Chapter 488 News from South Korea Sikong [Please subscribe*Please vote]

The rain and snow in the south melted earlier than in the north, so when the news of Korea's demise reached Bingzhou, the Western Region envoys had not yet set off, but the 6,000-strong army was already ready, waiting for the ice and snow to melt.

However, an even worse news came.

"Sikong from South Korea?" In the palace, Yan Yan unexpectedly and unreasonably received Sikong from South Korea.

South Korea Sikong came faster than anyone else, or in other words, after the defection of Nanyang County, Han Li, who was South Korea Sikong at the time, had already packed up his belongings and prepared to run away.

Therefore, when Nei Shiteng led his army out, Han Li was the first batch of Korean nobles to escape.

Although his surname is Han, he is not from the Korean royal family. He only has the surname Han because his ancestor was a servant of the royal family.

"Sacrifice wine!" Han Li also knew very well. His son had studied with Yan Yan at Jade Villa, so in order to close the relationship, he directly followed the name of the child.

"The palace order said that you have important information and want to meet Gu?" Yan Yan didn't understand why Han Li came to see him, and what kind of information from South Korea could affect Bingzhou?
"Please allow your Majesty to allow the soldiers to send the information." Han Li lowered his head and begged.

Yan Yan frowned and looked at Nong Yu beside him.

To put it simply, these bamboo slips all show the amount of precipitation and snowfall in counties and villages across South Korea in the past four months.

Therefore, these bamboo slips must contain some important piece of information.

What Hanli brought was the amount of precipitation and snowfall in South Korea from the beginning of winter to the beginning of spring last year. This amount of precipitation and snowfall was less than half of that in good years. Not only the frequency, but also the number of rain points was less. half.

If left to the Qin Army, maybe the Qin Army can use this to calculate the time of rain and snow, so as to prepare for the march of the army.

There are many bamboo slips, and they all record the amount of rain and snowfall in various counties in South Korea.

However, Yan Yan didn't show any expression, he just leafed through the bamboo slips quietly.

Han Li did not rush to explain. He knelt down quietly under the main hall and waited for Yan Yan to read through all the precipitation and snowfall records in South Korea.

"That's wrong!" Yan Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, and a flash of light flashed in his mind.

Either it was too late to record due to the war, or this is the real precipitation in South Korea from last year to now. If it is the latter, the problem will be serious.

At first, Yan Yan didn't understand the use of these bamboo slips brought by Han Li. South Korea was gone, so what was the use of South Korea's rain and snow records.

"So many?" Yan Yan was a little surprised, what kind of information actually requires so many bamboo slips to record.

Soon, two soldiers entered the hall carrying a bamboo slip.

"Bring it up!" Yan Yan motioned to the soldiers in the palace to bring up the information Han Li said.

These records are indeed the amount of precipitation and snowfall in Korea, but he had seen the amount of precipitation and snowfall in Korea during good years in the Korean Cryptozoology Room.

Nongyu nodded and whispered, "It has been checked and there are no weapons or poisons hidden."

But Han Li must have brought these things because these things are also useful to Bingzhou, and the information he brought was enough for Bingzhou to take it seriously, so that the exiled Han Li could be reused in Bingzhou.

"Severe drought! Locust plague!" Yan Yan raised his head and looked at Han Li.

He came from Yushan Academy and was involved in all subjects. The relationship between precipitation and harvest was summarized in mathematics, which he had studied.

"Your Majesty is knowledgeable. Yes, according to Sikong Mansion's derivation, the precipitation in South Korea will be greatly reduced this year. In other words, there will be a severe drought this year!" "A long drought will lead to locusts, and the snowfall this year is too little. , Locust eggs will not be frozen to death, so there will definitely be a locust plague after the beginning of spring," Han Li said flatteringly.

Yan Yan also narrowed his eyes, this information is very important!

Most of the grain and grass in Bingzhou comes from the Central Plains. If there is a severe drought in the Central Plains and is accompanied by a locust plague, the grain and grass shipped to Bingzhou will inevitably be greatly reduced, which will directly affect the development of Bingzhou.

"Mo Ya, please order someone to investigate immediately. Is this true in South Korea or in most of the entire Central Plains!" Yan Yan did not dare to be careless in any way.

If it's just South Korea, that's fine. If it's like this for the entire Central Plains, then it will be difficult to merge the states.

"Here!" Mo Ya also knew the importance of this matter.

"Tell me, what do you want?" Yan Yan then looked at Han Li.

Han Li must have something to ask for when he sent such important information.

"Han Li has nothing else to ask for, he just hopes to settle down in Bingzhou!" Han Li knelt on the ground and did not take the initiative to raise any conditions.

This was also practiced in Korea. Not asking for anything is the real way to ask for something, and let Yan Yan see what is given.

Speculating on one's intentions is a compulsory course for all officials in South Korea.

"Stop the tricks you did in Korea. Bingzhou is not Korea. There is no need for magic to treat people. Likewise, Bingzhou does not support idle people!" Yan Yan said coldly.

"Here!" Han Li hurriedly sat up straight and sat upright.

"You are South Korea's Sikong. It just so happens that Bingzhou's Sikong Mansion is not well established. You take your people and report to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Prime Minister will arrange it for you!" Yan Yan thought for a while, and Bingzhou lacked everything, let alone this kind of thing. Officials who can summarize and deduce weather changes and make corresponding farming arrangements.

Han Li definitely didn't come by himself, he must have brought officials from South Korea's Sikong Prefecture. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him or his whole family to move out the rain records from South Korea's Sikong Prefecture.

"Here!" Han Li breathed a sigh of relief.

They are good at figuring out what is going on, which is also one of their strengths. Qin State has its own Si Tianjian, and they will be of no use to Qin State. The consequence of being useless to Qin State is death. As for Qin State, they will continue to use them to control South Korea. ?

Don't be stupid, how could Qin possibly trust them!
Therefore, they focused on Bingzhou at the first opportunity.

Of course, when they decided to come to Bingzhou, they also knew about Bingzhou and his style of doing things, so those who were just pretending to be fake had been kicked out by them long ago.

This is a major matter related to family reproduction. No favors are of any use. They can't even protect themselves, let alone bring those dandy wastes with them.

And the fact is just as they thought, Bingjun really only values ​​ability, regardless of their past, as long as they sincerely do practical things for the development of Bingzhou, even if they are exiles, Bingzhou will still give them corresponding respect and status.

This time, they made the right bet.

When Han Li brought officials from South Korea's Sikong Mansion to the Prime Minister's Mansion, An Qisheng was a little confused, but after reading South Korea's precipitation records, An Qisheng understood what Yan Yan meant.

It’s not just about resettling these people, it’s also about dealing with the problem of reduced food production after drought and locust plagues in the Central Plains.

This is crucial for Bingzhou. If Bingzhou cannot find a new food supply line before the severe drought, then even if Bingzhou is not in the disaster area, the number of damages and deaths will far exceed that in the disaster area.
