Chapter 587: The Plague

The terrible plague has finally begun to spread. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

First of all, a small number of wounded soldiers felt unwell, at first they didn't take it seriously, thinking that they had eaten a bad stomach and casually prescribed some medicine, but in the next few days, hundreds of wounded soldiers felt unwell and began to vomit and discharge, and then this strange disease soon spread to the healthy soldiers.

In the days that followed, the plague continued to spread, and the number of sick soldiers quickly increased to more than 1,000.

On the tenth day, soldiers died one after another, and Xiahou Yuan, a close general and brother of Prime Minister Cao Cao, was already extremely weak because of the recurrence of old sores, and finally failed to survive, becoming the first general to die of the plague.

Prime Minister Cao Cao realized that things were not good, and hurriedly convened all the princes to urgently discuss countermeasures.

"What else is there to discuss! Withdraw your troops, withdraw your troops immediately, and get out of this damn place! ”

In Cao Cao's big tent of the Chinese army, Lu Bu's wolf-like roar echoed.

Previously, Lu Bu decided to fall to the Yellow Turban, and he has always been inconspicuous in the coalition army, and he will never come out no matter what happens, but this time Lu Bu really can't help it! In the battle before the Tiger Prison Pass, although Lu Bu's subordinates did not suffer much losses, but now the cronies and generals Cheng Lian and Song Xian have also fallen ill one after another, and this time Lu Bu couldn't help it anyway. Go to the fucking coalition, go to the fucking yellow scarf, Lu Bu doesn't care about anything at this time, and protecting his subordinates is the most important thing.

"No, don't withdraw your troops!" Liu Ray Huo Ran got up and said sharply, "Once the coalition forces withdraw, they will inevitably bring the plague back to the place of governance, and in this way, this plague is likely to sweep across the whole of China, causing an unprecedented catastrophe!" ”

Lu Bu said angrily: "If you don't withdraw your troops, will you stay here and wait for death?" ”

Liu Ray said: "Although this plague is menacing, but it will not lose control for a while, and it will not take away the surnames of a large number of Kwantung soldiers, Ray thinks that the top priority is to immediately send people to various places to visit the world's famous doctors, if someone can really cure this plague, then the soldiers of the three armies are very lucky, and the people in the world are very lucky." ”

"If you want to die, General Ben will not accompany you!" Lu Bu let out a loud shout, turned around and left. A strong man behind Liu Lei flashed in front of Lu Bu, Lu Bu glared at him, and shouted, "Who dares to stop it!?" ”

Tai Shi Ci said sharply: "Lu Bu, Liu Gong's words are the words of the common people in the world. If you insist on this, Ciwen Lu Bu is the first brave general in the world, and today he will not be able to comprehend it! ”

"Hahaha~" Lu Bu looked up to the sky and laughed, the sharp Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand pointed directly at Tai Shici, and said sharply, "It seems that Bu hasn't killed anyone for too long, and the mere shaft dares to stop me?" ”

"Lu Bu, do you want to rebel?" Cao Cao suddenly came out of the queue and shouted, "There is a word today, all the princes should learn from Liu Gong, and they need to think of the common people in the world, if there is any more words to withdraw the troops, they will be regarded as thieves and the same party, and everyone will be punished!" ”

"Sonorous!"

In the crisp sound of gold and iron grinding, Cao Cao's generals Xiahoudun and Cao Hong drew their swords at the same time, blocking Lu Bu's way, Lu Bu's expression was awe-inspiring, even though he was not afraid of Xiahoudun, Cao Hong, and Tai Shici joining forces, but his subordinates were only a few thousand, how could they resist Cao Cao's tens of thousands of troops? The most important thing is that Cao Cao's sentence is regarded as a thief and a fellow party, which makes Lu Bu's heart empty.

Thinking of this, Lu Bu couldn't help but be a little discouraged, so he had to retreat.

Inside the Tiger Prison.

The situation of the Yellow Turban Army was not much better than that of the Allied Army, although Jia Xu had ordered people to tear chalk powder all over the barracks, and strictly forbade the officers and men of the three armies to drink raw water and eat raw food, but these preventive measures did not stop the spread of the plague to a limited extent, and sick soldiers soon appeared in the Tiger Prison Pass.

Jia Xu secretly executed dozens of soldiers who fell ill first, but the number of sick soldiers increased, and they soon lost control, and in the end, thousands of people contracted the plague, and Jia Xu had to give up the execution countermeasures and isolate the sick soldiers instead, but even so, it still failed to control the spread of the plague.

"Ahem, cough, cough~~"

Jia Xu, who was looking at the map at the desk, suddenly coughed violently, and saw that his thin body was almost clumped, and he looked at Gao Shun and Xu Chuzhu next to him, and his heart trembled, lest Jia Xu didn't come up in one breath, and he would die with a whimper, and the Yellow Turban Army would be in chaos.

"Sir." Xu Chu's eyes showed a look of concern, and he reminded angrily, "You have to be careful of your body." ”

"It's okay, it's just an occasional cold." Jia Xu waved his hand, but a trace of imperceptible gloom quietly flashed in his eyes, and asked Gao Shun, "General Gao Shun, have the coalition forces continued to attack?" ”

Gao Shun clenched his fists and said, "Mr. Hui, the coalition army has not attacked for several days. ”

"Hmm." Jia Xu nodded, bent over and coughed violently, and then said weakly, "Generals, please, I am a little tired, and I want to rest for a while." ”

Gao Shunzhu clenched his fists and rushed out.

After the generals left one after another, Jia Xu said to the secret guard who turned into a personal guard: "Black Tiger." ”

The black tiger stepped forward, clenched his fists and said, "Sir." ”

The haze in Jia Xu's eyes was revealed, and he said to the black tiger: "Alas, Xu still underestimated the lethality of the plague, although our army has been strictly guarded, but it is still not free from poison, it seems that even if this plague can disintegrate the 300,000 coalition army, the Yellow Turban Army guarding the pass will also take more than half of it!" Nine times out of ten, it will not be able to escape this catastrophe. ”

"Sir, don't say such ominous things!" The black tiger said in a deep voice, "Sir, the saint's medical skills are unparalleled in the world, and the villain will go to meet the saint in the starry night!" ”

"Ahem~Wait~" Jia Xu gasped, "Black Tiger, Xu has already repaired a letter, you can first submit the letter to the public rule, and then the official rule will arrange a matter." If the saint had come in time, she might have saved the lives of the sick soldiers! ”

Outside the Tiger Prison Pass, the Cao army camp.

Guo Jia was sweating badly, waking up from his sleep, only to see the fire in the tent, Cao Cao was pretending to sleep in front of his couch with his hand, and behind Cao Cao, there were Xiahoudun, Li Dian, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xun You, Cheng Yu, and everyone had anxiety on their faces.

Cao Hong's eyes were sharp, and he was the first to see Guo Jia wake up, and immediately said happily: "Lord, Mr. Guo Jia is awake, he is awake!" ”

Cao Cao was startled, and when he looked down urgently, he saw that Guo Jia had woken up and sat up, and was bowing to him, Cao Cao was overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold Guo Jia's hands, and two tears were dripping in the tiger's eyes, and he choked up: "Fengxiao, Fengxiao!" You've woken up. ”

Cao Cao is really happy, if Guo Jia also died like Xiahou Yuan, this time he really broke his left arm and lost his right arm, but fortunately, Guo Jia's life was hard, and he was in a coma for more than ten days, and he even miraculously woke up!

"My lord." Guo Jia also choked weakly and said, "Thank you for your concern." ”

"Come, Bonghyo lie down." Cao Cao helped Guo Jia lie back on the couch and asked with concern, "Is there any discomfort in your body?" ”

"Lord, it's okay down here!" Guo Jia smiled bitterly at Cao Cao, "It's just that I'm a little hungry." ”

"Zilian." Cao Cao turned back to Cao Hong and said, "Go and find some food for the military advisor." ”

"Okay."

Cao Hong agreed and went happily.

"My lord." Guo Jia said to Cao Cao, "Is there already a plague in the army?" ”

Cao Cao Qi said: "Fengxiao has been unconscious for the past few days, how do you know that there is a plague in the army?" ”

"When Jia was young, there was a plague in the township, and Jia was unfortunately infected and almost died, but fortunately, there was a miracle doctor who passed by, and the medicine was widely applied to save the lives of the sick villagers, and Jia was also saved, so I knew." Guo Jia said this, and then said happily, "If it weren't for this disaster when I was a child, Jia is afraid that I won't have the opportunity to give advice to my lord." ”

Cao Cao was puzzled: "How do you say this? ”

Guo Jia said: "The lord doesn't know, although this plague is powerful, but if the patient can escape the catastrophe without dying, he will have resistance to the plague, and he will have a great chance of surviving if he suffers from the disease again, so Jia can escape this catastrophe, otherwise, I am afraid that he will have been dead for a long time." ”

"I see." Cao Cao was stunned, and then asked, "Feng Xiaofang just said that there is really a divine doctor in the world who can cure this disease?" ”

"Yes." Guo Jia said, "This miracle doctor's surname is Hua Mingtuo, and he is in Runan. ”

。。。。。。

At the beginning of July of the 11th year of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, after nearly a month of galloping, Zhang Jun finally led 30,000 elite soldiers to Cen Li Port, and Guo Da, who guarded Cen Li Port, led 10,000 troops to meet more than 20 miles and welcomed Zhang Jun into Cen Li Port.

It's night, Guo Daying.

Guo Dasu said to Zhang Jun: "General Jun, please take a seat." ”

"Oh, no!" Zhang Jun shook his hand and said in a deep voice, "Before leaving, Mr. Wenhe repeatedly told him that the general was the main general in the battle of Cen Ligang, and the last general was the auxiliary, so all military affairs of all sizes should be handled by the general, and the last general was only ordered to come to the tent to listen to the tune, so the position of the main general, Jun did not dare to sit in categorically." ”

Guo Dawei was embarrassed: "But the general is the lord's heir, on the intimacy~"

Zhang Jun clasped his fists and said loudly: "Regardless of relatives in the army, only in terms of seniority, General Guo's prestige in the army is far greater than that of Jun, and his ability is even more victorious, the general is not the main general, who can take it?" ”

Guo Da saw that Zhang Jun's expression was sincere, not like a fake, so he smiled and said loudly: "In this way, there will be arrogance in the end." ”

After the ceremony, the two guests sat down, and the rest of the generals were arranged on both sides in turn.

Zhang Jun said in a deep voice: "General Guo, how is the battle in Cen Ligang now?" ”

Guo Dadao: "Kong Rong, Liu Yan, Liu Bei, and others, the main forces of the coalition army, are leading troops to garrison Le'an Port and confront our army. As for Yuan Shao's attack on Leling before, under the stubborn defense of General Zhang He, Leling is as stable as Mount Tai, and now Yuan Shao has gone south to station in Qucheng, and General Bu Ji has led troops to guard Yanggu! ”

After saying this, he said in a deep voice, "As long as we can defend Cen Li Harbor, this coalition army will not want to step into Jizhou!" ”

"The general is not foolish, the coalition army is attacking the west!" Guo Da's voice fell, and suddenly a clear voice sounded in the tent, "I thought that the coalition army's strong attack on Cen Li Gang was false, and it was true to cross the Hebei Le Tomb by detouring!" ”

"Huh?"

Guo Dahuo Ran looked up and saw a slender and elegant young man snorting at him.

"This one~~?"

General Guo looked at Zhang Jun suspiciously, Zhang Jun hurriedly pointed at the young man with his hand, and said to Guo Dao: "General Guo, this Fa Zheng is the son of Wuwei Taishou, because of Mr. Fa Yan's recommendation, it is the late general who brought him to the army for training and more knowledge." ”

"It turned out to be Mr. Fazheng."

Guo Da hurriedly hugged his fists in return, but he didn't dare to underestimate Fa Zheng because he was young, just imagine that Zhang Jun in front of him was only a teenager, but he had already shocked the Central Plains and become a generation of famous generals! And Zhang Jun can have such a reputation, not by relying on Zhang Bao's care, but by relying on this vicious battle.

Fa Zheng returned the salute with his fists and said loudly: "I have seen the general below." ”

Guo Dadao: "Mr. Fang Cai said that the coalition forces attacked Cen Li Gang is false, and it is true to cross the Hebei River to hit the Leling, I don't know what is the basis?" ”

"It's easy!" Fa Zheng said in a deep voice, "Because when I came down, I had already sent scouts to investigate the deployment of the coalition forces, and there were only dozens of ships near Le'an Harbor, and they were all small boats. Imagine how tens of thousands of people in such a coalition want to rely on these dozens of small boats to cross the river? As long as our army deploys a defensive line on the shore, and even if he has thousands of troops and horses, he will not want to cross the river, will this not be sent to death? If it is as expected, Qu Cheng must have gathered hundreds of warships~ Only in this way can the coalition army cross the river in one fell swoop! ”

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

Youzhou, Guotu Mansion in Jixian County.

Guo Tu was burying himself in the first table to sort out the money and grain taxes, and suddenly there was a rapid and heavy footsteps, looking back, a man in black walked in with a dark color, but it was a poisonous snake hidden in Yuan Shu's army, with a luxurious pseudonym, Guo Tu's expression froze, and he suddenly got up and said: "Poisonous snake, why are you so panicked?" ”

The poisonous snake wiped the sweat on his face, and before he had time to salute, he panted and said, "First~ sir, woe to you!" ”

"Don't worry, speak slowly!" Guo Tu arrived at a bowl of water and handed it to the poisonous snake, and said in a deep voice, "Is there something wrong with the Tiger Prison?" ”

The poisonous snake said gloomily: "The Tiger Prison has been fighting for days, and the corpses are almost piled up in the open space in front of the Tiger Prison, which has also caused the plague, and now the coalition forces have suffered heavy losses. Due to his identity, it is inconvenient for the general to contact our army in the Tiger Prison Pass, but when the villain came, the Tiger Prison Pass was silent, and he must have suffered from the plague! ”

"The plague?" Guo Tu was taken aback, the plague was equivalent to a catastrophe at this time, and it was no longer something that could be controlled by manpower, if the soldiers of the Tiger Prison Pass suffered from the plague, Luoyang would be lost! Thinking of this, Guo Tu suddenly got up and said urgently: "You can follow me to see the Holy Maiden!" ”

The poisonous snake followed Guo Tu and hurriedly walked out, suddenly Guo Tu stopped, the poisonous snake didn't have time to stop his feet, and hit Guo Tu headlong, and the bluffed poisonous snake hurriedly said: "Mr. forgive sins, Mr. forgive sins!" ”

Guo Tu waved his hand, an inexplicable color flashed over his cold eyes, and he said in a condensed voice: "Let me ask you, just now you said that the dead bodies are almost piled up in the open space in front of the pass, why is no one cleaning the battlefield?" ”

The ancients did not let the corpses pile up in the open air after the war, but the victorious side went to clean up the battlefield and pick up usable weapons, armor and other things, which was already a convention. As for the enemy soldiers who were seriously wounded but not killed, it is estimated that they will have to make up for it, which is already a convention.

The poisonous snake said in a deep voice: "Mr. Wenhe in the pass seems to have no intention of cleaning the battlefield, and he does not let the coalition forces clean up the battlefield. The villain doesn't know why! ”

"Don't clean the battlefield?" Guo Tu muttered, "What the hell is Wenhe doing? Could it be~"

Guo Tu's face changed, and he said urgently: "Viper, immediately send someone to escort the holy woman to the Tiger Prison Pass, Tu will leave for the Tiger Prison Pass now, remember that this matter must not be told to Madame, understand?" ”

The poisonous snake said in a solemn voice: "The villain understands! ”
