42. Knowledge is power
The high priest looked at the buckets of cold water on the pool of Dongshui City and actually repelled his army, only to feel a little puzzled, facing Zhuge Ke's inquiry, he didn't know how to talk about it, he was afraid of losing Yi's reputation if he said it wrong, so he had to laugh and say: "Your Highness, I have seen this kind of thing in the notes of the first high priest of the ancestors, saying that water has a great momentum, and soldiers are easy to catch it, I think this is the truth." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Zhuge Ke nodded after hearing this and said: "No wonder, high priest, look at it, our army can't get close to the city at all, and now the city is attacking intensively, and I don't know what means Dongshui used, he actually launched stones from a distance, causing us a lot of trouble to attack, what should we do now." ”
The high priest looked at the scene in front of him and said helplessly: "If we attack the city now, it seems that we can't take it, and if we continue to fight like this, we will also suffer heavy losses." No, let's retreat, and tomorrow we will use the beast herd to attack the Dongshui soldiers, and then we will cover and pursue the victory, so as not to give the other party a chance to breathe. ”
Zhuge Ke nodded: "I have to do this, retreat." At the sound of the order, the Xinglong army retreated quickly, and after a burst of footsteps and horses' hooves, only the piles of corpses of soldiers and the chaotic traces of war were left under the city.
Looking at the rapid retreat of the Xinglong army, and then looking at the corpses on the city and the corpses under the city, Chen Chen felt a lot of emotion in his heart, is he a sinner in history? With the death of so many people, he also participated in the massacre and was one of the executioners, I hope that future generations can look at themselves objectively.
"Lord Wang, the last general is very curious, why can the cold water bring down the enemy army, can we all use this magic technique in the future?" Commander Wei was still indulging in the tactics just now, and he was puzzled for a while.
Chen Chen smiled and said, "No, this method is not available at any time, only today." You see, if the sun is too strong today, then the body temperature of the human body will be very high, and if the human body is suddenly attacked by the cold in the hot and dry situation, the muscles will twitch, the legs and feet will cramp, and then the body will be unstable, and it will fall. ”
"Lord Wang, look, there is a bottle of liquid here that has not been broken." A soldier suddenly stepped forward to report and immediately interrupted Commander Wei's imminent words.
When Chen Chen heard this, he hurriedly followed him to take a closer look, an arrow was pierced on the wooden board, and a bottle was hanging on the arrow, and in the bottle was a bottle of liquid.
Chen Chen stretched out his hand and gently pinched the glass bottle, carefully used his sword to get the bottle down, and turned around and ordered: "Clean up the corpse immediately, the weather is too hot, the corpse is easy to decay, and it is especially easy to breed infectious diseases." ”
Commander Wei and Chen Cheng agreed, and quickly organized personnel to clean up the battlefield, and Chen Chen quickly returned to the palace with the bottle.
Returning to the palace and carefully hiding the bottle in the cabinet, Chen Chen began to think about how to remove the other party's beast herd array, if he was rushed like this again tomorrow, I am afraid that he would lose again, thinking about it, Chen Chen suddenly remembered a historical story.
"That's it." Chen Chen clapped his hands excitedly, although this method is a little cloudy, but it is the most effective, after all, kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself.
"Come on, go to the pharmacy immediately to buy the most toxic medicine, and at the same time let the kitchen kill dozens of live fat pigs, remember to make sure the smell of blood is enough, and then mix the poison with the fat pork, this king has an urgent use." Chen Chen immediately beckoned over, and an entourage commanded a few times.
"No." The attendant said yes and left immediately.
"Come on, go find someone and tie hundreds of scarecrows, remember, scarecrows have to be realistic, they have to be like real people." Chen Chen beckoned another entourage and gave an order.
There was nothing to say all night, and when he got up the next morning, the soldiers had already done everything, looking at the vivid scarecrow, Chen Chen felt a burst of admiration in his heart. The scarecrow's stomach was immediately emptied, and then the poisoned pork was stuffed into it and sprinkled with blood to ensure the flesh was bloody. He also ordered them to be dressed in military clothes to make them look more realistic. After doing all this and checking it carefully, Chen Chen was relieved.
Before everyone could clean up, a soldier immediately ran to report: "Qi Qi Wang, the enemy army is shouting and scolding at the city gate, let the prince go out immediately." ”
Chen Chen smiled and said: "Since they are in such a hurry to send them to death, then fulfill them, go out of the formation, and order people to prepare more things that can make sound, the louder the better, and then move them all to the city tower." ”
Everyone was stunned: "Lord Wang, what are you going to do with that?" ”
"Mountain people have their own tricks." After saying it happily, he greeted everyone, and rushed to the city gate with the army.
The city gate was wide open, the army rushed out quickly, lined up along the city gate, the drums sounded three times, the flag gate was wide open, and Chen Chen sat in a chariot and slowly came to the front of the two armies.
"Chen Chen, you saw my Tiger Legion yesterday, and surrender immediately, otherwise you will definitely step on your Dongshui today." Zhuge Kehu's eyes widened, staring at Chen Chen deadly.
"Who killed the deer today, so it's not necessarily? It's a mule or a horse, pull it out and slip away, since this king dares to come out today, there is a way to break your formation. Chen Chen shouted loudly, his words full of confidence.
Zhuge Ke sneered, clapped his hands, and as soon as the two armies gave way, the tiger quickly rushed out, jumped forward and backward, the speed was very fast, the roar was bursting, his eyes were red, and he seemed to be hungry and panicked.
Commander Wei waved his banner, the soldiers quickly retreated, and hundreds of scarecrows were left in front. The tiger ran closer, its sharp claws cut through the scarecrow, and pork with a bloody smell fell out of it, and the tiger immediately swallowed it, and dozens of scarecrows had been eaten by the tiger while talking, but the tiger was still alive.
"Why hasn't this TM fallen, is it because the poison is not enough?" Chen Chen looked back at Commander Wei and Chen Cheng, and his heart was bottomless for a while.
Before the words fell, only a few wails were heard, and then looked, several behemoths could no longer move, and they fell to the ground one after another with a few plops, and there was no movement after a convulsion.
"I'm scared to death, but fortunately, I'm dead, tiger, tiger, it's not that I, Chen Chen, is vicious, but if I don't kill you, you will have to eat me, so I can only sacrifice you, be a good tiger in the next life, don't help the abuse." Looking at the tiger that fell to the ground, Chen Chen couldn't help it, and in the blink of an eye, a few cherished animals died, if this was known by animal protection, I am afraid that a few years in prison would be indispensable.
The Xinglong army, which was rushing in with the tiger, was immediately dumbfounded when they saw this scene, Zhuge Ke and the high priest were so shocked that they couldn't keep their mouths together, they didn't expect that a few fierce beasts would be destroyed like this, and the entire army would be silent......
