Three Kingdoms: Summon the Heroic Soul Yue Fei at the beginning

Chapter 245 The Aftermath of the War

Chapter 245 The Aftermath of the War

In Yanmen Pass, the war is over, but another war is about to begin.

The corpses inside and outside the city gates have been piled up for many days, and no one has cleaned them up. Slowly, these corpses began to become diseased, and what would happen after the final war appeared—the plague.

Plague, the aftermath of ancient wars, is caused by a large number of dead bodies that no one cleans up in the wilderness, which leads to disease.

Although Zhang Yan is a member of the Black Mountain Army, he also knew that the plague would break out if the war was not handled properly, so he sent his subordinate Zhang Deming to collect the corpses outside the city and burn them. As for Zhang Yan in the city, Haruko led such people to start collecting corpses It is also centralized processing.

None of the border residents objected to Zhang Yan's method of burning the corpses. They naturally knew what would happen if these corpses were not disposed of after a long history of war.

Many border residents even began to help Zhang Yan collect the corpses for centralized processing.

Three days passed quickly, and even though Zhang Yan was careful, many soldiers and border residents still had symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea.

This is the precursor of the plague. Many border residents, including Zhang Yan, panicked when they saw this scene. They panicked like never before.

The border residents didn't panic when the foreign race attacked, and they didn't panic when Gongsun Zan died, but they all panicked when they learned that the plague was about to break out. Some people started to collect and salute to prepare to escape. There was no order in the city.

"General, the city is in chaos now, and it's time for the general to make a decision."

Zhang Deming was very lucky not to be infected, so he came to Zhang Yan and reported the matter to Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan knew very well that if these border residents left Bingzhou, the whole Jizhou, and even the whole Han Dynasty would be finished.

"How many people are infected in the city now?"

Zhang Yan looked at Zhang Deming and asked.

"Back to the general, the number of infected people in the city has exceeded [-]%."

Zhang Deming replied blankly.

"Fifty percent?! Doesn't that mean that half of the people infected how many people and how many soldiers? Can we leave here?"

Zhang Yan's first thought was to retreat if his subordinates were not infected much. After all, he was a gangster, and even if he wanted to go to Yanmen Pass, he couldn't make fun of his brothers' lives.

Besides, he had tried his best to prevent the epidemic before, but the plague still appeared.

"Yes, General, our soldiers are the most infected. More than [-]%!"

Hearing this, Zhang Yan panicked. He didn't expect so many people. Seventy percent of the soldiers infected more than 3 people. You must know that these Montenegrin troops belong to his family. Unlike those ordinary people, he can abandon them at any time. He can't abandon any of these people.

"Then what should we do now?"

There was a trace of helplessness and sadness in Zhang Yan's eyes. The helplessness was that he had no way to deal with the plague, and the sadness was that he might be infected with the plague now.

Hearing what Zhang Yan said, Zhang Deming's eyes became hesitant, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.

"Deming, if you have anything to say, just say it."

As Zhang Deming's confidant, Zhang Yan naturally saw that Zhang Deming had something to say.

"My lord, I was lucky enough to experience a plague when I was young. I was in Liangzhou at that time, and a plague broke out in my hometown, and then I"

Zhang Deming hesitated to speak, Zhang Yan looked at Zhang Deming and asked.

"what happened?"

Zhang Deming wanted to speak but stopped again.

"Say."

Under Zhang Yan's persecution, Zhang Mingde spoke out.

"At the beginning, the county magistrate gathered all those infected people to kill and burn them!"

"Kill and burn?!"

"Correct."

The short four words made Zhang Yan feel like a boulder in his chest.

Seventy percent of the soldiers and half of the civilians, a total of 10,000+ people were killed like this?Although Zhang Yan is a bandit, he is not a butcher, and he does not have abnormal killing habits.

"Is there no other way?"

Zhang Yan asked with the last hope, but Zhang Deming shook his head in exchange.

"Oh, well, let's drag those seriously ill people out and kill them."

After saying this, Zhang Yan sat slumped on the chair, and then his body began to tremble, and tears began to flow out uncontrollably.

"Brothers, I'm sorry for you, but now there is no other way, it's the only way."

Just as Zhang Yan was crying bitterly, the soldiers walked in.

"Report! General Zhang Liao asks to see you."

Zhang Yan got up and wiped away her tears, sat up suddenly from the chair and said.

"What is he doing here?"

"Zhang Liao brought an old man over and said he has a solution to the plague in Chengcheng."

Zhang Yan stood up excitedly when she heard this.

"Let him in, quick!"

It turned out that when he received the news of the Wuhuan people's attack, Ye Xiao asked Zhang Liao to go around and prepare to take the Wuhuan people's hometown.

As for the old man, it was Zhang Zhongjing, the medical sage summoned by Ye Xiao through special summoning.

Because Zhang Liao had many wars in the frontier, Ye Xiao sent Zhang Zhongjing to Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao was overjoyed immediately after receiving news from Jinyiwei that the Black Mountain Army had sent troops to rescue Yanmen Pass.

But Zhang Zhongjing told him that there would usually be a plague after a war, and he wanted to go to Yanmen Pass to take a look just to be on the safe side.

Zhang Liao naturally agreed, so he took Zhang Zhongjing to Yanmen Pass. After entering Yanmen Pass, Zhang Zhongjing could see that the plague in Yanmen Pass had broken out.

So Zhang Liao went directly to the place where Zhang Yan lived to see Zhang Yan.

"Pedestrian doctor, Zhang Zhongjing has seen General Feiyan."

After Zhang Zhongjing saw Zhang Yan, he stepped forward to salute. Zhang Yan looked Zhang Zhongjing up and down, and found that he was wearing a coarse cloth, with a box around his waist, which seemed to be for medicine.

"Zhang Zhongjing?"

Zhang Yan shook her head, indicating that she had never heard of this person's name.

"Mr. Zhongjing is the marching doctor of our army and has saved many soldiers. He has a way of preventing and controlling the plague."

Seeing that Zhang Yan didn't believe Zhang Zhongjing, Zhang Liao immediately stepped forward to introduce him.

"Hehe, General Wen Yuan is absurd. I just do what I should do."

"I don't know if sir can control the situation here?"

At this time, Zhang Yan was already in a state of emergency medical treatment.

"Don't worry, general, the plague in Yanmen Pass has only just appeared, and it is very simple to cure."

"I don't know what sir needs?"

"I need the general to cooperate with me."

Zhang Zhongjing said with confidence.

Seeing that Zhang Zhongjing was so confident, Zhang Yan took out her waist card and handed it to Zhang Zhongjing and said.

"This is my waist card. If you need anyone, sir, feel free to adjust it. If you need it, I have no problem."

Seeing Zhang Yan's trust, Zhang Zhongjing stepped forward and cupped his hands.

"Thank you General Zhang for your trust. I need about [-] soldiers to help me here, and I hope that the general will order people who know medicinal materials in the city to come to the general to listen to me."

"No problem, Deming, please cooperate with Mr. Zhongjing."

After Zhang Deming received the order, he followed Zhang Zhongjing and Zhang Liao out of Zhang Yan's mansion.
