Chapter 912: Cao Ren has already made a decision
"In fact, this is true, but the subordinates are not qualified to enter the camp of the Jingzhou Legion, and the soldiers over there do not let their subordinates in......" The medical officer was a little anxious, and they all said that the doctor's parents knew that there was a group of people who needed treatment, but they couldn't get over, and the medical officer was very anxious.
"Why are you sure that the source has something to do with water?" Cao Ren probably understood his feelings, but still asked for proof.
"It's a matter of habit!" The medical officer replied, "Since the popularization of military medicine, some basic medical knowledge has also been popularized throughout the army. Therefore, the drinking water and bathing water of our army are only used after boiling. In addition, the water is cold in winter, and the water army does not go to swim in the water, so there is no similar situation of infected people in our army at present.
The soldiers of the Jingzhou Legion drank raw water and bathed directly in river water were very common. As a result, there is a problem, and the biggest problem may be the water problem.
If it is a problem with the water source, then the local residents should know the situation here, and their subordinates have sent people to the surrounding villages to understand the situation. Counting the time, it's almost time to come back......"
"Report!" At this time, a soldier came to the handsome tent with a smoke, "Ladies and gentlemen, the small one has run for more than fifty miles, and finally found the people, and then asked about the situation!" ”
"It is said that this side is also an important port, how can you walk more than 50 miles to see people?" Cao Ren was a little puzzled.
"Lord Hui, since the rumors of monsters appeared here, everyone has avoided here, and no one dares to live here within a radius of fifty miles. I heard that we are stationed here, and we have to be careful of the big-bellied monsters! The soldier replied.
"Big-bellied youkai?" It's the first time Cao Ren has heard of this situation, is it because the youkai is big-bellied, or will it turn people into big-bellied youkai? If it's the latter, it's generally a thought of ...... No, this monster feels super dangerous!
Cao Ren suddenly entered a state of fried hair, for women, this kind of monster is too dangerous!
"Yes, it is said that there used to be several villages here, but suddenly one day, the villagers fell ill one after another, and then as time passed, their bellies slowly expanded...... The key is that men, women and children, young and old, are not immune. Over time, the villagers' bellies grew bigger and bigger, but the people became thinner and weaker, and finally died...... Many doctors and craftsmen have come to diagnose and treat, but there is no result, and in the end, within a radius of fifty miles, it has become a ghost, and the surrounding residents dare not approach casually. The soldier immediately reported what he had heard.
"My lord, it's a parasite, it should be a parasite mediated by water!" The medical officer hurriedly raised the jar in his hand.
"It seems that I am going to go over to them again......" Cao Ren looked at the barracks of the Jingzhou Legion, since he knew that it was not a plague, then there would be nothing to go in. Before going out, he said to the medical officer, "Prepare a large amount of lacquer leaf green sticky, immediately!" ”
"Yes!" The medical officer did not dare to slack off, and immediately went over and sent someone to prepare medicinal materials.
"That's right!" As a result, Cao Ren, who had just gone out, suddenly came back again, "Send someone immediately to take medicine and go with me!" ”
The medical officer was startled and almost knocked over the jar in his hand, Cao Ren also noticed this, and was directly startled when he thought of the insects inside. Then he thought of something and added, "By the way, bring this jar too!" ”
A quarter of an hour later, Cai Mao, the commander of the Jingzhou Army, began to take the insecticide, and as for it to take effect, it is estimated that it will take some time. Thinking back to when they just saw the worms in the jar and realized that there were countless of these things in their bodies, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun's faces were not very good.
"It's a water problem...... Indeed, most of our non-commissioned officers are southerners, especially the non-commissioned officers of the navy, and it is common for them to bathe directly in the river water. As a result, they became the first batch of infected parasites, no wonder they were almost all ...... in a seizure" Zhang Yun sighed, I don't know, forget it, after knowing the truth, in retrospect, I really found a lot of clues.
"Wow!" The effect of the medicine seemed to have an effect, and Cai Mao picked up the jar and vomited, and sure enough, he vomited a lot of bugs. Just depending on the situation, it may not be completely discharged.
"In the next three days, it is estimated that I will continue to take it, but during this period, it is best to eat some foods with a lighter taste but more nutritious. Even if it's some milk, it's good. The medical officer took Cai Mao's pulse, "Later, I will prescribe some other warm and tonic medicines, at least to regulate the body." ”
"Rest, when will the insecticide come over?" Cai Mao is more concerned about this issue at the moment.
"I will come over one after another, it was just a routine preparation, but I didn't expect it to be ......used on a large scale," Cao Ren sighed.
"Who would have thought that there would be a legend of monsters here......" Cai Mao also knew Cao Ren's difficulty, it was originally to take care of the medicine prepared by the Yangzhou Legion, and if there was too much preparation, it would occupy a heavy load, so it could only be prepared in small amounts, who knew that parasitic diseases would break out on a large scale.
Thinking of this, she suddenly realized a problem: "Slow, we don't know this legend because I'm like Xiangyang, which is far away from here; And you are in Yangzhou, and you don't understand much about this place...... Zhou Yu, who was directly deployed here in Lukou, did she know about this matter? ”
"If you say that, I just thought that the other party is arranging a formation here in Lukou, I'm afraid it may not be just because it is as simple as going to Yuzhang County by land here!" Cao Ren was also thorough at all, and immediately understood Zhou Yu's intentions.
The first is to destroy their soldiers, especially their morale, with parasitic diseases, and if possible, it is better to paralyze the naval units of the two armies. After that, taking advantage of the sudden southeast wind, a sudden night attack on the port of Ulin, when the fire spread, even if the disparity in forces is useless, the water and fire are ruthless, one fire is enough to destroy all the ships, including most of the soldiers, and the baggage.
When the time comes, let alone going south, it would be good if the other party didn't take the opportunity to knock down the four counties of Jiangxia and Jingnan. After all, when the time comes, whether it is the Yangzhou Legion or the Jingzhou Legion, there will be no naval army that can resist Sun Quan! As long as the other party cuts off the Yangtze River, then the four counties of Jingnan will be completely isolated and helpless!
"This Zhou Yu, I didn't expect it to be so vicious!" After figuring out the other party's calculations, Cao Ren clenched his fists.
"The key is that now, your Yangzhou Legion is fine, and the strength of my Jingzhou Legion has been greatly reduced, how is it good?" Cai Mao regretted a little, he should have obeyed the arrangements of the Yangzhou Army earlier, such as cutting down trees to build a separation belt, such as daily water sanitation or something.
If you had paid attention before, I guess there would have been nothing left.
"For today's plan, it is estimated that it is a bit ......enough to take the initiative to attack" Cao Ren looked at the camp behind him, so many soldiers needed treatment, and it was estimated that there would be no more than ten days to get it done. But the question is, will their opponents give them more than ten days to be treated, plus let the soldiers recover their combat strength?
Since there is none, then the fire attack is the inevitable result, in this case......
"General Cai...... For the sake of victory, you don't mind...... Shall I destroy all the warships of the Jingzhou Naval Division? Cao Ren asked.
"If you can win, just a warship, whatever the general uses!" Cai Mao was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and finally weighed it, and then replied decisively. Jingzhou Legion, we can't continue to pull back!
