Volume 1: The First Signs Chapter 43, the rumors are coming to the city

Under the arrangement of the county guard, it is necessary to take care of the safety of the patients in the city, and in addition, it is necessary to take defensive measures to prevent the spread of the disease and endanger more people.

And Lu Zhaoyi and the others walked all the way through the broken water, and at the foot of the big mountain in front of them, the outline of a city appeared in front of them.

It was late at night, but it seemed that they could still hear the wailing in the city.

The sound of horses' hooves also attracted the attention of the county guards, who could only see from a distance that this group of men and horses were fully armed cavalry, and their faces turned pale with fright.

The sound of the movement of the people and horses of the brigade spread for miles away, getting closer and closer, and the guards guarding the city standing on the city tower were also becoming more and more nervous, looking at the group of people who were pressing the ground and coming in the direction of the city gate, they couldn't help but feel nervous.

"Quick, go and report to Sheng Taishou, there is a cavalry of about 3,000 people, coming to the county seat!" The guard looked panicked and called out to his colleagues, but the guard did not dare to delay at all, and immediately ran down the tower.

In just a county town, how can there be any strength to resist a cavalry corps of thousands of people?

Before I knew who it was, all the guards guarding the city were in full array, and all of them were extremely nervous and frightened.

It wasn't until recently, through the banner held below, that everyone learned that these were the black-armored cavalry of the Qingzhou Army.

"The imperial court has sent someone!"

"The imperial court has sent officials to help us, we are saved!"

Seeing this, the nervous mood just now disappeared in an instant, and turned into ecstasy, and one by one they cheered and excitedly opened the city gate to welcome the reinforcements into the city.

And Taishou Shengchi, when he learned that it was the Qingzhou Black Armor Guard Cavalry, he immediately became excited, and laughed, "It's Gouchen Military Division, this is Gouchen Military Division's team, we have been saved." ”

He was eager to tell the people of the city about this, and shouted as he walked towards the city gate.

They were not aware of all this when they were hurrying outside the city, and they only came closer to hear some noise in the city.

"Why is it so noisy inside? Are they treating us as robbers? Qu Zhiyun wondered.

Lu Zhaoyi couldn't help but glance at her several times, and pointed out of the carriage before getting out of the car, "The military flag of the black armor guard of the Qingzhou Army, it is impossible for them not to know each other." ”

After speaking, she got up and got out of the car, and at this time, the city gate just opened, and Qu Zhiyun also walked down with her.

In the distance, they saw a fat figure, who was not even fully clothed, and ran out to meet him.

"Xiaguan Anfeng County is too shou Shengchi, meet the envoy!"

Sheng Chi was separated by several zhang distance, and the cotton silk covered his mouth and nose, and he knelt and bowed from a distance, and behind him, there were also several county officials and county guards who also bowed.

Looking at such a big battle, Qu Zhiyun looked slightly stunned, and was even more surprised, under the catastrophe, he could still organize and mobilize in such an orderly manner, and govern the entire sick city so well, it can be seen that this county guard is not bad.

She was still thinking in her head, and when she looked up, she saw Sheng Chi's eyes red, tears unstoppable, and she couldn't speak for a long time with a crying voice.

"Xiaguan, Xiaguan, finally, it's time for you!"

Thousands of people died of the disease, tens of thousands of people were infected with the disease, and although Shengchi, as the county guard, had a rich monthly salary, it stands to reason that he could not support such a large-scale expenditure.

But on the contrary, he is holding his own money, and in this remote county, he is struggling to support it, this seemingly slim rescue!

"Sheng Taishou has worked hard." Lu Zhaoyi's chin raised slightly, and he couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes for a while, "I was ordered by His Majesty to come to treat the boil, and I have arrived in Anfeng County today, and I hope that Taishou will cooperate." ”

"Your Majesty will do your best to live up to Your Majesty's grace!" Sheng Chi hurriedly said, "The lower official immediately summoned the county lieutenant, the chief secretary and other senior officials to discuss countermeasures together, and let the envoy send him, and he will never flinch!" ”

Lu Zhaoyi nodded, acknowledging his respect, "That's the best." ”

The two sides stared at each other for a long time, and the medical officers and their entourage, along with the black armor guards, also prepared to lead the team into the city.

But at this time, Sheng Chi's face was greatly surprised, and in a panic, he wiped away his tears and hurriedly opened his arms to block the team.

"The Superior Envoy can't!"

As soon as he spoke, countless pairs of eyes stared at him, and they all stopped what they were doing.

"All the sick in the whole county that can be sheltered are already in the city. If the envoy and others are infected, the consequences are unimaginable, please move to the Yiren Pavilion outside the city, and wait for us to discuss the treatment method, and then enter the city before it is too late! ”

As soon as these words were spoken, countless people in the team marveled at his wit, and admired his way of dealing with things in danger, so calm, clear thinking to point out the problem, if it were not for the outbreak of the disease, then the people here must be lucky.

Unfortunately, disaster struck and everything backfired......

Led by a group of officials, they came to the Yiren Pavilion.

Lu Zhaoyi, Qu Zhiyun, Lin Xingzhi and several accompanying medical officers sat in the lobby of the museum, and the middle was covered by a screen, so as to isolate the possible source of the disease.

"The lower officials must first report to the higher authorities." Sheng Chi paused in contemplation, "Anfeng County has been more than a month since the outbreak of the disease, first from Chengde County, Linjun County, and then it spread, and then half a month ago, Anfeng County was affected by the re-outbreak of Shouchun County, Linjun, and most people were infected, and now the city is full of patients, and even the streets are full of people. ”

These words fell on Lu Zhaoyi's ears, making him frown and groan.

Is there another outbreak in Shouchun County?

In this weather, how can there be another outbreak of furuncles? Could it be ...... Is it manipulative?

"What was it like half a month ago? Sheng Taishou, please elaborate! Lu Zhaoyi looked nervous and hurriedly asked.

When Shouchun County broke out again, it happened to be the day when they had just set off from Luojing to the south, if there was no conspiracy, how could there be such a coincidence?

Lu Zhaoyi's eyes rolled, and he faintly sensed something...... Speculation in my heart that they may have been calculated!

Ke Sheng Chi's face was embarrassed, and he turned his head to look at the master book behind him, and the man came forward, "Lu Niangzi, Lin Yicheng, the next official is the head of the county, Lin Xuan, according to the Huainan County master book, Shouchun County has another warbar, similar to the last time in Chengde County, it is caused by the death of livestock. ”

He bowed his head and sighed, "Since then, the two counties have issued lists, strictly prohibiting people from slaughtering livestock at will, and if livestock are found to be sick and dead, they will immediately report to the county government, and they must not touch it privately!" ”

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Lu Zhaoyi was even more heartbroken, it was another disease caused by livestock, could it be said that someone was really deliberately fueling the troubles behind it?

But who are these people? They only felt that this matter was strange.

Suddenly, the building became extremely quiet, and everyone had something on their minds.

In the end, it was Sheng Chi who broke the peace again.

"The envoy, the lower officials have counted the number of people so far, and the envoy also has a number in his heart."

All eyes were on him.

"At present, in Anfeng County, 64,769 people have been infected, 5,671 have died, and 1,095 have been cured."

"So far, all the numbers have been counted by the county officials, as well as remote areas and mountain col villages, and they have not been counted, this is the situation in Anfeng County for more than a month!"

After listening to his description, everyone was amazed, behind every number, there is a fresh life, especially under the rampant disease, if there is no effective cure, once infected with such a strange disease, it is almost a certain death.

She slowly closed her eyes, speechless for a long time, and finally slowly spit out a sentence, "How many people have not been able to contain it?" ”
