"What?" Hearing this, everyone was a little dumbfounded, why did they retreat when they could easily enter Changyu County?

Seeing that the generals were all at a loss, Lin Haotian smiled confidently and said, "If you don't do this, how can Mu Jun take the bait?"

Although Ouyang Xuan's ability is not very good, he is also very clear about the strength of his side, and he is timid and afraid, so under normal circumstances, he will definitely not fight easily.

Time passed in a flash, and on the fifth day of Ouyang Xuan's retreat to Changyu County, the Mu Army scouts reported that the guards in the Jin Army camp stationed in Changyu County two days ago suddenly decreased, and the sound of military horses in the camp was much smaller than before, I don't know for what reason.

Ouyang Xuan frowned secretly after hearing this, and ordered the spies to probe and report again.

The next day, the spies reported that the guards of the Jin army camp were reduced again, and the practice in the camp was even weaker.

On the third day, there were almost no guards in the Jin army camp, and the sound of practice in the camp disappeared completely, leaving only the chaotic sound of tidying up the camp.

The spies told Ouyang Xuan about the situation as soon as possible, and after hearing this, the latter couldn't believe his ears, the Jin army was about to set camp? There was a large army of their own side in front of them, and it was impossible for them to go south, so there was only one possibility left, that is, the Jin army was going to retreat?!

This is really a big pie smashed on his head, Ouyang Xuan was happy, and the wooden generals in the camp were even more excited, this war was finally coming to an end, and the Jin army, which had forced himself to have no way out, was finally leaving.

At this time, the impulsive wooden general immediately got up and said, "General, the retreat of the Jin army is a good time for our army to take the initiative to attack." The Admiral must not miss this opportunity!"

That's right! Ouyang Xuan's eyes lit up at first, but after thinking about it, he shook his head again and muttered: "The Jin army is cunning, we can't afford not to guard against it! Our army will first wait and see if the Jin army will really retreat or fake it!"

"Yes!

Early the next morning. Ouyang Xuan was still asleep, when he heard someone outside shouting repeatedly: "The Jin army has withdrawn! The Jin army has retreated!"

Hearing the shouting, Ouyang Xuan seemed to have been electrified, and got up from the bed collapse, not even bothering to put on his shoes, he strode to the door of the tent and asked the guards outside, "What are you all shouting?"

"Back to the general, a happy event, a great happy event! The Jin army has retreated! The camp of the Jin army has been withdrawn!"

"Huh?" Ouyang Xuan gasped. He stood stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, and asked urgently, "Is this ...... When did this happen? When did the Jin army retreat?"

The guards said in a rambling voice, "That's the news I just got!"

Without waiting for Ouyang Xuan to continue to ask, the scouts of the wooden army galloped over on horseback, arrived in front of Ouyang Xuan's camp, got down directly from the war horse, rushed to Ouyang Xuan's approach, and screamed: "General, the Jin army has already retreated. It's out of the mile now!"

"Can you see clearly?"

"What the villain saw with his own eyes, it's true!"

"Haha! God help me! God help me!" Ouyang Xuan finally believed that this was true. Jumping up excitedly, he waved his hand at the guards on the left and right, and said, "Quick! Go and gather the generals and go to the camp of the Jin army with this commander!" After speaking, he took the lead in walking towards the Chinese military tent.

"General, general, you don't have shoes and clothes yet!" the guards hurriedly stepped forward. stopped Ouyang Xuan, who was extremely excited.

Ouyang Xuan looked down, patted his head vigorously, turned around and walked back into the tent, assisted by the guards, and put on his armor. Then he walked briskly towards the military tent in the middle of the direction.

The Jin army did withdraw, and the original Jin army camp was only left in one place at this time, and many inconvenient sundries were left behind, showing that the retreat of the Jin army was very hasty.

Facts have proved that the Jin army did not pretend to retreat, but really retreated, and many Jin generals began to suggest to Ouyang Xuan again to hunt down the retreating Jin army.

But Ouyang Xuan still didn't answer, he couldn't understand, the Jin army's good weishenme was going to retreat? If it weren't for the big changes in the army, the Jin army would not have given up so easily, but what happened in the Jin army?

In the camp of the Jin army, Ouyang Xuan was accompanied by the generals, walking slowly, looking left and right, hoping to find some clues to the retreat of the Jin army.

After walking for a while, Ouyang Xuan suddenly frowned, turned around and asked the generals behind him, "Why is there a strange smell in the golden camp?"

At this time, all the wood generals also smelled it, and people nodded and responded: "It's a strange smell, it seems to be ...... Is it medicinal?!"

Ouyang Xuan didn't ask any more questions, continued to move forward, and walked not far away, he saw a decoction jar on the ground, Ouyang Xuan hurriedly stepped forward, squatted down, lifted the jar, and didn't need to put it on the side of his nose, the strong smell of medicine had already rushed to his back. He tilted his head sideways, covered his nose with his cuffs, and asked, "Who knows what kind of medicine Jin Jun boiled?"

The wooden army only knows how to lead the troops to fight, where do they know how to know medicine?

Seeing that all the generals shook their heads and said they didn't know, Ouyang Xuan shouted: "Call the military doctor over!"

After a short time, the military doctors in the Mu Army were brought over by the guards, Ouyang Xuan handed the medicine jar to the military doctor, and said, "You guys come and identify what kind of medicine is boiled in here and what it is for." ”

Several military doctors hurriedly took over the medicine jar, removed some of the remaining medicine residue inside, carefully inspected and sniffed, and after a long time, a military doctor raised his head and said: "General, among these medicines fried by Jin Jun, there are Chuanxiong, Huangling, Codonopsis, licorice and other medicines. ”

"Oh?" Ouyang Xuan perked up, stepped forward, and asked, "What are these medicines for?"

The medic looked at the other colleagues, and then said in an affirmative tone, "It's for malaria." ”

Malaria?!

Ouyang Xuan's eyebrows tightened, and he fell into deep thought.

At this time, the general in charge of the Mu Army's spies suddenly remembered something, and said to Ouyang Xuan urgently: "General, at the end of the past few days, the general has received a lot of news, saying that the number of sneak attacks by the Jin Army on China's villages and towns has decreased a lot, but every time they sneak attack, they will go crazy to rob the medicines in the villages and towns, especially those mentioned by the military doctor just now. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, several Mu sergeants in front of him ran over quickly, and when Ouyang Xuan approached, he panted and said, "General, there are many medicine jars and medicine residues left by the Jin Army in front!"

"Oh, take me to see it!" Ouyang Xuan's eyes lit up, and he let Sergeant Mu lead the way, and he quickly followed.

Walking forward for a while, sure enough, there were dozens of medicine jars in an open space full of debris, and the ground was full of black medicine residues.

Ouyang Xuan's eyes rolled, and he suddenly realized, no wonder the Jin army would retreat suddenly, it turned out that malaria was spreading in the Jin army, and there were so many medicine jars left, and there were not many medicine jars taken away, it seems that there are not a few soldiers in the Jin army who suffer from malaria.

At this time, the military doctors also came over, checked the medicine residue on the ground, and nodded one after another, and the military doctor who spoke just now said: "General, the northern part of the Jin country is dry, and Changyu County is located in the south of the Jin country, it is very hot and humid, it must be the first time that the Jin army has arrived, and it is not suitable for the weather here, and it does not pay attention to the measures to prevent mosquitoes, which led to the rampant malaria, and it seems that the retreat of the Jin army has something to do with it!"

“haha――”

Ouyang Xuan heard this, looking up to the sky.

Malaria is a disease that is not serious in terms of medical skills at that time, and it is not light to say that it is not light, and there is a way to treat it, but the healing process is very slow and long, and if you suffer from malaria, let alone fight, you may not even be able to stand on your feet, and now there is a large-scale malaria in the Jin army, isn't this a good opportunity for your own pursuit?

Ouyang Xuan's eyes lit up at this moment, and he even began to fantasize about the sensational scene of the people welcoming him when he broke the Jin Army and led the people back to Mu Country.

At this time, the other wooden generals also thought it was a good opportunity to take the initiative to attack, and they all asked Ouyang Xuan for battle, and immediately sent troops to chase and kill the retreating Jin army.

Ouyang Xuan waved his hand with a smile and said, "If malaria really breaks out in the Jin army, their retreat will definitely not go far, and our army can sneak attack the Jin camp at night!"

But if the Jin army successfully withdraws from Changyu County, won't they miss this good opportunity? The wooden generals muttered silently in their hearts, but everyone also knew that Ouyang Xuan was very timid and couldn't listen to other people's opinions at all, and the wooden generals looked at each other, and no one spoke again.

Ouyang Xuan happily led the generals back to the camp of the Mu Army, as if he had calculated that the Jin army would not be far away, and after returning to the camp, he ordered the whole army to stop drilling, go back to the barracks to rest, recuperate their spirits, and wait until the evening to fight to the death with the Jin army.
