Chapter 50 Weapons of Mass Destruction
At night, Yu Wen Wen was a little tired after the patrol patrol. As a young man with a strong spirit, he hadn't touched a woman for a long time. He didn't want to use his hands and was not a man-like person. So in order to divert his attention, he was always looking for things to do and consume his energy.
Back in the tent, wiped my body with hot water and washed my face, recovered a little energy, looked at my pocket watch, and there was still some time before I fell asleep, so I leaned against the desk and thought about the current situation.
Prime Minister Yuchi Jiong was infected with cold and his condition worsened. In order to prevent accidents, he had returned north. Yuwen Wen was also taken away by him as the prince of the pseudo-emperor. The enemy besieged Xuanhu was attacked by Yuwen Wen at night that night and burned the granary. Not long after, he withdrew the circumference and headed north and set up camp in Shaoling.
Although there are more than 100,000 troops, there are a large number of young and strong people, it is still a force that cannot be underestimated. Yu Wen Wen is in Xuanhu, and he will not be able to let go of his hands and attack other directions without solving Shao Ling's great enemy.
Not to mention that the Yuchi army also guarded Yecheng west of Shaoling, blocking Yewandao, Yecheng, and Shaoling echoed each other from the east, firmly locking the passage of Shannan troops to attack Henan.
The Yuwen family's troops in Yuzhou had accumulated more than 50,000 troops and civilians, but they were mainly distributed in the four places of Xuanhu, Baigou, Songping and Guangcheng. The defense lines were stretched very long. If you were not careful, it would be easy to be broken through by the enemy troops in the direction of Bozhou alone.
Although the Bozhou army has now merged with the Shaoling army and became part of the more than 100,000 troops, the north-south defense line from Xuanhu to Guangcheng is still too fragile. Yu Wenwen feels that he cannot continue to waste this way, and it will change later.
Not to mention that the grain and grass of our army are all based on Nan'anzhou and Huangzhou's transportation. The grain and grass in Anzhou are transported through the three passes of Yiyang in Tongbai Mountain. The grain and grass in Huangzhou are transported through the five passes of Dabie Mountain. They all walks through the mountain roads, and the transportation is not easy and consumes a lot.
The enemy troops occupying Yecheng and Shaoling can easily obtain the food and grass delivered by ships in the upper reaches of the river in their area, and even the food and grass from the northern part of the Yellow River can be easily transported to these two places. Yuwen Wen cannot compare with such logistical advantages.
So the other party made up his mind to waste it and use static to control it. Yuwen Wen knew that he could never follow the rhythm of others, so he had to forcefully break the deadlock and annihilate the enemy troops entrenched in Shaoling in a short time, completely reversing the situation in Henan.
It is easy to say but difficult to do. The enemy troops entrenched in Shaoling have more than 100,000. Even if there are a large number of civilians, they are also an extremely powerful army. They were just a little uncomfortable with Yuwen Wen's tricks to defend the city and attack, and they are not really incompetent.
If such an army is formed on the plain, it will probably have to be a scale of several miles. It will be difficult to defeat it in one battle, and it will be even more difficult to defeat the opponent at a smaller cost.
At this time, Yuwen Wen felt more and more uncomfortable to lack cavalry. Without elite cavalry, he could not implement the beheading tactic in the decisive battle, just like the tactics implemented by Li Shimin in the Battle of Hulao Pass in history.
In that battle, Dou Jiande's Xia army and Wang Shichong's Zheng army joined forces to try to attack the Tang army inside and outside with Luoyang as a stronghold. The Xia army had a force of more than 100,000, while Li Shimin relied on attacking the Xia army's main formation and captured Dou Jiande's Xuanjia Army alive, with only more than 3,000 people.
The Xuanjia Army is the elite among the elites. Although Yuwen Wen's Anzhou cavalry now has more than 3,000, it is only ordinary elites and their combat power is completely incomparable, not to mention that the number of cavalrymen in Shaoling's enemy has a large number of them. If conventional tactics are used, the chances of field combat to defeat the enemy are very slim.
So, it's time to use weapons of mass destruction.
Yuwen took out a report from the locked wooden box and looked carefully in the candlelight. The calendar on the desk was painted with a series of symbols, which were the marks Yuwen Wen used to help countdown.
The weapons of mass destruction he made were one of the types of weapons represented by the later term, or the most primitive form, which was probably possible to deal with by a mere health clinic, but in this era, its destruction is really "large-scale".
Once this weapon is improperly operated, it is very likely that it will kill a thousand enemies and lose 100,000 to yourself. Therefore, Yuwen Wen originally planned to use this weapon when he died with the enemy.
However, the situation is special now. Due to the influence of various factors, the success rate of using this weapon to kill enemies is very high. As long as you are prepared for protection, the possibility of being affected is very low.
More importantly, Yuwen Wen's princess was not in the enemy camp, so he had no worries when using this weapon.
After carefully looking at the report and determining the final conclusion, Yu Wenwen looked at the calendar and then at the pocket watch. It was already past midnight. He took out a charcoal pen and drew a fork on the date of today on the calendar.
A series of circle marks on the calendar finally ushered in fork marks, which means that the countdown has entered a new stage and is not far from the end.
......
In the early morning, the darkness before dawn was the most sleepy time. Dozens of figures appeared in the reed marsh by the Lishui River, sneaking towards the riverside. Except for those holding weapons, the rest of them were in groups, carrying dark objects.
When they arrived by the river, the black objects were unpacked and then a foul smell came to their noses. Even though these people were wearing masks, they were still foul-tempered by the foul-tempered odor.
Several men with masks counted the number of these objects on the side and registered the marks on them. After each registration was completed, the others threw the registered objects into the river.
In order to avoid the accumulation of too many of these odorous objects in the same river section being discovered by patrolling cavalry, the group of people walked down the river channel, threw several objects at a distance, and let them sink to the bottom of the river.
The experimenter with the number "25th character of C" closed the record book after registering in the faint light, and watched his companions throw these special devices into Lishui. Where they are, Shaoling is thirty miles downstream.
Yecheng and Shaoling are more than a hundred miles apart, and there are liquor water connected between them. Liquor water flows from west to east, with abundant water. Even in winter, it will not dry up, and the water level will not be very low in winter.
Therefore, even if something sinks at the bottom of the river, it is not easy to be discovered.
And the distance between thirty miles, the bacteria and eggs in pig manure, the pig manure and chicken manure have not been diluted by the river water.
Thinking of this, the experimenter couldn't help but get distracted. That year, he was still an orphan, and he fainted from frostbite and starving on the side of the road. It was the man who adopted him and lived a life of full food and clothing from then on.
Together with other orphans with similar experiences, everyone grew up in the palace, learning to read and write, learn arithmetic, and finally became experimenters after layers of screening.
To be precise, it is a biochemical experimenter.
He also has a specific number, and on weekdays, he and his companions are mostly called each other by numbers.
In the biochemical laboratory, there is a wonderful device called "microscope". Through this device, "C-zi 25" and other companions entered a magical world and learned that there is a creature in the world called "bacteria".
Among them, there are also bacteria that can cause disease, called "bacteria".
After countless experiments, he and his companions learned that there are a large amount of bacteria in pig manure and chicken and duck manure, and the feces of sick pigs, sick chickens and ducks contain terrible "germs" and insect eggs.
Once these things pollute the water body, and there are people who drink this water, they will get infected with various diseases and even plagues will break out.
Chicken plague and swine fever will not infect people, but once a person drinks water contaminated by feces, he will easily get sick. Then, because his "resistance" decreases, he will be "infected" by other bacteria and may become infected with plague.
Outsiders know that there are many farms outside Xiyang City, and a large amount of poultry and livestock manure is taken out of fertilization every day and then used for fertilization in farmland. However, Bing and his companions are worried about this because they know that this is a huge sky-burning thunder in Xiyang City, which can explode at any time.
Once the feces of sick poultry and livestock are put into the farmland without treatment, it is easy to cause the people of Xiyang to get sick and die a large area. At that time, the royal palace will definitely be affected and the warm homes of the orphans will be gone.
Therefore, measures must be taken to prevent problems before they happen.
The poultry and livestock manure in all breeding farms shall not be used directly for fertilization. It must be centrally processed under the supervision of the government and can only be used with a specific process. Many people have ignored this point.
The people who were responsible for secretly "sampling inspection" during the fertilizer refining process are Bing and their companions. They also have another task, which is to study how to use the feces of sick poultry and livestock to make killing weapons.
In other words, they are making terrible weapons that can cause diseases.
After countless failures, they finally found a set of "crafts" that can "enrich" the bacteria in the feces of sick poultry and livestock, that is, concentrate the bacteria in the feces and "package" them in one device after another.
These devices are used to pollute the water source, so that people within a certain distance downstream will get infected after drinking water, but no one can tell whether the plague will break out.
Once a plague breaks out, will it be out of control and cause the creatures to suffer? It is impossible to control it.
Doing such a thing may cause many families to be destroyed and they may not be reborn after death, but the character "Bing" and the companions do not care.
The man-master and the mistress are their reborn parents, and the royal palace is the warm home of their orphans. In this home, as long as you work hard, you can have enough food and clothing and marry a wife. Therefore, they will do whatever the man-master asks them to do.
The companions who were watching the pocket watch whispered to and from the enemy's rangers would patrol the Yecheng City and Shaoling every day, one was to beware of any smuggling, and the other was to prevent people from throwing dead poultry and livestock from polluting the water source.
So for this period of time, they have chosen to go to the riverside to "poison" in the early morning. They must act quickly and decisively. Things must be done neatly and neatly, and they must never let the enemy notice it, resulting in failure.
