Prosperous Tang Soul

Chapter 129
Li Er's words are full of confidence, obviously he has already developed a strong interest in the method of killing people with poison.

You know, poisonous killings have never stopped since ancient times, but the difference is that the former is very difficult to obtain because of the special nature of poisons, so the cost is quite high. , so it is also a loss for the poisoner.

Since the birth of pesticides, this means that poisons can actually be mass-produced, and Li Er also heard another meaning from Zhang Yi and Sun Simiao's words, that is, the cost seems to be quite low.

In his opinion, since the cost can be effectively controlled and it can be mass-produced, it is obviously more cost-effective to use poison to kill people than to use Datang soldiers to fight with their lives.

After all, after the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, in fact, the population of the Tang Dynasty is simply stretched. Not only the army needs people, but also farming, business and even many other places need a large number of people.

But the population is not like crops, which can be harvested once and matured next year. It starts from the birth of a baby, and it takes a full 16 years if a man in the Tang Dynasty is 16 years old.

However, even so, natural disasters, man-made disasters, illnesses and many other reasons in the past 16 years may cause this child to die halfway, so for Datang, every male is a huge fortune.

Zhang Yi naturally cleared Li Er's thoughts very much. Since the enemy can be defeated more easily and without any casualties, there is naturally no merit in a war that uses human life.

In all honesty, if Zhang Yi felt that he would probably think the same way from Li Er's point of view, then putting Sun Simiao under house arrest seemed logical.

As the so-called small amount is not a gentleman, he is not poisonous and not a husband, and he can decisively do such a thing. Although in Zhang Yi's view, Li Er's personal morality is at a disadvantage, but it has to be said that he has the decisiveness and courage that an emperor must possess. wise.The most important thing is that Li Er can always grasp the key points and use them to the extreme according to his own advantage!

"Your Majesty, let alone whether we can use pesticides to produce a large amount of poison enough to kill thousands or even tens of thousands of people. Even if we can, have you ever thought that others will use the same method to deal with us?" Zhang Yi looked serious, and said sincerely to Li Er: "Since there have been wars in history, in fact, we have only followed a relatively open and aboveboard way of fighting.

For example, in the earliest battles, the main battle was to rely on the bravery of the general. At that time, there was a name called fighting general. As long as the general who fought won, the morale would be high, otherwise, the morale would be low. Such a contest between the generals is enough Affect the outcome of the battle! "

"That's right, the fighting style of generals in the Spring and Autumn Period is indeed the mainstream!" Li Er nodded, approving Zhang Yi's words, and then said: "However, at the end of the development of Douhan, this fighting style with generals as the core will be It has been gradually replaced by ingenuity, such as borrowing arrows from straw boats and planning from an empty city. Although generals still have a certain advantage at this time, in fact, the use of wisdom and strategy has quietly changed the pattern of battle.

Zhang Yi, since the ancients were able to innovate, why can't I?You said that the enemy can also use poison to fight, I disagree with this!My Imperial Hospital can be said to be a collection of good doctors from all over the world. Even if there are strange people like Sun Simiao, it is just an exception. If you want to reach the level of my Tang Dynasty, no matter what country or tribe, I will fight or not! "

The sonorous and forceful words Li Er said, not only from the evolution of fighting methods, but even the analysis of the national strength struggle, this undoubtedly made Zhang Yi applaud almost on the spot.

This is the most flexible use of knowing yourself and the enemy in the art of war!As far as this is concerned, Li Er's reputation as a military strategist is absolutely worthy of his name!
But Zhang Yi immediately retorted: "Your Majesty, you said that other countries are now impossible and unable to surpass Datang in the development of poisons. I agree with this very much, but have you thought about another possibility?" Zhang Yi's expression became more cautious, and he looked around carefully, until he saw that there was no one in the room, then lowered his voice and said to Li Er: "Are you afraid of the sore or the plague?"

"They dare?" Li Er was startled, and the words came out immediately.

But what followed was a lifeless silence.

Li Er is very clear that no matter what stage the war develops, it actually follows a rule, that is, the rule of putting people first.This sentence may be very ridiculous to say, but in fact it is true.

Usually when the two sides fight, no matter the outcome, there will be a period of time for each side to collect the corpses of the sergeants of their respective camps. In addition to respecting the dead, the biggest reason is to prevent the possibility of plague.

The use of poison to kill the enemy is undoubtedly setting a precedent. If someone or a country dares to do this, it is conceivable that other countries will inevitably use the same or more vicious methods to achieve the goal of victory.

As Zhang Yi said, other countries, whether it is Goryeo, Tubo, or Turks, they do not have the relevant capabilities, and it is impossible to develop poisons that can be used in large quantities in combat, but they still have what the Tang Dynasty did not have. some strange infectious diseases.In fact, Lushang happened in Lingnan, which is in the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Although it has been many years, Lusou is still a pale existence in Lingnan until now.

Even if Lupus is not used, the enemy only needs to slaughter a cow and sheep in the water source on the border of Datang. As long as there is enough time, this low-cost plague will definitely cause countless deaths and injuries to Datang.

"Hey!"

After understanding this point, Li Er's originally confident expression immediately revealed a look of disappointment, and sighed: "It seems that I have not thought carefully, but Zhang Yi, I hope you will forget this matter, don't talk to me about it." Anyone mention it!"

"What's the matter?" Zhang Yi immediately looked at Li Er differently, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I was absent-minded just now, what did you say that I didn't hear you!"

"You boy, hahaha!" Li Eryi slapped Zhang Yi's shoulder, and then there was a smile on his face, and he said in a flash: "A few days ago, you asked me to read the epidemic prevention method that Yue Yi handed me. , Very good, I have already asked the state governments to strictly implement it, but since you have already thought of a way, why did you use the name of Mr. Sun? Could it be that you have a grudge against me?"
