Soon, military orders came from above.

"The Ming army poisoned the water with arsenic and croton. The doctor said that sheep would not have diarrhea if they ate croton, but humans and horses would not. Therefore, next time you encounter a water source, you need to use mules and horses to test for poison. Remember this!"

With this military order, everyone believed it.

They reluctantly poured out the rice porridge in their bowls and began to look for water again.

There is water in the baggage, but that water will not be used easily and is only used for emergencies.

There are mountains for more than a hundred miles to the south of Dushibao. Although the main trunks of the nearby Longmenchuan and Dushishui have dried up, the other tributaries still have some water.

So, the Jiannu soldiers began to look for water in the mountains and forests.

Their speed moving south was forced to slow down.

Duoduo and Haoge sat in the empty room, staring at each other.

Duoduo sighed: "The Ming army was so cruel in clearing the countryside. Not only did they empty the house, they also cut off the water supply and poisoned the house."

According to the plan, he should march quickly to the Longmenwei area today.

The march is slowing down now, and if Dorgon finds out, he will punish us.

"Ah!" The ambitious Haoge was hit hard by this incident. He lay on the ground and sighed. Suddenly he remembered something and sat up straight. Duoduo: "Prince Yu, who is Yan Yingyuan? He can actually slow down our army's marching speed with a small water problem!"

"I don't know anything else. I only know that he was from northern Zhili and used to be a prefect in Jiangyin. Later, he was urgently transferred to Beijing by Chongzhen. Because of his great contribution in defending the city, he was appointed as the governor of Xuanfu and the right vice minister of the Ministry of War by Chongzhen." Duoduo stood up and walked out.

"This guy is good at defense!" Hauge reminded loudly.

"It doesn't matter, little Yan Yingyuan, I will tear him alive!"
