Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The continuous heavy snow, layer after layer, the capital is full of thick snow, and in some unknown corner, there will be beggars who freeze to death.

Early in the morning, the yamen's servants pushed the cart, threw the corpses on the cart, and then sent them to the mass grave outside the city, where they were hastily discarded.

This is an inevitable thing after almost every heavy snowfall. Lao Sun and Lao Wang searched more than a dozen streets and alleys, and found three corpses, all skinny, and a child in his early teens, with a hand outstretched, as if begging for food.

Seeing this, Lao Sun couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, don't give birth to the poor in the next life, no matter how much you want to be a dog for a rich and noble family, it is better than being a person." ”

Lao Wang also smiled and said: "Who says no, yesterday, I passed by Fubele's house, and saw that the swill poured out of their house was floating with a thick layer of red oil, and it was poured into the ditch, and many beggars went to rob it." Don't say it's them, even I look at it! ”

"Hehe, what are you coveting, people are masters, we are all slaves, put on this dress, do you still expect to have a good life, just eat a bite!"

While talking, the two errand officers walked slowly towards the outside of the city, bypassing a few alleys, passing through the entrance of the vegetable market, and not far from the Xuanwu Gate in front.

"Lao Sun, tell me, these four nine cities are big rules, which city gate goes, there are rules, Chongwen Gate takes the wine car, Chaoyang Gate takes the grain car, Desheng Gate takes the military car, Fucheng Gate takes the coal car, to this Xuanwu Gate, the vegetable market, the place of killing, you have to take the funeral car!"

Lao Wang was chattering, and the old grandson on the side suddenly raised his head. Hurriedly grabbed him.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

"What's wrong?"

"What do you see is that?"

Following the direction of Lao Sun's finger, Lao Wang looked over and saw the street. There is a team of hearses, there are hundreds of funerals before and after, with all kinds of banners, there are silent avoidance signs, portraits of the four sages, paper men and paper horses, and everyone is dressed like a ball of snow. The drums are loud. hit the gong, shaking the heavens and the earth.

There is also a paper money sprinkler at the front, and a handful of paper money is getting high. The sky is full of flowers, and the crying is endless.

Looking at this pomp, it must be some dignitary who died, and the old grandson and the others hurriedly hid at the mouth of the alley. I didn't dare to go forward. Secretly raised his head and looked at these people.

"Lao Wang, whose family do you say this is the funeral?"

"It seems that the official can't be small, at least a prince like Baylor."

While he was talking, an old man with baked white potatoes on the side lowered his voice and whispered, "I heard that it is the eldest wife of Forbele, Mrs. Zhengfang." I just moved from Kanwai and died in less than two months. ”

"Huh?" Lao Sun hurriedly lowered his voice: "I remember that there are a lot of people who have died these days. What kind of disease do you have? ”

The old man who baked the white potatoes looked around, and said in a low voice: "Two officials, we have a good relationship, I will tell you the truth, don't spread the word." Two days ago, when I heard the errand officer who bought sweet potatoes chatting, he said that there was smallpox in the capital again, and many people died. ”

"Smallpox?" Lao Wang shook his head: "No, if there is smallpox, it won't kill a lot of people every time, but why haven't you heard that any people have died?" ”

"Hey, that's where smallpox got so bad this time!" The old man said: "I heard that ninety percent of them were dyed by the high-ranking officials of the imperial court. Take Forbel as an example, I heard that I have been infected recently, and I am bedridden, and I don't know if I can survive it! ”

"I heard no, what the hell is going on and when did it start to spread?"

"It's not a secret, that's ten days and half a month!" The old man shook his head and said, "The earliest is the eighth day of the assassination of the prince of Dord!" Some people said that the girl was sent by the pox god to punish the tartars......"

Lao Sun hurriedly waved his hand: "Can you say this kind of thing casually, you want to die!" ”

Several people didn't dare to say anything more, and only after the long funeral procession went out did they pull the body out of the city.

"Hey, hey, that's it, it's all dead, with a coffin, it's not much different from no coffin!"

……

Ji County, Henan.

Gu Zhenhua is discussing the issue of food, the war consumption is too great, and the grain stocks in various parts of An** are only about 1.5 million quintals, which is half consumed.

"Grandpa Guo, Lord Chen just sent a letter, he said that Nanjing seems to have seen through you and his methods, and now even Lord Chen will not come to food, things are really difficult to handle!"

"It's not easy to do, but it has to be done." Gu Zhenhua said loudly: "You can't go without food at any time, fortunately, we have won a big battle, let's go and make some friends with the businessmen, they will be willing to help!" ”

Xia Shouli shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Grandpa Guo, borrowing from a merchant can be an emergency, but we still have to repay the interest, the brothers have worked hard to fight, and they have to send money to the merchant, and I don't know who we are fighting for." ”

Gu Zhenhua also sighed: "Hold on, as long as it comes next year, everything will be better!" ”

While he was talking, there was a sudden rush of footsteps, and Zhou Yingjie ran to the Shuai Mansion with a face full of surprise.

"Grandpa Guo, a great event, a great event!"

"Now there are thousands of sorrows, where does the joy come from?"

"Grandpa Guo, didn't you let the humble go to build a capital view in front of the Tartars and lure the Tartars out?"

Gu Zhenhua nodded: "That's right, what's the matter, can you hear the reality of the Tartar?" ”

"No, the Tartar still can't hold on, it's a shrinking turtle who has eaten the scales and has an iron heart."

Li Jibo on the side frowned and said coldly: "If they don't come out, what kind of happy event is it?" ”

Zhou Yingjie suddenly smiled and said: "Mr. Li, you only know one thing and don't know the other, there is a team that does not accept them at night and secretly transports the corpses outside in the Tartar camp, and then digs a pit and buries it." ”

Li Jibo smiled slightly: "It's not a big deal to die in the barracks, the injured and dead, the military regulations have been violated, in this cold day, maybe there will be ...... frozen to death."

Gu Zhenhua suddenly had a flash of lightning in his head, he stood up suddenly, and hurriedly asked in surprise: "Yes, did you die of smallpox?" ”

At this moment, Zhou Yingjie was also taken aback, and nodded hurriedly: "It is indeed smallpox, the brothers who investigated secretly dug up the grave, and now the Tartars inside are covered with chickenpox, so scared that they all ran back." Grandpa Guo, you are really a god, you can guess this kind of thing! ”

Gu Zhenhua slapped his thigh fiercely and said, "Okay, great, you go and tell those brothers who have come into contact with the corpse first, you must isolate first, reduce contact, and then return to normal after confirming that there is no infection, and our army must not be infected with smallpox." ”

"Yes!"

Zhou Yingjie hurriedly went down to make arrangements. Li Jibo on the side kept staring at Gu Zhenhua's expression, and the old man frowned,

"Mr. Li, do you have anything to do?"

"Tartar dyed smallpox, did you do it?"

Gu Zhenhua spread his hands and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, that infectious disease is God's will, maybe the Tartars don't pay attention to hygiene, and they get sick, what does it have to do with me, besides, even if I have this ability, I would have let all the Tartars die of smallpox a long time ago, do you still have to fight with such trouble?" ”

Regarding the issue of spreading smallpox, this method is too unbelievable, too much of the vision of this era, in addition to Wu Youke, there is also an intelligence system, Gu Zhenhua will not leak it.

However, how shrewd the old man Li Jibo was, he stared at Gu Zhenhua's expression carefully, and said with a sneer: "Don't look at the old man without evidence, anyway, I recognized it, you did it." ”

Li Jibo paused, and then said: "This kind of thing has too much to do with it, killing people is invisible, and I hope that the prince of the country will weigh it well and don't use it indiscriminately." Life in heaven and earth, you must conform to the general trend, you can't put yourself in the position of gods and Buddhas, and act arbitrarily, otherwise you will be retributed! ”

Awe!

Reverence for the people, reverence for the heart of heaven! If you have a little awe for politicians, you won't do anything wrong, Li Jibo is also warning Gu Zhenhua that a big victory, An ** has reached a dizzying height, whether it is a step forward, or a meteor, and it will pass away, it depends on whether he, the family, can grasp it.

The Tartars were infected with smallpox, and when they got the news, all the generals were overjoyed, and it was obvious that the Tartars would cower, probably for this reason.

Li Xu hurriedly found Gu Zhenhua and said anxiously: "Grandpa Guo, if an ordinary soldier gets smallpox and dies, the Tartars shouldn't care, looking at their appearance, I guess some big guy has smallpox, maybe it's Beizi Baylor or something, and maybe even Hauge!" ”

Guo Yunlong also said: "That's right, if that's the case, we should fall into the well, beat the water dog, and teach the Tartar a thorough lesson!" ”

Gu Zhenhua was not carried away, he thought about it again and again, and then said: "True and false, false and real, maybe the Tartars want to put us together." You can't be unguarded, and you can't miss the opportunity, so let's take your squads and harass the Tartars' camp, exhaust them, drag them down, and see if the Tartars have any schemes! ”

……

Hauge lay in the tent, and seemed to be a little less ill than he had been in the first few days, and he was able to walk a few steps with the help of him.

"Lord Wang, the regent has come to his will, he said that Northern Shaanxi has won the war, and he wants to let the king of Yingjun come over and take over your position, so that you can return to Beijing to recuperate with peace of mind!"

"Hey!" Haoge sighed: "The ambition is not rewarded, my father has always wanted to live in the Central Plains before his death, my son should realize his father's ambition, who knows that he was defeated in the war, and he fell into such a disease, it is really a shame to have a conscience!" ”

"Lord Wang, don't say that, when you are in good health, isn't it easy to clean up Gu Zhenhua?"

"No, no, Gu Zhenhua, this guy is showing up too fast, he has to kill him as much as possible, I, I want to write a letter to Azig!"

Hauge struggled to make his way to his desk.

At this moment, there was a sudden loud bang, and a series of explosions sounded in the Qing army camp, and the flames soared into the sky. When Hauge heard this, he was suddenly so frightened that his head was sweating, his face was turmeric, and he fell to the ground. (To be continued......)
