Kuai Liang returned to Dingzhou County, met with Liu Biao, and said that he would stop the war with Yuan Shu. Liu Biao was also slowly relieved when he heard this result!

Liu Biao stared intently at the map in front of him, thought about it and asked, "Zirou, Liu Bei's 200,000 troops have been stationed in Jiaozhi County for nearly a month.

Moreover, the dozens of scouts sent over were like sinking into the sea, and there was no news, do you think this Liu Bei is preparing some big move to deal with me? ”

Because Liu Bei defended the entire Jiaozhi County very strictly, more than a dozen waves of Liu Biao's scouts were captured by Liu Bei's army! Therefore, Liu Biao and Kuai Liang didn't know anything about the affairs in Jiaozhi!

"Lord, there is no specific information at this time, so it is impossible to find out Liu Bei's specific deployment at all, but the lord has an army of 100,000 to defend it to the death, and even if Liu Bei has an army of 200,000, it is not possible to defeat the lord's army overnight! So the lord doesn't need to worry! Kuai Liang was relieved.

"Hey, that's the only way, no news is the best news, after Bushan County is stable, I will mobilize 50,000 troops from Bushan County to Linchen County, so I can rest assured!" Liu Bei thought for a while and said.

After hearing this, Kuai Liang nodded, indicating that he knew about it, and then the two discussed some government affairs in the governance of Yulin County and Hepu County, and Kuai Liang took his leave and left!

It has been nearly a month since the army led by Liu Bei left Goukou County, and within this month, the army led by Gao Shun, Chen Dao, and Zhao Yun has alternately become the vanguard to open the way!

On this day, the army had marched to a place where there were only three days left before entering Sangguan, and Chen Zhi led the army to rest in the forest ahead!

Liu Bei's march was completely a way to open a road in the mountains and build a bridge when encountering water, and all the trees encountered along the way were cut down, but the purpose of this march was to build the road to Sangguan in the later period of Jiaozhi County!

Although some time was sacrificed, it also saved me more trouble in the future.

At this time, in May, the weather began to get hotter, and the weather in Jiaozhou was even hotter, and it was noon at the moment, and the army led by Chen Zhi was thirsty!

Chen Zhi sat under the shade of the tree, perhaps because the weather was too hot, or because the waiting time was too long, Chen Zhi asked Yan Rui beside him a little impatiently: "Ziyong (Yan Rui's character), why hasn't the scout who went to look for water come back yet?" ”

Although Liu Bei's army was moving along the Ming River, there was no shortage of water before, but since the day before yesterday, he has stayed away from the Ming River and wants to enter the direction of Sangguan, so now the water source has become a problem!

When Yan Rui heard this, he hurriedly replied: "General Chen, the scout has already come back before, and he has already gone to fetch water with a team of soldiers just now, and it is estimated that he will be able to come back in a while!" ”

In this way, Chen Zhi and Yan Rui waited patiently for a while, and there was really a team of soldiers slowly walking towards the camp! It's just that the situation of this team of soldiers is a bit abnormal.

These soldiers are all holding hands, shoulder to shoulder, and they are still wailing, if it weren't for the large number of people who can support each other, Chen Zhi and Yan Rui have reason to believe that these soldiers will roll on the ground!

In this way, Yan Rui hurriedly ordered his own soldiers to meet this team of soldiers, and then Yan Rui found a soldier who was quite sober and could explain the vernacular and asked:

"What happened, what's wrong with you all?"

"Huh... Solemn... General, I... We... He was ordered to fetch water and arrived at the small lake that the scout had said. We... We were so hungry and thirsty that we first drank a lot in the lake.

It's just that when we get water for the Chinese army, we... But we began to have unbearable abdominal pain, like ants eating bodies! "The soldier told the story of the people intermittently!

"Not eating or drinking anything else?" Yan Rui asked!

"No more!"

At this time, Chen Zhi had already rushed over, heard the conversation between the two, and thought: "Could it be that this water is poisonous?" ”

So while sending people to the rear to report to Liu Bei, he hurriedly ordered the military doctor to treat this team of soldiers!

Speaking of military doctors, this is what makes Liu Bei's army different from other princes' armies. Although the military doctor is an auxiliary soldier in Liu Bei's army, he is treated the same as an elite soldier, and no one disagrees.

Moreover, Liu Beimei's 2,500 soldiers must be equipped with ten military doctors, and they are all apprentices and grandchildren trained by Hua Tuo and Hua Tuo's apprentices! The medical skills have really saved the lives of many soldiers.

But if you say that you can get the true biography of Hua Tuo, it is nonsense, and there are very few people who can get the true biography of Hua Tuo, and they are all left in Chang'an by Liu Bei to maintain the body of the generals under his command. When Liu Bei goes on the expedition, there will be two people with the army!

In a few moments, several military doctors came to treat these soldiers, but no matter how they were diagnosed and pulsed, they could not find the cause, and they could not even be sure whether they were poisoned or not!

When he was at a loss, Liu Bei led a team of men and two military doctors to arrive, these two military doctors were the disciples of Liu Bei who were waiting by Liu Bei's side at any time when he went on the expedition, and Hua Tuo became a true successor!

After Liu Bei learned that ordinary military doctors could not be treated, he asked the two military doctors around him to learn common sense. These two military doctors also know how to do it, and they can conclude that these soldiers are poisoned, but they can't detoxify!

In this regard, Liu Bei was helpless. However, because of the unbearable pain, the shouts of these soldiers were so loud that they could be heard from miles away, which made the soldiers in the barracks even more panicked!

In desperation, Liu Bei ordered this team of soldiers to be sent to three miles away for resettlement, and at the same time, all the military doctors went to find a way!

At the same time, he ordered the army to camp here, and ordered Zhao Yun to lead a cavalry to the rear of the Mingjiang River to fetch water! It takes a day and a night, but it's better than being dyed of thirst and poison!

At this moment, while this group of soldiers and the tent three miles away were wailing, there was a white-clothed scribe collecting medicine on the mountain in the distance.

However, in a trance, the medicine collection room heard the shouts of these soldiers, so he said to himself: "Could it be that someone has accidentally drunk the water in the Ten Thousand Worms Lake?" ”

Therefore, the white-robed scribe stopped what he was doing. Then he stopped and listened intently for a while, and then suddenly he was stunned. It was as if he had determined something, and put away the basket and hoe for collecting medicine. Let's go down the mountain!

……

Liu Beizheng was helpless, and suddenly heard a pro-soldier tell him that another scribe outside the camp said that he could cure the poisoned soldiers!

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this, and then personally went to the camp to invite the scribes, and then personally introduced the scribes into the tent.

When the scribe saw Liu Beizhi, he felt that he was domineering, and he was by no means a different person, but he had never heard of it, so he simply bowed and said:

"A certain doctor who was originally living in seclusion in the mountains, heard that there were soldiers in the army screaming, and in the spirit of the doctor's benevolence, he came to the rescue!"

"So, a certain Liu Bei Liu Xuande has thanked me here!" Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this, and he didn't care about his identity, so he bowed down and saluted the scribe!

And the scribe heard that it was Liu Bei, but he was not so calm, although he lived in the mountains, he was not isolated from the outside world, and people in the family often came to visit him and brought news from the outside world to know to himself!

Therefore, the scribe also knew Liu Bei's name, and during this time, he knew that Jiaozhou Xizhong was under Liu Bei's command! Therefore, compared to the previous one, it also seems more respectful!

However, Liu Bei didn't care much, but directly took the scribe's hand and walked towards the wailing soldier camp!

Although the scribe probably guessed the cause of these soldiers, he made a diagnosis and treatment in the spirit of caution, and finally said to Liu Bei:

"Hussar general, these soldiers should have mistakenly drunk the water in the Lake of Ten Thousand Insects in the northeast to cause the pain in their abdomen like ten thousand insects gnawing.

Therefore, if I want to heal, it is not difficult, so I will go and collect some herbs, and when I come back, I will be able to cure the disease! ”

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this, so he ordered Yan Rui to go with him, but to see if the scribe had anything to help!

At the time of the two pillars of incense, the scribe came back with Yan Rui, and Yan Rui was carrying several kettles and a bundle of herbs in his hand!

After that, the military doctor, on the instructions of the scribe, poured the water from the kettle into the pot, put the herbs in the water and boiled!

Just as the scribe was about to give these soldiers to drink the boiling potion, Yan Rui stood up and stopped: "Lord, no, these waters are all taken out of the Ten Thousand Worms Lake, and the previous soldiers used the water in the Ten Thousand Worms Lake to do this, and then let them and this water, isn't it poison on poison?" ”

The scribe looked at the wailing soldiers, then at the potion in his hand, and finally at Liu Bei, but he didn't make a sound!

Liu Bei's eyes rolled when he heard this, although he was a little apprehensive, but he didn't answer Yan Rui, but said to the scribe: "Please continue to heal, sir!" ”

The scribe nodded, and after half an hour, all the soldiers drank the potion, and they all recovered!
