Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 468 Who is to blame for the bad luck?

Chapter [-] Who is to blame for bad luck?

"Father, this is inappropriate!" Li Jiancheng looked at Li Yuan and said solemnly.Li Yuan was the emperor, once he opened his mouth, there was no room for maneuver.Therefore, Li Jiancheng decided to discuss with Li Yuan, not to make this decision hastily.When Li Yuan ordered Li Shimin to go to Dali Temple for questioning, Li Jiancheng actually understood Li Yuan's intention.This is for the safety of Li Shimin, first transfer Li Shimin back from the Luoyang front line, put Chen Ying at the front, Xin'an and Hangu Pass, if they can abide by the rules, if they can't, they will abandon Guandong.

Li Yuan raised his brows, his eyebrows jumped up, obviously Li Yuan was suppressing his anger: "Prince, what's your plan?"

"I haven't thought of it yet...but..." Li Jiancheng thought for a while, and then said: "However, in the eighteen counties of Henan Province, thousands of Guanzhong athletes were brought back with blood. If we just give up Guandong like this, the thousands of What's the point of Jian'er's death!"

Xiao Yu bowed and said: "His Royal Highness, the old minister thought... the Tang Dynasty had already lost in the battle of Luoyang, with a loss of 480 soldiers. The most important thing now is to guard the gates of Hangu Pass and Tongguan. Hangu Pass is [-] miles away from Chang'an. , Tongguan is more than three hundred miles away from Chang'an. Once the second pass falls, Wang Shichong's army will be able to kill Chang'an in three days or one day. Your Majesty must make a decisive decision..."

"Shut up!" Li Jiancheng interrupted Xiao Yu's words unceremoniously: "Wang Shichong's army has not set off yet, and they are going to flee. No matter how high-sounding they say, abandoning Luoyang and Kanto means fleeing and will be punished by the world." It is ridiculed."

Li Yuan turned his head slowly, looking at Chen Shuda and Pei Ji.Pei Ji lowered his brows and lowered his eyes, without saying a word.

Li Yuan turned to look at Feng Deyi and asked, "Feng Lun, tell me!"

Feng Deyi held his head high and said, "I don't agree with giving up the Kanto region!"

A gleam of joy appeared in Li Jiancheng's eyes.

Xiao Yu was furious: "Fawning."

Feng Deyi didn't seem to have heard Xiao Yu's words, and continued: "His Royal Highness is right, no matter how you pretend to be wrong, if you look at the enemy and fight timidly, losing the city and territory is running away, which is a cowardly act."

Li Yuan stared at Feng Deyi with great interest, and Li Jiancheng let out a long sigh, but Feng Deyi immediately spoke again: "I will not blame His Royal Highness King Qin, after all, the loss of [-] soldiers and horses is someone's responsibility. .”

Xiao Yu was dumbfounded, and cursed: "Little man——"

Feng Deyi was unmoved, and continued righteously: "Although His Royal Highness the King of Qin is a prince, but before the law, the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people. The dignity of the court is important, but the continuation of the Tang Dynasty is more important. For the momentary dignity But trapping the ruler and father in an unexpected place is not the work of a minister."

Li Yuan said with a smile: "Slippery!"

Feng Deyi said: "I think that whether you want to give up Guandong depends on two things. The first one is that the Qin king is newly defeated. In Luoyang, General Chen led the remnants of the defeated general, and whether he can stop Wang Shichong; the second one is that Dou Jiande of Hebei will Will not move westward, whether the Hangu Pass and Tongguan defense lines are stable...

At this moment, a voice came from outside the hall—an urgent report—!
An officer from the left prison gate, covered in rain, ran up to the hall in embarrassment, and threw himself forward: "Urgent report...Kanto emergency report...!"

Li Yuan, who had been sitting on the imperial couch with a calm mind, suddenly stood up, staring at the guard officer of the left guard.

The officer hurriedly said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the Zuo Jianmen learned of the secret report that Dou Jiande of Hebei led an army of 30 to storm Xiangzhou. Xiangzhou was defeated and has now fallen..."

……

In the large tent of the Tang Army in the Beiman Mountain of Luoyang, the heavy rain was like pouring down.Looking at the continuous rain, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief: "God bless the Tang Dynasty. Under such weather, Wang Shichong will definitely not be able to send troops, and we can get a rare respite."

When the generals heard this, a little smile appeared on their gloomy faces.

Only Chen Ying looked worried.

Seeing Chen Ying's anomaly, Li Shimin asked with a smile, "General Chen, did I say something wrong? The rain didn't come well?"

"Good or bad!" Chen Ying said indifferently: "Although the rain comes quickly and suddenly, it can delay Wang Shichong's use of troops and win precious opportunities for our Tang army, but..."

Li Shimin asked nervously, "But what?"

"However, it will increase the casualties of our army!" Chen Ying explained patiently: "You are all veterans who have led the army for many years, and you will definitely find a problem, that is, the soldiers who were injured in winter, especially the traumatic ones, died of serious injuries. There are not many soldiers, but whenever the weather is hot or rainy, many wounded soldiers who were originally slightly injured and could recover in a month or so, died without treatment..."

Chen Ying's words immediately attracted the attention of all the generals in the big tent, especially Cheng Zhijie who was the first to agree and said: "What General Chen said is very true. If you don't say it, I, Old Cheng, really can't remember it. I heard you say something like this today. Say, that's really the case!"

Qin Qiong nodded, agreeing.

Li Shimin frowned and asked: "General Chen, this situation really happened, what caused it?"

"This is because there will be something called bacteria on the wound!" Chen Ying looked at the puzzled generals and explained: "We can't see this kind of bacteria with the naked eye, but this kind of thing likes temperature and humidity. , in the rainy and high-temperature season, it will breed rapidly, causing the flesh of the wound to rot quickly..."

What Chen Ying said was the facts, and the generals also knew that the wounds of wounded soldiers in summer were easy to rot, but in winter, unless the wounds were not treated in time, they would not get infected and rot.

Li Shimin said: "I didn't expect General Chen to be so knowledgeable and talented!"

Chen Ying explained: "Hehe... Chen Ying read this from an isolated medical book!"

Li Shimin really wanted to break the casserole and ask the end, and then asked: "What medical book?"

As the saying goes, for a lie, countless lies must be used to complete the lie.Chen Ying's knowledge of ancient medical books is very limited, even if there are medical books lost in later generations, there may not be no such books in this era.

Since Yang Guang had repaired a large number of books, when Li Yuan captured Chang'an, he surrendered without a fight, and was not affected by the flames of war at all.At the turn of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, these books were greatly protected.For example, Hua Tuo's "Qing Nang Jing", "Zhongzang Jing", "Healing Heart Prescription", and "Acupuncture Classic" were not lost in the Sui Dynasty.In the Tang Dynasty, after the Anshi Rebellion and the Huangchao Rebellion, these precious soul treasures were lost in the flames of war.

What Chen Ying couldn't be sure of was that he made up the name of an ancient book. If Li Shimin returned to Chang'an and sent him to search for it, Chen Ying would have a lot of fun if he found that it didn't match what Chen Ying said.After thinking about it, Chen Ying had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "This book is called "Compendium of Materia Medica", and the author is said to be a person named Li Shizhen. This Li Shizhen is from Qichun, Qizhou."

Li Shimin thought for a while, and he was sure that he had never heard of the medical book "Compendium of Materia Medica". Although most of the generals present were literate, they also didn't know much about medical books.Li Shimin asked everyone, including Li Xiuning, who is knowledgeable and talented, and he had never heard of this book.

Li Xiuning looked at Chen Ying suspiciously and said, "General Chen, is there any record in this medical book, and how to prevent it?"

"There is a little record, only Chen Ying has not been able to find the drug called penicillin so far!" Chen Ying said very regretfully: "If you can find Artemisia annua, you can extract artemisinin, and it can also be used to heal wounds!"

In fact, Chen Ying vaguely remembers that when he read the Penicillin Encyclopedia in later generations, he once read that as early as the Tang Dynasty, the tailors in Chang’an City would apply paste with green hairs on the fingers cut by scissors to help the wound heal. The substance (penicillin bacteria) produced by green hair has a bactericidal effect, that is, people first used penicillin.

However, Chen Ying was not a doctor, and he dared not use medicines that had not been tested in practice on these wounded soldiers. If there were sequelae or wound infections, Chen Ying would not be curing the disease to save lives, but murdering them.

Of course, Chen Ying was the first to order the right guards to lead the Xun Erfu to escort Chen Huairen and Chen Huairen's medical team to Luoyang Beimang camp to treat the wounded soldiers.

At this time, there were already wounded soldiers in the Beiman camp, and the surviving Tang army was less than 5 horses. In fact, more than two-thirds of them were lightly or seriously wounded soldiers, and most of them were wounded by fire. These burns, in later generations It was also a very difficult problem to treat. Following the heavy rain, many wounded soldiers' wounds were soaked in rainwater, and their body temperature rose and they became unconscious. Chen Ying knew that this was a sign of wound inflammation.

The entire medical team of more than [-] people had all surrendered to the tense rescue process. Only Chen Huairen, Zhao Yuanqiao and Li Chuqi, three doctors with relatively good medical skills, started to create penicillin with the help of Chen Ying.

However, now that time is running out, Chen Ying has no choice but to treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

He had the flour made into flatbreads, which were not eaten but kept warm.In the high temperature and high humidity environment, after three days, thick green hairs really grew on these dough cakes.

Chen Huairen was wearing a thick mask, and with tweezers, he carefully removed the thick green hair from the top of the pancake and put it in a clay pot.After working for more than an hour, I finally took off all the green hairs on the dough cake.

Chen Huairen took the small clay pot, ran out of the greenhouse quickly, came outside, quickly took off his mask, and gasped heavily.

Zhao Yuanqiao said displeasedly, "It's terrible, it smells so bad in there, it almost made me faint, it's so disgusting!"

Li Chuqi asked cautiously: "Master, such a disgusting thing can still heal injuries?"

"Yes, definitely!" Chen Huairen nodded solemnly and said, "General Chen will not be wrong!"

Zhao Yuanqiao looked at the disgusting Lu Luan, and resisted the gastric juice rolling in his stomach: "Master, if... we put him to death!"

"It's their bad luck, who can blame it!" Chen Huairen said, "Let's go, quickly find a few seriously injured people to try!"
