Chapter 1014: The War of Epidemic Poison?

Zhang Chong is Zhang Changming's eldest son, and Yingzhou Tenant is an impostor, of course, he uses this surname, He Ye knows the inside story very well, and he doesn't need Bai Yu to explain at this time, he clenched his fists tightly: "Follow him, but don't be careful not to startle the snake!" ”

Bai Yu also clenched his fist and slammed it to his chest: "Your Highness, rest assured, I will go in person!" ”

After saying that, he turned around and walked quickly, and disappeared into the wind and snow in a few breaths.

"Tonight, maybe it's time for a raid!" He Ye's eyes lit up, and he turned around and punched Liu Yan: "Gather people and horses, wait for my order!" ”

That Zhang Chong, suddenly got the "son-in-law" to pass on the secret letter, in a hurry, he couldn't think of the rest of the magic way to get out, so he had to use the excuse of abdominal pain when escorting the arrows, and needed to solve the "three urgency of people", he was just an inconsequential sergeant, although he was blinded by the leader, and complained that he was delaying his duties, he couldn't watch Zhang Chong pull in the crotch of his pants, the team leader waved his hand, and the horizontal and vertical were not bad for this hand, and they continued to transport supplies forward, and the team leader did not know that Zhang Chong had not returned to the camp until he went back to Guancheng, so he hurriedly reported, and he was worried in his heart:

Could it be that Zhang Chong actually became a deserter? It shouldn't be, we're just a logistical escort, a little scared, what kind of soldier is it good to escape?

Just said that Zhang Chong, after avoiding everyone, because he was in the range of the sentry outside the gate, he was familiar with the terrain, and although he seemed to be weak and couldn't help the wind, he actually had special training, climbing the wall like walking on the ground, and escaping from tracking was naturally not a problem, but he was in a hurry to get out at this time, and he was negligent behind him, and his identity had already been exposed, so he didn't notice that someone was watching, and when he thought he was safe, Zhang Chong had the leisure to think deeply:

Although he was free, he didn't know where the Anton army was, and if he was far away, he didn't even know the terrain, so how could he connect with the Anton army?

Remembering that when he was in the Guannei army, he had heard others talk about only a few words, saying that Major General Qingmian had led the army back to help, and the reason why there were a lot of arrows and arrows consumed in these days was because the vanguard army raided the enemy camp, Zhang Chongwei once measured, and made up his mind, he knew that a certain sentry needed to consume the most arrows, maybe it was the place where the vanguard army was secretly supplied, and he secretly followed, or he could find Anton's camp tent with the raiding department, although he did not ride, it was difficult to catch up with the raiding troops with his legs, but after the horse walked, there would always be traces left on the snow!

The idea was decided, Zhang Chong immediately took action, "coincidence" is that the road is meeting a vanguard army, Zhang Chong secretly followed, then followed by the traces on the snow, traced to a certain place, saw only dozens of people guarding the empty horse, most of them did not know where to go, he measured a little, guessed that this vanguard army must be trying to take advantage of the night to sneak attack, in order to prevent the horseshoe from worrying the sentry guard of the Anton army, then walked in ambush, he avoided this place to ride and hide, carefully traced the traces, sure enough, he saw a high place, in the valley forest, there are rare people hidden.

Zhang Chong held his breath, climbed a big tree with his hands and feet, opened the branches and leaves, and saw that the flat place under it, the camp tents were lined up, and it was estimated that about 2,000 people were stationed here.

These iron pipes are delicate enough to be carried around, but they can only fire arrows but cannot hurt people, and are intended for scout sentinels to warn of a sneak attack on the camp.

Suddenly the soldiers were in chaos, the "sneak attack" alarm rang out, the Anton military camp rushed out of a team, attacking in this direction, the vanguard army who intended to sneak attack saw that they had lost the opportunity, and did not love to fight, and quickly evacuated, Zhang Chong appeared, raised his hands, and shouted in code, indicating that he was his own person.

Of course, he was not immediately believed, and was treated with a lot of flowers, and was escorted by friendly troops to meet the generals.

No one left an opinion, on the high ground, on the branch of another big treetop with dense foliage, the white fish had the eyes of an eagle falcon, still firmly staring at Zhang Chong, he was also laughing, and he was not annoyed by the loss of the tracking target, because he understood that his task had been completed, and what he had to do was to report Zhang Chong's whereabouts in time, so that he could meet the raiding force of the vanguard army, and smoothly let Zhang Chong find the Anton army, and report the "secret" to Liu Hongyuan, as soon as Zhang Chong entered the enemy camp, of course it was impossible for the white fish to follow and keep an eye on him. Because even if Zhang Chong was sent to Liu Hongyuan's main camp, it would be impossible for Bai Yu to pass through this enemy camp, but he didn't need to continue to keep an eye on it.

Jin Wang Ye is not unaware of where Liu Hongyuan's main account is, and I believe that in the surrounding area, His Royal Highness has quietly laid down his eyes and ears.

As long as Liu Hongyuan has a movement, His Royal Highness should know that it is done!

——

Liu Hongyuan was frustrated again and again due to the assault, and he was also injured by the "Qin Balang" sword, seeing the vanguard army returning to help, it was expected that the Changshan Pass ambush army had been annihilated, and seeing that the army was tired, he had no choice but to order the withdrawal of the army to rest, but of course he understood that there was no way back, and he still did not extinguish the idea of gathering people to storm after reinvigorating morale, but the outer camp tent was repeatedly harassed by the Guangyang Department, so that Liu Hongyuan had been exhausted, until he finally woke up, and found that the Guangyang Department was ready to accept it when it was good, but pretended to chase and fight, Liu Hongyuan suspected that the enemy was not as strong as he imagined, but when he was replanning, he suddenly heard that two soldiers in the army were seriously ill and died, and he was puzzled for a while.

Because of the wind and food, although the soldiers inevitably suffer from illness, but it is very rare to die just because of the disease, and most of the deaths are due to serious injuries, but these two soldiers were not injured, but they died of high fever for some reason, not only that, but after these two soldiers, there were more than ten soldiers who had high fever one after another, and they could not afford to be sick.

Although there are military doctors in the army, they are all good at treating traumatic injuries, and it is difficult to reach a conclusion for a while, some people say that it is because of typhoid fever, some people say that the symptoms are like being infected with the plague, Liu Hongyuan immediately ordered the patient to be isolated, and ordered the doctor not to speak falsely, but his heart is up and down.

On this day, suddenly an outer wing guard sent a member claiming to be an internal responder, Liu Hongyuan immediately received him, and the approval order was correct, and he heard that there was an outbreak of plague in Guangyang City, and even Qin Ming was seriously ill for a while. But it was missed!

However, when Princess Jin found out that the plague was man-made, Liu Hongyuan was shocked.

He is the leader of the general, of course, I have heard of the Turkic people's use of epidemic poison to win the strategy, even as early as the Han Dynasty, the Huns used sick and dead cattle and horses to put water sources to spread the beginning of the plague, but whether it is Turkic, or Xiongnu, are nomadic people, their people can move at will, the water source is polluted, the harm to themselves is very small, not comparable to the Chinese people, to agriculture as the most important, the people can not move at will, if the use of epidemic poison, it can be said that the enemy is injured by 1,000 and 800.

Therefore, Liu Hongyuan never thought that the Zhou family would use the epidemic poison in the war, because once the water source is polluted, it is difficult to protect the people under his rule and countless losses, even if he wins, the Son of Heaven of the Great Zhou, the Empress Dowager Wei, the princess of Jin who made this decision, and even the Marquis of Wuwei and Qin Balang, will definitely bear the infamy, pointed out by thousands of people, recorded in the history books, and reprimanded by thousands of generations, Liu Hongyuan is also a Chinese citizen, he knows that under the influence of Confucian orthodoxy, those people above the throne, how much they pay attention to reputation and virtue, he can't believe that the princess of Jin will be reckless and use this fallacy.

However, if this strategy originated among the enemies of Dongxuan, the princess of Jin would have an excuse to shirk it, where would the common people understand the origin of the canal, as long as the princess of Jin used the excuse that the Guangyang epidemic affected Youyan, maybe she would be able to get out of the matter and let the Turks and the Dongxuan people become the target of public criticism!

There is no more poisonous thing than a woman's heart!

Although Liu Hongyuan dealt with it in a timely manner, and the epidemic did not spread in Andong's army for a while, after learning the truth, how could he not suspect that the water source was polluted? The Anton army is the attacking party, although the grain and grass are prepared, it is impossible to bring their own water to drink, but it is impossible for people and horses not to drink water, thinking that the princess of Jin has already put the epidemic poison in the water source, how can Liu Hongyuan rest assured?

To add insult to injury, more than a dozen people with high fever died again!

And these people who died of illness turned out to be the main tent sergeants!

Don't drink the water of the canal anymore!

- This order caused panic in the army, because there was no water source except the water of the canal.

At this time, the Guangyang troops launched a surprise attack on the three wing battalions in several ways, apparently having discovered the location of the main tent, which further confirmed the possibility of poisoning, but this time, the Guangyang Department still accepted it when it saw it.

Liu Hongyuan didn't hesitate anymore, he couldn't delay here, because once the plague broke out and the sergeant died of illness, the only thing waiting for him was a defeat, he could only give up Weize Pass, withdraw to Baoding, and fight to the death with the Wuwei Hou Department!

However, the outbreak of the plague has been leaked, because of the clues such as death, isolation, and prohibition of drinking water, all of which point to it, not to mention that the main general actually gave up the reeds and chose that desperate retreat.

The Anton Army was in turmoil, and at this moment, He Ye, who had always been accepting it when he saw it, finally pulled out his long sword completely, pointing directly at the main force of the Anton Army, tens of thousands of horses, attacking like a sea of mountains, not as good as the retreating wing battalion, there were those who fled, there were those who surrendered, and even when all thoughts were lost, Liu Hongyuan fled to Baoding in a panic, this time he still couldn't help but look back-

He used to be almost one step away from Wei Ze Pass!

However, looking back this time, he couldn't see the wall of the outpost in Weize Pass, he couldn't see the cold eyes of "Qin Balang", and in the wind and snow, all he saw was a vast expanse.

Defeated, defeated! Although there is still a road ahead, it is only a road to survive.

Anton soldiers, my great and benevolent king of Anton, ministers, ashamed and landless.
