Chapter 98: Snow Man
The mighty procession stretched all the way to the sky, countless people in the south led their livestock, carried young children on their backs, and there were weak old people sitting on the carts, putting the precious furniture.
The border is not peaceful again, and the people who are nostalgic for their homeland have to embark on this long migration road.
Xue Man was busy in the camp with four or five soldiers.
In front of them were more than a dozen wooden square plates, which contained several pills the size of the little fingertips of adult men, each of which looked like candy wrapped in colored paper at the festival fair.
Rows of bamboo cages were placed around the tent, and there were hundreds of birds of all colors locked in them.
Xue Man waved his hand lightly, and the two soldiers carried the bamboo cage at the head of the row.
He lifted the bamboo door and grabbed a magpie from the bamboo cage, and the movement was so swift that the pill had already entered its stomach before the magpie could react.
Xue Man lightly touched the magpie's head with his hand, and quickly got up and walked out of the tent.
The sky was high and the sky was high, and as soon as he let go of his hand, the frightened bird hurriedly spread its wings and flew into the sky.
The spring rain is as expensive as oil, and when the next spring rain comes, it is the day when the city of Xuanzhou is broken.
Xueman is a member of the Xueyun clan in Xiaxi, and this clan still lives in the form of a tribe, and is willing to submit to Xiaxi, but it is because of the talented Xiaxi Holy Maiden.
Therefore, Emperor Xiaxi is not necessarily the heaven of the Xueyun Clan, but the patriarch must be the heaven of the Xueyun Clan, and the successive Xueyun Patriarchs have the ability to control a hundred insects.
When it came to Xue Man's generation, the patriarch Xue Chan completely submitted to the silver-haired emperor, and Xue Man, who was the patriarch's younger brother, also became Shen Tan's right-hand man.
This pill Xue Man has been developing for five years, and he has tried the medicine with countless living beings, he doesn't dare to say that this medicine is foolproof, but at least there is no problem in letting Xuanzhou fall.
One after another, the birds were fed pills, and the people who had already drunk the antidote waited with peace of mind for the rain to moisten the earth.
The rain came on the second day, and it came and went slowly.
The light rain hit Qian Tianhe's forehead, and the water flowed down his cheeks, as if there was a bit of stinging.
Qian Tianhe, who had been busy for many days, was in a trance for a while, and he saw that the people who were facing the spring rain on their backs suddenly shouted.
"Poisonous rain from the sky."
"Poisonous rain from the sky."
“……”
One after another, people covered their heads and faces with their clothes and fled in all directions.
A pair of broad palms stretched out, raindrops fell, and a dull pain came from Qian Tianhe's palm, and his skin was also a little red.
Qian Tianhe, who confirmed that there was a problem with the rain, took two steps and two steps at the same time, and rushed to the rebuilt corner tower in the city as fast as possible.
The originally noisy street market was empty, but the people's various voices were noisy.
He had a premonition that a new battle was about to begin.
The assembled snare drum sounded, and in the midst of this poisonous rain, the Xuanzhou army of more than 30,000 people was assembled under the south city gate.
The soldiers had complicated armor and helmets to resist, and except for a few people who looked up at the sky and had more red spots on their faces, most of the Xuanzhou troops did not seem to have reduced much combat strength.
Outside the city of Xuzhou, Liu Xiao led more than 10,000 soldiers to wait outside the range of the archers with the ladder to the clouds.
He was waiting for the medicine to exert its true power.
"What's wrong with my face?"
"It hurts so much ~ itchy~"
After only a quarter of an hour of work after the rain, Qian Tianhe clearly felt that the dull pain in his palms disappeared, and the palms that had been beaten by the rain and the neck that had been dripping by the rain were quickly swollen.
The orderly team was in chaos, unbearable pain came, accompanied by a pinprick itch, Qian Tianhe stood on the corner tower and endured the pain and itching vigorously beating the drum, barely maintaining order.
The soldiers standing straight on the city wall began to swing from side to side, and Liu Xiao, who had good eyesight, saw the commotion on the city wall at a glance.
He glanced back at the herald, nodded slightly, and the thin man quickly pulled out the small blue and red flag at his waist and gave the order to attack.
The slogan continued to spread backwards, and the 10,000-strong contingent was subjected to passive resistance like never before.
The arrows flew out in twos and threes, the accuracy was poor, and the range was short, which was an incomparably smooth siege battle.
There were already people with different military uniforms on the city, and Qian Tianhe pulled his voice and frantically gave the order to retreat.
But the situation was out of control, and when Liu Xiao entered the city, the soldiers and civilians in the city did not flee much, but the 90,000 people in the base camp of the Xuanzhou army successfully retreated under the leadership of Ma Yangde.
Everyone was frustrated, and Zhu Er retreated silently to Mengxi County with everyone among the 30,000 recruits.
More than ninety percent of the people in Xuanzhou, as well as Qian Tianhe, who persevered to the end, all became Liu Xiao's prisoners.
In this conscription, under Shen Tan's black-box operation, hundreds of men like Zhu Er were changed their household registration and mixed into the Xuzhou Army.
This is a game of serial chess, and the planned Xuanzhou army will be completely annihilated, and this wide and fertile land will also be returned to Nanhao.
The number of prisoners was very large, and Liu Xiao did not order all the soldiers and civilians in Xuzhou to be detained, but as Qian Tianhe, this detention was inevitable.
Qian Tianhe, who was locked alone in the governor's mansion of Xuanzhou, felt the unusual poison rain for the first time.
The place where he was not directly exposed to the rain also appeared red and swollen, and the familiar and unbearable pain and itching came again.
The man who couldn't bear to scratch his hands felt that all the strength in his body was exhausted, and all of it was used to restrain his hands.
Big man, scarring is a trivial matter, he is just afraid that scratching the skin will only further stimulate the effect of this poison.
Artificial Poison Rain...... When did this Nan Wei have such a great ability?
Qian Tianhe, who had a painful feeling in the past, reluctantly leaned against the wall, thinking about the source of this poisonous rain.
Few of the remaining 20,000 soldiers could endure the pain and itching all over their bodies, and their skin became more and more red and swollen.
What's more, the skin all over their bodies was scratched, and they were covered in blood, and the pain and itching showed no sign of stopping.
The city was full of wailing, but Liu Xiao sat on the chair and read the book leisurely.
This is the best city he has ever seen, just guard the city gate and seize the weapons of the soldiers in the city, anyway, the soldiers and civilians who are tortured by the pain do not have the strength to attack anyone.
Liu Xiao, who was re-supported by Mr. Zuo Fu, used the last hole card of the little emperor, 10,000 smuggled private soldiers.
With the help of Shen Tan, this time, they won the bet.
This is the political achievement that really belongs to the little emperor, and Mr. Zuo Fu led the ministers in the court to force the Empress Dowager Yang to release power again.
After stringing the beaded curtain, Empress Dowager Yang tapped on the seat, she looked down at the kneeling crowd unslowly, the little emperor with his own army has a pair of wings of his own, and he will not let him fly again, and this infamous name will be placed on his head for the ages.
