Chapter 439 Who is coming?
Long before Dugu Tianqing took office in the Northern Territory, he learned about the poisonous poison in the southern border through the information channels of the Dugu family.
But when he really met, he could truly realize the great power of the poison, which was even more powerful than what he had obtained.
He already understood that although he seemed to be unhindered now, he was actually terminally ill, but he could still rely on his martial arts cultivation and willpower to support him.
His letter to Zhao Wujiang was derived from his complete trust in Zhao Wujiang, rather than Zhao Wujiang's superb medical skills.
In his opinion, although Zhao Wujiang's medical skills are superb, Zhao Wujiang should be helpless in the face of this even more violent and difficult-to-removal unknown poison.
The reason why he wanted Zhao Wujiang to come to the northern border was simply that he hoped that Zhao Wujiang could use the spiritual pill he had given before to suppress the poison in his body.
Even if it cannot be lifted, as long as it is suppressed and delayed, he will be able to stay for a few more months, guard the border for a period of time, protect the safety of the people of Jubei City, and protect the Daxia behind him from invasion. That is enough.
Because if the Grassland Royal Court did not take an attack on Daxia in this few months, then if you choose to attack Daxia later, Daxia should be able to completely free up his hands and fight the Grassland Royal Court with all his strength.
If the grassland king tribe chooses to attack Daxia in the near future, then Dugu Tianqing will definitely fight to the end, do his last part to drain his last drop of blood.
After these few months, even if Dugu Tianqing did not get rid of the poison at that time, what's the harm that he died?
Life and death are impermanent, but he can choose how to live and die.
Compared to Dugu Tianqing's calmness and ambition, the rest of the people in the military tent who knew the truth were worried.
For example, Song Zhang, the captain of Jubei Army.
Song Zhang, a native of Lanzhou, Daxia, was a veteran of the guards of Jubei City.
After struggling on the battlefield for many years, I finally became a captain a few years ago and became an adjutant of the general.
He has been in the army for more than ten years and has followed two generals, one is the former General Zhao, and the other is General Dugu in the current city lord's general's mansion.
The former General Zhao fell ill in the late spring of this year, but it was already 60 years old. That should be last year. In the late spring of last year, General Zhao fell ill and died in Jubei City soon after.
At that time, the military and civilians in Jubei City were mourning, and the army almost caused a mutiny.
Fortunately, the newly appointed General Dugu came early and had the iron-blooded skills to come to Jubei City to stabilize the morale of the army.
But Song Zhang did not expect that General Dugu was also murdered a few days ago and was poisoned by the body.
He was one of the few insiders. He knew that General Dugu's poison had not been removed and was still raging every day and night. The two military doctors, plus a few trusted doctors in Jubei City, were helpless.
Song Zhang could only watch General Dugu forced himself to hold on during the day and silently endured the torture at night. I am afraid that if this continues, it will not take long before the military and civilian generals in Jubei City will see the fall of another general.
Song Zhang couldn't figure it out. Could it be that the Daxia Dynasty was about to end? That's why it was so unhappy every year?
He became increasingly worried, worried about the general's physical condition, the act of the Central Secretary Zhao Yansi, and the turmoil that might arise if the general falls.
But he is just a warrior and a soldier. He seems to be unable to do anything except worry.
He could only follow General Dugu's instructions and send people to patrol the south gate of Jubei City every day to wait for the people in the court who might arrive.
General Dugu once told him privately that a man from the court would come to Jubei City and asked him to personally bring the man to the city lord's mansion without any attention.
Song Zhang asked about the characteristics of this man, and General Dugu just told him that his surname was Zhao, and as for his characteristics, he was handsome.
He didn't say anything at that time and muttered in his heart, how handsome can a man be?
Can he be so handsome that he is amazed by Song Zhang?
Impossible! He doesn't like men, he likes girls with big breasts and erect butts.
