The book is picked up again.

In the early morning of the seventeenth day when the princes' coalition army left Luoyang, in Cao Cao's mansion.

"Hmph~~" Li Zhizheng hummed a song he didn't know what track it was with a happy face, while dealing with official business.

It can be seen that he is in a very good mood now.

As soon as he tested a drug that could cure the plague, he immediately administered the medicine to the patient in a small area.

It's not that Li Zhi is unwilling to apply drugs on a large scale, but Li Zhi is afraid that these drugs will harm others.

After all, everyone's physique is different, and the medication may be different, so Li Zhi tried the medicine within a small range.

Fortunately, these drugs did not disappoint him, and after taking the medicines, except for a few elderly people, they really couldn't bear the harm of drugs, and everyone else was cured one after another.

Seeing this, Li Zhi immediately put down the order and asked Jia Xu to administer the medicine throughout the city, and it was necessary to let all the patients take this medicine in the shortest possible time.

After a night of struggle last night, most of the people in the city who were infected with the plague have recovered.

There are only a few people who are particularly weak and still struggling on the verge of life and death.

However, this is also helpless, after all, they have lost too much time!

Some people were already weak and had not eaten for a day or two, and with the plague, their bodies had completely decayed!

Therefore, even after being fed medicine, it is difficult for them to recover in a short period of time.

However, it's all scabies and doesn't matter.

In such a large-scale plague, only a few thousand people died, which was the first time in the world!

In the past, even a small contagious cold and flu would kill a large number of people!

This time, such a powerful plague can be eliminated in a short period of time, even if thousands of people die, but no one can say that Li knows no!

Not only did no one blame Li Zhi for this, but many people were grateful to Li Zhi.

Many people in Luoyang City have set up an immortal card for Li Zhi!

When Li Zhi was happily handling official business, Jia Xu's voice came from outside the door: "Lord Qiqi, my subordinates have something important to report." ”

After Li Zhi heard Jia Xu's words, he said in a pleasant voice: "Come in." ”

After Jia Xu came in, he first saluted Li Zhi, and then opened his mouth to report: "Lord Qi, the battle between the princes' coalition and Dong Zhuo has been decided!" ”

"Oh?" After Li Zhi heard Jia Xu's words, he asked eagerly, "Who won?" ”

When Jia Xu heard this, he immediately replied: "Although on the surface, it was the princes' alliance that was repelled by Dong Zhuo, but in fact, they were both defeated!" ”

After Li Zhi heard Jia Xu's words, his heart felt as if a little hand was scratching, and it was uncomfortable!

Therefore, he said eagerly: "Quickly explain the ins and outs of the matter to Ben Hou!" ”

"Whoa!" After Jia Xu heard Li Zhi's words, he responded and slowly told the ins and outs of the matter.

"After passing through Tongguan, the coalition army of the princes ignored the plague and rushed directly in the direction of Chang'an City.

Perhaps, Cao Cao wanted to capture Chang'an City before the plague broke out, so he was so eager.

When he arrived in Chang'an City, he immediately launched an attack!

It's a pity that the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, and Cao Cao did not expect that the spread of the plague would be so fast, and within a day or two, nearly half of the army of the princes' alliance army would be infected! ”

After Li Zhi heard this, he interjected inexplicably and asked, "Then how did Brother Meng De deal with those infected troops?" ”

When he asked this, Li Zhi actually already had the answer in his heart.

Although on weekdays, Cao Cao looks very peaceful.

However, Li Zhi has never underestimated Cao Cao's decisiveness and ruthlessness!

Sure enough, as Li Zhi expected, after Jia Xu heard Li Zhi's words, he said with a calm face: "Cao Cao saw that the plague spread so fast, so he decisively burned all the troops infected with the plague alive!" ”

When he said this, even with Jia Xu's ruthless heart, his face couldn't help twitching.

You know, that's 60,000 or 70,000 people, and if you say it's burned, you will be burned to death!

This kind of mind is really frightening!

After Jia Xu knew about this, he suddenly had infinite awe of Cao Cao!

"......" Li Zhi immediately fell silent after hearing Jia Xu's words.

Although he had already guessed the answer, he was still a little uncomfortable when he heard Jia Xu say it.

In his opinion, those people died because of him!

If it weren't for the fact that he agreed to Jia Xu's bad idea, this kind of tragedy would never have happened!

"Hu ......" Now that the incident has happened, it is useless to pursue responsibility.

So, after a long exhale, he asked, "And then?" ”

After Jia Xu heard Li Zhi's inquiry, he immediately said: "Although Cao Cao's method is indeed very cruel, it is very useful!"

When he burned the sick, the plague in his army stopped.

Seeing this, Cao Cao did not dare to slack off, and immediately commanded the army to continue to attack Chang'an City.

And the city of Chang'an was not having a good time, when the princes' coalition army attacked, the corpses of many people infected with the plague fell into the city.

As a result, the people and army in Chang'an City were infected with the plague!

Without a day's effort, there will be no more strength to fight against the entire Chang'an City! ”

When Li Zhi heard this, his brows furrowed tightly.

He just hoped that Cao Cao could weaken Dong Zhuo's strength, and he didn't want Dong Zhuo to die.

Moreover, once Cao Cao breaks through Chang'an City, he will definitely welcome the little emperor back, and when the time comes, he will be embarrassed.

After all, after the little emperor is rescued, he will definitely return to Luoyang.

And now Luoyang is under the control of Li Zhi.

If the little emperor returns, then there will definitely be contradictions between them!

At that time, Li Zhi's trouble will be big!

Thinking of this, Li Zhi immediately asked, "And then?" Could it be that Brother Meng De really defeated Dong Zhuo? ”

Because he was too concerned about this matter, Li Zhi had forgotten what Jia Xu said when he first came.

After hearing Li Zhi's words, Jia Xu replied unhurriedly: "Lord, please rest assured, Dong Zhuo did not fail!"

After he saw that all his subordinates were infected with the plague, he immediately held the little emperor hostage and threatened Cao Cao to withdraw his troops!

If Cao Cao doesn't retreat, he will kill the little emperor immediately! ”

"I see!" After Li Zhi heard Jia Xu's words, he breathed a sigh of relief.

This matter did not surprise him, he had imagined that if Dong Zhuo reached the end of the mountain, he would definitely hold the little emperor hostage!

Now it seems that Dong Zhuo did not disappoint him.

Then, he suddenly thought of something and asked Jia Xu, "Where does Brother Meng De plan to go after he retires from the army?" Where is it now? ”

After hearing Li Zhi's words, Jia Xu shook his head and said, "The subordinates don't know where Cao Cao wants to retreat.

However, he has now left Tongguan and is coming to Luoyang.

In a few hours, they may return to Luoyang. ”

"That's ......" Li Zhiyan touched his chin, and after thinking for a while, he said to Jia Xu: "After a while, you go and prepare some knife wound medicine, as well as medicine to treat the plague."

When Brother Meng De led the army here, he immediately treated their wounds and treated the plague.

Although Brother Meng De was burning those infected with the plague, he temporarily stopped the plague.

But, after all these days of spreading, I am afraid that most of his army have been infected with the plague!

Now, we can cure the plague, but we can't let Brother Meng De burn the rest of the army to death! ”

"This ......" Jia Xu asked with some hesitation after hearing Li Zhi's words, "Lord, don't you think this is a great opportunity?"

As long as Cao Cao's army is all infected with the plague, according to Cao Cao's fierce temperament, he will definitely burn all these people to death, so as not to leave disaster to the world!

When the time comes, he will become an empty alliance leader!

If the lord allied with him at this time, he would definitely be grateful to Dade!

In this way, wouldn't it be possible to achieve the goal of the lord?

If the alliance of the princes is cured and Cao Cao has confidence, when I form an alliance with him again, Cao Cao will not attach much importance to the lord.

Moreover, it is too unlikely that he will agree to the various conditions of the lord. ”

"Hehe......" After hearing Jia Xu's words, Li Zhi shook his head with a smile and said, "Mr. Wenhe, you are too underestimate the other princes in the princes' alliance!"

Although they were subdued by Cao Cao for a while, after this defeat, Cao Cao's prestige was not as good as before.

At this time, the other princes will definitely find a way to drive Cao Cao out of the position of alliance leader!

Even if Cao Cao can keep his position as the leader of the alliance, the princes will definitely force Cao Cao to return the soldiers and horses to them!

Because the other princes are not stupid, and now they can see that the world has begun to be in chaos!

And when the world is in turmoil, only soldiers and horses are the most reliable!

Therefore, they will definitely try their best to wrest military power from Cao Cao's hands!

And Cao Cao, whose prestige had already plummeted, couldn't stop the other princes at all.

Therefore, even if Benhou cures the plague of the princes' coalition army, Cao Cao will still have nothing! ”

"The lord is right!" After hearing Li Zhi's words, Jia Xu nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then the subordinates will go and prepare first." ”

"Hmm" After Li Zhi nodded, he advised: "Although Benhou asked you to mobilize medicine to treat the princes' coalition army.

But don't touch the medicines that have already been distributed and are going to be shipped to all parts of the world.

Because those medicines are the life-saving medicine of the people! Whoever dares to move, who dies! ”

After finishing speaking, Li Zhi's eyes were full of murderous intent!

He knew that in this plague, there must be many people from small families who held these medicines and did not use them for the commoners who owned the land.

When the land-owning civilians die of the plague, they will take the land for themselves!

This kind of thing was not uncommon in the past, so Li Zhi prepared early.

He sent countless armies and scattered them to the various places where the medicine was applied.

Once he found out that any family dared to control these medicines, his army would immediately wipe out that family!

After hearing Li Zhi's words, Jia Xu nodded as usual and said, "Please rest assured, my subordinates will not encroach on the medicines that the people need."

Subordinates would spend a lot of money to buy medicines from other places for the princes' coalition to use.

If there is any violation, the subordinates are at the disposal of the master! ”

Through these years of getting along with Li Zhi, Jia Xu can also see that his own lord, attaches great importance to the common people.

So, he didn't dare to encroach on the interests of the common people at all?

And Jia Xu has reminded his family many times not to let them rely on their relationships to do nonsense!

Otherwise, if he doesn't wait for the lord to deal with it, he will take his family seriously!

Jia Xu can see that the people of the world are Li Zhi's reverse scales.

As long as you don't touch the interests of the people in the world, even if you point at Li Zhi's nose and scold him, Li Zhi will only think that you are joking with him, so he laughs it.

However, once someone touches Li Zhi's scales, the consequences ......

Anyway, Jia Xu didn't dare to imagine!

"That's good!" After Li Zhi heard Jia Xu's words, he nodded reassuringly.

He knew that although Jia Xu was sleek, he was very good at saving his life.

Therefore, since Jia Xu has enough guarantees, then he will definitely not encroach on the slightest interest of the people!

"In that case, you go down first, and Benhou should also prepare and go out of the city to meet Brother Meng De."

After finishing speaking, Li Zhi stood up and walked towards the back hall.

He was going to change his clothes and greet Cao Cao in person.

An hour later, Li Zhi took his Wenchen generals and stood outside the gate of Luoyang City, quietly waiting for Cao Cao.

He had already received a report from Tanmalai, and in less than half an hour, Cao Cao would be able to come to Luoyang City.

Although at an ordinary marching pace, Cao Cao's army could reach Luoyang City within a quarter of an hour.

However, because they had suffered a defeat and most of the army had contracted the plague, their march was more than twice as slow.

What used to take a quarter of an hour now takes half an hour to arrive.

Although Li Zhi waited for a long time, he was not impatient at all at this time.

Because, he not only solved this plague, but also used this plague to form an alliance with Cao Cao.

Moreover, Chang'an City, which was infected with the plague, must have suffered heavy losses!

In this way, his intention to weaken Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao at the same time has been achieved, how can this not make him happy?

Although Li Zhi had patience to wait, Guo Jia was impatient.

After waiting for so long, he was already impatient.

Therefore, he shouted loudly: "Brother, why hasn't Brother Meng De come yet?!" Otherwise...... Shall we go and greet you? ”

After Li Zhi heard Guo Jia's words, he shook his head and said, "No, the country has national laws, and the family has family rules!"

Brother Wei is now a marquis and a hussar general, and being able to meet the coalition of princes outside Luoyang City has given them great face.

If you go out for your brother again, it will not be to give face to Brother Meng De, but to kill him!

When the time comes, people all over the world will definitely feel that Brother Meng De doesn't know what to do and is proud of his achievements, so wouldn't it hurt Brother Meng De? !

So, let's wait for Brother Meng De here honestly.

Don't be too anxious, it will take at most half an hour for him to come here. ”

After Guo Jia heard Li Zhi's words, he nodded clearly.

He was a little impatient to wait just now, so he forgot the etiquette.

According to Li Zhi's identity, if he really went out to greet him, he was really suspected of killing Cao Cao!

Now, after hearing Li Zhi's explanation, Guo Jia immediately understood.

Therefore, he no longer continued to talk about this, but asked Li Zhi about Chang'an: "Brother, do you plan to treat the plague for the soldiers and civilians in Chang'an City?" ”

"Of course!" After hearing Guo Jia's inquiry, Li Zhi nodded as a matter of course and said, "In this world, there is still no shortage of the little emperor and those civil and military ministers around him.

Therefore, Brother Wei can't watch Chang'an City fall!

After tomorrow, arrange for the Brotherhood to send medicine to the Great Wall to treat them for the plague. ”

When Guo Jia heard this, he frowned and asked, "In this way, wouldn't it be cheaper than Dong Zhuo?"

Most of Dong Zhuo's subordinates have been infected with the plague, and if his brother sends the medicine to treat the plague into Chang'an City, he will definitely intercept it as soon as possible and give priority to treating the soldiers under his command!

In this way, wouldn't the other people in Chang'an City have no medicine available? ”

"That's true." After hearing Guo Jia's words, Li Zhi nodded and said, "If Brother Wei only goes to treat the people in Luoyang City, then Dong Zhuo will definitely intercept the medicine!"

Therefore, in order to let the people in Chang'an City have medicine available, Brother Wei plans to treat all the people infected with the plague in the entire Chang'an City! ”

When Guo Jia heard this, he frowned and asked, "Including Dong Zhuo's subordinates?" ”

"That's right!" Li Zhi nodded firmly and said, "Including Dong Zhuo's subordinates!" ”

After finishing speaking, he looked in the direction of Chang'an City and continued: "When I wait for tomorrow, I will mobilize a large amount of medicine for my brother and send it to Chang'an City.

And, for the brotherhood to use these drugs to make a deal with Dong Zhuo.

The content of the transaction is that his brother is willing to treat the plague for Dong Zhuo's subordinates, but Dong Zhuo must not stop his brother from treating the people in Chang'an City!

In order to quickly recover his strength, Dong Zhuo will definitely agree to this deal!

At that time, the people in Chang'an City will be able to get medicine to treat the plague. ”

"......" Guo Jia fell into silence after hearing Li Zhi's words.

He knew that Li Zhi's approach was not wrong, and if he didn't treat Dong Zhuo's subordinates, Dong Zhuo would definitely not agree to Li Zhi to treat the people in Chang'an City.

Perhaps, when Li Zhi sent people to deliver medicine to the people, Dong Zhuo would snatch those medicines!

Because in Dong Zhuo's view, the forces under his command are the most important, just untouchables, and if they die, they will die! How can he compare to his soldiers?!

Therefore, if Li Zhi wants to treat the people of Chang'an, he can only meet Dong Zhuo's requirements first!
