Chapter 440: Hold on to the fortified city and do not go into battle
It seemed like a thunder suddenly exploded overhead.
Shang Ruyi only felt that her body had been split into pieces, and her soul was about to leave her body. It was not until a burst of exclamation sounded that she regained her consciousness.
It was Mu Xian and Shantong'er who exclaimed.
"General!?"
"Second brother!"
As their exclamations sounded and their heavy and messy footsteps sounded, although Shang Ruyi's soul did not seem to have fully returned to its original position at this time, he turned almost subconsciously. She turned around and shouted loudly: "Stay outside!"
Everyone was shocked by her voice and stopped in their tracks.
But Shang Ruyi turned to look at He Wenzhu with a pale face and red eyes, and asked in a trembling voice: "Doctor, is he really——"
He Wenzhu was trembling. He stood up and confessed his guilt to her again and again. Said: "I'm sorry, Madam. I'm old and stupid. I couldn't diagnose the disease last night because I didn't see any symptoms beforehand. Only the general fell ill. He thought it was just ordinary typhoid fever. However, he had the symptoms of typhoid fever and no typhoid veins." .”
"..."
"Today's fierce battle has aggravated the general's illness. I just checked the pulse and found that the left hand pulse is larger than the right hand, slow and full, and weak when pressed. This, this is-"< br>
At the end of the day, He Wenzhu was speechless.
But even if he didn't say those two words, Shang Ruyi already understood everything in his heart.
Plague!
What Yu Wenye suffered from was not ordinary typhoid fever, but a plague!
But why did he contract the plague?
This question not only entangled her like a poisonous snake at the moment, but also shocked everyone outside. Song Yu's expression changed even more. He hurriedly reached out to cover his mouth and nose, and at this time he retreated towards the door covered in cold sweat.
Mu Xian said with a pale face: "Why does the general get such a disease?"
"..."
"No one is sick in the city."
Although Dai Junliang subconsciously reached out to cover his mouth and nose, his expression remained normal. After thinking for a while, he said: "Is it because - the city That Jingguan outside.”
“Jingguan?”
Everyone in the room was shocked when they heard these two words.
Then He Wenzhu's eyes lit up and he said hurriedly: "Exactly, the weather is hot and there are mountains of corpses outside the city. This situation is indeed easy to spread the plague."
"..."
"Moreover, the wind has been blowing from the southwest recently."
Dai Junliang said: "That's why last night, the general asked how many wells there were in the city and asked him The water in the city must be obtained from upstream. It seems that the general has taken precautions. "
“But that’s not right,”
He Wenzhu frowned his gray eyebrows and said solemnly: “Those corpses have been piled up for several days, but the general has just arrived. Why? There was no disease in the city yet, but the general fell ill first.”
"Yeah, why is this?"
"General, he..."
These people were talking all over the place, but Shang Ruyi couldn't hear a word, she tried her best He held the trembling hot body in his arms and used all his strength to support him and sit on the head of the bed. Yu Wenye's face was gray, his breath was like fire, and his chest was rising and falling violently, with a feeling of being on the verge of being broken.
After breathing for a long time, he raised his head and glanced at Shang Ruyi. But he didn't say anything, and turned to look around again - but at this moment, in his sight, all the people were only vague outlines.
He took a few deep breaths and finally gathered some strength.
said: "Dai Junliang."
Dai Junliang immediately took a step forward, but before he could take a few more steps, Shang Ruyi's eyes immediately stared at him, making his His footsteps stopped beside the screen. He could only lower his head and said, "What are your orders, General?"
Yu Wenye took a breath for a while. day, and then said: "Close the city gates tightly, dig deep ditches, fortify the city, and do not go out to fight..."
Because his breath was weak, he spoke these sixteen words intermittently, but each word was repeated. , especially the last eight words, are more like being carved with a knife, as if they want to carve each word into the hearts of everyone present and make them remember it.
Defend the city firmly and do not go to war!
Dai Junliang immediately said: "I will understand."
Song Yu had already retreated to the door, but when he heard Yu Wenye's words, his face changed again, and he immediately said: "General, please forgive us for not being able to abide by your cowardly military orders!"
Yu Wenye's chest rose and fell violently several times.
However, after finishing those sixteen words, he no longer had the energy to say anything more at this moment.
He just raised his head and glanced at Shang Ruyi.
His face was gray, and his eyes, which had always been cold and steady, with a reassuring power, were only flickering with a faint light at the moment, as if he wanted to say something to her, but couldn't. Say a word.
It can be discussed as desired, but I understand.
She was originally frightened, scared, sad, sad, all the emotions came up together after hearing He Wenzhu's diagnosis, and she was almost about to cry. But strangely, at this time, there was not a single tear. None, not only were there no tears, those emotions accumulated in her chest, but instead slowly suppressed her heavy heartbeat.
Gradually, she became calmer and calmer, and more and more sober.
She suddenly raised her head and winked at Wuxue, who had been standing silently in the corner of the room.
When Wuxue saw it, he nodded, turned around and walked out.
Mu Xian and Shan Tong'er, who were on the side, were so angry that their eyes were red. They turned back to stare at Song Yu who was making such nonsense, wanting to rush up and tear him into pieces. Dai Junliang turned around and faced Song Yu. Yu, although he had a somewhat uneven aura, still said respectfully: "Master Song, General Why didn't you obey the army's order?"
Song Yu didn't dare to go further into the inner room. He just raised his finger and pointed at the figure on the screen and said: "Look at his look, he can't speak clearly. Can you still command the army to fight?”
“…”
"If you listen to his command again at this time, you will suffer a big loss!"
Dai Junliang took a deep breath and said: "But in the morning, Lord Song went out of the city to fight, didn't he just eat Xue Xian? Is it a loss?"
When he mentioned his failure in the battle, Song Yu's face turned even darker.
But compared to Mu Xian who was just Yu Wenye’s deputy general, Shan Tong’er who was just Yu Wenye’s personal soldier, and Dai Junliang who was Fufeng’s general, we couldn’t treat them the same as those two people, so he sneered, Said: "In that battle in the morning, if you all work together with me, why worry about not being able to defeat Xue Xian?"
"..."
"In the final analysis, the general's military order last night was wrong!"
As soon as he heard this, Cheng Qiao, who had been silent, could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, turned around and said angrily to him : "You're talking nonsense!"
The good boy was so angry that his eyes turned red: "What's wrong with you again?" Nonsense, I won't let you go!"
Seeing everyone's anger, Song Yu suddenly sneered and said, "I forgot, why don't you two take action? They tied me up!”
There will be more later
