Let's put aside the 'polite battle' in the canyon that is really changing into a fake fight, and go back to the Donghaiguan that these two people are thinking about at the same time.

Today's East Customs is heavily guarded, leaving only the east and west gates open, and the north and south gates were firmly sealed by Master Xu's order as early as the beginning of the war.

The reason why Master Xu made this decision was because of the special geographical environment around the East Customs, as well as the annihilation of the 100,000-strong army under the command of Guo Xiao, the Marquis of Pingbei.

Because the Pingbei Army had already poured out of the nest where the war began, and the soldiers who remained in the East Customs were all seriously injured and sick old and weak remnants, which were simply useless; The north gate of the East Customs faces the mountain, and the south gate faces the sea, these two city gates do not help the city defense at all, and will invisibly disperse the already overstretched city defense force.

And the most important thing is that once only the east and west gates are opened, then the three classes of officials in Donghai City can also step up their patrols to prevent the Youbei spies from sneaking into the East Customs and acting as internal responders.

In view of this, after the arrival of 100,000 reinforcements from the imperial court, Liang Jing, who had already taken over the command of the army, did not reopen the north and south gates. Maybe he forgot, maybe he really didn't have the energy to re-dismantle the solid protection within the north and south gates, all in all, this imperial city technique from Master Xu was completely preserved.

And in the afternoon today, Huang Gongzi, who had just had lunch in the Shuai Mansion, gathered in front of the West Gate of the East Customs with his twelve friends. They are about to embark on the journey back to their 'hometown Nankang' today, and all the generals and officers of the Pingbei Army who have benefited from them are also gathered under the West City Gate at this time to send off these dozen 'Nankang Little God of Wealth'.

Faced with the flattery that shot at him like a rain of arrows, 'Young Master Huang' said politely again and again:

"You don't have to, it's not a bad thing for us to get rid of the goods here; As Mr. Liang said that day, it is a godsend for us businessmen to bet on Beiyan that will win! What's more, although the price agreed with the princes is far less than the return we shipped back to Nankang for sale, it will not lose money; As for us businessmen, we pay attention to a product such as a rotation, a million profits; If you count the things promised by the kings, for our thirteen families, it is not a matter of how much money is paid...... Presumably, I have given an explanation to my family in this way......"

Lie Yan, who falsely claimed to be 'Huangyuan', was talking about business at this time, but the corner of his eye involuntarily glanced at the top of the West City Gate Tower.

At this moment, most of his thoughts were on the four deaf people who were repairing the wall. He knew that these four people were the hidden stakes planted by Shen Gui in the East Customs, but to this day, they couldn't find a way to communicate with them. But tonight has come to the appointed time for action, and he and his brothers must also get out and leave before the night comes.

In desperation, Lieyan, who had completed the task, had no choice but to leave the four deaf people behind and leave with the shaman. However, just as Lie Yan dealt with a few words and was about to turn around and go on the road, he saw a familiar figure in the team seeing him off......

"Lord Liang, dare to ask these mages...... What are the ways they came from? ”

Lie Yan pointed to the strange people with crowns and belts in the distance, and asked Liang Jing with a puzzled face.

"Oh...... These masters are all shamans sent by the Mobei grassland. You must have heard that the Mobei grassland is in alliance with our Youbei Three Roads. In the face of the war between the two norths, the Mobei people were really unable to draw troops to help due to natural disasters and famine, so they sent these shamans to assist our Northern Yan army; Long before the arrival of the second reinforcements, these shamans had already helped Master Xu to maintain the affairs of the Eastern Customs. ”

Lie Yan deliberately leaked a look of disdain, sneered and said:

Huang has never believed in these ghosts and gods, and from below, these people are no different from the charlatans who cheat and seek money. Now that the war between the two norths is a bloody battle with real swords and guns, what can they help if they send some magic sticks to Mobei? Could it be that Lord Liang believes in the spirit? Expecting them to sprinkle beans into soldiers is not possible? ”

Liang Jing saw that 'Huang Gongzi' was a little disdainful of the shaman, and hurriedly waved his hand to stop the flame's words:

"Hey! Huang Gongzi can't be so frivolous. To tell the truth, in fact, Liang didn't believe in the ghosts and gods, but Mobei and my Beiyan were still allies at this time after all, and these shamans were also goodwill released by their allies, so they couldn't be driven back to the grassland anyway, right? You must know that these shamans, whether they are Youbei Sanlu or Mobei Grassland, or even Sichuan and Shu in Western Xinjiang, their status is extremely respectful; If Liang is rude to them, it is tantamount to insulting the entire shamanic religion; And then again, although these shamans are suspected of pretending to be gods and ghosts, whether it is their unique shamanic secret medicine or the art of defending the city recorded in the shamanic classics, it is very beneficial for our Pingbei army and the people of this city......"

Speaking of this, Mr. Liang patted Huang Yuan, who was still disdainful, shook his head and said:

"Huang Gongzi is young and vigorous, and he will have a great future in the future; We can be regarded as acquaintances, and we are future business partners, and now Liang Mou said bluntly, I will send you a word to Young Master Huang: This person has his usefulness, and he must not generalize according to his own likes and dislikes. Just like these shamans, I don't listen to his ghosts, I just use their experience and secret medicine. ”

When Lie Yan heard Liang Jing's teachings, he looked humble on the surface, but secretly he was happy:

"My Brother Liang, my Mr. Liang! Open these shamans! The secret medicine of our He Wendao Great Shaman is a good thing that has been passed down from shamanism for thousands of years, and it must not be wasted! ”

Sent away more than a dozen God of Wealth, and all the civil and military officials present, including He Wendao, who falsely claimed to be a shaman of 'Mobei', and took more than 50 shamans under him into the hall of the Shuaifu. Because their original plan was to set off after dark, rescue the Yanjiagou battlefield as soon as possible, and completely strangle the last and only team in Youbei that can fight a tough battle, the Flying Bear Army.

After these shamans and generals entered the hall to discuss the matter, there was a big accident in the East China Sea City Pass.

The 150,000 troops stationed in the camp outside the West City Gate, plus the three classes of officials in the East Customs City, all pulled their stomachs. Of course, it is not surprising that such a problem arises at such a time.

Although it seems to be a collective poisoning disease, no one suspects that someone deliberately poisoned the food and water sources. All because no matter how good the military rations are sent to the front line, in this spring rainy season, after this transportation along the way, it will inevitably be some moldy and deteriorate; In addition to environmental influences such as soil and water adaptation, it is normal to pull up the stomach.

Moreover, this kind of diarrhea is different from the lafa that is poisoned by laxatives; Although I run the hut a little more often, I will feel smooth and comfortable after pulling it. This Eastern Customs is not as good as Yanjing, because they can't eat fresh fruits and vegetables, many sergeants have suffered from serious constipation; Now that I have run down the thatched house a few times, I am as light as a swallow, and my mood is much better. There are also many sergeants who think that this is the recipe that those Lang Zhong fell on in the diet!

Regardless of whether the cause of this mass diarrhea was poisoning or eating rotten food, in short, while Liang Jing and others were at the meeting, the defense force of the Eastern Customs was unprecedentedly empty; After the herald in the army came to inform Liang Jing, Liang Jing naturally ordered those Mobei shamans, as well as the military attendants of Beiyan, to go and jointly diagnose and treat the sick sergeant. Although the two sides use medicine and practice medicine in completely different ways, but now the war is imminent, no matter what kind of way these people are doing, the one that can pull out the pus is a good plaster.

So, the more than fifty shamans and wizards of He Wendao, plus the four Winter Solstice brothers led by Fourteen, finally began their actions.

From the mountains of goods in the warehouse, these people picked out the water tools that were broken down into various parts; Later, from many inconspicuous corners of the East Customs, a large wine urn was dug up; As if they were going to participate in a 'graffiti conference', these people used bamboo and wood water guns combined in their hands to evenly spray all the liquid in the wine urn to all corners of the East Customs.

After everything was done, He Wendao took all the shamans to the west gate and passed on the orders of Liang Jingliang, so that they could enter the city in an orderly manner and cure the diarrhea in order.

After the last garrison from outside the city entered the East Customs, the Fourteenth and the three Winter Solstice brothers closed the empty West City Gate and began to carry the 'precious goods' that were piled up in the warehouse and left behind by the Nankang Gongzi brothers.

It is said that their actions are not small, but the four of them have been working as folk husbands in the East Customs for several days, and they are like this every day to push carts and deliver materials, repair the city walls and gates, and do some of the work of the people. And now the city is full of diarrhea, and no one notices what the four deaf men are busy with;

At the same time, the great shaman He Wendao also carried out a 'disease and saving technology competition' activity with the soldiers of Beiyanlai. What makes Bei Yanlang depressed is that these shamans do not come to their own set of diagnosis and treatment methods of looking, smelling, asking, and cutting; Instead, they only took out a porcelain vase, and did not ask the other party how their health was, the severity of their illness, and only let the other party sniff deeply, and the endless stool disappeared without a trace.

And what makes these people wonder the most is that they don't have time to figure out the root cause of this mass diarrhea incident. Because the current Donghai Customs has been filled with hundreds of thousands of soldiers with diarrhea, and even a pungent stench is in the air......

Why does it cause such a pungent smell in feces, those Beiyan Lang Zhong was worried about their gray hair, and they didn't think of a reason.

And this strange pungent smell is not mysterious, nor is it complicated. It is a combination of two flavors.

The smell is, of course, from the smell of feces; And that pungent smell was the black liquid that Fourteen and He Wendao took out of the big wine jar buried deep in the ground and spilled it into every corner of the city.

This kind of thing, according to the shamanic texts, is called the fire god dew; And in the fragments of the classical books, it is also called fierce fire oil!
