create momentum. Before the earthquake comes, we can tell the people in Xinye and surrounding counties to prepare for the earthquake. Other counties We can’t control whether to do earthquake prevention or not, but Xinye must prevent problems before they happen.”

Zhao Yun looked at Jiang Wan with admiration, and said, "I also feel the same way as Jiang Sima. The son's dream is better believed in than not. In order to minimize the disaster caused by the earthquake to the people, we should prevent it in advance."

In the meeting hall of the county government, Jiang Wan, Chen Wen, Zhao Yun and other generals said something to you, and I said something to you. Although it is not known whether the earthquake will really happen, in the end, the county magistrate Liu Qi tends to be oriented towards a major earthquake in the near future. Under the circumstances, the generals still reached a consensus. Based on the frequent earthquakes in recent years, we should make various preparations for earthquake prevention while Xinye is still in a temporarily stable environment.

Now that it is predicted that there will be a big earthquake in China in June of the second year of Chuping, Liu Qi can no longer sit idly by bureaucratically. The earthquake is such a terrible thing. Countless villages and fertile fields, countless lives disappear in an instant, that is not the result Liu Qi wants to see.

Just do what you say, Liu Qi issued an emergency order to implement pre-earthquake self-inspection of hidden dangers in dangerous houses throughout Xinye, and the government will fund the guidance and training on earthquake prevention and shock absorption knowledge, requiring ordinary people to simulate how to save themselves when a magnitude [-] earthquake strikes in the actual living environment .
