The Nanman people lost three battles in a row and finally stopped. For more than ten days, the Nanman camp did not move at all. At such a tense moment, the opponent suddenly stopped attacking, which seemed to be a bad sign. In Yuejun City, except for Long Fei and
Except for Guo Jia and Guo Jia, everyone else thought it was because the southern barbarians were afraid, and they were all gearing up. After being miserable in the city for so long, they finally went out to kill him.
In the past few days, people have been coming to ask for a fight, and the one who yelled the most fiercely was Dian Wei. Ever since his son Dianman was bullied that day, he always wanted to take revenge, and he had to show the guy riding the white elephant that he was his.
The twin halberds are as powerful as those wolves, insects, tigers and leopards.
"Boss, just let them go? What do those southern barbarians have to worry about? They are just a bunch of rabble. I, Old Dian, will definitely kill them all!" Dian Wei said in a rough voice, waving the iron halberd in his hand constantly.
Long Fei glared at him: "Please be quiet! Stay here while you go, I have the final say on whether you can leave the city or not!"
Dian Wei was still mumbling, and he was absolutely unconvinced, but Long Fei said that he couldn't be too stubborn, so Xu Chu pulled him aside to sulk. Long Fei shook his head and asked Guo Jiadao: "Feng Xiao"
, what do you think? Is there really nothing this group can do?"
Guo Jia pondered for a long time and shook his head slightly: "The Southern Barbarians are located in a remote place and live a difficult life. There are wolves, insects, tigers and leopards running rampant in the territory. There are definitely some tricks to survive in such a place. The two people in the first two times were very stubborn.
The Vine Armor and the beasts of King Mulu are both Southern Barbarian monsters. With Meng Huo’s temper, since they haven’t withdrawn their troops, it’s obvious that their methods are not over yet!”
"You mean they'll come again?"
Guo Jia nodded: "Yes! I will definitely come again, but I can't guess how to deal with us!"
Long Fei took a deep breath and lowered his head in thought. Xu Shu said: "According to the information we have, Meng Huo has four allies in sending troops this time. Only one of them has not shown up yet, and that is King Duosi, who is known as the most wise man in the Southern Barbarians.
He is Meng Huo's military advisor, and he is ruthless and extremely difficult to deal with! However, I heard that there are some problems in his Bald Dragon Cave recently, and people are constantly escaping. I have sent spies to find out, and there should be news soon!"
Speaking of those things about the Southern Barbarians, Long Fei actually didn’t know much about it. He only watched Zhuge Liang when he saw the Three Kingdoms. As for Zhuge Liang’s southern expedition, Long Fei only took a few glances at it, because the unruly Tengjia Army made Zhuge Liang suffer a lot.
, and then he remembered this person. As for King Duosi, the impression left in Long Fei's mind was extremely limited.
Long Fei regretted a little and blamed himself for not bringing the entire "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Although the book was artistically processed, fortunately it still had some historical data. Just when Long Fei was at a loss what to do, the messenger outside the tent suddenly
Come in: "My lord, someone is calling at the door of the city, saying that they are bringing the cave!"
"Oh? Please come!" Long Fei was overjoyed. He didn't know this King Duosi, but they, the Southern Barbarians, should know.
The person who came was a middle-aged man wearing Hanfu. He claimed to be the personal guard who brought the cave master Zhu Hui. He took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Long Fei. Long Fei opened it hurriedly and saw that Juanxiu's seal character was Zhu Rong.
He wrote the letter himself. Long Feizai read the letter carefully and found that Zhu Rong was indeed a hero among women. The letter introduced the current situation of Meng Huo's camp in detail, focusing on King Duosi.
King Duosi is the cave owner of Tulong Cave in Nanman. Tulong Cave is in the southwest of Nanman, with mountains at its back and a river in front. Tulong Cave is located in a steep valley deep in the mountains. This place is dry all year round, and no grass grows in the valley.
, but there are jagged rocks. There are angular granite everywhere. There is only one path leading to Tulong Cave. The path starts from the river and goes through the woods. This forest is full of miasma, and those who don’t know the key will probably die if they go in.
There are dense trees in the forest. If you want to go to Tulong Cave, you must prepare enough water. The water source in this forest is absolutely not drinkable. Especially the four-eyed poisonous spring, no matter what it touches, it will definitely die.
It is precisely because of the existence of these four poisonous springs that Tulong Cave occupies territory in the Southern Barbarians. Whenever an attacker wants to attack Tulong Cave, King Duosi will have people pour water from the poisonous springs on the trees.
The miasma is even worse. Secondly, anyone who touches the poisonous spring water will be poisoned and die. The only way to cure the poisonous spring water is the clear spring behind Tulong Cave. In case of poisoning, no medicine will have any effect.
Zhu Rong also said that King Duosi came with Meng Huo this time and brought several barrels of poisonous spring water from Poisonous Dragon Cave. Last night, he suddenly found soldiers carrying poisonous water out of the camp and disappeared.
Seeing this, Long Fei suddenly understood that King Duosi must have given Meng Huo another idea, maybe he was going to use the water from this poisonous spring to make some fuss. Long Fei rewarded the person who sent the message.
He sent him back, circulated Zhu Rong's letter to everyone, and said, "Let's talk about it. What do you think?"
Xu Chu frowned: "Is this King Duosi planning to use the water from these poisonous springs to deal with us? But how will he do it? We are in the city and they are outside the city. It is difficult to poison them without entering the city!"
Fei Yi quickly waved his hand: "That's not necessarily true. Although we use well water in the city, don't forget that the well water is connected with the water in the Xiaoqing River outside the city. If King Duosi pours the water from the poisonous spring into
Xiaoqing River, the people in the city may drink poisonous water, and it is not a good thing for the whole city to be poisoned."
Long Fei nodded: "Yes, we really need to be careful about this!"
Before Long Fei finished speaking, a soldier in military uniform ran in. The eye-catching red cross mark on his chest indicated that he was a doctor accompanying the army. When Long Fei saw him, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. The man knelt down on the ground.
: "Lord, something bad has happened. A plague has suddenly spread in the city. Many people and soldiers have fallen ill!"
"Plague, are you sure it's the plague?"
The doctor was puzzled by the question. He nodded after thinking for a long time and then shook his head: "I can't tell you exactly what happened. In short, those people had fever and chills, and many people suffered from vomiting and diarrhea. This is very similar to the condition of the plague.
Similar!"
Guo Jia looked at Long Fei: "Lord, there must be something fishy about this matter. We should investigate it immediately and inform the people in the city not to drink water for the time being to avoid the spread of the disease!"
"How can this be done? People will die of thirst if they don't drink water!" Dian Wei found the loophole in Guo Jia's words and immediately said: "It's okay if you don't drink water. You can give me three jars of wine every day!"
"What you think is really good!" Long Fei glanced at Dian Wei and beckoned the doctor to him: "Immediately organize people to treat the people and soldiers. As for the cause of the disease, I think I already know it. Post a notice to ask the people not to drink.
Water, wait for my news."
A raging fire burned in Yuejun City. Standing on the mound outside the city, Meng Huo and King Duosi were checking. Seeing the fire in the city, King Duosi laughed and said: "It seems that our plan was successful.
They are burning corpses! As long as your Majesty listens to me, all the Dragon Army soldiers and the Han people in the city will die in their own homes within three days."
"Okay! Very good! Very good! Now Long Fei shouldn't be able to crack it!" Meng Huo turned to the messenger and said: "Gather all the soldiers and horses immediately and surround Yue Jun for me. Let's enter the city in three days.
Collect the bodies!”
Long Fei spent a day without eating or drinking, and burned piles of charcoal. The charcoal was piled in the backyard of the Yamen. He found a few strong people and asked them to break all the charcoal.
into small pieces one by one. Everyone didn't understand what Long Fei was doing, but they didn't dare to ask and asked Guo Jia to discuss it. Although Guo Jia didn't know, he knew that Long Fei must have some purpose in burning the charcoal.
That night, Long Fei took a piece of charcoal and a tea cup and came to the largest well in the city. When the people nearby heard that Long Fei was coming, they hurried out to watch the fun. In front of everyone, Long Fei asked Dian Wei to follow
He filled a bucket of water from the well, put the charcoal into his tea cup, then scooped a cup from the bucket, and said to everyone: "Dear fellow villagers, because the water wells in the city are connected with the water in the Xiaoqing River outside the city, the Nanman people give
The Xiaoqing River has been poisoned, and the water in our city is no longer drinkable. Everyone has seen that what is in my cup is a piece of charcoal. With this thing, we can drink water with confidence!"
Long Fei picked up the tea cup and drank the water soaked in charcoal in big gulps. Everyone was confused by Long Fei's actions. He was the one who said the well water was not drinkable, and he was the one who said it was drinkable.
The people looked at Long Fei in confusion. Long Fei smiled slightly: "To tell you the truth, this charcoal looks black, but it is actually the best disinfectant. As long as we soak the charcoal before drinking water, it will be absolutely fine.
!”
Everyone did not leave, they wanted to see if Long Fei was really okay. Long Fei guessed it right, because the weather in the south was too humid, and the fallen leaves and animal carcasses slowly rotted in the humidity.
The four poisonous springs in Tulong Cave are precisely because leaves and dead animal carcasses are fermented, and highly pathogenic parasites or other bugs grow, and these things gather into the spring water with the water flow. This
As a result, as long as people come into contact with them, they will immediately find a host for these bugs, and then become poisoned and sick.
Long Fei's activated carbon happens to be a powerful tool for filtering water. He learned this trick when he was in the army. Everyone saw that Long Fei was doing nothing, and finally believed Long Fei's words. Long Fei immediately asked someone to use it and burn it himself
The charcoal was distributed to everyone. The common people knelt down in front of Long Fei, and everyone shouted: Thank you General Long for saving his life.
For three whole days, Long Fei worked day and night, explaining the use of charcoal to the people and organizing people to burn more charcoal. We don’t know how long the poisonous water will stay in the groundwater, so we must be prepared. Yuejun New Opening
In the charcoal factory, everyone was very busy. The messengers hurried over, and this time they brought good news. Because Meng Huo was going to launch a large-scale attack.
