Chapter 654 rushed to Guandu
Li Huiyi was very disgusted by this, and the reason why he did not choose to station in the city was because he was afraid that these officials would act like this.
But he traveled in a hurry for days, and he was camped in the wilderness, and Li Huiyi's body couldn't bear it, so he could only rest in the city.
Looking at the big fish and meat in front of him, and the officials with a cautious face, Li Huiyi had no appetite at all, and said slowly: "You don't need to do this, you can go to work if you have something, and government affairs are important." ”
Hearing this, an official hurriedly stammered and said: "General, we have already finished handling the matter, and now accompanying the general is the biggest political matter and wealth." ”
Li Huiyi's eyebrows trembled, and he said slowly: "Oh, then I would have to ask, now in this city, in the hands of you, but there are still beggars and poor?" ”
"This ......" Hearing Li Huiyi ask this, the official didn't know how to answer for a while, if the world wants to say that the profession is cut off, it will definitely not be a beggar, whether it is a peaceful and prosperous era or a troubled era, the only difference is more and less.
Seeing that the officials were hesitant, Li Huiyi said angrily: "There are also beggars and poor people, and you have nothing to do here, which really makes the general feel cold, and he should not leave quickly, so as not to be upset by it." ”
Seeing that Li Huiyi was angry, these officials hurriedly left in fright, for fear of staying behind and being held accountable.
When everyone left, Li Huiyi shook his head helplessly and whispered: "If you don't scold a few words, you don't know how to go." ”
After Li Huiyi finished speaking, he began to eat and drink without any image, and even Dian Wei on the side couldn't snatch him.
Just as the two of them were eating with relish, an official suddenly came in a hurry. "General, there is news of Guandu."
"Huh?" Li Huiyi quickly threw away a bone in his hand, and before he even had time to wipe his hand, he stepped forward and snatched the letter from the official's hand.
Li Huiyi opened it and took a look, as if he was frozen, motionless in place.
Seeing this scene, the official's eyes widened slightly, wanting to see what was written in the letter, but as soon as he glanced at it, he saw Li Huiyi's face looking at him gloomy, and he quickly lowered his head in fright.
"Have you read the letter?"
"No, the lower officials don't dare to look at it privately." Hearing Li Huiyi's inquiry, the official hurriedly replied, for fear of causing trouble.
Li Huiyi put away a trace of his face, became softer and said: "Okay, then you go down, by the way, inform the city guards and others, the general will be out of the city later." ”
The official replied respectfully: "Yes, the general can rest assured, the subordinate will definitely arrange it, and will never delay the general's trip." ”
Li Huiyi waved him down, hurriedly walked to Dian Wei, who was eating and drinking, and said anxiously: "Evil comes, something happened to Guandu, and I was going to rush first, you go and inform Jinyiwei, so that they can set off tomorrow as originally planned, and then chase after them." ”
Seeing that Li Huiyi's expression didn't look like a joke, Dian Wei stood up violently, wiped his mouth and said, "Got it, be careful on the main highway." ”
"Hmm." Li Huiyi nodded, and the two began to act separately, Li Huiyi did not wait for Jinyiwei, there was a reason, he and Dian Wei's horses were one in a million.
Although Jin Yiwei is also a good horse, there is still a gap between him and Li Huiyi, and Li Huiyi can't wait to fly to Guandu at this time, so he naturally doesn't want to wait and waste time.
Li Huiyi found his war horse, turned over and galloped out of the city, not stopping at all along the way, thinking about the word plague all the time.
Seeing that the sky was about to rise, Li Huiyi decided to stop and rest for a while, waiting for Dian Wei to chase after him, after all, he was getting closer and closer to Guandu, and if he ran into Cao Jun's infiltration troops, no one would help, and he was afraid that his life would be in danger.
Li Huiyi rested for half an hour, and when he saw that Dian Wei's figure had not yet appeared, he was a little anxious. "How can this Dian Wei do something, do something procrastinating, and if you don't come, you can only leave first."
Li Huiyi muttered a few words, waited for a while, and saw that Dian Wei had not yet appeared, and his patience had been exhausted, so he turned over and continued to hurry.
Soon after Li Huiyi left, Dian Wei covered his stomach and rode a war horse slowly, and along the way, Dian Wei Ke was guilty and died.
After notifying Jinyiwei yesterday, Dian Wei's stomach began to diarrhea for some reason, and he pulled seven or eight times along the way, almost making him collapse.
No, I finally got a little comfortable, so I hurried to catch up, but I didn't expect to catch up.
Because of this small sudden incident, the two did not converge, and it also laid the groundwork for the things that followed.
Li Huiyi waited several times, but seeing that Dian Wei had not caught up, he simply did not wait, and rode his horse all the way to Guandu.
Guandu, at this time, the two sides are no longer worried about the war, and they are dedicated to controlling the epidemic, because these days, a large number of soldiers have begun to die, and the number of infections has increased significantly.
Cao Cao's head wind is also aggravated, Chen Gong's fate is also hanging by a thread, and both sides are trying their best to find the source antidote to the plague, but neither has made much progress.
Cao Junshuai's tent, Cao Cao closed his eyes and tied strips of cloth on his head, and everyone in the tent had sad faces and helpless looks.
If these people could still give advice in the war, but this plague made these people at a loss, and they could only listen to the law of the military doctor.
But military doctors are not professional in this plague, most of them are treating those wounded soldiers, what they can do is to isolate and minimize infection, as for treatment, that is, according to various wind and cold formulas, whether it can be cured or not depends on the will of God.
After a long time, Cao Cao opened his mouth and said: "Everyone, the epidemic is prevalent, there is no cure, the battle situation is deadlocked, there is no way to retreat, left and right, what can you do?" ”
Li Ru thought for a while and said: "Prime Minister, there is only one way to solve the root of the problem. ”
As soon as he heard that there was a way, Cao Cao hurriedly asked, "Wen You said quickly, what way?" ”
Li Ru's eyes showed a cold glow, and he said slowly: "Why didn't the prime minister secretly kill and burn all those infected people, and burn all the things they used, so that the source of the plague would be eliminated." ”
Li Ru's method can be described as vicious, but it is also effective, but whether it will be used depends on how Cao Cao chooses.
Cao Cao thought for a while and said: "Our army currently has nearly 10,000 people infected, and if all of them are killed, I am afraid it will cause unimaginable consequences." ”
Cao Cao's worries are not unreasonable, slaughtering his own soldiers, no matter how good the secrecy is, if it spreads, who will fight for Cao Cao in the future.
"Hmm." Seeing that Cao Cao disagreed, Li Ru continued: "In this case, Confucianism still has a law, the prime minister can transfer those people out of Dazhai and set up a separate battalion completely to isolate them from our army and avoid new infections." ”。
Cao Cao thought for a while and said, "This method is not bad, then I will leave it to you." ”
"Yes." Li Ru took the order and continued: "Prime Minister, there is a way to deal with the plague, so is our army considering taking action?" ”
