Chapter Ninety-Four: Poisoning in the Well

"Then we must also ensure the basic rations of the soldiers. "I've been a soldier, and I know what it's like for a soldier to starve.

At that time, we were only on combat readiness duty, but as a result, the quartermaster department of the group army forgot to allocate emergency rations, and for two days we really relied on digging wild vegetables to get by. Think about how much food a bunch of lads in their early twenties or even less than twenty years old would have.

"All the granaries are empty. In fact, the common people had no food to eat, so they gave the last bit of food left to the soldiers. ”

"Can you go out and grab it?" or ask for help from the south...... "I have more confidence in that." I had just come in from outside the city, so I knew better than anyone else what was going on outside. It's much harder to get a bird out of the city than to fly in one. If there was still hope in the south, Zhu Di would not have spent so much time in Jinan City.

"Sir has just come in from outside the city, and he should know better than I am, and if there is a way, no one wants to wait and starve. Twilight said: "Yesterday, General Liluo took a thousand cavalry out to kill once, and that may be the last time those war horses fought on the battlefield......

Twilight Wen said very embarrassed, and I also know that it is not very useful for defending the city and horse fighting. What matters is the infantry and archers. There was really no food to eat, so they had to kill the war horses to eat. I dare say that the chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs in the city should have been slaughtered.

"I don't have anything to eat, how can I fight this battle?" Wuchen finished packing up his rune paper and ran back just in time to hear my conversation with Twilight, and the rice bucket is usually very taboo about not having food to eat.

"What if you don't have food, you will fight as you go. Dusk Wen had a pedantic scholar's face, and I wanted to smoke him when I saw it, let alone dustless, "Sooner or later, Jinan City will be broken, and it is better to die in battle with integrity than to be slaughtered by the nest." It is also good for future generations. ”

"If you think too much, future generations will not remember you as a person at all. ”

"Mr. Mu Wu, why did you say this? When you risked your life to sneak into the camp of the Northern Army and destroy the red-clothed cannon, it was not the integrity of swearing to die. How has it changed now? ”

I can't tell this guy clearly, and I don't bother to explain. I have never been interested in this history, I originally came to find my twin brother Mou Wen in this era, but not only did I not find it, but I also fell into a farce to renew Zhang Lele's life. I even got my lover involved.

Sometimes I wish it was just a dream, and when I woke up I was still my courier and living my 9-to-5 life. And now I have to fight desperately in this world that doesn't belong to me.

"When that war horse is gone, what else will you eat?" I just wanted to ask Twilight Wen why he came to guard Jinan City, "The good thing is that the water source in the city is not broken, if the water source is broken, how to solve it?"

"When the water source is cut off, we can use manpower to dig wells...... As for the war horses, we have as many as 2,000, enough to eat for a long time. Maybe Zhu Di had already given up Jinan and went south at that time. ”

I estimate his IQ, if I want to calculate an account for him, he can't understand, two thousand horses are enough for everyone in Jinan City to eat for a few days? I'm afraid it's not enough for a week, and now that the weather is hot, there is no freezer, and those horse meat will spoil sooner or later, and it can't be kept at all.

Unless, the war horses are only supplied to the soldiers, and the people find another way to solve the problem of food.

"Go and fetch the quartermaster, I have something to ask him. ”

Before we set out from the prefect's yamen, Tie Xuan assigned us two guards for us to send. That's when I found an opportunity. It suddenly occurred to me why only the souls of the soldiers were lost, but not the common people, and it was probably related to their diet and water.

Not long after, the quartermaster came running and looked very respectful, so I asked him, "Is the drinking water in the army separate from the drinking water of the people in the city?"

"Yes. Two miles north of this place there is a deep well, from which our soldiers draw water. ”

"Take me there. ”

On the way, I secretly asked Wuchen, if you want to make people lose their souls, can you do it with some medicine in the water. When there are no dust and ghosts, I immediately react to my intention to go to see the well. He thought for a moment and nodded affirmatively. I think he wants to give me "popular science" again, so he hurriedly took two steps to talk to Twilight, and talked about some questions about what his ancestors did.

After walking less than a kilometer, I saw a well guarded by four soldiers. There were still several battles to go, and we were stopped and prevented from approaching. With such precautions, it is not so easy for someone to poison them.

"In peace, can anyone who wants to mention this water?" I asked.

"This water is specially supplied to the soldiers defending the city, and only the fireheads of each battalion can carry water with tickets. "A soldier guarding the well saw that I was followed by two guards who were more senior than them, and he answered my question patiently.

In this way, if you want to poison the water and make the soldiers lose their souls, you can only do it by the inner ghosts.

"Are you familiar with General Gu Liu Xiangu?"

"That's our family. When the four soldiers heard me ask Gu Liuxian, they became alert, and their right hands involuntarily pressed on the hilt of their swords.

"Sure enough, it's him, and if you explain it by the guards stealing themselves, it will make sense. "I said it plainly.

"Who do you say is guarding and stealing!"

I don't have to look back, I know that it's Gu Liuxian. The sound now sounded a bit like a duck being trampled on its neck.

"Of course it's Gu Qianhu!" I wasn't polite to him.

But Wuchen, who felt that I was a little baffled, gave me a punch in the back.

"Gu Qianhu, it's been hard to defend the city these days. ”

Twilight also knew Gu Liuxian.

"Mr. Twilight is here, what's the matter?" Gu Liu ignored me first and opened up with Twilight, "This well is right in my defense area, I sent someone to guard it, but I don't dare to be sloppy." ”

It's not easy for me to shake things out in front of Twilight, and now I can't turn my face with Gu Liu first. I don't think it's the time to let the whole city of Jinan know about my old background.

But I don't want to see Gu Liuxian so at large, still showing off his might in front of me.

"Oh, I came with Mr. Mu Wu to check the drinking water in the army, and I said that it was not related to the illness of the soldiers. ”

"Sir, after all, I still think that someone Gu is guarding and stealing himself!" Gu Liuxian immediately became emotional, a bit like a grumpy resentful woman, "Okay, come on, fetch a bucket of water." ”

When the water came up, Gu Liu first snatched the water scoop from a soldier's hand, scooped a scoop of water and drank it.

"I drink the water from this well every day. How can I not see the disease?"

"We don't know if there has been poison in the water, I don't trust a person with pedophilia, how many children has General Gu killed recently?"

"What did you say!"

Gu Liuxian probably thought that I didn't expose him from the beginning because I didn't dare, so I said it so bluntly in front of Twilight and his soldiers now, and he couldn't hold it anymore.

All I want is to provoke him and see if he can show some flaws. He called, I watched it for a long time, and the meaning in my eyes was that I could not only beat you away at night, but also during the day. I don't know if he can understand it.

Of course, this fight can't be fought, because there is a twilight rumor.

"Brother Mu, have you formed a bond with that Qianhu?" Back at the residence of the prefect's yamen, Wuchen asked me, "Why are you so sure that he put the poison?"

"With your intelligence, it's hard for me to explain it to you. I didn't want to explain to him my grudge with Gu Liuxian, "By the way, do you know what to put in the water to make the soldiers who drink the water lose their souls?"

"That ......" Wuchen paused, "With your IQ, Brother Mu, I'm afraid it's hard for me to explain it to you." ”

Yes, I was actually put on the table by this kind of IQ, and I can only consider myself unlucky. He is a person who can't hold words in his heart, and sooner or later he can't hold back to tell me.

Just as we were about to get some food, Zhang Lele hurriedly ran in: "Oh no, those two children are going to die." ”
