Qi Bao'er did not embarrass a few patrolmen and left after asking a few questions. The county magistrate, who came in a hurry without fastening his belt, could not even see Qi Bao'er's face.
Unlike the patrol captain who was secretly glad that the man finally left, the Bacheng County magistrate was regretful and stomped on the city wall: "Why, why did you leave again overnight?"
It was not that he wanted to curry favor with the princess or anything, but that all their officials in the south had already received spies from the imperial court, and Princess Anle was the relief envoy for this disaster.
Now that he, Bacheng, has become the last line of defense against the plague, he seems calm on the surface, but he is really unsure in his heart!
The grain in the granary is limited, the medicinal materials are also limited, and the doctor's ability is even more limited.
If the disaster relief team and the imperial doctors don't come again, he really won't be able to hold on anymore.
"My lord, the princess left a message. She said to ask your lord to find a way to hold on for a month. At the latest, the disaster relief team will arrive in Bacheng, and the imperial doctor will also arrive at that time."
"That's good, that's good."
Damn it, okay, one month, how can he last?
But in front of these soldiers who came to support him, he had to hold his ground. If Lieutenant General Li noticed it and withdrew his troops, Bacheng would really be undefendable.
The county magistrate of Bacheng did a good job. Although the city was sealed, he did not give up on the victims, and the prefect of Haicheng also mobilized the garrison to come to support.
Qi Bao'er had nothing to worry about, so he returned to the cave, picked up Doctor Shi and his disciples, and started on the road again.
Now, Pingyuanguan and Lingnan are the top priorities.
Fortunately, both Divine Doctor Shi and Shui Qing are people who care about the world and understand the importance of the world. Although they are still sleepy and tired, they did not complain. It is good to be able to sleep for such a while, so I will send you an urgent battle report from 800 miles.
The soldiers were constantly changing horses along the way.
Well, the main reason was that they couldn't complain anymore. This time they completely overcame their fear of high speeds. Even if they were tied up and speeding in the wind, they could sleep with their mouths open and stagger around.
In order to prevent the two of them from falling asleep, Qi Baoer had to use his entire spiritual power shield to block the wind for them.
-
Pingyuan Pass.
The situation here is more serious than Qi Baoer and the others imagined.
Those wicked things in Arakawa are so inhumane. They didn't just throw in a few corpses that died of the epidemic, but hundreds of them.
The Arakan people were so powerful that they didn't even need to use trebuchets. That day, the huge stone city wall was like a rain of rain.
What's even worse is that many of the corpses have already rotted, and as soon as they hit the ground... bang~
The ground inside the city wall and above the city wall were 'exploded' everywhere.
None of the soldiers guarding the city wall were spared.
Not only that, anyone who was close to that area at that time, even if they didn't touch those things, was still infected with the disease, and it was only classified in severity.
It took two days for military doctors to conclude that the disease could be spread through the air.
Airborne diseases, two days!!!
The current Zhennan Army is no longer infected with the disease as they knew, with 20,000 people, but more than half, nearly 700,000 soldiers were infected with the disease, and the death toll exceeded 20,000.
.
Vice General Sun has returned to Pingyuan Pass, including His Royal Highness the Prince, who has recovered from his illness.
Oh, another important thing is that Vice Admiral Sun has also contracted the epidemic. Although he is currently lying in his own camp, his camp has also been quarantined.
Now all matters concerning Pingyuan Pass are temporarily in the hands of His Highness the Crown Prince.
"Cough~~~"
Amidst the muffled coughs, Jun Chenyuan was standing in front of the sand table, covering his mouth.
Chen Yi hurried in and said, "Your Highness, the Huangqian Army is approaching another twenty miles."
Regardless of the harsh living conditions over there in Huangqian, people can still give birth, and the area with water sources is about the size of Yingzhou, but the total population is more than five times that of Yingzhou.
The total population of Yingzhou is about 8 million, and Huangchan has a population of more than 400 to 200 adults.
However, within eight million miles of the Qilin Kingdom, there are millions of soldiers standing up to the sky.
As for Huang Qian, it is not true to say that all the people can be soldiers. Both men and women are tall and strong. It is true that there are not enough soldiers for the common people to raise them.
Fortunately, the Huangchan people are not very smart. They fight purely by rushing, arranging troops, and so on. That does not exist.
There are gods and men in the Qilin Kingdom, and it is not a problem to pick out many gods to defeat a hundred.
With the protection of the huge stone city wall, Huangqian has been blocked from Lingnan.
But this time, it was clear that there was a wise guy in Huangqian's army, and this person was really insidious. He first used the epidemic to weaken the strength of the Zhennan Army, and then led nearly two million soldiers towards
Coming from Pingyuan Pass.
Moreover, the Huangqian Army was not as brutal as before this time. Instead of charging in with a roar, they stopped and waited for the Zhennan Army to slowly reduce its numbers due to the epidemic.
Jun Chenyuan suppressed a few more coughs before asking: "How far is it?"
Chen Yi glanced at him worriedly and lowered his eyes, "It's still about eighty miles away from Pingyuan Pass."
If you hurry, you can reach Pingyuan Pass in just one day.
There are less than 600,000 soldiers in Pingyuan Pass who can still fight. Thirty-two of the forty-three divine men have fallen.
The worst thing is that many military doctors have also contracted the disease, and there are less than ten military advisers still standing.
Pingyuan Pass is in danger this time!
It's not that Chen Yi has not persuaded the prince to leave, but the prince escaped from Lingnan City and even Pingyuan Pass.
Yes, our Crown Prince, who had such a miserable journey, also contracted the epidemic after arriving at Pingyuan Pass.
It's just that the army can't be without a leader. Vice General Sun fell down in public at that time and couldn't hide it. Naturally, the prince's illness can no longer be known to others.
"Is there any spy coming from the imperial court?"
Chen lowered his head even lower, "Nothing."
Like the prince, he did not believe that the emperor would not send troops or doctors to support him when he received the request for help from Pingyuan Pass.
There is no news from the court yet, which can only mean that the news from Pingyuan Pass was intercepted by someone.
"Your Highness..."
Jun Chenyuan raised his hand to block it, "Chen Yi, I am the prince and the heir apparent. Anyone can abandon Pingyuan Pass at this time, but I can't."
Chen Yi suppressed the sadness in his heart and smiled an uglier smile, "Your Highness, your subordinates will be wherever you are."
Jun Chenyuan looked at Chen Yi with slightly red eyes, opened his mouth and finally only sighed.
Before the two of them had time to say, "You are thick, I am thick," there was a roaring sound outside.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack~"
Enemy attack?
Arakaki's vanguard army has arrived?
Chen rushed out of the tent in a hurry.
As soon as he came out of the tent, he was stunned.
Is this a magic code thing?
So dark, so tall, so big!
Tiger?
But the tiger’s teeth don’t seem so cruel, right?
All of them are oversized saws.
Looking next to Dahei, who doesn't know what to do, he looks like an acquaintance, uh, a familiar wolf.
"Stop, stop, our own people, uh, that's not right, our own wolves, uh, that's not right either, it's our own side anyway."
The soldier who was holding a long wooden warehouse to attack the Black Tiger King was yelled at and was a little confused. What did the guard Chen say?
They were all doubtful. Is this monster from their side?
