Chapter 683
The valley is not high, but it is in the mountains, and you need to walk into it for a rough and uneven mountain road, because the mountains are old and the woods are dense, so it is not particularly easy to walk.
After walking for about two quarters of an hour, the crowd arrived.
Situ Yu looked up at the big mountain in front of him, the steep mountain walls on both sides went straight into the sky, stretching to both sides, high and low without seeing the end.
And in front of them is a gap, the gap is very neat, as if it has been repaired, everyone approached, the mouth of the valley is not big, on both sides are cliffs, the soldiers below with tree trunks, branches to make a simple high fence, there are more than two people high, the mountain pass is enclosed, only in the middle of the small door, that is, a branch woven wooden door.
There were several soldiers guarding the door, and they all covered their heads, faces and hands tightly.
In fact, if people want to leave from here, the door will not be blocked at all, but it will be just a thing.
But if you think about it, the soldiers inside are all terminally ill, and I'm afraid I won't be able to get out even if I want to!
Wang Yulin led the soldiers to greet the guards, who helped them open the small door, and then Wang Yulin and the others all wore masks.
Situ Yu and the others all had their own, and they also covered their mouths and noses, and went into the valley together.
After entering, a sudden opening up, inside is an arc-shaped valley, very large, empty, and flat, and the middle should also be rested, so there are no weeds, and there are dense woods next to the mountain wall.
Wang Yulin led Situ Yu and them to approach, there were many tents set up inside, arranged in a circle, each tent could accommodate about ten people, the outside of the tent was sprinkled with lime, smoked wormwood, and a large cauldron was supported next to it, and there was a fire burning underneath, and the pot was boiled brown with medicinal soup.
The further people walked inside, the stronger the smell of medicine became, and they could smell it through the masks.
Wang Yulin led Situ Yu and them to the big tent where the doctors lived together, and they all worked and lived there.
The doctor lived in a tent about a middle position, so that it was convenient to go to the tents to take care of it.
After entering, I saw that the day and the quiet were also there, discussing things with the doctors here.
When they saw them come in, they all stood up to meet them.
Situ Yu nodded at them, then went directly to sit on the main seat, and then took off his mask and looked at the daytime, "How is the situation?" ”
Daytime sighed, stroked his beard and frowned" "It's not very good! The main thing is that there is a lack of medicinal materials, I have just gone to diagnose some of them, that is, cholera, there is no doubt, but according to the different conditions of each person, they show different symptoms, there is cold, there is fever, I am explaining to them, let them try to separate the soldiers according to the situation, this will help treatment, but also save time! ”
Situ Yu nodded, in terms of diagnosis, only during the day is willing to treat, it is still very reliable!
Understanding the situation, Situ Yu looked at Wang Yulin and they ordered, "Let's go and see them together, so that they can know that the imperial court has not given up on them and will definitely do its best to treat them." ”
Wang Yulin looked at Situ Yu in embarrassment, "Cousin, don't go!" If we are infected, it is no joke, and we cannot afford such a big responsibility! ”
Su Yue and the others also nodded, thinking that he should not take this risk.
Situ Yu looked indifferent, stood up and walked to his side and glanced at him, his eyes were dark, "It's okay, I'm responsible for what happened, don't worry, I'll be fine!" Let's go! ”
Wang Yulin saw that he couldn't persuade him, and he was also helpless, so he had to follow them to the soldiers' tent.
Out of the camp tent, Wang Yulin led Situ Yu to the nearest one on the right hand side first.
After opening the curtain and entering, a sour smell came to the nostrils, even though everyone was wearing masks, it still made people's stomachs churn.
Because of this disease, they will constantly vomit and have diarrhea, sometimes the patient is too weak to go to the side place, the doctor has to prepare a clean bucket for them to put aside, and there is no special person to take care of it, the doctor is too busy and sometimes can't take care of cleaning, so the taste in the big tent is not very good.
There were no beds in the tents, and the soldiers slept on the ground, which was covered with a thick layer of straw leaves and a thin layer of dirt ash mattresses.
About ten soldiers were lying there shirtless, covered with quilts, I don't know whether they had slept or fainted, they all lay there without moving, and their exposed arms, although they were still dark, were a kind of morbid thinness.
Situ Yu walked a few tents, the soldiers were all in the same situation, weak and unconscious, he was originally prepared to reassure the soldiers, and told them that the imperial court would find a way to treat them.
But it doesn't matter, just prove it with practical actions!
After reading it, Situ Yu and Han Muyun left together, and they wanted to stay and help during the day.
Back at the station, Situ Yu returned to his tent and sat on a chair next to him with a low brow and pondered. Han Muyun looked at Situ Yu's solemn expression, and didn't bother him, and went out of the tent to check the situation around.
Situ Yu's eyes were solemn, thinking that the medicinal materials he raised were estimated to take two days to come.
The old general estimated that he would be fine in two days, and all they had to do was to stabilize the situation of the army first.
If the herbs can come back after two days, then he will start another plan of his own.
In addition to the soldiers, the surrounding people also have to be taken care of.
Situ Yu asked Xiao Jia to personally lead people to the surrounding towns to buy a batch of bedding and food, and send them to the people who were locked up in the broken temple waiting to die.
If other towns have such a situation, they will also send a batch so that they can maintain the basic food and drink.
He also took the time to check out the surrounding towns where the plague was occurring, and the people in the towns usually pulled the sick people away.
After being dragged away, they didn't care, and they didn't dare to care about their lives or deaths.
Two days later, in the morning, Xiao Gang personally escorted a batch of medicinal materials over, and Situ Yu asked them to send the medicinal materials to the garrison first, so that the soldiers in the garrison could see the medicinal herbs, so that their hearts could settle down, and then let them send them to the valley.
After noon, his luggage, as well as those precious medicinal materials and medicinal utensils during the day, were all sent over, and he sent someone to send them to the day.
The matter of treating the disease and saving people is going quite smoothly, and General Huo Lao is gradually recovering, but Situ Yu asked all those who know not to disclose the news, otherwise the military law will deal with it.
He wants to block the news and don't let anyone outside them know that the old general is all right!
Early in the morning of the third day, there was a cry in the big tent, and the old general died of illness!
When the remaining tens of thousands of soldiers heard the news, they were enthusiastic and vowed to avenge the old general.
The news of General Huo's death stimulated their emotions!
