With General Wang's approval, the house was quickly demolished, the sun shone in from the outside, and they shivered in the cold wind.

Zhongli said again: "Rumo, you go to find someone to quickly build a few more tents nearby, which is what we tried to do in the yard before, but the requirements must be dry, lime and charcoal or something, they will be able to send it over in a while, remember, you must clean the floor." ”

Rumo hurriedly retreated, fortunately, it is not too far from Zhuangzi here, and if you go back, you can come and go in three or two days. Moreover, tents were already prepared in the house, which were used for those who went out to buy stones, and now they are ready-made.

At this time, Zhongli ordered the group of people he had brought but had been guarding outside, and let them be stationed in a seat not too far from the upwind of the barracks, and then let them start to go to the city to buy a large amount of charcoal, cotton clothes, bedding, and wooden barrels for bathing. Fortunately, she brought enough money, and everyone quickly left here.

Zhongli breathed a sigh of relief, and began to instruct people to shovel snow, and then began to boil water: "Don't worry, although it's a little cold, but it's very difficult for bacteria to spread at this time." Rest assured, it's not that far from town, and they'll be back in a moment. ”

Some of the people who were suspicious of Zhongli before still had suspicious eyes at this time, but at this time, the doctor brought by Zhongli was powerful, commanding several people to move all the seriously ill people to the general's camp and let the general come out by himself.

When they landed, everyone looked at Zhongli's eyes a little weird, who were their generals? Who dares to say a word, isn't that plucking the feathers of a tiger?

Zhongli couldn't help but have a little headache, now the main thing is that the materials are not enough!

And the transportation is not convenient, just to see yourself rushing from home to here, it took a day to see.

"Zhong Gongzi, how much do you have a calculation about the current situation?" General Wang coughed twice and looked at Zhongli.

Zhongli frowned and looked at General Wang's appearance, and couldn't help but have a headache.

This man is really ...... Does this mean that he loves soldiers like sons? Or praise him for not being in the line of fire with minor injuries?

Didn't he think about it, if something happened to him, the entire military camp probably wouldn't be able to escape?

"It's hard for me to say how many percent it is now, but my brother is here, and I will never let him go. It's just that there are too many people in the barracks now. Although the general has put the entire barracks under martial law. But has the prefectural prefect been notified? Even if we're confined ourselves now, you know, once this kind of thing spreads......"

Zhongli didn't say any more, but General Wang's face was already white, and he nodded with a wry smile on his trembling lips.

"I've said it, I've said it all, and even above, I've already said it. It's just ......" he closed his eyes suddenly, "it's just that I'm worried that if something happens, these ...... behind me will be behind me" He turned his head to look at the soldiers who were now trembling, his eyes full of bitterness.

Plague, I have heard but I have not seen it, I heard that when the Apocalypse was first established, it came once, and it was menacing, and hundreds of thousands of people were all gone.

General Wang's considerations, of course, Zhongli was clear.

He was worried that if he was not careful, the upper authorities would directly issue a kill order, and even if all these soldiers were killed, the epidemic would not be able to spread again.

"What's more, the county order is now powerless. In the past, we helped rescue the people trapped by the snowy mountains, but now, we don't dare to go out at all, otherwise even if we rescue people, it will hurt others, so it is better to let them go cleanly. It's just these soldiers behind me, I'm sorry for them! ”

It is said that men don't flick when they have tears, but they just haven't reached the sad place.

General Wang's tall and muscular man's eyes were chaotic at this time, his bloodshot eyes were flashing with crystal tears, and his words were full of hidden pain and lamentation.

Behind him, there was a sudden sound of uniform armor rubbing against the ground, Zhongli couldn't help but turn his head, and saw the group of people who had just moved and shrunk down, still with pale cheeks and trembling lips, kneeling down on one knee towards them.

"Subordinate, life is not afraid of death."

The voice is high-pitched and resounding in the sky.

Even the people who were still in the hospital bed just now were helped out of bed with a slight tremble, and knelt down towards General Wang at the same time.

Zhongli was stunned in place, she is a person who came here from modern society, she was born under the red flag, grew up in New China, even if there are charity activities every year, but she has never come into contact with these flesh-and-blood, loyal and courageous people, at this time, her heart was shocked.

General Wang covered his eyes with pain, and the tears welling up in his eyes could not help falling any longer.

"Born as a soldier, he is a shroud. Unwilling, I'm unwilling! ”

He roared violently into the sky, and many soldiers behind him also roared, and the sound seemed to be able to reverberate through the universe.

Zhongli waited for him to come back to his senses, only to realize that he had already burst into tears, he sniffed and tried to smile at everyone, laughing again, but after all, he couldn't resist the sadness stirring in his heart.

Originally, it was just for Zhong Liyue, and these soldiers were just piggybacking, but now, ......

He reached out and clenched his fist, pounding his chest hard, waiting until the pain had dissipated a little before he heard her speak loudly.

"My life is up to me! Even if Zhongli goes bankrupt, he will definitely fight to the end for this matter. So, soldiers, exchange your swords, guns, swords, and halberds for axes, and we are now, go and chop wood, immediately, immediately! ”

He originally wanted to wait for the people he arranged to come over, but now, if he delays his efforts for a while, he may lose a good man.

It's just that the eyes of the generals looked at General Wang, waiting for him to speak, "Okay, listen to the order, now go up the mountain, according to what Zhong Gongzi said, chop wood." ”

And the cook and doctor, who had been quietly watching this scene, also wiped the cold tears on their faces at this time, and said with hatred.

"Straight lady thief, I also fight! Come on, brush the pot, and I will make medicine porridge for the soldiers to drink. ”

Before coming, Zhongli specially trained him, and there were not many medicinal materials sent, some of which were used by doctors, and some of which could be put in porridge to improve the immunity of ordinary soldiers, anyway, he didn't understand, but he wouldn't get sick if he ate it.

And the doctor also sniffed hard, took off the mask, and asked people to come over with paper and pen, they need more doctors to come, more than a dozen people have died in the barracks, and these few of them are simply not enough!

Things are in full swing.

And the court that received the news has already exploded.

"O plague! That's the plague! Your Majesty, will you quickly order the closure of the city? Now this is menacing, if it spreads, the consequences will be unimaginable! ”

"Yes! Your Majesty, do you remember the plague recorded in the history books? Hundreds of thousands! Anyway, this time it was discovered first in the barracks, and there is discipline. Although it is only tens of thousands, it is better than the expansion of the epidemic! ”

……

Someone went to the book to close the city, and naturally someone came out to stop it.

"Your Majesty, you can't seal it! Now that the year is at the end of the year, what if there is a civil unrest? Now that it has snowed heavily, and there is another plague, it may not be appropriate if there is a lockdown now. ”

The minister seconded. Your Majesty, I think this matter must be considered in the long run. And maybe what the situation is there, why don't you let the imperial doctor go over a few first? It can also show the emperor's grace. It's good if you can control the situation, but if you can't......"

"The minister seconded the proposal."

……

"You know it's the end of the year? If the epidemic expands, this year will not pass? It is only necessary for the emperor to send a document to the state capitals below to warn the people, and the people will be moved by His Majesty's love for his ministers. ”

"Hmph, that's nonsense. If this kind of thing happens, will you still wait for the epidemic to spread if you don't lock down the city? Do you know how many people will be killed and injured after the epidemic spreads? Your Majesty, I beg your Majesty to seal the city! ”

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

……

The ministers of the two factions took clear positions and began to argue in the main hall.

The emperor couldn't help frowning, looking at the hectic appearance below, he couldn't help frowning, gently tugging at the corners of his lips, and a touch of sarcasm quickly crossed his eyes.

After all, it's not for your own benefit?

He coughed suddenly, and the sound of the quarrel below disappeared.

The old emperor's cloudy eyes glanced at the crown prince sitting on his lower right, and he couldn't help but smile and spoke briskly.

"Prince, tell me your opinion? Should this city be sealed or not? ”

The crown prince couldn't help frowning, he glanced at the emperor with some caution, but he couldn't help but purse his lips, got up and shook his head, and arched his hand towards the emperor.

"It's all up to my father."

A flash of disappointment crossed the Emperor's eyes.

But he reached out to hold the eunuch's hand, and slowly got up and looked at the civil and military officials.

"I want to appoint a minister to take the imperial doctor to go there, I don't know if you Aiqing, who is willing to recommend yourself?"

Above the entire court, there was no sound at all.

However, a little-known little squire who had been in the Li Department stood up from behind, lowered his head, lifted the hem of his clothes, knelt directly on the cold ground, and spoke loudly.

"Minister, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites is willing to go!"

Compensation?

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and finally put your eyes on this person who usually ignores at all.

The emperor also frowned, who is this person? He couldn't help but put his eyes on the personal eunuch next to him.

The other party immediately heard the sound of the strings and knew what it meant, and smiled quickly.

"Your Majesty, this Chen Hui has been a scholar for ten years, and His Majesty let him go to the Ministry of Rites."

The emperor raised his eyebrows, but he was curious about this Chen Yuan.

In this Ministry of Rites, there can be more than one waiter under Shangshu, and Jinshi and the first, just entering the Ministry of Rites, must have three years of seniority before he can be promoted from Shangshulang to Shilang, but this person is still a waiter after ten years, this is too stupid not to drill the camp? Or is it too incompetent to look down on the officials?

With a twist of thought, the emperor smiled and announced directly.

"With the squire Chen repaying me as my minister, escorting my prince to the border to fight the plague, if there is a mistake, I will ask you."
