Chapter 178 The Battle of Mangzhou 5
Yingzhou City is separated from Mangzhou by two cities. Outside the city is an apricot grove with verdant fan leaves and shade. The 30 troops should have camped and adjusted on the spot. The leader of the team, Wang Duwei, may have changed on the northern front. Send people to take the unharmed 18 troops to Mangzhou first, and the remaining 12 troops to cultivate in situ.

At this moment, Captain Wang was sitting around the main camp tent with five military doctors.

"Military doctor, how is the situation now?"

The leading doctor, Meng Jun, saluted and said, "I'm reporting to the captain, the condition of most people is stable for the time being, but the disease of acclimatization to the soil and water will sometimes recur, and I dare not categorically say that nothing is wrong."

Wang Duwei had a sad face, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "... If we drag it on like this, we are all guilty of beheading! No matter what, let everyone rectify, and set off immediately after an hour!!"

The five military doctors bowed their heads helplessly, thinking, this is the only way to go
"Report—" A soldier hurriedly came to report outside the tent, "Captain! King Yi'an came with an imperial decree!!"

"!" Upon hearing this, Wang Duwei strode past, opened the tent and said in surprise, "King Yi'an?!!" Before he could think for a moment, he heard the sound of horseshoes not far away. !
"Drive! Drive! Huh—" Qi Ming, who was busy in the world, led Lu Jiu and Qi Yun to stop at the entrance and exit of the barracks!

Captain Wang hurriedly trotted out to greet him: "I've seen the lord before!"

"The captain listens to the decree!" Qi Ming dismounted majestically, and took the imperial decree from Lu Jiu.

All the people followed Captain Wang and knelt down one after another!
Qi Ming: "Your Majesty orders 30 reinforcements to arrive in Mangzhou as soon as possible! No delay!!"

Captain Wang respectfully accepted the imperial decree and said: "Humble post obeys the decree!!"

"Captain, please get up." Qi Ming took two steps forward, helped him up and asked, "How is the situation in the army?"

Seeing everyone standing up, Wang Duwei waved his hand and said: "My lord, please tell me something in the account!"

"Mr. Qi, pay attention to salute, don't run around." Qi Ming followed Wang Duwei and said calmly behind him.

Qi Yun lowered his head and glanced at the prince's back, and said respectfully: "Yes."

Lu Jiu followed behind Qi Ming, and after the group entered the main tent, he consciously guarded the tent.

"Please sir." A small soldier stepped forward to lead the way.

Qi Yun looked left and right, pretended to be generous, took three horses, and followed behind the soldier with a smile
"Sir, the stables are right in front of you. You must let the horses rest after running all the way!" Xiaobing pointed to the front.

Qi Yun brought the horses to the stables, and after the horses bowed their heads to graze, he looked sideways at the little soldier who had been looking down respectfully. Seeing that the other party was only sixteen or seventeen years old, he was so honest that he thought about how to open the conversation box. Unconsciously, he touched his ass with his left hand, which was almost torn apart. Hey!Take care! !
"Ouch." Qi Yun put his right hand on the horse's back, secretly plucked a strap of the saddle, and wailed softly, "Ouch. The road was bumpy. My ass."

Xiao Bing looked up, slightly nervous: "Sir! What's wrong with you?"

Qi Yun continued to wail: "Oh, don't mention it! This is the first time I've ridden a horse for so long. Saddle it, it's too hard!"

Seeing this, the soldier stepped forward to check the saddle belonging to Qi Yun, and found that one side of the saddle was not fastened, so he adjusted the saddle familiarly and said: "Mr. It’s not stable, that’s why Mr. is troubled.”

Knowing the truth well, Qi Yun lowered his head and slandered his own incompetence, and laughed: "Oh! Thank you, Lord Bing!!"

"Ah! The villain dare not!" Xiaobing hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "The prince respectfully calls you sir, and that is also the gentleman of the villain!! The villain's surname is Zhao."

"Oh, little soldier summoned." Qi Yun continued to laugh, "Hey! I have to set off again later, my ass is destined to bloom! I won't let anyone rest." After muttering, he continued to cry slightly , "Eh? Do you have to march so fast? The soldiers who are going out are really hard."

Xiao Zhao frowned and said: "Sir, our army's marching speed is not fast. Many people in the army are not acclimatized, and we have already wasted a lot of time!"

"Unacceptable?" Qi Yun was slightly surprised, touched himself and said, "Oh, my butt hurts so much, could I also be unacceptable?!"

"." Xiao Zhao said with a smirk, "Sir, those soldiers who are not acclimatized to the environment are all fatigued, dizzy, vomiting, and diarrhea. There is no butt pain like yours."

"No, no." Qi Yun waved his hands and said with an extremely uncomfortable expression on his face, "I have to let the military doctor see!! Where are the wounded soldiers placed?"

Xiao Zhao smiled helplessly and said, "Mister, please come with the villain."

Qi Yun followed Xiao Zhao to the camp of the wounded, not forgetting to twist his butt all the way, pretending to be in excruciating pain!After entering the camp, he saw a group of wounded lying on military beds weakly, some of them were still vomiting and groaning non-stop.
Qi Yun whispered to Xiao Zhao beside him, "Why are they so serious?"

Xiao Zhaowei said: "Yes, except for the troops in remote areas, these 30 troops came from all over the country. The troops from all walks of life rushed all the way. When they met in Tonghe City, they were exhausted. The brothers who couldn't keep up were weak first. Afterwards, the vomiting continued, good and bad! After coming out of Tonghe City, it was even worse! A large group of people began to feel unwell one after another, in addition to vomiting and diarrhea. In addition, they had to march, hey, they hadn’t fought yet, so they first fallen!"

"Tonghe City is separated from the capital by Jinzhou. Geographically, it is already considered the north." Qi Yun muttered, ".You said just now that after starting from Tonghe City, the acclimatization disease began to expand on a large scale?"

"Yeah!" Xiao Zhao nodded and said, "Out of Tonghe City, the sky is cold and the air is dry, and many southerners can't stand it and fell down a lot!!"

Qi Yun: "What about the northerners?"

Xiao Zhao recalled thinking for a while and said, "There are about [-] people in the north who are uncomfortable."

Qi Yun thought to himself, it really looks like the climate is not acclimatized. But 10,000+ people are uncomfortable because of this, is there really nothing strange about it?
"Xiao Zhao, take me to the military uniform department!"

"Huh?" Xiao Zhao asked tentatively with a confused look on his face, "Sir, aren't you waiting for a military doctor?"

"Ah" Qi Yun smiled reluctantly, dodging his eyes, "Well, I feel a little cold and want to borrow some clothes to keep out the cold first! Look at them! It's just that I can't get used to the alternation of cold and warm! I don't want to be like them and get sick all the time." After all, he shivered at the right time! !

Xiao Zhao smiled helplessly and said, "Mister, please come with the villain."

After the two arrived at the destination, Qi Yun checked the military uniforms carefully, and picked up one to change into. He found that the quality of the clothes was acceptable and there were no cut corners. Wearing the military uniforms, he walked around outside the tent twice, and after confirming that there was no problem, he twisted his buttocks again. , using a lame excuse to ask Xiao Zhao to take him around the camp
"Mister, please come with the villain." Except for the military aircraft, Xiao Zhao smiled helplessly, and looked around with Qi Yun
In the main tent, Qi Ming sipped tea while listening to Captain Wang's report.

"The situation in the army is generally like this." Wang Duwei looked at the prince's unhurried expression and said, "Prince, in your opinion, when is the best time for our army to start?"

Qi Ming took a sip of tea, and said calmly: "This king is only conveying the imperial edict, not supervising the army. The time to leave is determined by the captain of the king."

"." Hearing this, Wang Duwei looked at the five military doctors and saw that the other party lowered their heads even lower. He thought that resisting the decree was the most important thing, so he slapped the table and said, "There is no time to delay, we set off immediately!!"

Only a moment of silence responded to Captain Wang.
"No rush." ​​Qi Ming put down his teacup and poured a new cup of tea for each of the five military doctors.

"Don't dare to be humble!" Doctor Meng hurriedly took the teacup respectfully, and thanked him again and again, "Thank you, my lord."

The other four military doctors also followed suit and thanked them again and again! !
Qi Ming said politely: "A 30 army marched on the northern line. The journey is long and the task is arduous. The five military doctors have worked hard!"

The military doctors didn't dare to say anything. Seeing the prince's more amiable appearance, the more trembling in his heart. Isn't it their responsibility that they failed to solve the disease of acclimatization? !

Qi Ming: "Doctor Meng, this king also knows a little bit about medical skills, why don't you tell me about the historical origin of the disease of acclimatization, any allusions and anecdotes?"

"This..." Military doctor Meng started to break out in a cold sweat, and hesitated for a long time without saying anything.
"There's no rush, you can think about it slowly~" Qi Ming said with a gentle smile as usual.

Captain Wang unconsciously twisted his facial features, trying to figure out what King Yi'an was thinking, and thought, sure enough, His Majesty sent the second Highness with treacherous thoughts here, and it was definitely not a simple decree! !

"Oops. My ass, my legs are almost not mine anymore." An hour passed, and Qi Yun walked around the huge main area of ​​the camp with his buttocks on his back! !Checked the grain storehouse, medicinal material storehouse, fire place, individual soldiers' rest camps, etc., and there was nothing wrong with it.
"Sir! You..." Xiao Zhao supported the other party, quickly glanced at Mr.'s butt, then quickly looked away, and said embarrassedly, "You are not feeling well. Stop running around!"

"Ouch." Qi Yun wailed, thinking, you think I think so!Looking up, he couldn't help being stunned, "Where is this place?" The two wandered around to a flat ground, and what Qi Yun saw were ten cows! !

"Ah~ this is a cow from Tonghe City!" Xiao Zhao smiled happily, pointing to dozens of large buckets in another place, "In order to comfort the soldiers, the people of Tonghe City volunteered to donate milk, and the city order ordered people to collect it. It was sent to the army! That’s cow’s milk! It’s very rare!!” Then he murmured to himself, “Unfortunately, villains don’t like to drink it, so I gave Dachen the part that I have no luck with.

"Cow's milk?" Qi Yun's attention was all on the cow's milk, he looked left at the cow, right at the stored milk, grabbed the other person's shoulder and said in surprise, "All soldiers get a share?!"

"Yes!" Little Zhao Huishen continued, "But only when in Tonghe City, each person can get a cup of milk. Later, the demand was too great, and the city order ordered people to buy these ten cows! Go with the army !! After two days, there is not much milk left. The milk production of the ten cows is too little. Once today is over, everyone can only take turns to receive milk.”

"Heh!" Qi Yun grinned darkly, and said proudly, "Sure enough, the emperor pays off! It can be regarded as figured out!!"

"Huh?" Xiao Zhao looked at the other party with a puzzled face, tilted his head unconsciously and repeated, "Got it?"

"Aha!" Qi Yun grabbed the opponent's shoulder and shook vigorously, "You have done a good job! Xiao Zhao soldiers! See you later!!" After finishing speaking, he ran away with a bang! !
Even if there is no external force to shake, Xiao Zhao is still dizzy, and the spiral circles in his eyes are still enlarged, he said vaguely: "What merit did the villain do?"

Qi Yun was running around with his butt twisted, his appearance was a bit funny, which caused the soldiers guarding him to cast strange glances, some serious soldiers didn't know Qi Yun, and even stopped him to ask a few words!Fortunately, the dizzy Xiao Zhao arrived in time to clear up the misunderstanding and let Qi Yun run all the way back to the main tent! !

"My lord!!" Qi Yun was out of breath and wanted to rush into the tent!Lu Jiu hastened to meet and help her!The two were firmly stopped by guarding soldiers! !
"Wang Duwei, let the king's people come in." Qi Ming said calmly.

Because the military doctors stumbled and said, Captain Wang had been embarrassed for almost an hour, and he was finally relieved, so he quickly asked someone to let him go!

"My lord!" Qi Yun broke away from Lu Jiu, stepped into the tent and hurriedly said, "I know! Why do so many people have symptoms of acclimatization!!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, except for Qi Ming! !

Doctor Meng, who had been kneeling on the ground, was very curious and asked, "What did you find, sir?"

Qi Yun glanced at the prince, saw that the other party was also listening, and then said: "I found out that there is cow's milk in the army! Cow's milk is a hair product, and it can cause gastrointestinal discomfort under certain circumstances!"

Wang Duwei frowned and asked in doubt: "Stomach discomfort?"

Qi Yun: "Not only that! Cow's milk can also cause symptoms of heat stroke! When the seasons change suddenly and cold evil enters the body, it is taboo to eat this product."

"." Even Qi Ming, who has a little understanding of medical theory, is more and more puzzled by this, "What does this have to do with acclimatization?"

The military doctors kneeling and leaning over also cast curious eyes!

Qi Yun explained: "The so-called heatstroke is the discomfort caused by the inability to dissipate the heat in the body, such as dizziness, vomiting, diarrhea and fatigue. When encountering cold evil, it means that the body that has not adapted to the climate suddenly encounters cold air. It will close the sweat pores! However, during the march, the body is still producing heat. At this time, the heat cannot be dissipated because the sweat pores are closed. Isn’t it the same as heatstroke! And the symptoms of these soldiers are very similar to the symptoms of heatstroke, oops! Eighty-nine Not far from ten!!"

Doctor Meng said with a puzzled look: "Sir, what you mean is that the soldiers didn't suffer from acclimatization, but heatstroke?!"

Qi Yun: "What they got was indeed acclimatization! Accompanied by cold evil entering the body, and heatstroke symptoms!! Originally, as long as the body is strong, this kind of situation will not happen frequently, but drinking milk catalyzed the outbreak of the disease!!"

"Absurd!" Military doctor Meng disagreed, "This is a rumor! Milk has high nutritional value! How could it be the culprit for acclimatization?!"

The other four military doctors nodded in agreement!

Hey. Wang Duwei thought to himself, it turned out that King Yi'an delayed them so that this gentleman had the opportunity and time to investigate the army alone!He glanced at Qi Yun, saluted and said: "My lord, what this gentleman said has no basis. Military doctors have practiced medicine for several years, how can they not know?"

"Why is there no basis?!" Qi Yun dissatisfied, "It's like eating bamboo shoots causes abdominal pain! Drinking alcohol causes gout! Did the soldiers start to feel sick after leaving Tonghe City?!"

Captain Wang and the military doctors looked at each other and remained silent.
"Mr. Qi has seen a lot, and knows a lot about strange people and strange things." Qi Ming said with a smile, "Wang Duwei has ever seen clothes that change color when exposed to the sun?"

"...color-changing clothes?!" The military doctor and Captain Wang were both surprised!

Qi Ming: "This king has seen it before. It is this Mr. Qi who solved this confusion for me. The color-changing clothes are soaked with bromosilver ore. Under the sunlight, bromosilver ore will change from colorless to gray."

Captain Wang once again exchanged glances with the military doctors, speechless to refute
Seeing this, Qi Ming continued to ask: "Is there any milk for the march before?"

"No," said Wang Duwei, "Our army gathered in Tonghe City and marched towards the north line. It was the generosity of the people in Tonghe City who sent milk to our army and was collected by the city order. Later, he sent ten more cows The cows go with the army." Speaking of this, his expression became more dignified.
Qi Ming said with shrewd eyes: "Couldn't the captain continue to provide milk to the sick soldiers?"

Wang Duwei's face became even more ugly, and he knelt down to plead guilty: "I really don't know about it! I thought that milk can strengthen my body!! My lord, forgive me!!"

"Your crimes will be judged by your father." Qi Ming still smiled, but his tone was cold, "Now that the matter is clear, we have to rectify and set off early. The captain must not be careless! If the northern line wins, you and I will say Maybe there is still a chance to make up for the mistakes. If you lose the battle, you can apologize on your own!" After finishing speaking, he led Qi Yun out without waiting for the response from the few people on the ground!

"My lord, this is an army of 30!" After leaving the tent, Qi Yun saw Lu Jiu following him, and whispered, "According to the market price, such a huge supply of milk requires a lot of silver taels! Are the people really spontaneous? Ten cows are not cheap! Where did Chengling get so much money?! This Tonghe city makes me feel very suspicious!!"

"The order of Tonghe City." Qi Ming kept walking, squinting his eyes to reveal a trace of killing intent, "I'll settle the score with him when I come back! Let's go!!"

"Eh?! Let's go now?!" Qi Yun was worried about the remaining blood in his butt, and couldn't believe it!The only response to him was an unquestionable and firm back! !
"Drive!!" Qi Ming changed his previous calmness, got on his horse and left the camp and ran wildly! !The red gauze headband protruding from the wrist flutters wildly with the strong wind! !Like someone's beating heart! ! !
In the huge city of Mangzhou, there are not many pedestrians on the street, some have escaped outside the city to take refuge, some closed the gates, and locked their family members in the courtyard without stepping forward, and some always opened it vigilantly at intervals Look at the situation outside the window. Originally, the peddlers on the frontier were the most active, but now there are only a few people selling.
On the panic-stricken streets, two figures, one big and one small, were riding on horseback, heading towards the north of Mangzhou
"Why are you going to the military camp with a child?" Lan Bo slowed down after bumping all the way, to see if there is any suitable restaurant in the city to settle down and fill his stomach.
"Don't worry about it?" Yu Lingzhou said proudly slightly, "When I get to the barracks, the benefits I promised you will definitely not break my promise!"

Lan Bo smiled and said, "How do I know you're not a spy from Beishuo?!"

Yu Lingzhou looked back and up with a surprised face, and said in a childish voice, "You suspect that I am a spy of the enemy army?!"

Lan Bo lowered his eyes and looked at the other party silently, with such an expression on his face
Yu Lingzhou: "Then why do you still take me on the road?"

Lan Bo slightly jokingly said: "Control you in my hands!"

Yu Lingzhou withdrew his head indifferently and said, "You're overthinking! Beishuo people are tall and mighty, and I'm too small!"

Lan Bo looked all the way, and found that the young boy's appearance was as moist as fresh fruit after cleaning up. His pink face and red lips were indeed the appearance of a Central Plains native, and he was considered outstanding among his peers. By.

"Whether you're a Beishuo spy or not, you'll find out when you enter the barracks!" Lan Bo looked up into the distance and said with a smile on his lips.

"Hmph! Employers don't doubt people, don't use them!" Yulingzhou's childish voice was nice, but his tone was disdainful, "I shouldn't have chosen you as an escort!!" After saying that, he twisted his small body and jumped off the horse nimbly! !When the toes hit the ground, he rolled on the ground to buffer his strength!Standing up and tidying up the corners of his clothes, he chose a medium-sized inn and walked in like a young man!
Unfortunately!This calmness, this extravagance did not last long!Yulingzhou was stopped at the door! !
"The inn doesn't take in little beggars!"
"Who do you call a little beggar?!" Yu Lingzhou said like a proud and expensive cat!
Seeing this, Lanbo couldn't help laughing. After getting off his horse, he took out a piece of silver and said, "My young master loves to play, and he got muddy after falling into a mud pit. I want a room, two small dishes, and two bowls." For rice, the horses need good fodder."

The waiter in the shop only opened his eyes when he saw Qian, and hurriedly greeted the freshmen and first novels!
"Yeah..." Yu Lingzhou rolled his eyes fiercely at the old man, he is really rich, "Huh!" He turned his head away arrogantly, and followed him into the inn helplessly!

　Well, about Mr. Yu, I have already planted a lot of small details foreshadowing, everyone can guess freely~[About milk, once I got a cold evil, Chinese medicine said so, the doctor asked me if I drank milk, I After thinking for a long time, I replied that I drank a bottle of Assam milk tea, does it count?The doctor nodded helplessly!Only then did I know the subtle relationship between milk and heat stroke and cold evil.But people in good health will not be affected by this. I also exaggerated in the plot. 10,000+ people are not acclimatized, which is quite scary! 】
