Chapter 1080: Water Poisoning

As the army of the Western Expedition continued to advance, the originally desolate Gobi Desert gradually had a little more dry grass, and the already hungry war horses couldn't wait to eat it and gnaw it away, and as the army continued to advance, there were more and more dead grasses, and even low bushes appeared.

"We are finally out of the Gobi Desert." Seeing that the front was no longer desolate, Hou Junji raised his arms and shouted.

100,000 soldiers cheered one after another, and suddenly the shadow that shrouded the head of the whole army was scattered, and they finally created a miracle, the 100,000 troops crossed the vast Gobi Desert of 2,000 miles, which has never been done in the past, and today the Tang Army has done it, and the loss is very small.

Of course, there are many reasons for this, including Hou Junji's foresight to go out in advance and turn snow into water, as well as the emergency rescue of the firearms supervisor water hose and water hose vehicle, and the key to Qixin He Li's familiarity with the terrain and the key to one person and three riders to send water sources.

"According to the map, there is a river fifty miles ahead, the whole army is speeding up, and we will camp by the river at night!" Hou Junji looked at the map in his hand, determined the location, and couldn't help but feel angry.

"Yes! Checkmate! The soldiers shouted with chapped lips, they saw that they had been short of water for too long, and now the water that Qixin He Li had taken was about to run out, and they urgently needed to replenish water.

At that moment, the soldiers were no longer stingy, and drank the little water they had left, and poured all the rest to the war horses, and the whole army immediately accelerated and rushed towards the river.

"It's almost there!" As the army continues to advance, there are more and more dead grass along the way, although it has begun to spring, but the northwest is bitterly cold, and the grass here has not yet returned to green.

Finally, under the long-awaited expectations of all the soldiers, a Xiaoice river finally appeared in front of it, and the weather here was extremely cold, and the river surface had not yet thawed.

"Dig ice for water!" Hou Junji waved his hand and ordered, and a group of soldiers went down to the river to dig ice to get water, and many soldiers were extremely thirsty, and they couldn't wait to drink the ice water that had just been hit.

"Can't drink water!"

Suddenly, an urgent voice came, preventing the soldiers from drinking water.

Everyone turned around and found that it was Mo Jiazi who spoke out, and the water source that the army urgently needed was in front of him, and he actually objected to the army drinking water to quench their thirst.

"What does Mo Hou mean by this? Why can't you drink water? This isn't the water of the firearms supervisor, is it? Xin Fang'er frowned.

Merton sneered: "If General Xin wants to die young, you can drink it!" ”

Xin Fang'er couldn't help but be stunned, looking at the kettle in his hand, even if he was extremely hungry and thirsty, he couldn't drink it, although he was reckless, he was not stupid, not to mention that Mo Jiazi's magical methods were well known, he could see that Mo Jiazi was not going well, but what Mo Jiazi said, even he had to believe it, this is the power of Mo Jiazi.

He was now certain that if he forced himself to drink the water from the river, there was a good chance that something would happen.

"What's going on? Could it be that Gao Chang followed the example of the Xiongnu and planted the epidemic in the water source. Xue Wanjun, Niu Jinda and the others hurriedly came and asked.

In an instant, Xin Fang'er couldn't help but be clever, and hurriedly threw away the water bladder in his hand, you must know that putting the dead cattle and sheep carcasses in the water to cause the plague is a common method used by all departments of the grassland, and even the dignified champion Hou Huo died of illness in this trick, not to mention his little Xin Fang'er.

"The whole army has suspended drinking water, and General Ben has sent military medical officers to check the water source upstream and downstream, and will return soon?" Hou Junji is no better than Xin Fang'er, he has already prepared for this trick in the sand table deduction, and has already sent someone to check it.

Xin Fang'er couldn't help but blush, in the military exercise, he also remembered this incident, but at the moment he was too hungry and thirsty to forget about it, if he really drank the plague water, the consequences were unimaginable, although he didn't dare to compare himself to the disease, but he didn't want to die young.

Soon, the military medical officer hurried back and reported to Hou Junji: "General Qiyu, it has been investigated clearly, there are no dead cattle and sheep carcasses in the upper and lower thirty miles, and there is no epidemic in this water. ”

Since the rise of doctors, a large number of military doctors have been trained for the military in the past few years, and now there is no need to recruit doctors from doctors to march and fight, and the military medical officers alone are enough, and this time the Western Expedition Army is carrying a group of military medical officers.

Hearing the report of the military medical officer, everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief, this water has no epidemic is great news, and the soldiers can finally replenish water with peace of mind.

"It's okay, it's really a dog meddling with a mouse." Xin Fang'er snorted coldly, and muttered dissatisfaction with the Mo family,

However, when he just handed the water to his mouth, suddenly a soldier who was fetching water fell to the ground with his stomach in his arms, crying out in pain.

Xin Fang'er's face suddenly stiffened, and she hurriedly put down the water bladder in her hand.

"What's going on? Doesn't it mean that there is no disease in this river? Hou Junji roared at the military medical officer, these soldiers have survived the Gobi Desert across two thousand miles, and now they have found a water source out of the Gobi Desert, and it would be a great loss if they were damaged.

"I don't know if I am lowly! Indeed, there were no carcasses of cattle or sheep in the river. The medic said in fear.

"Ahh My stomach hurts too! Suddenly, another soldier who had drunk the water shouted in pain, and soon almost all the soldiers who had drunk the river water held their stomachs and cried out in pain.

Xin Fang'er's face was suddenly embarrassed, if it wasn't for the Mo family's blockade, he would definitely not have escaped this catastrophe.

"That's right! Mo Jiazi! ”

Xin Fang'er turned around suddenly, and the Mo family prevented the soldiers from drinking water in advance, so he must know something.

The other generals also reacted, and they all got up and looked at Merton.

Hou Junji rolled his eyes and scolded Xin Fang'er angrily: "I really don't know what to do, the ink sacrifice wine is kind enough to save you, but you don't appreciate it." ”

Xin Fang'er said with a look of shame: "Xin doesn't know how to learn, he doesn't understand Mohou's kindness, and he also asks Lord Mohou not to remember the villain, and also asks Mohou to rescue these soldiers." ”

Mo Dun didn't want to watch the two perform, so he waved his hand and said: "General Xin is serious, they are all colleagues in the army, how can Mo stand by and watch." ”

Merton stepped forward, touched the round belly of a soldier who was crying out in pain, and couldn't help frowning: "How much water have you drunk?" ”

The soldier who exhaled the pain suddenly looked ashamed, and he couldn't help but drink a lot of water for a while because he was so thirsty.

"Mo heard that people who are extremely hungry, after encountering food, they can't help but eat more, and the food is not absorbed, the body still feels very hungry, and the same is true for wanting to drink water, not to mention the cold river water at this time, it is strange that the stomach does not hurt!"

Everyone suddenly thought that after this soldier drank water, he still felt very thirsty, so he kept drinking water, even if a normal person drank so much cold water, I am afraid that he will have a stomachache.

"Induce vomiting for him, otherwise his life will be in danger!" Merton said to the medic.

"Yes!" The military medical officer immediately stepped forward, and soon, the full-bellied soldier spat out a large amount of water, and only then did he get a little better.

"What about you?" Merton asked another soldier with a stomachache.

"The villain only drank half a jug of water!" The soldier replied bitterly.

Hou Junji asked puzzledly: "This soldier doesn't drink much water, I don't know why the pain is unbearable?" ”

Merton explained: "I don't know if General Hou still remembers what Mo said about Wangmei to quench his thirst, in fact, there is a second half of this allusion, after Cao Jun obtained the water source, the soldiers drank water wantonly, and more than half of the people with abdominal pain, and hundreds of soldiers died, and the doctors at that time called this behavior water poisoning." ”

"Ahh Water poisoning phenomenon! Hou Junji was shocked when he heard this, although he was deeply suspicious of water poisoning, he didn't expect that he could be poisoned by drinking saliva on weekdays, but the scene in front of him made him have to believe Mo Jiazi's words.

Compared with Cao's army, the Western Expedition army crossed the 2,000-mile Gobi Desert, and I am afraid that the soldiers will be more deficient in water, and if they drink a lot of water, they will definitely be poisoned more deeply.

"There's a way to detoxify!" Hou Junji asked.

Morton nodded and said: "Yes, the Mo family has also tested this phenomenon many times, and finally found that only need to put some salt in the drinking water and turn it into salt water, which can resolve water poisoning, of course, you can't drink a lot of water, or salt water, and it is best to boil salt water." ”

Hou Junji waved his hand and said: "Do what Mo Hou said, all the river water must be boiled, put a small amount of salt, and let the whole army soldiers."
