I haven't slept so soundly in a long time.
Lin Yi opened her eyes lazily and vaguely saw Qin Shuihan getting dressed.
"Yiyi, sleep a little longer."
Lin Yi hummed twice and immediately became confused.
The bed was filled with the smell of Qin Shuihan, and he slept until midnight.
Lin Yi stretched out comfortably, as if he had returned to Jinghan Pavilion.
It's just that the bed board is so hard.
At this time, the barracks was exposed to direct sunlight, making the room very warm and a bit hot.
She patted her cheek.
When you’re done sleeping, get up and get to work!
As soon as I walked out of the barracks, I met several soldiers.
The soldiers gave him strange looks.
Lin Yi instinctively glanced at his clothes and touched his hair.
The clothes were wrinkled and the hair was uncombed.
Typical disheveled look.
Lin Yi didn't dare to raise his head, so he immediately lowered his head and hurried to his barracks.
"Who is that?"
"He actually came out of King Han's barracks."
"Looking at the clothes, they should be different from us."
"King Han really has a strong taste."
The soldiers glanced at Lin Yi again, but then they realized that a man next to them was staring at them eagerly.
They glanced at Li Shang again.
Guards in royal robes!
That young boy also has a guard!
The soldiers turned away angrily.
Lin Yi didn't hear what they said, but Li Li beside him did hear their whispers.
He looked at Lin Yi. It was only natural that the princess and her master lived together.
But I didn't expect to be mistaken for a man.
Li Shang felt a little funny again.
There is no need to report this matter to the master.
As soon as he entered the barracks, Lin Yi found that the bottles on the table were gone.
But yesterday she specially marked the bottle, so there should be no mistake.
"Bi Yue, was all the poison taken yesterday taken away by Shui Han?"
"Yes. This slave has informed the master that the bottle with the larger mouth and the red paint is the poison, while the smaller porcelain bottle is the antidote."
Lin Yi nodded, as long as they didn't get confused, it would be fine.
But when I think about them being highly poisonous, I feel bad.
"Let's continue to install the rest."
Outside the military camp.
Many soldiers gathered under a high platform.
There were two prisoners on the stage.
Que Yu shouted to the soldiers: "We have mastered the enemy's poison."
The soldiers under the high platform were unmoved, obviously not believing this rhetoric.
Once their comrades were hit by arrows, they would have difficulty breathing and die suddenly.
The last battle lasted for six consecutive days.
If you really master the enemy's poison, will the other party be so arrogant?
Will General Han die?
The soldiers' disbelief was written on their faces.
Que Yu stood aside, filled with disbelief.
Qin Shuihan naturally knew what everyone was thinking, and he nodded confidently to Que Yu.
Que Yu shouted loudly: "Soldiers, you can see clearly. This is poison, and this is the antidote."
He took the two arrows handed to him by the deputy general, took one arrow and dipped it into a porcelain vase coated with vermilion paint.
The tip of the arrow was coated with a layer of white liquid.
Que Yu glanced at Qin Shuihan again.
Is this the poison used by the Southern Xinjiang Kingdom to seal the throat when it sees blood?
He thought of General Han, the way he died was shocking.
Everyone's eyes fell on the poisonous arrow.
The two prisoners stared at the poisonous arrows intently.
Is it really a case of blood sealing one's throat?
This milky white liquid really looks like the poison they used.
Has the secret been revealed?
But they had never heard of an antidote to the poison.
Que Yu felt a little nervous, but without hesitation, he quickly stabbed the arms of the two prisoners.
The two prisoners' eyes widened.
The arrow pierced the arm, but it didn't hurt much.
They looked at each other, still not believing that Qin had also found out the poison.
After all, this was a poison they discovered by accident, and they issued a ban not to spread it.
Unfortunately, before they could think about it, they both had difficulty breathing after a while.
The guarding soldiers let them go.
The two prisoners fell to the ground and struggled.
Que Yu was shocked. This look was indeed similar to General Han's before he died.
He immediately applied the antidote to the wound of one of them.
There was silence under the high platform, and all the soldiers held their breath.
It's this poison!
But is there really an antidote?
Qin Shuihan and Qin Yi looked at each other and raised the corners of their mouths calmly.
Bai Weizhen looked at the two prisoners in front of him with interest.
Although he followed Qin Shuihan and his party to repel Duanmu Yangrui, he also knew that the biggest weapon in Southern Xinjiang was the terrifying ability to seal one's throat at the sight of blood.
But what kind of poison it is, he doesn't know.
Watching the two prisoners slowly fall to the ground, their hands covering their necks, as if an invisible hand was strangling them.
However, the prisoner who had been smeared with the antidote seemed to be able to breathe, and he slowly lowered his struggling hands.
But the other one lost all movement and truly went to another world.
The death was extremely miserable.
His neck was covered with bloodstains, and his eyes were as big as a bell.
Bai Weizhen's eyes were opened, and she thought that the poison was really fast, no wonder everyone was so frightened, even if it didn't hit the vital point, they would die immediately.
The captive who had been smeared with the antidote finally regained consciousness.
Looking at his dead companions, he burst into tears.
"Take it down."
Que Yu was overjoyed when she saw the living prisoner crying.
King Han sincerely doesn’t bully me, that’s awesome!
Not only did they bring 30,000 elite troops, they also brought poisons and antidotes.
The soldiers under the high platform began to whisper, and all of them became high-spirited.
It seems that everything is true. It turns out that they really have mastered the enemy's poison and have an antidote.
This morale-boosting verification came to an end.
Looking at the corpse of the prisoner on the stage, Qin Yi couldn't help but ask: "Fifth brother, how did you come up with this idea? But it's enough to use a prisoner to verify the effect of poison and antidote. Why do you have to kill another prisoner?"
Qin Shuihan sneered.
Although prisoners of war could be used as bargaining chips, he did not hesitate to use two people for this verification.
"Do you still remember that small gathering at Huifeng Pavilion? When Yiyi tested the poison caused by charcoal fire, she used two chickens."
Qin Yi shook his head and suddenly realized.
Although he couldn't tell what was so subtle, as a verification, this method was indeed more perfect.
Fortunately, Lin Yi didn't hear what they said, otherwise she would have been furious.
How can humans and chickens be compared?
Qin Shuihan came to Lin Yi's barracks and saw her sitting on a chair in a daze out of boredom, so he immediately walked to her side.
"Yiyi, the war starts tomorrow. I can't accompany you these days. Just stay here and don't wander around."
Lin Yi hummed softly and grabbed his big hand on her shoulder.
What is supposed to come will come.
She knew that the war would start tomorrow, and she felt unspeakably worried.
"Shuihan, what do you think the purpose of the war is?"
Purpose?
Of course, Southern Xinjiang cannot be allowed to provoke Da Qin!
Qin Shuihan's face tightened. Isn't this obvious?
Lin Yi sighed, thought for a while and continued: "Shui Han, I think the purpose of the war is to plunder resources. The reason why the Southern Border State provokes the border should be because they don't have enough resources. They don't have a vast land like the Qin State. , there is no food, and there is not enough labor. For them, it is a struggle for survival, and for you-"
Seeing Qin Shuihan frowning, Lin Yi closed her mouth.
She didn't know if what she said was right, or whether she should continue.
"Yiyi, what do you think it is to me?"
"It seems to be a battle of dignity..."
Qin Shuihan was noncommittal and tasted Lin Yi's words carefully.
He thought of his gorgeous clothes and the daily eight delicacies.
However, he consciously cared for the people and followed the local customs when marching and fighting.
Suddenly he felt that Yiyi was more transparent than him.
Although he guessed that foreign countries were powerful in southern Xinjiang, he ignored the essential things.
After Lin Yi said this, Qin Shuihan seemed to have grasped Duanmu Yangrui's destiny.
He knew Lin Yi was smart, but he didn't expect her to be able to analyze war so well.
There is a hint of unwillingness and a hint of excitement.
Qin Shuihan chuckled and motioned for Lin Yi to continue.
Lin Yi saw him nodding to herself and felt relieved.
"I think there are only two possibilities left in the fight with the Southern Border Kingdom. One is to keep fighting until they are all annihilated. But in that case, the people of the Southern Border Kingdom will not be able to make a living. If there are unruly people in the poor and remote areas, it may not be possible. climate, but it will be a big threat to the people on the border of Qin. Another outcome is that Qin negotiates with them, allowing them to govern themselves and exchanging food with them, but I don’t know what they have worth in exchange. H…"
After saying that, Lin Yi lowered his head and laughed at himself.
How can war be such a simple thing?
"I just said it casually..."
Qin Shuihan looked into the distance in silence.
The soldiers were practicing, and there were sounds of hey and haha.
He recalled fighting Duanmu Yangrui a few years ago.
At that time, he was young and vigorous and did not allow other countries to enter the territory of Qin.
But now, although it has the same purpose, he really hasn't thought about how to deal with Southern Xinjiang in the future.
With his character, this time it was a fight to the death. He wanted to completely defeat Duanmu Yangrui so that they would not dare to provoke Qin.
But in order to survive, even if there is one Duanmu Yangrui, there is no guarantee that there will not be another Duanmu Yangrui to provoke him again.
The jungles in Southern Xinjiang are dense and difficult to conquer. As far as the entire terrain is concerned, there is indeed little food.
Qin Shuihan patted Lin Yi's head lovingly and pulled her into his arms.
He was suddenly very glad that she followed him and not only saved him, but also gave him a great inspiration.
"Yiyi, I'm going to discuss the strategy for tomorrow."
As he spoke, he happily leaned over and kissed her forehead, and emphasized: "Remember, don't run around, just wait for me in the barracks."
"I can go to the front to bandage the wounded..."
Lin Yi looked pleading. Although she rejected war, she was not afraid of it.
"No!"
Qin Shuihan's face darkened. The battlefield was not a child's play. He had to command the entire army and there was no way he could be distracted and protect her.
Looking at her grievance-yet-stubborn face, Qin Shuihan could only say gently: "Once the war starts, I will be responsible for commanding. I can't distract you to protect you, so just stay here, okay?"
Lin Yi pursed his lips, knowing that he was worried about himself.
She nodded and decided to wait in the barracks for his triumphant return.
Before leaving, Qin Shuihan was still a little worried.
He called Li Shang and Bi Yue in.
"The princess is not allowed to leave the barracks even half a step, otherwise we will question you!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi stamped her feet anxiously.
You don’t trust yourself so much!
"Shui Han, didn't I promise you not to run around? It's too much!"
