Chapter 377: A Necessary Medicine for Killing People and Selling Goods

Yelu Dashi Mingjin withdrew his troops, and it seemed that there was no sign of attacking the city in a short time, and the Dingguo army at the head of the city breathed a sigh of relief, but Zhao Yougong frowned. In contrast, he hoped that the Liao people could continue to attack the city, and with those two iron rods and nets, the Liao people would be greatly hindered, and the Dingguo army would not have too much pressure to defend the city. Yelu Dashi is really a rare handsome talent, besieging the city with an army of 120,000, and still does not want to have unnecessary casualties. For no reason, Zhao Yougong felt a pressure, he knew that when the Liao people attacked the city again, it would be more violent and fierce than the previous two times.

Many of those soldiers of the Dingguo Army were talking excitedly, and they couldn't suppress the joy in their hearts, after all, it was 120,000 Liao soldiers, looking from the city wall, the Liao soldiers in the distance were all together, like boundless black clouds. In the face of so many people, no matter how well trained and determined they are, as a soldier of the Dingguo Army who has just stepped onto the battlefield, there is always some fear. For many years, when the Great Song Dynasty faced the Liao, he always won less and lost more, especially the last two fiascos, who can not be a little afraid? However, it is good to win, and the Liao soldiers can be repelled twice, and the confidence of the soldiers of the Dingguo Army has also increased a lot.

Before noon, Zhao Yougong and the generals accompanied the soldiers to eat something at the head of the city, at this critical moment, if he Zhao Yougong did not boost the morale at the head of the city, this would not be a good thing for the new Dingguo army. The new Dingguo Army is far from being a real elite division, and today's morale is accumulated by victory after victory, so it cannot be defeated, and once defeated, many hidden problems in the Dingguo Army will be exposed one by one. For a long time, Zhao Yougong knew that the soldiers of the Dingguo Army had an ambiguous attitude towards rebellion, and they used to live in order to survive. There is also a strict system of oppression. So it's calm. But once the army is defeated, the soldiers are not controlled, and then someone fanned the flames, and the contradiction would erupt like a volcano.

To win, to continue to win, to use constant victories and interests, to slowly twist this new Dingguo army into a rope.

Mu Wanqing took off her helmet and flicked the dust off it. Seeing Zhao Yougong sitting next to her without speaking, she tilted her body, touched her shoulder slightly, and asked with a smile, "Did you say that the Liao people would continue to attack the city in a while?" ”

"It will definitely attack the city, Yelu Dashi has led the troops for many years, and there are many capable people around him, so it is estimated that it will not be long before he can come up with a way to crack it."

"Look at your sad face, do you need this? Yelu Dashi can crack it, can't you think of new tricks? You let that big official ponder, isn't he used to having bad ideas? "Timber Lady has always spoken straightforwardly. Shuangli was a little funny, and before King Zhao Xiaojun could reply, he heard an "ouch" not far away.

There is no war in the city, as a dog-headed military division, how can the eastern officials have to come up to understand the situation, and they can prepare for the future, right? Coincidentally, when I climbed up to the top of the city, I heard the words of the wooden woman, "Wood lady, is a certain family really so unbearable?" ”

It's obviously a scheming and far-reaching strategy, how did it become a bad idea in the mouth of the Wood Woman? The Dongfang officials were quite unconvinced, and the wooden woman looked at her mouth and snorted coldly, "What, is there something wrong?" Let me ask you, where did the hundred jars of Lei Gongteng that were soaked in the General's Mansion go some time ago? ”

Dongfang Jin couldn't reply at this time, he grabbed the head of the city and instinctively glanced down at the iron stick. The hundred jars of thunder vines let him smear the iron rod, but this bad idea really didn't come up with him, and only His Highness could think of the damage trick of smearing the thunder vine on the iron rod. But His Royal Highness is His Royal Highness, his identity is there, and some black cauldrons have to be carried by him, a dog-headed military master, if the brothers know that His Highness is so damaged, won't it affect His Highness's glorious and tall image?

Seeing that the big officials were deflated, King Zhao Xiaojun also smiled a little unwillingly, stretched out his hand and dragged the soft little hand of the wooden woman, and said seriously, "Wan'er, what are you talking about, Mr. Dongfang has thought of so many ways, and it is also for the sake of tens of thousands of brothers in the Dingguo Army!" ”

"Ahem" The Dongfang official arched his hands very interestingly and said solemnly, "Where, where, Your Highness has praised falsely, as long as the brothers die a few less, it will not hurt to let a certain family bear more infamy." ”

There was a group of soldiers sitting at the head of the city, and when they heard the words of the big officials in the East, they were immediately moved by a group of rammers, and a few of them were too excited, and they opened their mouths and shouted, "Military advisor, good people."

Zhao Yougong secretly scolded in his heart, I rely on it, the big officials will really take advantage of the opportunity, and it is estimated that these words have won him a lot of supporters.

After pulling the skin for a while, bragging with the soldiers at the head of the city, and enlivening the atmosphere, after a while, the big official walked back leisurely, sat next to Zhao Yougong, lowered his voice and said worriedly, "Your Highness, your trick is not effective, why haven't the Liao people on the other side moved?" ”

"What are you anxious about? When did this king lie to you? If you don't believe it, you go to the city and grab a random Langzhong, and ask them what kind of thing Lei Gongteng is" Halfway through the words, King Zhao Xiaojun stopped talking, because he saw that the wooden woman had already begun to roll his eyes with his small mouth cocked.

Hmph, I know that I can't run away from this thief, but I'm curious, what use can Lei Gongtian have?

The official's face was a little strange, he looked left and right, and after making sure that there was nothing to pay attention to, he put his hand to his mouth and muttered in a low voice, "Your Highness, you haven't asked your subordinates, your subordinates have asked several Langzhong a few days ago, but those Langzhong all said that Lei Gongyi is a good medicine, which can cure leprosy and cough fever, and has a good effect of detoxification." ”

"It's all a bunch of quacks, who said that if you can detoxify, you can't poison people? I usually eat too much and choke to death! If you really don't know how to learn and don't know how to do it, you don't know that Tripterygium wilfordii can be used as a poison, so you should know the yellow rattan and water mangweed in the southeast, right? ”

It's also hell, the big official and the wooden woman shook their heads at the same time, Zhao Xiaojunwang was a little dizzy, and it was clear after thinking about it carefully, Song Ci didn't know which mother's womb he was nesting in these years, without "Clearing Grievances", the world naturally didn't know that Lei Gongteng was a necessary medicine for killing people and overselling goods.

Tripterygium wilfordii, also known as yellow wax vine, water mangweed, this thing has strong vitality, can rise anywhere, just cut out of the soil and bite it is still sweet, so in Shandong, the southeast coastal area every spring and summer, there will be children digging thunder vine to bite and eat. And the folk Langzhong will also mash the thunder wilford. It is used as a medicinal herb. This Tripterygium wilfordii has water or not. Just mash and apply externally. It can cure rheumatism, detoxification, swelling and pain relief. But now no one knows that Tripterygium wilford has another wonderful use, which is to kill insects. In the late Song Dynasty, Ming and Qing dynasties, the common people would soak some thunder wilfordii with water in the courtyard every year, as long as they soaked for a while, those water sprinkled in the crops, it could play a good effect of killing insects, it was simply the ancient version of the insecticidal pesticide. The water soaked in Tripterygium wilfordii can kill insects, and it can naturally kill people. However, it needs to be smoked in large quantities, and if a small amount is infected, it will cause dizziness, headache, palpitations, fatigue, nausea and vomiting, and the symptoms are like being infected with wind and cold. In the strictest cases, it will also lead to symptoms such as blood in the urine and dehydration shock.

Rub the thunder witz potion on the iron rod, measure that Yelu Dashi has the ability to reach the heavens and can't even think of it, and wait until a large number of people with wind and cold symptoms appear in the Liao army camp, and don't you scare Yelu Dashi so much that he can't eat? In ancient times, when marching and fighting, one was afraid that there would be no baggage, and the other was afraid of large-scale epidemics. It's okay to say that the baggage is heavy. This epidemic has always been if it is not handled well. What makes people panic, and the morale can be imagined.

Listening to King Zhao Xiaojun's explanation of the wonderful use of Lei Gongteng, the wooden woman held her face and said curiously, "Thief, where did you hear it?" ”

"Hey, hey, the tutor taught me!" Zhao Yougong once again deducted the basin on the head of his teacher, he couldn't help it, he couldn't sue others that he was Shennong and tasted a hundred herbs, right? If he wants to say, someone has to believe it, right?

I don't know if the big officials believe it or not, anyway, the wooden woman doesn't believe it, no matter how unreliable the Shaolin monks are, it is impossible to teach their apprentices how to poison.

On the tenth day of the fifth month, after the Liao army attacked the city twice, there was no movement, which even King Zhao Xiaojun did not expect.

When night fell, Jerodashi sat in the tent with a gloomy face, and a tray was placed on the desk, and the food in it did not move at all. Yelu Dashi didn't have any appetite at all, and he didn't think of a solution to the iron rod net, and many wounded soldiers in the camp began to have symptoms of wind and cold from the end of the day today, and at first the witch doctor in the army didn't take it seriously, only as the sequelae of the injury, who would have thought that within an hour, more than 4,000 of the more than 6,000 injured people had wind and cold symptoms, and now even a fool knows that something is wrong.

Human beings are inherently afraid of the unknown, and the Khitans are more afraid of epidemics than Han Chinese, because they all regard epidemics as the punishment of the sun god. The emergence of a large-scale epidemic in the army is obviously the hands and feet of the Han people, and no one knows whether this epidemic will be contagious, so the people in the army are panicked.

In the Liao army camp outside the south gate of Wuzhou, after the large-scale wind chill symptoms appeared in the army, Xiao Sixian became uneasy, and he didn't want to be infected with that kind of wind chill. After pondering for a while, Xiao Si first summoned his own soldiers, and then ordered the more than 500 wounded soldiers who had contracted the wind and cold to be concentrated in the southernmost part of the camp. It is reasonable to isolate the wounded soldiers, but Xiao Sixian is Xiao Sixian, and this Xiao Second General also asked those who were seriously ill to be sent directly to the Hades Palace, followed by a fire and burning their corpses.

Yelu Dashi was sitting in the tent pondering how to deal with the epidemic problem, when he heard footsteps outside, and after a while, he saw Xiao Gan running in sweating, "Dashuai, it's a big deal, Xiao Si killed some wounded soldiers first, General Gao is theorizing with him, you go and take a look!" ”

"What?" Yelu Dashi almost didn't stare out of his eyes, and it's Xiao Sixian again, can't this bastard make people save a little bit? Originally, the siege of the city was unfavorable, and there was an epidemic, and the morale in the army was already low, and this Xiao Lao Er also killed and injured soldiers, what did this make the soldiers think?

Stood up and galloped to the south gate camp, as soon as he entered the camp gate, he saw that the two sides were facing each other, Yelu Dashi hurriedly shouted, "A group of useless things, have the ability to send to the Han people in Wuzhou City, and their own people fight with their own people, you really give Ben Shuai a face." ”

Gao Xingyue's eyes widened, and he pointed at Xiao Sixian and said angrily, "Dashuai, you give a judgment, this bastard actually killed the injured brother!" Of course, Gao Xingyue had reason to be angry, he took more than 20,000 brothers out of Xijing and into Pinglu City, and then to Wuzhou, attacked the city twice, and killed thousands of people, but now he was cut down by Xiao Si more than 100 living people.

If you can, Yelu Dashi wants to slap Xiao Si into the ground first, this gentleman who has not achieved enough things and has more than enough failures, is it okay to stay in the capital to enjoy happiness?

"Second General Xiao, should you give Ben Shuai an explanation?"

"Marshal, don't blame Xiao, Xiao is also thinking about the entire army, once the epidemic breaks out and infects the army, the consequences are unimaginable. Da Shuai doesn't know the situation of those people, some of them urinate out of blood, their eyes are white, in order to protect the other brothers who have nothing to do, Xiao sent them away to burn, why not? ”

"You" Yelu Dashi knew that Xiao Sixian was purely afraid of death, and he was afraid of being infected by the epidemic, so he killed people and set fires, but he was suffering from no evidence, and what Xiao Lao Er said was the truth, and it could not be said that it was unreasonable. After a long while, Yelu Dashi forced himself to calm down, he looked at Xiao Sixian, and said with a dark smile, "Even if you are reasonable, how do you know that those people are not saved?" ”

"Hey, Dashuai, Xiao is only responsible for his subordinates, if you want to save people, Dashuai will figure it out by himself!" Xiao Sixian scoffed at Yelu Dashi's words, if there was really a way to save him, wouldn't Yelu Dashi be used earlier?

Xiao Sixian's voice was not mean, but the soldiers and horses in Beijing would not say anything, because General Xiao Er also wanted to send those wounded soldiers away, and the army in Beijing was also infected. (To be continued......)
