Chapter 132 Xunnan Fog

A few days after Li Yao's departure, Qi Muye had been paying attention to Li Yao's movements, but the scouts reported that there was no problem, and Song Ruyu and others did not encounter too many difficulties on the road.

Until more than ten days later, the scout reported that Song Ruyu had led the army to the vicinity of the Gaonan Plain, and Li Yao would arrive in Xunnan in a few days, nothing happened on the way.At this moment, Qi Muye breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help laughing that his uneasiness at that time seemed to be just an illusion.

However, the uneasy illusion did not alleviate at all. Even after receiving the news that Li Yao was about to arrive in Xunnan, he would wake up with a start every night, and then could not fall asleep again.

Qi Muye felt that he had overlooked some important information.

The information that General Chen led his troops to Xunnan seems to be only reported by Deputy General Wang. He always said that the scouts reported back, but in fact, they did not see the scouts telling them in person. Everything was conveyed by Deputy General Wang. But Deputy General Wang knows all this in too much detail.

Who is the opponent's general, the combat method that General Chen is good at, the number of opponent's soldiers, and their purpose, all can tell a thing or two, it is hardly like the information that scouts can detect all.

What's more, Deputy General Wang, who has always been taciturn, always listened to everything they said in silence, and occasionally said a few words. Most of them were peacemakers who did not fight or grab, and had the lowest sense of presence among the several generals. .Actively asking for the expedition like this, and also deliberately recommending Li Yao to lead troops to go...

The more Qi Muye thought about it, the more frightened he became. He remembered that he had inadvertently asked about Vice General Wang and General Chen. There are oddities, which don't come up at all in normal times.

Could it be...

With a solemn expression, Qi Muye immediately got up, put on his coat, and called for his subordinates.

"I'm going to check Vice-General Wang's room and study room! I will also report to me the whereabouts of Vice-General Wang during these days!! And the scouts sent to Xunnan to investigate clearly Who on earth detected that the enemy army was about to reach Xunnan!"

Qi Muye suppressed his uneasiness and quickly started to investigate. There was nothing special about Vice General Wang's room and study. He searched all night except for some military affairs, but could not find any other suspicious letters.Just when he thought he couldn't find any clues, he found a scorched piece of paper from the corner under Vice General Wang's bed. It may have been left under the bed because of the rush of time and no time to check it.Although there were only a few words on it, he still recognized it.

During the three years in Yanjing, he was very familiar with this handwriting.

That is Wei Junyu's handwriting! !

The writing on it was vaguely recognizable as the word "Miasma". At this moment, Qi Muye's heart skipped a beat. He had a bad idea.

He remembered a suggestion he had made before, that is, to allow Vice General Wang to lure the enemy into the miasma. Once in the miasma, there will be perennial fog and loss of direction. It may be difficult to get out, and the miasma is poisonous. If he is not treated in time, his life may be lost.

At dawn, the subordinates came down to report to Qi Muye about the investigation of the Xunnan scouts. They asked all over the scout battalion, but there was no soldier who came to report that night. Received information from Xunnan scouts.

The truth was on the horizon, and it seemed his uneasy instincts were true.

"When will General Li arrive in Xunnan?"

"About three more days."

"Hurry up! Send the scouts to deliver my letter to General Li!!" Qi Muye hurriedly wrote a letter, telling the scouts to deliver it quickly.

The scout didn't dare to hesitate, got on his horse and left in the dust.

Seeing that Qi Muye was in such a hurry, the subordinates carefully reminded: "Master Hou, even if the scouts rush to Xunnan, it may not be delivered in three days..." The subordinates saw Qi Muye's ashen face, He didn't dare to say any more, for fear of angering Qi Muye, he would have no good fruit to eat.

Even though Qi Muye was very anxious, all he could do now was this. He lived in the house all night and couldn't close his eyes at all. When the scouts delivered the letter, if Li Yao really entered the miasma, then the letter would not be rejected at all. Useful.

On the second day, the subordinates who knew that Qi Muye hadn't closed their eyes all night saw the faint bruises under Qi Muye's eyes. Seriously, he walked out without even looking at him, and at the same time ordered General Lin to come over.

After General Lin came over, he explained to General Lin that he was in charge of the affairs of the barracks and ordered him to guard the city gate. Although General Lin was confused and didn't know why Qi Muye explained it like this, he still nodded in response to the importance given.

Qi Muye immediately said again: "Pass my order! Get [-] cavalry and [-] infantry ready to follow me later!"

The subordinates probably guessed his intentions, and immediately asked: "Master Hou, are you going to leave for Xunnan?"

Qi Muye nodded without hesitation: "Yes." Seeing that his subordinates wanted to dissuade him, he said impatiently: "I have made up my mind to go, you don't need to dissuade, and here is another letter for the scouts to send to heaven." Hand over the lock to General Mo."

After explaining everything, Qi Muye and his soldiers were about to set off for Xunnan. All the generals tried to dissuade Qi Muye from thinking twice, and even took the initiative to ask Ying to go to Xunnan to find Li Yao's army on behalf of Qi Muye. Qi Muye had also thought about it , but his spiritual power can sense Li Yao's spiritual power, so he can find where Li Yao is faster than these generals.Seeing that Qi Muye didn't waver, and these generals even knelt down in front of him to obstruct his progress, he really lost his temper.

Qi Muye, who was slightly angry, had a livid face, and he was not angry. He had an intimidating aura, and his mental strength suddenly doubled, pressing on the generals, making them break out in cold sweat.

Only then did they realize that this young Marquis was not weaker than the old Marquis who had been fighting for many years. Even though his face was unparalleled, when he was really angry, his whole body showed that he could not go to the battlefield, which was more deterrent than killing the enemy on the battlefield. Their aura made them, generals who had killed the enemy before, afraid to speak out for a while.

Seeing that Qi Muye could not be prevented from leaving, he had no choice but to let a general follow the team to take care of Qi Muye's safety at all times.

--------

Xunnan is located in the remote southwest. It is always warm in winter and cool in summer. There are many mountains and forests, and the atmosphere is humid. When you enter the mountains and forests in Xunnan, there will be a wave of moisture rising from the ground. After a while, people will feel Even in the cold spring, the surrounding trees are still as green as early summer, and there is a layer of water mist on the green leaves. Once people pass through it, their clothes will be soaked At the same time, the temperature in the mountains and forests is higher than that in the north, and the warmth is accompanied by humidity. The sweat and moisture on the skin covered by clothes will produce sticky discomfort.

Li Yao's army has been trapped in the depths of the forest for six days. Since he discovered the abnormality and captured Vice General Wang who was about to escape, it was still too late when he led the soldiers to rush out of the forest. The miasma, and has already started vomiting and diarrhea, and even can't walk anymore. The skin is covered with itchy and horrible rashes, and the soldiers who came into contact with them have the same symptoms after a short time.

This was undoubtedly a symptom of an infectious disease. Without hesitation, Li Yao ordered the healthy soldiers who had not contracted the disease to isolate these soldiers. He could only leave them and continue to go out, using his mental strength to search for the exit of the mountain forest.

But during this period of time, the dense fog is particularly severe. In the early morning, the ancient official road is filled with thick fog. People do not see each other within a short distance, and it is easy to get lost. You must go to the middle of the day when the fog clears to see the way ahead.It was precisely because of this that Vice General Wang took advantage of this to lure the soldiers into the forest by mistake.The fog in the mountains and forests is especially thick, as thick as a city wall, and you can hardly distinguish your fingers when you stretch out your hands. You often bump into people when you are walking, only to be surprised that there are people nearby. The thick miasma has the effect of sound insulation. The other party's shouts cannot be heard, and soldiers often disappear suddenly following the team.

In particular, the miasma gets heavier as you go deeper into the forest, and it is filled with thick fog all day long. Even at noon, it does not dissipate. Perhaps it is because the towering trees in the mountains and forests are connected to each other, blocking the sky and blocking the sun so that the sun cannot penetrate into it, so the miasma cannot dissipate. go.

Li Yao also found that his mental power was weakened by the dense miasma when he probed outwards. When passing through the miasma, it was like sound passing through the fog. The thicker the miasma, the weaker it went out, and some even bounced back. I can only vaguely perceive the general direction.

The terrain in the forest is quite complicated. In addition to the ubiquitous miasma, there are also other dangers, such as poisonous snakes and swamps, which make it difficult for the army to escape.

"General, shouldn't it be time to stop and rest? There are three or four people who can't walk anymore, and a few fell into the swamp because they couldn't see clearly. At this time, everyone is trying their best to rescue them. I'm afraid, today is the I can't make it on my way..." Xiaowei Jia who was beside him carefully reminded Li Yao, who was leading the troops, after seeing that many soldiers had been unable to keep up with the team due to miasma entering their bodies after a day's journey.

Li Yao raised his head, there was a cyan color in the white fog, and there was a faint light projected down. After passing through the thick fog, only a dim light remained. His mental power stretched out as usual, but he still couldn't clearly perceive the specifics. I can guess at what time it is now.

"Then rest first. Remember, let them remember to cover their mouths and noses at all times. If they can't keep up, they tie each other's clothes together." Li Yao gave the order, and Jia Xiaowei immediately sent the order to leave. Soldiers far away rely on soldiers to send messages to each other.

Li Yao found a relatively safe place with no swamp nearby, and let the soldiers rest on the spot.

In the humid mountain forest, there are very few dry dead branches, and most of them are soaked by the water vapor permeating the mountain forest. It is difficult for the weak soldiers who inhaled the miasma in western Zhejiang to start a fire, so the soldiers with spare energy are setting up pots Light the fire and help tend to the weak soldiers.

Li Yao took advantage of this moment and was about to walk around, ready to investigate the situation. Seeing this, the captain hurriedly followed, but Li Yao refused to follow him.

"Don't follow, I won't get lost. You go back, the soldiers need you."

Xiaowei Jia saw that Li Yao could indeed walk freely. These days, all the soldiers had more or less symptoms, and even he started to have some diarrhea. However, Li Yao was always in good spirits and there was no abnormality. He couldn't help admiring this young and A powerful general.

It seems that as long as he is in the army, everyone can feel at ease. This is why even though the army strayed into the depths of the mountains and forests for many days and lost many soldiers, the remaining soldiers still obeyed orders and did not riot.

From the bottom of their hearts, they believed that the calm and powerful general would lead them to escape.

Lieutenant Jia obeyed Li Yao's instructions and returned to the soldiers to direct the discipline, while Li Yao gradually walked into the mist of miasma.
