Chapter 195 Collecting the hearts of the people

Chapter 195 collects the hearts of the people

Huang Chuqiu didn't sweat on his back until he left the house, and he recalled the appearance of Hu Wei just now, and he felt the murderous aura of Hu Wei very clearly. To read the latest chapters, please lock in to Aishang Novel Network biquge.info this point is confirmed by the thin blood mark on Huang Wude's neck.

Huang Chuqiu now regrets that he rushed to Langtian in such a hurry, he underestimated the ruthlessness of Hu Yu. This kid is really bold and dares to do anything.

It is not easy to stay here for a long time, as soon as Huang Chuqiu came out of the city lord's mansion, he didn't even look for a doctor, so he hurriedly took his 1,000 men and horses out of Langtian City. The first two times, he hid from the Red Turban Army, and this time, he hid from Hu Wei. He was afraid that Hu Wei would really kill him. This is now Hu Wei's territory, and if Hu Wei wants to kill him, he won't even float out of the wind.

In the study of the Langtian City Lord's Mansion, Xuan Ri reported to Hu Wei: "Young Marshal, as you expected, Huang Chuqiu has already taken people out of Langtian. ”

Hu Wei nodded, 'um', indicating that he had heard it. These were already in his calculations, and there was nothing surprising about them.

Xuan Ri asked: "Young marshal, I don't understand, why don't you just kill Huang Chuqiu." Wouldn't it be better to solve him here than to bring the problem to the emperor?"

At this time, Hu Wei's face was no longer as crazy as he had just now, he put down the book in his hand, sighed and said, "Do you think I don't want to kill Huang Chuqiu, when I think of the disgusting things he did in Langtian, I want to vomit."

But no, I'm different from your master, in this Mandala Empire, my foundation is still too shallow. In the past few years, in order to develop, I have been in the limelight at any cost. It has now attracted the attention of many parties.

Before, we were in Qingzhou or Dongwang City, all of which were high and far away from the emperor, even if we jumped a little more, they didn't touch the interests of those upper-class families, even if they were dissatisfied, they didn't bother to pay attention to us.

This Langtian is different, although Rijkaard did not have a capital here, but Langtian is still the center of the Mandala Empire. The major forces here are crisscrossed and intertwined, and each force has huge interests here.

If we are ruthless to Huang Chuqiu as soon as we come up, then everyone will be alert to us. The Mandala Empire was ostensibly Valencian, but in fact the power of the major families also controlled a large part of it, especially in the economic aspect. As soon as they unite against us, we will not be able to move an inch.

At present, our primary goal is to develop the economy, and the economy is the first combat force. With money, we can have soldiers and food. So we have to move from a high-profile to a low-key one. ”

Hu Wei's flip is obviously deliberate. The coherent voice was very clear, and I could hear the nodding day after day.

Xuan Ri thought for a while and asked, "What about the imperial capital? When do you plan to go to the imperial capital?" I believe that Valencia's herald will arrive in a few days. ”

Hu Wei took a sip of tea, patted the chair beside him, and motioned for Xuanri to sit down, before continuing: "I definitely have to go to this imperial capital, but not now, I will try to find a way to drag it out, and I will not go until the waves are completely controlled." ”

Speaking of this wave of heaven, Hu Wei couldn't help but have a headache again. Langtian has a permanent population of one million and hundreds of thousands of floating population. Huang Chuqiu's messing around for decades has made the people of this wave of heaven have a very low level of trust in the official. Even if all the soldiers of the Undead Bird Legion were ordered by Hu Wei to be kind to the people and do their best to avoid head-on clashes with the local people, but so far, the people still have no good impression of the Undead Bird Legion. It seems that it is not easy to be like Dongwang City and quickly win the support of the people.

Xuan Ri saw Hu Wei frowning and pondering, and he also knew what Hu Wei was thinking about in his heart. But she didn't have anything to do about it. She is good at strategy and tactics, and she is not good at subduing the hearts of the people. Because the Ningnan Empire has been very united for a hundred years, and the people are very supportive of the royal family, there is no need to worry about this aspect at all, so she doesn't know much about this aspect.

"Spinning the sun. Hu Wei thought for a long time, and turned his head to look at Xuan Ri, who had been sitting beside him.

At this time, Jebe and Ximen Xue were both sent by Hu Wei to do things, and in this study, there were only two people, Hu Wei and Xuanri. As a member of the Xuanri Ningnan Empire, Hu Wei felt that he could discuss some things with her.

"Huh?" Xuan Ri looked at Hu You, and she could feel that Hu Wei seemed to have made some decision in her heart.

Hu Wei hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you think in a short period of time, what method can be used to gather the people's hearts and minds as quickly as possible?"

Xuan Ri was already thinking about this question just now, but she didn't have an answer, so she shook her head and said, "I don't know much about this aspect. If I had to say a way, I think it would be to be kind to the people. ”

Hu Wei nodded and said, "It's certain to be kind to the people, but it will take a long time." We don't have that much time to wait right now. The so-called extraordinary times, do extraordinary things. To buy the hearts and minds of the people, sometimes you have to pay attention to methods. ”

Xuan Ri asked, "Young Master, do you already have a way?"

Hu Wei glanced around and made sure that the two of them were here, so he lowered his voice and said, "Have you ever heard of a saying that it is called how difficult it is to prosper the country, unite as one?"

Xuan Ri whispered Hu Wei's words twice, and suddenly thought of something, and shouted in shock: "Young master, you want to"

Hu Wei sealed Xuanri's small mouth and said in her ear: "There are some things, it's good to know in your heart, don't say it." ”

Xuan Ri nodded vigorously, and after Hu Wei let go, she immediately said anxiously and worriedly: "Young Master, have you really decided to do that? If this matter is exposed, then your efforts and future prospects will be ruined." ”

Hu Wei said with a stern face: "Risk and benefit are always proportional, without huge risk, there is no huge benefit." This kind of thing has been done by kings throughout the ages, and we are just picking up the wisdom of our predecessors. As long as it is done properly, there are no problems. You'll help me, won't you?"

Xuanri's whole body was shocked, he got up and knelt down in front of Hu Wei's body, and said sternly: "When I left the palace, the princess once said to our four sisters that no matter what the concubine asked us to do, we would not hesitate. Xuan Ri and the other four sisters swore to complete any instructions handed over by the horse. ”

Doing this is tantamount to showing loyalty to Hu Wei and being willing to do anything for Hu Wei, even if it is a big rebellion.

"Okay, get up. Hu Wei helped Xuanri up from the ground and said, "I'll tell you later." You just have to do what I say. ”

This is a conversation that is destined not to be recorded in the history books, what kind of task did Hu Wei give to Xuanri, and how did the four maids of Xuanri completely worry about this order, with the end of the dialogue, it has become an eternal mystery.

After 10 days:

Jebe rushed into Hu Wei's bedroom with a panicked face, and without even knocking on the door, he threw himself on the side of Hu Wei's bed and shouted loudly: "Young marshal, something is wrong, a large-scale epidemic has suddenly broken out in Langtian City. ”

Hu Wei put on a piece of clothing and sat up and said, "Something happened, speak slowly, don't worry." ”

Jebel replied with a pale face, "Here's the thing. This morning, a soldier came to report that among the common people in Langtian, there were suddenly many people with diarrhea, nausea, and persistent fever. I thought it was strange, so I sent a military doctor to check it out.

After more than a dozen military doctors looked at the condition, they unanimously concluded that there was an outbreak of plague. ”

"Plague?" Hu Wei jumped out of bed and said while getting dressed: "Immediately sent an order to Ximen Xue, Xuanri, Zhu Daneng, Hou San, Harrison, Kochishi and other generals at the level of major general and above, to lead people to the east, west, north and south districts to find out the situation, and two hours later, call an emergency meeting in the conference hall."

"Young marshal, the order has been passed according to your orders, and Zhu Daneng and other generals have been assigned to various districts. ”

Hu Wei nodded with satisfaction: "Very good." Jebel, you and I will take a look in the streets. ”

Zhebei worried: "Young marshal, there is a plague in the city, so you better not go." Or I'll take a look for you. ”

Hu Wei said categorically: "No, the people of Langtian are my people, I must go." ”

Two hours later, there was silence in the conference room of the Immortal Bird Legion, and Zhu Daneng and other generals all sat with pale faces, and no one said anything.

With a squeak, the door to the conference room was opened, and Hu Wei and Zhebei walked in. Jebe's face was a little blue, unusually ugly.

"Young marshal. ”

"Young marshal. ”

Seeing Hu Wei coming in, Yi Zhu Daneng and other generals all stood up.

Hu Wei walked to the main seat, pressed down with both hands and said, "Everyone sit down." ”

With a "swish", Zhu Daneng and the others sat down at the same time, looking at Hu Wei with a straight waist.

Hu Wei glanced around at everyone and said, "Hou San, you first talk about the situation." ”

"Yes" Hou San stood up and said, "After receiving the order from the young marshal, I will immediately take people to the Eastern District." At least 20,000 people were found in the eastern district, with unexplained persistent fever and diarrhea, vomiting, and so far, 17 people have been unconscious, but there have been no deaths for the time being. ”

After Hou San's report, Zhu Daneng and other generals also reported the information they had, and according to statistics, overnight, 180,000 people and 20,000 soldiers in the entire Langtian had persistent fever, diarrhea, and vomiting. Both military and civilian doctors confirmed that it was a plague and that it had never been seen before.

200,000 people were affected, and there was silence in the conference room again. This time the plague broke out so ferociously and on such a scale that it had never been done before.

According to the usual practice of the empire, once there is a plague, the place of occurrence will be isolated, one village will be isolated, one town will be isolated, and in order to avoid the spread of the plague, all the people in the epidemic area can only fend for themselves in it, and they are not allowed to take a step.

But the total number of soldiers and civilians in this Langtian City is as many as two million, so should they all die in Langtian City?

After listening to the summary report, Hu Wei immediately issued the supreme order of the Immortal Bird Legion, ordering:

"This is the biggest test that our Immortal Bird Legion and the people of Langtian have ever experienced. The order was ordered, the medical staff was immediately dispatched to slow down the spread of the epidemic, and the logistics department launched an emergency plan, and tried every way to purchase all kinds of medicinal materials at any cost. All pharmacies in the city are under military control.

Order: Independent regiments, special regiments, field regiments, guard regiments, and internal guard regiments are all dispatched to maintain the stability of the districts.

Ladies and gentlemen, the people are our parents, and this time the Immortal Bird Legion lives and dies with the people."

Li Zhengming, a native of the eastern district of Langtian City, at the age of fourteen, has grown into a young man, because his family background is okay, he has studied for two years, and now he works as a running hall in a restaurant.

When he got up this morning, he found that his mother had not made him breakfast as usual, and he thought it was strange, so he knocked on his mother's door, and saw a pale face.

"Mother, what's wrong with you, what's wrong?" Li Zhengming rushed to the bed and asked anxiously.

"Oh. Li Zhengming's mother opened her eyes and was about to speak, when she said 'wow', spitting out a large amount of fishy yellow water, and the house suddenly stinked.

Li Zhengming's father was a soldier, and when he was very young, he had already died in battle. He grew up with his mother, who has always been in good health, and this has never happened. This sudden change made the fourteen-year-old Li Zhengming lose his former composure, crying and asking, "Mother, mother, how are you?"

"Uh-uh" Li Zhengming's mother vomited for a while, and then said weakly: "I don't know, this morning, as usual, I went to the street to fetch water and came back, and after washing, that's it."

My son is not worried, maybe he is suffering from the cold, just rest for a while, it's fine. You go to work, you can't make breakfast today, you eat a little in the kitchen after you get to the restaurant, remember to keep the account, and after the salary is paid, you have to pay it back to the boss. Although our family is poor, we work and eat, and we must not be greedy for other people's cheapness. Got it?"

Li Zhengming nodded vigorously and said, "I know my mother, I remember." ”

Mother Li gently pushed Li Zhengming and said, "It's good to know, go to work quickly, otherwise it'll be too late." ”

Li Zhengming obediently got up and walked two steps, and returned to Li's mother's bed and asked, "Mother, I'm worried about you, are you really fine?" Why don't I go and ask a doctor for you." ”

Mother Li smiled far-fetchedly: "I'm fine, you can go, don't worry about me." ”

"Then I'll go. ”

Li Zhengming packed up his belongings, pushed the door and left the house. The place where Li Zhengming works is not very far from his home, and it only takes 20 minutes to walk to get there.

But today, Li Zhengming only walked for ten minutes, and he couldn't go on. He found a lot of locals on the street, walking and walking, and they vomited profusely, and some even pulled on their pants. Those people had exactly the same symptoms as their mothers.

Li Zhengming usually works as a road hall in a restaurant, and he is relatively well-informed and knows relatively rich things. He had heard of the plague and knew the consequences of it. He sensed that the legendary plague was likely to break out in this Wave Sky City. So he didn't go to the restaurant anymore, but turned to the pharmacy.

When he was about to go out just now, Li Zhengming secretly put the money used to buy rice at home on his body. He thought that after getting off work, he would give his mother some medicine for the wind and cold. But now he has changed his mind. He decided not to go to work in the restaurant now, but to buy medicine and go home immediately.

The situation in the pharmacy made Li Zhengming dumbfounded. The small pharmacy was already crowded with people who came early in him. Crying, noisy, messed up. With great effort, he squeezed into the pharmacy only to find that there was no medicine for sale here.

Even ran a few houses, the situation is the same, Li Zhengming's heart is getting more and more panicked, he has been dependent on his mother since he was a child, there is only such a relative, he can't lose his mother, he swore that he must buy medicine for his mother.

Li Zhengming ran around Langtian City like crazy, he had lived here since he was a child, and he knew that there was a pharmacy there. However, the pharmacy he found was either out of medicine for a long time, or the price of medicine was too expensive, and he and Ben couldn't afford it.

When Li Zhengming was extremely disappointed and panicked, he didn't know who shouted, "The Immortal Bird Legion distributes medicinal soup for free." This sentence, like a drop of nectar, made Li Zhengming see hope, and he quickly rushed to the place where the medicine was distributed

At the place where the medicine was issued, Li Zhengming saw the scene of never seeing life in his life. In the open space in front of this gourd temple, countless cauldrons have been erected, and the fire under the pot is boiling, and the pot exudes a strong medicinal fragrance. Tens of thousands of civilians gathered here, lined up in a long line, and a group of soldiers wearing black military uniforms and carrying epaulettes inlaid with immortal birds on their shoulders maintained order. On the high platform, an officer-like person was shouting with a large paper tube, because there were too many people here, Li Zhengming listened carefully for a while before he could hear clearly, the content of the shouting was -- the Immortal Bird Legion and the people of Langtian were together

In the open space in front of the city lord's mansion, countless cauldrons were also erected, and in front of a pot, Hu Wei personally took a big spoon and distributed medicine soup to the people who came to ask for medicine. He had been dispensing medicine here for more than two hours in a row, and the undead bird uniform on his body was already soaked with sweat.

"Uncle, it's yours, take it, don't spill it. ”

"Young man, does this medicine really work? I have heard that the plague cannot be cured. ”

"Uncle, don't worry, we have a special medicine, I guarantee that you will be fine. ”

"Really?"

"Uncle, of course it's true, do you know who he is, he is the young marshal who is not immortal. ”

"Immortal bird? I've heard the book say, don't you meet an immortal bird, young man, you're the immortal bird?"

"Yes, uncle, I'm just worrying. Come back and drink the medicine. ”

"Okay, good, the immortal bird is good, the immortal bird is not dead, I can't die now"

"Young marshal, I see that you have been busy for a long time, let me do it for you. ”

"Auntie, you can just call me Hu Wei. Don't worry, I'm not tired, our immortal birds are all beaten with iron. Hehe. ”

"The young marshal is really joking. We have an army of immortal birds in Langtian City, and we will not be afraid of anything in the future. ”

"Yes, the Legion of the Immortal Birds, it is the legion of the people, and we will be with the people at all times. ”

When the people heard this, they cried out for joy, and soon resounded throughout the city:

"The Immortal Bird Doesn't Die"

"Long live the immortal birds"
