Da Qin: At the age of six, I beat Qin Shihuang at the beginning

Chapter 100 The Essence of Miasma!Wang Jian is modest
"This... Doctor Qin, can this thing indicate the direction?"

Wang Jian was a little skeptical.

Qin Mu nodded affirmatively: "You can try it, no matter what direction you turn it, it will definitely return to the north-south direction in the end."

Wang Jian tried a few times at the side, and it really did what Qin Mu said!
This is also amazing!
A piece of ordinary iron ore, after being polished, can actually indicate the direction?

Qin Mu smiled slightly.

He specifically asked Zulong if the iron ore he discovered would absorb iron sand.

The answer is yes.

That means it's a magnetite!

Magnetite ore, with its own magnetism, is a natural compass raw material!
As long as the appropriate shape is selected and polished, it will have the characteristics of a compass.

Add another base and you have directions!
"Make a few more! These magnets are very fragile and will break easily if not stored properly!"

Qin Mu threw the compass aside, picked up a few long pieces of magnetite, and stuffed them into the hands of Zu Long and Wang Jian.

Wang Jian was stunned.

What is my identity?
Wu Chenghou!
Daqin's first-class nobleman!
Let me grind stones like a craftsman?

He turned his head and was about to complain to Zulong, but he was stunned!
With the ore in his hand, Zulong has already started to polish it!

Wang Jian was shocked, and the words he was going to say disappeared in an instant.

Let alone him, even the first emperor is working, so what right does he, Wang Jian, have to complain?
He shook his head secretly, and his understanding of Qin Mu was refreshed again.

This is a fierce man who dared to let the first emperor be a craftsman!

The point is, the first emperor is still obedient!
Horrible!

Soon, the three of them worked together and made more than a dozen compasses.

Qin Mu found a bag, packed the compass, and asked Zulong to take it back.

"With this, at least the army will not lose its way!"

Qin Mu said confidently: "Next, as long as the miasma problem is solved, the army will be safe and sound!"

He is confident, but Zu Long and Wang Jian are a little sad.

If those miasmas were so easy to deal with, Baiyue would have been trampled down by them long ago!

Qin Mu thought about it for a while, with a serious expression: "Father, do you know what miasma is?"

Zulong was stunned: "The miasma...is a kind of poisonous gas that is naturally produced in the land of Baiyue..."

"wrong!"

"The so-called miasma is not a natural poisonous gas!
In the land of Baiyue, there are lush grass and trees, and there are a lot of animals of all kinds!

The people of Baiyue don't know how to farm till now, they can survive only by collecting and hunting!

However, everything has a lifespan, and when the time comes, animals die and plants wither.

Hundreds of fields, daily, dead animals, withered plants, countless! "

Zu Long and Wang Jian nodded frequently when they heard the words.

The cycle of life and death, the principle of heaven and earth.

Great Qin and Baiyue are the same.

But in the land of Baiyue, there are lush trees and dense animals, which are naturally more than those in Daqin.

Qin Mu continued: "These dead animals and plants are slowly rotting in the wild.

The corpse gas produced by decay, gathered together, is miasma! "

Wang Jian couldn't help retorting: "There are also rotting animals and plants in Daqin, why is there no miasma?"

Qin Mu looked at him: "There is a Great Qin, but it only existed for a short time!

In the land of the Central Plains, every time there is a catastrophe, there must be a plague!

This plague is also caused by corpse gas, and actually belongs to the same source as miasma!

It's just that the terrain in the Central Plains is open, and after a little corpse aura is generated, it is often blown away quickly.

But in the valley of Baiyue, the air flow is not smooth, and the corpse's aura gathers for a long time, forming a miasma! "

Wang Jian was surprised.

This genius doctor Qin actually really knows the reason for the occurrence of miasma?
Moreover, what he said is well-founded, and it will not work if people don't believe it!
Qin Mu looked at them and said, "So, this miasma is usually found in the mountains and valleys.

After the army determines the direction, as long as they march along the high place, even if the miasma does not dissipate, it will be much relieved!
In this way, the dose of miasma-resistant drugs can be halved, and the support time can be doubled! "

Zulong clenched his fists and said excitedly: "In this way, our army of one hundred thousand people will have the hope of getting out of trouble!"

Wang Jian also smiled all over his face: "Now that we know the cause of the miasma, what capital does Baiyue have to fight against me?"

Qin Mu shook his head: "Although the threat of miasma has decreased, don't underestimate Baiyue!

Even without miasma, Baiyue still has the advantage of terrain!
Great Qin infantry are invincible in a decisive battle on the plain, but in this kind of mountainous terrain, be careful!
Moreover, if the army goes to a high place, it will inevitably expose its whereabouts. How to deal with the enemy's harassment must be prepared in advance! "

When Wang Jian heard this, he also agreed with it.

He was a little carried away just now, and he didn't realize it until Qin Mu reminded him!

Pride will be defeated!

As a leader, I have fought all my life, and I forgot all the art of war I learned!
It was only discovered by a six-year-old child's reminder!

"Your Majesty...Brother Zhao, you must record what Divine Doctor Qin said just now, and tell the vanguard general!
Knowing the method of breaking the miasma, even I can't help but underestimate Baiyue!
I didn't know my mistake until Divine Doctor Qin woke up the dreamer! "

Zu Long also nodded solemnly.

Even with his calm temperament, he couldn't help but underestimate Baiyue just now.

If it wasn't for Qin Mu's quick rebuttal, even he would have agreed with Wang Jian!

After Qin Mu finished speaking, he didn't want to keep them anymore: "With these, the vanguard army must know better than me how to get rid of the Baiyue army! Dad, the military plane must not be delayed, you should go back quickly!"

Zu Long and Wang Jian were not hypocritical, in fact, they were not allowed to be hypocritical, so they got into the carriage and returned to Xianyang.

Zulong, who returned to the main hall, did not delay at all, and directly handed over the compass to the cavalry.

Afterwards, Qin Mu told him how to deal with the miasma.

The cavalry was overjoyed.

He was once in a miasma.

Qin Mu's method was not deeply felt by the ministers present, but he was very clear about it!
The method His Majesty said, after thinking about it for a while, he knew that it was indeed effective!

Just as he was about to leave, he heard Zulong stop him.

The First Emperor pondered for a moment, took a pen and wrote a few words on the paper, and then handed it to him: "This letter must be handed over to the Vanguard General!"

What was written in the letter was nothing else but what Qin Mu said at the end about the advantages of the Baiyue army and the disadvantages of the Great Qin!

After all this was done, the cavalry left overnight.

The whole hall of civil and military ministers dispersed.

Zulong sits alone on the dragon chair.

The life and death of the [-] troops represented the result of the first confrontation between Daqin and Baiyue!

The army was born, the main force of the Qin army was not injured, and the winning rate naturally increased!
The death of the army, the [-] army is enough to shake the morale of the army, and the southern expedition to Baiyue has basically been declared a failure.

Now, he has done everything he can.

After that, we can only wait!

More than ten days later, one person and one rider entered Xianyang City like the wind.

Zulong called all civil and military officials into the palace.

The [-] vanguard army of the Great Qin Dynasty miraculously survived after being trapped in the miasma circle!
All congratulations.

Only Wang Jian looked in the direction of Qin Mu's Zhuangzi, with admiration in his eyes!
