A Timely Wife

Chapter 355

In the past, Li Ruosong arranged for the bachelor of engineering to do one thing, to build a dam. There are rivers all over the sixteen countries in the south, but these rivers are just tributaries. The main road of the river is in the territory of Nanchu. In the past, in just one month, a majestic dam was built to cut off the river flowing to the sixteen countries in the south.

Since then, there has been a huge lake in Southern Chu, but the sixteen countries in the south have fallen into a huge panic because of the lack of water. The soldiers went to the territory of Southern Chu to blow up the dam, but no matter how many people they sent, the dam still stood there. On the contrary, the people they sent basically never returned and never heard from again.

The sixteen countries in the south also thought about buying a few military officers from Southern Chu and asking them to help blow up the dam, but these military officers would accept as much gold, silver and jewelry as they gave them. They helped to blow up the dam, and they began to find reasons, such as no time, too strict defense, too little funds for activities, etc. At first, the people sent by the sixteen countries in the south thought that these officers said It was true, and later they discovered that these military officers said so every time, and after accepting everything at the same time, the rulers of the sixteen countries in the south suddenly understood that these Southern Chu people were so shady that they took money. It is absolutely impossible for them to do things, and they are simply playing tricks on them.

The dam cannot be blown up, there is no way to send people, the officers cannot be fooled, and the way to bribe is not feasible. It is tantamount to dreaming to find another river to divert water in a short time. Even if there is such a river, Nanchu can Cutting off one river, they can cut off the second river, so this kind of behavior is a waste of time.

What scares the sixteen countries in the south the most is the speed at which the dam was built in Nanchu. The river flowing to the sixteen countries in the south is called the Chu River. It is the largest tributary of the Chu River and the main channel of the rivers in the sixteen countries in the south. The Chu River is about half as wide and deep as the Chu River. Before the dam is completed, if someone tells them that Nan Chu can build a dam that cuts off the Chu River, these country leaders can use demonic words to confuse the public. The opponent's head was chopped off.

As a result, Nanchu not only built the dam, but it only took one month. If it weren't for the spies they arranged in Pingnan Mansion, they would have watched the dam be built from scratch, and the dam After it was built, the rivers in their territory really dried up slowly, and they would never believe that this kind of thing really existed.

People can live without anything, but they can't live without water. After more than ten days without water, the sixteen countries in the south finally decided to surrender. They looked down on them, they just defeated Zhang Jiajun by relying on drugs, and Dahe praised them so much that there was nothing in the sky and earth, and they thought that Nanchu was already in their hands, and it was just a matter of accepting Nanchu It's a matter of minutes.

When the coalition forces were driven back, they didn't think that their fighting power was too weak or that the soldiers of Southern Chu were too strong. They just thought that the elites from all countries had not been dispatched, and those who were driven back were just a group of mud-legged people who were beaten. It is normal to be defeated, and it is abnormal to be like before.

Later, when Li Ruosong led his troops in pursuit but was trapped by them in the south and forced to enter Devil's Valley, they looked down on Nan Chu's combat effectiveness even more. This kind of thing is not difficult to cultivate, and they all left enough seeds in their hands, just burn them and plant them again. The more troublesome thing is that the fire was too big, and the ignited poppies were smelled by the surrounding people and soldiers. Many people were not able to get over it at that time, and many people became addicted directly, and fell ill after not smelling it for a day.

Li Ruosong didn't know what was used to burn it. The land in that valley is no longer planted with poppies, even weeds can't grow. It has been more than half a year, and the valley is still a barren piece of rocky land. Li Ruosong easily led the people. Running towards the windward side, these people in the downwind area can be regarded as suffering from blood mold, and it takes a lot of effort to plant poppies in another place. You have to cut down trees and clear the land, and you have to plow deeply, otherwise the roots of the trees and grass in the soil will be destroyed. They can't be dug out at all. Once they are allowed to bury in it, it won't take long for another forest to grow.

Originally, the warehouses in the southern part of the country were destroyed under the pretext of storing drugs. It doesn’t matter, there are still a lot of poppies growing in the fields, and you can make as many drugs as you want. Later, the poppy valley was burned down, and they didn’t As a big deal, I thought it was just some poppies, so I could just plant them again. It was a good plan, but it was a pity that Li Ruosong was so cruel that he not only burned the warehouse, but also burned the poppies, and destroyed the valley. Well, within two years, the idea of ​​growing poppies for potions had to be shelved.

To say that the person who hates Li Ruosong the most is really not the Dahe people, but the monarch of Anhe Kingdom. The valley was in his Anhe Kingdom, and there was no other place more suitable than here at the beginning, and because of the poppy seeds For the sake of Anhe Kingdom, more than a dozen other countries have asked for Anhe Kingdom, and the sixteen countries are faintly headed by him. In recent years, the monarch of Anhe Kingdom has even felt that he is the king of the south, because No matter what, other countries will come to ask him for his opinion. Basically, what he agrees to is implemented. If he disagrees, he will either be satisfied or simply shelved. In a few years, the south will definitely be unified, and when Southern Chu is conquered, his dream of unification will not only be a dream, but a reality.

However, Li Ruosong burned his dream of unification with only two fires, and even made many people in Anhe Kingdom and elite soldiers of the sixteen countries in the south addicted to opium poppy. An Heguo did it secretly, and the other [-] countries have arranged for the most elite soldiers to be stationed around the valley led by their most trusted generals. They have to guard against each other and contact each other. They live very close to each other. , and there are many mountains and forests in the upwind of the valley, but there is a basin in the downwind. These people all live in the basin, and they are harmed by the poppy smoke.

After this incident happened, the attention of the Sixteen Kingdoms shifted from Li Ruosong to the monarch of Anhe Kingdom. Chu's hopes have all been destroyed. The monarch of Anhe Kingdom is very busy. He has to investigate who leaked the news, apologize to other countries, appease the people of his own country, and deal with the opium poppy addiction. For these people, the monarch of Anhe Kingdom wished he could catch Li Ruosong immediately, and then execute him Lingchi. This was not enough to appease his hatred for Li Ruosong. He just wanted to eat his flesh, drink his blood, draw his His tendons, crushing his bones and ashes, have many and beautiful ideas, but in the end, he can only endure the humiliation and bear the burden to seek peace with Li Ruosong. The monarch of Anhe Kingdom died in his bedroom before he could go on the road. He was so angry that he died. When he died, his face was livid, his eyes were protruding, his teeth were clenched tightly, and he looked fierce. I don't know if Lord Yan will be frightened by his appearance after death.

That's why they couldn't kill Li Ruosong directly. It wasn't that they didn't want to, but they couldn't. It's just that it was very difficult to deal with the people and soldiers who were addicted, let alone arrange people to chase Li Ruosong and others. Everyone thought that Li Ruosong had committed the mistake of underestimating the enemy, and Li Ruosong did not explain it to anyone until later when the envoys for peace from the southern countries arrived at Nanjiang Mansion, they explained the cause and effect to the Southern Chu court. Ulala made it clear that everyone else thought that Li Ruosong was just a young ostentatious man, who was better at talking on paper than at leading troops in battle.

From the very beginning, Li Ruosong didn't intend to destroy the main force of the sixteen countries in the south. His goal was very clear, to destroy drugs and find poppy fields, so that the south would have no more energy to plant and produce such harmful plants in a short time. After Li Ruosong found out from the prisoners where the warehouse was and the valley where poppies were planted, he immediately ordered to divide into two teams, one took the prisoners to burn down the warehouse, and the other went straight to the valley where poppies were planted.

The reason why the sixteen countries in the south thought that Li Ruosong was going to destroy their elite troops and set up an ambush in the only valley was actually a very wonderful misunderstanding, because the elite troops of the sixteen countries were all concentrated in the poppy planting area. Near the valley, there is only one way in and out of that valley, such as passing through that pass, so they thought that Li Ruosong got the news that there were elite soldiers from sixteen countries here, and they looked down on the elite soldiers of these small countries, so they brought people to attack They, Li Ruosong really didn't think about it that way, he just wanted to destroy the poppy field.

In fact, when Li Ruosong realized that he was ambushed, he was also very surprised. Not to mention that his whereabouts were completely kept secret, but they advanced very fast. How could there be so many poppies in a small valley planted with poppies? If Li Ruosong hadn't been determined, he would have burned the poppy field with his teeth, and then retreated into the Devil's Valley along the mountains. It's hard to say what the situation is now. After all, Li Ruosong's status is there. Nanchu will never watch Li Ruosong fall into the enemy's hands. At that time, there are only two ways to go. Back to Li Ruosong and agree to various conditions, or Li Ruosong's life will stay in the south forever.
