Chapter 133 The army is coming
Longcheng
For ten whole days, there was no reply from the capital, let alone reinforcements.

Yun Qianyi worked all night to diagnose and treat the patient, and together with the old master Li, he prescribed medicine, gave acupuncture, and saved lives.

He had lost a lot of weight, and his beautiful eyes were bloodshot.

This disease is different from previous epidemics, and the symptoms presented by each person are slightly different.

It may be high fever, vomiting, or coughing, and the order of onset is also different.

The same prescription works for one group of people but not for another.

But the worst thing for Longcheng is that some people who are infected with the disease do not have any symptoms, but are highly contagious and will infect people around them.

At noon, Yun Qianyi and the old Sect Master Li sat in the house to rest. After being busy for three hours, they could finally take a break.

At this time, two maids opened the door and bowed respectfully.

One of them held tea and the other held a lunch box.

After putting it down, the maid who served the tea looked at Yun Qianyi deeply before closing the door.

It was not until the person next to him urged him that he slowly closed the door and left.

"Girl, this disease is really strange, and the source has not been found yet."

While Master Li was gnawing on a chicken leg, he picked up the teapot and poured milk tea for Yun Qianyi.

Yun Qianyi looked at the contents of the medical book, took the teacup handed to her by the old master Li, took a sip of the milk tea with double the sugar, and felt the sweetness in her heart.

This was specially prepared for her by Jun Yanci. He felt sorry for how hard she had been working these days. Even during her meal time, she could only squeeze out a few bites before being called back to see the doctor.

One morning, Yun Qianyi got up in a hurry and almost fainted when she got out of bed, but she startled Jun Yanci.

Fortunately, he answered quickly, otherwise Yun Qianyi would have to kowtow.

"Where is the first family that got sick now?"

Yun Qianyi knew Meng Chen's abilities, so logically, he should have found out about it a long time ago.

"Miss Yun, there are people sick in the streets of the east, west, south and north. They all developed the symptoms on the same day. In addition, the speed of transmission is too fast, so we cannot be sure where it came from."

Xuan Liu was ordered to stay with Yun Qianyi all the time and be responsible for delivering information between the east and west.

As the defending general of Longcheng, Meng Chen must not allow anything to happen.

Recently, he has been following Jun Yanci, deploying defenses around Longcheng to prevent a sudden attack from Xiyuan.

It's strange to say, but we haven't seen the Xiyuan army on the river bank on the Sucheng side. Although Longcheng is on land, we still need to be more prepared just in case.

In such a sensitive period when two countries have declared war, nothing can be a coincidence.

"Go check."

Yun Qianyi believed in Xuan Liu. As the head of the secret guards in the Eastern Palace Prince's Mansion, Xuan Liu would definitely be able to do it.

"This number will not be small. Thank you for your hard work, but please make sure to record every detail."

Xuan Liu naturally knew the seriousness of the situation and did not dare to delay, so he immediately turned around and walked out the door.

Old Sect Master Li looked at Yun Qianyi's slightly flushed cheeks. It was already autumn, and the weather was not hot.

Just when he was about to touch Yun Qianyi's forehead, a guard suddenly rushed in from outside the door.

"Master Li, Doctor Yun, a new group of patients have arrived. Please go and take a look!"

Yun Qianyi drank the tea in the cup in one gulp and trotted to catch up with the old master Li as they left the yard.

The teacup, which was originally on the table, was blown by a strong wind outside the window, rolled on the table, and then fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

The maid who came in to clean the place smiled grimly when she saw the empty broken teacup.

Since Jun Yanci arrived, he has regularized the defense of Longcheng, which not only convinced Meng Chen but also won praise from the four deputy generals.

They originally thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who lived far away in the capital, lived a life of luxury and had never been to the battlefield, and should be a layman.

But no one expected that Jun Yanci not only had an elaborate defense, but he also carefully calculated the personnel he employed.

The emphasis is on using the least number to the greatest effect. After all, for the current Longcheng, there are very few soldiers who can take up weapons.

It cannot be said that all, but at least 80% of the soldiers were infected with the disease.

Fortunately, with the joint efforts of Yun Qianyi and Sect Master Li, most of the first wave of sick soldiers have recovered.

Even though he still looked a little sick and his strength had not yet fully recovered, he was finally able to stand up and grab his gun.

"Your Highness, the army from Xiyuan has not arrived yet. Could it be that they have other plans?"

The deputy general's words also reflected the doubts of all of them. Xiyuan's declaration of war was just a lot of noise but little action, and there has been no action so far.

Jun Yanci looked at the map on the table. Longcheng had a unique terrain that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. It was the most important border city in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

If it were him, he would not choose to attack Longcheng by force.

On the contrary, Su City is close to the river bank and connected to Xiyuan. If attacked by water, Su City will surely fall in an instant without a large army to resist.

"No matter what Xiyuan plans, we must not let down our guard. General Meng, how many soldiers in Longcheng can go to Sucheng now?"

Jun Yanci looked at Meng Chen. In order to prevent any trouble, they had to set off no matter how many people there were.

"Your Highness, there are about 10,000 people and they can set off immediately."

The soldiers are much stronger than ordinary people, so as long as the medicine is appropriate, their recovery speed will naturally be much faster than that of ordinary people.

Jun Yanci nodded and was about to speak when he heard the sound of a messenger running towards him outside the door.

"Emergency military information! Emergency military information! Emergency military information!"

The soldiers in the corridor immediately made way and the door was pushed open.

"Your Highness! General! Sucheng is asking for help! Xiyuan's 100,000-strong army is beginning to move towards Sucheng!"

It really means Cao Cao Cao Cao has arrived.

"Has the capital city replied? Will they send Jiang's army or Shen's army to support us?"

Meng Chen's words made the messenger look embarrassed. He said with a tangled face:

"General Meng, we have sent no less than ten groups of people to the capital, but so far, no one has returned."

Jun Yanci's eyes were deep. This was obviously not normal. The capital would never sit idly by for such an important event. Once Longcheng was lost, all the cities in the west of the Eastern Jin Dynasty would fall.

Such important places have always been garrisoned by large armies.

Now, there is an outbreak of the epidemic in Longcheng, and we have to go to Sucheng for support, and we are already unable to take care of ourselves.

To take a step back, even if there was no epidemic, it would still be 50,000 against 100,000, and it would be a tough battle. No matter how strong Meng Chen's leadership ability was, the court would definitely send reinforcements.

but now.
At this time, Xuan Liu flew in anxiously, not even bothering to greet.

"Your Highness! Miss Yun is in trouble!"

When Jun Yanci heard this, his calm and composed look suddenly disappeared.

He grabbed Xuan Liu's arm, his eyes full of worry, and asked anxiously:

"Where is Qianqian?"
