The exploration on the Huai River yielded no results, and Wen Qi was a little disappointed, and sat down with a few people to discuss the attack on Runan.

Zhang Fei, who was almost healed from his injuries, was the first to ask for battle: "The lord gave me 5,000 men and horses, and I Zhang Fei will invite the lord to go to Runan for a drink at night." ”

"As a county town, Runan has high walls and thick walls, which is different from the county town we fought before, plus 15,000 defenders, the hope of attacking is too small, and even if it is defeated, I am afraid that there will be countless casualties."

Guan Yu helped the long beard and said: "According to what Liao Yuanyun said, the Yellow Turban Army in Runan has sent a thousand people to hunt down and kill the defected Peng Tuo, and while these people have not returned, our army will kill all the Yellow Turban troops who went out of the city to plunder, reduce the number of Yellow Turban troops in the city as much as possible, and then besiege the city and storm it." ”

"But these Yellow Turban wrestlers and Yellow Turban Warlocks are still in the city, as long as they defend the city, it is still too difficult, but now the newly elected Qu Shuai of the Runan Yellow Turban Army is still learning spells with Bocai in Yingchuan, if you don't fight, it will be even more difficult to fight in the future." Gao Shun's brows furrowed.

"I must fight, but if I want to find a way to reduce casualties as much as possible, I decided to sneak into Runan City!" Wen Qi said what he had been thinking about for a long time.

"How can the lord be in danger!" Several generals all stood up against it.

Now that Guang Liaohua has infiltrated Runan alone, he has indeed inquired a lot of information, but in addition, he can't do anything alone, and in order to avoid being bewitched by the Yellow Turban Army, it is inconvenient for him to do many things, but Wenqi is different, with his own evil breaking attributes, and he has the evil sword in his hand, no matter how much the Yellow Turban Army bewitches him, it is useless, and even he can bring a few more people in and wait for the opportunity to cause some destruction, and the Yin Yang Jade Perry still has a strange soldier to call.

After suppressing the opposition of the generals, Wen Qi sent someone to find Fang Cheng again.

This achievement is the commander of the Yellow Turban Army in the ancient city before, after being defeated by Wenqi, he repented and has been treating diseases and saving people in the ancient city.

"What are you looking for me?" Fang Cheng entered the county office, saw Wenqi, and was a little puzzled.

"Fang Cheng, what medicine do you have, colorless and tasteless, after drinking it, it will make people unable to go to the ground for ten days, or even ten days."

Fang Cai thought for a while and said: "If you have been for such a long time, you can't do it, unless you poison him to death!" ”

"Poison?" Wenqi hesitated.

"Could it be that you want to deal with someone and don't want him to die?" Fang Cheng saw that Wenqi was hesitant, so he asked tentatively.

"Yes, it's better not to go so far as to poison people."

"Ten days is too long, if it's three or four days, the villain has a way."

"What's the solution?"

"As long as the croton is paired with snake and rattan grass, after the average person drinks it, they will have diarrhea for at least two to three days, and they can't eat much in the next two days, so they can't go to the ground."

"How many crotons and snake vine grass do you have?"

"It's all common things, if it's just medicine to make people have diarrhea, how much or how much."

"Prepare 20,000 for me."

Fang Cheng raised his head in surprise and glanced at Wen Qi, then retired and prepared to prepare for Wen Qi's medicinal herbs.

"Twenty thousand people of poison were also prepared." Wen Qi still added.

Three days later, Wen Qi took Gao Shun, Liao Hua and Li Tong plus ten personal soldiers, disguised as the Yellow Turban Army, and headed towards Runan, which would inevitably attract the attention of others.

With the continuous advancement of several people, Runan City also gradually appeared in front of Wenqi, the majestic city wall is nearly four zhang high, the city wall is full of Yellow Turban Army flags, thousands of defenders stand at the head of the city, and the Yellow Turban Army is constantly entering and exiting the city, some are holding refugees, some are carrying the property that has just been robbed, these Yellow Turban Army are all dispatched in batches when they go out, but when they come back, they are sparse and lala, they are sparse and slow to go, they are smiling, they are less or not grabbed, they are depressed, ready to go back to the city to sleep.

"It's not a county town, it's really majestic, it looks like it's mine." Wenqi, as the county magistrate of Runan, actually came to Runan for the first time, and couldn't help laughing at himself.

There were a few Yellow Turban soldiers standing at the door, and they were inspecting the soldiers returning to the city, the Yellow Turban Army was poorly equipped, there was no token at all, and they all relied on code words to confirm their identities.

Wen Qi and his party came to the city gate, Liao Hua walked up, and was about to make a secret signal, but the Yellow Turban Army had already recognized Liao Hua and said, "Brother Liao, did you go out and grab any good things this time?" ”

"After a day of running in vain, I'm hungry." Liao Hua replied that during this period of time, Liao Hua had already known these Yellow Turban soldiers guarding the city gate.

"Brother Liao, if you make a windfall, you have to remember a few of us!"

"Don't say it, I didn't grab it today, but I grabbed a little bit yesterday, a little meaning, and I salute a few brothers."

After Liao Hua finished speaking, he stuffed two taels of silver into the hands of one of them, and these Yellow Turban soldiers accepted the silver, and immediately smiled happily, and happily let Wenqi and his party enter the city.

As a county seat, Runan occupies a huge area, and the Yellow Turban Army has a total of 15,000 people, only one corner of the camp, and Liao Hua led everyone to find a remote house to hide first.

"My lord, these Yellow Turban Army soldiers do not check whether the personnel are staying at night, but it is better for us to live with them as well, and the assembly must arrive early in the morning, there will be people who bewitch everyone, once at the time of the assembly, except for the Yellow Turban Army defending the city, there are other people staying in the city, it is regarded as apostasy, and will be immediately killed, I used to stuff some cotton balls in my ears, or when they preached, I kept thinking about other things in my head." Liao Hua said to Wen Qi.

"We hide everything here, eat and live with them, avoid arousing suspicion, ask as soon as possible where the water source of the Yellow Turban Army is drinking, how many water sources there are, and then poison and leave, it shouldn't take a few days, we are a group of people who are easy to be found together, everyone gathers with them normally, and after listening to it, they all come to me, I only have a way to crack it."

After Wen Qi finished explaining, he asked Liao Hua to go to the place where the Yellow Turban Army was stationed to find another room with few people, so that more than a dozen of them could live.

Late at night when Wenqi and Luda were separated in the Huai River, Ling Cao and a dozen of his men were desperately setting up a boat in the direction of the ancient city, and Ling Cao stood at the bow of the boat, swearing in his mouth.

"This Jinfan thief asked us to go to Nanyang to seek refuge with Wen Taishou, but Wen Taishou obviously returned to the ancient city, causing us to go to Nanyang for nothing."

"That's it, tell the eldest brother to come over and join Master Wen, but he didn't come, and he said that he would go back to practice his skills, who would believe it, I guess I went to be a bandit again!" Ling Cao's subordinates echoed.

"Otherwise, how can you call it a Jinfan thief, but he said that the soldiers in Lord Wen's hands are all strong in martial arts, far better than him, I don't know if it's true or not."

Ling Cao remembered the fight he had with Gan Ning at the beginning, this Gan Ning was not very old, but he was better than himself, but he underestimated him.

"Big brother, there's a corpse here!" The brother who was holding the boat said to Ling Cao.

"I'm afraid that some of the water bandits did a good thing!" Ling Caodao.

"There's more!"

The subordinates carried lanterns, shining on the water, and a corpse passed in front of Ling Cao's boat along the river, I am afraid that there are no less than hundred, among which there is a corpse that has been cut off, Rao is Ling Cao is a little big, these people are not dressed like soldiers, then it is likely to be a guard hired by a merchant, and more than a hundred people died, which is already a tragedy.

"Where are the water bandits, so vicious, I'm afraid they will be wiped out." Ling Cao estimated and said, 100 guards are almost the limit of an ordinary merchant ship.

"Big brother, there's another doll here!"

Ling Cao carried the lantern and took a photo, and there was really a boy's corpse, and he was sorry for him, when he suddenly saw the boy move.

"Quick, pull this doll up, there's still gas."

The men pulled the boy aboard the boat and made him lie on his side so that the water in his stomach could be spit out, and one of his men took out a black token from the boy with a word written on it.

"The clothes worn by this doll are good fabrics, and the workmanship of the token in the arms is also extraordinary, I'm afraid that there are some origins, can there be a scholar or a big family with the surname Wen nearby?".

Everyone shook their heads, but saw that the rescued boy spit out the river water and coughed violently, Ling Cao came to the boy with the token, squatted down, and asked, "Little baby, where is your home?" ”

Lu Su spit out the river water in his mouth, grabbed the token in Ling Cao's hand, and said, "Please, send me to the ancient city to find Wen Qi, Wen Taishou!" ”
