Chapter 573: Poison Gas
It has been a few days since Gu Chen and the others arrived at the border of Miaojiang, and these days, they have been camping thirty miles away from Wucheng, and the scouts who went to investigate the enemy's situation have returned.
Handsome in the account.
Gu Chen was standing on the side of the sand table with several generals to analyze the terrain, and the scout came in to report: "Gu Shuai, the last general has already inquired, and now the Miao people occupy the fog city, and they still have a lot of smoke bombs in their hands, the smoke is poisonous, as long as you smell it, a few breaths of kung fu can make people breathless, very powerful." ”
As soon as the scout's voice fell, the faces of several generals and adjutant generals on the side changed in unison.
As the name suggests, because of the topography, there is fog all year round, it is a city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, especially when the morning dawns, the fog is the thickest.
In this way, it is no wonder that the original defenders of the city will lose the opportunity.
"The original generals who defended the city suffered the loss of this thing, those Miao people used pill throwers to hit the poisonous smoke bombs into the city, they almost took down the fog city without blood, the soldiers of the original fog city were killed and nine wounded, and even the people in the city died most of the people, and now the fog city is almost all Miao people." The scout said angrily and bitterly.
"Now that they are holding on to the city, as long as they don't go out lightly, it will be difficult for us to open a hole and attack it." The scout looked at Gu Chen with a solemn face and said, "If they didn't need my people from the east to strengthen the city or do some coolies for them, they wouldn't have even left the last half of the people." ”
The Miao Jiang people have always been ruthless, they have captured a city, they will kill most of the useless people, and the rest will be used to do coolies for them, and when they are used up, they will also blow up the value of the rest of the people, and they will kill them all.
Cold-blooded and ruthless.
"Now, they have occupied this fog city for more than a month, and the original food stock in this fog city may be almost consumed, and I am afraid that when the time comes, they will kill all our people in the city." At the end of the day, the scout's eyes couldn't help but redden.
Because, since ancient times, the two countries will not slaughter the people of the enemy country at will when they go to war, and it is really unprecedented for people like Miaojiang to kill them without consuming food when they run out.
As the scout's words fell, there was silence in the tent.
After a long time, a staff general said indignantly: "Marshal, we can no longer allow them to continue to humiliate our people, we must think of breaking the city as soon as possible." ”
"However, there were reinforcements coming to help before, wanting to break the city, but in the end, they couldn't defeat their poisonous smoke bombs, let alone attack the city, and there were a lot of casualties, if we can't solve this problem, the strong attack will only send them to death." Another general said.
"Are we at such a stalemate?" The general said in a raised voice, "Isn't it useless for us to come all the way?" ”
The atmosphere in the tent sank suddenly, and one of them had a temper and punched a chair, and the table was instantly shattered into pieces.
"Lao Wei, calm down, Gu Shuai hasn't spoken yet!" A bearded general stretched out his hand to grab the hot-tempered general and said.
"Yes, let's listen to what Gu Shuai has to say, don't be rough at every turn, now that we are out of the house, there are not many supplies, and we will destroy a chair with one more punch, where will we go back to find a chair?"
Everyone persuaded the man with a word, and then looked at Gu Chen with burning eyes one by one, but Gu Chen sat on the main seat with a teacup from beginning to end, and his eyes were deep and he didn't know where he was looking, even if there was a quarrel in the handsome tent, it didn't affect him.
It wasn't until someone called him that he pulled his mind back.
Among them, there are many people who are not convinced by Gu Chen, thinking that this young man who has never fought a war and has not grown up will fight? It's just that relying on the emperor's favor, let him lead the soldiers to send him to death, at this time everyone is discussing the big things in front of him, but he is distracted, and I don't know if his mind is running back to the capital to think about his wife and children.
However, this dissatisfaction and dissatisfaction are only in the heart, and no one dares to show it.
Gu Chen put down the teacup and said thoughtfully: "That kind of poisonous smoke will be poisoned just by inhaling it in the body, or can it be poisoned as long as it is stained on the body?" ”
Everyone was stunned, and no one answered this question for a while.
At this time, Qiu Ye, the guard of the former Fog City, stepped forward and hugged his fists and said: "Gu Shuai, that poisonous smoke is not so powerful, it will only be poisoned if it is inhaled into the body, if it is just stained, it will not be." ”
Qiu Ye was originally guarding the fog city, but after the city was broken, he retreated dozens of miles with the remaining remnants of the army, and now the strength is less than thirty percent, until Gu Chen's reinforcements came, he led the rest of the soldiers and horses to converge, lost the city, he was not qualified to stand here.
But Gu Chen felt that none of them who had traveled thousands of miles from the capital were more familiar with the situation here than him, so he kept him for the first time and waited until the battle was over.
Therefore, with the heart of atonement to the crime, Qiu Ye did not dare to hide it, and from the time Gu Chen and the others camped here, he reported everything he knew about 1510.
He lost the city, and it is not a pity to die, but he hopes that he will not be able to bring disaster to his relatives.
"Is it only inhalation to be poisoned?" Gu Chen raised his eyebrows and said.
Qiu Ye nodded, and said with certainty: "We have fought against the Miao people several times, and it is certain that only inhalation will be poisoned." ”
When Gu Chen heard this, he immediately laughed: "In this way, it will be easy to do." ”
When everyone heard this, they were immediately shocked, and asked in unison: "I don't know what Gu Shuai can do?" ”
A touch of pride appeared on Gu Chen's face, and his tone rose slightly: "Before I left the capital, my wife specially made some masks for me, this kind of mask has been soaked in a special potion, which can be poison-proof, tonight, we can try the effect of this mask." ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then everyone looked at him with complicated faces, and stopped talking.
The general named Lao Wei couldn't hold his breath and asked: "Gu Shuai, the enemy is now, don't be joking, Mrs. Zun is a woman, and she still knows what to do about marching and fighting?" She just did it, and it must be used for general nocturnal masking, where can it be so useful? Besides, how did she know what kind of poison it was? ”
Everyone nodded when they heard this, and thought in unison, it seems that this young man is really focused on the beauty of the family, where does he know what to fight, and he still wants to show affection here at this time, I really don't know what to do.
However, no one dared to show this disdain, after all, although Gu Chen looked young, they had already seen the power of his first arrival in the army, and they didn't want to challenge him.
"General Wei, do you believe this?" Gu Chen glanced at him, and at a glance, he knew what he was thinking.
However, there is no need for him to have fearless disputes with these people who don't understand Qin Niang's goodness, he just needs to prove it to them.
At this time, a burst of laughter sounded from outside the tent: "Superficial, do you know who improved this new type of firearm today?" ”
Everyone turned their heads in unison, and saw Lin Yao wearing a moon-white robe, shaking a folding fan, looking like a beautiful son, which formed a sharp contrast with the people here.
Before everyone could speak, he went down to himself, "This is the woman in your mouth." ”
What the?
Everyone gasped in unison, their eyes full of disbelief.
Lin Yao didn't expect them to believe it either, he just told a fact.
"What are you doing here?" Gu Chen glanced at him angrily and said lightly.
Lin Yaowu poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and said, "I'm a military doctor, why can't I come?" ”
Did he think he wanted to come? It's not that this guy is suddenly going to take on some handsome seal, the second young master of the Gu family is not right, and he wants to run to this side to fight, as a brother, can he sit and ignore it?
Besides, before leaving, Qin Niang specially explained to him, asking him to keep an eye on him, if there is a case, she must do her best to save him, and she will do everything for them in the rear.
If a woman can say such things, what is there to fear from a man?
"You also know that you are just a military doctor, we are all here to discuss business, you better go back to your camp." Gu Chen was too lazy to rub his tongue with him, and began to drive people away.
"Hey, don't be in a hurry to drive me away, I came here to tell you something, about the poisonous smoke of the Miao people, I thought of a way, didn't my sister-in-law make you dozens of anti-virus masks? You're going to send dozens of people to put on masks tonight and go to scare the snakes. Lin Yao said mysteriously.
The corners of Gu Chen's mouth twitched, and he said: "I am planning to do this, you don't have to come here as an afterthought, I have simply discussed my thoughts with the generals just now." ”
Lin Yao's eyes widened: "The two of us really have a good understanding." ”
Gu Chen glanced at him, and squeezed out a word from his mouth cleanly: "Get out." ”
Lin Yao knew that if he didn't leave, he might be thrown out in the next moment, so he had to stand up and leave with a stupid hand, and before leaving, he didn't forget to add: "The mask made by my sister-in-law, I know how to do it, do you need me to get you another batch?" ”
Gu Chen saw that he finally said something human, so he gave him a straight face, nodded and said, "It's best to get more, even if you don't use it in Fog City, it can always be useful elsewhere." ”
Miao people are good at drugs, and it is always right to guard against them.
Lin Yao nodded, didn't ramble anymore, and turned around to do what he had to do.
"Gu Shuai, what did Doctor Lin say just now, what does it mean to startle the snake?" Someone couldn't help but ask shamelessly.
"General Wei, don't you don't believe in the effect of this mask? It's up to you to pick fifty people out tonight, and personally take them to the outside of Fog City to call for battle, and by the way, bring a few more firecrackers. ”
