Chapter 350: The city is fixed, Xu Zhenggui is enlightened
"His Royal Highness King Xie Yan." thigh
Zhu Qingxiong came back to his senses and bowed repeatedly.
On the other hand, Xu Zhenggui not far behind Xu Yi.
It seems that he has not yet recovered from the huge blow.
He hung his head weakly.
Seeing this, Zhu Qingxiong quietly moved his steps to remind him.
"Stand back and rest."
Don't wait for him to go to Xu Zhenggui's side. thigh
Xu Yi spoke slowly again.
"Yes."
Zhu Qingxiong paused and saluted again.
When Xu Yi turned around again to look at the water situation of the river embankment below.
Zhu Qingxiong hurriedly walked a few steps and pulled the godless Xu Zhenggui down the barren mountain.
Not much.
At the foot of a barren mountain. thigh
Zhu Qingxiong, who was exhausted, paused breathlessly.
On the other hand, Xu Zhenggui beside him.
Standing at the foot of the mountain like a walking corpse.
His eyes were full of dead ashes.
"Xu County Order, wake up!"
"Xu County Order, wake up!"
Zhu Qingxiong took a break, and then nudged Xu Zhenggui. thigh
Trying to wake it up completely.
However, the slightest shaking had no effect at this point.
"Smack!"
"Xu Zhenggui! Wake up!"
Zhu Qingxiong had no choice but to try to wake him up.
"Awake?"
Seeing that Xu Zhenggui's eyes had a little focus, Zhu Qingxiong hurriedly asked. thigh
"Zhu ...... Expensive wrong....... Wrong......
"If you can always stay calm and stick to your position."
"Convenience...... There will be no ...... There won't be so many innocent people...... The innocent died in vain."
"Gui...... Sorry for ..... Shame on the people of the city."
Xu Zhenggui's eyes were red, and he burst into tears.
"Ugh."
Zhu Qingxiong sighed deeply when he heard this. thigh
Everyone in the world knows the reason that he is in his position and does not seek his government if he is not in his position.
But how many people in the world today can really abide by their own position and not transgress it?
And how many people can keep a cool head and not be impulsive at all times?
And how many people can control the overall situation at all times, such as eating wine and drinking tea?
"His Royal Highness King Yan? Extraordinary people, too."
Thinking of this, Zhu Qingxiong couldn't help but think of Xu Yi standing on a barren mountain with his back to the bonfire and everyone's back.
There is a strong sense of emotion in my heart. thigh
"No one is a saint or a sage."
"Knowing your mistakes can make a difference."
Zhu Qingxiong shook his head slightly and said with relief.
However, no matter how he shook his head, Xu Yi's back always lingered.
"Ugh."
Xu Zhenggui was speechless and sighed deeply.
Fang Cai's words kept echoing in his mind. thigh
I don't know how long it took.
Maybe a quarter of an hour or two.
Maybe it's more than 100 breaths.
Xu Zhenggui slowly turned around and knelt heavily on his knees facing the figure on the barren mountain.
"Knock~!"
"Knock~!"
"Knock~!" thigh
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Xie Yan has awakened your grace."
Xu Zhenggui kowtowed three times.
Then he got up and looked at Zhu Qingxiong beside him.
"Zhu County Order, don't leave it here."
Xu Zhenggui bowed his hand and saluted.
"Where is the Xu County Order?"
Zhu Qingxiong's complexion changed slightly, for fear that Xu Zhenggui would not be able to think of finding a short-term view. thigh
"Seek his own government in his place."
Xu Zhenggui stretched out his hand and pointed to the orderly river embankment not far away.
"After this is the case, you will take the initiative to write and resign."
"But now, you are still the county commander."
"Since he has been the county magistrate, he should be in charge."
Xu Zhenggui said with a serious face.
...... thigh
......
On top of a barren mountain.
Xu Yi put his hands behind his back and stared at the riverbank below with an expressionless face.
Accompanied by the issuance of one military order after another.
and the efficient execution of more than 3,000 kings' battalion soldiers.
The torrential flow from the eastern part of the embankment is initially controllable.
The rest is just a matter of time. thigh
Meanwhile.
The officials, county soldiers, and people who were originally in chaos rested for a while.
After being organized and dispatched by the middle- and low-level officers of Wang Daying, it initially took on a different color.
Looking down from the barren mountain.
I saw that the embankment was full of a sense of orderliness that made people feel comfortable.
Just as Xu Yi carefully observed the embankment below.
Wang Jingbo quietly returned from the embankment. thigh
"Lord Wang."
Wang Jingbo walked two steps away from Xu Yi and saluted in a low voice.
"Say."
Xu Yi opened his mouth to answer.
"Yes."
Wang Jingbo agreed, and then immediately walked out of the way that Fang had just explored.
It is no exaggeration to say. thigh
Xu Zhenggui and Zhu Qingxiong's every move after leaving the barren mountain was seen by "Xu Yi".
After hearing that Xu Zhenggui left the barren mountain, he did not return to rest.
Instead, some government officials, county soldiers, and fast horses were mobilized.
Ordered it to patrol all rivers in the city as quickly as possible.
and after going deep into the mountain villages in the city to investigate whether there are landslides, mudslides and other disasters.
The corners of Xu Yi's mouth, who was facing away from the bonfire, couldn't help but rise slightly for a moment.
"If you know your mistakes, you can change them." thigh
"Barely saved."
Xu Yi nodded slightly, and secretly commented in his heart.
Xu Zhenggui's various performances in the fight against disasters undoubtedly made Xu Yi extremely disappointed.
The reason why he is still willing to give it a chance.
It's nothing more than for the sake of its desperate fight against disasters.
and to take care of the feelings of the people in the city.
Xu Zhenggui's various performances in the fight against disasters seem to be foolish. thigh
But in the eyes of ordinary people, he is a rare good official.
If this opportunity passes.
Xu Zhenggui still can't meet the minimum standard in his heart.
Then what awaits Xu Zhenggui will inevitably be to spend the rest of his life in the most insignificant subordinate position of the Yan Palace.
"No need to probe further."
Xu Yi shook his head slightly, and made a slight move.
"Yes." thigh
Wang Jingbo agreed, and then silently stepped aside.
Meanwhile.
Several waves of heralds rushed along the riverbank towards the barren mountain bonfire.
"Lord Wang, the news of the various ministries has reached the bottom of the mountain."
Wang Jingbo took a closer look, and then came out again to hold his fist.
"Biography."
Xu Yi slowly turned around and faced the bonfire. thigh
"Yes!"
Wang Jingbo agreed, and then quickly turned around and walked towards the foot of the mountain.
Not much.
Several heralds followed Wang Jingbo to the campfire on the hillside.
"We will meet the prince."
Several heralds' bodies trembled slightly, and they lowered their heads and clasped their fists in unison.
"Excuse me." thigh
Xu Yi waved his hand slightly, and then stretched out his cold hands to the side.
It seems to be a small action, but it invisibly alleviates several heralds
Nervous heart.
"Lord Qiqi."
"The water situation in Wangjiatun has been controlled."
"Chang Qianhu and 500 reinforcements are now resting in Wangjiatun to wait for the king's order."
"Lord Qiqi."
"The water situation in Hejia Town has been controlled." thigh
"You Qianhu and the 1,500 soldiers who came with reinforcements are now resting in Hejia Town, waiting for the king's order."
"Lord Qiqi."
"The water situation in the village has been controlled."
"Zhang Qianhu's department and the thousands of soldiers who came from the reinforcements are now resting in Ziliu Township, waiting for the king's order."
"Lord Qiqi."
"The water situation in Mengzhuang Township has been controlled."
"Ye Qianhu's department and the thousands of soldiers who came from the reinforcements are now resting in Mengzhuang Township, waiting for the king's order." thigh
"Lord Qiqi."
"Captain Xin's 2,000 soldiers and horses have arrived five miles from the city."
Good news came out of the mouths of several heralds one after another.
At this time, the sky was not stormy, but it was still dark.
It's still a little time before the dawn really breaks.
Next to a campfire in a barren mountain.
The corners of Xu Yi's mouth rose slightly when he heard this, and he finally saw a slight smile on his expressionless face. thigh
"Summons Xin Sixuanbu, arrive here in two quarters of an hour."
"Swap guards with Cao Xijiang."
"Summoned Qu Baotian, You Yaoqing, Chang Sanjin, Zhang Junsong, and Ye Guolu."
"Whoever has his home in the territory of the city."
"Immediately return to your hometown to save your family."
"One person returns home, and two people accompany him."
"Do a good job of counting the losses in the families of the soldiers." thigh
Xu Yi sighed for a few breaths, and then ordered in a deep voice.
"Obey!"
Several heralds clasped their fists and saluted before quickly disappearing around the campfire.
After the figures of several heralds completely disappeared from sight.
Xu Yi turned around and sighed silently.
......
...... thigh
More than halfway through.
The sky, which had been overcast for several days, finally brightened slightly.
At the foot of the barren mountains.
Countless soldiers of the king's battalion formed one round army formation after another.
Sit around one blazing bonfire after another.
The soldiers of Wang Dayeng who were sitting on the ground were all tired.
But there is always a heartfelt smile on his face. thigh
Not far from the outermost part of the circular formation.
Countless people in the city spontaneously carried stoves, food and other things.
Outside the circular formation, smoke curled up one after another.
Bowls of steaming porridge and rice were passed through the hands of the people to the circular military formation.
Although most of its porridge is old grain.
But somehow.
But the soldiers of the king's camp ate very sweetly. thigh
Halfway up a barren mountain.
Xu Yi held a bowl of brown rice porridge and sat on the ground around the bonfire with a group of generals.
Although the porridge and rice in his hand are made of brown rice.
But there was not the slightest grit or anything in it.
It can be seen how attentive the people of the city are.
Xu Yi used up the last bite of porridge in the bowl, and then looked at the happy soldiers and civilians at the foot of the mountain.
The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he never let go. thigh
Not much.
Xu Zhenggui, who was half-dry, finally mustered up the courage to walk to the bottom of the barren mountain again.
"Lord Wang, I want to see you in the city county."
After receiving the news, Wang Jingbo quickly walked to Xu Yi's side.
"Let him come up."
Xu Yi calmed down a little when he heard this, and then commanded.
"Yes." thigh
Wang Jingbo agreed, and then walked quickly towards the herald.
More than a moment
After the bell.
Xu Zhenggui cautiously walked to Xu Yi's three steps away.
"Your Majesty Xu Zhenggui, meet His Royal Highness King Yan."
Xu Zhenggui bowed deeply.
"Excuse me."
Xu Yi slowly got up from the campfire. thigh
"His Royal Highness King Yan."
"The lower officials are entrusted by the people of the city."
"I hereby invite His Royal Highness King Yan and Wang Shi to enter the city to rest."
Xu Zhenggui bowed deeply again.
"Xu County Ling and the people of Xucheng have a heart."
"However, there is something wrong with the army entering the city."
Xu Yi glanced at Xu Zhenggui meaningfully, and then said in reject. thigh
The vassal king has no right to the people's livelihood.
It sent troops to aid the city, which was already a transgression.
Although Sun Daohua can be used to beg each other bitterly, to block the court and the mouth.
But this had to be based on the premise that the army had never entered the city.
If the army enters the city today.
Even though Xu Yi's whole body is full of mouths.
I'm afraid it's hard to tell the story. thigh
"It's the lower officials who don't think about it."
"This time the city is in danger, and there are many manors outside the city that are vacant."
"I don't know if the king can go to that empty place to rest for a while."
Xu Zhenggui did not change in the slightest when he heard this, and it was obvious that the so-called manor outside the city was the real place for his preparation.
"Yes."
Xu Yi glanced at Xu Zhenggui meaningfully again, and then nodded in agreement.
The army traveled for a day and a night, experienced two violent storms and rains, and went deep into the flood epidemic many times to block water and save people. thigh
Nearly 20,000 soldiers were physically and mentally exhausted.
At this time, the most important thing is to find a place to shelter from the wind and rain, so that you can rest and recuperate.
To prevent the potential hazards caused by the winter cold.
And in Xu Yi's original plan.
After all the soldiers have eaten.
He will divide the army into pieces and divide them into various towns and villages in the city for temporary accommodation.
And now there are better options. thigh
Xu Yi would not be able to choose the more uncontrollable move than the manor.
"Leave a few men to lead the way."
"Lone will arrange it later."
Xu Yi calmed down a little, and then commanded.
"Yes, Lord."
Xu Zhenggui's heart was tense, and he should have given it up.
"Recruit all the healers in the city, and buy a large number of typhoid medicines." thigh
"At the gate of the city, set up a medicine shed to spread the medicine of typhoid fever."
"If you encounter a person with mobility difficulties, you will order the official to come to the door to decoction in person."
"Make sure that every citizen in the city takes at least three pairs of typhoid medicine."
Xu Yi seemed to have heard of Xu Zhenggui's name change, and instructed the next matters by himself.
"Yes! Lord Wang!"
Xu Zhenggui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this, and then hurriedly surrendered his hand again.
"Besides." thigh
"From today onwards, the drinking water of the people of the city must be boiled thoroughly before drinking."
"Choose the best of the self-healers."
"Order it to go deep into the townships, towns, and villages, and strictly guard against the big . plague."
Xu Yi commanded in a deep voice again.
After the great water, there will be great one; Pestilence.
This matter must not be treated cautiously.
As for the fate of the people of the city, the water must be boiled thoroughly before drinking. thigh
This move though can't completely avoid the big. epidemic, but it can isolate it.
"Obey!"
Listen to the word epidemic.
Xu Zhenggui couldn't help but look straight, and then bowed with a serious face.
"Later, all the tents of the county government will be transported to this place."
"As for the problem of standing water in the fields."
"I'll deal with it when I wake up." thigh
"During this time, anyone is strictly ordered to drain into the drain."
Xu Yi commanded in a deep voice again.
The words fell.
Xu Yi waved his hand slightly, signaling Xu Zhenggui to step back.
"Obey!"
"The lower official will retire first."
Seeing this, Xu Zhenggui bowed with interest. thigh
After Xu Zhenggui's figure completely disappeared halfway up the hill.
Xu Yi immediately looked at the herald beside him.
"Summoned Qu Baotian, Dong Xing, You Yaoqing, Chang Sanjin, Zhang Junsong, Ye Guolu, and Niu Yuanheng."
"The soldiers of all the divisions will rest nearby."
"Shen Shi, except for the soldiers who returned to their hometowns."
"The rest are out of the city."
"Besides." thigh
"Summoned to Chongwen."
"Tents, medicinal herbs, grain and grass, and other supplies must arrive at the foot of the city before the time of application."
Xu Yi slowly opened his mouth and commanded.
"Obey!"
Wang Jingbo agreed, and then quickly walked towards the herald on the side.
Xu Yi calmed down slightly.
Then he looked at Gu Dengyun, the guard officer on the side. thigh
accompanied by Xu Yi's issuance of military orders one after another.
The more than 5,000 soldiers of the king battalion under the barren mountain moved quickly again.
Not much.
There were only more than 100 guards and more than 1,000 soldiers left near the entire barren mountain.
