My Koi Fish Wife
Chapter 371 371, Plague
"No, Marshal!"
A soldier rushed in with an anxious look on his face.
Wang Weihua frowned and said with a sullen face, "What's all the fuss about?"
Xiao Bing blushed, took several breaths, and then reported hurriedly, "Yong'an County sent a secret report, saying that a plague has appeared in the county. Now hundreds of people have suffered from high fever and vomiting. In severe cases, they have even vomited blood. Symptoms, initial guess is plague!”
"What!!" Wang Weiguo was shocked.
Plague is extremely contagious, and it is said that there is no cure at all, except for slowly waiting to die.
The clan members also looked surprised and seemed to be confused, "Our southwest region has a mild climate and a vast territory with few people. How could the plague occur? It's more like the plague appearing in the east, but it's impossible here."
Another older Wang family member was also puzzled, "Yes, even our father's generation has never heard of the plague. On the contrary, there have been avalanches and hail in the north, and there have been two plagues in the east. But we have The Southwest has always been good.”
"It's such a coincidence that the plague appeared. We were about to attack Anju Town when the plague appeared in Yong'an County. Didn't this block our way?"
Wang Weiguo was very surprised. The route to Anju Town had to pass through Yong'an County. If the plague really appeared in Yong'an County, how would their team pass?
If a team of more than 2,000 people really passes through Yong'an County, wouldn't it be completely wiped out? That's a slap in the face.
The adjutant who followed Wang Weiguo followed the second young master's words and guessed, "Could it be the fault of those thieves? Deliberately causing a plague to force us back?"
"It's possible! Maybe it's not a plague at all, it's just a superficial phenomenon they deliberately created." Wang Weiguo listened to his subordinates' words and felt that they made sense.
Wang Weihua, who was sitting at the top, looked concerned, "Do you think it's possible? It was only three days ago that we decided to attack Anju Town, and it takes six or seven days to travel from Rongcheng to Anju Town.
Besides, except for a few of our key people who know about the attack on Anju Town, the people below have never made it public at all. Furthermore, even if there is a spy in our team, how do you think they pass on the news? "
The communication methods of this era were still very backward. Although there were landline telephones passed down from Westerners, not every household could have them.
Except for important core cadres, the rest are not qualified at all.
"." Wang Weihua's words instantly left everyone speechless. They had indeed ignored this issue.
So, the plague in Yongan County was not caused by the surname Yan? Is that true? !
If it was true, how could they attack Anju Town? Doesn’t it mean that the plague must be resolved first before we can pass?
For a moment, everyone fell silent, because the problem of plague was not something they could solve if they wanted to.
Wang Weihua sighed, he did not expect that he would encounter the plague during his reign. This would completely leave a stain on his career.
Clan member of the Wang family: "Now that the matter has come to this, let's simply close down the county. The situation has not yet reached a large-scale outbreak. If it's too late, I'm afraid the plague will spread to other places."
Another clan member echoed, "Yes, just trap people to death in the county and block the source of the plague. When everyone dies of the disease, the county can return to a new round of business."
Wang Weiguo nodded, "The clan elder is right. Now that the situation has come to an end, we have no other choice but to sacrifice some of their lives in exchange for the safety of the entire Shu capital. I think we might as well set it on fire." Well, it’s easier and more convenient this way.”
Wang Weihua looked at his younger brother in surprise, obviously not agreeing with his proposal.
"Yong'an County is infected with the plague. Those are the people in our Wang family's territory. It is appropriate to close the city, but setting it on fire is a bit cruel. Besides, there are innocent people inside. If we do that, I am afraid it will arouse public outrage."
Wang Weiguo said with a stern face, "Brother, the whole county is sealed off. Even if they have grievances, they have no chance to go out of the city to spread rumors. If you ask me, you are just too kind and worry too much.
If the matter in Yong'an County is not resolved early, when will our team be able to recover Anju Town? If that brat surnamed Yan takes advantage of this period to recruit troops, wouldn't he be raising a tiger's head? "
After hearing what the Second Young Master said, several clan elders also sided with him this time. When it came to the foundation of the Wang family, they had to use some extraordinary measures.
"Second Young Master is right."
"We support the Second Young Master's proposal."
Seeing that everyone supported his second brother's idea, Wang Weihua sighed secretly and expressed his helplessness.
——
Yan Xiangxiang learned about the plague from Liu Caijin the next day.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for Liu Caijin, a foreigner, to know about such things, but he can't help it. Liu Caijin is very good at interpersonal communication, and he is willing to spend money.
When he sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the Marshal's Mansion, he spent money to inquire about it.
This time, he was anxious!
Because they are from Yong'an County, although he and his son are safe, the old mother, wife and children at home are still in Yong'an County.
What's more, his family's textile factory is also in Yong'an County, and now the county is probably in chaos.
He was not at home, and he didn't know if the housekeeper could handle it. The eldest son was already an adult, but he brought him out to see the world, and he also wanted him to show his face in front of the marshal, so that he might get a chance to make contributions.
The youngest son who stays at home is only twelve years old this year and cannot support himself at all.
Liu Caijin was very anxious and wanted to go back immediately to save people. If it was too late, the people in the Marshal's Mansion would seal off the city and set fire to it.
"Cousin, don't worry, I have a way."
"Do you have any idea?" Liu Caijin expressed doubt.
Yan Xiangxiang stood up and straightened her clothes, "You can only know if it works or not by trying it. Cousin, just sit here and wait for my good news."
Yan Xiangxiang walked towards the Marshal's Council Hall, with a sweet smile on his lips and even his eyes brightened a lot.
He looked obviously in a good mood.
Yan Xiangxiang is indeed in a very happy mood at the moment, because she has been waiting for an opportunity to make Yan Ze's couple irrevocable! !
Sure enough, God favored her and knew the suffering she had suffered, so he gave her such a good opportunity.
Aren’t the couple very popular with the people? Aren’t you loved and respected by the people?
Then she wanted to see how the people would treat them in times of crisis?
She wanted to watch the couple fall from the sky into dust.
