Get rich lying down, my supermarket knows everything from ancient times to the present

After hearing someone say this, the rest of the people also agreed.

Just like that, everyone made up their minds and headed towards Yancheng.

Many people died in the chaos just now, and they walked forward over the corpses of their former comrades.

“Save…save me…cough cough.”

As they walked along, they saw many injured comrades asking for help.

Everyone lent a hand and carried the injured out from the pile of dead bodies.

Of course, among those who were asking for help, there were also people with blood constantly flowing out of their mouths and noses.

Everyone looked frightened and didn't dare to take a step forward.

"We are so close to him. We are not going to be infected with the Black Death."

There is no one in Xiling who does not know how terrible the Black Death was.

"Why do I feel pain all over my body?"

"Me too! Ahem! The old people say that if you get the Black Death, you will cough, cough, cough constantly and have a high fever that won't go away."

After hearing someone say this, many people suddenly felt uncomfortable all over.

"What should we do? We are not really going to die here!"

Everyone stood there hesitating for a while, and then someone spoke up: "Don't scare yourselves! We're going to die anyway, so why not take those infected with the Black Death with us. Suo Xiuming is also in Yancheng. Even if you and I are unfortunately infected with the Black Death, we will be fine with the great doctor in charge!"

·······

"Master Hou."

After explaining all the relevant matters, Mr. Suo spoke to the other end of the phone again:

"If our ancestor Xiuming has written down a new prescription that requires decoction, please let us know. The Suo family has enough machines to make thousands of decoctions in just two hours."

······

"Thank you very much. When Yancheng is out of this disaster, I will personally thank you all."

The world a thousand years later is indeed extraordinary.

If Yancheng had suffered such a disaster before, the entire city would have been destroyed.

But now with the help of the descendants of the Suo family, not only can the injured receive timely treatment, but everyone in Yancheng can also get enough preventive decoctions.

Now it seems that the Black Death is nothing to be afraid of.

Sheng Huaigui picked up the phone and said the last words to the other end: "Miss Jiang, please don't worry about me. The night is dark, you should sleep well to recuperate. When the dawn breaks tomorrow, I will definitely bring you good news."

Miss Jiang was a thoughtful and kind girl, and he was afraid that because of him, she would not be able to rest well all night.

After hanging up the phone, Sheng Huaigui stuffed the safety lock that Jiang Qingli gave him into his arms, then put on protective clothing and left the study.

Right now, he couldn't just stay in the study.

He wanted to go personally to give the people and soldiers a reassurance.

·······

With the help of the special medicine, at dawn the next day, the soldier who first showed symptoms had regained consciousness and his high fever had subsided.

Apart from feeling a little weak, I didn't feel any other discomfort.

Even more fortunately, thanks to Sheng Huaigui's timely arrangements and mobilizations, after one night, except for the five soldiers who were seriously ill at the beginning, there was no sixth patient in Yancheng.

But Sheng Huaigui did not relax his vigilance. He strictly followed what the descendants of the Suo family said last night and asked all the people in the city to remain isolated at home.

Fortunately, before the Black Death broke out, he obtained a new batch of food and mineral water from Jiang Qingli.

These things have already been distributed to every household and there is no problem in sustaining them for half a month.

Sheng Huaigui had already taken the medicine prepared by Suo Xiuming, and at this moment he personally led people to spray disinfectant near the military doctor.

Use a small spray bottle to spray carefully inside and out.

The agricultural drones that were previously filled with pepper spray have now all been cleaned and replaced with diluted disinfectant.

Operated by several nimble soldiers, they spray disinfectant on the streets to kill bacteria and disinfect.

It was at this time that a subordinate came to report that several thousand Xiling soldiers had arrived outside the city gate.

Upon hearing the news, Sheng Huaigui frowned.

Could it be that Kurban’s withdrawal of troops last night was just a smoke screen, and he actually wanted to take this opportunity to capture Yancheng?

But a few thousand people is too few.

Sheng Huaigui felt puzzled, so he turned and walked towards the city wall.

He wanted to find out for himself.

·······

This group of abandoned Xiling soldiers carried their wounded and sick comrades on their backs and walked all night, finally arriving outside Yancheng at dawn.

The will to survive overcame everything. The injured man, who was originally suffering from high fever and body aches, saw the city gate of Yancheng and forced himself to stand up.

At this time, everyone's eyes turned to one person - Han Pojun.

He was originally a captain under Kurban, but he had just dismounted from his horse to help an innocent soldier who was shot and wounded last night, and was then ruthlessly abandoned by Kurban.

He even had injuries on his body.

Han Pojun took a deep breath and shouted loudly at the city wall with all his strength:

"The army was suddenly hit by the black plague, and the marshal abandoned us. We are begging you to be merciful and give us shelter. We know that Yancheng has suffered a lot in the recent siege, but if you can help us and let us survive, no matter what you ask, we will have no complaints and will repay you with our lives. From now on, we will go through fire and water and die without hesitation, and we only hope that you will have mercy on us."

······

The voices from outside the city reached Sheng Huaigui's ears word by word. As soon as he climbed onto the city wall, he saw thousands of people outside the city kneeling on the ground in unison and bowing to him.

Seeing this, Sheng Huaigui's brows deepened.

He wondered if what the people outside the city said was true.

······

Seeing Sheng Huaigui appear on the city wall, everyone's eyes showed expectation.

Han Pojun knelt at the head of the crowd. He could naturally understand Sheng Huaigui's worries.

He immediately knelt forward a few steps, then clenched his fists and raised them above his head, and said to Sheng Huaigui on the city wall:

"I know your worries, but these soldiers are all from poor families and they only obey the orders of the commander. I am a captain in the Xiling army. If you want to seek revenge, please only blame me. I will obey your decision on killing and cutting, and I have no complaints. I only ask you to show mercy and give them a chance to live."

······

Looking at the appearance of more than a thousand people outside the city, some injured or sick, like lost dogs, it was indeed as the man under the city said.

"Master Hou."

The secret guard suddenly came to Sheng Huaigui and knelt down to salute.

Sheng Huaigui: "Did Kurban really withdraw his troops?"

The secret guard reported truthfully: "My Lord, after the battle last night, Kurban sounded the horn to withdraw his troops. During the hasty retreat, a soldier in the Xiling army was indeed infected with a disease similar to the Black Death. Kurban then abandoned thousands of sick and weak soldiers and led the army to march away quickly. Now they are more than 300 miles away from Yancheng."
