Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

Chapter 586 Teaching Medicine
The Wuyue soldiers returned to the camp. Today, the number of casualties was counted, and another 6000 people were lost. Half of them were killed, and the other half were injured, divided into minor injuries and serious injuries.

There is still hope for minor injuries to continue to fight after bandaging, but those with serious injuries are likely to die of illness. Even if they are not critically ill, they survived, but they are missing arms and legs, and they have to be sent to the rear for resettlement, so they can no longer fight.

Shen Chengli convened a military council overnight and shared with Ding Deyu the strategy of how to steal Runzhou.

He said: "General Ding, there are inland rivers and Beijing-Hangzhou canals in Runzhou City. The water system is well developed. We can send a group of dead men who are proficient in diving and sneak into the city.

Ding Deyu asked, do you mean to send people to sneak into the city of Runzhou through the dark river, and then raid the city gate?

"That's right!" Shen Chengli replied: "That's exactly what I intended. In this case, we will have a chance of winning by catching everyone by surprise."

Ding Deyu stroked his short beard and asked: "This water attack strategy is indeed good, but how to implement it? Every link is very important. Once a mistake is made, those who may enter will be caught, and they will not be able to cooperate with outsiders." , the timing is also a problem.”

At this time, Jiao Jie, the first counselor beside Shen Chengli, said: "Two generals, my proposal is to send a navy to lurk in the waterway, go upstream, dive there and wait. Once the sluice is destroyed, enter it. In this way, the inside and the outside can cooperate, and the Tang army in Runzhou will be caught off guard."

Ding Deyu said: "In terms of waterways, the Song Army and the Tang Army should have been prepared, such as setting up guard posts and sluices on the river, how to cut them off? Opening the iron gates that weigh more than a thousand catties is a problem."

Jiao Jie cupped his hands and said: "This point has also been considered by my subordinates. If our soldiers want to pass through the waterway, the Qianjin sluice must be pulled open with eight horsepower. Therefore, we will attack the city at night, distract the Tang army, cover up the sound of the chains with sound, send people to fasten the iron chains, stretch the iron chains in the river, and then pass the horse-drawn carriages downstream Pull it, and pull the iron horse of the water gate open.

After listening to Ding Deyu, he felt that there was also a feasible opportunity, so he suggested that the three armies rest for two days before launching a night battle.

Shen Chengli nodded and agreed to do so.

Therefore, Wu Yuebing hung up the exemption card and planned to cease fighting for two days.

The next day, Su Chen saw that the Wu Yue soldiers did not attack the city, and there was no war today, so he focused his work on developing weapons and developing military medicine.

After two or three days, the number of applicants for military doctors has exceeded 800. After layers of screening, 300 people were left to enter the second round.

Su Chen sent someone to invite Liu Sijing, a doctor in Runzhou City, nicknamed Liu Miracle Doctor, he and Liu Sijing are still brothers. When Liu Sijing insisted on being a teacher, Su Chen proposed to accept apprentices on his behalf, and he became a brother relationship with Liu Sijing.

When the two met, they had a lot of emotion.

Liu Sijing said with emotion: "Brother is worthy of being the star of Wenqu. In just half a year, your talent and reputation have spread all over the country, which is admirable!"

Su Chen shook his head and said, "This is nothing.

Liu Sijing said again: "Brother, you are humble, you have even cured the strange illnesses of the empress and the prince. I have a close friend for many years who is the imperial doctor in the palace. The methods and methods used in human life, I can't help but praise Senior Brother Su. He can't wait to betroth his precious daughter to you."

Su Chen laughed loudly when he heard the words: "Then there is no need. Arranged marriages will not bring happiness. Besides, I have already made a marriage contract with the person I love, and there is more than one."

Liu Sijing smiled and said: "I understand, I understand, he is just joking, just mentioning it. With the name of Jiangzuo's number one talented scholar, there is really no need for others to be matchmakers."

Su Chen didn't continue to pick up this joke topic, but said straight to the point: "About military medical apprentices, I think this way. Due to time constraints, we can't pass on a lot of knowledge in detail, and focus on teaching basic rescue, bandaging, Disinfection, etc., can save the lives of soldiers as the top priority. As for digging deeper bones to take arrowheads, injuries to important parts, etc., Jun Chengshou doctor will treat them.

"These military medical apprentices are more like assistants and nurses, but as they become proficient in operation, we can regularly pass on some knowledge of herbs and know how to feel the pulse. Talented people will naturally be selected and will gradually become doctors. If some people have average understanding, they can also specialize in nursing care."

Liu Sijing nodded and said: "That's very good, I think it's feasible. Everything will be done according to Senior Brother Su's method. .

He also knew that Su Chen's status was very high, and he was also the supervisor of the army. His proposal was equivalent to the opinion of the military.

Liu Sijing naturally agreed, so the next step is to implement it.

Su Chen and Liu Sijing spent these two days in the military camp, teaching medicine to the three hundred apprentices.

What Su Chen said is easy to understand, unlike Liu Sijing who talked about some mysterious and mysterious five-element meridians, etc., Su Chen only talked about some human body structure, blood pressure, arteries and veins, bacteria anti-inflammatory, inflammation and fever, etc. These new words, explanations Afterwards, it is also easy to remember and easy to understand.

Although there are many new words and opinions here, even many old Chinese doctors and doctors in this era don't understand, but these apprentices are different, because they are a blank sheet of paper with different medical skills, so these military medical apprentices accepted Su Chen's ideas , There is no difficulty, thinking barriers, conflicts of ideas, etc.

Su Chen explained some first aid knowledge, such as heartbeat compression, artificial respiration, how to rescue and stop bleeding, bandaging and applying medicine, etc.

Because what he said was easy to understand, these military medical apprentices got started very quickly and it was easier for them to listen.

When Liu Sijing was giving lectures, he popularized more Chinese herbal medicine and meridian theory, which was more abstract and difficult; but he also added some common knowledge of traditional medicine to the apprentices.

There was no siege in the past two days, so Su Chen was given some time to teach the apprentices, and researched some burning materials with a pungent smell of wolf smoke.

When he returned to the mansion that night, Bai Susu came to the Su mansion to be a guest in person. When he saw Su Chen, he said with joy on his face: "Brother Chen, I have some good news for you. Several kinds of hemostatic medicines and anti-inflammatory medicines are all gone. Some have been mass-produced, and after tests on horses, cattle, cats and dogs, the results are very good.”

"Okay!" Su Shen took it over and smelled it carefully, and the smell was roughly the same.

Bai Susu suggested: "Brother Mingri Chen can take some of it to the military camp to try, is the effect obvious!"

"With it, we will reduce the fatality rate, which will be a great merit to the soldiers of the Tang army! Susu, thank you for your hard work this time."

Bai Susu smiled and said: "It's all Brother Chen's idea, and the prescription is for you. He just made it conveniently. Not only can he make money, but he can also gain a good reputation. I should be the one to thank you, Brother Chen."

Su Chen also smiled: "One family doesn't talk about two families. We don't need to thank each other."

When Bai Susu heard these words, her cheeks suddenly turned rosy.

She thought of her parents' urging marriage, and her grandfather's private conversations with him. They were reminding her intentionally or unintentionally that her marriage with Su Chen had to be renewed, and she could be Su Chen's wife with Jingjing.

Even if it's not a big house, it doesn't matter, as long as it's not a concubine, everyone can accept it.

In ancient times, there was a saying that once a wife is born and a wife is married twice, there is a saying of three wives and four concubines. Therefore, if Bai Susu marries Su Chen, she can guarantee a certain status and will not become a concubine.

Besides, some nobles will break the system of wives and concubines, and rank them in the order of the eldest wife, second wife and third wife. They are all wives, but there is only a distinction between concubine and concubine. With Su Chen's current talent and status, there may be more than one in the future. A wife, so if she married earlier, she might be ranked higher. This is what the elders of the Bai family told her.

Although it is somewhat unfair to women, in ancient times, the more powerful and status a person was, the more talented a person would inevitably be liked by many women, even Bai Susu, who was unparalleled in beauty and known as the number one beauty in Runzhou, It is also difficult to marry Su Chen and live a monogamous life.

Even if she was able to marry into the Su family, the other party would not dislike her status as a merchant's daughter, which is already considered high. If she pays more attention to the ranking of the second wife and second wife, it would be a bit too much, Bai Susu disdains to do that.

Moreover, Peng Jingjing is her best friend, and they are as close as sisters. After she and Su Chen divorced, Peng Qingqing took care of Su Chen for her. Bai Susu didn't have any complaints against Jingjing.Thanks to her, it is easier to talk about Bai Susu and Su Chen's re-engagement now.
