In fact, Tian Zan surrendered 25 states under his command (25 states!), which directly caused Wang Shichong's power to collapse instantly.

Although Tian Zan has not yet obtained a specific way to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, it is only at this time that he is ready to betray Wang Shichong.

……

Under the Hangu Pass, Luo Shixin, Zhang Shigui, Zhang Huaiwei, Duan Zhigan, Wei Wenzhong, Feng Li and other generals followed Chen Ying and led the army to line up under the Hangu Pass.Looking at the majestic Hangu Pass, Zhang Shigui said with a worried face, "This Hangu Pass is really hard to beat!"

Chen Ying laughed disapprovingly and said, "What a joke, Wang Renze still wants to fight down-to-earth when he meets me? There is no such thing."

Luo Shixin has been training for the past half a year, and he hasn't won a battle yet, but he is very depressed.Now Chen Ying transferred the left and right guards and the left and right siyu to transfer the cavalry of eighteen Yue cavalry regiments from the eighteen zhechong mansions to Luo Shixin and Zhang Shigui.

More than [-] cavalrymen, fully equipped with the equipment of hooked and sickle cavalry, used the combat method of Dingyuan army cavalry to carry out intense training.

Luo Shi's confidence had long been simmering with a monstrous fire: "General Chen, the general is willing to lead the Yue cavalry army to take the lead!"

Zhang Shigui also shouted: "Yes, yes, General Chen, Zheng Jun, bastards, they haven't seen the strength of our hooked and spear cavalry!"

Chen Ying raised his head, looked at the sky and said, "Hmph, I'm not crazy about attacking the city with cavalry."

Zhang Huaiwei smiled, and didn't take the credit.

But Duan Zhigan is not the same, he is really serious now.Now his younger brother follows Li Shimin, and is officially a Zhongwu General on the fourth rank, one level higher than him.If he can't get a head start, can't be promoted, and is overwhelmed by his younger brother, he will not even have the face to go back during the New Year: "General, the last general...the last general must take the lead!"

Seeing this scene, An Xing was overjoyed: "The military spirit is available!"

Standing at the head of Hangu Pass, Wang Renze couldn't hear clearly.I saw the cheers of the soldiers of the Tang army like thunder, and the kerosene prepared on the city wall was shaken to the point of microwave.

Wang Renze frowned: "The morale of the Tang army is like a rainbow, this battle is not easy!"

Cui Binyou said helplessly: "The northwest wind is blowing now, no matter the wind direction, climate or season, it is very beneficial to the Tang army. Now that the northwest wind blows, as long as Chen Ying lights a few bonfires under the city, and then rises With thick smoke, there is no way for people to stand on our city walls..."

Speaking of this, Cui Binyou really couldn't continue.

Wang Renze no longer knew what to say about Cui Binyou, his crow's mouth was really sharp.

As soon as Cui Binyou's words fell, the soldiers of the Tang army under Hangu Pass had already started to make new movements. Thousands of soldiers, led by their respective captains, held bundles of dry firewood and placed them on both sides of the city wall. Standing still at the place of the arrow, these soldiers threw the dry firewood in their hands on the ground, and soon built a pile of dry firewood about [-] steps long and more than five feet high under the city of Hangu Pass.

Not only dry wood, but also black, sticky liquid poured on the dry wood.That's right, this kind of thing is asphalt, which is also the residue of refining kerosene, but it's a good thing, it emits a pungent smell when it burns, and it also produces huge thick smoke.

Of course, what Chen Ying asked people to put on the woodpile was not only asphalt, but many other things.

At this time, the firewood pile has become a garbage dump.Sulfur, aconitum, yellow nitrate, crotons, wolves, tung oil, arsenic, nux, and other sundries are all thrown on the dry wood pile.

After a while, the firewood pile was piled up a full foot.

Luo Shixin looked at the pile of firewood in front of him, and said inexplicably, "This is it, can you chew down Hangu Pass?"

"Haha!" Chen Ying laughed and said, "Is it hard to say now, let's try it and then we'll know?"

In fact, what Chen Ying took out was the earliest biochemical weapon in Chinese history.

In the "Wu Jing Zongyao" of the Northern Song Dynasty, a poisonous smoke ball was recorded, which mentioned in detail the raw materials and usage methods for making this poisonous smoke ball. The prescription of the poison smoke ball is: "The ball weighs five catties, and use sulfur Two, five liang of aconitum, 15 liang per catty of flame nitrate, five liang of croton, five liang of chamaejamas, two and a half tung oil, two and a half of small oil, five liang of charcoal powder, two and a half liang of asphalt, two and a half liang of arsenic, One liang of yellow wax, one liang of bamboo rut, one liang of hemp rut, pounded together into a ball, and threaded through it with a piece of hemp rope, one foot long and two feet long, weighing half a catty, which is used as a string. 14 liang of hemp skin, 12 liang of asphalt, [-] liang of yellow wax, [-] liang of yellow dan, half a catty of charcoal powder, smashed together and spread on the outside. If the gas is inhaled, the mouth and nose will bleed. The two things are mixed together Fire the cannons and kill the besiegers."

Although Chen Ying can create this kind of poisonous smoke ball, it is actually not difficult to guard against this primitive primary chemical weapon, because this kind of chemical weapon is not overbearing enough, and it will only cause harm to the human body when poisonous gas is inhaled.

However, it is actually very easy to guard against this kind of poisonous smoke. Just wet the towel and cover your mouth and nose to avoid being hurt by the poisonous gas.

Luo Shidao: "What if it doesn't work?"

Chen Yingdao: "Then let's change the game!"

Just as Wang Renze was in a hurry to evacuate the soldiers on the wall of Hangu Pass, Chen Ying gave the order: "Light it up!"

Dozens of soldiers, pointing torches, ran to this huge garbage dump.Then he threw the torch in his hand on the rubbish heap.

The garbage dump was immediately ignited by the torch, but the imaginary flame did not come out directly. The firewood pile was like a black dragon that had been chopped into dozens of sections. The thick smoke was like a roaring black dragon, and its claws and claws fluttered. To the soldiers on the wall of Hangu Pass.

Wang Ren watched these several black dragons roaring towards him, and realized something was wrong.

The ancient Chinese people were not stupid. They had already discovered that the higher they stood, the more they would be smoky.Wang Ren hastily ordered: "Get down!"

The soldiers of the Zheng army hurriedly lay down on the city wall.

But the city wall of Hangu Pass is as high as three feet and six feet, which is almost as high as a three-story building in later generations. With such a high distance, how low can it go if you lie down?

After a while, there was a hysterical coughing sound on the city wall.

"Cough...cough..."

This severe coughing sound spread quickly like a good plague.After a while, Zheng Jun soldiers on the entire city wall coughed heart-piercingly.

Wang Ren is alright, he has a handkerchief, and he can cover his mouth and nose with the handkerchief to block the attack of poisonous gas.

It's just that the ordinary soldiers didn't have such good luck. Many soldiers had already started to be poisoned, their faces were blue, and they had difficulty breathing. Some soldiers had already started coughing up blood when they coughed.

Some soldiers of the Zheng army began to fall into a coma. Wang Ren looked at the soldiers of the Zheng army around them, one by one fell on the city wall, struggling in pain. Wang Ren shouted at Chen Ying who was under the city wall: "Children Chen Ying, you are not well!" die……"

PS: There is something wrong with the cervical spine. I went for a massage at night, so the update is a bit late.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The first forty-eighth chapter breaks Hangu Pass in half an hour

"My eyes, my eyes are blind!"

"Help, help, I'm going to suffocate!"

Although Wang Renze covered his mouth and nose with his hands, the poisonous smoke was not sucked into his lungs, but he also looked very embarrassed, with tears and snot flowing from his nose.

On the city wall of Hangu Pass, the officers and men of the Zheng army were in disarray.The northwest wind was blowing gently, sending large strands of thick smoke to the city wall. Generals of the Zheng Army had neither experience nor equipment for anti-virus. There were shrill screams in my ears.

A wolfsbane smoke ball in the Northern Song Dynasty weighed only five catties. Chen Ying was lucky. The wall of wolfsbane smoke he made was at least [-] to [-] pieces of wolfsbane. There are more than [-] people, on average, each soldier of the Zheng army will enjoy the attack of seven or eight, or even ten wolf's poison smoke balls.

However, even in this situation, Wang Renze was also holding on.

There is no way, he has no way out.Behind Hangu Pass is Xin'an County, but Xin'an County is only more than 100 miles away from Luoyang. They have no danger to defend. will die worse.

Seeing a soldier of the Zheng army throwing down their weapons and gropingly fleeing down the city wall, Wang Ren ordered angrily: "Flee before the battle, chop with loud noise, chop with fear of the enemy..."

The guards who faithfully carried out Wang Renze's order would have experienced a lot of hard work, but they didn't expect that there were very few soldiers of the Zheng army who ran from under the city wall.

In fact, wolf poison smoke will not only make Zheng Jun soldiers runny noses, tears, and poison their lungs, but also paralyze their nerves. These Zheng Jun soldiers don't want to escape, but their hands and feet simply don't obey them. The greatest sorrow is to lie there waiting to die.

But now, most of the more than [-] soldiers of the Zheng Army are like this. They are crying, struggling, and struggling, but to no avail.

Finally, the poisonous smoke under the city wall began to slowly disappear.Wang Renze was surprised to find that the soldiers of the Tang Army began to attack with the ladders. Each of these soldiers of the Tang Army wore a white scarf hood on their heads.Cover your mouth, nose and eyes.

Langbayan doesn't recognize people, it not only hurts the enemy, but also hurts itself.Therefore, Chen Ying had to ask someone to fetch white silk cloth, and made a simple face mask with five layers of white silk cloth and charcoal powder. However, wolf poison smoke not only hurt the lungs, but also burned the eyes. In the case of the case, there is only thin silk like a cicada's wing coated with isinglass and made into the style of glasses.
