Last time, it was to lead the water of the Yellow River to swallow the county, so that tens of thousands of corpses of the people of Wei County were floated, and this time Liu Xiu wanted to create a plague and destroy Feng Mao's army along with Yizhou County.

In the past, Liu Xiu always thought that no matter how crazy he was, he would not break through the bottom line of morality, but now he is sitting in a wooden barrel, using the cold river water to dispel the demonic thoughts in his heart as much as possible, hoping that he can calm down.

"Sun Qing, have I become very terrifying now?"

"The lord is not wrong, what is wrong is the way of the world. The people in the county should be robbed and killed, in order to overthrow the rule of the tyrant Wang Mang. Along the way, Wang Sunqing witnessed Liu Xiu's growth, and many times he had no choice but to force himself to do things that were morally degraded again and again.

"You said this just to make me feel better, but now my heart is disturbed, and I am no longer suitable to command the whole army, and you will take the position of commander first."

"Please rest assured, my lord, I will not let you down."

After a few days of surveying and figuring out the sources of several drinking water in Yizhou County, Wang Sunqing did not immediately order the pollution of the water source, but had been waiting for King Yelang to lead the big and small barbarians to arrive.

With the appearance of all kinds of totem flags and the atmosphere of the imminent war, the depressed entire Yizhou county town market was empty, and even the most stubborn children seemed to feel the danger, obediently hiding in the arms of their mothers and asking for shelter.

The plan to exterminate humanity was still launched, and the Yelang warriors who carried out the operation not only sank the hundreds of decomposed human corpses with stones into the source of mountain springs and streams, but also sacrificed themselves as virus makers.

At first, there was only an old man from a poor family who coughed and dizzy, and the younger generations in the family thought that the old man was suffering from the cold, so they simply boiled some ginger soup for the old man to take. After a few days, the old man's condition worsened, he began to have a fever and vomit, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye.

When the person left suddenly, naturally he did not invite Langzhong, and the person died of illness, so naturally there would be no autopsy, and no one thought about whether there would be anything wrong with it.

The traditional funeral is the simplest, reporting the funeral, entering the funeral, guarding the shop, resting the coffin, condolence, funeral, and burial, especially the shop, the body is placed in the house without any protective measures, allowing it to slowly corrode.

The funeral was over, but the younger generations of the old man also began to cough and dizzy, and what was even more terrifying was that the people close to them also had the same symptoms, and by the time the Yizhou county guard reacted and dealt with it, the number of infections and deaths had risen to tens of thousands.

Isolation, disinfection, and burning are the methods passed down from the ancestors to cure the plague, and in the past, when this kind of problem was encountered, the county guards were in charge of the strategies, and the generals led the troops to carry it out, but Feng Mao's official position was higher than that of the county guards, if it weren't for the fact that there were many Yizhou county people in the army, Feng Mao didn't even want to lend a soldier to the county guard.

In the west of the city, a large number of houses have been emptied specifically to isolate patients, and quicklime on both sides of the streets and alleys has to be sprinkled every day for disinfection, and the loss of medicinal materials is increasing day by day, and even a few medicinal materials are about to run out.

At this juncture, there were a lot of rumors among the people, some people said that Feng Mao's army had a lot of medicinal materials in reserve and was unwilling to take them out to help the people, some people said that the medicinal materials in Feng Mao's army were secretly looted in the county town when the plague arose, and in the final analysis, none of them were good.

As the so-called three people become tigers, the taste of being roasted on the fire is super uncomfortable, Feng Mao summoned all the strategists to agree on the strategy, but this is useless, the answer given by the strategists is that there is no solution to this plan, and only a part of the reserves can be given to appease the people and simultaneously buy time to break out of the city.

Why a breakout and not a decisive battle? During the whole discussion, Feng Mao's face was blackened throughout the whole discussion, and if he hadn't been held down by the lieutenant general, he would probably have ordered to kill a few strategists who didn't like him.

Seeing that Feng Mao insisted on going his own way, he ordered the army to prepare for a decisive battle with the southwestern barbarians, and the strategists were so cold that even a few people were quietly preparing a way back for themselves.

The horn of the decisive battle sounded, but Wang Sunqing only regarded it as a joke, the initiative on the battlefield had always been in his hands, why did Feng Mao ask for a decisive battle.

The barbarian camp in the southwest was built like a hedgehog, and horses and traps were placed everywhere, and every attack of Feng Mao's army was forced back by sharp arrows from the sky.

Time is just going on day by day, and it won't be long before the plague will run out of medicinal materials and get out of control, and the Yizhou Shi clan began to contact Wang Sunqing frequently.

That night, Wang Sunqing sent away the people from the Shi clan, and brought Pang Meng and Gai Yan to Liu Xiu's camp to recuperate, and said: "My lord, our army will raid Yizhou County in the early morning of the day after tomorrow, do you have something to explain to us." ”

"The plague must be extinct in Yizhou County and not spread to other regions."

"A certain general commands!"

On the third day of the tenth month of the third year of Tianfeng (16 A.D.), the Yizhou county scholars attacked and guarded the city gate, but what greeted the Yizhou county scholars was not victory but a cruel massacre.

"Why?" The Yizhou Shi clan was stunned, and was still asking for the answer before he died, Wang Sunqing didn't look at him after drawing his knife, and shouted as he ran: "Pang Meng and Gai Yan are acting according to the plan, and if anyone makes a mistake, they don't have to come back." ”

Time was running out, and after giving the order, Wang Sunqing rushed to the isolation area in the west of the city.

The fire quietly broke out, and many sick people rushed out of their houses and were bloodily slaughtered by the barbarians in the southwest wearing masks, and just as the people were scurrying around like headless flies, a voice sounded, giving them a way to escape.

"Run to the official barracks, where can the army save us."

This sentence is also Wang Sunqing's military order, the southwest barbarians have been learning this sentence during this time, and now that they have received the order, the barbarians have slowed down the speed of the massacre and driven away instead.

"Back off, all back off." In the tent area of Feng Mao's barracks, soldiers held spears and relied on horses to confront the sick people.

The southwestern barbarians were killing people all the way, and the people who were stuck behind and couldn't come forward first urged, and then began to squeeze forward after realizing that the urging was useless.

Accidents in the midst of panic are common, but it is terrifying if someone is secretly manipulating public opinion.

One voice: "The officers and soldiers have killed people". The scene was completely chaotic.

As some people began to scold and start throwing things at the soldiers in Feng Mao's barracks, more and more people participated, and the young general in charge of the garrison hurriedly asked people to ask Feng Mao for instructions, but all they got back was: "Those who trespass into the barracks will be killed." ”

Life passed and turned into cold corpses, and the people were angry, they were going to die horizontally and vertically anyway, and they had to pull someone to back their backs.

The guards of Feng Mao's army were overwhelmed by the crowd, and some of the crazy people spat on the officers and soldiers, and some wiped their hands stained with the blood of the sick on the mouths of the officers and soldiers, so that the barracks were in chaos and everyone was in danger.
