Chapter 291: Ambush
The spies also quickly spread the news that Zhou Zheng was preparing to come to Mo Yanzhao's ears.
However, Mo Yanzhao was already prepared, and when he heard that there were a million of his soldiers, Mo Yanzhao's eyes only moved slightly.
It's just that the guards on the side are a little uneasy.
"One million, Zhou Zheng is really crazy, bringing so many soldiers here, Zhou Zheng must be planning to take us down in one fell swoop, he is gambling on his final chances of winning!"
Mo Yanzhao pulled the corners of his mouth and showed a sneer, Zhou Zheng is a natural gambler.
However, Zhou Zheng had gambled a lot before, and he had already won the bet, so Zhou was able to become a big country like now.
But Mo Yanzhao didn't take him seriously at all.
"A million so what? I want Zhou Zheng to come here with this million, and he will never go back! ”
Hearing Mo Yanzhao say such cruel words, the guards couldn't help but tremble when they heard it.
And they were already waiting for these soldiers nearby.
Wang Yi and Song Zi'an were wearing armor and guarding near the capital.
If they wanted to come here and attack the Imperial City, they would definitely pass through this one state.
Then they are to block them in this way, so that they can no longer approach the Imperial City.
Song Zi'an glanced at it, everything around was quiet, and the people around him had already been evacuated by them.
Although they did not have as many soldiers as they did, they had already made many heavy weapons.
There are a lot of rocks around, too. Taking advantage of this free time, they prepared these boulders and waited to meet them and deal them a fatal blow.
However, the people of the Zhou Kingdom had never been to this place before, and they were not familiar with the terrain here.
They looked around, and Song Zi'an suddenly saw a small river around them, flowing slowly forward.
Looking at this small river, Song Zi'an suddenly thought of something.
If they had made the long journey here, they would have been in need of water.
"If we can add something to this water, will we be able to deplete some of their forces?"
Hearing Song Zi'an say this, Wang Yi was stunned, and then couldn't help laughing.
"I didn't expect you to be very smart. Of course, we could have added something to the water, but they didn't know how many people would use it, and it wouldn't be good if it hurt the innocent. ”
However, Song Zi'an quickly thought of a countermeasure, and he immediately sent a few soldiers along this small river to the nearby village.
The villagers were warned not to use the river's water for a few days.
However, the surrounding villagers have already fled the place, and they are naturally afraid that this war will hurt innocent people.
Then, Song Zi'an specially made a few packets of poison and poured it directly into the small river.
With the addition of these deadly poisons, this clear river was still very clear, and there was nothing unusual to see.
After a few minutes of rushing, the soldiers of the Zhou State came to a state very smoothly.
As long as you pass through this state, you can enter the capital.
Seeing that the imperial city was not far away, everyone's faces were full of joy, and the general shouted loudly in front.
"Everyone, cheer me up, as long as we pass through these mountains, we can go to the capital and take down Mo Yanzhao for me in one fell swoop, and I will definitely have a reward for taking down Mo Yanzhao's head."
Hearing that there was a reward of 10,000 gold, everyone was naturally red-eyed, and they couldn't wait to take off Mo Yanzhao's head.
However, they had been running around for a day with these weapons, and they were already very tired.
Seeing a small river nearby, several soldiers bent down to take a sip of the river's water.
Seeing this, the other soldiers already felt their mouths dry, and they also followed their example and bent down to drink water.
However, the general was very vigilant, and when he saw that these soldiers were bent over the river, he immediately stopped them.
"What are you doing, aren't you afraid that there will be something wrong with this river?"
Hearing the general say this, they were frightened, and they got up from the ground one after another, looking at the general in a panic.
The general's eyes narrowed dangerously, how could they not know that they were approaching this place, but they were afraid that they would be ambushed nearby.
Besides, they should be very familiar with this river, and they must be doing something on this river.
Sure enough, just a quarter of an hour later, the soldiers covered their necks and wanted to scream.
But he couldn't say a word, so he could only struggle on the ground in pain.
When the other soldiers saw this, they all hid aside in fear.
Seeing this, the general immediately shouted at the crowd of soldiers, "Doctor, quickly call the doctor to me and help see what is wrong with them!" ”
Several doctors rushed over. Then he crouched down to take the pulse of the soldiers.
But the poison onset very quickly, and by the time the doctors had finished taking the pulse, they were already dying, and the doctors shook their heads helplessly.
"They are poisoned, and this is a loose escape, and everyone is naturally aware of the toxicity."
Hearing that the river water was poisonous, everyone couldn't help but cover their mouths and was very surprised.
The general was furious and yelled at the soldiers.
"Did you see that? If you don't listen to me, this will be your final fate, and you will gather all of them, and there will be no casualties. ”
When they arrived here, it was getting dark, and they planned to rest here first, and on the second day, they directly attacked this state, close to the imperial city.
Hearing the nearby noise, everyone couldn't help but hold their breath, knowing that it was those soldiers of the Zhou State who came.
They were on the hill, looking at them from high.
Seeing this, several adjutant generals were very excited, and said to Wang Yi, "General Wang, why don't we push these stones down now and smash them all to death!" ”
Hearing them say this, Wang Yi shook his head, still so calm.
"Don't worry, when they go back to the barracks and fall asleep, they won't react."
Hearing what Wang Yi thought in his heart, the deputy general also felt very reasonable, and waited patiently for the opportunity on the side.
In the dead of night, the general couldn't sleep, but looked at the surrounding mountains in the center, and some couldn't put his mind at ease.
I haven't seen Mo Yanzhao's soldiers yet, where are they hiding?
They don't have anywhere else but this mountain, and maybe they're waiting for them there.
