Era: Craftsmen in the Siheyuan

Chapter 264 Encirclement and Suppression
What to do?

Get rid of the four evils.

Especially playing mahjong!

At this time, Tianfu pioneered the way of fighting the sparrows with large corps, and adopted the deployment of unified actions across the province at regular intervals.

Their experience in hunting mahjong was even made into a documentary that was screened across the country and promoted throughout the country.

As the saying goes, "Flies and mosquitoes spread diseases, and rats and sparrows steal food. Sixty million people come together to fight, and we must wipe them all out!"

Of course, Sijiucheng was not willing to lag behind. It held a swearing-in meeting to eliminate the four pests and established a general headquarters for the encirclement and suppression of sparrows.

Arrangements for mobilization were started a few days in advance, and almost everyone in the city could be mobilized. Schools were closed for this purpose.

Get ready for something big!

Of course, everyone in the tavern is no exception!

Together with others, they will be responsible for this area of ​​Qianmen Street.

In the evening, the tavern was almost full, and everyone was discussing the sparrow fight tomorrow.

Everyone is particularly concerned about this matter of almost universal mobilization.

"Hey, where will you go tomorrow?"

"I'm going to the Temple of Heaven."

"I was assigned to Taoranting."

……

Everyone was talking in a flurry of words.

Mr. Niu said with a smile: "Hey, this little house bird definitely didn't expect that he would have this day."

"That's not the case." Master Pian took a sip of wine and said happily, "Maybe no one thought of it."

Fan Jinyou had just come in from the neighborhood committee meeting. When he heard this, he narrowed his eyes and said with a half-smile: "What's the matter, Master Niu and Master Pian have sympathy for the sparrow?"

Qiangzi rolled his eyes and agreed, "It sounds a bit similar to me."

The film master said quickly: "That's not possible. Sparrows are harmful birds and must be knocked down."

The corners of Mr. Niu's mouth twitched slightly and he said, "Yes, Mr. Pian is right."

Xu Hesheng opened his mouth at the side, but finally said nothing. Nowadays, intellectuals are not easy to hang out with, and he is also afraid that Fan Jin will slip into his shoes. Before, he would have definitely stabbed Fan Jin.

Xu Huizhen glared at Qiangzi and said, "What do you want, Clerk Fan?"

Fan Jinyou raised his chin slightly with satisfaction. This guy has been active recently and has performed well in various sports. He seems to be a little bit like a duck in water.

He has regained the attention of the street director Li, and there are rumors in the neighborhood committee that this guy may resume his status as a reserve cadre.

"Let's have Er Liang Er Guotou and a plate of small tripe. Don't drink too much as it will cause trouble. The leader attaches great importance to tomorrow's affairs. No one can hold us back." Fan Jinyou sat down and said with a hint of cadre style.

Qiangzi said quickly: "That can't be done. I will definitely kill them one hundred and eighty times tomorrow."

Everyone couldn't help showing a look of disdain for Qiangzi's helpless appearance.

He Yumei served the food and wine to Fan Jinyou.

When Fan Jin saw Qiangzi coming up to the road, he gave him a little tripe to serve as food and drink. Qiangzi immediately grinned happily.

This guy is getting worse and worse now, and after Cai Quanwu and He Yumei got married, their money was taken care of by their daughter-in-law, and they didn't have enough money. Qiangzi couldn't borrow Cai Quanwu.

He was almost fired from his job, and he had no money. Seeing that even Liu Dezhu was about to have a child, Qiangzi was still a bachelor.

Everyone in the tavern was discussing tomorrow's events and longing for a better future...

……

"Da da da da..."

In the yard behind the tavern, Ping'er, with pigtails on his head, pushed a walker. As the wooden wheel turned, he kept knocking on the wood, making a soft and clear sound.

"Hehe, sister, hurry up." Xiao Lier laughed and said at the side.

Xu Deyong smiled and said: "Li'er, my sister can't walk fast enough, so don't rush her."

Ping'er saw that his sister was trotting very fast, but she was still unsteady when walking. He pushed hard for two steps, threw down the walker, turned around and hugged Xu Deyong's leg, raised his head and said, "Baba."

Xu Deyong smiled and picked up Ping'er.

The little guy immediately pointed his little hand at his sister and said vaguely: "Chase, drive..."

Xu Deyong smiled and hugged Ping'er and caught up with Li'er.

"Keke..." Ping'er laughed happily.

Xiao Li'er immediately pouted her lips and said, "No, I want it too."

Xu Deyong picked her up with one hand and said, "It's getting late, it's time to go back to bed."

"I want to wash my feet."

"Feet."

"I want to hear a story." "Yes."

Xu Deyong hugged the two laughing and playing children and returned to the house.

Wrapped up by the tide of the times, no one can change anything, just like a wild horse that can't be pulled back...

In the evening, Xu Huizhen came back and took a look at the two sleeping children. After washing, she lay on the bed and hugged Xu Deyong. She sighed softly and said, "Hey, don't think about business as usual for the next three days."

Xu Deyong skillfully put his hand in and said: "Everyone is like this, we are not the only exception."

Xu Huizhen hummed softly and said: "I always feel like something is a little abnormal."

Xu Deyong said: "This is not something we can worry about. We have to deal with it now..."

……

The next day, October 4th.

Xu Deyong and Xu Huizhen got up at around three in the morning. Like them, there are thousands of households in Forty-Nine City.

After the two simply washed up, Xu Deyong found a ladder and placed it beside the eaves outside.

Their job is to ensure that not a single sparrow lands near their home.

At around four o'clock, Xu Deyong climbed up to the roof and could faintly see countless people moving out.

At this time, the millions of sparrow-killing troops in Sijiu City were carrying gongs and drums, bamboo poles, nets, and colorful flags, and began to move towards the designated combat positions.

More than 830 poisoning areas were sprinkled with poisonous bait, and more than 200 shooting areas were ambushed with a large number of sharpshooters.

Xu Huizhen also climbed up. She was holding a bamboo pole with a rag tied to it as a flag.

The two also greeted nearby neighbors on the rooftop.

At five o'clock, when the commander-in-chief of the 49-city Siege and Suppression of Sparrows issued an order, the city's vast area of ​​more than 8,700 square kilometers immediately erupted with gongs and drums, firecrackers fired, gunshots roared, and colorful flags waved.

There are people everywhere on the house, in the trees, and in the courtyard. Thousands of pairs of eyes are watching the sky. Dummies and straw men are swaying in the wind and come to cheer.

Regardless of whether they are white-haired old men or children of any age, workers, farmers, cadres, students, or soldiers, everyone is armed with weapons and various tools, and they can be said to do their best.

The whole city formed a huge "sparrow crossing the street, everyone shouting to beat" situation.

Good guy, who wouldn’t be excited to see this scene?

Well, Ping'er in the room was frightened and cried. Xu Huizhen went down and hugged her for a while before coaxing her.

As for Xiao Li'er, he looked fearless. He was also holding an enamel cup and clinking it, as if he was enjoying himself.

……

Soon good news spread everywhere!
In the battle at the Temple of Heaven, 40 sparrows were annihilated in one day, % of which died from exhaustion.

Yes, exhausted.

Although a little thing like a sparrow has wings and can fly, it cannot last long. If it keeps flying, it will soon get tired.

As of 10 p.m., a total of 83249 sparrows had died from exhaustion, poisoning or beating to death in the four-nine cities.

This "bird-killing war" lasted for three days.

During these three days, 3 million people from the Four-Nine City exterminated more than 300 sparrows, destroyed countless sparrow nests and sparrow eggs, and achieved an unprecedented and great victory.

At the same time, the "Sparrow Extermination War" is also going on vigorously across the country, with more than 16 billion sparrows exterminated, and countless sparrow nests and eggs destroyed.

During this period, more than 2000 experts from the Chinese Academy of Sciences put down their scientific research to participate in the sparrow war.

Ornithologists, mathematicians, scientists, etc. also brought rods to stick to the birds.

Some people have doubts. In that era, there were a large number of intellectuals such as Ba and Guo. Didn't they know the harm?

But when they saw what happened to some biologists after raising their opinions, they all fell silent.

Of course, he was not completely silent. Guo also wrote a poem:

The sparrow is too angry to be an official, and you won't care if the sky falls.

The sparrow's air is so broad that it feels like the wind is blowing when eating rice.

The sparrow is so angry that it is just lazy and has nothing to do.

The sparrow is too arrogant, and is afraid of being famous and afraid of making trouble.

Sparrows are so arrogant that they cannot fly high even though they have wings.

You are such a bastard bird, jumping around with all your strength.

I have committed sins for thousands of years, and I will settle my account with you today.

He beat them hard, bombarded them, attacked them all, and finally used the fire to scorch them.

Together with the five qi, it burns into the sky, and the four evils are unparalleled in the world.

Just ask how much oil this poem can get!
