Chapter Ninety-Three: The Epidemic (II)
Yelu Guyu saw that the Nanren Emperor rode his horse closer and closer to the wolves, and his heart was terrified, and he was not even restless with the horse under the saddle and wanted to turn around, but the Nanren Emperor did not know what method was used, so he reluctantly ran in the direction of the wolves, but then, a sharp arrow in his ears broke through the air, and the wolves in front of him were hit by arrows, and the horse seemed to have spirituality, as if it could know that the master had shot those creatures it was extremely afraid of.
Even the wolves were frightened, and after the tragic deaths of their companions one by one, the rest of the wolves turned around and ran.
Yelu Guyu's eyes widened in surprise, although he heard that the emperor of the southern people is a hero in the eyes of the Central Plains, the lord of the hegemon, the head of thousands of troops, and the head of the other party's general, but after all, there will be exaggeration, and now he has witnessed the wonder of his bow and horse, under this moonlit night, the spring breeze is blowing, he is embraced and galloping, and the evil wolf is scattered and fleeing, and he can't help but feel sorry.
"Get up, do some work for me first!" Lu Ning's crotch horse slowly stopped in front of Yi Lazy, and kicked off the horse.
Yi lazy got up and looked at the Nanren Emperor, not knowing what it was like for a while.
This is the biggest enemy of his entire tribe, but today, he saved his life, and was bitten to death by a hungry wolf, that kind of misery, I shudder to think about it.
"Today, even if I capture you again, but whether you admit it or not, I can't release you again."
As she spoke, Lu Ning was also a little helpless in her heart, letting her return to the north, naturally she didn't really want to make any bet with her, she could be regarded as her own Trojan horse, and the horses she rode on were all plague horses, which were originally prepared for the Liao captives who went to Zhongjing and Tokyo to proclaim Yeluxian as the king of Northern Liao, but these specially left plague horses were also risky to stay in the camp for one more day, so they were simply used on Yi Lazy.
These infected horses, which were discovered by the veterinarians of Huangzhuang a while ago, came from a wild horse herd, and hundreds of horses in the entire herd were culled and buried, but a few horses with mild symptoms of infection were left behind, and they were kept in separate confinement.
Judging from the speed of infection in this herd, this should be a relatively contagious horse plague.
Later generations studied horse plague and the like, and found that it mainly came from mosquito bite infection, these few infected horses, Lu Ning ordered every day to smear the whole body with herbs that mosquitoes dare not approach, this kind of herbs, there are a large number of wild in the local area, not only the plagued horses, Huangzhuang horses, recently also smeared herbs just in case.
Originally, these plagued horses wanted to be sent to Zhongjing, but they didn't expect to be killed by hungry wolves.
But think about it, it's okay, although it is not very contagious, but if it is really a pandemic in Zhongjing, it may not be able to backfire to Chengde Huangzhuang, which is originally a double-edged sword.
Lu Ning attaches great importance to medicine and health, including animal diseases, although he does not know much about advanced things, but at least, he can give doctors and veterinarians some different ideas, and develop the road to modern medicine.
In the year of war, not to mention epidemic prevention, the Qi army has always had a tradition of burning the corpses of the enemy as soon as possible.
But this time, Lu Ning not only wanted to send the plague horse to Zhongjing, a while ago, a large number of Khitan corpses were thrown into the upper reaches of the Tuhe River.
Zhongjing is built near the Tu River, which is the Laoha River in Inner Mongolia in later generations.
The Khitan herdsmen, who like to live by water and grass, do not have a tradition of digging wells, and usually they also know that nomadic lands without rivers and lakes, where the water level is very high, can seep water out of the soil pit with a little digging, and the Tuhe River is now the main source of water in Zhongjing.
Spring is blooming, and the corpses of those Khitan people should have been soaked in the river for a long time, and now they have drifted to Zhongjing one after another, and what will happen in the end depends on the will of heaven.
And now, in the matter of the plague horse, it can be said that Providence has made a decision.
Lu Ning gave the horses that were not bitten to death by the wolf one by one, dug a big pit, pushed the corpses of these horses in, and buried them with soil.
In the East, the belly of the fish gradually whitens.
Thinking about it, the wolves are afraid that they will come back after a while, and when the time comes, they are afraid that they will be attracted by the smell of blood, and turn over the horse's carcass again to eat.
And this place is much closer to Chengdewei than Zhongjingke, and he will send a team out to burn the carcasses of these horses when he goes back.
While pondering, he said, "You two get on the horse." ”
In order to return to Chengde Huangzhuang as soon as possible, he could only run with his horse.
Yelu Guyu and Yi Lazy were both stunned.
Yelu Guyu didn't dare to say anything, and after helping Lu Ning bulldoze and bury the horse's corpse, he stood timidly on the side, listened to Lu Ning's order, and hurriedly got on the horse.
Yi lazy sneered and got on the horse.
But when the two saw the Nanren Emperor, they wanted two people to ride, and he followed the horse and ran, and they were stunned.
"Grandpa......" Yelu Guyu wanted to say something, but was stopped by Lu Ning waving his hand and didn't dare to say anything more.
Yi lazy did not speak, the horror of being attacked by the wolves still haunted his heart, and when he noticed that the Nanren Emperor was running under the horse, he faintly understood that this guy was not a pity for the jade, but he was bound to hurry back to his lair in a hurry.
The southerners are hypocritical, what kind of pity and cherishing jade is elegant, in fact, the status of women is frighteningly low, not to mention that the emperor of the southerners is in his heart, himself, etc., are just trophies that he can show off, how can he have the slightest status at all?
Now, he just wants to return to Chengde Huangzhuang as soon as possible.
But gradually, I was shocked, this guy, is it really iron? The physical strength is also too scary.
……
Back at the imperial tent, Lu Ning was very tired, and after sending a small team of cavalry to dispose of the corpse of the plagued horse, it just so happened that Yelu was brought.
In history, Yelu Xianzhen was a famous Khitan general and a famous military strategist, who made great contributions to the Khitan to expand its territory and conquer the surrounding forces.
But today's Yelu is famous for being frivolous and prodigal, not producing, just having an ancestral shade, so he married the sister of Queen Xiao, but he didn't want to, not long after he got married, he was involved by the Xiao family and was sent to Seoul to be a salt household, and then, it can be said that he was rescued back to Nandi, or it can be said that he was captured and came to Nandi.
Summoned to the tent by the Nanren Emperor, Yelu Xianzhen was a little stunned, and never thought that the Nanren Emperor would award him Yu Linlang.
It was the imperial tent of the Emperor of the Southerners, the glory that all the young generals of the Qi army dreamed of, and it was an excellent step to enter the body.
The Nanren Emperor, but he didn't know why, would choose him to join Yulinwei.
When he came to the tent, he lowered his head slightly, and his heart was complicated for a while.
"Han Yin, why don't you realize your ambition under my command?"
The Nanren Emperor's indifferent words made Yelu even more stunned, he has always had great ambitions, but he is a relative brother, and no one understands him at all, and he often laughs at him for losing his family property, but he doesn't want to, this Nanren Emperor, but he knows him and values him.
Immediately, he rose up to the excitement of the death of a confidant, not to mention that the person in front of him was the hero of the world and a great man who made his own tribe in the north fearful.
The country established by Taizu, although the Han name is now changed to Liao, but in the language of the people, it has always been the name of the country as the "Great Central Hara Khitan", but now it is seen that the greatest emperor of the Central Dynasty in the world is only afraid of the person in front of him.
"Han Yin, how's that?!" Emperor Nanren smiled slightly.
Yelu didn't hesitate anymore, knelt down and kowtowed, "The young general is willing to shroud the horse leather for the king, and do his best!" ”
Lu Ning smiled, if he could use it properly, he might not be his favorite general in the future.
In the Central Plains Dynasty, when it was open and inclusive, there were never fewer famous generals of different races.
