Chapter 263(2/2)
Unfortunately, when Liu Yan sent someone to Nanyang to invite Zhang Zhongjing, he had already been taken to the front by the Kanto Alliance.
The reason why Liu Yan was able to save Jia Xu was not because she really cured Jia Xu's epidemic, but only used medicine stones and acupuncture to enhance Jia Xu's physiological functions and immunity so that he could achieve the final victory in the fight against the disease. That's all! Medicine stones that can enhance physiological functions are extremely precious, and acupuncture is extremely physically exhausting. Liu Yan could not provide large-scale treatment to the entire Xiliang army with his own strength.
"Huh, I'm so stupid~~"
Jia Xu sighed a long time and finally woke up quietly.
"Brother, you're awake, woo-woo-~~"
Seeing that Jia Xu finally woke up, Jia Ming couldn't help but cry with joy.
Jia Xu miraculously sat up (Liu Yan gave a big tonic and used acupuncture to relieve muscles and promote blood circulation). He looked around and saw Gao Shun, Xu Chu, Hu Chier, Wang Fang and other generals were all in the tent. Liu Yan also stood on the side in a pretty face. Jia Xu bowed and said respectfully: "Xu meets the wife."
Liu Yan replied with a tribute, "Sir, don't give me a gift."
As soon as Jia Xu woke up, the first thing he was concerned about was the Kanto army in front of Hangu Pass, so he asked Gao Shun: "General Gao Shun, what is the situation of the Kanto army outside Hangu Pass?"
Gao Shun's long-time general on the battlefield also looked frightened and said to Jia Xu: "Military advisor, the Kwantung Army has withdrawn from Luoyang, but~~"
"But how?"
"But there are probably not more than 50,000 people who can return to Luoyang alive in the end. Even these 50,000 people may not have survived for a few days." Xu Chu took the conversation, his eyes were dull and he continued, "The casualties of our army are also heavy, and now there are only a thousand people who can breathe in the pass."
"What? Only a thousand people are left!?" Jia Xu was startled at first, and then sighed, "It's really a sin."
Liu Yan's expression moved, and if she glanced at Jia Xu with a deep sense, she wanted to ask Jia Xu if the plague was man-made, but she still swallowed it back when she was at her mouth. After Liu Yan followed Ma Yue for a long time, she developed a habit. As a woman of Ma Yue, it is best not to interfere too much in political affairs.
Luoyang.
After Zhang Ji's emergency treatment, the sick princes such as Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Tao Qian, and important counselors such as Xun You, Cheng Yu, and Chen Gong finally turned into danger and had no worries about their lives for the time being. However, Zhang Ji was powerless to do anything about the 30,000 Kwantung Army who were lying in Luoyang City and waiting for death, so he could only let him die.
Late at night, Cao Cao's tent.
Zhang Ji said to Cao Cao with a serious expression: "Prime Minister, the plague is as fierce as a flood, and it is related to the life and death of the people in the world. You must be careful. I think that you should temporarily stop the army with the Liangzhou Legion now. It is the most important thing to work together to control the spread of the epidemic. Otherwise, if the spread of the spread to the surrounding Yan, Yu, Jing, Yang, Ji and Liang states will be unimaginable."
"Cough cough cough~~" Cao Cao coughed violently for a while and asked panting, "I am just thinking about this, but I don't know how to control the plague."
Zhang Ji said: "You can defend Hulao Pass to the east, Luoshui to the south, river to the north, Hangu Pass to the west, so that the epidemic can be controlled in Luoyang and the capital area. It is now July. In just two months, the weather will gradually cool in September, and the plague will not be worrying."
Cao Cao nodded and Haoran sighed: "Thinking about it now, it's really thanks to Mr. Jia, who actually migrated all the people into Guanzhong first, making the Luoyang City and the Jingji area a wasteland. If not, once the plague spreads, how can it be controlled?"
Speaking of this, Cao Cao still felt a chill on his back.
At this time, Cao Cao was indeed grateful to Jia Xufeng. If it weren't for this, Yan and Henan Provinces were densely populated and close to Luoyang, the capital, and they would never be able to escape the raging plague. Once the plague spreads, even if the people of the two states did not die, they would probably be very little left. At that time, what should Cao Cao use to compete for the world?
I just don’t know, what should Cao Cao think when he knew that the plague that destroyed the 300,000 Kwantung Army in a while was actually planned by Dushi Jia?
In July of the fifth year of Jian'an (192), Emperor Xian of Han, history will be recorded forever!
