Qin Feng led 200,000 Qin troops to Lushui, and saw that there were many Tucheng banners on the south bank, so he temporarily pressed the camp and sent scouts to survey the terrain along the north bank.

Three days later, the scout reported: "Two hundred miles before and after, not a single ferry boat has been found." The water in Lushui is turbulent, and wherever the land can be landed on the opposite bank, there are earthen walls everywhere, and there are brute soldiers guarding them. ”

It was already April, and in the tropical jungle, it was hot and humid, and the heat was unbearable. The soldiers and horses of the Qin army put on the clothes that were dry after drying, and they would be soaked in less than two minutes. Wearing wet clothes and armor for a long time, many soldiers developed skin diseases. Only then did Qin Feng know why the Southern Barbarians only wore trousers, but he had no choice but to let all the soldiers and horses learn from the barbarians and only wear trousers.

However, if you don't wear clothes and armor, you can't have any energy, how can you fight the enemy?

On this day, Qin Feng personally came to the shore to observe the situation on the south bank, and after returning to the imperial tent, he entered the inner tent to change into dry clothes. As soon as he entered the tent, he saw that Xin Xianying was just wearing a thin undershirt.

When Xin Xianying saw Qin Feng coming in, she hurriedly helped him take off his wet clothes and put on new ones.

It turned out that Xin Xianying was also too hot to bear, anyway, the quilt was also warm, and the night pot was also mentioned, and everything was encountered. Anyway, just holding on to the last line of defense, you can't be deceived by Emperor Hongwu, and everything else doesn't matter.

In this way, it made Qin Feng "angry" every day.

Xin Xianying fanned the beauty and sent Qin Feng out of the account. Qin Feng fanned the big pu fan and entered the outer tent with his arms open. Guo Jia and the others were itchy when they saw that the emperor was so cool, but they couldn't lose their dignity in front of the king, so they could only stubbornly wear wet official uniforms.

Qin Feng fanned his fan. He sat down and said, "Meng was guarding the south bank and building a high wall. Resist my armies. At present, I can't find a way to break the enemy for a while. Immediately give the order. The generals of all the troops, by the mountains and trees, looking for a cool place, all went to recuperate. Don't think about the time to break the enemy, the soldiers have no strength to fight. ”

When everyone heard this, it made sense, so they quickly took action. Qin Feng Benzhai, Xu Huang, Huang Zhong, Yan Yan, a total of four villages, all built a draft shed inside and outside the village, and the soldiers and horses rested almost naked to avoid the heat.

South.

Meng Huo had also learned of the Qin army's suffering. Barbarians have been accustomed to the scorching heat of the jungle for generations. Meng Shu is like a monster, drinking and having fun in the cool cave every day. On this day, he informed the barbarian chieftain who came to drink Zhuge Liang's words, "This is just the beginning, the Qin army can't stand the scorching heat in my territory, and will definitely retreat." At that time, you followed a certain chase out and killed Qin Zijin to avenge his hatred. Let the people of Middle-earth know how powerful our Nanban is! ”

When he was drinking, Liu Bei took Zhuge Liang to Menghuzhai. The two of them were sweating hotly, and Liu Bei wrapped himself in a dragon robe in order to maintain his prestige. Zhuge Liang followed behind him. One will fan Liu Bei with a feather fan, and the other will slap himself a few times.

When the barbarian generals saw their miserable condition, it was like seeing the miserable situation of the Qin army. They laughed.

Liu Bei finally knew that Zhuge Liang had lost his foundation and looked up to people for a snort. Here it is. Even a little barbarian soldier was not polite, and Liu Bei couldn't wait to fight back immediately.

Meng Shu laughed. Pointing to a large rock beside him, "Sit, sit." ”

Liu Bei has always sat on the throne, and he has made earth and stones there, but even Meng Shu sits on a big stone, because his butt is cool.

As soon as Zhuge Liang waved his hand, a Shu soldier walked in carrying the dragon chair, and Liu Bei sat down. The barbarians were disdainful for a while, if it weren't for Liu Bei's friendship with Meng Shu, they would have been clamoring a long time ago.

"Emperor Liu Bei, what are you doing here with me?" Meng Shu died a lot for Liu Bei, and the kindness was repaid, but now he is just giving Liu Bei a face.

Liu Bei was so hot that he waved his hand at Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang hurriedly shook the feather fan and said: "Cave master, downstream of Lushui, there is a place called Shakou, is the water very shallow?" ”

Meng Shumeng nodded, "Not bad." ”

Liu Bei hurriedly said: "If Qin Zijin comes out, he must enter the army from Shakou, and quickly divide the troops to guard." ”

Meng Shu smiled when he heard this, looked at Zhuge Liang triumphantly and said, "This is the plan of the cave master, and Zhuge military advisors have not seen it. ”

"Scheme?" Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that you arranged the soldiers and horses very clearly, you are negligent and have a fart plan.

Seeing that he didn't understand, Meng Shu was even more proud, so he said in a tricky way: "This cave master is just going to let Qin Zijin cross the water from here, how many people he comes, how many people die." ”

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang didn't understand it even more, and their faces were anxious.

After Meng Shu teased him, he pointed at Ah Hui and muttered, "You tell Emperor Liu Bei about it." ”

Ah Hui murmured and said, "Emperor, you are not from us here, I don't know the depths. This water is the most poisonous in April and May, as long as people wade in the water, they will definitely die! ”

"Will the water still be poisonous?" Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang couldn't figure it out.

"Come, drink, drink!" Meng Shu raised his glass and said.

A few more days passed.

The Qin army was given a period of rest, and its combat strength recovered a lot.

On this day, Qin Feng was looking closely at a curtain tent in the inner tent, and saw a three-dimensional dynamic beauty picture reflected on the curtain, with graceful curves, convex and backward. With the sound of rushing water, Emperor Hongwu sucked his saliva. It turned out that Xianying needed to take a bath on a hot day, although he knew that Emperor Hongwu was a big monster, but he could only nest with the monster, but fortunately, there was a curtain to block it.

There was a report from outside, Guo Jia came to the imperial tent to ask for a meeting, Qin Feng had to leave the fragrant inner tent and shake the pu fan into the outer tent.

"Your Majesty, the scout has found the sand mouth recorded in the "Pingman's Finger Map", and sure enough, the water is not knee-shallow, just standing in the army." Guo Jia said.

Qin Feng was overjoyed and said, "What does the military advisor mean?" ”

Guo Jia had already made up his mind, and said: "Guo Jia observed the shape of the opposite bank day and night, and calculated more than 100,000 barbarians on the south bank, and it is expected that all the forces of Meng Shu are concentrated here, so his rear must be empty." If it is a large-scale army, it will definitely be discovered by the enemy. It is better to send 5,000 soldiers and horses to smuggle through Lushui. With high risks, cut off the enemy's grain routes. The enemy must panic and come to the rescue, and there will inevitably be flaws. Or hold out for two or three days, and the enemy will run out of food ....... Then. Our army will be able to cross the river on a large scale. ”

Qin Fenghuo fanned the fan violently, and felt that this was a good plan. Then he said: "Fengxiao's plan is wonderful! He immediately shook his hand and said, "Feng Xiao is fully responsible for this matter." ”

"Yes!"

After Guo Jia left, the fiery Qin Feng hurriedly returned to the inner tent to satisfy his thoughts. found a white and tender beauty, two lines of nosebleeds were immediately left, and shouted: "Could it be that Xianying wants to fulfill me!" ”

"Ahh The emperor is dreaming! Xin Xianying screamed and ran back to the curtain with her red clothes. It turned out that she forgot to take the new dirty clothes, so she said that she was bold enough to take it while Qin Feng was deliberating, but she didn't expect to be hit by Qin Feng.

Qin Feng hurriedly found two pieces of cloth and plugged his nose, and said in his heart that the blood was flowing in vain, how much would he have to eat to make up for it!

When Emperor Hongwu had a nosebleed, Xu Huang and Shamoke led 5,000 soldiers and horses to secretly leave the camp. Head downstream to Shakou.

After the two led the troops to Shakou, they saw that the water was not knee-deep, so they waved their troops directly into it. However, the front part had just been launched, and with a crackling sound, everyone lost consciousness and smashed directly into the riverbed. Xu Huang was shocked and ordered someone to go ashore in first aid, and all those who fell into the water bled to death.

"There must be a brute who is haunting you!" The barbarian Shamoko exclaimed.

And so. Xu Huang didn't dare to cross the river again, and hurriedly sent someone to inform Qin Feng.

Qin Feng was shocked when he learned about this, and carefully sorted out the memories of the future generations, and then suddenly realized. It turned out that it was a hot day. The poisonous gas gathers on the water, and people inhale it when they pass through the water, and they will inevitably be poisoned. When Zhuge Liang was conquering the barbarians, he encountered Lushui. but in the middle of the night, when the water is cold, and the poisonous gas is gone. The sergeant crossed the river with a full meal.

Before Qin Feng informed the generals of the news, rumors were already spreading throughout the army. The rumor stems from a superstitious statement by Shamoko. "Demonic haunting!" And the soldiers who crossed the river died in a miserable state, and they died suddenly without warning. Many soldiers were familiar with these dead soldiers, how could a young, strong, and diseaseless person suddenly die, it must be the work of evil spirits.

Of course, Qin Feng would not believe that it was related to demons, that the water was poisonous, and that it was related to the geological and ecological environment of the southwest region. In tropical jungles, insects such as flies, mosquitoes, and cockroaches multiply quickly, and bacteria multiply faster. All kinds of organic matter, such as the dead branches and leaves of trees, decay very quickly. Animal excrement is also more susceptible to fermentation, decomposition, and decay, producing a series of toxic substances. These animals pollute the water and soil resources, enter the water with rainwater, or seep into the ground, and gush out of the springs, polluting the water.

Rumours cannot be allowed to spread, and they are not good for morale. Later generations still had many superstitions, and Qin Feng could not explain these scientific principles clearly to the ancients.

Guo Jia's face was anxious, and he said, "Your Majesty, what should I do?" The weather was hot, and the soldiers were already impetuous, which allowed the rumors to spread faster. ”

Qin Feng frowned, smiled slightly, and said, "This is not a demon, but a local river god's disrespectful order." You can tell all the soldiers that when you come to Japan, you will sacrifice to the river on behalf of the heavens and communicate with the gods here. ”

"Ah......h Guo Jia was dumbfounded, Jia Xu also opened his mouth wide, they are the level of the silent strange power and confusion, I didn't expect the Son of Heaven to communicate with the gods head-on!

Jia Xu woke up and said carefully: "Your Majesty, you ...... You...... Are you sure? ”

"It's okay, in terms of god position, I'm still above the local river god. When I was sleepwalking in the heavens, I participated in the Pan Tao Club, as if the river god here had toasted me! Qin Feng puffed up his tongue as much as he could, blowing the conch.

"You Heavenly Court! Pan Tao will? The river god toasted! Like a thunderbolt from the blue, Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others lost their way in Emperor Hongwu's shocking words.

After the news spread to the whole army, it was out of control, but it was developing for the better. "The emperor wants to sacrifice the river!"

"Do you know that the emperor wants to talk to the river god about this matter?"

"Cut, the emperor's god position is still above the river god, talking to the river god is to give him face!"

"I was the one who guarded the emperor when he went to the heavenly court, and I saw the emperor ......."

"Phew, you kid blow you!"

Ancient people were so lovely, they believed in the gods, otherwise there would not be a ruling class who spent a lot of money to worship the heavens. (To be continued......)
