Chapter 709: Misery in the City
"Yes, I borrowed troops from Muwangfu in Kunming City, Yunnan Province!" Wang Shouren also stopped selling Guanzi, and spoke thoroughly, "Actually, I have already met General Wu on the road, and he has already told me all the things about the people of Yiliang, this time it has been hard!" ”
As he spoke, he patted Ming Zhongxin's shoulder, his eyes full of wordless gratitude.
"Where's General Wu?" Ming Zhongxin suddenly, couldn't stand his grateful gaze, shifted his gaze to look around, but did not find Wu Qi's figure.
"Didn't you put him in charge of the people of Yiliang in the west?" Wang Shouren reminded.
"Oh!" A hint of amusement flashed in Ming Zhongxin's eyes, and he actually forgot the things he had arranged, but then he thought about it, no! If Wu Qi met Wang Shouren and reported to him the poisoning incident of the people of Yiliang, how could he rush here so quickly and leisurely, he should have collected and saved the people on the West Road with Wu Qi!
For a while, he turned to Wang Shouren with an inquiring eye.
Wang Shouren didn't hold back after all, and laughed, "Actually, the people of Yiliang who went to the west have been collected by me when I came, and with General Wu's dedicated pursuit along the way, all the people who went to the west have been wiped out by us." Now General Wu leads the imperial doctors to treat him. ”
When Ming Zhongxin heard this, he smiled, it seems that the West Road has completed the task ahead of schedule!
Wang Shouren looked at Ming Zhongxin and sighed, "Along the way, thanks to the students you handed over to me, they really played a big role!" Especially this Yiliang handling matter, to be honest, even I can't do it so well! ”
Oh! Ming Zhongxin instantly remembered that he hadn't seen those students who were protecting Wang Shouren's safety, where were they now? I couldn't help but look around and see how they were doing.
However, looking around, there was no trace, and Ming Zhongxin frowned.
"Okay, don't worry about them, I'll let them heal those people with Wu Qi! Didn't follow! Wang Shouren explained.
"You said they made a big difference?" Ming Zhongxin was relieved at this time, but then remembered Wang Shouren's words just now.
"Not bad!" Wang Shouren said with a smile on his face, "Actually, we met the people of Yiliang earlier than General Wu. ”
Yes! Ming Zhongxin looked at Wang Shouren worriedly, looking up and down to see if he had been infected with drugs.
"Alright, don't worry, I'm fine!" Wang Shouren knew what he was worried about.
"Really?"
"This is thanks to those students to remind me, after all, the people who came out of the disaster area are very likely to be infected with the epidemic, which I knew, however, at that time, I didn't think for a while, so I wanted to immediately give porridge for diagnosis and treatment, but the students stopped me, suggesting that these people should rest in place first, and then send people to give porridge to make them feel at ease, and then diagnose and treat whether they are infected with the epidemic. Especially after receiving a letter from you, we were even more careful to collect the people along the way, and after a detailed examination, we were allowed to move freely after confirming that they were not infected with the epidemic. However, to our surprise, these people were not infected with the disease, but were poisoned, which made us helpless. Wang Shouren looked happy.
"Then you're not infected, are you?" Ming Zhongxin said urgently.
"Alas!" Wang Shouren sighed, "Don't say it, someone is really poisoned!" ”
"What?" Ming Zhongxin was shocked, if the toxin was infected, it would be really terrible!
"Don't worry, it's not contagious!" Wang Shouren seemed to know what he was worried about, and comforted, "Actually, with the reminders of the students and your letters, we are extremely careful to isolate those Yiliang people from the army. Even so, your students were accidentally poisoned because they rushed to the front line! ”
When Ming Zhongxin heard this, he looked at Wang Shouren worriedly, waiting for his explanation.
"After the students were infected with the poison, they told us not to approach, and they dragged the infected bodies and actively controlled the toxins to prevent them from spreading, and in this way, we were dragged to the ground and could not move forward. At this moment, General Wu arrived in time, and even brought some imperial doctors with him, and used treatment methods to control the toxin! ”
That's good! Ming Zhongxin breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Wu Qi and them arrived, naturally they would not let the toxin spread!
Wang Shouren smiled bitterly, "Actually, at that time, we were already very careful, in the first time to collect the people of Yiliang, we separated them from the sergeants, let the students check for them, after confirming that the people have not been infected with the epidemic, we led them to Yiliang, I never thought that there would be people with poison not far ahead, alas, the official was careless!" ”
Glancing at Ming Zhongxin, Wang Shouren sighed, "Just this thought almost put us in a situation from which we will never recover!" ”
Ming Zhongxin also smiled bitterly, yes, who would have thought that the thieves of the Maitreya Society would actually use Gu worms to spread toxins, which is really unguardable!
"But it's also a blessing for this thought! Otherwise" Thinking of the consequences, Wang Shouren couldn't help but shudder, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, how many people in Yunnan have you saved in this thought!" Ming Zhongxin sighed.
"It's also fortunate that I met General Wu earlier, otherwise, if we delay this day any longer, I'm afraid that we won't be able to meet again!" Wang Shouren smiled bitterly.
"What about you!" Ming Zhongxin pointed to the distant Mu Jiajun.
"It's okay, General Wu has already asked the imperial doctors to check and detoxify everyone, it's not a big deal, and the only people who are infected with the poison have also been left in front of General Wu and treated by the imperial doctors." Wang Shouren explained to him.
"General Wu stayed on the West Road?"
"Nope!" Wang Shouren shook his head and said.
"That?" Ming Zhongxin was a little puzzled.
"I've sent him to the South Road. Of course, I have already assigned some Mu family soldiers to escort some imperial doctors and the people to recuperate in a quiet place. At the mention of this, Wang Shouren glanced at him reproachfully, "Alas, you kid! Although you don't need to worry about the South Road in general, you can't do it so ruthlessly! After all, the people of the south are also the people of the Ming Dynasty! ”
What else could Ming Zhongxin say, he could only laugh bitterly.
"I understand that you have limited manpower and can't take care of all sides! There's nothing wrong with your strategy, after all, you have to keep this southern Ming Xinjiang can't be messed up! Even if it is a riot, it is necessary to ensure that you do not get out of this Yunnan, this big strategy is right! Even if I was there, I could only arrange it this way! Wang Shouren sighed and affirmed his approach.
"As for General Wu, I sent him to the south, and we must control this matter within a limited scope, otherwise, our coming to disaster relief and epidemic prevention this time will really fall short!" Wang Shouren sighed.
Ming Zhongxin nodded in understanding.
"That's it, let's not talk about it, what is the situation in this Yiliang City now, and how to deal with it?" Wang Shouren was no longer entangled, and turned his head to look at the head of Yiliang City, as if muttering to himself.
Ming Zhongxin smiled bitterly, Lord Wang was asking himself about the countermeasures of Yiliang City! This news was originally explained to him by himself, and now he has also ordered the Mu family army to besiege Yiliang City and control the situation. Next, it's about how to solve this hidden danger! But I really don't know the details of the city!
"My lord, for the sake of today's plan, Ming will lead the people into the city, and act at the opportunity, you are responsible for presiding over the overall situation outside, what do you think?" Ming Zhongxin looked at Wang Shouren and suggested.
"This?" Wang Shouren hesitated, after all, as a messenger, along the way, all affairs were done by people Ming Zhongxin, and he also did things in his own name, winning countless praise from the people, and now he is in front of him, but he still wants others to contribute, and he really feels a little uncomfortable!
Moreover, now the situation in the city is complicated, the situation is unknown, I believe that there is not only the threat of epidemic viruses, but also the remnants of thieves waiting for an opportunity to attack in secret, which is full of dangers. How can I bear to let him take risks again! No, he must not be allowed to risk any more!
Wang Shouren made up his mind and waited for a veto.
"That's right, let's go with Mingyi and Master Ming!" Just then, a voice interjected.
The two turned their heads to look, but saw Mingyi walking over quickly, and the two of them were happy.
Oh, Mingyi led the team back!
"I've seen Chincha-sama!" Mingyi arrived near and rushed to Wang Shouren to salute.
"General Mingyi has worked hard!" Wang Shouren replied.
Ming Zhongxin looked into the distance, but saw that all the soldiers and people led by Mingyi had returned, obviously, they got the news that Lord Qincha led a large group of Mu family troops to come to reinforce, and turned back.
"I've seen Chincha-sama!" Master Yan turned out from behind Mingyi and saluted Wang Shouren, but his eyes were so strange, he looked at Wang Shouren from time to time, and then looked at Ming Zhongxin next to him. Obviously, Wang Shouren, who was still entangled in the previous Ming Zhongxin, is comparing the difference between these two genuine and fake.
When Wang Shouren saw Master Yan's book, he was stunned, and couldn't help but turn his gaze to Ming Zhongxin.
"This is the acting county commander of Yiliang County, who was coerced by thieves with poison before, but he did not lose his integrity, escaped from Yiliang City, and was rescued by us." Ming Zhongxin introduced him.
Wang Shouren nodded at the master of Yan, but a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes. Yes, even if he was coerced before, but this time Yiliang was so miserable, he was the acting county commander and could not escape the blame.
Master Yan is also a human spirit, and he knew that Lord Qincha did not want to see him, so he was speechless, so he had to step aside.
"My lord, then let's go!" Ming Zhongxin took the opportunity to ask Wang Shouren for his resignation, and as he spoke, he glanced at Mingyi, turned around and walked towards Yiliang City.
"Well, I haven't agreed yet!" Wang Shouren was anxious.
Ming Zhongxin smiled, "My lord, now I still need you to preside over the overall situation, go somewhere!" ”
This guy! Looking at Ming Zhongxin's back, a trace of crystal flashed in Wang Shouren's eyes, and he scolded in his heart.
Mingyi threw his hand at him, and then rushed away.
"Master Ming, how many people are we carrying?" Mingyi asked softly.
"No, the two of us can do it!" Ming Zhongxin shook his head and explained, "The situation in the city is complicated now, and if there are too many people, it will not be convenient!" ”
Mingyi nodded.
Looking at the backs of the two, Wang Shouren was a little worried, but thinking of Ming Zhongxin's consistent performance before, since he was like this, he must have a reason, and he will not be involved.
The sergeants of the Qincha Guard and the people of Yiliang looked at the two worriedly, but they couldn't stop them, so they had to secretly wish them both a safe return in their hearts.
Under the gaze of everyone, the two came under the city wall.
"Open the door!" Ming Zhongxin shouted.
After a screaky sound, the gates opened.
Ming Zhongxin and Ming Yi slowly entered the city gate.
Then the gates closed again, engulfing them like a black hole.
Wang Shouren sighed lightly, then looked left and right, and ordered one after another to settle the Qincha guards and the people, not to mention it for the time being.
And it shows that CITIC and Mingyi have entered the city of Yiliang.
"Teach!" There are students next to him who come forward to pay their respects.
Ming Zhongxin looked left and right, but saw that there were only five people on the side, fully armed, with blades in hand, looking at the city in a European style.
"Well, what's going on in the city right now?" Ming Zhongxin doesn't talk nonsense, and asks the key points directly.
"Under the leadership of Brother Zhao, we sneaked into the city and searched for the traces of the Wang scribe and others first, but we found that now there are only the people left in the city, and as for the Wang scribe and others, after we entered, they were nowhere to be found."
Ming Zhongxin frowned, "What about Mingxing?" ”
"Brother Zhao is continuing to search for the remnants of the Maitreya Society in the city, afraid that it will counterattack. After some searching, we found something strange in the city. ”
"Say, what's the weird method?"
"We found that the doors of the squires and wealthy families were closed, while the scattered people were all poisoned, but some parts of their bodies were festering, but they were not worried about their lives. Brother Zhao took us to diagnose and treat it, but found that this poison was not the toxin infected by the previous Gu worms, it was an unprecedented toxin, and the medicine stone was not effective at all. ”
When Ming Zhongxin heard this, he was shocked, it was broken, this Maitreya Society had actually developed another toxin!
Mingyi was even more frightened, what means did this Maitreya use again?
"What makes us even more troubled is that the rich squires have actually come to add to the chaos, and one by one the family members are like crazy, and from time to time someone rushes out of the house and rushes out of the city. As a last resort, we had to close the four doors and snipe these crazy family members. What is strange to us is that those rich squires did not come out, and their doors were closed, and they did not come out to explain, nor did they come out to find these families! The student said with a bitter face.
"And what do you do with them?"
"After capturing it, it was tied up, but it still couldn't make it quiet, but screamed again and again."
At this moment, suddenly, a scream suddenly came from a house in front of him.
"What is this?"
"That's the house where the mad family is held." The student explained, "Originally, we wanted to communicate with those rich squires and send these families back to their care, but what is strange to us is that they did not agree, but firmly refused, so we had no choice but to find such a vacant house and imprison them. ”
"Anything else?" Ming Zhongxin frowned.
"There really is, that is, some people actually do" Speaking of this, the student paused and looked at Ming Zhongxin.
