239. Plague

Zhang Fei's fire burned a total of three streets of houses, and after the city was taken, Liu Bei immediately commanded his soldiers to extinguish the fire. This tossing was more than an hour, and it was not until late afternoon that Liu Bei finally sat in the Taishou Mansion. This day's fierce battle made Liu Bei feel very tired, and Zhang Fei needed to rest when he was out of strength, so Liu Bei canceled the celebration banquet and ordered his subordinates to perform their duties before going down to rest.

In the turn of the day, Jia Xu fell to the report of the shadows: Han Fei ordered Zhao Yun and Pang De to lead the army to attack the enemy camp at night and break Wuhuan. Moreover, the Wuhuan people are no longer able to capture Lulong City.

Jia Xu didn't dare to slack off when he received the news and immediately reported to Liu Bei, Liu Bei had just gotten up at this time, so he ordered the guards to prepare breakfast, and he wanted to eat and chat with Jia Xu. At this time, Jia Xu handed over the news from the shadow, and Liu Bei was overjoyed when he saw it: "Zicong really lived up to my expectations!" Now that Wuhuan has retired, Yuan Shao has also been defeated. There is no opponent in Jizhou and Youzhou. ”

Jia Xu looked at Liu Bei so happy, and secretly frowned in his heart: "Could it be that I am too careful?" So Yuan Shao really has no backhand? As the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back. Seeing that Liu Bei was so happy now, he really didn't want to ruin his good mood, the most important thing was that Jia Xu hadn't thought of what tricks Yuan Shao had now.

Liu Bei immediately wrote to Guan Yu and Han Fei, asking them to arrange the affairs of Youzhou and then return to the army to join him, and then see if they could destroy Yuan Shao. After the letter was sent away, Liu Bei ordered a reward for the three armies on the same day, so the three armies slaughtered chickens and sheep up and down.

In the blink of an eye, it was three days, and suddenly, without warning, some people began to vomit and some showed fever. At first, there were only three or five people, and gradually the number continued to rise. In just one day, the number of people in life increased to more than 500.

The military doctor was in a hurry, and immediately reported to Liu Bei that he knew. Liu Bei didn't take it seriously at first, but as the military doctor described it, his face suddenly became serious. At this time, he had already thought of a very bad thing, Liu Bei asked in a trembling voice, "Could it be the plague?" ”

A trace of panic flashed in the military doctor's eyes, and he nodded with difficulty: "Lord, although I am not completely sure, I have symptoms of the plague!" ”

"Ahh How good is that? Liu Bei stood up and said.

"My lord, for the sake of the future, the patients should be quickly isolated, and the water source should be inventoried, this plague is mostly due to the unclean water source." Before the military doctor finished speaking, Jia Xumeng's eyes on the side widened, and at this time he already understood Yuan Shao's backhand. "A good Yuan Shao is so vicious, no wonder there are not many families and poor people in this Bohai City, it turns out that he wants to bury Liu Bei and everyone under his command here!"

Thinking that he was afraid that Jia Xu would interrupt the words of the military doctor here, he hurriedly spoke: "Please also ask the lord to give an order not to use the water in the city again, and then send a large army to carry water to the city nearby." ”

Liu Bei also thought of a possibility at this time, and his face turned pale: "Wen He, what do you mean ......?"

"Yes, this must have been done by Yuan Shao!" Jia Xu said firmly.

"Isn't that you, and I have already been tricked?" Liu Bei laughed miserably. No wonder he was afraid, it was really the name of the plague that was too appalling, a plague with ten rooms and nine emptiness, it is no exaggeration to say that there are more people than wars.

Jia Xu sighed and comforted: "Lord, we haven't gotten sick yet, I think it's because we haven't drunk raw water, I remember Zicong once said to me, there are many harmful things in raw water, remember not to drink raw water when marching." Now it seems to make sense. ”

At this time, the military doctor also interjected: "In this case, the lord should also order that the whole army should no longer drink raw water, no matter what kind of water it is, it must be boiled before drinking." ”

Liu Bei was out of proportion at this time, and after listening to this, he nodded and said, "I'll give the order!" Do you have anything else to add? ”

"This ......" the military doctor pondered for a moment: "The lord also invited Hua Tuo, the dean of the School of Medicine, to come here, if anyone can cure this disease, it must be him!" ”

"Good!" After hearing this, Liu Bei did not dare to hesitate and immediately ordered, the whole army was forbidden to drink raw water, and those who violated the order were immediately beheaded! Then he sent people to thoroughly investigate the water source, and at the same time sent people to fetch water outside the city. Then he ordered his henchmen to hurry back to the city of Changyi, and he could rush here with Hua Tuo.

Liu Bei's reaction was unpleasant, but the number of sick people continued to increase, and the number of people had reached 3,000 after another two days. At this time, Liu Bei finally found out the truth, it turned out that all the wells in the city had rotting corpses, and they were all tied to stones and sunk to the bottom of the wells. Even the wells in the Taishou Mansion are no exception.

After Liu Bei learned the news, he vomited, he couldn't have imagined that the water he drank today was actually dug from this well. After vomiting, Liu Bei also fell ill. At this moment, the whole city was suddenly in chaos. At this critical moment, Han Fei arrived.

It turned out that since he repelled the Wuhuan people, Han Fei had pondered about returning to the army, and he left Zhao Yun and Shan Jing to guard Lu Long City. Then he took Pang De and Yan Rou and returned to Youbeiping City with the captives. Guan Yu was also very happy after learning the news of the big victory, and he immediately held a banquet for Han Fei and the others.

During the banquet, Han Fei said: "The second general is still fighting fiercely in Bohai City, we should lead the army to attack, and attack Yuan Shao's army on both sides." ”

Guan Yu laughed after hearing this: "Zicong, don't you know yet? Bohai City has been taken by the eldest brother. But the eldest brother sent a letter asking you and me to lead the troops forward, saying that they were going to join forces to crusade against Yuan Shao? ”

"Oh! In this way, Yuan Shao Lao'er is afraid that it will be difficult to sit still! Ha ha! Han Fei laughed. However, after laughing, Han Fei said again: "Second General, now that Youzhou has been decided, you still need to have an idea of who should stay here to guard." ”

Guan Yu nodded after hearing this: "I have also thought about Zicong, I decided to stay here for a while, you go to meet the eldest brother first, and everything is arranged by the eldest brother." ”

Han Fei couldn't help nodding when he heard this: "This is the safest, but in this way, I am afraid that the crusade against Yuan Shao will have to be postponed." That's it, I'll wait until I meet my lord. So Han Fei rested in Youbeiping City for one night, and the next day he went to Bohai City, accompanied only by Chen Dao, Sun Wu and other personal guards and Mi Fang's 1,000 people.

Besides, when Han Fei arrived in Bohai City, he heard the news that Liu Bei was seriously ill, and he was shocked at the moment! hurriedly asked about the past, and Jia Xu briefly recounted the past. Han Fei's face became more and more ugly, and when he heard what Jia Xu said, he immediately ordered martial law in the whole city, and no one was allowed to move around at will. And ordered Mi Fang to leave the city immediately with a thousand people, and not to enter the city without an order.

One more, ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommendation, ask for a reward, ask for a collection.

Friends, at this moment, the little military master Han Fei needs your strong support! Come and support me! Thank you.
