Chapter 6551 is coming, He is coming to kill
"Why does it feel different from the Wang family's secret medicine?" Haftan took out a secret medicine and compared it with his own memory. The difference was indeed quite large.
"Of course it's different. Ours is made with some extra ingredients from the head of the family. The Wang family may have advantages over us in other aspects, but they will never surpass us in terms of crystallization of the essence of heaven and earth." Guo Shuai said very confidently, and Haftan fell silent as he looked at the secret medicine.
"Did you add crystals of the essence of heaven and earth into it?" Haftan was confused. Adding crystals of the essence of heaven and earth into this thing didn't make sense no matter how he thought about it.
“Doesn’t rice contain the essence of heaven and earth?” Guo Shuai said as a matter of course.
"The essence in rice can be absorbed. Don't you know how violent the essence in the crystals of the essence of heaven and earth made by our family is?" The Haftan people were numb. Guo Zhao really did whatever he wanted in some aspects. If humans could absorb the essence in the crystals of the essence of heaven and earth, all of them would have had their internal energy leave their bodies long ago.
Of course, it is not completely impossible to absorb it. For example, Lu Bu did it, but that was Lu Bu. Moreover, Lu Bu absorbed it, but he was not able to refine it all. Instead, he released it as a big move. Can a normal person do the same as Lu Bu? No.
"The secret medicine itself can enhance the refining of the essence of heaven and earth, and after the essence of heaven and earth is combined with this secret medicine, the original manic side will be gradually smoothed out." Guo Shuai explained, "At least all the major families have confirmed this point. In essence, this secret medicine does not directly enhance physical fitness, but uses a special method to let the essence of heaven and earth strengthen the body."
Havertan was somewhat surprised when he heard this, but he did not doubt it. Indeed, it was unrealistic to rely solely on secret medicine to strengthen the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, meridians, blood vessels, muscles and bones to that degree. It would be more reasonable to rely on the essence of heaven and earth.
"In other words, this secret medicine made by the Queen is more powerful?" Haftan asked excitedly, while Guo Shuai was obviously silent after hearing this.
This is no longer a question of thinking, this guy is just messing around.
The five or six hundred strong and tough backbone members of the Xie family and the six or seven hundred strong guards inlaid with the crystals of the essence of heaven and earth would be wiped out in a single wave in the war of empires. Without numbers, they would be useless.
In the past, although the Guo, Liu and Yin families were stronger than medium-sized families such as the Xie family and the Xiao family, the gap in strength had not yet reached the level where the other party had to trade for core materials. But now, has my muscle grown in vain?
"Don't be afraid, we are still very capable of fighting, even better than before." Haftan said confidently. Even if it is a temporary triple smelting, it is still a tough saddle, and not everyone can beat it.
"If we could get it, we would have gotten it long ago. And if it was really that simple, Lord Chen would have popularized it long ago." Guo Shuai said helplessly, "But with the strength of my son-in-law, it shouldn't be a problem for us to trade with the Xie family."
But just because it is useless at the empire level does not mean it is useless at the family level. In fact, in Central Asia, a few hundred backbones and a few thousand weak members are enough to make the charge.
Any force that can fight in the Imperial War must have a few legions with a score close to 100. Even the defeated Parthia and the now seemingly half-wasted Kushan, which top force does not have a few tough guys as the leader? The Parthian Empire wants to develop its military spirit because it needs a bunch of guards with scores above 80, not because it lacks a top legion with a score close to 100.
After all, even if things in Central Asia are outrageous, the scale of the war is at most tens of thousands. It is nothing like the War of Empires. When things are not crazy, the scale is hundreds of thousands. When things go crazy, the scale of both sides combined can exceed one million. Even a border conflict can involve tens of thousands of people.
"Then what should we do with these boxes of secret medicines that are infused with the essence of heaven and earth?" Haftan roughly estimated the dosage, and then put some normal secret medicines in his arms. Although this stuff is still somewhat different from what he got from the Wang family, at least it won't kill people.
"Come to think of it, is it impossible to get Xie's secret medicine?" When Haftan heard this, he remembered the elite members of the Xie family he met when he was a thug in Central Asia. They were truly made of iron and steel. After their special secret skills were activated, their bodies glowed with a metallic luster. Moreover, when they knocked their weapons twice, a dull metallic sound was emitted, which was even more exaggerated than the metalization in Rome.
"There are only a few boxes left." Guo Shuai said, pointing to a few other boxes.
Although the Xie and Xiao families rose to prominence in the late Three Kingdoms period, they were just so-so compared to other large families. However, these families have a long history, so they also have some strange things left behind. Chen Xi had seen the Xie family's copper-skinned and iron-boned stuff when he was in Liaodong. He had considered replicating it, but the cost was too high.
The output of a hydrogen bomb is very powerful, so after swallowing the hydrogen bomb, if we control its output with the human body, then humans will be even more powerful. The idea is correct, but it cannot be done!
"Sell it to Xie or Xiao at a higher price." As half a housekeeper, Guo Shuai said to his son-in-law with some speculation. Anyway, there was no need to choose, since there was only this one son-in-law.
For an empire of this level, it doesn't make any sense to have a few hundred or a thousand people. In fact, even if you have a force of tens of thousands, it can only be considered a surprise move in the war of empires, but not a killer move. The cost of these things cannot be reduced, so Chen Xi did not do it and just sealed it up as data. On the contrary, for a medium-sized family like the Xie family, having a few hundred people leading the way is enough.
Is it powerful? It is indeed powerful, but without the ability of the military soul to quickly replenish, and without the ability to fully construct a system after the three talent channels, it is just a top-level legion. At the level of the empire, a large number of backbones on the opposite side can be killed as long as they get the chance.
At the level of an empire, even for verification, at least two legions are needed. A few hundred people are not even enough for show.
"A secret medicine without the essence of heaven and earth added to it, this kind of thing is really unbearable for us." Haftan said with a twitching face. Even he could not bear this kind of nonsense. His body with internal energy out of the body could accept Guo Zhao's whipping, but he could not accept the self-detonation of the crystallization of the essence of heaven and earth in the body. The former is called love, the latter is called death!
In such an outrageous war scale, elite troops of several hundred people are simply not enough. But for a local dog like Haftan who has never participated in a large-scale decisive battle since his debut, having several hundred elite troops with high defense is a very good improvement.
The same goes for the etched plate armor with crystals of the essence of heaven and earth that Guo Zhao had rubbed out. To be sure, they were all good things, but at the imperial level they were clearly useless.
"It is indeed more powerful, but the side effects are not resolved because the secret medicine cannot completely eliminate the violent essence of heaven and earth. In other words, the head of the family is not sure how much essence of heaven and earth to add, especially the crystallized essence of heaven and earth. You also know how huge its true scale is." Guo Shuai said cautiously, and Havertan fell silent when he heard it.
In fact, the failure of the Parthian Empire was also due to this reason. They always came up with decisive weapons and hidden weapons. Is Heart Abyss Nesting strong? It is very strong. The combat power of the extreme dual talents is worthy of the world's top, but it is useless. From the founding of the country to the destruction of the country, there were less than 20 of them. Excluding the six or seven who founded the country and the six who destroyed the country, the rest are less than three in two hundred years.
In the next few days, Guo went eastward and successfully arrived at the Turan Plain. However, at this time, the Turan Plain with lush grass and water was a little barren. Hundreds of billions of locusts ate their way to the Turan Plain and brought disaster to Turan. However, the climate in the Turan Plain was humid this year, so the grass grew again after the locust plague passed.
"The fiefdom of Marquis Chiyang has all been destroyed." Guo Zhao looked at the grassland that had obviously been eaten away, his expression a little solemn. The locusts have come here. If you think about it carefully, it seems that it is not impossible to rush to Xinzhou. After all, this is at the foot of the Pamir Mountains. After crossing the Pamir Mountains, you will enter Xinzhou.
"This place looks pretty good." Haftan was somewhat shocked as he looked at the grasslands that stretched to the sky. Before he rose to power, he had no ability to run around. After he rose to power, he was controlled by Guo Zhao and had no chance to run around. He basically wandered around the hinterland of Central Asia. When he went to Chang'an in the sixth year of Yuanfeng, it was winter and he couldn't see such a magnificent view of green grass. This time he was really an eye-opener. "Of course it's good, the grass and water are lush, and the big river to the south is called Guishui. All the way down is the fief of the Chen family in Bactra. It's really enviable." Guo Zhao said unhappily. Of course this place is good, but this place is owned by someone.
"Really?" Haftan looked at Guo Zhao in confusion, wondering why Guo Zhao was in a bad mood.
"Forget it, we can take a rest now that we are here." Guo Zhao said with a sigh. At least there is no problem with safety here.
"It's better to be careful. The impact of the locust plague is too great. There are too many people in Central Asia who are short of food. Without food, they are likely to do anything." Haftan looked around and felt that he should be more careful. After all, the closer they got to the east, the crazier the Parthian survivors from the west became. In the end, some of them had obviously started to eat meat, and the way they looked at people was not right.
"Here, this is the bill from Chang'an Money House. Ask someone to find a nearby ranch and buy some cattle and sheep and eat some hot broth. Take a good rest before continuing to Xinzhou." The dusty Guo Zhao took out a stack of bills from his sleeve, took out a few with the seal of Zhuye Township Marquis and handed them to Haftan. They had migrated all the way and now they had to slow down, eat something good and take a rest, which could also be considered as a soothing measure.
In the Turan Plain near the Pamir Mountains, Lao Liu, who has changed his job to become a nomad, has built a ranch in Turan with the large amount of property he brought with him when he fled and the efforts of more than a thousand core population. He is living a happy pastoral life. Bullshit!
"Damn locusts, my pasture has been eaten up. Don't these things have any natural enemies?" Lao Liu said madly to his technical talents. He originally thought that as long as he ran to Turan, no matter how outrageous the locust plague was, it would not be able to rush over. As a result, it was proved that Lao Liu's dream was too good. The locust plague directly killed through Central Asia and rushed all the way over, running faster than Lao Liu.
"What we raise are already the natural enemies of locusts." Tian Wu said helplessly.
Lao Liu had received the news of the locust plague early, and since it was easier to eat with fewer people, he took the core group of more than a thousand people and ran away. When he passed the Turan grassland, he happened to see his old brother Li Jun selling a duck farm. Lao Liu and Li Jun had a comrade-in-arms friendship, so Li Jun directly gave a bottom price and sold all the facilities near the duck farm to Lao Liu. This was like giving Lao Liu an entire resettlement area, so that more than a thousand people had a place to live.
There was no other way. After being enlightened by Chen Xi, Li Jun realized that raising ducks and drying them was not as profitable as growing watermelons on land that did not cost much in places like Jincheng and Guazhou.
On the one hand, the land doesn't cost much, and on the other hand, the Guazhou watermelon improved by Cookie is really an invincible variety. Li Jun, who took the initiative, is like an invincible man. He brings a group of old brothers to grow and buy watermelons. In addition, the Chinese have an innate habit that farming is more reliable than doing anything else. So after growing watermelons for three years, Li Jun felt it necessary to stop all other businesses.
This year, I contracted tens of thousands of acres to grow watermelons and I really have no time to take care of the duck farm abroad, so I came here to sell the duck farm at a low price, and then use the money to continue growing watermelons.
In short, the situation is very good, so Lao Liu has picked up a big bargain and got a successfully operated duck farm for free. Li Jun did not hide anything from Lao Liu and directly said that you only need to put some people here and don't drive away those technical personnel. Inspect the farm four times a year and check the accounts. This duck farm will be able to operate on its own. This duck farm is adjacent to the Aral Sea and along the Amu Darya River, and there are many wild ducks that come here to eat.
In Li Jun's words, don't worry about the wild ducks, and don't go out of your way to hunt them. If there is plenty of silage, you can feed some to the wild ducks. Anyway, domestic ducks bred from wild ducks have better physical fitness, better taste, and are less likely to get sick. Just sow the grass when the season comes, and don't worry too much about it. Random harvesting should be enough.
In short, he talked a lot and told Lao Liu all the simple ways to make money, such as making duck eggs, duck down, meat, etc., and then Li Jun went back to Guazhou to continue growing melons.
At that time, Lao Liu thought that he could find a hiding place in Turan and make some money. If that didn't work, even if the locusts were powerful, their hundreds of thousands of ducks would still be able to fight. So he bought the duck farm from Li Jun. The duck farm was just as Li Jun said, with all the necessary supplies, and even some wooden equipment was left there and given to Lao Liu as a gift.
After all, Li Jun knew that he would only be a small local tycoon in the end, while his sixth brother would be a feudal lord at the very least. More brothers means more paths, and it is possible that his own descendants will get a living under his sixth brother in the future. By that time, it would be much better to talk about favors than about interests. Besides, the cost of this little thing had been earned back long ago, so he could just give it all to his sixth brother.
However, Li Jun didn't know what Lao Liu's real idea was. Lao Liu was planning to use these 800,000 ducks to fight the locust plague.
The result was undoubtedly a defeat. Even though they had hybridized with the local Turan wild ducks for so many generations and had extraordinary combat power, and were not afraid of eating poisonous locusts, there was still an order of magnitude difference between 800,000 ducks and the 8 billion locusts left after they invaded Turan.
As a result, Bi Laoliu's heart was beating fast. It was not a big problem that the duck farm lost this time, at least the grass was not eaten up. After all, the Turan Plain was large enough and there was enough grass. The locusts were just passing through and there were only 150 billion of them. They could only consume the food rations of more than million people a day. The Turan Plain of million square kilometers could still withstand such a surge.
But this is only the second wave. The third wave will be a real super locust plague, and its scale will be at least ten times that of this wave. Will we be able to block it with our heads then?
"Or let's continue to retreat, retreat to Xinzhou, or if that doesn't work, retreat to Zangzhou. I have a few brothers in Zangzhou. I heard that there are two to three million geese there, and geese are much more ferocious than ducks." Lao Liu said to Tian Wu with a complicated expression.
"But it's not easy to drive so many ducks over." Tian Wu said somewhat uncomfortably.
Lao Liu felt a little uncomfortable, being tied here.
"Oh, I don't know when this locust plague will end." Lao Liu said uncomfortably.
Sima Lang was already being attacked by the locusts. However, the locusts were already exhausted when they rushed to Xinzhou. Even if they had been showing off all the way, they had already been showing off for several months when they arrived at Xinzhou, and their lifespan was almost over.
But even if the locusts had a lifespan of less than twenty days, and there were three or four billion of them, it would still be a large-scale locust plague for the inexperienced Han Dynasty. After all, the Han Dynasty, as long as it was a normal dynasty, would have tried hard to prevent locust plagues.
Therefore, when Sima Lang received the news that a large-scale locust plague had broken out in western New South Wales, he immediately notified Chang'an. There was no other way. In the past, Sima Lang would have definitely suppressed the matter first, but what he had done in previous years was too rough, and he was put on Li You's blacklist. Even if Chen Xi protected him, if he continued to mess around and really attracted Li You, it would be fatal.
Therefore, major events like locust plagues must be reported, even if after reporting they may be criticized for not paying attention to agricultural affairs, but it is still better than Li You coming to cause trouble.
"Ah, there's a locust plague in Xinzhou?" Chen Xi looked at Sima Lang's document with a puzzled look on his face. What's going on? Why is there no sign at all? It's said that there was so much snow in Xinzhou last winter, so there shouldn't be a locust plague. Is this because of Perennis? Have the locusts evolved?
Chen Xi did not consider the possibility of a locust plague in East Africa. After all, this was only the second wave. Even if it was against the will of heaven, it should not be able to fly to the border of the Han Dynasty. If the second wave could fly to the border of the Han Dynasty, then the third wave would surely rush to Chang'an to open Chen Xi's eyes? How could this be possible!
"Send a group of professionals to Xinzhou to investigate." Li You suggested. After the authority for administrative assessment was taken away, Li You's words were no longer as outrageous as when Lu Su just fell.
