At night, in the military camp of the Northern Hebei Army, someone noticed that something was wrong.

After eating dinner and drinking water, most of the people had weak hands and feet, and their bodies were sore, and they couldn't even hold a knife.

I invited a military doctor to take a look, and the military doctor immediately judged, "This seems to be poisoned." ”

"What poison?" Zhang Cheng was shocked.

"It's like a soft muscle." This military doctor still has some skills.

Zhang Cheng's face changed, he glanced around, most of them were lying on the ground and couldn't move, he asked, "How can you be poisoned?" ”

The military doctor didn't know either.

"Quick lookup." Zhang Cheng immediately ordered to go down.

The military doctor looked at more than a dozen people one by one, and said affirmatively: "General, it's all the same, but it's soft." ”

He also wondered how there were people in the barracks of the Northern Hebei Army and how they were quietly poisoned.

"Is this soft tendon deadly?" Zhang Cheng asked.

The military doctor shook his head, "Fatal is not fatal, but if the number of people is small, it is good to get the antidote, and you can prepare the prescription in the next, after all, this is an ordinary soft tendon powder, but if there are many people, even if there is a formula for the antidote, you can't get so many antidotes, there is an antidote, just drink a bowl, there is no antidote, I am afraid that it will take three days to pass at the earliest." ”

The implication is that don't think about killing the enemy and attacking the city.

When Zhang Cheng heard this, he looked around again, seven or eight out of ten people had fallen, and some people were falling one after another.

His face was full of anger, "Did you find out?" ”

No one answered him, and he hadn't found out yet.

He suppressed his anger and walked quickly to Zhang Yun's camp, only to see Zhang Yun lying on the bed, his face pale, and his face changed, "You have also been tricked?" ”

Zhang Yun nodded, pointing to the food on the small square table, "Second uncle, it's food." ”

Zhang Cheng remembered that he had not had time to eat because of the deployment of the team to settle the wounded, and Zhang Yun was more seriously injured than him, and he was not the coach, so he didn't need to deal with this, so he had the kung fu to eat first.

His face was extremely ugly, "I have ordered someone to investigate." ”

"I'm afraid that the soldier will be hit seven or eight times out of ten, right? Now the top priority is to order those who have not eaten to eat for the time being. Zhang Yundao.

Zhang Cheng nodded, "I'll give the order." ”

So, Zhang Cheng took out Zhang Yun's camp tent and ordered the whole army not to eat or drink for the time being.

The military doctor quickly went to the food camp, inspected the food, and checked the water that was fetched, and sure enough, the food was poisonous, and the source was water.

The military doctor reported to Zhang Chengyu, "General, it's a water problem. ”

Zhang Cheng's face changed all of a sudden, "Is that the river?" ”

"It should be." The military doctor didn't expect that someone would start poisoning from the river, such a wide and long river, the water flow under the ice under the river in winter is slow, how much poison must be thrown into it to contaminate the water source of the entire river?

"Take someone to check the river immediately." Zhang Cheng commanded.

So, I immediately went to the river not far away.

The soldier took the water from the river, and the military doctor checked it, and soon came to the conclusion, "General, it's the problem with this river." ”

Zhang Cheng's face was pale, he didn't expect that someone could be so tricky as to poison this river, how many days of planning was this? He was unaware and really tricked.

He was furious and went back to discuss with Zhang Yun, "It's the river that has a problem, and the water source of the entire river has been scattered by people to scatter the 200,000 soldiers and horses of our Northern Hebei Army, who want to eat and drink, and even the war horses in the army can't do without water." ”

Zhang Yun had seen the river, "The whole river has been poisoned, but it's really powerful." ”

Zhang Cheng nodded.

"It must be Zhou Gu." Zhang Yundao.

Zhang Cheng also thought so, but after searching the mountains for two days, he couldn't find his whereabouts, and now people came out of nowhere and poisoned the river at some point. How much should it be? How many herbs are thrown in? He couldn't even imagine it.

"Second uncle, how many of us are good now?" Zhang Yun asked.

"Less than 50,000. There are also people who are gradually having seizures. Zhang Chengdu was about to suffocate, and secretly hated himself for being careless, because the food camp was to make meals in batches, and the soldiers also had to eat in batches, so the remaining people had dinner late.

"Less than 50,000 is enough to siege the city." Zhang Yundao.

Zhang Cheng was shocked and emphasized again, "There are still people who are having seizures one after another, and now in a hurry, they can only be counted." ”

"But in Nanping City, after two sieges, it is the end of the strong crossbow." Zhang Yundao: "Second uncle, let's find out now how many people have not been poisoned." As long as you can capture Nanping City, you can ask the military doctor to dispense the antidote from the pharmacy in the city. ”

Zhang Cheng thought about it and made sense, "I'll go now." ”

Feng Ling ordered people to pay attention to the movements of the northern Hebei military camp at all times, and that night the news that the soldiers were poisoned came from the northern Hebei military camp, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief and told Su Rong to take care of it.

Su Rong and Zhou Gu also breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, what about the 200,000 Hebei Northern Army, if it weren't for the extraordinary methods used in extraordinary times, they wouldn't be able to delay them.

Zhou Gu instructed, "Probe again, see how many soldiers in the Northern Hebei Army have been poisoned, I am afraid that if the Northern Hebei Army reacts quickly, knowing that the water is poisonous, it will stop some soldiers." ”

Feng Ling nodded, he also expected this, "I have let people continue to investigate." ”

Su Rong pondered, "After all, soft tendons are ordinary poisons, as long as the military doctors in the Northern Hebei Army have some ability, they can find out, if half of the Northern Hebei Army is not hit, then Nanping City is still dangerous." ”

"Yes." Zhou Gu nodded, "Half of the people are enough to capture Nanping City." ”

"After capturing Nanping City, the pharmacy in the city can get a large number of ordinary herbs, which can be detoxified." Su Rong sighed, "I'm afraid I still have to think about it." ”

"Let's check the current situation in the northern Hebei military camp for the time being! Then send a letter to Ning Chi, no matter what, defend Nanping City, can't let the Northern Hebei Army break through Nanping City, can't let them enter the city to find herbs to detoxify. Zhou Gu thought, if it really didn't work, if the remaining number of the Northern Hebei Army was small, he would have to take people to defend the city with him.

Or, will he take the opportunity to kill Zhang Cheng and Zhang Yun again?

It's not impossible.

Because most of the soldiers in the northern Hebei military camp planted soft muscles, they were suddenly set up, and it didn't take long for the secret guards who were good at stealth to investigate, and they found out the news, saying that the northern Hebei army was afraid that seven or eight out of ten were planted with soft muscles, and depending on the situation, it was estimated that tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were not hit, and the specific number could not be detected.

Zhou Gu roughly estimated, "Forty or fifty thousand soldiers and horses." ”

"Although this number is less, it is still more than Nanping City." Su Rong said.

Zhou Gu nodded, "But it's okay, it's not that huge, it's better than 200,000 soldiers and horses." ”

"Immediately write a letter to Ning Chi and let Feiying send it in. Let the city no matter what, and defend Nanping City. Mobilize the people in the city as well, as long as they survive this hurdle. The danger of Nanping City can be solved. Su Rong said immediately.

Zhou Gu also meant this, so he immediately picked up his pen, wrote a short letterhead, tied it to the flying eagle's legs, and let it go.
