Although they have not yet approached the core position of Jiangnan Road along the way, their current location is mostly relying on Shannan Road and has not yet gone deep into Jiangnan Road.

However, even so, they saw smallpox patients in the several villages they visited.

That scene!
It was really a neat and tidy death for Zhuangzi.

terror!
Blast!

Scared!
If you are infected, even the medicine prescribed by the Imperial Medical Bureau will be of no use.

No one dares to guarantee that they will be safe if they are infected with smallpox.

"Sir, this..."

The servant also hesitated.

"Sir, let's not go."

"Tanzhou Prefecture..."

"call!!"

"Sir, General Li is in charge there. Besides, it is also the central area of ​​​​the whole Tianhua area. Sir, you are going to Hongdu Mansion to preside over the affairs of the Dao."

"I am not afraid, but, sir, if something unexpected happens and the trip is delayed, it will be a big trouble for Jiangnan Road."

"Thousands and thousands of people in Jiangnan Road are all looking forward to your Excellency mobilizing the troops in Jiangnan Road as soon as possible."

The servant said in a deep voice.

Although he knew that Tanzhou Prefecture was not far to the south, he was unwilling to let Fang Xuanling go there.

Fang Xuanling nodded slightly when he heard this.

"Too."

"With the pharmacist here, some things can be calmed down."

"alright."

"Let's go directly to Hongzhou Prefecture."

"This Wang Zhengli is really a coward. He is a provincial governor, but he has become a coward. How can he behave like this?"

"In such a critical situation, you don't care about the lives of the people. Don't let this damn thing fall into my hands, otherwise, I will definitely make him pay!"

As Fang Xuanling spoke, he became emotional and growled, "Pass the order down, speed up, and head straight to Hongzhou Prefecture!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Seeing that Fang Xuanling had given up the idea of ​​going to Tanzhou Prefecture, the servants hurriedly shouted, and the guards walked even harder than before.

But, just at this time.

Boom, boom, boom….
A group of horses rushed towards them!

No, to be precise, he should have rushed towards Chang'an, but met them on the official road.

"Get out of the way, everyone!"

"It's urgent, it's urgent, if you don't want to die, get out of here, get out!"

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! The person in front, get out of the way! Otherwise, I will kill you all!"

This group of people were even more excited. Even from a long distance away, several of them were shouting with hoarse and torn throats, and the sound spread throughout the entire official road. Naturally, this made Fang Xuanling frown slightly.

The servant next to him snorted coldly and waved his hand, and all the Jinwu guards around were on full alert!
Let them give way?
joke!

Don't you see who is sitting in the carriage? He is Lord Fang Xuanling. To be honest, he is second only to the emperor and is above everyone else. Moreover, this time he is urgently supporting the leader of Jiangnan Province in eradicating smallpox.

Who could, who dared, be so presumptuous in front of Fang Xuanling?

Of course this guy is not afraid at all!
The fox is best at taking advantage of the tiger's might!
However, the other side is not easy to deal with either. Obviously, they are extremely anxious and they don't seem to slow down at all. It seems that they are going to force a collision.

"damn it!"

"Prepare to defend against the enemy!"

"Poor mountains and bad waters give rise to unruly people. Sir, I didn't expect that we would encounter such a bully as soon as we entered Jiangnan Road. It seems that this time, in addition to smallpox, these bullies and outlaws will also be dealt with."

The servant shouted immediately.

But Fang Xuanling didn't move at all.

He stood up and looked at the group of people from a distance.

Gently, frowned.

“Eh…”

The next moment, Fang Xuanling's eyes widened.

"That is…."

"Is that the pharmacist's personal guard?"

"Get out of the way, get out of the way."

As the other party got closer and closer, Fang Xuanling finally confirmed his identity. He hurriedly jumped off the carriage and walked to the front of the team.

“Slow! Slow! Slow!!”

he yelled.

The surrounding Jinwu Guards also hurriedly stood beside Fang Xuanling.

If anything happened to Fang Xuanling at this time, to be honest, they, the Jinwu Guards, really could not take the responsibility.

In addition, as the most elite guards of the Tang Dynasty, they did not wear the armor of light in vain. On the contrary, they were somewhat excited by the enemy's aggressive approach.

Want to touch it?
They were delighted!

"Is it the pharmacist's personal guard?"

"It's the pharmacist's personal guard!"

"I am Fang Xuanling!"

"Quick, tell them who we are!"

Fang Xuanling shouted hurriedly.

The Jinwu Guards nearby all started shouting at once.

"We are Lord Fang Xuanling here. Are you General Li's personal guards?"

"Lord Fang has been ordered to guard Jiangnan Road and head to Hongdu Prefecture. Slow down and don't bump into him!"

"Lord Fang is asking you, are you General Li's personal guards? Lord Fang wants you to stop!"

The Jinwu Guards roared repeatedly.

Fang Xuanling clenched his fists tightly. For some reason, he felt a trace of fear in his heart!
As expected, the other party suddenly became quiet after hearing the three words "Fang Xuanling".

"Is it Lord Fang? Lord Fang is here? We are General Li's personal guards. Lord Fang, Lord Fang, please save my Lord!"

"Sir, Sir Fang, we are General Li's personal guards. Something bad has happened! Sir Fang, please go to Tanzhou Prefecture immediately!"

"It's really Lord Fang, there's hope, Lord Fang, Lord Fang, hurry up! My general is dying!"

The other side's cavalry team, which was running fast, suddenly slowed down. Everyone was breathing rapidly, and some even cried.

Fang Xuanling's breathing was rapid.

His teeth clenched swiftly.

Da da da!
The cavalry slowed down, and all of a sudden, all the soldiers jumped off their horses and knelt in front of Fang Xuanling.

"What's going on, what's going on?"

"Speak slowly, speak slowly!"

"What is going on? Pharmacist, what happened to the pharmacist?"

Fang Xuanling couldn't wait and shouted directly.

He is anxious!
I was really anxious.

It seems that something big has happened in Tanzhou Prefecture again!

In other words, the most terrifying thought also appeared in his mind, that is, Li Jing was also infected with smallpox!

No! No! No!
It shouldn’t be like this, it shouldn’t be like this!
Won't! Won't! Won't!

Absolutely not! Fang Xuanling prayed in his heart, staring at the group of soldiers who were exhausted and extremely anxious.

His heart was about to jump out.

This is the worst news. Even if smallpox is handed over to the Imperial Medical Bureau, there is no way to cure it.

Gudong!

Fang Xuanling swallowed angrily.

"Master Fang, Master Fang, my general, my general... has been infected with smallpox, has been infected with smallpox!"

"Master Fang, please, you must save my general. My general is in a bad condition, Master Fang..."

The adjutant burst into tears.

Pear blossoms bring rain.

They were crying and snotting, unable to hold back their worries over the past few days.

"The general, Lord Fang, has actually been infected for a while, but the general did not want to distract His Majesty, and the situation in Tanzhou Prefecture was too complicated and too busy, so the general could not spare any time to recuperate, and now he is almost dying."

"We, we also went behind the general's back to ask the imperial physician for help, and to ask His Majesty to think of a way to save the general!"

"Yes, Lord Fang, yes, Lord Fang, please, Lord Fang, please save the general, please save the general!"

"...."

The other kneeling guards of Li Jing were also crying and begging. Fang Xuanling felt dizzy and breathless at this moment!

It's true!
It's true!
It’s true!!

The corner of Fang Xuanling's mouth twitched. The next moment, he felt a black screen in front of his eyes. His whole body staggered and he could hardly stand.

Boom!

Click! !
In fact, it was not just Fang Xuanling. This news was like a spring thunder, which directly shocked the Jinwu Guards.

How come they haven't heard of Li Jing's name?

It can be said that he is the god in the hearts of all the soldiers in the Tang Dynasty!

But now….
But now!

General Li, you have been infected with smallpox and are dying?
This news stunned countless people here, and the atmosphere was dead silent.

The sound was quiet, as if the world had ended.

Li Jing, God of War!
Li Junshen also contracted smallpox? Rather, he was already on the verge of death?
Oh my God!
Oh my God!
Oh My God! !

This….
Fang Xuanling's eyes suddenly turned red.

He took a deep breath and his mind went blank.

He swallowed hard, and his breathing exploded.

The servant next to him supported him.

The servant bit his lips tightly at this time and didn't say anything else. He knew that he had to go to Tanzhou Prefecture at this time.

Lord Fang, how could you just stand by and watch someone die? How could you just watch General Li Jing die in Tanzhou Prefecture?
This is the military god of the Tang Dynasty!
Countless exploding and terrifying waves were stirring in everyone's hearts!
Has the situation in Tanzhou Prefecture and Jiangnan Road really become this bad?

damn it!
Damn it!
"How could this happen? How could this happen?"

"Pharmacist, pharmacist..."

Fang Xuanling's voice was in disarray.

"Quick, quick, make way, make way, go to Chang'an immediately."

"Tell His Majesty this news. Everyone else, follow me to Tanzhou Prefecture!"

"Follow me to Tanzhou Prefecture!"

"Hurry up!"

Without hesitation, Fang Xuanling roared out.

In fact, when he came to Jiangnan Road this time, he had already made up his mind that the worst that could happen was that he would die here.

Now, Li Jing, an old friend of more than ten years, is on the verge of death. Even if the sky falls, Fang Xuanling has to go and see him!
Sometimes, some decisions are neither right nor wrong!

Besides, Tanzhou Prefecture is the center of Jiangnan Road at the moment. Li Jing has fallen again. If there is no one to serve as the backbone, Tanzhou Prefecture will be gone!

It's really all over!

If you go by yourself, maybe Tanzhou Prefecture can still be saved!
Fang Xuanling shook his head vigorously to keep himself somewhat awake.

He rushed directly to a war horse, rode on it, and rushed towards Tanzhou Prefecture.

Others, followed closely behind.

At this point, no matter what you say, it's useless.

Go on!

I have no choice but to go!

Li Jing is about to die, and they still have a reason to retreat?

And Li Jing's personal guards also suddenly stood up and set off in a hurry, rushing all the way to Chang'an!
Boom boom boom boom...

The earth trembled.

The sound of horse hooves resounded between heaven and earth.

Fang Xuanling looked exhausted, his entire body covered with dust, his hair was disheveled, his breathing was rapid, and his eyes were red.

Three days!

After three days, he was finally about to arrive at Tanzhou Prefecture.

The huge dark city ahead is the city of Tanzhou.

But now, Fang Xuanling stood on his horse in front of the city, looking at the dead silence all around him, and took a deep breath.

Tanzhou Prefecture City!

If he didn't know that this was Tanzhou Prefecture, to be honest, he really thought this was a wasteland, a wasteland!

It’s so scary, it’s really so scary!

Along the way, he hardly saw any other civilians.

Almost all the convoys we encountered were transported by the government.

But, ordinary people; there is not a single one.

Moreover, as they got closer to Tanzhou Prefecture, Fang Xuanling's heart bled with every manor and small town he passed.

Crazy bleeding!

It seems that the entire Tanzhou Prefecture has fallen.

Now, Li Jing is in the city of Tanzhou Prefecture. This city of Tanzhou Prefecture has probably already become a den of dragons and tigers, comparable to a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire!

hiss….
But Fang Xuanling knew that he had to go!
Otherwise, Tanzhou City will be a real dead city.

The pharmacist has fallen, and it is estimated that the prefect of Tanzhou Prefecture has also fallen. This is the first line of defense against smallpox. The imperial doctors here, the various teams here, and the people who are eagerly waiting for the court all need someone to command. Otherwise, this place is really completely left to God.

However, Fang Xuanling would not allow these lives to be abandoned.

Fang Xuanling took a deep breath and glanced at the team following him.

"Everyone!"

"We once fought in bloody battles, through wind and rain, but even so, we managed to make it through."

"Now, there are no swords and arrows ahead, but the situation ahead is still terrifying!"

"But, we cannot retreat. We are the people's last line of defense. His Majesty has entrusted this matter to us, and we cannot let His Majesty down!"

"Tanzhou Prefecture is also the Tanzhou Prefecture of the Tang Dynasty. If we just watch it like this, I'm afraid we will never forgive ourselves in this life."

"Soldiers, please follow me. I am not afraid. If we can survive this journey, I will buy you a drink!"

"Of course, I also know that you are only escorting me to Hongdu Prefecture, not to Tanzhou Prefecture. Therefore, you also need to be on duty here. If you don't want to go forward, just stay where you are."

"This old man, I don't blame you at all!"

"After all, it was I who promised His Majesty, and it was His Majesty who gave the order to me." (End of this chapter)
