Fakhr al-Din, who continued to move eastward, soon learned that there is no shamelessness, only more shamelessness.
The army passed through a canyon that was the only way to go. Fakhrdin carefully asked people to go up the high cliffs on both sides. They checked that there were no ambush before they dared to enter the canyon.
I just didn't expect that there was... in the canyon...
How to describe it? Fakhr al-Din has been a general for more than ten years and has been fighting for more than twenty years. He doesn't know how to describe the situation he is facing now.
The entire canyon was covered with a thin layer of leaves, but underneath it was all filth!
It felt like those Datang troops had been squatting in this canyon for three or four days.
Every step was a snap.
It was useless for the Arab soldiers to wear face towels. The touch and smell under their feet after taking a few steps made many Arab soldiers vomit directly.
"All troops, don't stop, charge over!"
Fakhr al-Din shouted and was almost overtaken by the smell.
Fortunately, many of them were cavalry. They held their noses and rushed out of the canyon.
But there were infantry behind, as well as the escorting supplies.
When the cart was pulled out of the canyon, it was covered with feces. Thinking that the grain pulled on the cart was today's lunch, I suddenly lost my appetite.
"Young Master Gou, you are so shameful!" Tang Ping looked at it from a distance and felt something strange.
This idea came from Master Gou. Fakhr al-Din's army was delayed for several days due to the treatment of the wounded, and the Tang Army was stationed in front for a few days.
Then according to what Gou Shaoqun said, everyone put what they pulled out into large wooden barrels, and then dumped them into the canyon together, covering the entire canyon.
"Don't worry about whether it's damaged or not, just tell me whether it's useful or not?" Gou Shaoqun pointed to the Arab army washing in the distance by a small river: "If you don't say anything else, they must have spent most of the day here. !”
Time is of the essence every day now. As long as Li Jing solves the battle to the east, they will win.
But if the other side invests another 200,000 new troops, even if Datang can win, it will inevitably pay a greater price.
Fortunately, there are no Arab troops in the entire Central Tianzhu, giving Tang Ping and the others sufficient strategic depth.
"Okay, let's go to the next point." Tang Ping looked at the map: "If they clean up here in the river before moving forward, they should arrive at this small lake at night, and they will most likely rest here. I asked Mr. Dog, will your second plan work?"
"Don't worry, trust me, you don't want to think about where I am from?" Li Shan nodded confidently.
"Okay, let's go!"
Tang Ping and the others have always maintained a position more than ten miles in front of Fakhr al-Din's army, observing Fakhr al-Din's army through drones in the sky.
Therefore, almost every move of the other party is under their surveillance, and Fakhrdin is still unaware of it.
In the evening, Fakhrdin led his people to the small lake that Tang Ping and the others were talking about today.
It's like an oasis in the desert, a small lake in the middle of a plain.
Although the lake is not big, it is enough for everyone to replenish some drinking water and fetch water for cooking.
I didn't eat much at noon. I really couldn't eat thinking about the things on those carts.
But marching is still tiring after all, and I won’t be able to survive if I don’t eat this dinner.
The Arab army set up camp, defended themselves, and then began to eat.
Fakhr al-Din had just finished eating when a soldier not far away pointed to the top of his head and said: "General, above your head is... Allah!"
"Everyone, come quickly, Allah has appeared!"
Fakhr al-Din was furious and was about to ask the guards around him to teach him a lesson. The guards around him grabbed his hand and shouted: "General, be careful, the ship is going to sink. The ship is going to sink. Come quickly." People, come and protect the general!"
"What? The ship is going to sink somewhere? It's going to catch fire here. Give me some water. Hurry up and get water to put out the fire, or it will start burning."
If only one person was like this, Fakhrdin would think he was crazy, but now half of the people in the entire military camp started talking nonsense.
"What's...what's going on?"
Listening to these people, it seems that they all have hallucinations, but why do half of the people have all kinds of hallucinations?
"General, is there... something wrong with the water just now?"
One of the guards said doubtfully: "I remember that the general did not drink the water fetched here just now. The water I drank was also leftover, but many people drank the water from this lake."
He pointed at the guard who was tied up when he started saying that the ship was about to sink: "Ali also drank the water in this lake just now."
Fakhr al-Din felt very upset. There was something wrong with the water. Could it have anything to do with the Tang Army?
Could it be that the Tang army poisoned the water?
But there is a lot of water in this lake. How did they do it?
If not, it would be too much of a coincidence, right?
In fact, his guess was not wrong, but Tang Ping and the others did not poison them, but just treated them to some fungus soup.
Well, it’s not accurate to say mushroom soup.
Isn't this Gou Shaoqun's hometown in Yunnan? He encouraged Tang Ping to get some fungi. Tang Ping thought about it and went directly to the Daughter Kingdom to find Yangjin Ram.
Nowadays, the daughter country grows tobacco in the mountains, and it is not difficult to pick the mushrooms.
Tang Ping bought it at a high price, and the citizens of the Daughter Kingdom put down what they were doing and went up the mountain for several days, collecting a mountain-like pile of all kinds of fungi.
Tang Ping didn't care which of the fungi were edible and which ones were inedible, he squeezed out the juice and then added the juice to the small lake.
This lake water is like uncooked mushroom soup.
In Yunnan, if someone is poisoned after eating mushrooms, he will not admit that there is something wrong with the mushrooms, but will only tell you that it is because the mushrooms were not cooked.
So now half of the Arab army who drank raw water instead of boiled water drank the uncooked mushroom soup.
Then the soldiers of the Arab Empire began to see various villains.
To be honest, such a sinister trick, not to mention Fakhr al-Din, even famous generals of the Tang Dynasty like Duan Zhixuan were stunned for a moment.
The battle at this time had not yet reached the level of using biological and chemical weapons, and what Master Gou did was obviously over the top.
In other words, if you are not from Yunnan, you may not be able to think of such a damaging move.
More and more people are going crazy in the military camp. Fortunately, most of these people just have various hallucinations and are not aggressive.
So Fakhrdin also asked people to tie them up and control them, and then asked everyone to pour out all the water collected here.
