Chapter 1238 Poison hair!
"General, in the past few days, the Chu army has launched several attacks at night, with dozens of attacks almost every night!"
A few days later, the Qin army camp.
Wang Jian summoned all the generals to discuss the strange movements of the Chu army in the past few days.
General Zhao Tuo said solemnly: “Last night’s attack seemed to be getting more intense, and the scale of the Chu army’s operations was also getting larger.
I suspect that they want to take this opportunity to find out the layout of the trap outside our camp. Once they know the layout of the trap, they will launch a fatal attack. "
As soon as these words were spoken, Wang Jian's face suddenly turned gloomy.
The reason why he can now resist the Chu army is half due to the traps outside the camp. Once the traps fail to work, the Qin army will fight the Chu army head-on.
Although the Qin army is powerful, the troops here are almost the same as those of the Chu army. However, the weapons of the Chu army are far superior to theirs. In a head-on confrontation, the Qin army's chances of winning will not exceed five percent.
While thinking, Li Ran frowned and said, "General, there is one more thing."
"Speak!" Wang Jian said slowly with a gloomy face.
Li Ran said solemnly, "Our spies have sent news that the Chu army has been sending spies deep into our hinterland these days, and it seems that they want to spare our main camp."
Upon hearing this, the generals in the tent began to talk.
"Strange, attacking by detour is a taboo in military strategy, why would the Chu army do such a stupid thing?"
"Hahahaha, the Chu army must think that they can't break through our camp, so they want to take a detour."
"No, Chu Ning has always been cunning, he will definitely not make such a stupid move."
"That's right. Chu Ning is famous for his cunningness. He would never make such a low-level mistake."
The generals had different opinions on the actions of the Chu army.
Some people believed that the Chu army was desperate and wanted to take a detour to attack the heartland of Qin.
But some people think that Chu Ning is very cunning and would never do such a thing, and there must be other reasons behind this.
Wang Jian looked at the generals who were constantly quarreling and could not help but snorted coldly. He slammed the table with his right hand, stood up abruptly, and stared at everyone with cold eyes.
The generals' faces changed slightly, and they suddenly became quiet.
"General, please forgive me!" The generals bowed and begged for forgiveness in unison.
Wang Jian glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "This battle is of great importance, Chu Ning will definitely not commit a major military taboo!
There must be a hidden meaning behind his doing this, but our army has not received much information so we cannot judge.
However, generals, please do not be careless and be on high alert so as not to give the Chu army any chance to take advantage of you."
"Yes!" The generals bowed in agreement.
Just as Wang Jian was about to wave his hand to signal the generals to withdraw, a soldier's voice came from outside the tent:
"General, someone from Black Ice Terrace has come to report something important!"
Wang Jian's heart moved, and he said loudly: "Go in!"
The curtain of the commander's tent was lifted, and a middle-aged man in a black gown walked in quickly.
"Greetings to the General and all the generals!" The man bowed to everyone with a serious face.
The moment Wang Jian saw this person, his pupils suddenly dilated.
Others don't know this person, but he does.
This is Zhao Fu, the deputy commander of the Black Ice Platform!
"It turned out to be Commander Zhao Fu."
Wang Jian frowned and asked, "Why did Deputy Commander Zhao come here to see me personally?"
When the generals heard that it was the deputy commander of Heibingtai, their faces turned serious.
Everyone knows that the Black Ice Platform will not interfere in military affairs. Unless it is an emergency or a big deal, people from the Black Ice Platform rarely enter the military camp.
What’s more, the person who came this time was the deputy commander of Black Ice Platform!
Zhao Fu said solemnly: "In the past few days, many Jinyiwei people have appeared in our country, and they are frantically investigating the news of Lieyang Grass!
As a result, the Prince of Hedong was killed, his mansion was burned down, and several princes were attacked or had their homes robbed.
All signs indicate that these Jinyiwei want to find the Fiery Sun Grass and are willing to take risks to do so.
Although the Black Ice Platform managed to capture some of their strongholds, it did not capture their core figures.
This matter is of great importance. I think something must have gone wrong with Chu Ning, otherwise the Jinyiwei would not have acted so recklessly in our capital city of Kyoto.
Calculating the time, Chu Ning has been poisoned by the blood spider for several months, and now it is about to enter winter, which is the time when the blood spider poison is active! "
As soon as these words were spoken, the tent suddenly became extremely quiet.
After a moment, Zhao Tuo's eyes were burning, his fists were clenched, and he said excitedly: "I understand, I understand everything!"
All the generals turned to look at Zhao Tuo.
Even Wang Jian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked, "What did General Zhao understand? Why not tell us about it?"
Zhao Tuo could hardly suppress his inner feelings, so he stepped out of the formation and said loudly: "Generals, the actions of the Chu army in the past two days have shown that they are anxious!
Now they have sent the Jinyiwei to attack so blatantly in our capital city of Kyoto, even at the cost of exposing their identities. This shows that Chu Ning's blood spider poison has taken effect, and he can't hold on for long, so he is eager to get the Fiery Sun Grass.
The Chu army was testing our traps and exploring roads in preparation for penetrating deep into our territory.
If these three things happened separately, it would be nothing, but when they are combined together, and they happened at the same time, Chu Ning must have been unable to bear it. "
After hearing this, the generals' eyes lit up.
If Chu Ning really can't hold on, then they will have a chance to fight back.
What the Chu army fears most is Chu Ning. If Chu Ning is unable to command the troops, he will have nothing to fear.
But Li Ran, who was cautious by nature, was a little confused. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Didn't they say that the poison Chu Ning was poisoned with was suppressed for more than half a year? Why did the poison break out in just a few months?"
Zhao Fu suddenly explained, "I asked the high priest about this matter, and he said that according to Chu Ning's physical condition, he can indeed last for half a year.
However, once you use your internal strength or get angry during the process, the poison will take longer to take effect.
In addition, due to the current weather, the cold weather makes it easier for the blood spider poison to become active. Even if Chu Ning doesn't die, he will be tortured by the blood spider poison and unable to get out of bed!"
Everyone reacted after hearing this.
After being poisoned, Chu Ning did get angry and resorted to violence.
In addition, winter is approaching and the blood spider venom is also active. Although the poison is not fatal at this moment, it is enough to torture Chu Ning.
"I see!"
Li Ran nodded slightly: "If Chu Ning is being tortured by the blood spider poison, it is no wonder that the Chu army is panicking and getting impatient."
Zhao Tuo was more direct, and he saluted and said, "General, since Chu Ning is now poisoned, why don't we take advantage of the opportunity to attack!
Humph, their soldiers come to destroy the traps every day and night. If we can wipe out this army, the Chu army will also suffer heavy losses.
In addition, our army can also use this battle to see how the Chu army reacts, and even let the people of Black Ice Platform investigate Chu Ning’s current situation.”
Wang Jian hesitated for a moment, then his eyes turned cold and he nodded, "General Zhao is right!"
"If the Chu army comes again tomorrow night, General Zhao will lead his troops to capture them!"
"Deputy Commander Zhao, the investigation of Chu Ning is now handed over to you, Black Ice Platform!"
