Chapter 143: Intrigue and Intrigues
According to Qin Hongyun's idea, Gao Tianjian would come to attack the camp on the night of the defeat, and specially arranged for this, however, after waiting all night, he didn't see him coming.
A week later, there was still no movement on the side of Fusang Kingdom, and the Ming army only said that they were really scared and had retreated, and they couldn't help but relax a little.
On the eighth day, there was a light rain, and although it was spring, the rain still made people feel cold to the bone. Ordinary people are okay, they can wear all the cold things on their bodies, but the soldiers can't, because they want to protect their families and defend the country, not only can they not leave their posts, but their lives are in danger all the time, so their armor cannot be taken off for a moment.
In the middle of the night, the cold wind was biting, and most of the soldiers had already fallen asleep, only some soldiers were standing guard in front of the camp, and they were all shivering in the cold wind. Although there is a bonfire, it does not burn vigorously, and the heat provided is minimal.
Sitting at the head of the campfire was a large man, holding a spear in his right hand, while his left hand was constantly stroking his belly, and his face was full of resentment.
A dark-faced soldier beside the big man touched him with his arm and smiled maliciously, "What's wrong? Hungry again?"
When the big man heard this, the resentment on his face became even stronger, and he said, "Just like that, there is no oil and water, so it's strange if you are not hungry." ”
Across from him was a thin man, known as a monkey, who rubbed his hands together and said, "What's the solution? Although it is spring now, it is still cold and snowy, and there is not a living creature in the field." ”
The big man's eyes lit up, and when it came to living creatures, he knew that there were many snow hares around here, so he planned to try his luck and said, "You guys are here for a while, and I'll go and solve it." ”
He walked to a secluded place to relieve himself, and then followed the path to see if he could come across anything to satisfy his hunger, and he was not bad luck, and soon he came across a living creature. Overjoyed, he carefully touched it, only to find that the living creature was actually a bamboo rat, the size of an adult cat. He couldn't help but salivate at the thought of the delicious taste after roasting, and his tongue subconsciously licked his chapped lips.
The bamboo rat seemed to be frozen to death, and when he saw him passing, he didn't run. Without much effort, he picked up a bamboo rat and immediately walked towards the camp.
The soldiers by the campfire, seeing that he had finished a small relief and brought a bamboo rat in his hand, were a little stunned, and then they greeted him with a smile, and when they thought of the deliciousness, no one questioned the unknown origin of this thing.
The big man said: "Our brothers are very blessed, they can actually eat this kind of thing that only dignitaries can eat in this icy and snowy season." ”
When everyone was echoing one after another, the dark-skinned man frowned and said, "This thing is rare, but when you eat it, the taste is inevitably too big, which wakes up the Inspector and General Qin, I'm afraid that we won't be able to eat it and go around." ”
As soon as he said this, everyone fell silent, and after a while, the big man raised his head again and said loudly, "Do you know how to call the flower chicken?"
"Who doesn't know, first wrap it in lotus leaves, then wrap it in yellow mud, and then roast it, what's wrong?" everyone said.
"That's right, it's wrapped in yellow mud. The big man said, "If you wrap it in yellow mud, you don't have to worry about the fragrance spreading too far." ”
When the people made up their minds, they stopped being half-hearted, and immediately slaughtered, washed, and skinned, and then wrapped in yellow mud and roasted.
A quarter of an hour later, even through the yellow mud, everyone smelled an extremely strong fragrance, and they couldn't help it anymore, and they all stepped forward to clean it up.
A few days later, there was still no movement on the side of Fusang Kingdom, and Yuan Chonghuan guessed that they were plotting, so he asked Qin Hongyun to discuss countermeasures.
But before he could discuss the reason, a soldier hurriedly ran over, ran in without even knocking on the door, and then bowed down and said loudly: "Two generals, something is wrong. ”
"What's the matter? Could it be that Gao Tianjian brought someone to call?" Qin Hongyun and Yuan Chonghuan glanced at each other, and then said in unison.
The soldier shook his head and replied, "No, it's the men who guard the battalion, and they all started vomiting and diarrhea for some reason, and they also had a lot of pimples on their faces. ”
Yuan Chonghuan frowned and reprimanded: "Vomiting up and down, it's just an occasional cold, is this also worth reporting to me?"
Qin Hongyun also frowned, and said, "Supervisor, I don't think this matter is so simple, if you feel the wind chill occasionally, how can you all get sick? ”
Yuan Chonghuan doesn't understand medical skills, so it is understandable to make such a judgment, but Qin Hongyun is different, he is proficient in medical skills, and when he heard it, he felt that the symptoms of those people were not normal.
"Oh, Brother Qin still knows medical skills?" said Yuan Chonghuan with a smile.
Qin Hongyun said: "I just know a little bit about it. ”
"Then let's go check it out. Yuan Chonghuan smiled, and then waved his hand to the kneeling soldier, motioning for him to lead the way.
The man replied yes, got up, and walked out, and then made a turn and came to a rather secret tent.
Qin Hongyun opened the curtain first and walked in, and then frowned because of the filthy air in it, so he simply hung the curtain.
Qin Hongyun saw that there were seven or eight big men lying on the ground, and the symptoms of these people were all the same, so I saved Qin Hongyun a lot of effort.
He walked up to the nearest person, and saw that his face was sallow and extremely weak, and when he opened his eyelids, he saw mostly the whites of his eyes.
This person is the eldest son, who has always been as healthy as an ox on weekdays, Qin Hongyun can't be sure why he became like this based on these two points alone, even if he has a pulse.
After a while, his face suddenly turned ugly, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Yuan Chonghuan also following in, and said, "Supervisor, you can wait for me outside." ”
Yuan Chonghuan stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he walked out without saying anything.
After nearly a quarter of an hour, Qin Hongyun had confidence in his heart, stuffed the big man's hand into the quilt, and then walked out.
Yuan Chonghuan greeted him and said, "What the hell is going on?"
Qin Hongyun's face was never more solemn, and he said, "Immediately isolate these people, and isolate them from those who come into contact with them." Where are they the wind and cold, it is clearly the plague. ”
When Yuan Chonghuan heard the word plague, his face became ugly, and he immediately called a cronie to do what Qin Hongyun said, and then asked: "There has been no plague in Daming for many years, how can it be ...... now?"
Qin Hongyun's eyes narrowed, and then said: "This kind of plague is different from what happened in the Central Plains in the past, if my guess is correct, this must be the ghost of those thieves." ”
