Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 522
[Chapter 522 Turning Crisis into Opportunity]
“No wonder His Highness wants to be the first to be vaccinated?”
Yanguan General’s Mansion, where Zhao Xu lives temporarily.
At this moment, Shi Zhengui was feeling Zhao Xu’s pulse, Mo Yu was standing beside him, and there were also some small pustules on the back of his hand.
“No, if it weren’t for His Highness and the generals to behave like this, I’m afraid the soldiers will rebel.” Mo Yu smiled wryly.
Not to mention the soldiers, even when he first developed small pustules, he was a little scared.
“Don’t worry, it’s just a little uncomfortable, it will be fine in a few days.” Zhao Xu looked calm and calm.
Cows that get vaccinia will not die, how can people die.
But it’s certain to suffer.
The vaccinating situation this time was about the same as he expected.
Generally speaking, it takes eight or nine days to get sick after coming into contact with objects containing smallpox virus.
It only takes three days for vaccinia to develop symptoms.
After all, the virus has entered the body directly, and the concentration is quite high.
On the ninth day, the small pustules on the body can scab and fall off, and I have been immune to smallpox since then.
After finishing speaking, he jumped off the bed and patrolled Yanguan with Mo Yu.
People are always full of fear of the unknown.
He is fearless because he understands these things.
But Mo Yu and the others are different.
After all, even in contemporary times, there are many people who are afraid of vaccines.
Another week.
The small pustules on Zhao Xu’s body really fell off, and he felt refreshed.
Next, the pustules on the soldiers healed one after another.
All of them had smiles on their faces.
“Your Highness, I found a large number of Beidi cavalry coming towards Yanguan.” On
the third day of Zhao Xu’s recovery, Mo Yu suddenly hurried to his bedroom early in the morning.
“It’s finally here.” Zhao Xu narrowed his eyes, “Let all the recovered soldiers climb the city wall.”
The recovered soldiers in the past few days are basically the soldiers who were vaccinated on the first day and the second day, probably close to 5,000 .
Among them, artillery, fusiliers, and heavy infantry are all available, which can be said to be a complete range of arms.
Even if Beidi launches an all-out attack on the city, these five thousand soldiers can still stand up for a while.
But now, Beidi came with cavalry, which basically verified his second guess.
Beidi is going to use light cavalry to shoot things with smallpox at the city wall.
Climb the wall.
Zhao Xu and Mo Yu picked up the binoculars and looked to the north.
Sure enough, a black line appeared at the end of the field of vision.
The black line gradually approached, and he found that these cavalry were divided into three groups: left, middle and right.
The cavalry on the left and right are far away from the cavalry in the middle.
Obviously, the cavalry in the middle was responsible for poisoning.
“Your Highness, do you want to fight?” Mo Yu asked.
Shaking his head, Zhao Xu said: “It’s necessary to fight, but don’t really fight, let them think that their plan has succeeded.”
Mo Yu understood and immediately passed on the order.
Half an hour later, the Beidi cavalry arrived outside Yanguan City.
At this time, the Beidi cavalry suddenly dispersed and formed a very sparse formation.
Zhao Xu knew that they were doing this to avoid the artillery attack and reduce casualties.
“Boom boom boom…”
The artillery on the city wall still roared, but compared to the wartime, these artillery fires were obviously disorderly, the shells flew randomly, and there was no line.
After a burst of shelling, only a few unlucky ghosts were hit and fell in a pool of blood.
And when the artillery bombarded the Beidi cavalry.
The Beidi cavalry on the middle road rushed towards Yanguan one after another.
They raised their bows and entered a distance of 100 meters, and they shot their bows and arrows at the head of Yanguan City.
“Whoosh…” There was a sound of piercing through the air.
Bows and arrows fell from the sky like locusts.
However, because they were shooting at a long distance, these arrows had no force when they fell, and caused no casualties to the soldiers.
The two sides fought back and forth for a while, Beidi left hundreds of corpses and fled.
None of the soldiers at Yanguan City were injured, but there were arrows everywhere.
“Hahaha…” Zhao Xu and Mo Yu looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
This is Beidi’s strategy.
It is estimated that, like the bows and arrows soaked in feces, these arrows may have touched the pus of smallpox patients.
Judging from the number of arrows, it is estimated that Beidi carefully prepared for several days after the slave soldiers were dispatched.
“Your Highness, it all depends on you, otherwise Yanguan will suffer disaster this time.” Mo Yu sneered at the same time, and was afraid for a while.
If they hadn’t been vaccinated, those arrows would be a real pain in the ass.
I am afraid that Yanguan will really experience a big plague.
Even this plague will spread to other places in Yanzhou.
Thinking of Beidi being so vicious, he said again: “Your Highness, Beidi is so devoid of conscience, this time it is better to repay him in his own way, let a cavalry go to Ningcheng, and return these arrows to them.”
Zhao Xu heard the words , Shaking his head, “Don’t forget, there are many of my great people in Ningjindusi. Beidi people deserve to die, but they shouldn’t be subject to indiscriminate disasters. Moreover, after this king took down Ningjindusi, he still counted on them to run Ningjindusi. Jin Dusi.”
Mo Yu patted his head, he almost forgot about it.
Among the 2 million Xiliang people who migrated to Ningjindusi, most of them were Dasong people looted from Xiliang. Ningjindusi originally had more than 500,000 Dasong people.
If smallpox spread, Beidi would kill the smallpox sufferers and flee northward.
But these people will suffer.
“It’s just that the last general really can’t swallow this breath.” Mo Yu stomped her feet.
Zhao Xu smiled, and patted him on the shoulder, “But this king has a more ruthless method, which will definitely make Beidi pay a heavy price.”
Mo Yu’s eyes lit up immediately, a little impatiently, “Is it still possible?” Please make it clear, Your Highness.”
Zhao Xu then whispered a few words to Mo Yu.
The more Mo Yu listened, the more excited she became, and in the end she almost laughed out of her ears.
“Hahaha, high, it’s really high. If so, maybe I can take the opportunity to win Ning Jin Dusi this time, and I can make a lot of money.” Mo Yu couldn’t stop laughing.
There was also a smile on the corner of Zhao Xu’s mouth.
Crisis, crisis, now that he has turned the corner, all that is left for him is an opportunity.
…
Jincheng.
Mule Hongzhen was standing on the wall of Jincheng at the moment, looking south.
Ulan Ba was by his side, and the Tiemu Pagoda was also there, but it was far away from his position.
“It’s time for our cavalry to arrive at the city of Yanguan.” Mu Lehong suddenly couldn’t help getting excited.
He was already imagining that the Yanguan soldiers picked up the arrows, and the smallpox was passed from the arrows to these Yanguan soldiers.
Immediately, a plague broke out throughout Yanguan.
The soldiers were confused because of this, and rushed out of Yanguan desperately to escape.
These soldiers brought smallpox to all parts of Yanzhou, even Yancheng.
It would be best if King Yan Zhao Xu was also infected and died.
Thinking of this, he felt more and more at ease.
From the time the King of Yan arrived in Yanzhou, he kept losing.
His resentment towards the King of Yan, Zhao Xu, has reached the point of driving him crazy.
This time, he finally got his revenge.
