Chapter 141 Sima Hui tricks the sailors (4)
"Uncle, please forgive my nephew for speaking bluntly, it's not easy to do this!" Sima Yi shook his head lightly, "Although Jiangdong has [-] sailors, and the coach Zhou Yu is a master of water warfare. He is a good general, but as the saying goes: "If you kill one thousand enemies, you will lose eight hundred." It would be quite difficult for them to defeat and disintegrate Cao Cao's [-] Jingzhou navy in one fell swoop. Cao Jun only needs to grit his teeth and break through with all his strength. Zhou Yu's naval defense line takes advantage of the momentum to transport [-] troops to the south bank of the Yangtze River, and the situation in the east of the Yangtze River will definitely take a turn for the worse and become out of control."

Sima Hui's eyes gradually brightened: "That's right. This is exactly the purpose of Uncle Wei coming to meet you in person tonight. Uncle Wei just wants to tell you that on the one hand, we need to use Zhou Yu and the others to come from the outside. Weaken the sharpness and vigor of Cao Jun's navy; on the other hand, we must use other methods from within Cao Jun to disintegrate and disrupt Cao Jun's navy."

"Using other methods from within the Cao army to disrupt and disintegrate the Cao army's navy? This strategy is very good, but how can it be implemented?" Sima Yi opened his eyes wide, and suddenly saw the mysterious smile on Sima Hui's face. Then he asked, "Master Uncle, does he have some tricks up his sleeve?"

Sima Hui didn't answer immediately, but took out a silver pot from his arms, gently opened the lid, lit up in front of Sima Yi, and said slowly: "That's it - it can completely help us disrupt and disintegrate Cao Jun's navy... ..."

Under the bright candlelight, Sima Yi saw that the surface of the water at the mouth of the pot was rippling with a light blue luster, which looked extremely green and transparent.However, there seemed to be some red dust-like micro-worms faintly floating on the green and translucent pot of water.Those tiny worms writhed, jumped, ups and downs in all sorts of strange postures, exuding an unusually mysterious aura.

"What... what is this?" Sima Yi was very curious.

"This is the 'Blood Yin Gu' carefully bred by the barbarian Dong clan wizards in the southernmost part of Wuling County. Uncle Wei has been looking for them during this time." Sima Hui looked at the animals floating around like blood dregs. The microworms said quietly, "Don't look at them as small as dust, if they spread, they can easily cause a great plague, and destroy the fighting power of a hundred thousand troops!"

"What...what?" Sima Yi's face turned pale with shock, "Uncle...uncle, you want to use this... these Gu insects to deal with Cao...Cao Cao?"

"You're wrong—Uncle Wei wants to use them against Cao Cao's [-] Jingzhou navy, not Cao Cao himself and his [-] army infantry." Sima Hui's tone was as cold as ice, as if there was no ups and downs at all. , "You don't have to be too frightened. This 'Blood Yin Gu' itself is not a deadly poison. The combat capability of the Navy is enough."

"Master Uncle...Using poison to hurt people is against the peace of heaven, and will violate the taboo of yin and yang, ghosts and gods!" Beads of sweat dripped from Sima Yi's forehead and wet his clothes.

Sima Hui avoided his scorching gaze, quietly staring at the glittering green water surface in the silver pot, his tone was a little erratic: "Nephew Zhongda, do you still remember that Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei were in Changbanpo in September?" Didn’t Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, who pride themselves on benevolence and morality, finally push the more than [-] innocent people to the “Tiger and Leopard Cavalry” in order to place Cao Cao in a cruel and inhumane situation? Under the iron hoof and the butcher's knife? If you want to achieve a great ambition, you can't have the kindness of a woman!"

Hearing what he said, Sima Yi's eyes couldn't help but clenched tightly, and the tears in the corners of his eyes disappeared after a flash: "Yes - everything is arranged by my uncle."

"Don't worry, Uncle Wei will control the spread of the 'Blood Yin Gu' very carefully, so that they won't spread beyond control." Sima Hui turned his eyes and stared at Sima Yi's face. "No one is a bloodthirsty butcher. Uncle Wei only hopes to use this 'Blood Yin Gu' to deprive Cao Jun's navy of their combat capabilities."

"But...but, how... how can this extremely tiny Gu worm be controlled?" Sima Yi's face was full of horror. In his understanding, people can be controlled, and horses can be controlled. Even thought and consciousness can be controlled.But in the face of this unconscious, unconscious and pervasive little poisonous insect, how do you control it?
Sima Hui put down the silver pot on the table next to the couch, then waved to Niu Heng.

When Niu Heng saw it, he walked over holding a rather long red sandalwood box.

Sima Yi looked closely, and saw that the lid of the box was gently opened, and Sima Hui took out a large antique bottle from it.

The material of this ancient bottle is very strange, black and bright as ink, as solid as iron, as strong as rock.It has a wide top and a narrow bottom, as thick as a cow's leg, and it is nine inches high. The whole body is engraved with strange characters in the shape of turtles and snakes, which is extremely twisted and simple.The handle of the ancient bottle was carved in the shape of a horned dragon, with angry eyes and teeth, dancing beard and tail, vivid and lively.

"This is an ancient rare treasure, a peerless treasure - 'rhinoceros horn bottle'." Sima Hui saw the surprise in Sima Yi's eyes, and introduced, "It is the 'nemesis' of all pests and poisons in this world. Look... "

As he spoke, he poured some water containing "Blood Yin Gu" from the silver pot into the "rhinoceros horn bottle".There was only a slight sound of "chi", and in an instant, a faint fragrance rose from the "rhinoceros horn bottle" - Sima Yi looked intently, and saw that the water in the bottle gradually became colorless and transparent , that layer of shiny blue color gradually disappeared, and the "Blood Yin Gu" micro-worms on the water surface that were alive and kicking gradually became still, like lifeless dust and sand grains, stiff and motionless.

"This 'rhinoceros horn bottle' is specially reserved for you to restrain the epidemic poison for uncle." Sima Hui gently shook the water in the "rhinoceros horn bottle", watching the "blood yin worm" die silently , "All the water injected into this treasure bottle, after being purified by the ten thousand-year-old rhino horn, is a miracle medicine to restrain this 'blood yin gu'. You and Niu Jin can drink a cup and a half every day You can prevent all poisons and diseases from invading. In order to prevent Cao Cao's [-] Central Plains step riders from being infected by this "blood Yin Gu" epidemic poison, you can use this "rhinoceros horn bottle" to hold clean water. Every three to five days, we will take the time to sprinkle some around the camps quietly, so that no matter how powerful the 'Blood Yin Gu' is, it won't be easy to infect Cao Cao's army camps."

Sima Yi pondered for a while, and couldn't help showing hidden worry: "But, uncle, you know that my Sima family has placed 93 important 'dead soldiers' who are above centurions among the [-] Central Plains infantry. They are my The backbone of the Sima family lurking inside Cao Jun cannot be easily damaged."

When Sima Hui heard this, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he untied a big red gourd from his waist, held it in his palm and handed it over: "Zhongda is very worried. Uncle Wei has already taken precautions against this." In order to prevent them from being infected with the 'Blood Yin Gu' epidemic, Uncle specially refined more than 100 'Crane Heart Pills', which can cure all kinds of poisons. Let Niu Heng and Niu Jin take them later Issued to these 93 important 'dead men' by name to ensure their safety..."

Only then did Sima Yi's brows relax a little.He cast his eyes on the silver pot, and asked with some surprise: "Then, my uncle, how will you put this 'Blood Yin Gu' into Cao Cao's [-] sailors?"

"Oh, Zhongda doesn't know that this kind of 'blood yin Gu' has to be spread in the waters to injure people invisible. In other words, as long as people who come into contact with raw water or drink raw water may suffer Uncle Wei will spread these "blood yin Gu" to the two places of "Yunmengze" and "Dongting Lake" [-] miles east of Jiangling. Once Cao Cao's [-] sailors pass by there, they will definitely You will be infected with this kind of poison. At that time, Cao Cao's dream of 'Nanzheng Quansheng' will become a piece of cake."

Speaking of this, Sima Hui's brows were beaming with joy, and his excitement was beyond words, as if he was sure of winning, and he was overjoyed.

Sima Yi looked at the "Blood Yin Gu" micro-worms wriggling around in a strange and mysterious posture on the water surface of the silver pot, and there was still a trace of melancholy in his eyes: "Uncle, must we use this poison to defeat the enemy?" ? Can't we think of a better way to deprive the combat effectiveness of Cao Jun's navy?"

"Hey! Zhong Da is really a gentleman! But... But, in order to deprive the combat effectiveness of Cao Jun's navy, it seems that the only way to use the 'blood yin gu' epidemic poison is the most practical, fastest and most effective. Ah..." Sima Hui turned around slowly, raised his eyes to the boundless dark night outside the window, and there was a strong sense of desolation in his tone, "Alas... for my Sima family's sudden emergence, late attack, and turning the world around "The great cause of the future, and there are so many "women's benevolence"! All these evils and sins should be borne by Uncle Wei!"

Aggrieved Cai Mao

These few days, Cai Hao was quite restless. Originally, he and Kuai Yue persuaded Liu Cong to surrender the whole Jing Province to Cao Cao, thinking that he should get rich rewards from Cao Cao for this achievement.However, the series of events that followed surprised him again and again.

First of all, the veteran officials such as Xun You and Mao Jie in Cao Cao's shogunate have always despised Kuai Yue and Cai Mao's status as "surrendered ministers", and they secretly suppressed them. It was also put on hold, and it is still locked in the desk drawer of Mao Jie's Xicao Office, becoming a piece of waste paper.That's all for nothing - who made them the prime minister's favorites with real power!

Secondly, after Cai Mao and Kuai Yue instigated Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha County, to turn against him, assassinate Liu Pan, and surrender the city, instead of bringing much improvement to their current situation, they pushed them into a bigger situation. in embarrassment.Kuai Yue was summoned to Xudu out of thin air by the imperial court with a promotion order of "Marquis of Bailiting", which made Cai Mao feel like a loser and a think tank; then, his nephew and former master Liu Cong was suddenly transferred by Cao Cao. Shepherd for Qingzhou.At this point, no matter how stupid Cai Hao is, he can see that Cao Cao is completely "shuffling" the personnel structure in Jingzhou.Moreover, the local aristocratic forces in Jingzhou represented by himself and Kuai Yue have obviously been severely suppressed.
