Chapter 418, Poisoning in Water
…………
Wei County. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Chen Qi attacked for a few days, the momentum has been much smaller, first, the city Hu Che'er defenders suffered heavy casualties, morale almost collapsed, continue to fight, the city is just around the corner, but Xu Shu just does not want to easily seize Wei County, this is the capital of Jizhou, (before Yecheng, Yecheng since it was burned down, almost in ruins.) Second, as long as Wei County has not yet fallen, Zhang Xiu will definitely come to the rescue.
Xu Shu wanted to use Wei Jun as bait to lure Zhang Xiu to take the bait, and the 80,000 soldiers who attacked the city were also sent out by him one after another, some set up ambushes in various dangerous passes, and some went around robbing the rich scholars and wealthy families nearby, first, to replenish the grain and grass for the generals at any time, and secondly, to make Zhang Xiu more distracted.
Anyway, Chen Qi has already offended the Shi clan in the world, and now he no longer expects to be able to make the Shi clan sincerely submit to him, the more this is the case, the more miraculous it will be, because the Shi clan may still be lucky before, but now, as long as he sees Chen Qi's generals, it is like being targeted by death, in addition to fear, it is a deep despair.
As long as Chen Jiao's soldiers make a move, there is no one in the vicinity who does not applaud them, because most of the money and food that Chen Qi has stolen will be distributed to the people nearby, even if the scholars are offended, the people will not have the slightest dissatisfaction with Chen Jiao.
The will of the people, Chen Qi attaches great importance to it, and what he does is in line with the will of the people at all times.
Tens of thousands of righteous troops, looting everywhere, Wei County, Yecheng, Liyang, the nearby warriors are strong, just like the end of the world, there is no power to resist, the blood of the killed is like a river, countless dead and wounded, Zhang Xiu led the troops before they arrived in Wei County, they got the news, saying that Chen Qi was slaughtering the scholars nearby, Zhang Xiu hurriedly led the troops to rush over, but Zhang Xiu's whereabouts could not be concealed from the scouts of the Youzhou soldiers, and before he could kill Chen Qi, he was ambushed by Yan Rou halfway.
The first battle lost 3,000 soldiers, although Yan Rou was killed, but Zhang Xiu was also very heartbroken, after seeing Chen Chip, Chen Cut did not love war, fought for a while, and led the troops to withdraw, Zhang Xiu had to continue to lead the troops to Wei County, however, Chen Cut and Yan Rou, who originally retreated, were haunted from time to time, and suddenly killed from time to time, fighting for a while, faster than a rabbit.
Zhang Xiu originally brought less than 30,000 soldiers, and when he arrived in Wei County, he had already lost 10,000 people.
"Hey..."
Jia Xu sighed again and again, according to his meaning, there was no need for Wei County to rescue at all, but he would be ambushed by Chen Qi, sure enough, on this road, the ambush soldiers came out in all directions, and there were many dangers, one came and went, and more than 10,000 people were lost in vain, this is not counting, the defenders in Wei County's city have little left, even if the city is taken back, what use can it be.
Seeing Zhang Xiu coming, Xu Shu waved his hand, stopped the siege, and deliberately gave way to the east gate, Hu Che'er didn't know the fraud, just led the troops out of the city, unexpectedly, on the originally flat and wide ground, suddenly there were a lot of pits, whether it was a person, or a war horse, once it fell inside, in an instant, it was pierced into a hedgehog.
I don't know when it was hidden, it was full of thorns and blades, this is not the end, Xu Shu gave an order, Youzhou came back again, Zhang Xiu rushed to the death, and finally rescued Hu Che'er and other 3,000 people, just about to enter the city, but was stopped by Jia Xu.
"Lord, no, once the process is processed, Chen Qi is surrounded on all sides, and we will not be able to fly."
"Well, it's okay, withdraw the troops." Zhang Xiu sighed helplessly, and had to lead the troops out indignantly.
When Guo Jia led the troops to arrive, Zhang Xiu's side, there were only 20,000 remnants left, the situation was not optimistic, everyone was anxious, frightened and panicked, like a chicken with a feather, no fighting spirit, except Jia Xu, still with a calm face.
"Wenhe, what do you think?" Guo Jia walked up to Jia Xu and asked humbly.
"To capture Wei County, Chen Qi must lead the troops to defend it, and he will definitely expect that we will lead the troops to retake Wei County, so that we will continue to send troops as he wishes, deliberately confusing him, as for the strategy of turning things around? You can poison the nearby water, hehe, Chen cut tens of thousands of troops, people eat horses and feed, how can you get out of the water, when the time comes, there will be heavy casualties, and you will collapse without a fight. ”
As soon as Jia Xu's words fell, Guo Jia and Zhang Xiu both gasped, and the two looked at Jia Xu in a daze, thinking that they had heard it wrong, confirming that Jia Xu was not joking, and the hearts of the two of them were full of coldness.
Jia Xu's expression was calm, as if he was saying something inconsequential, seeing Guo Jia's eyes widen in surprise, Jia Xu couldn't help but smile.
"Fengxiao, you have to understand, Chen Qi is now strong and strong, with our manpower, if you want to fight hard, you will never be cheap, in extraordinary times, you should do extraordinary things, look forward and look backwards, but you will miss the opportunity in vain."
Guo Jia thought about it, he didn't approve of it, he didn't stop it, the plan was made by Jia Xu, and it had nothing to do with him, anyway, Guo Jia resisted such a poisonous plan that was almost dehumanizing.
was seized by Chen Jiao Wei County, and so many generals were broken, Zhang Xiu was annoyed, and naturally he was unwilling to give up Jizhou to Chen Jiao, thinking about it, there was no better way, so he had to follow the plan.
Jia Xu is known as a poisoner, he is ruthless, he never cares about the result, and he doesn't care about how many innocent casualties will be caused.
In this way, within a few days, Chen Jiao's side was in a situation, many soldiers, one after another, one after another, just dizzy, weak limbs, but the disease became more and more serious, and even many people died in the camp for no reason.
Although Zhao Yun and Kebineng were both waiting for an opportunity to ambush outside the city, but in the entire Wei County, Chen Qi had 40,000 righteous troops, and the water was poisoned, not only the casualties increased day by day, but the combat power was also greatly reduced.
After two days of diagnosis and treatment, the medical team confirmed the specific symptoms, and the nearby moat leading to the city was poisoned, not only killing and wounding many soldiers, but also the people in the city were in a crisis.
As for why there is a medical team in Chen Qi's army? As I said before, Chen Cut is in Youzhou, recruiting talents, but he has a skill, Chen Cut is not refused, and he recruited a lot of Lang Zhong who practiced medicine, Chen Cut organized these people together, set up a medical team, and even medical staff with the army.
In a war, casualties are inevitable, and the role of the medical team is naturally very crucial, but Chen Qi never dreamed that someone would be so vicious and could use such a vicious trick.
Chen Qi immediately ordered that no one should be allowed to use the water in the moat, even the people in the city, not only the people in the city, but in less than ten days, no less than thousands of people were killed and injured by the disease, and even the war horses died a lot, but Chen Qi was so angry that he was so vicious that he didn't take human life seriously.
After removing the dead and wounded, there were more than 30,000 people left, and many of them were also infected, but the disease was not too serious, but this matter, like a plague, instantly spread throughout the three armies, up to the generals, down to the soldiers, and the army's morale was depressed, and it was simply panicked.
The morale of the rebels can be imagined, as if they were infected with the plague, and everyone was terrified. (To be continued.) )
