Chapter 560: Plague Eight

Mo Dengyong's face was very ugly.

It's not been a day or two like this.

A battle in the rain is a lose-lose situation.

Mo Dengyong originally thought it was a rout, but he didn't expect the fight to be scorching. Of course, he thought that Yongjun was not useless outside of firearms. But I never thought that the Yongjun army would be so strong in battle. In the face of the natives, they panicked but did not panic. was defeating the Haiyang army head-on in the rain, which made Mo Dengyong unbelievable.

What made him feel even more uncomfortable was the heavy rainstorm behind.

Such a pouring rain, even in Annam, has no chance to rain in a year, it doesn't look like it's raining at all, as if the sky is leaking. It was supposed to be a few miles of road, and the march was only a short time on weekdays, but it took nearly an hour to walk in the heavy rain.

Everyone didn't know how many times the rain had washed it, and when they came back and took off their clothes, everyone's skin was that bloodless white, as if it were the skin of a dead man. There was no need to wait for the next day for the damage to erupt in the camp.

Mo Dengyong immediately knew that something big was wrong. Focus all your energy on curing the disease.

I have to say that the medical level of the people in Annan is still a lot worse than that of Daming. Mo Dengyong does not attach as much importance to doctors as Zhu Houhuang, and regards doctors as key training objects, so there are only more than 100 doctors he found temporarily, not to mention compared with Doctor Xue, even compared with Doctor Wen, they can't compare. The typhoid fever in the camp could no longer be hidden.

Mo Dengyong gritted his teeth and did two things, he withdrew all the two camps outside the city, and the Mo army lived in Ningping City. And drive all the sick and wounded out of the city and leave them to fend for themselves. In fact, it was Mo Dengyong who said to the people below, so that he would not let these patients have the opportunity to escape to the other side and leak secrets, and as soon as they left the city, they were killed one after another.

There is one one, as long as there are symptoms such as typhoid fever and malaria, all of them are dead or alive.

Don't feel that Mo Dengyong is ruthless, in this case, it is a bit cruel to deal with it resolutely, but it is also a way, but this method is just a little too cruel. However, mercy is not in charge of the army, righteousness is not in charge of wealth. Sometimes those who lead troops must be ruthless. However, it turned out that Mo Dengyong's heart was not ruthless enough, and he buried hidden dangers for the future.

Ninh Binh is a small city with a small number of people. Hell, if the number of people in Ninh Binh, who has been in war for decades in Annam, can be regarded as more.

However, even if there is a gap in the number of people in Ningping, the remaining gap cannot fit tens of thousands of troops. Mo Dengyong is naturally the same as Zhu Houhuang, and the army is their own capital. The importance attached to the army can be said to be consistent. Therefore, in the case of a shortage of housing, Mo Dengyong naturally chose to let the people vacate their houses and let the soldiers live in.

Such an action, even if Zhu Houhuang's Yongjun came to do it, it might not be able to do it without committing any crimes. Not to mention Mo Dengyong's subordinates, this operation soon turned into a reasonable and legal plunder, except for a few large households in the city, the rest of the people were all driven out of the houses.

On the one hand, Mo Dengyong controls his subordinates and does not go too far. On the other hand, there is to appease the people, so that the remaining few large families will take over these people.

It's just that the virtues of these big families can help the common people for no reason? Of course, there are a few kind-hearted ones, but it's also a drop in the bucket. Huge numbers of people were stranded in every corner, using rudimentary things to block the rain, and they were struggling to survive. In order to prevent Mo Dengyong's subordinates from knowing, they also concealed such things in every possible way, and made all the places where Mo Dengyong often inspected clean. And in the corner of Ningping City, where dogs don't drill, it is densely packed with small houses like people's kennels.

The city was already overcrowded, and it was like this, not to mention that there was a plague in the first place, even if there was no plague, such a situation could make a plague.

Sure enough, the plague broke out.

First of all, a large number of people could not support it. However, at this time, it did not attract Mo Dengyong's attention, because these people were in the blind spot of Mo Dengyong's sight. And the officers who can find out about these things don't care at all, this is not a matter of their duties, even if those who have a heart report it, they will sink into the sea. No one dared to open this piece of window paper in front of Mo Dengyong.

Soon, however, these diseases spread from the people to the army.

Zhu Houhuang integrated the requirements for epidemic prevention into Yongjun's training, although Yongjun did not dare to say that the quilts were stacked with tofu blocks, but most places had cleaning requirements. The Mo army has no concept of this at all, and the Mo army is also in a firewood crisis. So much so that some low-level soldiers began to drink raw water, which further aggravated the spread of the epidemic.

When the following did not dare to hide it and couldn't hide it, Mo Dengyong had already discovered that Ningping City could no longer be defended.

The plague has replaced the Yongjun army and completely destroyed the combat effectiveness of the Mo army. So Mo Dengyong has to face one thing, whether to stick to it here.

At this moment, Mo Dengyong is desperately suppressing the plague, his way to prevent the epidemic is not a doctor, but a knife, all people with fever symptoms are isolated, and any secret - execution is buried on the spot outside the city. On the other hand, he also received news of the plague in the Yongjun and Zheng Junjun.

Mo Dengyong planted a lot of nails in the Qinghua army, and all the news of the epidemic in the Qinghua army reached his ears. He felt that the other party was facing the same problem as himself, maybe the person who couldn't hold it first was the other party, so he decided to grit his teeth and hold on, Ning Ping is too important, it is the gateway to Qinghua, with Ning Ping in hand, Mo Dengyong can directly attack Qinghua City if he goes south at any time. If Ningping is lost to the Thanh Hoa army, Thanh Hoa will be completely consolidated, with Thanh Hoa in the back, and the front can be maintained in Ninh Binh, Thanh Hoa will have the basis for secession.

Then he decided to hold on and continue to hold on. Let's see who can't hold on. Mo Jun and Yong Jun, who wanted to be there, were almost paralyzed patients on both sides looking at each other to see who could scare whom.

However, at this time, a piece of news spread from the rear, breaking all the illusions of Mo Dengyong. That was the defeat of Haiphong City.

In order to deal with Haiphong City, Mo Dengyong left tens of thousands of troops to surround Haiphong City to death. However, the waterways did not take much precautions. It's not that I don't want to, but I can't. Almost outside the city of Haiphong, the Mo army once again built a wall and blocked all the passages except for the water gate.

This isn't the first bad news Mordenyong has heard.

Since Zhu Houhuang sent the Yongjun sailors to harass along the coast of Annan, it attracted Mo Dengyong's attention. Liu Laodao returned to his old business, first sinking almost all the ships that could go to sea in Annan, and injuring some Guangdong maritime merchants by mistake. But Liu Laodao didn't care at all. He even felt that he had taught Guangdong a lesson.

Zhu Houhuang has always wanted to be outside the Ming Dynasty. Let Dongyong be his country, not the feudal country of King Yong of the Ming Dynasty, he doesn't think he has done it, but now the Guangdong side of the matter of refusing Zhu Houhuang to land on the shore seems to have made some radicals in Dongyong come out, and they all want to fight back to the Ming Dynasty and let His Royal Highness King Yongwang ascend the throne as the emperor.

However, these bad news are nothing to Mo Dengyong. Although Annan has a long coastline, in essence, Annan is still an agricultural country, not a maritime civilization, so Mo Dengyong doesn't care too much about the merchant ships that go out to the sea. Mo Dengyong was not distressed at all.

However, Liu Laodao found that he couldn't hurt Annan, so he immediately decided to give Annan a big one, so that he could have a good look at the strength of the Dongyong Water Division, and he searched and searched on the map and finally determined that this battle was set in Haiphong. Why is it in Haiphong, it is because Haiphong has an army.

Liu Laodao had already discovered that although the force value of the people on the ship who specialized in jumping gang fighting was good, but when it really started, it was still those army forces who fought in formation, and he wanted to provide firearms as soon as possible, and the army would improve its manpower, and the two sides would combine to give each other a ruthless one.

Liu Laodao and the people in Haiphong almost hit it off. They immediately began to prepare for a big war. A large number of gunners with artillery entered the coastal defenses.
