Chapter 368: Methods of Controlling Poisonous Insects
A swarm of poisonous bees vibrated with their wings and made a buzzing sound, and were flying in the direction of the camp.
Since the poisonous insects crawling on the ground could not get close to the camp, the Yue people directly attacked the camp with flying from the sky, which was unexpected by all of them, but it was expected by Bai Zhong.
"Hurry up and light the fire and throw the horse manure in."
Bai Zhong shouted.
The soldiers hurriedly lit the fire and threw horse manure into it as ordered.
But before the effect of the fire could be exerted, those poisonous bees had already flown over, and Bai Zhong immediately grabbed a tent, pulled it hard, waved the cloth of the tent, and slapped at those poisonous bees.
The first batch of poisonous bees that attacked were immediately shot down by Bai Zhong, but there were also fish that slipped through the net, flew into the army, stung the soldiers, and the stung soldiers fell down on the spot, and their bodies were hot and they died instantly.
This poison is very powerful.
"Be careful!"
Seeing this, Ying Shu learned from Bai Zhong's practice and waved the tent.
Other capable people were like this, and they struggled to resist the poisonous bees for a while.
Then, black smoke rose from the barracks, and a foul smell dispersed from the black smoke, which was very pungent, and the effect of the fire and horse manure came into play.
Thick smoke billowed and rushed towards the poisonous bees flying over, and they were immediately smoked down a lot.
"It worked!"
Bai Zhong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Keep these black smoke until there are no poisonous bees." ”
Seeing that the black smoke of horse manure was useful, the officers and soldiers in the army all spit out turbidity, or Wu Anjun was thoughtful, and even thought of such a practice, although the smoke was very pungent, but in order to survive, none of them complained.
The poisonous bees that flew over were quickly smoked down in large pieces.
The soldiers stomped on the fallen poisonous bees one by one.
There were more than 50 soldiers who were stung just now, and now they all cut off their breath and died, which shows how powerful the poisonous bees are.
However, in the army, when fighting, it is normal for dead people to be killed, and everyone doesn't feel anything, so take the corpse away and dispose of it as soon as possible.
They waited for a while, and all the buzzing sounds in the sky disappeared.
Poisonous bees are either smoked down or driven away by black smoke.
The changes in the Qin army's camp made the people who controlled the poisonous bees outside widen their eyes in surprise, completely unexpected, Bai Zhong still had the ability to resist the poisonous bees, and did not dare to attack rashly.
"Remove the black smoke first."
Bai Zhong covered his nose, looked at the poisonous insects that were lingering outside, and frowned again.
If the poisonous insects don't leave for a day, they won't be able to go outside, and the construction of the Ling Canal can only be shelved, and they don't know what the situation is on Zhang Tang's side, Bai Zhong is a little worried that Zhang Tang won't be able to hold it, and when the river embankment is dug up, the water will pour into the half-finished Ling Canal, which will wash them away.
"Giant, I have a solution."
Yuan Hong said suddenly: "As long as the person who controls the poisonous insects is dead, and the poisonous insects outside are scattered, I brought a few trap kites over, maybe I can kill those people." ”
Bai Zhong's eyes lit up, and he almost forgot about the kite, and said, "You can try it." ”
Yuan Hong took out a few trap kites, and he didn't know what he did, and with a hard flick, the trap kites magically flew up and flew towards the person who controlled the poisonous insects.
"The Mo family's trick is really powerful!"
Shi Lu's eyes widened in surprise.
Not only the people of their Shaofu, but the others all widened their eyes when they saw this, these are beyond the scope of their own cognition, and the Mo family's ability is too strong!
After the kite flew out, it quickly came to the vicinity of the people.
They saw that the Qin army also had something that could fly, and they were stunned for a while, and then one of them raised his spear to knock down a trap kite.
Sou......
As soon as the kite was attacked, the poisonous needle hidden inside immediately splattered out and shot down on the person, and he fell down on the spot and couldn't get up.
Yuan Hong saw that it had an effect, and let a few trap kites out.
Seeing this, the rest of the people were a little jealous of the kite and turned around to leave, but the kite suddenly sped up and crashed into a person.
The man exclaimed, trying to dodge the trap kite, but it was too late, and the poisonous needle sprayed on his body, and he also fell to the ground.
Several others were quickly dealt with by the trap kite.
The poisonous insects outside couldn't feel controlled, and after wandering for a while, they dispersed one after another, and soon all disappeared.
"It's finally all right!"
Wang Li wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Bai Zhong said: "You stay in the barracks and don't move, I'll take a look outside." ”
"I'll go too!"
Naturally, Yingshu will follow.
They brought more than a dozen people to the corpses of those Yue people.
These people didn't look special, they were ordinary, ordinary, and unremarkable, Bai Zhong found all kinds of bottles and jars on them, and there were some potions, powders and other things in them.
"Beware of poison."
Bai Zhong saw that Yingshu was about to pour out a little, so he hurriedly reminded him.
Although they have the secret of longevity and are not afraid of poisoning, they are worried about what accidents will happen, so they should be cautious, but those bottles and cans, they all put them away, maybe they will be useful in the future.
"How did they do it, control so many poisonous insects?"
Ying Shu flipped through the clothes of those corpses for a while, and said, "Just now I seemed to hear a whistle, or a flute, and then the poisonous insects came." ”
She found a bamboo flute, held it in her hand and studied it for a while, but she didn't know what it was for.
"Don't try it out."
Bai Zhong asked people to put away the bamboo flute, and if there was a next time, maybe he could try to fight back.
Apart from these, they couldn't find anything of value, they just put away what they got and go back to the barracks.
"Wu Anjun, do you want to continue digging?"
Shi Lu asked.
Bai Zhong looked up at the sky and said, "It's not too early, let them rest first, let's talk about it tomorrow, Gengwu, you arrange a group of sharp warriors, look in the direction where those people came, see if there is anything found, if you encounter poisonous insects, or if there is danger, come back immediately." ”
"Yui!"
Geng Wu immediately went to make arrangements.
Soon it was evening.
Geng Wu and the others came back, and they didn't find anything, so Bai Zhong could only put this matter aside.
The crisis of poisonous insects has not yet passed.
But the fire on the periphery of the barracks. Medicine, continue to keep, and then let people dig the spiritual canal.
Soon, the problem arose again.
The spiritual canal needs to be excavated continuously, and the barracks need to move as the excavation progresses, sprinkling fire on the perimeter of the camp. Even if the medicine can be recovered, there will be losses, and if the next poisonous insect attack again, fire. Medicine and sulfur are not enough, and they are directly in danger.
"We have to find a way to solve the crisis of poisonous insects."
Bai Zhong was muttering in his heart, what else could he do next, what could he do?
Before he could think about what he could do, he got news from Zhang Tang that the embankment was safe and there were no accidents.
"Fortunately, the enemy did not attack the river embankment with poisonous insects."
After reading the news, Bai Zhong muttered in his heart: "Why don't I take the initiative to find the source of controlling poisonous insects and solve the problem from the root?" ”
