Dayong's military tent was set up in a half-collapsed dwelling three miles outside the city.This place used to be a town with many people, but now, there is no one there, only ruins.Guo Yi took people to clean it up, and finally managed to find this dwelling as Shi Dayong's camp, and the rest of them could only rest in the ruins.

The Jinzhou army came west in a hurry, except for the ordnance and food needed for the battle, they did not bring the rest of the tools needed to set up the camp, and there was no safe camp waiting for them outside Laizhou City.Tens of thousands of people gather in this small place, the threat of disease is inevitable, and the threat of mosquitoes is also great. Dayong doesn't know anything else, but he knows that mosquitoes and flies can quickly infect germs, so he must take some preventive measures.

"Each camp buried more large pots, and if there were not enough iron pots, they sent people into the city to buy them. They only cooked two meals a day, one dry and one dilute. Send special guards, no one is allowed to throw objects into the water, and the safety of the water source must be ensured.”

"At night, use cattail grass to repel mosquitoes, and each general will tie up his troops. Once the hour passes, none of the soldiers can move around. Anyone who makes noise, beheaded."

"In the camp, a latrine should be dug. The depth is more than three feet. The soldiers have to go to the latrine. Those who defecate anywhere have heavy sticks. Each battalion should also assign special personnel to supervise. The excrement in the pit should be buried with soil or lime. class till it dies.”[

"Send people to find more lime, straw mats, hay, lime to repel insects, hay to insulate the earth's atmosphere, and straw mats to spread on it, so that sick people can gather in one place so that they cannot infect each other, and the dead should be incinerated immediately.

"The military medical workers are all gone, so we can only send people to the city to hire a doctor with a lot of money. If you don't want to, you can ask Yang Zhentai in Tongzhou to come forward to recruit him."

"Salt is absolutely indispensable. You can send people to the city to buy meat, fish, vegetables and fruits, and buy more vegetable oil. Don't be afraid to spend money. Buy as much as you have. After buying, distribute according to the number of people in each camp, but first Make sure what our Jinzhou headquarters needs, and distribute the surplus to the new attached troops."

After making some arrangements for the several plague-like cases that occurred in the army in the past two days, Dayong always felt that he had the bottom of his heart, but that was all he could do. Whether it was a plague or not could not be decided until the doctor confirmed it.If it is really a plague, he can only give up the heads of Li Jiuzheng and Kong Youde, and immediately lead his troops back to Dengzhou.In the past two years, Dayong has heard more or less about the horror of the plague.In the land of Denglai, there are many dead people, and some corpses cannot be buried at all. Dayong naturally has to worry about whether the plague will break out.

Then he asked Li Dashan, who was temporarily in charge of the army's food supplies, to buy as much meat and vegetables as possible, especially vegetable oil, because when he patrolled the camp in the morning, he found that many soldiers were unable to defecate. There is no more vegetable oil, and a batch of horse meat was eaten in Zhaoyuan two days ago. Now the soldiers' stomachs are hard to digest, and the oil moistens the intestines, so naturally they cannot excrete.In such a situation, it is natural to solve it, otherwise, if everyone is like this, the Jinzhou Army will have little combat effectiveness, and everyone will hold their stomachs and frown all day long.The feeling of not being able to pull, I am afraid that no human can suffer from it.

Orders were passed down one after another, and they were all handled by special personnel.In the past when there were few soldiers, Dayong didn't feel how troublesome the trifles of the camp were, but now that there are tens of thousands more soldiers, the number of these things made him breathless.He wondered if he should set up an agency to take care of this kind of affairs after he settled down, so that he could concentrate on the military.

In the afternoon, Dayong summoned Lin Tai, Xiang Chong, Du Guo, Shen Yi, Liang Dao and other former rebel generals to coax them.All the rebel generals now only want to rely on the big tree of the Jinzhou Army to prevent the court from prosecuting themselves for the crime of treason, and because of the strength of the Jinzhou Army, it is natural that they are only promises, and they dare to be dissatisfied.

"You and the original troops are all up to you. I will not interfere, but if someone can't control their own soldiers, then I will take over. At that time, you don't want to blame me. General." Dayong beat the rebel generals again.

"All the tribes are stationed in front of Xiaoguanzhuang, and they are not allowed to move lightly, let alone retreat lightly, if they retreat without permission, they will be cut off!"

"Food, grass and military equipment will be assigned a special person to take care of it, so you don't have to worry about it."

After a few more instructions, Dayong asked the rebel generals to go back, but he saw Xiang Chong hesitantly got up and saluted, and then asked nervously in a low voice: "The general ordered us to lead our troops to station in front of Xiaoguanzhuang. , We are of course following orders, and we dare not move lightly, but the humble officer sees that the officers and soldiers on the other side seem to regard us as rebellious, so we are on guard, dare to ask the general, if the other side asks us to retreat, how should we deal with it?"

When Xiang Chong asked this question, Lin Tai and the others immediately agreed. They still don't know why Shi Dayong ordered them to camp in front of Xiaoguanzhuang, but the actions of the Ming army on the other side are very clear, and they are clearly regarded as traitors. The army came to see it.Now it’s finally hard to join the Jinzhou Army anyway, hoping that Shi Dayong can intercede with the court and pardon their crimes, but things are getting worse and worse. No matter how stupid Lin Tai and others are, they can clearly see that the Jinzhou Army’s arrangement is clearly aimed at Xiaoguan Zhuang Mingjun.Both parties are soldiers and horses of the imperial court, which makes them very confused, and they don't know what Shi Dayong wants to do.

"If the opposite side sends troops to drive us away, shall we advance or retreat? No matter whether we advance or retreat, please give me instructions from the general, lest we miss the military plane."

Lin Tai said it very tactfully. What he said was that if the Ming army in Xiaoguanzhuang sent troops to attack them, would they fight back or not? If they fought back, wouldn’t they still be suspicious of the rebels? , Shi Dayong will let them take the blame.

After hearing this, Dayong laughed, the generals didn't know why, and stared at him blankly.

After the laughter, Dayong sighed softly and said to himself: "It seems that the general kills too few people."

Hearing these words, all the generals were shocked, Dayong glanced over, and couldn't help lowering his head.

"Do you know how this skeleton came from?"

Dayong ignored the panic of the generals, and played with the skull that usually hung on his chest with great interest. [

Dayong's face was already ferocious, and this move added a bit of fear.All the traitors were terrified, and when they thought of the rumors in the army, they felt a chill in their hearts.

"Go back, so that you can take care of your soldiers, and you don't need to worry about other things." Dayong glanced at the rebel generals coldly, "I'm not afraid of this general, so what are you afraid of?"

After hearing this, the generals hurriedly retreated, not daring to say anything more.As soon as he exited the room, he saw Guo Yi enter the room in a hurry, walked up to Dayong and whispered a few words, after hearing this, Dayong smiled slightly and said: "It's very unlucky for Mao Da to be slaughtered by Xiao Xiao, It's a pity that Grand Master Mao I was famous."

All the rebel generals were at the door, so they were all stunned when they heard this.Dayong didn't hide from them, he smiled and raised his voice and said to them: "Geng Zhongming and Li Zhongfu killed Mao Chenglu and surrendered to the general."

Mao Chenglu is dead? !The generals were surprised, who is Mao Da?That was Grand Master Mao's adopted son, and he was well-known in Dongjiang, but he died outside Laizhou today, which is embarrassing to think about.

After being surprised, they all turned around and congratulated Dayong at the same time: "Congratulations, General!"

Dayong was also in a good mood, and tapped the middle finger of his right hand a few times, "Since Mao Da is dead, there is no need to procrastinate the matter. If you want to come to Song Qing, you don't want to come. Let's go, and we will go up and down. Let's see if this birdless eunuch has the guts."
