Chapter 70: Panmu and Turtle

Yang Duanhe looked confused: "What is sweating medicine?"

After Yang Duanhe asked this, Chen Bing knew that there was no chance. He explained with a little disappointment:

"It's a medicine that will temporarily lose consciousness after taking it."

Yang Duanhe thought about it and replied:

"This sweating drug has never existed, but the same effect is the turtle turtle."

Chen Bing stared at Yang Duanhe blankly.

I thought to myself, what the hell is this wood turtle?

Later, Chen Bing realized that this was a poison, and it was usually a poison that only nobles would prepare.

There is a saying that "accompanies the king as if he is with a tiger". In ancient times, nobles were actually very unsafe.

This was especially true after Shang Yang's reforms, where laws either chopped their feet or cut their noses.

These are pretty good. If the king is annoyed, tortures such as "lingchi", "cutting in half", "car splitting" will be staged.

So in order to prevent it, most nobles will prepare some poison to "take poison and commit suicide."

Don't live or die or suffer when you get it.

This turtle is one of the commonly used poisons.

Although the crane head red and other streams are effective quickly, they are in a miserable state of death and are expensive.

In contrast, the price of turtle is very affordable, and the symptoms after taking it are limb tremors, difficulty breathing, and then die in a coma, which is relatively less painful.

It can be said that he committed suicide by taking poison at home...

Chen Bing asked again without answering: "I wonder if this object is burned deadly?"

Yang Duanhe shook his head and replied:

"Although I haven't tried it, I know that taking a small amount of this product is not fatal."

"It only causes headaches, dizziness, poor breathing and lack of mobility, etc."

"What's the use of this thing?"

Then Yang Duanhe laughed again:

"Can you want to poison those Zhao Bings?"

"If we can poison the food, why should we do this too much?"

Yang Duan said this that if he could sneak into the Zhao army and poison it, it would be even easier to open the city gate directly.

However, Chen Bing has his own reasons, and he answered slowly:

"What if we didn't poison the food, but put the turtle in a meringue fire bullet and threw it into the city?"

Yang Duanhe couldn't help but say "Oh" when he heard this, then widened his eyes and nodded:

"A clever plan, this plan can most likely be successful!"

"That's what you plan to do."

Needless to say, Yang Duanhe reported this to Wang Jian as soon as possible.

Wang Jian was helpless at this time, so he would not have any reason to disagree.

At that time, the nobles of the army ordered the turtle they carried with them...

Aristocrats with conditions will also bring some in wartime to prevent them from being relieved when they are seriously injured.

In addition, Wang Jian also sent cavalry to search for nearby pharmacies, and within one day he gathered half a basket of turtles.

The number is not large, so it is certainly not enough to deal with all the Zhao army.

But if you just deal with the city gate... that would be more than enough.

That night, Shen Bing asked someone to pack these turtles into dozens of meringue fire bombs.

This is not a simple loading, but mixing it in dried horse manure and then filling it with the middle layer of the meringue fire bomb.

This is done because the dried horse manure burns longer and there will be a lot of smoke.

From a scientific perspective:

If horse manure is not used, the poisonous gas produced by the turtle burning will quickly rise into the air and be dissipated by the wind.

If mixed with horse manure, there are many heavier particles and impurities in the horse manure smoke, which will stay on the ground and spread for a long time with the toxicity of the turtle.

As for wrapping it in the middle layer, it is for more full combustion.

After that, Chen Bing also asked someone to tie these special melon fireballs with a red rope to show the difference.

Otherwise, it would be a good idea if you accidentally mix in other fireballs and numb your own people.

Yang Duanhe Na organized five hundred men who were trapped in the battle and practiced overnight.

The drill content is to make them familiar with the city gate structure, and which team is responsible for killing the enemy after rushing to the top of the city, which team is responsible for covering, and which team is responsible for opening the city gate...

I was busy until late at night before I gave them some delicious food and drinks before I took the time to rest.

The next morning, as soon as the sky was dawn, Zhao Jun smashed the platform with a catapult as usual.

What Zhao Jun didn't know was that those high platforms were just wooden shelves that were intended to attract his attention.

When the sun slowly rose from the east, Wang Jian ordered to launch an attack.

In an instant, the drums rumbling, and the killing sound shook the sky.

Tens of thousands of Qin army rushed towards the city wall from all sides like a tide, then set up a siege ladder and climbed up the city wall.

The focus of the Qin army's attack was on the east, west and south sides.

This can be seen from the number of Qin army's catapults and the strength of the siege.

Especially in the east, the number of catapults and crossbowmen is the sum of other directions.

The stone bullets and arrows flew towards the Zhao army like dark clouds covering the sky and the sun.

This is reasonable.

The ancients attacked the city without considering the random arrangement of troops and attacking the city. They also considered various factors.

For example, in the east of the morning, the sun rises from the horizon and shines directly on the east side of the city.

This will cause some interference to the sight of Zhao Jun in the east, especially the crossbowman.

However, the Qin army crossbowmen illuminated the city because the sunlight illuminated the top of the city, making it easier to find the target.

The veteran Pang Nuan was responsible for defending the city... After Li Mu's death, Pang Nuan was still useful in Zhao State.

As for Zhao Cong, he was boycotted by all the military and civilians for his bad reputation of killing Li Mu.

Of course, this boycott is not public.

But no matter which army Zhao Cong leads, there will be many deserters or subordinates who are disobedient.

In desperation, King Zhao could only leave him aside.

Pang Nuan stood at the top of the city and observed the Qin army's offensive. His first feeling was that the Qin army's attack was different from usual.

The biggest difference is that the scale is much larger than usual. Looking around, the Qin army is ready to go, densely packed like ants.

Pang Nuan only thought that the Qin army was trying to fight to the death, so he immediately pulled the troops towards the main attack direction of the Qin army, which is the East Gate.

However, what Pang Nuan didn't expect was that this was just the Qin army's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

The main attack direction of the Qin army has always been the North Gate where Yang Duanhe is responsible.

No wonder Pang Nuan didn’t expect that the North Gate wall was several feet higher than the city wall in other directions, so how could the Qin army dominate it?

Even Pang Nuan thought that it was normal for the Qin army to attack the weakest in the North Gate.

The two armies fought back and forth like this for half an hour, and the situation changed before Pang Nuan reacted.

When Pang Nuan was busy transferring a large number of supplies and troops to the east gate, a general hurriedly reported:

"General!"

"The Qin army strengthened its offensive at the North Gate."

"Beijing Gate asks for help."

Pang Nuan was too poor to deal with it. When he heard this, he only said that the North Gate was just the Qin army diverting his sight.

So he responded without thinking:

"Let the North Gate hold on."

"There will be reinforcements later!"

The general replied and returned to reply.

Who would have thought that before Pang Nuan could send reinforcements, the north gate was in chaos.

Just as Pang Nuan was confused, several soldiers covered in blood came and shouted:

"General, something big is not good!"

"The North Gate is lost!"

"The Qin army has broken through the north gate and entered the city!"
