Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Guo Jia's heart warmed, and he nodded in agreement. He himself didn't know what happened yesterday, he felt top-heavy, and he walked a little lightly. Thinking of the conditions of the soldiers in the army when they were infected with the plague, Guo Jia's face suddenly became very pale.

After Hua Yu received the order from the soldiers, he didn't dare to be negligent, and hurried forward. After taking Guo Jia's pulse, his expression changed slightly, and he motioned Jia Rong to step aside and talk.

"Hua Lao, what's wrong with Feng Xiao?" Jia Rong asked.

"My lord, if the old man's expectations are correct, the military advisor must have been infected with the plague." Hua Yu said softly.

Jia Rong's face immediately turned pale, and he retorted, "Impossible."

"My lord..." Hua Yu hesitated to speak.

"No matter what, Feng Xiao must be cured, otherwise the general will only ask you." Jia Rong said with a livid face.

"Humble job must do its best."

"It's not about doing your best, but about curing it." Jia Rong repeated.

Hua Yu shook his head slightly. He also knew the importance of Guo Jia to Jia Rong, but the plague can be serious or mild. Even he is not sure that he can completely cure a person infected with the plague.

Regardless of Hua Yu's instructions, Jia Rong came to Guo Jia's side and said, "Feng Xiao, Mr. Hua said that you were infected with a cold. Go and treat him first. I'll take care of the closing."

Guo Jia nodded and said: "Thank you, my lord, I have nothing to do with a humble job, but..."

"If I tell you to treat it, go there. There are so many nonsense, Mr. Hua, use the best medicine." Jia Rong turned his head away.

Guo Jia bowed his hands and left. In fact, seeing Jia Rong's performance, he already had a plan in mind.

"Bong Xiao." Jia Rong looked at Guo Jia's back and shouted.

Guo Jia looked back at Jia Rong in confusion.

"Be well, I'll see you later." Jia Rong waved his hand to signal Guo Jia to leave.

"Old Hua, do I have the plague?" Guo Jia asked in a clean tent.

"Military commander thought too much, heal the disease well." Hua Yu said.

"Don't hide it from me, I already know." Guo Jia said.

Hua Yu sighed and said: "Military Master, my lord has given the order to die, and I must cure you."

"Life and death depend on fate and wealth. Even if it is death, there is nothing to fear. The only thing I care about is the princes outside the pass." Guo Jiawei closed his eyes and said.

"Military Master, I will do my best to treat you." Hua Yu said.

Guo Jia got up suddenly, grabbed Hua Yu and said, "You have ulterior motives, why do you want to harm the Lord?"

Hua Yu was shocked, and hurriedly said: "Master, don't talk nonsense, I am loyal to my lord, how could I do anything against my lord."

"Then you just found out that I was infected with the plague, and you still let the lord approach me, don't you have ulterior motives." Guo Jia asked.

Hua Yu sighed and said, "Why didn't the old man try to persuade you, it's just that the lord insisted on telling you in person."

Guo Jia let go of Hua Yu's hands, and sat down on the ground with a face ashen. The plague made people talk about it, and he was also afraid of death as a military adviser. Even when he was young, he still wanted to show his strength in the Xiliang army , to advise Jia Rong, did not expect to encounter such a thing.

What happened to Guo Jia made Jia Rong extremely uncomfortable. Compared with Jia Xu, Guo Jia joined the Xiliang Army later, but his own talent was quickly recognized by the generals and officials, and the monarchs and ministers knew each other.

The soldiers in front of Li Ru attacked Hangu Pass with full of enthusiasm. They were abandoned sons, but they were able to shine at the last moment, allowing their families to be taken care of and receive some pensions because of their deaths. .

"Attack!" Li Ru ordered.

With the flag waving, thousands of soldiers resolutely launched an attack on Hangu Pass with the sound of rumbling war drums. The soldiers skillfully set up ladders to the top of the city.

"Let it go!" Jia Rong ordered without hesitation when the coalition soldiers entered the best range of the ballista.

The crossbow arrows that covered the sky roared towards the coalition soldiers, their eyes were carefree and happy, they had already put life and death aside, how could they care about the deadly crossbow arrows, attacking Hangu Pass would be nothing but death.

The crossbow arrows almost took the lives of half of the soldiers, and the ladders erected on the top of the city were also pushed down in an orderly manner by the Xiliang army. The slightest deterrence.

On the battlefield, the sacrifices of the coalition soldiers were particularly tragic. Without the cover of archers, wells, carts, and heavy infantry, they relied on their flesh and blood to beat the elite Xiliang army with their bodies.

Li Ru's expression was gloomy, and the fierceness of the battlefield only made his eyes slightly narrowed. In his opinion, as long as one soldier climbed the city wall, the battle would be considered a victory. Waquan is the portrayal of Li Ru's heart at this time.

No matter how brave the Xiliang army is, what can they do? Li Ru does not believe that they can survive the infection of the plague.

In the Han Dynasty, the plague was almost unsolvable, so it is no wonder that Li Ru had such thoughts.

After a soldier fell, the soldiers behind stepped forward without hesitation, and met the Xiliang army's swords, guns, swords and halberds with their flesh and blood.

Dozens of soldiers boarded the city wall, and the coalition soldiers who could barely lift their strength were quickly killed.

Jia Rong's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly ordered the soldiers to throw the bodies of the coalition soldiers over the city wall.

Li Ru's face showed a touch of color, the war has progressed here, the goal has been achieved, and he rushed back to the camp with satisfaction.

The coalition's offensive did not bring too much trouble to the Xiliang army. In the eyes of ordinary soldiers, the coalition's actions were completely death-seeking. They had no armor and only relied on the weapons in their hands. If they could capture Hangu Pass, they would be It's a miracle.

"Throw all the oil under the city!" Jia Rong ordered.

"Let the rocket!"

A raging flame was ignited in the door, and the corpses of the coalition soldiers were almost covered in it. Perhaps only the fire can truly purify the plague on these soldiers.

After returning to the tent, Jia Rong felt that his whole body was shaking from time to time, and suddenly he was startled. Could it be that after the coalition soldiers attacked the city wall, they accidentally contracted the plague, and hurriedly sent someone to invite Hua Yu to come.

"My lord!" Hua Yu cupped his hands.

Jia Rong hastily ordered the guards to sit for Hua Yu. Such an old man, who has been working for the Xiliang Army for many years, went there resolutely when he learned of the plague. This courage deserves everyone's respect.

"How is Guo Jia's condition? Is there any progress on the plague?" Jia Rong asked.

"My lord, there is still no cure. I just prescribed a prescription to ease the spread of the plague. Coupled with the actions of the lord, it has greatly eased the spread of the plague. Since ancient times, there has been no cure for the plague. The old man In my opinion, if we let the army retreat, gather the plague-infected soldiers together and let them die, while the military adviser is treating them in the tent, I will do my best." Hua Yu said slowly.

Jia Rong was shocked. He never expected that the always kind old man would have such a plan. It was really unbelievable. "No matter what, Feng Xiao must be cured."

"No." Hua Yu cupped his hands and said, why doesn't he want to cure Guo Jia? This will not only make Jia Rong trust him more, but also make Guo Jia owe him a favor, but the plague is not so easy to cure .

"And these soldiers have been with me for many years, how can they be abandoned because of a small plague." Jia Rong said firmly.

"Is it because I am infected with the plague and will be ruthlessly abandoned?" Jia Rong asked back.

Hua Yu's complexion changed drastically. The officialdom is different from that of being a carefree doctor before. A little carelessness will bring about the disaster of decapitation.

Jia Rong helped Hua Yu up and said, "It's not that you don't know who I am. Even in the end, I will not give up appointing a soldier who is infected with the plague. It seems that I was also infected with the plague after the coalition siege. , and now I feel dizzy and weak in limbs.”

Hua Yu was startled, and hurriedly asked Jia Rong to sit down and began to observe.

After a long time, Hua Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "My lord, Hong Fu, is just infected with a cold. I will prescribe some medicine, and he will recover after a short rest."

Jia Rong's heart is also Dading, no one wants to be infected with the almost unsolvable plague "Soldiers must find a way to cure the plague, pass on the order, no matter who can solve the plague, reward a thousand gold, and directly promote to the deputy of the medical center." Curator, the position is equivalent to the county magistrate level."

Hua Yu cupped his hands and said, "No!"

After Hua Yu left, Jia Rong sat in the tent, thinking hard about the plague, and he couldn't bury tens of thousands of troops here because of Li Ru's dying counterattack.

Under the heavy reward, there must be brave men. Hundreds of members of the medical center walked through the camp without fear of the plague. Solve the plague, reward a thousand gold, and seal the deputy director of the medical center, what an honor, the position is equivalent to the county magistrate, it seems that since the establishment of the medical center, there is only the post of curator, and Huayu is old In the past few years, the position of curator has not been easy to come by. In the Xiliang Army, the position of curator is equivalent to that of the prefect. If a doctor can reach this level, it is the smoke of his ancestors. Not everyone is as good as Zhang Ji family background.

Under the lure of huge profits, the staff of the medical center flocked to them, but there were still many dead. Even under the maintenance of medicine, soldiers who died began to appear in the wounded barracks. The death conditions were almost the same, and even the doctors died under the plague. There were nearly ten people.

In the camp of the allied forces of the princes outside the pass, people were already in panic. Nearly [-] soldiers died one after another, and it was silent. Paoze, who was alive yesterday, turned into a cold corpse when he saw it in the morning. This kind of blow from the heart made him The morale of the coalition forces was even lower.

Yuan Shao lavishly praised Li Ru's brilliant actions in front of the princes, but he didn't pay attention to the soldiers who died. As for whether their families will be compensated or not, it is still unknown. A low-level soldier will die when he dies. , It is difficult to attract attention, even if there is compensation from above, it will be deducted layer by layer, and in the hands of the soldiers' families, there is very little left.

Li Ru chuckled lightly and said, "The lord is absurdly praised, it all depends on the lord's merits, otherwise how could Ru think of such a clever plan."
