The power of barbecue goes far beyond that!
That night, Anwuwei brought back two bandit soldiers. They knelt down directly in front of Qin Feng, crying one after another with runny noses and tears.
"Damn Uhri, forcing us to flee into the mountains. If we had a choice, who would be willing to run to this hellish place and occupy the mountain as king?"
"We will never dare to be enemies with the prince. It was all forced by Uhri."
"Please show mercy to your Majesty and let us live."
"As long as we leave this hellish place, we two brothers will disarm and return to the field, and we will no longer be soldiers."
As the saying goes, kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself.
On the battlefield, there has never been any burying the hatchet and magnanimity. As long as you step onto the battlefield, there are only two endings, either life or death.
Therefore, even if the two cry for father and mother and are heartbroken, they still cannot get any kindness and compassion from Qin Feng.
If Qin Feng's soldiers fall into the hands of the opponent, they will be tortured to the point of death.
Qin Feng did not give a direct order, but was subjected to eighteen kinds of torture, which was already the end of his kindness and righteousness.
"Shut up! It's so noisy at night that it makes people feel upset."
"You will answer whatever I ask. If you say one more word, your tongue will be cut out."
Feeling the cold chill emanating from Qin Feng, the two of them dared not make any noise. They lowered their heads and did not dare to let out any air.
Qin Feng did not hesitate and asked directly: "How many people are there around Uhli now?"
The leaner of the two, in order to survive, did not dare to hide anything, and quickly replied: "About five hundred people..."
Qin Feng raised his eyebrows: "I don't want to hear a rough estimate! Give me an accurate number!"
The lean bandit soldier was trembling with fear. He tried his best to recall it, and then stammered in reply: "Back to... to King Qin, I am just a pawn. I don't know how many there are."
"A few days ago, I heard from Shangfeng that there were still more than 550 people. In the past few days, many people have fled or died of illness. Even if it is more than 500, it is not much. "
It is really difficult for a young pawn to accurately tell the number of troops.
However, the figures given by the other party are generally consistent with Qin Feng's speculation.
These five hundred people are the last of Uhri's family. Although they are all a mob, they are still a big threat in the event of a fight.
Qin Feng doesn't like to fight against a large number with a small number. Even if he has an absolute advantage in the quality of his soldiers, as long as he can defeat a small number with a large number, Qin Feng will never rashly increase the difficulty for himself.
Five hundred people is still too many, so Uhri must continue to reduce the number of people.
It has been some time since we entered the mountains. The trees have sprouted and the temperature is rising. In another half month, the Qilian Mountains will become hot and humid. By then, various diseases will be rampant, enough for Uhli to drink a pot.
but……
This method is too long. Just waiting for the temperature and humidity to rise will take half a month. Even if the bandit soldiers under Uhli's command get sick, it will take a long time from the infection to the onset of the disease and then to the reduction of the number of soldiers!
Naturally, Qin Feng cannot spend too long with Uhli here.
Since the terrain has almost been detected on the way, it is simply unrealistic to explore the remaining areas in a short time. People must be stationed in the mountains for a long time and gradually explore to draw a complete map of the Qilian Mountains.
Qin Feng immediately changed his mind and prepared for a quick battle with Uhli.
Looking at the two defecting bandit soldiers in front of him, Qin Feng changed the topic and said seriously: "I only ask you one question, do you want to die or live?"
The two were so surprised that they hurriedly replied: "I want to live!"
After receiving a positive answer, Qin Feng asked directly without being verbose: "Is your drinking water distributed and carried, or is it managed centrally?"
When this matter was brought up, the two bandits became indignant and furious.
"Uhli, this bastard, has firm control over both food and drinking water."
"Each of us can only drink three times of water a day, one sip each in the morning, noon and evening. It's just enough to moisten our throats, but it doesn't quench our thirst at all."
Qin Feng nodded, this news coincided with his speculation.
Due to the shortage of supplies, Ukhli must adopt a centralized rationing system of supplies to maintain the operation of the army.
If important drinking water were distributed to soldiers, they would probably be all drank up in a few days.
You must know that they have been retreating, and they are still crossing mountains and ridges, which consumes a lot of physical strength and water. If they do not save the consumption of drinking water, Uhri's team will collapse within a few days.
Since Uhri strictly controlled supplies, the traitors did not know how much water was left in the team.
This is also consistent with expectations. The less soldiers know about the military situation, the less likely they are to mutiny.
However, in Qin Feng's view, Uhli was almost out of ammunition and food, and the remaining supplies could only barely support them to reach the next supply reserve point.
As long as something goes wrong, it will be fatal for Uhri.
Since Qin Feng did not carry poison, he could not poison the water directly. In addition, the important drinking water was bound to be strictly guarded, and it was unrealistic to destroy the water tank.
Qin Fengji took it to heart and directly ordered the two of them: "Go back and find a way to throw some dirt into the water tank."
"Feces, urine, and feces can be used. In short, these dirt must be dissolved in water and cannot be purified by precipitation."
Qin Feng specially reminded not to throw soil into it. This is meaningless, because as long as the water is still for a long time, the soil will sink to the bottom, which will not affect drinking at all.
"After the matter is completed, you two come back to me. Not only will I leave you a way to survive, but I will also reward each of you with five taels of silver."
Hearing this, the two of them were overjoyed and immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowing like pounding garlic.
The next night, the two returned to the team. Although they were interrogated and suspected, the two were very stubborn. It was because of physical fatigue that they accidentally got separated from the large team.
Since all the bandit soldiers were in extremely depressed mood and full of pessimism about their future, no one took these two deserters too seriously.
After returning to the team and lurking low-key for a day, the two quietly approached the water tank that night.
Although it was said to be "strictly guarded", the people in the mountains were so dark that they did not dare to light a bonfire. In addition, it was late at night and the guards had already fallen asleep.
The two arrived at the water tank without any danger, threw the cloth strips they had prepared in advance into the water tank one by one, and then turned around and left.
These strips of cloth have all been soaked in dung juice, making them easy to carry but also smelly.
As the cloth strips were thrown into the water, the remaining three boxes of drinking water were all contaminated.
When the guard responsible for distributing drinking water opened the lid of the water tank early the next morning, he was stunned on the spot.
