Chapter 512: Actions of both sides
The military doctor looked nervous, took out a pulse diagnosis, and began to diagnose Zhu Hao's pulse, and after pressing his fingers on Zhu Hao's wrist, his expression gradually turned from nervousness to consternation.
After a while, the military doctor didn't say anything, his fingers moved away from Zhu Hao's wrist, and then he turned around and bowed to the outside world:
"Thank Heaven for your mercy!"
The military doctor said, turned to Zhu Hao and bowed:
"Congratulations, Your Highness, your body has recovered, but it is still a little weak, and with a little recuperation, it will be as good as ever!"
The military doctor couldn't help but sigh:
"Your Highness, I have never seen such a situation in the practice of medicine for so many years, I have to say that Your Highness is blessed with heaven, and you have to be favored by God, Your Highness's situation is really a miracle!"
Zhu Hao listened to the words of the military doctor, laughed and said:
"Well said!"
"Since this king is a person who is favored by heaven, then those Japanese slaves will be unlucky!"
"Today's revenge for the disease, this king will not forget, and when this king catches that bastard of Tokugawa Iemitsu, he will definitely let him taste the power of this virus!"
Zhu Hao said, his eyes looked in the direction of the Japanese island Jingshi, and his eyes were full of anger.
With Zhu Hao's body recovering, he has been recuperating for half a month, and Zhu Hao has been thinking about what method to use to sanction Tokugawa Iemitsu.
Since Zhu Hao knew that the source of the plague in the army was planned behind the scenes by Tokugawa Iemitsu, he thought that if it was just to conquer the Kyoshi of Wajima and capture or kill Tokugawa Iemitsu, it would be too cheap for him.
After thinking about it, Zhu Hao thought of a desperate plan, he wanted the Tokugawa family to eat the consequences, and after having this idea, Zhu Hao first found Zhou Yu and asked:
"Governor Zhou, these days, this king is not here, can the method of cowpox be able to restrain the plague?"
"Has anyone who had cowpox ever contracted the plague?"
Zhou Yu listened to Zhu Hao's inquiry about this, and immediately said with a happy face:
"Back to Your Highness, since the soldiers of our army have had cowpox, no one has been infected with the plague, but there are too few cows with cowpox, and the number of officers and soldiers in our army is huge, so there are still people who get cowpox in time and are infected with the plague!"
After listening to Zhou Yu's words, Zhu Hao's heart was in his stomach, and then he ordered:
"Order the whole army to leave 30,000 horses, and the rest all evacuate from Wadao, infected with the plague, take a total of one boat, so as not to be infected again, all the retreating ships, need to stay at sea for three months, and after three months, they can return to the dock of Fuzhou Port!"
The reason why Zhu Hao ordered this was because he was afraid that these soldiers would bring the hidden danger of the plague back to Daming, and the three-month quarantine period was enough to be sure that the people who returned did not carry the virus.
Because of these three months, it will completely make people who are infected and have not carried the past leave this world.
Although this order was a bit cruel, Zhu Hao had to give such an order for the sake of more people in the Ming Dynasty.
After Zhu Hao gave this order, he ordered Zhou Yu again:
"The 30,000 people left on Wadao must all have been infected with cowpox, you have to deal with this matter personally, and you can't be sloppy in the slightest!"
Zhou Yu listened to Zhu Hao's order and seemed to think of what Zhu Hao was going to do, but he didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.
Because in Zhou Yu's opinion, Zhu Hao almost died because of this plague, so what kind of revenge Zhu Hao made is reasonable.
With the issuance of Zhu Hao's two orders, the entire Ming army moved, and with the Ming army, a large-scale withdrawal had begun, which attracted the attention of Tokugawa Iemitsu, who was cowering in Kyoto, Washima.
In the face of such a strange move by Daming, Tokugawa Iemitsu, for a while, couldn't figure it out, so he asked people to find him, and his chief of staff, Yamada Nobunaga, asked:
"Yamada-kun, the Ming army has withdrawn, what do you think is going on?"
"After thinking about it, I can't understand why they want to withdraw their troops!"
Yamada Nobunaga was also surprised when he heard Tokugawa Iemitsu's words, and he pondered for a long time before he replied:
"General, according to the subordinates, it may be them who feel the threat of our secret weapon to them, or because their commander is dead, other than that, the subordinates can't think of any other reason to let them withdraw their troops!"
The reason why Yamada Nobunaga Zhou analyzed it like this is because he didn't know that Zhu Hao's body had recovered and was preparing to retaliate against them at the moment.
Tokugawa Iemitsu listened to Yamada Nobunaga's analysis, nodded slightly, and said:
"Yamada-kun, your analysis is very reasonable, it is true that only in these two cases, they will choose to withdraw the army, if the commander of the Ming Dynasty is really dead, then this time Yamada, you have made a great contribution!"
"But whether the boss of the Ming Dynasty is dead or not, their retreat is good news for the general!"
Tokugawa Iemitsu said, his eyes rolled a few times, and he said to Yamada Nobunaga:
"Yamada-kun, do you think it is feasible if we take the opportunity to attack the Ming army now?"
"Ben will think, if it is really the death of the boss of Da Ming, if we can invite his corpse over, as his prince, Ben will believe that Da Ming will be willing to use a large amount of materials to compensate us for our losses this time!"
Yamada Nobunaga listened to Tokugawa Iemitsu's words, extremely moved, since he was humiliated by Zhu Hao last time, Yamada Nobunaga's whole person, all he thought about was how to take revenge on Zhu Hao, he had already lost his former wisdom.
Therefore, Yamada Nobunaga, after listening to Tokugawa Iemitsu's words, agreed and said:
"What the general said is extremely true, if we can really snatch the corpse of that Ming prince, Daming will definitely be willing to exchange his property with us!"
The two of them, who were carried away by the imaginary property, immediately hit it off and decided not to stick to the Jingshi of Wajima, but to act against the retreating army of the Ming Dynasty.
With Yamada Nobunaga, after agreeing with Tokugawa Iemitsu's words, Tokugawa Iemitsu immediately ordered the entire city to assemble soldiers and horses, ready to go out of the city to pursue the retreating army of the Ming Dynasty.
Just when Tokugawa Iemitsu was about to make a move against the retreating army of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Hao's intelligence chief, Wei Xiaobao, captured the news, he didn't dare to slack off, and reported it to Zhu Hao as soon as possible.
When Zhu Hao listened to Wei Xiaobao's report, he immediately looked calm and sneered:
"What a Tokugawa shogunate, they are all dying, and they dare to plot against my Ming army, they are really in a hurry to reincarnate!"
"In that case, then this king will fulfill them!"
Zhu Hao said, and immediately ordered:
"Pass on the king's military order, the whole army will act according to the plan, this time the king wants to let these slaves know that this king is powerful!"
