The epidemic situation in Yuyang Camp is now under control, and treatment will be done step by step.
What's left is the county soldiers' barracks. There are five thousand people, which is also a problem. The military discipline of the county soldiers is not very good.
When the Yuyang Jiaqi received a military order to close the military camp, they would be frustrated and angry, but they would abide by the military order.
The county soldiers don't know how. They have had troubles several times, and I heard many people died.
The prefect Zhang Ju is a local tycoon in Yuyang. He has power and prestige. There are people with land and private soldiers, but he can't suppress him. He mobilized his private soldiers into the city and besieged the county soldiers' barracks. The scale of the conflict became larger and larger.
, people were killed on both sides, I heard there were hundreds.
No one dares to go in now.
The county soldiers were in chaos, and there were countless forces in the chaos, each with their own ideas.
There are Han people who want to go home, some Hu people who want to flee beyond the Great Wall, some who want to stay in the camp, some who want to stand out and turn into bandits, and there are also Yellow Turbans who want to start an uprising. No one can take charge, and they don't even know.
What do they want?
I'm afraid, they themselves don't know.
Panic is spreading, and if it continues like this, the camp will be bombed.
………
The seventh day of March is the sixth day of entering Yuyang Camp.
Two more critically ill patients died and their bodies had to be burned.
Cui Yi led people to place a pyre in the school grounds and cremate them here. After the epidemic is over, the ashes will be returned to their families.
Most of the asymptomatic sergeants came to see them off.
Everyone worked in silence, lit the fire in silence, and watched in silence as they were burned to ashes.
Cui Yi put their ashes into clay pots, tied them with linen cloth, tied up the cloth strips with their names and hometowns, and sent them to a specially vacated room.
There will be people sent in in the future, they are not the first, and they will not be the last.
Liu Xiang watched quietly from the side. There were still more than 200 people who were seriously ill. These two hundred people could turn into ashes in jars at any time. They didn't take medicine until they got sick for several days. The treatment was too late. Everything was ruined.
It just depends on their will to survive.
Cui Yi walked to Liu Xiang and asked, "Is Liu Jun leaving?"
"Yes, the prefect ordered me to enter the county soldiers' barracks today."
Cui Yi frowned and said angrily: "This is to die!"
More than half of the private soldiers that the prefect had blocked off the county barracks were dead or wounded, and there were less than 500 people available, so they could no longer suppress them.
Therefore, Liu Xiang received the order to enter the county army barracks today.
The prefect Zhang Ju didn't think Liu Xiang could quell the county soldiers. He just wanted to try all the methods he could think of. The worst thing he could do was send an official's head in to see if he could temporarily quell the anger of the county soldiers.
Who let Liu Xiang bear the title of Cao Yu?
Who told Liu Xiang to be a civilian with no background?
Although he was recruited only a few days ago, he is the best candidate now, and there will be no hidden dangers if he dies.
These powerful people from aristocratic families never take human life seriously.
No, it should be said that in their eyes, the lives of ordinary people do not count at all, they are just dead. They never care.
There were soldiers from the prefect at the gate of the camp, and he could not tolerate his refusal.
Liu Xiang felt miserable in his heart. Why is it so difficult to live in this damned world? Going to the Junbing barracks may mean a narrow escape, but disobeying orders will lead to death.
Cui Yi came closer again and whispered in Liu Xiang's ear: "If Liu Jun wants to go far away, Cui and his brothers are willing to escort you out. The armored cavalry rushes into the formation, but the trash at the door can't stop it. Liu Jun has something
Those who are capable must not die at the hands of villains.”
Liu Xiang shook his head and said, "There is a crossbow formation outside the camp gate. Brother Cui cannot risk his life in vain."
"Liu Jun, Mr. Cui is not afraid of death. Mr. Liu saved the lives of brothers such as Mr. Liu. Brothers are not ungrateful. As long as Jun Liu opens his mouth, Mr. and Mrs. Cui will go through fire and water, and they will die!"
Liu Xiang was very touched. It was really rare for someone to be willing to fight for him.
He also felt despicable and felt sorry for these people.
Blinking quickly, holding back the soreness in his nose, he said: "Brother Cui must not do this. There are many sick people in the camp and they need to be taken care of carefully. Although the epidemic seems stable, it is actually very dangerous and dangerous. We must not take it lightly.
Even if someone seems to be cured, they must remain in isolation and observe whether there is a recurrence.
Brother Cui must be more careful after I leave, and the camp must not be disturbed, otherwise the plague will flow out, and all lives will be destroyed, and it will be all my fault."
Seeing that Cui Yi was still unhappy, he smiled and said: "This time I enter the county army barracks. Although it is dangerous, I may not die. Brother Cui, don't worry."
After saying that, without waiting for Cui Yi to speak, he patted Cui Yi's arm and said, "I'm going. Brother Cui doesn't need to see me off."
If there are words, it will be long; if there are no words, it will be short.
Liu Xiang took two guards to the county soldiers' barracks. As soon as he entered the camp, he was surrounded by people.
Liu Xiang did not dare to take action, but shouted loudly: "I am here to cure the plague, and I want to see you in charge."
While they were pushing and shoving, they suddenly heard someone shouting: "Don't hurt him, don't hurt him, take him to the army." Everyone grabbed him and walked towards the camp.
Not long after, I entered a house and met the military lord described by the county soldiers. He was a rather old officer in his forties.
Liu Xiang straightened out his clothes and said, "My name is Liu Xiang. I have been ordered by the prefect to control the plague. Are you the chief of the camp?"
The military lord did not get up and looked Liu Xiang up and down.
"Is this little kid here to die? It's such a pity at such a young age."
"A plague breaks out in the camp. Instead of thinking about how to cure the disease, you are killing people indiscriminately. What's the point? When the epidemic spreads, everyone will die in the military camp. Is that what you want?"
"Shut up!" the military lord was furious.
"Don't we want to live? The army was infected with the epidemic. At first, no one was treated, but within two days they all ran away.
Those officials from aristocratic families left us in the camp and ignored us. Even if we wanted to go out to seek medical advice, they would not allow us to go out. Instead, they sent private soldiers to surround the military camp. They just hoped that we would die. If we all died, there would be no plague.
Already."
Liu Xiang didn't know how to answer. Those powerful people from aristocratic families were indeed not human beings, but he was not a son of aristocratic families. He would not take the blame.
Then he said urgently: "I am not a son of a noble family. I am entering the camp alone now just to treat the plague. The patients are still struggling. I don't want to talk to you. Take me to see the patient's condition quickly. This is the top priority."
"You are so arrogant, do you think I dare not kill you?"
Liu Xiang found that this man was just tough on words, but in fact he was afraid in his heart.
"Kill me, and you will continue to wait for death in the camp."
"We can survive by rushing out of Yuyang."
Liu Xiang said disdainfully: "Yuyang Jiaqi is just outside the city. You can rush out and die."
The military lord stopped immediately, gasping for breath and speechless.
Liu Xiang finally understood why these county soldiers did not dare to rebel. Many of them fell ill and fled, and the remaining people no longer dared to face the armored cavalry.
They didn't know that the plague also broke out in the Jiaqi camp outside the city, so they only dared to make trouble with the prefect's private soldiers at the gate of the camp. As for what the consequences would be, they no longer dared to think about it.
The plague in the camp and the armored cavalry outside the city were driving them crazy.
After thinking about this, Liu Xiang felt at ease. It was great that he didn't have to die.
Now they just need to wait. When they calm down, they will realize that Liu Xiang is their only life-saving straw. At that time, things will be easier to handle.
The commander of the county army finally took a breath, waved his hand, and ordered his subordinates: "Press down and lock him up."
Liu Xiang said nothing and was escorted to a small room by several soldiers.
Wait, don't worry anymore, just take a good nap. I worked hard the past few days and couldn't rest well at all.
