Chapter 170: Poison War
Compared to Kowloon City, Suwon City is more like a fortress.
The tall bluestone city wall looks very strong and difficult to break.
Suwon City has only two gates in the north and south, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Zheng Guangyi hides inside, feeling very down-to-earth.
The changes in the DPRK have not yet reached this point, so he is waiting for reinforcements sent by Yan Song.
As long as the reinforcements arrive, relying on the advantage of a large number of people again, they will definitely be able to achieve victory and continue to ask Li for credit.
An army of 100,000 approached the north gate of Suwon City, and the soldiers defending the city cheered and cheered when they saw it.
The arrival of reinforcements meant that they would never have to fight alone again.
The guard wanted to open the door, but after thinking about it, he still reported Zheng Guangyi first.
When Zheng Guangyi came to the city tower, Wei Xiaobao and the others had already arrived at the city tower.
The moat flowed slowly, reflecting the solemn faces of the soldiers on the city wall.
Zheng Guangyi held a wide knife in his hand and asked loudly, "Who is coming?" ”
Shout.
Wang Zhi shot an arrow violently, and the arrow was like light, almost grazing Zheng Guangyi's ears and flying past.
Zheng Guangyi was shocked into a cold sweat, looked at the past, recognized Wang Zhi at a glance, and couldn't help laughing: "Who is my Dao, it turned out to be the prisoner who lost Kowloon City." ”
But he wondered in his heart, Wang Zhi and Liu Jin had obviously been escorted to Chang'an, and at this moment they were actually wearing battle armor and bringing troops to help?
What did Elder Yan Ge think?
Wang Zhi wanted to reply, but was stopped by Wei Xiaobao reaching out.
Wei Xiaobao glanced at Ling Huchan and said in a deep voice: "Yan Ge sent me and others to come to the aid of Suwon City, and asked General Zheng to open the city gate quickly." ”
"You have traveled a long way, worked hard all the way, and please camp on the spot outside the city, Suwon City is small, and it really can't accommodate so many people." Zheng Guangyi smiled gloomily.
If the general leading the troops was someone else, he would definitely open the door to greet him, but because it was Wang Zhi and Liu Jin, then forget it.
Let them be stationed outside the city, and when the Nanming army attacks, they will go directly around the city to meet the enemy.
Wang Zhi and Liu Jin were both clutching their bows and arrows, and they couldn't wait for an arrow to shoot into Zheng Guangyi's mouth.
Zheng Guangyi relies on Yan Song's support, and he is used to being powerful and blessed on weekdays, and he has always been in his eyes and never puts anyone in his eyes.
At this moment, Ling Huchan suddenly rose from the ground, twisted her delicate body, and quickly swept towards the city tower.
"Shoot the arrows." Zheng Guangyi was shocked.
As soon as the feather arrow came out, Ling Huchan was already in front of Zheng Guangyi, and the long sword he pulled out brought out a dazzling cold glow.
Zheng Guangyi's head flew out diagonally and fell straight down the tower.
Ling Huchan turned around and kicked his body off the tower.
"The Overseer arrives and still doesn't open the door?" Ling Huchan returned the sword into the sheath and scolded coldly.
The adjutant general was shocked, and then looked at the battle of the army outside the city, and hurriedly ordered the door to be opened.
The drawbridge was lowered, the city gates were wide open, and the 100,000 troops quickly entered the city.
Zheng Guangyi's body was almost trampled to a pulp.
After taking over Suwon City, Wei Xiaobao sent many spies to spy on the enemy's situation.
Nanming's camp was built by the river just for the convenience of getting water, after all, elephants need a lot of water, and camping by the river can be described as saving time and effort.
But they have no plans to continue north.
"Overseer, since the enemy army wants to recuperate, we can't give them a chance to breathe, and the Admiral proposes a night attack tonight." Lian Xiangru has seen the celestial phenomena and feels that tonight's night is like ink, which is the most suitable for night attacks.
Wang Zhi and Liu Jin also thought that the night attack was good, and they could attack it unprepared, and win by surprise.
Wei Xiaobao looked at them with a smile and said, "It's like you don't know about elephants, you two have fought with elephants, don't you know that it's even more dangerous at night?" ”
Wang Zhi and Liu Jin looked at each other speechlessly.
Lian Xiangru also sighed, as the so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, one hundred battles will not be defeated, even if the weather is suitable for night attacks, but because there are monsters in the enemy array, it has to be a different matter.
"Since the monster can't do without water, I think we should start with the water." What Ling Huchan said was exactly what Wei Xiaobao thought.
Wei Xiaobao approvingly: "If you poison the upstream, you can defeat the opponent without much effort." ”
It's a great plan, but it's very difficult to poison the river.
Moreover, the people who rely on this river to live are countless, and the slightest deviation will have unpredictable consequences.
But Lian Xiangru and other generals did not mention it, because in their opinion, Wei Xiaobao might not care about the lives of the people along the river in order to win the war.
Ling Huchan was also thinking about this problem.
Wei Xiaobao said with a smile: "Poison in the upstream and put the antidote in the downstream." ”
Everyone was very confused, and they couldn't imagine that it could be like this.
"Even if the people downstream will feel unwell, they can send someone to send the antidote in time." Ling Huchan added with a smile.
The matter of poison is naturally ordered to be done by Huchan.
Mingjiao disciples are all over the world, and many of them are masters of using poison.
Ling Huchan sent out the order, and in less than two days, he found the best poison.
The army of the Southern Ming Dynasty still stood still, and its behavior was strange.
After the capture of Kowloon City, the marching speed of the Nanming army became very slow.
After Zheng Guangyi took over the Great Wei army, he launched several attacks and recaptured Kowloon City for a time, but as Nanming's counterattack began, Kowloon City was lost again.
The river is not turbulent and looks gentle.
A large amount of poison was thrown into the river.
Half an hour later, far downstream, the antidote was also put in.
It will soon be clear how effective this plan will be.
The spies have been keeping a close eye on the Nanming military camp, and the time has passed slowly, and there has been no movement in the camp.
"Did it fail?" Liu Jin was a little breathless.
Lian Xiangru smiled and said: "Be patient, we are fighting, and fighting a war is the most jealous and impetuous, greedy and reckless." ”
Of course, Liu Jin knows, but when it comes to specific things, it is really difficult to be as calm as water.
Half an hour after the poison was dropped, it was lunchtime.
Success or failure depends on the afternoon.
No matter what the hell the Nanming army is, as a human being, they must eat, and water must be used for cooking.
Ling Huchan was very confident in the poison prepared by the disciples of the Ming Sect.
Originally, I only wanted to get some laxatives, but the lethality of laxatives was very limited, and I ended up replacing them with real poisonous poisons.
We must not be merciful to our enemies, otherwise we will be the ones who will be unlucky in the end.
In the afternoon, there was finally good news.
The soldiers guarding the surrounding area of the barracks fainted one after another and were carried away by other soldiers.
The Nanming military camp was soon in chaos.
Wei Xiaobao stood on a high place, looked at the Nanming military camp, and said after a while: "The time has come, let's attack." ”
Lian Xiangru, Wang Zhi and Liu Jin and other generals led a team of men and horses to quickly kill the Nanming military camp.
The sound of killing was like thunder, and even on the top of the mountain here, it made people's ears hurt.
Ling Huchan was by Wei Xiaobao's side, her expression was quite solemn.
If the poison had not worked so much, it would have been difficult to say the outcome of this battle.
But the news of the victory was not long in coming.
A soldier rushed over, knelt on the ground and said, "Lord Qiqi, our army defeated the Nanming thieves, but the thief fled south. ”
Wei Xiaobao smiled and asked, "Who is the thief leader?" ”
"Emperor Zhu Wei of the Southern Ming Dynasty." The soldier replied.
The smile on Wei Xiaobao's face was slightly sluggish.
I thought that Zhu Wei was controlled by others, and Nanming would invade Dawei again, but I never expected that the culprit was actually Zhu Wei himself.
With Juwei's death-fearing character, this guy would never do this.
"Zhu Wei's face is red, his eyes are red, and he is very scary." The soldier continued.
Red-faced and red-eyed?
Wei Xiaobao thought of the blood corpse in an instant, and thought of stepping forward one step forward, starting a light effort, and going straight to the south.
Ling Huchan wanted to keep up, but she couldn't.
The light work of crossing the sea with one leaf, looking at the rivers and lakes, is the top existence.
In an instant, Wei Xiaobao saw Zhu Wei who was fleeing south.
Juwei stands on an elephant.
The elephant galloped forward, and it was extremely fast.
On the back of the elephant, there was actually a pavilion, and hundreds of soldiers stood beside Zhu Wei.
One of Zhu Wei's faces was redder than blood.
Those soldiers, all of them, looked extremely weird.
