Although East Africa is theoretically the radiation range of Rome, and there are even two vassal states mixed next to it, the locals did not realize how big the matter was when they found locusts. After all, the desert locusts in this place are famous, but they will not cause disasters most of the time. In addition, the locals mainly focus on how to deal with the tide of African beasts, so the first one to discover that locusts were caused by the Han family.

"Is this the so-called local locust?" Wang Lang looked at the locusts caught by his subordinates and asked strangely, "This place in Africa is too evil. The locusts are twice as big. Is it a bit too outrageous?"

Nonsense, how can locusts that are not big enough fly from Africa to the Persian Gulf, and then rage in Central Asia, rush to South Asia and then rage again. Some talented people can even directly rush to Xinjiang and Yunnan in China. You must know that it is a normal world without the alienation of the essence of heaven and earth.

"Are the local locusts so big?" Yuan Xin, who had just crawled back from the world, looked at the African locusts and felt it was outrageous. How could I say that the number of people in the world was extremely large. The stunner who rushed up and shaking the mountains did not have the impact on Yuan Xin as much as these locusts.

"No, there are some local locusts that are bigger than this. All you see is a small locust." Yang Chen sneered, then picked up a cage and handed it to Yuan Xin, which shocked Yuan Xin for a thousand years. Damn, locusts can grow to the size of a palm, what did you eat!

"Is this a locust plague going to happen?" Wang Lang asked relatively sensitively.

Because it is in Africa, I don’t know much about the climate and environment here. If you really want to say that locusts are ordinary insects, you can see them anywhere. However, this time there are relatively many, but they have not reached the level of locust plague. In addition, when the locust plague was in the Central Plains before, there were families who specialized in this thing to shout and inform. Even the Ganshi family, when there were warm winter and warm spring rains, they would make preventive notifications of half a year in advance.

However, in Africa, there was no such notification at all. Wang Lang and others had never thought about the locust plague, because over the past few hundred and thousands of years, there were signs of locust plagues. Since their families should have received the news that they should be storing their lives to stock up on grain and guns.

Therefore, when African locusts were flying around, the group of aristocratic families who were mingling locally did not realize that the first wave of locust plague had actually taken shape in East Africa. The locusts on their side were also affected by pheromones and began to develop wildly. They just felt that there were really many locusts in Africa this year, and they were so big. They were very delicious when they were fried.

Chen Zhe, a researcher in the Chen family in Africa, was thrilling to collect locusts. Local locusts grow so well. It is really pleasant to raise geese locally. It is a lot of money to buy and sell, but it is really fun. Fried locusts by the way is really delicious.

The Wu family was confused about the number of locusts, but they did not realize that the locust plague was approaching.

Zhang, Cui, Xie, Xiao, Han Baishen and others have many Han families who are hang out in Africa. For these families, even if they do not covet the African territory and just want to take root in Central Asia, they will follow up when other families go to Africa to cause trouble.

There is no other meaning. For these families, it doesn’t matter what other families do. Anyway, we will do whatever you do. Even if our family has zero research ability, we can follow up and copy this one and that one, and finally synthesize one of our own.

No matter how technology is, we will follow us anyway. Whether technology or not technology is not important. The important thing is to follow you. There is not much cost. As long as you can follow you, even if you can't get into the forefront, at least you won't be eliminated.

Even families like Guo, Yin and Liu are almost exterminated. After finally recovering, they sent people to follow them. Anyway, the investment of a few people can still be squeezed out. Just follow them. As long as they are not left behind, everything is easy to say.

However, many families are close to East Africa, but none of them realize that the locust plague is coming. They just think that the locusts are so big and many of them this year.

"Is it going to happen?" Lacli Lake, the commander of the Thirty Eagle Flag Legion, looked at the researchers sent by the Senate, and frowned as the report written by the other party on straw paper.

"The locust plague should be happening, but the problem is not big. It is south of the Kushi Kingdom, and it has little to do with us, and will be affected at most." said the Climate Research Specialist sent by the Senate.

"So, I will send a notice to the Kingdom of Kushi to prevent them. You will also send a notice to the Senate and ask them to make a plan." Laclirek said almost without thinking. This is his responsibility. Although the locust plague may have taken shape south of the Kingdom of Kushi and have little impact on Rome, the warnings given will still be carried out.

The researcher was silent for a while, but finally didn't speak. He actually wanted to suggest that Laclirek ignore this matter and let the locust plague rush into the Kushi Kingdom and directly explode the Kushi Kingdom. Then the Roman divine weapon fell from the sky and absorbed the Kushi Kingdom without any trouble. In this way, the Red Sea port was completely included in Rome's management, which was different from the previous situation.

However, Lacli Lake has already spoken, and the researcher is not able to directly deny the proposal of the Eagle Eagle Legion Commander, so he can only let Lacli Lake implement it.

Little did they know that this operation not only saved his life as a dog, but also saved countless lives.

In April of the tenth year of Yuanfeng, the Han Dynasty sent internal energy to the Roman Senate to carry detailed research data and the volume estimate of the locust plague formation.

At the same time, the Gan family and the Shi family directly sent the chief personnel to inform the major families in Central Asia, Cao Cao in Kandahar, and the major families in the middle and lower reaches of the Ganges River to prepare for possible prevention of locust plagues. Although Chen Xi thought it was too late to notify this time, he still had to do his best.

In addition, Gan Bao and Shi Tao finally found the possible scale data of the locust plague in East Africa from Chen Xi's mouth - the scale of the last wave of collective dispatch may be greater than 200 billion.

This data is Chen Xi's inferred data, but the Gan family and Shi family have the current estimate of locusts in eastern Africa. The problem is that this estimate is close to the tens of millions of locust outbreaks.

As data before the outbreak, the first round of outbreaks was almost multiplied by 40 times, which means that the first round would have at least one billion. In the second round, due to food problems, the survival of the fittest was eliminated. The surviving locusts had stronger combat power, larger size, and more abnormal flight ability. However, the outbreak data may be only twenty times that of the first round, which is 20 billion.

As for the third round, which is the last round of summer, further due to food problems, survival of the fittest, the locusts that survived are all fighters among the locusts. The average size and quality will basically be the largest in the same year, and the toxicity will be the strongest, but the ratio will decrease again, and it is estimated that it will be only 200 billion yuan. Of course, this is actually a conservative estimate.

Because of the locust plague, if there is a large-scale rainfall between the first and second rounds, and between the second and third rounds, causing the plants to develop again, then the locusts will have sufficient food in the larval stage, reducing the cruelty of survival of the fittest. In the end, the size and combat effectiveness of the locusts that develop will decrease, but the scale...

There have been trillions of locust plagues in human history!

To be honest, after the scale reaches one trillion, the combat power of a single locust is basically meaningless, just do it, and even the wood can be chewed.

According to Chen Xi's estimate, if it is a locust with a scale of 200 billion, the Han Dynasty will be at most end in Central Asia and the Palacioles, and the Ganges and New South Wales will suffer slightly. If the last wave of scale is completed to one trillion, then wait for Guanlong and Sichuan to suffer also.

However, if it really reaches trillions of dollars, Rome will be the first to be finished. The grain production area in Egypt will probably not even have grass, which will only be more terrifying than the locust plague described in the original textbook of Ten Disasters. If the grain production area in the eastern provinces and the Mesopotamian Basin is not good, it will have to follow the grass. If the Central Asian families want to find some grass to eat, they will probably have to walk a few miles.

After that, the important grain-producing area of ​​the Indus River and Ganges River, Kushan, will have to reduce production by at least half.

To be honest, after analyzing the situation, Chen Xi has already realized the reality. The locust plague will definitely not be able to hold it back. The three empires will definitely be hammered by the locust plague. However, they are blocked by the Himalayas. Even if they are affected by the disaster, they will definitely be able to withstand it. Rome or Kushan will depend on who will die more miserably.

Of course, it is estimated that it should be Rome. The Kushan climate is there, and it is ripe for three a year. No matter how outrageous the locust plague is, it can only eat Kushan for one and a half seasons, which is better than the miserable appearance of Rome.

"What!" Yang Zhong grabbed Shi Min's collar and lifted Shi Min up directly. Although he normally looked like a gentle little old man, Yang Zhong was really angry at this moment.

Shi Min was pulled on the collar by Yang Zhong, but there was no anger on his face, and he was even sad. There was no way, and if he could, he didn't want to, but the news was basically confirmed. When the head of the family Shi Tao informed him of his younger brother and asked him to inform the Central Asian family, Shi Min knew that he would definitely get a hammer.

Maybe not to come? No, this is not only a task given by the head of the family, but also the responsibility of their Ganshi families for thousands of years - to develop calendar constellations and prevent disaster climates.

"It's over." Yang Zhong just roared for a few seconds, and then he became soft and sat on the ground. His eyes were dark. Their Yang family finally built the fiefdom and drove away the thieves around him. It was going to enter a positive cycle. As a result, you told me that the locust plague was coming.

"Five hundred billion locusts? Five hundred billion!" Yang Zhong burst into tears. At least the aristocratic families in the Lingdi Dynasty had seen locust plagues. Although they had never seen 50 billion locusts collectively dispatched, they had still seen 500 million locusts collectively dispatched.

In a county, 500 million locusts were dispatched collectively, and they would not take long to eat him. What does 50 billion mean? It means that a 1% squad is enough to eat the fiefdom that the Yang family finally built into white background.

"It's all over!" Yang Zhong burst into tears. After eating grass for so many years and spending so much energy, he was about to succeed. As a result, the locust plague was coming. Their Yang family stumbled through the most difficult period. They were about to harvest and had a break in their cooking.

Did the Yang family dare to cut off the food rations for the people under their rule and only provide them to the Han people? After cutting off the hundreds of thousands of dollars in recent years, they finally settled them successfully, and spontaneously supported the food supply of local people close to the Yang family, and only provided them to the people who followed from the country. Maybe they could survive this year, but then all the previous efforts were in vain!

What is broken is not the supply of food, but the foundation of their Yang family!

Yang Zhong almost realized everything in an instant. Their food and grass are not enough. If they are supplied to everyone, then everyone will not be full. Even if the Yang family has the ability to implement the rationing system, they will not be able to let everyone starve for this year. They used to eat grass to survive, but now they have no grass. This fiefdom that has been hard for so many years has failed!

"Sorry, I'm excited." After the black vision in front of Yang Zhong ended, he calmed down his mentality as much as possible. For an old man, this impact was even enough to take his life. However, after he recovered, Yang Zhong still adjusted his mentality as much as possible and let Shi Min go and said.

He couldn't change anything even when he grabbed Shi Min. He had tried his best to come and notify him. After all, the locust plague came from Africa. The Gan family and the Shi family were already very good at paying attention to it, but the sorrow in his heart really could not be eliminated. Yang Zhong could understand the efforts of the Gan family and the Shi family, but he could not overcome this hurdle in his heart.

"The head of the family has persuaded Hou Chen to transport grain to Xinzhou, but we cannot confirm how much it can be transported." Shi Min said with his head down. He was also very disappointed. Their family has really tried their best, but some things can't solve the problem even if they try their best.

"Thank you." Yang Zhong bowed and Shi Min quickly returned the gift.

After that, Shi Min didn't stay at the Yang family for too long. After drinking a cup of tea, she left the body and rushed to Cui family. There was no way. This time the matter was too big. Without the Gan family and the Shi family, it was inevitable that the family would have the last chance to be in despair. For example, maybe I was lucky and the locust plague would not pass by our family. Instead of having such an idea, it would be better to directly destroy this idea and let them make final preparations early.

After Shi Min left, a fierce discussion broke out in the Yang family. There was no way. Just thinking about his own luck, hundreds of millions of locusts would rush over to fight against their family. Everyone in the Yang family was irritated. Then when I thought that if I was not lucky, there might be billions of locusts passing through their Yang family. As for why not hundreds of billions of locusts were all transiting from their Yang family, I’m sorry, the Yang family is too small, and the coverage area of ​​hundreds of thousands of square kilometers is small.

"Send a message to Huangfu Song and pay back all the favors he owes us the Yang family! Fuck Odin, stop doing it, let him customize a talent that has a wide attack range and no need to be too powerful. It is enough to kill locusts and needs to be used for a long time." Yang Zhong said a little crazy.

"Too many." Yang Sun sighed and said, "Think of other ways. The talent of legionization can deal with millions and tens of millions of locusts that can fly to the limit, hundreds of billions of dollars..."

The real locust plague is tens of thousands of square kilometers, and the locusts that reach hundreds of thousands of square kilometers are flying directly. The individual's strength is completely inconsistent. The only strategic weapons can be used by the three empires to affect hundreds of thousands of square kilometers. The question is, who dares to use it now?

This is why even in the industrial age, when locusts are truly plagued, it is difficult to truly curb the emergence of locust plagues by various means.

What aircraft groups spray pesticides and what pheromones induce locusts are all funny for the group flying collectively with a coverage area calculated based on tens of thousands of square kilometers.

"Everything on the ground will be sucked. Let's change to a wave of short-term cabbage now, at least it's a bit of food." Yang Yi rubbed his face and said with a little despair, "Don't count on other ways, just lie flat and let the locusts hammer it."

It would be fine if there were a small number, but there were so many, it would be impossible to solve the problem of horizontal and vertical lines. It would be better to be realistic. Snatch all the things that can be collected within the fiefdom, and you should be regarded as the filial piety of the locust master. Anyway, you can't beat them. It would be better to save some energy and lie down.

A group of people in the Yang family began to discuss this issue fiercely. In the end, Yang Yi's plan had an absolute advantage. There was no way. I had never heard of a locust plague of this scale. It seemed that there was no point in struggling other than physical energy. Lying down can also reduce some energy consumption.

"Before the locust plague comes, we will find a way to transport grain first, and transport as much as we can. Then issue disaster prevention orders to the people under our jurisdiction, so that all the people will start to try their best to hoard food and grass. The pastures under our jurisdiction, except for chickens, ducks and geese, and a few animals left in the plant, were killed and made into bacon." Yang Zhong said with some despair.

Finally, everything in the fiefdom was on the right track, but a wave of locust plague came, and I went back to the point where I came here.

"Then during the locust plague, all the researchers of the Yang family stopped all the work at hand and studied for me how to kill locusts. We can't solve this wave of locust plague, but we can destroy this species!" Yang Zhong roared in great angrily.

The aristocratic families in Central Asia received news of locust plague in just two days, and soon after, veterans like Bi Laoliu who had fiefs in Central Asia also received the notice above.

However, compared with the major families, veterans like Bi Laoliu thought of the first thing they should do after receiving the news was not how to farm, stock up on food and prevent locust plagues, but to run away more simply and roughly.
