Chapter 313: Wooden City, Closed City!

After killing his uncle, Wuhuan Xiaowang Wu Lili then painfully released a sad and sad unfortunate news to the Wuhuan army, due to the plague, his uncle, Wuhuan King, Wu Ri Ralai died of illness last night at the age of fifty-three. Although Wuri Ralai's decision to insist on going south made many people angry, and also caused the entire Wuhuan army to fall into the plague, he was the king after all, and the Wuhuan king above 10,000 people under one person, the whole army suddenly choked up and became sad, and some people even cried.

Wu Lilu looked at everyone with a sad face, but he sneered in his heart, and then ordered the whole army to wear black clothes to pay tribute to this Wuhuan hero who opened up the territory for the empire. However, because he died of the plague, Wu Lilu then announced that his uncle's body would be burned, and only the ashes would be returned to the Wuhuan Empire, and that all those in the army who died from the plague must be burned - including the guards of the Uzhralai.

There used to be a rule in the Wuhuan army that the guards would accompany the burial of the lord when he died, but since Bilitu became the khan, this unreasonable system was abolished. However, in order to cover up the news of his assassination, he ordered all the guards of Uri Ralai to be martyred.

After two days of mourning, Wu Lilu ordered an immediate retreat, and after arriving at the Yajin granary, he immediately listened to Urkanha's advice and divided the soldiers into two parts, the soldiers infected with the plague lived in Jincheng, and the other soldiers who were not infected with the plague lived in the camp of Yashan.

Urkanha was fully aware of the severity of the plague and was powerless when it suddenly snowed heavily in Saibei, and the Jialan River was closed, and people had to burn snow water and ice water to drink. The boiling hot water killed most of the plague bacteria, so that the Wuhuan army was not greatly affected by the plague, and only more than 10,000 people died before and after, which has to be said that they took advantage of the time.

After Wuhuan withdrew, the servant armies of the other vassal states withdrew to the country, and in the southern part of the Tartar Wasteland, Roland to the two wolf passes, once again returned to the Han army.

At this time, Zhang Xiaowu, although he defeated the army of Wuhuan going south and forced them to retreat, he knew that it was not himself or the Han army that defeated the Wuhuan people, but the plague.

The plague forced the Wuhuan people to have a truce, and the plague also forced them to retreat, although the successive killings under the wooden city made Zhang Xiaowu's reputation and popularity reach the highest, and everyone called him the god of war, but this god of war is now facing a more dangerous enemy than the Wuhuan people - the plague!

Zhang Xiaowu was not happy, not only was he not happy, but his heart was full of panic and uneasiness, he knew the horror of the plague. The plague is an invincible enemy, it never rests and never accepts surrender.

In the memory of Zhang Xiaowu and his wife, the scene of mankind fighting the plague was always played out every few decades.

In the previous life, the greatest loss to mankind was the plague of the Black Death in medieval Europe, which was called the Great Plague of the European Middle Ages, from 1347 to 1353 in just six years, the Black Death took the lives of 25 million Europeans, and it was precisely because of the death of 25 million people that Europeans no longer believed in religion, there was the Renaissance movement, and there was the later development of science and technology.

The second plague in Zhang Xiaowu's memory was born in Kansas, the United States in World War I, and the United States participated in the war, and US President Wilson covered up the news because of the demoralization caused by the United States in order to avoid the plague. Spain, a neutral country at the time, reported the plague as soon as it was discovered, but was stigmatized by the countries of World War I as the Spanish flu. The Spanish flu killed 40 million people around the world and forced the end of World War I, but European countries did not really think that the war should be stopped, which was one of the reasons for the outbreak of World War II.

The plague that impressed Zhang Xiaowu for the third time in his memory was the **** that came from the American virus laboratory and took the lives of hundreds of thousands of Americans, and in order to cover up the truth about the United States' research on genetic virus weapons, the Americans tried their best to stigmatize and slander China, which was the first to raise the alarm, as the country of origin of the virus. However, the fact is that the countries they stigmatized have risen strongly, and the United States has fallen into cultural and economic chaos, and it is really hard to imagine that a country that is the world's number one will deal with hostile countries in a way that harms others and does not benefit itself.

In this world, plagues also exist, such as the plague that occurred in the last year of the Great Dao, which actually took the life of the Great Dao Emperor. Emperor Taiqian suddenly succeeded to the throne of the emperor, which also benefited from this, but the plague in Longdu City took the lives of one-tenth of Longdu people, so that after the plague ended, Emperor Taiqian had to select craftsmen from all over the country to forcibly move into Beijing to enrich the population.

The terrible thing about the plague is that it does not allow the opponent to surrender, Zhang Xiaowu is more afraid than everyone else, and he also remembers Helan Zong's advice that no one should be allowed to enter the city.

So, when everyone was cheering and celebrating, when 10,000 Jincheng soldiers happily rushed to the gate of Mucheng, Zhang Xiaowu said calmly on the city wall: "Close the city gate, and no one shall be allowed to enter the city." At the same time, Zhang Xiaowu announced that no contact was allowed between people inside the city and outside the city, and the 10,000 soldiers outside the city immediately went to the epidemic village on their own to wait for follow-up orders.

The 10,000 Han army finally survived, was it abandoned by the robe? Despite Helan Zong's warning, everyone still couldn't get over the hurdle in their hearts. Among them, Chen Qing was the most anxious, his red eyes looked at the former robe, but he couldn't reach out to help, and his teeth squeaked.

Hu Sanwan couldn't bear to say: "General, in fact, these people can still be placed in the city, we can divide an area for them in the city......"

"Have you forgotten? The Helan military waiters also did not agree to their entry into the city. Hu Li immediately reminded, "Everyone, when the plague enters the city, who can guarantee that it will not be infected?" ”

"If they die outside, who is the murderer?" Shen Lindong smiled bitterly, he naturally thought more far-reaching, whether the imperial court would pursue them.

Xiao Kai looked at Zhang Xiaowu and said, "General, what do you mean?" ”

"I still don't agree with them going into town." Zhang Xiaowu was entangled in his heart, but his attitude was extremely resolute: "We can beat Uzi, Tartar, and Wuhuan, but we can't beat the plague." There are 10,000 people infected with the plague outside the city, and they are all the source of infection now, and I can tell you that after these 10,000 people enter the city, our wooden city will become an undefended city like the golden city. I can't make this bet with my own mercy, with your lives, with Mucheng. ”

Hu Li and Zu Gongmao said: "What the general said is extremely true. ”

Ruan Qingwen reminded: "If the general does not accept them into the city, he is afraid that outsiders will know about it, and the general will be impeached." ”

Shen Lin Dong said: "Yes, I am also worried. General, all kinds of merit are not as good as the slander of others. Some people will say that the merits and demerits are demerits, how can the merits and demerits be offset, and what is the general's method? ”

Zhang Xiaowu sneered contemptuously: "Impeach me? ”

Ruan Qingwen said: "The general is open-minded, but I have been an official for many years, and what I have seen the most is not those officials who can do things, but those mediocre people who are jealous of their hearts. The general has made miraculous achievements in Saibei, but in their eyes, the general is just an outsider. General, you are from a civilian background, you must not take a wrong step, you must not take a wrong step. ”

Everyone couldn't help but smile bitterly, Zhang Xiaowu paced left and right, and Hu Li immediately shouted: "His grandmother's, neither in front nor in the back, the people in the court can't resist the enemy, but it's okay to stab someone else?" ”

Ruan Qingwen smiled bitterly: "I'm just afraid of this." ”

Zhang Xiaowu looked at the soldiers and said: "Everything is borne by me, do not let the sick die enter the city, everything is borne by me, from today onwards, Mucheng, close the city!" ”
