Chapter 253 The plague in the army

Unknowingly, it was late April, the night before Yang Yuanjing led the army to set off. The city of Lanzhou was like a silent beast, quietly entrenched in the sky and earth, sitting and watching the changes.

With the sound of horse hooves, people and horses gradually approached outside the barracks.

"Uu——"

The horses neighed when the lights were off, and the young men sitting on the horses dismounted neatly. They walked like tigers and tigers, and you could tell at a glance that they were men who had fought on the battlefield.

"Hey, what good stuff did you bring here?"

Hearing the curiosity of the brothers, the man who led the dismounted took off two large cloth bags from the horse's belly, boldly took out two dead deer tied together, and said proudly: "Let's go to the city today.

The outer patrol asked me to bump into these two good things, so how could I let them go? I could just raise my hand and shoot an arrow——"

While he was talking, the man patted the two dead deer proudly and said, "We are not on duty tonight, so we happened to roast them and have a taste of them."

After hearing this, the person who greeted him looked at the fresh deer. Although he was greedy, he still hesitated and said: "The king has an order that soldiers in the army are not allowed to eat wild game without permission. How about we--"

"Shh-"

Hearing this, the person carrying the deer immediately pointed up his finger and responded in a low voice: "We are just a few brothers getting together today to have a drink. If you don't say it, I won't say it, and he won't say it. Who knows? If you don't say it, then...

If you eat some meat, it won’t affect you.”

As he spoke, the man smiled and winked and said, "This is fresh deer blood, don't you want to try it?"

"Hey, I can't even find a beautiful young lady, but after drinking it, I'm rubbing people--"

While that person was still hesitating, another person spoke and made everyone laugh.

"Okay, let's go. It's better to eat meat and drink wine."

While he was talking, several people outside the barracks walked in groups, leaving behind bursts of laughter.



Here, every household in Chang'an City has fallen asleep, and everything is completely silent. Only the lights and the stars in the night are shining brightly.

Luzhu sat alone by the bed, looking at the envelope in her hand. She opened it silently and took out the thin pages inside. When she unfolded it bit by bit and saw every inch of it clearly, her hands could not help but tremble slightly.

If Shangshu Ling knew about this, I'm afraid——

"Squeak——"

Hearing the door being gently opened, Lu Zhu's back straightened instinctively, and she quickly hid the things in her hands under the quilt behind her. When she raised her head, she met Lu Qiao's smiling eyes.

"What are you doing sitting there alone?"

"nothing."

Luzhu supported her panicked body and said with a smile: "You came just as the quilt was being spread."

After that, he changed the subject and said: "Weren't you on night watch? Why are you back?"

"It's still a bit cold tonight, so I'm thinking of adding some clothes."

While talking, Lu Qiao put on her coat and walked towards the incense burner and said, "It has been raining these past few days and the humidity in the room is heavy. I have to light incense. When I was dressing up this morning, I saw something crawling on the dressing table.

A shell insect can scare people out of their wits——"

While talking, Lu Qiao added some incense, then she took the silver spoon for adding incense and lit the green beads and said: "You should turn over the quilt tonight to see if there is anything left. Don't sleep with you -

—”

Hearing Lu Qiao's joke, Lu Zhu reluctantly smiled, but when he saw her approaching figure, he couldn't help but put his hand in and was hidden and hidden by the lieutenant general's letter.

"Okay, I'm leaving, you just need to rest."

Seeing the door being closed and the footsteps gradually fading away, Luzhu breathed a sigh of relief, as if someone who had been suffocating for a long time suddenly got a breather.

However, when it was late at night and Luzhu was already asleep.

Lu Qiao, who was supposed to be on duty at night, pushed the door in again. Smelling the smell of drugs in the air, she hurriedly covered her mouth and nose with a wet handkerchief, closed the door, opened the window, and cautiously approached Lu Zhu's bed.

, rummaged through it carefully.

After searching for a long time with no results, Lu Qiao thought for a moment, then pulled away the brocade quilt on Lu Zhu's body and reached under her pillow. Sure enough, she touched something. When she pulled it out gently, she saw that it was an envelope and quickly

When I pulled out the page, I saw a map. Although I couldn't see any difference, I quickly gathered my thoughts and put the things away and left quietly.

Everything seems to have remained unchanged.

Little do they know that they are like flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water——

Just when Chang'an seemed to be calm, not long after, another shocking conspiracy was brewing in Lanzhou City.

On this day, Zhao Yi was planning in front of the map with his hands behind his hands, but he heard hurried footsteps approaching gradually. The next moment, someone said outside the door: "Your Majesty, I have something important to report."

Zhao Yi looked back after hearing the words, and then calmly said: "Come in."

While he was talking, the visitor had already entered, and Zhao Yi turned around and sat back.

Seeing that the deputy envoy was wearing armor and walking hurriedly, when Zhao Yi was about to ask, the deputy envoy in front of him had already cupped his fists and raised his hands, and said impatiently: "Your Majesty, it's not good, there seems to be a plague spreading in our army.

It’s—”

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yi's eyebrows suddenly deepened, and his face became unspeakably serious.

The plague is as ferocious as a tiger, and now we are facing a formidable enemy. If it is really a plague, once it spreads, it will definitely cause confusion and panic. This series of consequences is not something that anyone can bear easily.

Gu Chu

At this moment, seeing the rare frown on Zhao Yi's face, the Deputy Envoy naturally understood this.

No matter what in this world, he believed that King Yuling could reverse it.

But he didn't know about fate except destiny——

This, what should I do?

"Has the accompanying medical officer diagnosed and treated you?"

Hearing Zhao Yi's question, the deputy envoy nodded quickly and said: "General Chang's soldiers have the most illnesses. At this moment, he has taken the medical officer there -"

"That means it's not confirmed yet?"

While he was talking, the noisy footsteps and noises started again, but within a moment, General Chang Huan strode in dragging a medical officer like he was putting out a fire.

"Your Majesty, this general is guilty. Please punish me, Your Majesty!"

Seeing the panting and sweating medical officer, Zhao Yi asked Chang Huan, "How is the diagnosis and treatment?"

Upon hearing the inquiry, Chang Huan looked guilty and uneasy, and immediately punched the dumbfounded medical officer beside him with his elbow. He was so strong that he almost pushed him out.

"Back, back to the king——"

The medical officer trembled at this shock, quickly suppressed his panic, and said with sweat: "The official has just investigated, and it is indeed a plague this time."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. Even Zhao Yi's pupils shrank slightly.

"What caused it?"

When the medical officer heard this, he also looked embarrassed and said: "After investigation, it seems that the patient accidentally ate unclean game, so-"

"His grandma's!"

Before he finished speaking, Chang Huan was so angry that he cursed: "It's all because of the general's inability to manage the army that he allowed those ignorant bastards to hunt and eat wild game in private——"

"Eat, eat, eat, eat those bastards to death. They all deserve this. Taking medicine is a waste. If it harms this battle and harms the king, even beating them to death is not an exaggeration!"

"alright."

Seeing that the impatient Chang Huan was so angry that he wanted to kill those people with a stick immediately, Zhao Yi raised his hand and said: "What's the situation now?"

"Back to your Majesty, there are six people at the source of this plague. However, due to the long incubation period of this disease, there will be no symptoms in the early stage, so up to now, more than a hundred people have been infected in just three days -"

In just three days, more than a hundred people were infected, so violently——

"Isolate the infected soldiers immediately."

After that, Zhao Yi solemnly ordered: "We will build the hospital within two days as a residence for the quarantined soldiers, and allocate medical officers and guards at the same time. No one is allowed to enter or leave without my warrant. You must go outside the hospital within a day."

Smoke mugwort everywhere every day as a precaution!"

"You must immediately come up with prescriptions for treatment and epidemic prevention."

Upon hearing Zhao Yi's arrangement, the medical officer quickly nodded in agreement.

"Within two days, once the prescription is given, the soldiers will be required to drink it on time every day. Anyone who disobeys will be punished according to military law."

"yes!"

"This order will be communicated to the entire army immediately."

Seeing that everyone in front of him was following it, Zhao Yi just said: "This matter is related to the overall situation, you must take it seriously——"

However, when talking about the general situation, Zhao Yi suddenly coughed violently, as if he was furious. Chang Huan and others were so shocked that they quickly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty."

When Zhao Yi saw this, he was about to wave his hand, but suddenly thought of something, and looked at the medical officer with an unusually serious look in his eyes.

When the medical officer suddenly understood, he was even more shocked. He quickly stepped forward to check Zhao Yi's pulse, but his hand shook.

"Great, great king——"

"impossible!"

Before he could say anything, Chang Huan rushed to grab the medical officer. Unexpectedly, before he came closer, Zhao Yi raised his arms to block him.

"From now on, I will be isolated here, and you all will step back!"

"King!"

Ignoring Chang Huan's anxious red eyes, Zhao Yi turned to the medical officer and said, "From today on, you will stay here to diagnose and treat me."

After saying that, Zhao Yi looked at Chang Huan and the deputy envoy below and said, "Go back immediately and let the medical officer diagnose and treat you. There must be no mistakes!"

"Your Majesty——"
