Chapter 947: Rice is Poisonous
"It seems that Xiang Yu believes in the 'fact' that we have dropped these grains and grass in order to save our lives, okay, let them happily carry the grain and grass here, we will also go back to restore our lives, if they find out that we are still secretly observing them behind our backs, it will be difficult to do it." Li Yi confirmed that Xiang Yu had been fooled and said to Li Da beside him.
Li Da smiled slightly, "Hehe, I didn't expect the dignified Western Chu Overlord to be so stupid, doesn't he know that he doesn't have to eat things given by strangers casually?" What if someone does something to it? If I were to try it first, I would have tried to see if the food had been tampered with, and if there was no problem, I would dare to eat it. ”
"You stupid, do you think there's something wrong with your food? The poison in this food was specially prepared by the drug production team, and it was a chronic poison that required a certain dose to kill people. Li Yi reminded.
"Yes, how did I forget this, then there is no problem, or the chairman is prescient, the formation of this drug-making team has found a talent like Xiaosheng, this chronic poison is really a great achievement." Li Da said.
"That's why I said you still need to read more books, have you ever thought carefully about why the chairman deliberately made this drama of letting the soldiers cut off the grain and grass, when we can defeat them on the battlefield. Although it can't be said to be easy, in all fairness, do you think Xiang Yu has any chance of winning this battle? Even if they had, how long would they be able to hold out without a city or supplies now? We didn't have to use all the artillery and guns that the chairman had brought this time to win, so I hate to wonder why the chairman would do so much. Li Yibai was puzzled.
"I know more about this big brother than you, you think, how much Xiaoyu has suffered in this feather hand before, how much has the chairman suffered in his hands, and we have suffered no less in his hands. Chairman, this is called a tooth for a tooth, that is, to let him suffer well. Don't think that the chairman is really kind, that's for us, he is much more ruthless to the enemy than we are. ”
"Okay, now we can only reason according to what you said, let's go, Xiang Yu and they are going down the mountain after packing up, don't we haven't gone down the mountain yet, they walked in front of us." Li Yi said.
Here, the Li brothers took their brothers to lose a large number of grains, grass, wood, cattle and horses, and happily went back to recover their lives, and Xiang Yu also happily counted the harvest this time.
"Back to King Xiang, this time we have seized a total of 200,000 stones of horse feed and rice, and 1,000 wooden oxen and horses." A soldier excitedly reported to Xiang Yu after counting.
Xiang Yu nodded with satisfaction, although these grains and grasses were not a lot for the daily consumption of his 200,000 army, but it was enough to resist a war with the People's Liberation Army. After they finished fighting with the PLA, there would be endless food. It just so happens that they have been tired of eating the compressed steamed buns recently, and eating fragrant rice can be regarded as a change of tricks.
However, I have to say that Xiang Yu still took into account the most basic security measures under such a rough thinking now, and he also thought of what if this was a trap? Maybe this grain and grass has already been manipulated by them, and they deliberately sent it to them just to kill their soldiers.
So after Xiang Yu went back, he didn't rush to let the soldiers switch to these grains as rations, but first went to the pot to make a big bowl of rice and grabbed a passing citizen to eat for him.
"Can you do us a small favor?" Xiang Yu grabbed the old man with a smile and asked.
"This military uncle, if you have anything to do, just tell Xiaomin, why do you bring so many people to arrest me?" The captured people said in horror.
"Our overlord takes pity on you ordinary people to give you food, why are you still not happy? Come, eat! A leader of Xiang Yu's newly promoted subordinate soldiers said fiercely to the old man.
"But under the leadership of Chairman Supreme Treasure, we have already lived a life of abundant food and clothing, and my family also has food and food, so let's leave these to a few military masters to eat by themselves! The old man just wants to go up the mountain to chop some wood, I don't know if I can let me go home if I offend a few people, and I won't come here to disturb the military masters again. The old man pleaded.
Xiang Yu was angry when he heard this old man say that the People's Liberation Army was good, this old man was also unlucky, originally he was a person from Wu Yue, but Xiang Yu and they are now stationed near the border north of Wu Yue, this old man unconsciously climbed an extra mountain and climbed to the place where Xiang Yu and their camp were stationed and was caught by their people, suspecting that he was a spy sent by the People's Liberation Army, and wanted to wait for Xiang Yu to torture him. As a result, Xiang Yu came back at this time and wanted to find someone to test whether the grain was poisonous, if there was no old man, it was estimated that he would have to sacrifice a few soldiers to try the poison, since there was a big head sent to the door, how could he not make good use of it. Under the pretext of giving him food, he asked him to help test the poison, but he didn't expect to hear such an answer.
"I'll tell you the truth, if you don't happen to come to my territory, then I can't let you pat your ass and walk directly from my territory. My bowl of rice here may or may not be poisonous, I am now looking for someone to help me test for poison, since you are so sincere to climb over the mountain to 'take refuge' in us, then it is convenient to help us test whether this rice is poisonous or not! Xiang Yu said.
Originally, the old man was just not hungry, and he also had rice to eat at home, but now when he heard Xiang Yu say this, he didn't dare to eat rice that might be poisonous. He turned around and tried to run away, but there were soldiers all around, and where could he flee to?
"You open your mouth for me, less nonsense!" The soldier forcibly grabbed the old man, opened his mouth, stuffed a mouthful of food into the old man's mouth, and before he could chew, pinched his nose, covered his mouth, and forcibly swallowed him into his stomach.
choked the old man's tears, and finally fainted directly to the ground.
"King Xiang, it's not good, this rice is poisonous."
"Don't worry, he was just pinched by you for the time being, and I'll see if there are any signs of poisoning later, and lock him up first."
After waiting for an hour, I only heard the old man crying and shouting for Xiang Yu to let him out, and Xiang Yu heard that the old man could still speak, proving that these grains were edible and not poisonous. In this case, he simply did not do anything and let the soldiers forcibly feed the old man and ate the horse feed that was not eaten by people, although the old man vomited several times, but nothing happened after eating. Xiang Yu was relieved that this batch of grain was not poisonous at this time, this was really a great gift from the People's Liberation Army to them for nothing.
