Li Qi came to the front of the Xuanyuan Army and was stopped by two soldiers. One of them was already ready to take action. It seemed that if Li Qi did anything strange, he would pull out the steel knife from his waist.
Li Qi took out the jade talisman and handed it over and said, "I have something important to report to General Liang!"
After checking Li Qi's jade talisman, the two looked at each other, and one of them said: "You wait here for a while, I will inform the coach now."
Just as Li Qi was taking a breath, Tang Yun also rushed over: "Young Master..."
Li Qi glanced at her, rolled his eyes, pulled her aside and whispered: "Hurry back and meet with the monk now. Before the army withdraws, you must ensure that the monk spreads smallpox..."
Tang Yun nodded: "Okay, then I'll go back now."
Tang Yun got on his horse, and as soon as he left with his front legs, the soldiers who went to report with his back legs came back.
"The coach lets you go."
Li Qi followed the soldier into the army and soon saw Liang Fuhui.
I saw him wearing red armor, riding on a horse, looking straight ahead.
"Coach, Li's baggage is here."
Hearing this, Liang Fuhui turned his attention to Li Qi and asked with an intriguing look: "Why did Li Baggage come here? I heard that you have something important to report to me?"
Li Qi nodded and pretended to be anxious and said: "General Liang, something bad is going on! Someone in the camp has the plague!"
In this era, plague is synonymous with being more terrifying than war.
When Liang Fuhui heard Li Qi say that there was a plague in the rear, he was suddenly startled: "When did it happen?"
Li Qi shook his head and said: "I don't know, it should be the past few days."
"How did you know it was the plague?"
Li Qidao: "My subordinates have seen infected people in the southwest..."
Liang Fuhui frowned, not knowing how to make a decision for a moment.
And just as he was thinking, a messenger came to report: "Report! The enemy has broken through the siege and retreated to the mountain gate!"
Liang Fuhui was a little surprised by this news, while Li Qiti felt relieved.
Damn it, my cheap master finally returned it.
Liang Fuhui was a little confused, wondering whether he should order a pursuit.
Today, he did not plan to take down Feiyan Village in one fell swoop, but came here to test, wanting to see the power of the legendary vast sea.
In order to deal with the vast sea, he also specially prepared some means, but now they are of no use at all.
Liang Fuhui gritted his teeth and said: "Ming Jin withdraws the troops!"
After hearing the order, Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and then the Xuanyuan army began to prepare to retreat.
…
When Liu Yanyan returned to Feiyan Village, she was already a little exhausted. Even though she was very brave today and severely damaged many enemies, she herself did not feel any better.
The clothes on her body were still wet and covered with bright red blood. It was hard to tell whether it was her own or someone else's. Some of the blood was already covered with a layer of frost.
Standing on a small slope at the mountain gate, Liu Yanyan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the other party withdrawing their troops.
…
After the Xuanyuan Army returned to the camp, Liang Fuhui immediately summoned the military doctors and asked all the military doctors to investigate the source of the plague and count the number of infected people.
Li Qi was called to Liang Fuhui's tent. Liang Fuhui looked at him and asked, "You said someone was infected, who was it?"
Li Qi hesitated and said, "Subordinate..."
"Say!" Liang Fuhui said coldly.
Li Qi took a deep breath and said, "It's Deputy General Huang."
When he heard that Huang Jin was infected, Liang Fuhui couldn't help but be startled: "Is it him?"
"Yes, when I went to Deputy General Huang today, I found that his symptoms were similar to the plague, so I hurried to the front line to report." Li Qi said.
Liang Fuhui was a little embarrassed for a moment. He looked at Li Qi and asked, "Are you sure he has contracted the plague?"
"Sure."
Grandma's, even if he doesn't get smallpox, I will let him get it soon.
"Okay, you can keep this matter secret for the time being. Don't publicize it. I will handle it." Liang Fuhui said.
Li Qi cupped his hands and said, "I obey."
"Well, you've worked hard this time, go down and rest first."
"yes."
Li Qi came out of Liang Fuhui's tent and immediately found Wei Gang and Tang Yun.
"How is it?" Li Qi asked.
Wei Gang said: "I came back and captured a few people, knocked them unconscious, and poured smallpox directly into their mouths..."
Li Qi raised his thumb and said, "Monk, you did a great job this time."
Tang Yundao: "I also tampered with some dry food."
Li Qi nodded: "The incubation period of smallpox is seven to fourteen days, and there won't be many reactions for a while. Monk, please keep a close eye on it and report to me as soon as possible if there is any situation."
"yes."
After Wei Gang went out, Li Qi touched his chin and told Tang Yun what Liang Fuhui asked him just now.
After hearing this, Tang Yun asked: "Master, has he already doubted you?"
"Suspicion is certain, but the most he can do is doubt whether the news is true or false. As for my relationship with Feiyan Village, he can't possibly know." Li Qi said.
Tang Yun nodded and said: "Then Huang Jin's side..."
"I'm going over now to find a way to stabilize him first... You get ready, and we'll go to Feiyan Village at night."
"night?"
"Yes, time waits for no one. Who knows whether Liang Fuhui will continue to attack the stronghold tomorrow. I have to go back and discuss it with my master." Li Qi said.
"good."
…
Arriving at Huang Jin's tent, Huang Jin was lying leisurely on the bed and sleeping.
Li Qi woke him up, and Huang Jin asked, "How is it?"
"Today's battle almost led to an attack on Feiyan Village!" Li Qi said exaggeratedly.
"Where's the vast sea?"
"The other party seems useless." Li Qi said.
"It's no use?"
"Yes, I saw that Liang Fuhui was leading his army to attack the stronghold, so I hurried to find him. I told him that there was a plague in the army and asked him to offer gold to withdraw his troops." Li Qi said.
Huang Jin frowned: "Plague?"
Li Qi nodded: "Well, I also said that you have the plague..."
Huang Jin was a little confused and looked at Li Qi with a puzzled expression.
Li Qi hurriedly explained: "Brother, if he really leads the troops to attack the stronghold, wouldn't our trip be in vain? When we go back, my trip will be in vain at most, but what about you, eldest brother? You go back
He might even be punished... So in desperation, I had no choice but to declare that there was a plague spreading in the army."
After Huang Jin finished listening, he sat up and patted his thigh: "Brother! You are confused!"
"kindness?"
"The most I can do if I pretend to be sick and go back is to be punished, but if you lie about the military situation, you will be beheaded!" Huang Jin said anxiously.
"But brother, do you really want to watch Xuanyuan Army make great achievements?" Li Qi pretended to be unwilling to say, "Brother, I won't hide it from you, you should know that I am the prince's son...
"
Hearing this, Huang Jin rolled his eyes and seemed to have thought of something, and asked, "Brother, are you hiding something from me?"
