Chapter Ninety-One: The Plague of the Dead
Xuanyuan Yi sneered, and at this time, the generals rushed outside the tent and rushed in.
Mu Bingyue had no choice but to step aside.
After several generals entered the tent, they turned a blind eye to Mu Bingyue who was standing on the side, and after saluting together, one of the generals couldn't bear to open his mouth first, "Your Majesty, our tens of thousands of troops have been in the desert for many days, and the army grass and food are very expensive. ”
The implication is that the 300,000 Red Flame army can no longer be left, and it must be uprooted as soon as possible, otherwise it will waste a large amount of military food for its own army.
Sima Han followed up after the general said: "Your Majesty, after the minister heard that the Emperor Yi had recovered the lost territory, he opened the treasury and built a large number of buildings and fortifications on the territory. ”
Mu Bingyue's heart sank, the number of 300,000 troops was indeed too large, there were only a few times in history where such a situation occurred, most of them were killed, and the only one left as a prisoner of war was also very bad.
This...... A cloud of sorrow rose on her brow.
"Your Majesty, although Nangong Chen's prestige in the army is not high, but his Hui Zheng is very capable of winning people's hearts, and he listened to Lord Sima say that this time the Yan Army was surrounded and did not surrender, and several organized breakthroughs were made, wanting to break the exit and send Nangong Chen out of trouble, and he was worried that even if he could surrender, he was afraid that he would not be able to use it." A general stepped forward.
"The humble proposal is to bury the Red Flame army on the spot." One of the generals suggested.
Mu Bingyue was originally worried about her heart, but when she heard someone raise it, her heart was suddenly hit hard.
"Humble reconsideration."
"Reconsideration."
......
The generals reconsidered, and her face became paler and paler.
When all the voices fell, Xuanyuan Yi still did not say anything, and Sima Han's eyes flashed slightly.
Da ......
Xuanyuan Yi put down the wine glass, and the atmosphere in the tent fell silent for a moment.
He looked sideways at her with an undetectable look in his eyes, "What do you say?" ”
The faces of the generals sank, and Du Sima Han stood still, as if he hadn't heard.
Mu Bingyue turned her eyes to look at him, "If they are willing to surrender, what will you do?" ”
Sima Han's eyes flashed, and he fixed his eyes on her for the first time.
He knew the true identity of this woman, and the black water that had invaded the skyspace of the sky, caused her to fall into fire chaos and broke through the defense line of Heiyi several times, and disrupted his position, he also felt that it was from the mysterious Mujiazhuang, but no matter what he said, the emperor was unwilling to give him time to investigate, or that he did not want him to find Chiyan before she was defeated, and rely on her strength to win Chiyan. One to three years, no, to be precise, after the first beauty was included in the harem and the concubine gave birth to a child, the emperor began to act frequently.
Now that I think about it, I am afraid that the first beauty is pregnant, but it is also intentional by the emperor, in order to reduce the queen mother's defense against it.
Thinking of this, his gaze couldn't help but sink.
Now that there is such a major military situation, he really wants to know her attitude the most, although he will not really listen to her opinion, but this has shown that he cares about her extraordinarily, which is definitely beyond the love of men and women, because Xuanyuan Yi, as a generation of emperors, has already regarded Mu Bingyue on the same status as him.
Mu Bingyue's actions behind the scenes of the Red Flame Country as the owner of Mujiazhuang did make him change his opinion of women, but he didn't think she had the ability to make the 300,000 army surrender.
After all, it is a matter of family and country, and no general will be willing to be a prisoner and beg to surrender to the enemy country.
Mo said that Sima Han didn't believe it, even Xuanyuan Yi didn't believe it, he laughed wildly, "The death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the tent changed color.
Not to mention that this matter still needs to be discussed with Heiyi, what the emperor said is so conclusive, not only to leave a way for the 300,000 army to live, but also to leave a great hidden danger for himself, but also to leave Heiyi a chance to blackmail.
It is really worth the loss to mobilize the people in such a way and to work hard to break the wealth!
Some people looked at Mu Bingyue's color, and they became unkind at the moment.
It is said that the face is ruined, and it seems that this woman is really misleading the country.
However, Mu Bingyue's heart did not let go, even if Xuanyuan Yi expressed her willingness to let them go, she didn't know if Nangong Chen would be willing to send someone under the fence and be controlled by others in order to survive.
In ancient times, the emperors who were pulled off their horses, even if they were lucky enough to survive, they were inevitably imprisoned and depressed for life.
Chiyan's fortune is difficult, Nangong Chen has been coerced by many parties since he succeeded to the throne at a young age, he has a desire for freedom, she doesn't know it, she is humiliated in order to survive, she is only afraid of him...... It may not be subservient.
The world is changing, and she really doesn't know what will happen in the future, but at this moment, 300,000 lives are in danger.
Heiyi and Xuanyuan joined forces, and the Yan Army, which had been trapped for a long time, even if they could get Zheng Hao's assistance in time at this moment, they were afraid that both sides would only suffer heavy casualties in the end, and blood would flow like a river.
However, at this moment, she can only take one step at a time.
Although the generals were dissatisfied, no one raised an objection, because they knew that if Xuanyuan Yi decided something, no one would want to change.
An example of this is the dispatch of troops to the Red Army.
His gaze moved away from Mu Bingyue's face, and Xuanyuan Yi fainted, "Escort Nangong Chen first." ”
Sima Han knew that this was meant for him, and the emperor did not mention how to negotiate with Heiyi, nor did he mention how to deal with the 300,000 troops, obviously because he wanted to see Nangong Chen first and see his attitude before making a decision.
The reason why he didn't ask deeply, he just knew that what Xuanyuan Yi wanted now was to completely remove the aura on Nangong Chen's body, of course, it was for her.
She was still dressed in the army for the sake of the finished thing, and the others had not yet returned to the camp but on the way to the end of the journey, many post soldiers were talking about it, not to mention the fact that the Flame Emperor had not touched this woman for three years, that is, the reaction of their emperor after learning that she was still a virgin, which really puzzled him.
However, this incident will help to hit the morale of Chiyan, and it will also give Nangong Rui, who is worried, a reassurance, so that he can completely let go of his heart and indulge in pleasure, why wouldn't he do it?
However, if Mu Bingyue's true identity was revealed, he was only afraid that the new emperor of the Flame Country would vomit three liters of blood.
Mujiazhuang's wealth is comparable to that of the country, if the wealth and grain are piled up, it is worth more than the half-pot city he is defending, as long as Nangong Rui, who does not want the beauty, knows it, how can he not regret it, after all, it is Xuanyuan who he gave away, at least in the more than a month dedicated to Nangong Yu, it is good to be able to knock some corners from her hands!
Even if he gets a few boatloads of grain, he can solve the dilemma in front of him! Of course, this can only be said later.
What Sima Han thought in his heart at this time was that if those Red Flame people who spontaneously organized a counterattack knew that the emperor they desperately wanted to protect had 'imprisoned' the owner of Mujiazhuang they respected the most for three years, I don't know how they would feel at that time?!
He never knew why the emperor would keep her true identity a secret, and now it seems that he still underestimated her weight in his heart.
If Nangong Chen knew that the mysterious owner he had been secretly looking for and admired was a woman who had been lying on his pillow for three years, and this woman would rather trade with his grandmother than be his woman, I don't know what kind of mood would it be to be in the game?
In the face of love, family affection, and the betrayal of the subjects, I am afraid that the spirit of a strong person will collapse layer by layer.
Their emperor wanted to defeat her in front of her!
Shaking his head secretly, he took the order and left.
As soon as Sima Han left, the generals did not dare to stay in the tent for a long time, and they all withdrew after the discussion.
Silence fell back in the tent.
Mu Bingyue didn't sort out her chaotic thoughts, and walked silently alone.
Xuanyuan Yi's move made her puzzled, I don't know why he didn't borrow her identity as the owner of Mujiazhuang, although the Yan Army is in a difficult situation, it is not easy to 'detain' Nangong Chen here.
No matter how incomprehensible Mu Bingyue is, the world is always impermanent.
Soon after Sima Han set off, he encountered an urgent signal soldier galloping from the desert, and the battle situation changed, and several flame soldiers who surrendered to the Yan army were infected with the plague, and even the Xuanyuan garrison was also infected.
When Sima Han heard this, he didn't care about the emperor's order, so he rushed back with the messengers.
The epidemic is like a tiger, and the country is in danger!
Xuanyuan Yi hadn't gone to bed yet, and as soon as he saw Sima Han going and returning, he knew that something was wrong, and immediately hurried to the big tent to discuss the matter.
Before Xuanyuan Yi left, he did not forget to order someone to watch Mu Bingyue, and the woman who was ordered to take care of Mu Bingyue was the woman in white who had stopped Sikong Ling.
Sima Han turned back regardless of the emperor's order, and his face was anxious, and there were very few people who could move him, and Mu Bingyue couldn't help but lift his heart.
At this time, only the war situation in the desert can let him go and return, could it be that the three sides are fighting again?
Thinking of this, she couldn't stand any longer, "I'll go and take a look outside." "Although she can't get into the military tent, if he sends troops, she can always find out what happened.
Ye Ling pondered for a moment, but did not stop it.
In the military tent, the messenger said quickly: "...... There were a large number of sick people in the Yan Army, General Sui first thought that the Yan Army had been cut off from water and food for many days and finally began to run out, so he sent spies to investigate, but who knew that the Yan Army was secretly burying the dead bodies, and the spies who went to visit the letter felt that something was wrong, and after a detailed investigation, they found out that the Yan Army buried the corpses in a number of ancient caves, in which the bones were stacked on top of each other, and they had been buried many days ago. Who knew that those soldiers who had surrendered seemed to be infected with the wind and cold, and General Sui felt that something was wrong, and the military doctor was passed on at the moment, but who knew that they were diagnosed with cloud plague......"
Cloud plague is related to diseases such as season, temperature, and heat, and the solar terms are not harmonious, the cold and heat are obedient, or there are storms and rains, and the fog and dew do not disperse, then the people have many diseases. There is no longevity or deficiency of the disease, and the rates are all similar, such as the spirit of ghosts.
This disease is due to the disharmony of the years, the warmth and coldness, and the people feel the perverse atmosphere and get sick, and the sickness is easy to infect, and even extinction, extending to outsiders, because it will cause a large-scale death frenzy and is called the plague of the dead by the world.
