Great Tang Southern Emperor

In fact, if dealing with poisonous insects, gasoline should be better, but firstly, Li Zhen did not bring much gasoline this time, and secondly, gasoline is used by Li Zhen for other purposes, which cannot be consumed for the time being. (Most poisonous insects can drill holes, ordinary flames can't deal with it, but flowing alcohol can flow into the hole).

But for Li Zhen's use of wine to deal with poisonous insects, some people really feel distressed and panic, such as Fang Yiai.

"It's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity that such a good wine was wasted like this, Your Highness, you should let me have a taste anyway." Smelling the smell of alcohol, Fang Yiai swallowed, While muttering.

He didn't like drinking very much at first, but since he joined the army, he has been polluted by those brash men in the army. Although he is not an alcoholic, seeing so much good wine being wasted is also painful. .

Li Zhen glanced at him and said with a smile: "I don't want to, but now there is nothing else to burn except wine. Just bear with it for a while. After a few days when we arrive in Yueshang, we can naturally have a good drink." .”

"That's the only way to go, it's a pity that there are so many good wines." Fang Yiai's saliva was still drooling: "Yue Chang probably doesn't have any good wine, if you want to drink this kind of wine, you can only meet with Rengui and the others You can drink it later."

Li Zhen smiled and said nothing, that's for sure, she is the only one who knows how to distill alcohol in this world - the rest of the wine at this time is not so much wine as alcoholic beverages, at most More than ten degrees, it's about the same as beer, and it's incomparable with your own wine.

After another hour, the poisonous insects were finally driven away, and Wang Can suddenly said with a serious face: "Your Highness, our loss has been counted."

Li Zhen's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly asked, "How about the loss?"

"Our loss is not big, the problem is that we have two brothers..." At this point, Wang Can couldn't continue.

Li Zhen closed her eyes in pain. Although Wang Can hadn't finished speaking, he already knew the result, and the two people were probably gone.

Ever since he entered the jungle, Li Zhen knew that this day would definitely come. It was basically impossible for 5000 people to pass through the jungle intact. He was already mentally prepared, but when this day really came, Still a little unacceptable.

"Damn it." Fang Yiai slammed his fist on the rock: "Don't let me know who did it, or I will tear them apart and avenge my brothers."

Li Zhen said coldly: "The enemy's target is all of us. Before we die, they will not stop. In other words, the enemy will definitely appear again. We have plenty of opportunities."

"Your Highness, we must avenge our brothers." Wang Can broke down in tears suddenly: "Those two brothers died...it's really...too miserable..."

"Don't worry, brothers will not die in vain." Li Zhen put his hand on his shoulder and said, "We will always keep this grudge in our hearts. As long as the enemy dares to appear again, then I will definitely not let them go."

"Now take me to see the brothers."

"Yes."

A simple cremation was held for the two young soldiers. Seeing the flames gradually engulfing those immature faces, Li Zhen suddenly doubted everything she had done—was it really right for her to do so?

These people were cultivated by themselves. They would have a better future, but because of their own ideals, they bet their young lives on this road...

Shaking her head and getting rid of these messy thoughts, Li Zhen turned her head, looked at those angry eyes, and suddenly had a sense of understanding—yes, no matter what she did was right or wrong , but since we are already on the way, let's give it a try. As for whether the result is success or failure, let God decide.

The road I choose, even if I kneel, I have to walk it.

What's more, the enemy has already bullied him. If he doesn't fight back, he will look a little too cowardly.

After the funeral, Li Zhen called the officers above the captain to hold a meeting.

At the meeting, the first thing Li Zhen did was to apologize: "First of all, this king has to admit his mistakes. It was this king's willful action that brought everyone into danger and even lost two brothers. This is my fault. mistake."

Fang Yiai immediately said: "Your Highness, what are you talking about? The enemy is using poisonous insects to attack. Even if we don't enter this valley, they still have to attack when they should attack. As long as the enemy is still there, this loss cannot be avoided no matter what. of."

Wang Can also said: "That's right, Your Highness doesn't need to feel guilty. We will feel sad when our brothers die, but we hate our enemies even more. What does this have to do with Your Highness?"

The brat also said: "Your Highness, don't blame yourself, just like what General Fang said, what should be lost is inevitable, and it has nothing to do with you, Your Highness."

"..." The rest of the people also tried to persuade them that this had nothing to do with Li Zhen, so naturally there was nothing wrong with it.

Li Zhen said gratefully: "Thank you for your understanding, then this matter is over, let's discuss the second matter."

"What's the matter with these poisonous insects?" Li Zhen looked at Wang Can: "If I remember correctly, we smoked realgar with realgar before we settled in the valley, but realgar has no effect on poisonous insects. How is it?"

Wang Can said with a face of shame: "The specific reason has not been found out yet, I only know that the enemy should be hiding in the distance and use sound to control these poisonous insects."

"Voice?" Li Zhen suddenly thought of Ouyang Feng, isn't Baituo Villa good at raising snakes?And the method they use to control the snakes is sound. Could it be a similar method?

"Yes, it's actually not uncommon to use voice to control animals." Wang Can said, "There are many performers in Chang'an from Tianzhu. They can use flutes to control cobras to dance in various beautiful dances. It's just a one-time control of so many. Poisonous insects, I have never heard of them."

"Since there is a way to control one poisonous insect, there is naturally a way to control many poisonous insects." Fang Yiai said: "Besides, I have observed that although these poisonous insects are driven away by humans, they are actually autonomous. It's not as precise as the Tianzhu people to control every movement, so it should be easier to think about it."

Speaking of this, the brat suddenly said thoughtfully: "Speaking of poisonous insects, the brothers below me told me about one thing."

Li Zhen looked at him: "What is it?"

"It was when your Highness played the Jujiang drum." The brat replied, "According to him, when the Jujiang drum was played, the reaction of those poisonous insects was obviously abnormal, but it was too chaotic at the time, and he didn't Determine if this is the reason for the gathering of general drums."

"That's it..." Li Zhen thought for a while, and said, "Anyway, this is a discovery after all. If the enemy comes again, we'll just try again."

"Yes." Wang Can immediately took out his notebook and wrote down what Li Zhen said.

Chapter 386 Arrangement

Chapter 159 Arrangement

"In addition, I actually have a little opinion on why poisonous insects are not afraid of realgar." Fang Yiai suddenly raised his hand and said, "The reason why realgar can kill poisonous insects is because realgar has a smell that poisonous insects hate, so smelling realgar It will recede after a while, but the effect of realgar is limited to annoying, if someone feeds poisonous insects a drug that can make them crazy, and then uses voice to force them, I believe it will not be difficult for poisonous insects to break through the blockade of realgar."

"I think so too. If someone can feed poisonous insects with stimulant medicine, it is not a problem to let poisonous insects ignore realgar." Li Zhen nodded. He knew that Fang Yiai's guess was correct. It can repel snakes because realgar contains sulfur, and sulfur has a pungent smell, which snakes and insects don't like.But if someone can excite the snakes and insects, and then use special music control, it will not be too simple to let the snakes and insects ignore the taste of realgar.

"That is to say, our method of using realgar to repel snakes has obvious loopholes, and we must find another more effective method."

"Leave this to us." Military medical officer Gu Mingzi said: "Actually, we have been doing research in this area recently, and we have already achieved some results. I believe that if we give us a while, we should be able to obtain more realgar than realgar." Effective snake repellent."

"Great, then I'll leave it to Mr. Gu." Li Zhen said happily: "Once the new snake repellent is successful, I will personally ask for credit for Mr. Gu."

The new snake repellent is too important, not only for the Boys' Army, but also for the future immigration work.

There are not many other things in Nanyang, but poisonous insects and snakes are everywhere. If there is no effective snake repellent, entering the jungle is really dead, so before entering the jungle, insect repellent is the top priority.

This is also the reason why Li Zhen said to ask for credit for Gu Mingzi, instead of rewarding him heavily - even Li Shimin attaches great importance to such a great achievement as the successful development of snake repellent medicine, and it is very likely that he will personally reward him.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Gu Mingzi looked delighted. If he could get the emperor's reward, it would be the highest honor for a doctor like him who was born as a commoner.

"You're welcome, Mr. Gu, you deserve it."

"Okay, let's leave it at that about the poisonous insects. Let's move on to the third thing. We were attacked by poisonous insects today, and many people were injured by poisonous insects. I'm afraid we can't continue on our way. We have to stay in this valley." Rest for one or two days during the middle of the day. And the defense work for these two days is the top priority."

After talking about the snake repellent, Li Zhen talked about the issue of defense again, and then turned her attention to Houzizi: "Monkey, I give you a task. You don’t have to undertake any work during these two days, and you have only one task, which is to protect our elephants so that none of them can go wrong.”

The monkey immediately patted his chest and said, "It's on my subordinates. If an elephant is lost, I'll take my own head on it."

"Your Highness is worried that someone will deal with the elephant?" Fang Yiai asked.

Li Zhen nodded and said: "That's right, with elephants, our marching speed will be greatly increased, and the enemy certainly doesn't want us to join Rengui and the others so soon, but they can't beat us head-on, so they want to delay our actions , they can only start from our mounts."

"It makes sense." Fang Yiai said to Hou Zi: "Monkey, you heard it too, your task is not light."

The monkey nodded and said: "Don't worry, General Fang. From now on, except for our death camp, no one is allowed to approach the elephants. Even if they are feeding, we must feed them ourselves. Please allow your subordinates to take a leave of absence for a while. Then go arrange the defense work."

"Well, you go. Then let's continue." After the monkey was allowed to leave, Li Zhen continued to preside over the meeting: "In addition to the mounts, our daily food and drink expenses must also be strictly inspected-especially water, Mr. Gu, water inspection I will leave it to your military medical battalion."
