    "Brother Rui, it stinks!" In the early morning, just after dawn, Lu Rui took the Cao family and Xiahou Ba to Bowangpo to investigate. Lu Rui was very interested in how Chen Dao escaped from Bowangpo.  interested.  "Well, Zhongquan, what's going on?" Lu Rui also covered his nose. Excrement can be seen everywhere in Bowangpo. Could it be that Liu Beijun defecated in the mountain road? This is incredible!  "Brother Rui, Ba doesn't know this either. Ba only knows that Liu Bei's army stored water in Bowang Slope, and then dug out the seal, and the water flowed into our north and south military camps along the terrain." General Xiahou Ba knew it himself.  Lu Rui was informed that what happened in Bowangpo was incredible.  So far, he has not come back to his senses.  "Water storage? Is there a river near this place?" "Yes, there is a White River less than three miles away from here. Our army is divided into two parts, the north and the south. They are stationed by the river to guard the mouth and tail of the valley!" "That's it!" Lu Rui clicked.  Nodding, Zhuge Liang probably took advantage of the terrain and introduced the water of the White River into Bowang Slope. Liu Bei's army in Bowang Slope did not build fortifications, but built two simple river embankments.  So is the feces all over the mountain road a coincidence, or is it Zhuge Liang's masterpiece?  "Zhong Quan, besides these feces, is there anything abnormal?" "Abnormal things?" Xiahou Ba touched his head and began to remember.  "Brother Rui, there is another thing. I wonder if it is abnormal." "What is it?" "In this mountain road, we also found a large number of newly made simple wooden barrels." "Simple wooden barrels?" "Not bad.  , These wooden barrels should be used by Liu Beijun to store excrement. There are still a lot of residues in them. " "Residues?" Lu Rui was stunned.  Liu Beijun is really at ease.  Actually made a wooden barrel to hold excrement?  All over the mountains and plains.  What can't be solved?  Could this be related to everything that happened to Xiahou Dun?  "Brother Rui, we'd better leave here to discuss. Such a stinky place makes me want to vomit. My mother said that I'm weak and can't smell stinky things all the time. Otherwise, I'll get sick!" Cao Chong pouted in dissatisfaction and asked Lu  Rui complained.  "Stink?"  Get ill?  Could it be that Zhuge Liang's plan?  Could it be that the horses in the army were infected with the disease for this reason?  Suddenly, a terrible idea formed in Lu Rui's mind.  Zhuge Liang deliberately placed these buckets of excrement in the mountain road.  Then the water of the White River is used to wash it out. When the feces meets the river water, it flows everywhere and stays in a certain area, where it is likely to produce germs. Is this Zhuge Liang's plan?  !  Thinking of this, Lu Rui took a breath. If that was really the case, then Zhuge Liang had launched an ancient biochemical war, although it might have been unintentional.  But its power is huge, if a plague occurs.  I'm afraid one hundred thousand, no!  Hundreds of thousands of Cao's troops will face a heavy blow.  "Brother Rui, let's go quickly. Let's discuss it back to the camp. It won't be too late to report the outcome of this matter until father comes." But Cao Chong couldn't stand it anymore and hurriedly pulled Lu Rui to leave.  Cao Cao is coming?  Cao Chong's unintentional words reminded Lu Rui that it was impossible to use this method to create plague. If Zhuge Liang knew about this method, he would not use it so quickly. He would at least wait for Cao Ang's backup army to arrive before using it. Such a lethality  Even bigger, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong will not miss this opportunity!  "That's it!" Lu Rui smiled. It seemed that Zhuge Liang used the excrement and did some tricks to make the horses in Xiahou Dun's army weak. This should be Zhuge Liang's real plan.  "Okay, Brother Chong, let's go, Zhong Quan, let's go see the horses!" Lu Rui took Cao Chong and left Bowangpo.  After returning to the military camp, Lu Rui took the Cao family members to the back camp, where the horses were.  As soon as we entered the military camp, a stench hit our nostrils again.  "Zhong Quan, what's going on?" Lu Rui was stunned for a moment. Cao Cao had strict military discipline and had very strict rules and regulations for the management of horses. The place where the horses were kept must be kept clean.  But as soon as Lu Rui entered the rear camp, he found horse feces everywhere, which was a serious violation of military regulations.  "Brother Rui, there is nothing Ba can do. Look, the horses are like this." Then, Xiahou Ba introduced the situation of the horses to Lu Rui. Since the water was released from Bowangpo, the horses have been urinating and defecating incessantly in the past few days.  Dehydrated.  My limbs are weak, let alone fighting on horseback.  "Oh?" After listening to Xiahou Ba's description, Lu Rui became more certain that Zhuge Liang's strategy was to paralyze Xiahou Dun's cavalry.  But Lu Rui really had no idea how to save these horses. During the Three Kingdoms period, there were no professional veterinarians at all. Some horse diseases relied on experienced veterans to treat them. ThisOn the other hand, even if Lu Rui is a time traveler, there is nothing he can do.  "Brother Rui, let's go quickly. The smell here doesn't smell good either!" Cao Chong asked about the stench, but couldn't bear it anymore and was about to pull Lu Rui out of the back camp.  "Brother Chong! Wait, let's take a look for you!" Lu Rui ignored Cao Chong's opinion and continued to inspect the back camp, hoping to find something.  "Brother Rui, don't you just want to know what disease these horses have? I know, go back to the camp quickly, I'll tell you!" Cao Chong couldn't bear the multiple blows of the stench, so he grabbed Lu Rui's sleeve and dragged him towards the military camp.  outside.  "What, do you know what kind of disease this is?" Lu Rui was stunned for a moment. Cao Chong actually knew something that he didn't even know?  "Brother Chong, don't talk nonsense!" Cao Pi scolded Cao Chong from the sidelines. Cao Chong was deeply loved by Cao Cao. He could be a bit naughty at ordinary times, but Cao Pi would never allow it when doing business.  "What nonsense am I talking about?" Cao Chong glared at Cao Pi with a look of dissatisfaction.  "Cang Shu, this is not the time to talk nonsense. If you lie, do you know the consequences?" Lu Rui was ordered to investigate. If Cao Chong lied because he couldn't stand the stench, then the consequences would be very serious. Cao Cao is in the law  There are no relatives in front of him. Of course, this refers to business matters.  "Brother Rui, of course I know. As long as you leave here, I promise to tell you the truth. If there is any lie, you will be punished by military law!" Cao Chong raised his head.  Express his determination to Lu Rui.  "Okay. In that case, just listen to Cang Shu and let's go back!" Lu Rui saw that Cao Chong didn't look like he was lying, so he gave it a try. After all, Cao Chong was a child prodigy, and he might really know the diseases that horses are infected with.  Even if not, Lu Rui can still take the opportunity to encourage Cao Chong, after all, Cao Chong's identity is the young master.  Can't be too casual.  Necessary warnings are still needed!  "Okay, Brother Rui!" Upon hearing this, Cao Chong happily followed Lu Rui and left the rear camp.  At this time, a strange Cao army was stationed in a plain area twenty miles north of Bai County. It was said that this army was strange. The strange thing was that there were more prisoners than soldiers.  This army was the army commanded by Liu Bei. Some of the soldiers put on the uniforms of Cao's army, while the rest of the soldiers were disguised as prisoners.  "See you, my lord!" Inside the military tent, Liu Bei was sitting on the throne.  Civil and military personnel were divided into left and right groups.  "Military advisor? Everything has been arranged?" Liu Bei was filled with joy when he saw Zhuge Liang.  A few days ago, they were still overwhelmed by Xiahou Dun's vanguard army, but now they actually jumped out of Cao Cao's encirclement. One hundred thousand Cao Cao's troops still foolishly tried to surround themselves in Xinye.  "Reporting to my lord, everything has been arranged. As long as we follow the plan, we will definitely arrive in Hebei in half a month. By then, my lord can reestablish his foundation." Zhuge Liang was also in high spirits. He did not expect that the journey north would be so smooth. Luoyang was ahead.  This area is actually a vacuum zone for Cao Jun. As long as you cross Luoyang, you will reach the bank of the Yellow River. After crossing the Yellow River, you can reach Hebei.  "Commander, can we really attack Mengjin Port with our disguises like this?" Guan Yu looked at Zhuge Liang doubtfully. Since Zhuge Liang rescued Chen Dao, the attitudes of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have changed a lot. At least there is no way to rescue them.  When Chen arrived, Zhuge Liang planned to rescue him, which shows that Zhuge Liang's strategy is indeed powerful.  "General Guan, don't worry. Ever since Liang decided to assist the lord, he has started planning a plan to go north. Today's Luoyang is no longer the Luoyang of the past. It is just an abandoned city. There are not many defenders in Mengjin Port. With our strength, we will definitely be able to break through Mengjin  Harbor and cross the Yellow River." Zhuge Liang smiled confidently, his plan had been brewing for a long time.  Today¡¯s Luoyang is no longer the capital of the Han Dynasty, but a depressed city.  Since Dong Zhuo's chaos and the burning of Luoyang, Luoyang has lost its prosperity. Now there are only some ruins left in Luoyang, and the remaining residents are only ten thousand households.  The surrounding defenses were also very empty.  Although Cao Cao issued an edict at the beginning of the year to rebuild the city of Luoyang, civilians from all over the country were unwilling to come to Luoyang to build the city. Cao Cao could only send rebels and enemy soldiers captured from various places to Luoyang as coolies to rebuild the city.  Zhuge Liang also used his plan to turn Liu Bei's soldiers into captured soldiers, passed through Luoyang's defense zone, and attacked Mengjin Port.  "Yes!" Guan Yu saw that Zhuge Liang was so confident, so he naturally didn't ask any more questions. After all, Zhuge Liang's performance since he came out of the mountain has indeed made Guan Yu respect him. Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong still have two skills.  "Cang Shu, tell me, what disease did our army's horses have? What's the reason? If you can't tell, don't blame me." As soon as he returned to the military tent, Lu Rui pulled Cao Chong in front of him.  , asked Cao Chong that Cao Chong was not allowed to mess around in military and political matters.  "Hey, Brother Rui, these are the books in your house, why did you ask me about them?Already?  Well, let me tell you  "Later, Cao Chong told Lu Rui his thoughts. It turns out that there is a kind of horse mosquito recorded in ancient books. This kind of horse mosquito is a kind of mosquito. In the southern region of Jingzhou, it likes to bite the bodies of horses most, and often bites them.  The original record of causing diarrhea and limb weakness in these horses was discovered by Zhao Tuo in the late Qin Dynasty when he was defending the Qin army from the south. This horse mosquito could quickly make the cavalry lose their combat effectiveness in a short period of time.  After Zhao Tuo became the king of Nanyue, he often used this method to deal with the Han army going south. Finally, a doctor discovered a way to treat this kind of horse mosquito, which was to pick an antidiarrheal grass in the south of Jingzhou.  Cured. ¡°Brother Chong, do you think our horses developed this disease after being bitten by horse mosquitoes?  "Lu Rui was stunned for a moment. Could it really be a swarm of mosquitoes that made the horses lose their fighting power? "Brother Rui, this is what is said in the books in your house. If you don't believe it, you can send someone back to Xudu to check. As for the southern part of Jingzhou,  I do have some laxatives on me. Doctor Hua in your house gave them to me, just to prevent me from being accustomed to the climate in the south.  "Cao Chong rolled his eyes, as if telling Lu Rui, Brother Rui, these are all things in your house, and you still ask about me? "Really?  Where are those antidiarrheal herbs?  "Lu Rui saw Cao Chong's look, and of course he knew what Cao Chong was thinking. There are many books in Lu Rui's house. In addition to those copied by the Cao family and other famous families, most of the others were written by Lu Rui.  The books obtained by sending Cao Jin to rob the tomb. Lu Rui doesn¡¯t like reading very much, but Cao Chong went to Lu Rui¡¯s house to read books all day long. This record should be found in the ancient book.  In the baggage, Brother Rui, you can send someone to try and boil the antidiarrheal grass into a decoction and give it to the horses. According to the book, the horses will regain their strength after seven days.  " "Okay, Zihuan, you and Cang Shu go and try antidiarrheal grass to see if it works!  " "No!  "Cao Pi raised his hand and took Cao Chong to get the anti-diarrheal grass. Soon, the results of the anti-diarrheal grass came out. After giving it to the horses, the horse's excretion was indeed stopped. It seems that after seven days, the anti-diarrheal grass will  Horses that have been treated with antidiarrheal grass will regain their strength. Cao Pi brought Cao Chong back to resume his life. Lu Rui quickly asked Cao Ang for instructions and sent people to the south of Jingzhou to purchase antidiarrheal grass. After all, 20,000 horses needed a lot of herbs.  After hearing Lu Rui¡¯s explanation, Cao Ang immediately sent someone to notify the generals stationed in Jiangdong to go to the south of Jingzhou to purchase herbs.  "At night, Lu Rui was alone in the military tent, thinking about the strategy set by Zhuge Liang in Bowangpo. "In folk legends and romances, Zhuge Liang is a military advisor who is as wise as a demon. In the past, Lu Rui didn't think so. According to the Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms,  According to the records, Zhuge Liang was an internal affairs strategist. As for Liu Bei's success, most of it was due to the suggestions of Pang Tong and Fazheng. Now, Zhuge Liang's performance has given Lu Rui a new view. Maybe Zhuge Liang.  He is the first person in the Three Kingdoms' internal affairs, but his strategy is not bad, and Zhuge Liang's myth-like legends may also have a basis in reality. Maybe Zhuge Liang can't control the wind and rain, but Zhuge Liang's talent may really be the best in the Three Kingdoms.  One, especially some practical knowledge. Judging from this battle, Zhuge Liang¡¯s strategy may have been underestimated. Is Zhuge Kongming a terrible opponent?
