Chapter 564

"Ming Gong, this plague is a little different from the last time, so the effect of the prescription is not so great, but it is precisely because Ming Gong took out the prescription in time that it has been curbed to a certain extent, otherwise it may not be able to wait until the old decay comes."

After Hua Tuo's inspection, he said to Gongsun Du: "It's just that in this way, it can't be solved in a day or two, and the specific situation depends on the situation, as fast as three or five days, and as long as more than a month." ”

"Different?"

Gongsun Du's eyes were filled with hope, obviously still unwilling to believe that there was a shadow of the imperial court behind this matter: "Is it not related to last time?" ”

The idea is good, it's just ......

"This old man doesn't know. It's just that according to the news that the old man learned, this time the incident should be man-made, and last time it was also man-made. Hua Tuo shattered Gongsun Du's luck mentality, and almost said that he had nothing to do with the imperial court.

In fact, if you think about it, if you want to say that there is something like the plague, it is naturally the imperial court. Maybe some families have a long history and can get a few words, but it is really just a few words, far less than the imperial court knows more.

Gongsun Du stabilized his mind, put the matter aside for the time being, noticed another important point in Hua Tuo's words, and asked, "If it takes such a long time, won't many people die because of this?" ”

"Although there are differences, he is still a plague after all, and everything is inseparable from it. It is precisely for this reason that the previous prescription is not completely ineffective. ”

Hua Tuo held up a finger and said confidently: "One day! One day at most! Preventive prescriptions can be dispensed, which will greatly delay the onset of the disease, and can protect your life until the prescription is given. ”

"Good!"

Gongsun Du breathed a long sigh of relief and said sincerely: "Then there is Lao Hua's divine doctor!" ”

"Don't dare! This is a matter of old decay! ”

After that, as Hua Tuo said, the next morning, in less than a day, he came up with a prescription for prevention. The morale of the army, which was still a little unstable, immediately stabilized.

After three days, the situation in the city gradually deteriorated, mainly because the medicinal materials in the city were almost used. Gongsun Du didn't panic, because Xun You had already spread the news and had already mobilized medicinal materials from all over the country. Calculating the time, the first batch is coming from Wei County recently, and the second batch is from Hanoi and Hedong, and it is no problem to hold on until the third batch of medicinal materials mobilized from Zhuo County arrives.

This news did not pass on, and the city was unstable again. But it was soon restored.

"Ming Gong, a total of thirty-eight people have been caught!"

Guo Jia said with a smile: "If nothing else, there should be no one, if there is, it must be the kind that is very hidden, and Cao Cao is reluctant to use it if he wants to." ”

"Good!"

It turned out that all this was done by Egypt and Gongsun Dubu, for the sake of those who spread rumors.

"Let's all interrogate them well, and if there is no news that can change their lives, send them down!"

"Yes, Ming Gong."

In another three days, Hua Tuo already had some eyebrows and began to dispense and test medicines.

The 10 people selected had their symptoms alleviated after a day of taking medicine, but they still could not recover. Hua Tuo is really powerful, keenly aware of the reason, and corrected the prescription.

After taking the medicine for another day, his condition worsened, but Hua Tuo laughed. After revising the prescription again, Shangyu Gongsun Du began to take the medicine on a large scale.

Gongsun Du believed in Hua Tuo and had the intention to take the medicine first, but was stopped by Guo Jia and others, and Hua Tuo understood this.

For another three days, the first batch of people to take the medicine were cured. It's not that I intend to divide it into batches, but that the medicinal materials are insufficient, and it just so happens that after these three days, the medicinal materials in Zhuo County have arrived, and there are a lot of them, which is enough for everyone in the city.

At this time, Gongsun Du actually wiped a sweat from the bottom of his heart: Fortunately, this is a traditional Chinese medicine, a pair of medicines can usually be drunk for a day, unlike Western medicine, which is drunk once, otherwise it is really impossible to transport so many drugs at one time. (We are supporters of traditional Chinese medicine, and we usually take traditional Chinese medicine when we see a doctor.) So, although it is exaggerated, don't take it seriously. )

In less than half a month, the plague in White Horse City was completely controlled.

Gongsun Du was at peace in his heart, and at the same time, he hated Cao Cao a little more.

Leaving Huang Zhong to garrison Baima and wait for reinforcements can be regarded as punishment for him to enter the city without obeying orders. Of course, it is actually because Huang Zhong is very old, and he unfortunately contracted the disease after entering the city, although he has recovered after taking medicine, but in the end, he is older, and it will take more time to recover.

Gongsun Du led the army eastward to the direction of Puyang, and responded to Zhang Xiu's army from the Gaotang Dynasty to the west of Dongjun to relieve their pressure from the west.

This time to the south, according to the plan, it seems that the three-way army will attack Cao Cao from the three directions of Baima, Liaocheng, and Luguo, but in fact, it is a four-way army.

The first way is for Gongsun Du to cross south from Baimajin, capture Baima City, and respond in the center.

On the other hand, on the other side of Baimajin, Gongsun Du divided Lu Bu, and Gao Shun, who had been hidden in the dark, led 70,000 troops, went west to Yanjin and crossed the river to the south, entered Yangwu, took Zhongmu directly, and looked at Xuchang in the south, threatening Cao Cao's heart.

The third road is Zhang Xiu's road, with Li Ru as the military advisor, and Zhaozhao, Ma Yan and others as deputy generals, and enterprising Liaocheng.

The fourth road, with Xu Rong as the main general, Fu Zhi as the military advisor, Gao Lan, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou as the deputy generals, led 80,000 people into the Lu country, intending to take the hinterland of Cao Cao and Yuzhou.

With Gao Shun's command, Lu Bu only needed to charge into battle, and in one day he broke through the unprepared Yangwu, and when he landed in Zhongmu, he was intercepted by Xiahou Dun's army. If it weren't for the news of White Horse City, they might have taken Zhongmu by now. Now that the danger of the white horse has been resolved, Lu Bu and Gao Shun, who retreated to Yangwu, once again raised troops to attack Zhongmu.

Xu Rong can only lead the troops, which can be called the first in the army, and then there is frustration to help him, no one can stop him, even if Cao Cao sent his henchman Zang Ba, and Cheng Yu as his military advisor, but he was still defeated by Lu County and lost the national governance of Lu State.

Only Zhang Xiu this way, after taking Liaocheng, when attacking Leping, was ambushed and repelled by Xu Huang in Luoshui in the middle of the road, and suffered heavy losses.

"Ming Gong, my subordinates remember that two years ago, there was a private team that went to Zhuo County to buy sweet potatoes and other things from Ming Gong, I don't know if Ming Gong still has an impression?" Halfway, Guo Jia said suddenly.

"Huh?"

Gongsun Du patted his head and said, "I have almost forgotten it, but when you say this, I have some impressions, as if the leader still has the same surname as Hansheng." Isn't that mistaken? ”

"That's right!"

Guo Jia said with a smile: "At that time, Jia also told the master that these were too cunning, but now it seems that they need to be put to good use." ”

"What do you mean?"

Gongsun Du frowned and said, "Let them do the internal response?" ”

"Yes." Guo Jia nodded and said, "Although Baima is a strong city, but in the end, the city is too small and can accommodate limited materials, even if Cao Cao tries his best to defend it, it will be delayed for a day or two at most, and it will still be captured in the end, but Puyang is different." ”

"Puyang as the county of the east county, the city is about ten zhang high, its size is ten times that of the White Horse City, and because it is adjacent to the Yellow River, the moat is very wide, easy to defend and difficult to attack, if you want to take it, the best way is to dispatch naval warships, land and water attack, when you can fight down."

When he said this, Guo Jia looked at Gongsun Du carefully, and saw that he was unmoved, and understood that saying it was equivalent to saying it in vain, so he changed his voice and said: "However, now is not the time to dispatch the navy, because it is quite difficult to take Puyang, and the loss will be very large." And the Ming Duke advanced eastward at this time, in order to contain the main force of the Cao army, and it was necessary to attack quickly. So if anyone answers it, let it go quickly. ”

"This matter ......"

Gongsun Du thought for a while and said: "According to Fengxiao's words, it's just that there was a lot of trouble back then, and Cao Cao must have known what the Huang family master and others did, so he must take precautions, but don't fall for the other party's way." ”

"Ming Gong rest assured, Jia can be self-reflective, when the time comes, Cao Jun will only use any tricks, Jia will let him know what it means to have people outside the people, and there are mountains outside the mountains."

Gongsun Du looked at Guo Jia, who was proud, shook his head, and didn't say anything more. Because Guo Jia is proud of this capital, after Cao Cao's defeat in Chibi, he once exclaimed bitterly: "If Fengxiao is still there, it will not cause Cao Cao to suffer this defeat!" ”

Regardless of whether this is true or not, judging from the fact that no one else dares to excuse it, Guo Jiazhi's ability is indeed extraordinary, at least under Cao Cao, it is second to none.

Right now......

Attacking the shield of the son with the spear of the son?
