Fenghou

Chapter 1500
On the grassland to the north of Yanshan Road, a cavalry force of [-] was marching northward, and behind them, [-] camels followed fast with food and medicinal materials on their backs.

This cavalry force of 3 men was the army led by Niu Gao. He received an emergency military order from King Yong and immediately set off with 3 men. They had been walking for seven days and were not far from Linhuang Mansion.

Along the way, they didn't encounter any cavalry or herdsmen from the Kret tribe. Shao Jichun's bloodbath on several Kret tribes before was very effective. The herdsmen of the Kret tribe were frightened and fled westward, trying to stay away from the brutal and bloody West. military.

Marching all the way on the vast grassland, Niu Gao was also extremely anxious. Although the capital of the Kingdom of Jin moved very slowly, they would send troops to attack Linhuang City first. Linhuang City only had Wang Duo's [-] troops. Will they resist? live?

The army marched for another day and night, and at dusk on the eighth day, the scouts sent earlier returned.

"Reporting to Niu Dutong, the scouts sent by General Wang Duo to the outskirts have discovered the Jurchen army two hundred miles away, about tens of thousands of people, and they are also heading towards Linhuang Mansion."

Niu Gao was startled, and hurriedly asked: "When did it happen?"

"Just yesterday, they sent it by Eagle!"

Niu Gao quickly calculated the distance comparison in his mind, they were still [-] miles away from Linhuang City, and the other party was about [-] miles away, or a little less.

He originally wanted to arrange for the soldiers to camp and rest, but now he couldn't care less, and immediately said: "Send the order, speed up the march!"

Niu Gao walked up to the top of the city, looked at the spacious city and asked, "How many people are there in the city now?"

Thinking of this matter, Wan Yanquan gritted his teeth with hatred, his ancestor's foundation was lost by his torment.

Wanyan Quan closed her eyes and lay down on the carpet without speaking. Pei Manshi gritted her teeth with hatred, wishing she could rush up to punch and kick her, so she could only sit by the window and sulk.

"It's the same. Disinfect in the outer city, and then go to the courtyard on the edge of the city to isolate yourself for five days. If there is no problem, you will come out. You will strictly follow the defense regulations formulated by King Yong."

Wang Duo came to greet the arrival of the chief general Niu Gao, Niu Gao anxiously asked: "How is the situation of the enemy army?"

Although this is the case, Niu Gao still can't be careless. Many things do not change according to people's will. Even if the Kingdom of Jin does not spread the plague, there is no guarantee that the epidemic will not happen.

Niu Gao was not worried about Wang Duo's execution ability, even King Yong was impressed by his prudence and earnestness.

On the same day, the Western Army began to make decoctions for the soldiers and the people in the city to drink to prevent the plague. The military doctors also conducted epidemic prevention training for the governor Xiao Wanmu and the officials and servants, and then they went to train the people together. The core is three points, drink Boil water, wash your hands frequently, wear a mask, and report immediately if you find someone vomiting or diarrhea!
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians of the Kingdom of Jin moved westward, and the team moved very slowly. They not only had a huge amount of material wealth to carry, but also many old and weak women and children. There were thousands of court ladies, eunuchs, and guards around Emperor Wanyanquan. People, except for the emperor who rides in a cart pulled by twenty horses, the other eunuchs and palace ladies walk on foot, and the march is really slow.

At this time, the Empress Pei Man who was beside him snorted and said, "Is Your Majesty just watching Dajin Jiangshan being mourned by him?"

"Even if you don't do anything, he will still kill you. You might as well put all your eggs in one basket and fight him. There is still hope of redemption!"

Niu Gao nodded, "20 troops are enough, as long as there are enough iron fire mines and fire oil, we will not be afraid of [-] Jurchen troops attacking the city!"

It was finally dawn, and the soldiers who had rested overnight also recovered their strength. All the soldiers got busy and moved food and medicinal materials into the warehouse. Now that the supplies were sufficient, they didn't have to worry about it even if they besieged the city for half a year.

"The humble staff think they should be preparing siege weapons, because there is a large forest where they are stationed, and then there are no trees, it is all grassland, and the scouts say they are logging a lot!"

After taking power, after a lot of tossing, the entire Jin Kingdom was wiped out. Although the epidemic is a natural disaster, is it not a man-made disaster?If he hadn't gathered all the people of the Kingdom of Jin to Shangjing, how could the plague in Xinzhou spread to the capital?

Originally, there were tens of thousands of craftsmen in the Kingdom of Jin, but most of them were Han Chinese. Among them, 3000% of the craftsmen were in Daxing Mansion, 200% of the craftsmen were in Jinzhou and Liaoyang Mansions, and only [-]% of the craftsmen were in Shangjing. , but a plague killed half of the craftsmen, and there were hundreds of people who were not dead, but were infected with the disease and could not follow them. In the end, there were only [-] people left.

Wang Duo said worriedly: "Dutong, I am most worried about whether the golden soldiers will use the plague to attack us. Once the plague breaks out in the city, it will be a disaster for us!"

Wang Duo was stunned, "It's still His Highness who sees it clearly!"

"Why is that?" Niu Gao asked puzzled.

Pei Manshi is also a formidable person. She persuaded the emperor Wanyan Quan several times to contact the old generals, buy the core generals, and overthrow Wanyan Wushu, but Wanyan Quan just remained indifferent, which really made her anxious, but there was nothing she could do.

． ． ． ． ． ． ．

Wanyan Wushu, this idiot and reckless man, only knows how to lead troops to fight, only to toss, and doesn't know how to govern the country at all. He criticizes himself for his inaction all day long, but he doesn't understand that when the national power declines, he needs to recuperate.

"Has there been an epidemic in the city?" Niu Gao asked.

At present, the emperor Wanyan Quan has been completely dismissed, he was really depressed and angry, but he didn't dare to show it, he already felt that Wanyan Wushu had a murderous intent on him.

Wanyan Quan said coldly: "He's just looking for an excuse to kill me! If you're not worried, just try it."

Of course, they are not in a hurry, Linhuang Mansion is still in the hands of the Western Army, and the army still needs to take Linhuang Mansion back.

Not only the men and horses were exhausted, but also the camels were exhausted, but the general did not allow a rest, so all the horses and camels had to continue marching vigorously.

Niu Gao nodded, and immediately said: "In that case, unload all the camels and send [-] cavalry to escort the camel team back to Yanshan overnight!"

It was difficult to feed [-] camels in the city, so Niu Gao's decision was wise. At the fourth watch, the camels and [-] camel drivers who took a rest set off south again under the escort of [-] cavalry.

"Less than 10,000, all of them are Han and Khitan. Others, including 1+ Jurchens and Khitans in various counties, were afraid of the epidemic. Under our persuasion, they all went to Yanshan Mansion. The humble official sent [-] troops to guard. If Counting the [-] troops who escorted the camels south last night, there are only [-] troops left in the city."

"Reporting to Dutong, the enemy army has set up a large camp fifty miles away, and no longer march."

At two o'clock in the night, [-] troops and [-] camels finally arrived at Linhuang City.

Niu Gao smiled slightly and said: "His Royal Highness told me not to worry about this issue. The Kingdom of Jin is looking for a place without plague, and they want to create another plague in Linhuang City, so what's the point of their coming here?" ? It doesn’t matter if we die, but the Kingdom of Jin is about to be destroyed.”

Wang Duo shook his head, ""So far no epidemic has been found. We are very cautious. The gates of the city have been closed to prevent people and businessmen from outside the city from entering. We have also built urns at the north and south gates. Even if we come to send sheep, the sheep will come in. People stay in the urn city. "

Hundreds of military doctors who came with the army also checked the epidemic in the city.

"Where are the scout soldiers coming back?"

Wanyan Wushu's forward [-] troops have already arrived fifty miles away from Linhuang City. Wang Duo's judgment is correct. The task of this vanguard army is to prepare siege weapons. The Jin Kingdom moved westward in a hurry, and there was no time to build siege weapons. All the siege weapons in stock were given to Wanyan Nianhan, and they were all stored in the Jinzhou warehouse. Before they were used, they were seized by the Western Army.

They had no choice but to build it temporarily. Along with the 1000 army, there were [-] to [-] craftsmen. These were the last craftsmen in the Kingdom of Jin.

The most miserable ones were gunpowder makers and firearms makers. The entire army was wiped out, and the iron fire thunder that Wanyan Wushu had been thinking about was completely gone.

Veteran Suoli Yishi is the leader of this vanguard army. On the one hand, he sent soldiers to cut down trees to obtain materials. On the other hand, he urged the craftsmen to be busy day and night to make simple and practical siege ladders. Fortunately for the plague, after leaving Shangjing, the soldiers never fell ill again, which made him very grateful.

Of course, this is mainly due to the joint isolation method of the imperial doctor Pucha Baoping. If one person is sick, the soldiers in the entire tent must be isolated. In a few days, the spread of the plague in the army was gradually brought under control.

At this time, a soldier came to report, and the prison prince came.
