Chapter 433: The ferocity of the epidemic
The crowd walked quickly into the city, and on the way, Xiaochuan learned what happened: "Sick? I was weird in my heart, why did Sima Lang fall ill well? I just wanted to get to the mansion quickly, but I found that the chaos inside the city was worse and more chaotic than I imagined.
The attics on both sides have become simple houses, which are full of victims who have fled here from outside, a bad smell spreads, there are corpses next to the street but they don't know how to die, a team of Beifu soldiers patrols on the street, the Beifu soldiers with strong crossbows in front walk in the front, and the soldiers with spears and halberds behind them, these corpses were probably shot to death by them, they look cold and look at the victims around them, Looking for possible green-skinned hooligans and the like to maintain order, but the people around them did not cast grateful eyes, some were only afraid.
Han Gang and the others all applauded, thinking that they should manage this city like this and punish the green skins, Han Gang snorted and said, "Haha, dealing with these green skins should be like this, shoot them to death with an arrow!" Let's see who dares to make trouble! He said that Han Tie, Wang Youcai, and Lantian all agreed.
Li Yi shook his head, looked around with solemnity in his eyes, and said: "Don't general, there are too many evils in doing this, and it is easy to breed plagues, not to mention it, it is easier to make the people afraid of us!" And it's easy to kill by mistake!" Xiao Chuan glanced at him differently, and several of them pouted, thinking that he was thinking too much.
"Hey, what a plague! You see, old Han, I have never been sick since I was a child, and if I die a few green skins, there will be a plague, haha, General Xiao Li, you are too cautious" Han Gang said with a smile. The crowd laughed.
Li Yi just shook his head, a little disappointed, and didn't say anything, Xiao Chuan said strangely: "You are even proficient in medical skills!" Xiao Chuan was a little surprised that Li Yi was a man with superb swordsmanship, even if he was proficient in various battle formations, I heard that he was studying Yu Dayou recently, Qi Jiguang's book of war studied the Ming Dynasty car formation, but he could play the piano and write poems made Xiao Chuan wonder if he had lied about his age, otherwise how could he be proficient in so many things at the same time in his twenties.
"Yes, I am also proficient in medical skills," Li Yi said, looking at the corpses around him, with an inexplicable desolation in his eyes, he shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Han Gang was a little surprised when he heard Xiao Chuan say this, and recently Xiao Chuan has been paying more and more attention to this Li Yi, which made him very unhappy, and hummed: "Hmph, Old Han, I also know some medical skills!" Ogawa laughed.
The hungry people in tattered clothes on both sides saw the natural retreat of this group of armor soldiers, and they seemed to have an instinctive fear of those wearing armor, and they naturally avoided Xiao Chuan and the others.
There were already many people around who were blue and vomiting, and some were already dying on both sides of the road, lying numbly with a kind of despair in their eyes. Xiao Chuan, who watched it, felt bad for a while, and couldn't help but recall Qi Wangheng's words in his mind: "If the epidemic is discovered, the four gates should be closed and the city should be burned" Xiao Chuan naturally understood the meaning of the other party's burning, and his heart trembled a little, and the people of several cities were burned to strangle the epidemic in the cradle.
Seeing these hungry people with strange diseases, Li Yi had a kind of horror in his eyes, and said: "Childe, I'm afraid it's a disaster" Han Gang and a few people next to him didn't understand, and said: "Isn't it just sick, just transfer the doctor in the city." ”
"I'm afraid it's a plague!" Li Yi shook his head and said, several people were frightened, and Han Gang said, "Plague? How can there be a plague! "They're all terrified, and they're instinctively terrified of the word.
"Originally, there were many victims in the city, and the corpses were not disposed of, so it was most likely to breed plagues" Li Yi pointed to the corpses hanging on the city wall on the side, and sighed.
Han Gang and the others looked at the corpse of the city, and only then did they understand that doing so would really breed a plague. "How can this be good?"
"The top priority is to figure out the type of plague so that it can be treated," Li Yi said.
Xiao Chuan was about to continue asking, but he heard a noisy sound in the distance, but there was a shed in front of him, but hundreds of hungry people gathered around him at once, and there were many hungry people in the distance, and Xiao Chuan was very strange where to come to see.
The group of hungry people of the "officers and soldiers" were all frightened, and at the same time, many of them were surrounding the shed in the distance as if they wanted to protect something, and they were very wary of Xiao Chuan and the others. This made a group of people see the situation in front of a person in white, wearing a thick white cloth to look at the figure should be a woman, but the face is covered with a layer of cloth and can't see what she looks like, she is seriously checking the symptoms of an old man in front of her, if ordinary people see this stinking old man, I am afraid that they would have retreated, but the woman was extremely gentle to help him up, and said, "Uncle, you take my medicine and try it back, the condition should improve." She carefully brought the medicine again, and muttered strangely, "This is not a symptom of typhoid fever, is it really strange?" ”
"Thank you, thank you Bodhisattva" The old man kept thanking,
Xiao Chuan and the others all nodded, Li Yi's eyes flashed with a different meaning, but Han Gang shook his head and said, "Hmph, how can there be a reason for a woman to come out and be a doctor?"
Hearing the words of Xiaochuan in the distance, the woman raised her head and said indifferently: "You officers and soldiers, kill people on the streets every day, causing the plague in the city to become more and more serious, what, do you want to kill the little woman today?" "She has a very nice and crisp voice.
Many people in the vicinity fell to their knees. Some have already begun to kowtow and say, "Please, soldiers, let this female Bodhisattva go."
"Please, all the soldiers, you can do it, don't kill the female Bodhisattva, please let her live, kill us."
"We have no malicious intent," Han Gang said, and the people nearby still kowtowed vigorously, while the woman helped everyone up and looked at Xiao Chuan and the others with angry eyes. "Just kill me, don't hurt the people here"
Xiao Chuan and the others were all inexplicable, so they could only leave, and said strangely, "Why are these people so afraid of us, as if we will be unfavorable to that woman?" ”
The Beifu soldiers on the side touched their heads and said embarrassedly: "That's the case, some time ago, General Sima heard that the city was coming, thinking that the female doctor was still from Shaanxi, and that she escaped from Zhang Xianzhong's military camp and wanted to ask her for information. ‘
When Xiaochuan and the others heard this, they all looked at the back with strange faces. is to understand why this woman is so indifferent to herself and others, and why those people want to protect that woman like that, as if they are waiting for others to kill the female doctor.
"Humph! This woman doesn't know the etiquette, and she is a thief! Han Gang immediately snorted coldly and said, but Li Yi said, "This matter is General Sima's mistake."
"What's wrong, if it's Lao Han and me, I'll kill him directly!" Han Gang snorted and said. Han Tie pouted and said, "Brother, you are really more and more similar to Bai Mo now, you know how to kill!" ”
While talking, he came to the mansion, and he didn't see Sima Lang in the lobby, but when he arrived in the side room, he saw Sima Lang lying on the hospital bed. The soldier sighed, "The general has been seriously ill for several days, and he called the lord to report the plague in the city," and the men nodded.
"General Sima, haha, I haven't seen you for a long time" Han Gang said, but Sima Lang didn't move, and a few people were strange,
The soldier stepped forward and suddenly looked panicked, and put his hand on his nose General! The soldier cried "General, don't scare me, don't sleep, the lord is here, wake up, wake up, general".
Han Gang and the others stepped forward, and Sima Lang's face was no longer lifeless, and his chest was no longer heaving. This? At this moment, Xiao Chuan understood the severity of the plague in the city. Li Yi stepped forward and rolled his eyelids, looked at it again, with a strange "really?" This plague is so weird! It's not like typhoid fever, and it's not like other epidemics! ”
Xiao Chuan didn't hear Li Yi, his nose was a little sour. Although Sima Lang didn't see much of them, they were all brothers in the army, so he naturally had some feelings, and a few months ago he told himself that he wanted to protect a piece of paradise and continue to guard this mountain and river with the Beifu soldiers, but at this moment it has become the lifeless empty shell on the bed and the indescribable feeling, this painful parting of life and death.
Behind him, Li Yi sighed and said, "General Sima is dead, what to do in this city!" Xiao Chuan thought about it, at this moment, there are 8,000 soldiers from the three provinces of Henan, and this group of elite soldiers can only be commanded by Sima Lang and himself, who will preside over this chaos when he dies at this moment? It was difficult for other generals to suppress this group of arrogant generals.
"This time, we can only mobilize the Tuntian army from Shandong," Han Gang said, Han Tie immediately said with worry: "No, no, the plague must not spread here!" What if you get infected with the plague! Several people fell silent again.
"I'll stay, Childe!" Li Yi clenched his fists and said, "I am good at medicine, and no one is more suitable for this position than me," he said.
"The plague is rampant in the city," Han Gang and the others were worried. "Forget it" Although they talk about it on weekdays, no one wants Li Yi to stay here at this moment.
You? Xiaochuan shook his head and sighed and glanced at Li Yi, "I won't leave for the time being, stay here!" Xiao Chuan said that with anti-inflammatory drugs, he was not afraid of this plague, and Xiao Chuan naturally did not know the horror of this plague.
"No, Childe, if you get sick, this!" Han Gang and the others all shook their heads, in case Xiaochuan had something to do, not to mention that the heads of the various armies had different thoughts, that is, those Huns and Roman soldiers were afraid that they would fight directly, and the Shandong army was afraid that it would collapse.
"Childe, just let me stay, among the generals, I am the only one who is proficient in medical skills, and only a few of our brothers can command this group of Beifu soldiers in the city, no one is more suitable than me," Li Yi said with his fists cupped.
Han Gang and the others were dissuaded, unwilling to let him take risks, Han Gang said, "This! Forget it, don't keep it, this just left! He said in a choked voice. Han Tie patted him on the shoulder.
"The people of the city can't help it! We can't send other people to come over and take risks, if the plague can't be controlled, Guanwen should burn the city! There was a great deal of firmness in his words.
"I don't want you to burn the city with the city and survive! We still have to continue to destroy the thieves," Xiao Chuan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and handed his sword to Li Yidao, "From now on, the eight thousand Beifu soldiers in the city will be handed over to you."
Li Yi solemnly held the sword and stood up, looking extremely serious.
Outside the city, another spy rushed in and said, "Oh no, the situation in the north has changed"
