Chapter 317: Sick and Fleeing
Zhang Xiaowu didn't show any affection, and directly debunked: "I think the beggars shouldn't want to leave, at least they don't want to leave this winter, they just want to leave some famous factions, right?" Inuyi was defeated, Saibei was stable, and the three-year Saibei War finally came to an end, and they must want to go back and promote themselves. Alas, although everyone came to Mucheng to protect their families and defend the country, they can share hardships and hardships, and it is difficult to share wealth and wealth, and their thoughts must be clear to Elder Ran. ”
Ran Gushi was said again, smiled embarrassedly, and said, "General, if you forcibly leave them, I'm afraid that everyone will be dissatisfied." ”
Zhang Xiaowu is naturally not afraid of everyone's dissatisfaction, and the more than 2,000 rebel troops are nothing compared to the lives of tens of millions of people in the Central Plains. He thought for a while before he said: "Now that the city is closed, the army and the people are one, whether it is the righteous army or the people, they must obey the order. Elder Ran, I still need your old man to tell me that after a month, the lockdown will end, but now you can't leave a single one. ”
Ran Gushi retreated, and Wu Song said, "General, it's serious. ”
Zhang Xiaowu sighed and said: "I hope the plague is not serious, I would rather be serious." ”
The rebels were forcibly retained for the time being, but Zhang Xiaowu also knew that they would not be left for long, after all, people's hearts could not be contained with orders and demands. The heart of the rebels who want to go home is nothing more than that winter is coming, and there are still more than two months to go before the New Year, and the Han people in the Central Plains, no matter what their status, always habitually return home to celebrate Chinese New Year's Eve with their elders.
The rebels are not soldiers, so naturally they will not have the general consciousness of soldiers, Zhang Xiaowu just kept them for a while, and waited for Chen Guanxi to transport the silver back, so as to give everyone a reward as soon as possible. He was also worried that the righteous army would scold him for being ruthless and unrighteous, and he also knocked on the side to ask Zhu Wushuang to inquire, Zhu Wushuang's deer-like eyes kept purring, pointing at him and laughing: "You're also afraid that others will scold you?" ”
Zhang Xiaowu cried and laughed: "I'm not afraid of others scolding me, I'm afraid that others will misunderstand me." I sealed the city for their good, but if I am misunderstood, it is worse than unjust death. ”
Zhu Wushuang clapped his hands and said, "Don't worry, although everyone has a certain amount of resentment, they all know that you are for their good, and everyone will say that you have reacted too much." Everyone also knows that you have locked up the soldiers in the plague village to avoid the spread of the plague, so some people think that they can go home if they are fine, and if you don't let the big guys go home, they will stay for a few more days. ”
On October 28 of the first year of Dade, the first death case of plague appeared in Mucheng City, which was the scout who first discovered the plague, Zhang Xiaowu immediately ordered the burning of everything he had, and sprinkled the house with lime to kill bacteria and viruses - and at this time, the plague village had been reduced from more than 10,000 people to more than 9,000 people.
In just ten days, a thousand soldiers in the plague village died, which even exceeded the death rate of Jincheng Shi. Because the people live in the same barracks, often when they get sick, they die in the barracks, and their miserable appearance is terrifying. In addition to the plague death, many soldiers committed suicide in despair, which also increased the trouble of Helan Sect.
Helan Sect tried his best to manage the epidemic village, but many people in the epidemic village were not his subordinates, and a few people quietly stored food, wrapped in quilts and secretly escaped to the two wolf passes. Helan Sect didn't have time to find out about these people, after all, there were too many people who had died recently, and he thought they were also dead, so he ignored them.
These people bypassed Mucheng and walked towards the Two Wolves Pass, walked hard along the wind and snow for three days and three nights, and finally came to the City of the Two Wolves.
When the wolf guard saw the prisoners of war in Jincheng, they burst into tears one by one and led them to the pass.
The news of Mucheng's three great victories aroused the envy of the wolf guards, and the new commander of the wolf guards, Murong Yan, was annoyed, but he never expected that the little guy in Saibei would soar into the sky, defeating the 300,000 troops before and after Uzi, Tatar and Wuhuan one after another, and defeating 300,000 dogs with 10,000 ghost guards, not only creating a unique victory in the history of the Holy Han, but also making many Shi generals lose face, and the limelight was all stolen by Zhang Xiaowu, a boy from a civilian background.
Subsequently, Zhang Xiaowu's letter reached the Two Wolves Pass, warning him about the plague in the north and the closure of Mucheng.
Murong Yan was nervous for a while at first, and forbade people to enter and leave the Two Wolves Pass, but as time progressed, Murong Yan found that the plague did not cause a disaster, and even many people did not know about the plague. So he ordered the two wolf passes to be reopened, and the people outside the pass could enter the city and the market.
For Murong Yan's hospitality, several sick Han soldiers who escaped from the epidemic village were moved, so they told him all their experiences. And what interests Murong Yan the most is that Zhang Xiaowu categorically refused more than 10,000 people to enter the city to recuperate, but drove them to the plague village This ruthless move, which can be said to be "extermination", so far, the Han army has died of almost 2,000 diseases, all thanks to Zhang Xiaowu.
"It's so shameless!" Murong Yan's subordinate generals jumped up angrily, "This person has a wolf's heart and a dog's lungs!" If it weren't for the delays of the generals of Jincheng, how could he be his general with peace of mind? Crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, shameless! ”
Murong Yan's subordinates scolded Zhang Xiaowu one after another, but Murong Yanyan pressed it with his hand and said: "After all, this Zhang Xiaowu has killed many dogs, no matter whether he uses a trick or luck, in the eyes of the emperor, he is earning face for the empire." You have the ability to make noise here, why don't you have a three-way inuyi? ”
A soldier said: "That's because our wolf guards can only guard the pass, if the emperor asked us to go out of the city to find the dog Yi to fight, we would have already made great achievements." ”
Murong Yan nodded and said, "What Zheng Junhou said is extremely true, but you can't do anything, the past will pass." Now we can't watch the more than 9,000 robes of the epidemic village die tragically! Zhao recorded the incident, immediately drafted the fold, I want to participate in him Zhang Xiaowu a grass to ignore people's lives, betray the robe! Zheng Junhou, ordered 2,000 soldiers, took 1,000 carriages, and immediately rushed to the epidemic village to pick up the robe! He Zhang Xiaowu didn't treat Pao Ze, and our wolf guards couldn't watch them die. ”
"Whoa!"
Soji set off with the wolf guards, one to the north and the other to the south, but apparently the wolf guards to the north were faster, and it only took two days for them to reach Mucheng. Helan Zong was shocked, hurriedly found the wolf guard, and hurriedly said: "Can't go, they can't go, once they enter the customs, the consequences are unimaginable!" ”
Zheng Junhou sneered three times and said: "Wolf Wei can't see death without help, Helan Junhou, you still have to take care of your own affairs, if you follow that Zhang Xiaowu again, I'm afraid ...... The future is ruined. How good can a commoner be, you were deceived by him. ”
When the soldiers heard that they could enter the Two Wolves Pass to recuperate, they immediately ignored Helan Sect's obstruction, and rushed to the Two Wolves Pass with them. Helan Zong had no choice but to send someone to tell Mucheng that there were more than 7,000 sick soldiers who had gone to the Central Plains.
