Water Margin people

Chapter 1554: Cracking the Plague Tactics

"What's the difference between dead people and dead cattle and sheep? Didn't you kill so many people?"

Yelu Dashi looked at Sun Lei and yelled.

"As for the difference, if you say there is no difference, then there is no difference. If you say there is a difference, then there is a difference. You are no different from cattle and sheep, but we are all brothers! Even if we die in battle, we must return to our homeland for burial, enjoy eternal incense, and bless our families."

Sun Lei said.

"You threw all those sick and dead people into the water! You're crazy!"

Bilege was very anxious and yelled at Yelu Dashi. Others did not know how precious the water source was, but he knew very well that once the water source was polluted, this area would become a dead place.

"I am your king. If I am gone, why do you want to live?"

Yelu Dashi looked at Bilege and said, his words were so matter-of-fact, because Bilege had brought the Gaochang Uighurs to swear allegiance to him.

"You are crazy, crazy!"

Bilege realized that only now he saw Yelu Dashi clearly. He was not a wise and heroic leader, but a complete madman.

"In what waters did you drop the bodies!"

The other Khans also asked anxiously. They often used this plague tactic and they had seen entire tribes die from the plague.

"Which waters? Of course I'm going to deploy in all waters! Don't worry, I'm not going to miss any water within a thousand miles of the entire valley, so just wait and see!"

Yelu Dashi laughed wildly, his laughter was extremely crazy.

"Madman, we'll kill you!"

Several Khans felt like they were going crazy. They actually followed such a madman. You know, this war has lasted for a long time, and the drinking water stored by both sides has been almost consumed. Now the water source is polluted. Isn't this going to cost them their lives?

"Haha, to tell you the truth, long before I led the army out of Hami City, I ordered the bodies of the sick and dead to be thrown into various water sources. In such a hot day, those bodies should have rotted thoroughly!"

Yelu Dashi laughed wildly. He knew that the chances of winning this battle were slim, so he had prepared for the worst from the very beginning. Even if he lost, the person in front of him would be buried with him.

"Brother Bile, you may not know this yet, but Sun Lei took over Gaochang City more than half a month ago. You don't have to think about going back. Let's go to hell together. In hell, I will still be your king! Haha!"

Yelu Dashi mocked Bilege again. Just now, Bilege was the first one to jump out and join Sun Lei. Now, this treacherous man knew what despair was.

"My Gaochang City!"

Bilege was stunned. He was still thinking of finding a way to escape and return to Gaochang City, but now Gaochang City had been lost and he had no way out.

"There is only one river valley with water source in the thousands of miles of Gobi Desert. You don't even have water. I wonder how you can get out!"

Yelu Dashi looked at Sun Lei and laughed wildly. He was very dissatisfied with Sun Lei's indifferent attitude. How come his plan of dying together did not arouse Sun Lei's anger at all? In his eyes, Sun Lei should be furious at this time, asking the soldiers to torture him severely and use all kinds of torture to vent his hatred.

"A bunch of clowns!"

Sun Lei looked at the people in front of him as if he was watching a group of clowns performing.

"You are dying and yet you are still stubborn. Even if you can escape alive, your army of more than 100,000 will be buried with me!"

Yelu Dashi roared.

But it was not just Sun Lei who did not react. All the generals and soldiers did not react after hearing this. They did not seem to be worried about the water source. "What a pity these stupid barbarians are!"

Sun Lei took out the water gourd and drank some water, but he did not swallow it. Instead, he rinsed his mouth and spit it out.

"I thought you had some brilliant plan, but it turns out you only have these cheap tricks!"

Sun Lei shook his head, and all the generals and soldiers burst into laughter. The Qi army had very strict hygiene regulations, so how could they be afraid of a little bit of polluted water?

"You don't have to pretend to be calm. I want to see how you die!"

Yelu Dashi roared angrily. For some reason he felt a little guilty. His carefully designed plan of mutual destruction seemed to have no effect on Sun Lei.

"It's really sad. You studied hard for ten years and passed the imperial examination in Liao. I thought you were a well-educated person. But now I see that you are just like your Khitan ancestors, a barbarian who eats raw meat and drinks blood. Did you get the imperial examination through the backdoor?"

Sun Lei looked at Yelu Dashi and said.

  Yelu Dashi was completely enraged and struggled desperately. Being a Jinshi was the greatest honor in his life. He was the first Jinshi in the Khitan tribe in hundreds of years!

But no matter what Yelu Dashi

"Looking at your excited expression, it seems that you don't even know what disease is?"

Seeing Yelu Dashi so excited, Sun Lei continued to ask.

"You don't understand medical principles. You only know that illness comes from the mouth, and you think that if you eat something, you will get sick. Have you ever thought about why some people get sick while others don't, even though we are all the same?"

Sun Lei spoke calmly.

"Do you think you can avoid getting sick? The water here is polluted. If you want to leave the valley, you won't need fresh water!"

Yelu Dashi roared.

"Do you know the difference between civilized people and savages? Civilized people know how to use their brains to solve problems, while savages only know how to scream! Why did humans invent fire? Because humans are not beasts. They cannot bear to eat raw meat and drink blood. Food must be cooked with fire, and there will be no problem eating it once it is cooked."

"It's the same with water. You savages only know how to run to the waterside to drink water. Drinking raw water will definitely make you sick, but what if you boil it? Have you ever seen anyone get an upset stomach after drinking boiled water?"

Sun Lei looked at Yelu Dashi and said slowly that he was not afraid of the plague tactics at all. His superficial knowledge was enough for this simple disease.

"Impossible! Impossible!"

Yelu Dashi roared in anger. He couldn't believe that his plan was cracked so easily.

"Nothing is impossible. In fact, you are really stupid. Even if it is not like this, I have a way to solve the pollution problem. This is a river valley, the terrain is low, and the groundwater is not deep. It is not difficult to find a place to dig some wells. You pollute the surface water, and the groundwater is very safe!"

Sun Lei attacked again. It was too easy to break such a simple move as throwing the corpse into the water.

Yelu Dashi then realized that he had not thought about groundwater. This was a river valley, not a desert, so it was not easy to dig a well.

After hearing all this, several Khans were overjoyed. They finally saved their lives. They didn't understand Sun Lei's principles, but they knew a lot about digging wells. They had nothing to be afraid of as long as there was well water.

Yelu Dashi was completely discouraged. All his preparations and strategies were exposed and he was completely defeated.

"Pass the order down, seal off Hami City, and wait until all the troops are dead before entering!"

Sun Lei looked at Zhang Qing and gave orders. The most troublesome thing now was Hami City. There were too many enemies who died of the plague. It was risky to enter the city at this time.
