第430章 让1寸就是失1寸国土,退1步就退1尺尊严

The messenger's voice was choked with emotion: "General, Mr. Xu, the military doctor has discovered that those from the Brown Kingdom who died after crawling out of the cave were all carrying a plague!"

Pang Yunyi and Xu Zhen's faces instantly darkened.

They had no time to curse at this point. Pang Yunyi gripped the soldier's hand tightly: "What symptoms?"

Outside the light screen, there was also an uproar.

Zheng Xun clenched his fists.

It's Shimizu Village!

At that time, I felt that this matter ended too easily. It turned out that the experiment in the Brown Country had already succeeded, and what happened in Shimizu Village was just a mess that hadn't been cleaned up.

Using the vile substances developed through experiments on the people of Dayong on the people of Dayong—how could such despicable acts not be met with retribution?

That's true; there's no such thing as retribution in this world.

However, this does not mean that people don't have to pay the price for their actions.

Jianyang's face was visibly grim.

The military doctor snapped out of his daze and patted her abdomen: "General, relax. If the wound reopens, it will be even harder to heal."

Jianyang did not reply; her gaze remained fixed on the light screen.

Within the light screen, the soldier was clearly prepared.

Faced with Pang Yunyi's questioning, he replied fluently, "Coughing, fever, dry throat, extreme weight loss... Moreover, the disease is spreading extremely quickly, and now, about a hundred people have already shown obvious symptoms."

Pang Yunyi and Xu Zhen hurriedly walked outside.

"The most urgent task is to isolate the person. Then we need to find a doctor, prepare medicine, and collect and dispose of the patient's belongings."

"Over in the Brown Country..."

"There's no need to worry for now; they're definitely avoiding us like the plague right now."

Xu Zhen added: "Let's close the mountain, Pang Yunyi."

Although there have been no deaths yet, no one knows how serious the epidemic is.

This is a serious matter, and they must prepare for the worst.

Pang Yunyi was stunned for a moment, then wiped his face: "You're right, we must close the mountain."

He suddenly looked at Xu Zhen: "Fortunately, we have sufficient supplies. No one has come down the mountain to buy supplies during this period, and we have not had any contact with outsiders."

Regardless of the nature of the epidemic, it began with them and it will end with them.

Outside the light screen, Zheng Xun suddenly stood up.

Jianyang's gaze was drawn to her movements.

"Wei Yanxing, I'm writing a letter. Please take it to He Wuyu as soon as possible."

Zheng Xun walked very fast.

Although Wei Yanxing was outside the tent, he could still see the sky.

Knowing what the letter Zheng Xun was going to bring, he didn't joke around but seriously agreed.

After finishing the letter, Zheng Xun went to Jianyang again: "Aunt, I have foreseen a very important event."

Jianyang replied cooperatively, "What is it?"

"An epidemic has broken out in Xizhou. This is not a natural disaster, but a man-made one. A man-made disaster created by the Brown Kingdom. Aunt, we must make plans as soon as possible."

The situation in Liaozhou is better; the fighting there has long been fierce and evenly matched.

The He Kingdom and Dayong had a lot of contact. If Qi Yongji hadn't been trying to pull some kind of suicide prank, he wouldn't have spread the epidemic in Liaozhou.

The crisis in Dongzhou is secondary.

Even if Qi Yongji conquers Dayong, he will still need someone to govern it. Logically speaking, he wouldn't do something that would harm the enemy a thousand while also damaging himself eight hundred.

But it's hard to say.

In such cases, unless you are 100% certain, you must take precautions against any unforeseen circumstances.

The Brown Kingdom can afford to gamble, but the Great Yong Kingdom cannot.

Jianyang already had a plan in mind, just waiting for her to speak.

After hearing this, she immediately made the arrangements.

These military doctors are clearly not enough.

She also arranged for people to search for doctors in Dongzhou and nearby state capitals.

Some remained in Dongzhou for preventative purposes, while others were sent to Xizhou.

Zhang Dairong asked with concern, "General, what if no one comes?"

Jianyang closed his eyes briefly: "It would be best if someone came voluntarily, but there's no need to force them if not."

After Zhang Dairong left, she slammed her fist on the table: "Brown Country..."

The current situation is quite a dilemma.

The original plan was only halfway through, and if it continued, there was a risk of contracting the disease.

If we give up, wouldn't the sisters who sacrificed their lives have lost their lives in vain?

What a ruthless Qi Yongji!

Just like that, they completely disrupted the current situation.

Jianyang took a deep breath.

She didn't have much time to think; right now, the most important thing was to take precautions.

There are still many things she needs to arrange.

One thing after another weighed on her like a mountain.

Her next decision could easily affect the lives of tens of thousands of people.

The invisible pressure made her figure somewhat hunched.

She lowered her head, her eyes flashing with countless complex emotions.

She's already this age.

Over the past few years, she has never regretted embarking on this path of vying for power and profit.

But at this moment, she felt lost and weak.

Her fate was sealed from birth; as long as she didn't cause trouble, she would enjoy endless wealth and honor for the rest of her life.

The emperor and she had a deep affection for each other and would not allow her to be sent to a political marriage.

She has a little power, and everyone has to respect her.

She seems to have everything.

So what is she still fussing about?

What was she thinking at that time?

Yes, she was unwilling to accept it.

She could certainly be a caged sparrow, living a life of luxury.

But none of these things can compare to the allure of power.

She was destined to be a wealthy and idle person; her glory did not belong to her.

But if she could wield power, she could help the emperor share some of the burdens, and if there was anything she disapproved of, she could change it.

Yes, not every woman in this world is as lucky as her.

Many others are struggling in the mud.

Can she truly be content to be a clueless parasite, enjoying the offerings of the people?

She has the ability to help them, and she has the ability to make the people of Dayong live a better life.

Then why can't she do it?

Jianyang repeatedly questioned his own heart.

Her somewhat clouded original aspirations gradually became clearer as she repeatedly asked and answered herself.

She made a quick decision—she had to fight.

The struggle between nations cannot be resolved by concessions and benevolence.

Giving up an inch means losing an inch of territory; taking a step back means losing a foot of dignity.

Even if we give up this opportunity, the Brown Kingdom will not stop its attack.

They might even take advantage of the situation.

Qi Yongji dared to do such a thing because he was certain that the people of Dayong would not take risks.

Therefore, everything he did afterward must have been based on this judgment.

We cannot let Qi Yongji succeed.

Moreover, a war must break out as soon as possible.

With increased contact, diseases can easily inadvertently harm people from brown countries.

The more chances of accidental injury, the greater the losses Qi Yongji will bear.

He won't act easily if he finds that it doesn't align with his interests after weighing the options.

After much deliberation, Jianyang made up his mind.

After consulting Zheng Xun, Jianyang quickly issued the order.

Then, Zheng Xun witnessed Jianyang's influence within the Red Eagle Army.

The Red Eagle Army soldiers were fully aware of the risk of contracting the epidemic, but when Jianyang gave the order, there was not a single voice of doubt.

It was as if they had entrusted their lives to Jianyang.
