Yun Zichen was really troubled, he thought of many ways for Zhu Di to break the siege, maybe use a hot air balloon to go out to report the news, and let the rest of the vassal kings rescue him, and also thought that Zhu Di would do a dying struggle and send strange soldiers to assassinate him, and also thought that Zhu Di would dig a tunnel to escape, but he didn't think that the problem would be with him.

It's dog days now, the weather is hot, the air in the barracks is blocked, once there is an epidemic, it will spread quickly, and now the people who die every day because of the disease have exceeded the people who died in the siege.

So now Yun Zichen's biggest enemy is the plague, not Zhu Di, if he can't quickly control the epidemic, and Zhu Di doesn't need to go out of the city to fight back, his army will be dead and wounded.

He has already asked Zhu Yuanzhang for instructions, in this state, the military doctors in his army are helpless, and he only hopes that Zhu Yunwen can send a clever doctor over.

Yun Zichen's army had a plague, and Beiping City, which was separated by a wall, naturally appeared.

"Your Highness, the epidemic in the army is probably under control, but it hasn't rained for a few days now, and the wells in the city are about to dry up, if Yun Zichen's army doesn't retreat by then, I'm afraid there will be a water panic in the city." In the palace of King Yan, the monk Daoyan reported this to Zhu Di.

"The order goes down, from today onwards, let all the people save water, the water used to wash the rice is used to wash clothes, and the water used to wash clothes is used to clean the streets, and then it can be released." Zhu Di said with a frown.

Since Yun Zichen besieged Beiping a few months ago, the whole Beiping has become an isolated city, everything has to be self-sufficient, food is not worried, even if you can't get supplies from Tongxian, the people's families have enough food for a year, this is the continuation of the past few years.

The most urgent thing now is water, because now that the epidemic has occurred, under Sun Hang's construction, all the streets and military camps in the city must be cleaned every day. The epidemic can't be allowed to spread, otherwise Beiping will become a dead city, and without Yun Zichen's action, Zhu Di's army will all die.

So now Zhu Di has to let the people redistribute the water source, Yun Zichen has cut off the canal from the Guanting Dam and the Miyun Dam, making Beiping truly a lonely city, and all the water sources are based on the deep wells dug in response to the drought a few years ago.

But it was a well after all, and it couldn't have as much water as there was in the river.

"Your Highness, I have never encountered such a large-scale plague, and I don't know if the method given to me by the teacher will work." Sun Hang was a little apprehensive. Because the plague came too suddenly, when he was in the academy, he only learned some surgical knowledge from Lou Ying and them, and for the plague, he only heard some of Hu Ye's methods of treating the plague from Lou Ying and Xiao Jiuxian.

"Now there are only dead horses as live horse doctors, and Langzhong in the city is helpless against the plague at all, at least your method has slowed down the spread of the plague." Zhu Di muttered, because Sun Hang also built yì He gathered a group of soldiers who were initially infected, according to the severity of the disease. They were divided into many barracks, and then they were given medicine according to the trick, and although all the soldiers were not cured, the plague did not spread.

"Your Highness. Recently, Yun Zichen's offensive has become weaker and weaker, and it seems that their epidemic must be even stricter than ours, and I think it won't be long before his army will be dead and wounded. The siege of Beiping was solved. Liu Sheng said with a hint of excitement.

"Your Highness, there are a lot of medicinal herbs in Beiping, which can not only heal His Highness's soldiers. It can also heal the soldiers of the imperial court, and I will send medicine to the outside of the city, and how much can I save. Sun Hang said loudly.

"Boy! Look for death! When Liu Sheng heard Sun Hang's words, he stepped forward and stared at Sun Hang, now that the number of Yun Zichen's army is decreasing, it is an opportunity for Beiping, if you send medicine to Yun Zichen's army now, wouldn't it be self-defeating? When they recover, don't they have to attack Beiping?

"General Liu, when we left the academy, the dean told us that whether it is the people of King Yan or the emperor, I will be saved, because they are all the people of the Ming Dynasty. Now the death of soldiers is not because of war, so when I have the ability to save, I must save! Sun Hang retorted loudly.

"Do you know that after rescuing them, they will have to attack Beiping again? What if the city of Beiping is broken by then? Do you pay with your life? Liu Sheng yelled.

"They're not besieging the city now, they're just seriously ill!" Sun Hang replied without showing weakness.

Everyone in the hall watched the quarrel between the two, and they couldn't help anyone, because the two of them made sense, Liu Sheng was the one who defended the city, and Sun Hang was just a student who knew a little medical skills, and his duty was to save the life and help the wounded, whether it was right or wrong.

Obviously, only Zhu Di can call the shots at this time, so everyone's eyes are on Zhu Di, waiting for Zhu Di to make a final decision.

It is also difficult for Zhu Di now, according to him before, to kill all the soldiers outside your city, so that he will have a chance to breathe.

But he has been changed too much by Hu Ye in the past few years, and since he let go of Saren's group back then, Hu Ye's influence on him has not disappeared.

However, he also knew the consequences of sending the medicine out, if Yun Zichen's team had a chance to breathe, and when they recovered, maybe they would launch a new round of attack on Beiping, and it would be a question of whether they could defend it or not, because in the past few months, his army had also dropped by several thousand, and now the city wall was guarded by one or two hundred soldiers with a group of people.

"This is war! It's not a playhouse! Your dean sent you to me so that you could help me win the war! So I can't do anything that is in the way of me winning the war! Zhu Di finally made up his mind, he didn't allow the slightest mistake! He has lost so much that if he makes another mistake, there will be no hope of turning around.

"Nope! The dean asked me to come here to cure the sick and save people, and now I have the ability to save people! You can't just watch them die! ”

Sun Hang roared.

"Zhu Di! Didn't you promise me before, you just wanted to sweep away the traitors around the emperor! Why do you see so many people getting sick and dying? So what's the difference between you and the traitor! Lu Xun also stood up and said loudly to Zhu Di.

"Bold!"

Zheng Er yelled at Lu Xun, but was called down by Zhu Di.

"If I save them, they will continue to attack the city, and then I will never have the opportunity to go to Nanjing to kill the traitors? Do you say that I have broken my promise to you by doing this? Zhu Di asked Lu Xun rhetorically.

"You..." Lu Xun was speechless by Zhu Di's question, and he couldn't find the words to refute.

"Father, I have a slap, I don't know if it's feasible." Zhu Gaochi stood up and said at this time.

"Tell me about it." Zhu Di said.

"Father, now the number of infected people in the army outside has tens of thousands, if you don't treat it quickly, I'm afraid the plague will spread, and then not only Beiping, I'm afraid that the surrounding Tongxian, Miyun and other places will be affected, so we can't let the epidemic spread." Zhu Gaochi said.

The rest of the people also nodded when they heard this, knowing that what Zhu Gaochi said had some truth, if it really happened, even if Yun Zichen was defeated and retreated in the end, they would be left with a dilapidated Beiping.

"But if we send out the medicinal materials and cure those soldiers, they will become Yun Zichen's new force, and it is very likely that they will break through Beiping, which must not happen." Zhu Gaochi said loudly, this can be regarded as summarizing the opinions of Sun Hang and Liu Sheng, and everyone knows that the next thing is the focus of Zhu Gaochi's speech.

"So if you want to save those soldiers, you can't let them continue to attack Beiping, then there is only one way."

"What's the solution?" Everyone asked curiously.

"Bring those soldiers who have the plague to the city of Beiping!" Zhu Gaochi said loudly.

"Never!" The generals were divided into opposition, not to mention that the enemy might send undercover agents in, but so many soldiers infected with the plague were a test for Beiping.

"In order to save their soldiers, we can ask Yun Zichen to open two water canals, so that our water source problem will be solved, and those soldiers can be saved." Zhu Gaochi said.

"Even so, if those soldiers are saved, don't they still have to attack Beiping?" Liu Sheng asked.

"Lord Liu, those soldiers are waiting to die outside, we saved them, do you think they will attack us? And we are now short of troops, so we can replenish our troops. ”

As soon as these words came out, all his generals smelled the benefits.

"Then Yun Zichen will send those soldiers in? And what if they want to go back then? ”

"Now Yun Zichen can't wait to send those soldiers away, because he has no way to deal with the plague, and keeping those soldiers is the biggest threat to him, even greater than our Beiping. So we proposed to take those soldiers into Beiping, and Yun Zichen would definitely agree, and even he would send some undercover agents inside. Zhu Gaochi said.

"In that case, we can't let them in."

Just as everyone was about to continue to refute, Zhu Di waved his hand to stop them, and then asked Sun Hang, "If you take all the sick soldiers into Beiping, are you sure that you will cure them?" ”

"It is definitely impossible to cure all of them, but those who are relatively mild, as long as there are enough medicinal materials, they will definitely be cured." Sun Hang replied in the affirmative.

"That's enough." Zhu Di slapped the table, and then said loudly, "Si Dao, you go to negotiate with Yun Zichen, just say that we can take their sick soldiers into Beiping for treatment, and after they are cured, they will not restrict their freedom, as long as he opens the Guanting Dam and Miyun Dam to enter the canal in Beiping." Zhu Di said to Monk Daoyan.

"Yes, my subordinates obey."

"Wen Bi, you go and let the military camp vacate a few large barracks, if they come in, you must leave them all behind, they are the capital of our counteroffensive!" Zhu Di admired Zhu Gaochi's idea, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone, not only solving the current water source problem in Beiping, but also finding the capital for the counterattack, but the premise is that Yun Zichen agrees to this matter.
