The Pestilence Army's tactic had dealt a fatal blow to Feng Army, mainly because it had affected the morale too much. Under such circumstances, Tang Yin could only make a decision to retreat.

After the meeting, Tang Yin brought not a single person, and went to South City alone to see the Ba Pass Army's main general, Ying Bu.

At this time, Ying Bu was visiting the sick soldiers in the camp. Over a hundred people were lying in the enormous living quarters. Intense coughs and pained howls rose and fell unceasingly. Ying Bu had been together with his subordinates for close to ten years, and their relationship was similar to that of a family member. Seeing his brothers in such pain, he personally carried the water medicine and ran around.

Hearing that the King had arrived, Ying Bu was startled. He had a premonition that their side had been infected by the plague, otherwise, how could they be isolated? But now that the King was here, it didn't seem like a plague. Otherwise, why would the King be personally taking the risk? This thought cleared up the haze in Ying Bu's heart, and he quickly walked out of the living quarters to welcome them.

Seeing Tang Yin, and seeing that he did not bring any of his followers and was only by himself, Ying Bu was first stunned, but still bowed and greeted him: "Great King!"

"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded, he extended his hand and helped Ying Bu up, then studied him, and saw that his eyes were green, it was obvious that he had not been able to sleep well for the past few days. He secretly sighed in his heart and asked: "Ying Bu, how many soldiers are currently sick?"

Ying Bu lowered his head: "At least twenty thousand brothers."

"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded his head again and walked into the living quarters, at the same time he said: "Come, let's go in and take a look."

Seeing that the King had arrived, the soldiers of the scouts all knelt down to greet him. Tang Yin waved his hand to signal for everyone to stand up, then his gaze landed on the people lying on the bed. Some of them were pale, some were flushed red, and all of them had thick quilts covering their bodies. One after another they trembled and moaned non-stop, and even coughed from time to time.

"Your Majesty, what kind of illness is this? Why can't you cure it? " Ying Bu followed behind Tang Yin, his heart burning with anxiety.

Tang Yin did not answer, he looked through the entire thing and quietly walked out of the living quarters.

Once he was outside, he turned around and said to Ying Bu: "This is ? "Plague!" Although it was very hard to say it, Tang Yin had to tell Ying Bu the truth.

Hearing that, Ying Bu's body suddenly trembled, he stood there, stunned like a wooden chicken.

Tang Yin continued to speak, "Moreover, it is a highly contagious plague. Even if there is no physical contact, if there is even the slightest bit of contact, there is still a possibility of being infected. This plague had no cure, no cure. Once infected, the dead ? Nine out of ten. "

These words made Ying Bu's heart sink to the bottom of the valley, and his body also faintly trembled.

Tang Yin sighed: "I never thought that Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country would use such a vicious method. Right now, our army can only retreat and give up on Ba Pass. However, you are seriously infected, so in order to prevent the plague from spreading to the entire army and even the entire nation, I have to leave your side. " Speaking up to here, he let out a long sigh, held his hands behind his back, and walked forward with heavy and aimless steps.

Only after he walked a good distance away did Ying Bu regain his senses from his shock. He quickly caught up to Tang Yin and asked with a trembling voice: "If that's the case, can I ? Our entire army, over sixty thousand people, will be kept in the Ba Pass? "

"Yes!" Tang Yin did not turn his head and could not bear to see Ying Bu's current expression.

He said resolutely, "Including General Ying Bu." After pausing for a moment, he stopped and looked up to the sky. He said in a low voice, "You still have some things you need to tell me."

Ying Bu's face twitched, but in the end, he burst out laughing and shook his head: "When I joined the army, I had already given my life to the nation, to the King, and to be able to die on the battlefield was my honor. The King does not need to worry, even if I am the last person in the battle, I would never lay down my weapon against the enemy, and would never flee before the battle. There's nothing left to wish for. "

Tang Yin was moved. When he turned around, his eyes were already red.

He grabbed the armor on Ying Bu's shoulders and said, "As long as there's a way, as long as there's a slim chance, I won't make a decision like this."

Ying Bu nodded repeatedly, and replied: "Great King, this lowly general understands. I will never forget the kindness of the King for knowing her place. This time, when our main force wants to retreat, we also need someone to stay behind and delay the enemy. As the general of the Ba Pass, I am duty-bound to do so, not to mention that our army was accidentally infected with a plague, causing the King to give up on the heavenly danger in Ba Pass ? "It is also because of the negligence of my lord. Your majesty does not blame me for this sinful official. Your majesty is already deeply grateful ?" After saying all that, Ying Bu was choked with sobs.

Tang Yin's heart ached even more. Before he had even become a Feng King, Ying Bu had already strongly supported him, and even contributed greatly to the extermination of the rebellious and invasive Ning Army, which could be considered as Tang Yin's founding contribution points. Now that he had to abandon them, Tang Yin's heart had tightened, and it was as he said, as long as there was a way, he would not do it.

He held Ying Bu's hand tightly and said: "I will bring your family members back to the Yan City and take good care of them. Your children, I will treat them as my own ?"

After hearing this, with a thump, Ying Bu knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and said: "This general thanks your majesty!"

With more than sixty thousand Ba Pass Army, not everyone was infected with the plague. However, the plague had an incubation period, and could cause illness in less than a day, or it could also occur after three days, or even longer. Tang Yin was unable to differentiate between who was infected with the plague, and who wasn't, and could only leave the sixty thousand soldiers behind.

If she said goodbye to Ying Bu now, she would be leaving him for good. He intentionally got someone to bring a jar of wine and sat down on the city walls to drink with Ying Bu. Tang Yin and Ying Bu got to know each other through drinking and now they were saying their goodbyes through drinking. The strong and spicy Feng Jiu also represented the mood of the two.

The two of them drank until the middle of the night before ending. Leaving the South City, Tang Yin returned to the General's Mansion. His mood was sorrowful and his expression was dejected. Just as he was about to enter the General's Mansion, his body slightly trembled, and a white mist emitted from his body. Then, it was sucked back.

Upon entering the General's Mansion, Tang Yin did not return to the main hall, but instead went to the side courtyard, in search of Su Yelei.

At this time, Su Yelei was still awake, she was sitting at the table using the weak light of the candle to read the medicine book. Although there was no cure for the plague in Tang Yin's mouth, but she did not give up, she did not want to see more than sixty thousand soldiers die, nor did she want to die in pain.2

If it was a large side courtyard, it would be very quiet and without a single person. Even the guards guarding outside the side courtyard would hide far away, as if they were afraid of being infected by a plague. Without a care in the world, Tang Yin strode into the courtyard. Seeing that there was still light in Su Yelei's room, without even greeting him, he pushed the door open and entered.

Su Yelei was shocked, and looked towards the door in shock. Seeing that the one who was recent was Tang Yin, she subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief, but still pulled up her clothes. She asked, "Why is the King here ?"

She was only halfway through speaking when Tang Yin had already strode forward. He grabbed her wrist with one hand and pressed the back of her head with the other. Then, he bent his head and kissed her cherry lips.

Tang Yin's sudden rude actions caused Su Yelei to be completely stupefied, and also caused the guards who were with Tang Yin to be completely dumbfounded. They did not understand what happened to the King, why she neglected the Su Army's doctors, and why she was a doctor that could possibly carry the plague.

Although it was called a kiss, Tang Yin was actually sucking in the liquid in Su Yelei's mouth.

After an unknown period of time, smack, a crisp sound interrupted Tang Yin's kiss, and a bright red palm print appeared on the latter's white cheeks. Su Yelei, who had regained her senses, was both embarrassed and angry. With a layer of mist covering his eyes, she pointed at someone as she loudly shouted, "Tang Yin, how much alcohol have you drank? Open your eyes and look clearly, I am Su Yelei, not your little girls! "

After receiving the slap, Tang Yin ignored Su Yelei who bared her fangs and brandished her claws in anger. Closing his eyes, she fell silent for a moment, then opened his eyes and said: "You are not infected, go back to organize your things, our army will depart anytime!" With that, he turned around and left expressionlessly.

After swallowing Su Yelei's saliva, sshe determined that she was not infected by the plague. This was the inspiration Tang Yin and Ying Bu got from drinking wine. Tang Yin had also been infected by the plague, but after he left, he used the Fire of Darkness to burn off the poison in his body. Now that Tang Yin had swallowed Su Yelei's saliva, he did not feel the existence of the virus, which also meant that Su Yelei was lucky enough to not get infected.

Looking at Tang Yin's leaving figure, Su Yelei took a while to react and hurriedly chased after him. The only thing she happened to see was Tang Yin rubbing his face as he walked out of the courtyard.

How Tang Yin was able to determine that he was not infected, Su Yelei did not know, but Tang Yin's current appearance made her laugh.

Feng Army preparing to give up Ba Pass and withdraw with the main force was more or less what Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country had predicted.

At this time, it was already the middle of the month. The wind blowing through the windbreak had greatly weakened, and the Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country had secretly sent three hundred thousand soldiers into the mountain during the night. The three hundred thousand soldiers were divided into two parts, and their missions were different as well. A portion of them were the two hundred thousand strong army led by Li Cheng. Their goal was not Feng Army, but rather Yan City of Feng Country.

The other part, with Wu Rui, the great general of Chuan Army as the leader of the hundred thousand Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country, targeted Ba Pass. The tactic of Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country was to trap the Feng Army within, and exterminate them all.

It was impossible to walk in the dark, and there was no path in the mountain. If someone were to light a torch, the target would be too big, and it would be easy for them to be exposed. Therefore, three hundred thousand people took advantage of the night to enter the mountain and temporarily camp out.
