Chapter 29 Sending Letters
With no one above his head, he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Yang Zheng organized people to clean up the corpses in the city.

It's about their own life and death, no one wants to be with the smelly corpse all day long.

As long as you can move, move.

Some people with symptoms of the plague were quarantined.

It was originally estimated that there were seven or eight thousand wounded soldiers, but in fact there were fewer. The Yongliang army vented their anger before leaving and shot and killed a group of them. After so many days of injury, sickness and hunger, many Yu died.

There are also some active ones who have already fled.

It took two days to count, and there were only more than 4000 wounded soldiers alive.

Many of them have been dragged from minor injuries to serious injuries, and the wounds are inflamed and infected, leaving only their last breath.

Yang Zheng divided the [-] people in his hand into three parts. Zhang Te and Zhou Yu each led a strong group to hunt and fish in the city and search for herbs.

The rest of the quick-witted people followed Yang Zheng to treat the wounded.

Cheng Shisan's method of controlling animals would require amputation of limbs and flesh at every turn, which is too much for people.

Some people did not die at the hands of the Shu people, but died at his knives.

Even if he survived like Zhao Deng, he would become a useless person, unable to go to the battlefield or farm, and survival became a problem.

Yang Zheng knew some modern medical theories at least, and he knew about cleaning and disinfection, but what wounded soldiers lacked most was care.

Cooperating with Cheng Shisan who knows Chinese medicine, it has some effect.

Under the care of Yang Zheng, the wounded soldier's condition is also improving.

After feeding some porridge and medicinal herbs, many of the slightly injured gradually stood up.

For those who were really terminally ill, Yang Zheng really had no choice. In the age without antibiotics, he basically relied on his own physical fitness.

Yang Zheng could only treat them as best he could.

Many people die every day, but many people stand up every day.

The person who stood up, inspired by Yang Zheng, joined in the treatment.

The wounded soldiers fought the Shu army in Luogu, and returned to Guanzhong after going through hardships. They just went from one hell to another, suffered a lot in the Wugong City, and were ruthlessly abandoned.

He thought he was going to die, but he was saved.

Yang Zheng bandaged them, cleaned their wounds, wiped their bodies, and gave them medicine and food. He did everything by himself, and many people noticed it.

It's not like Shangguan didn't do this before, but most of them just put on a show, said something on the scene, and walked away as soon as they lifted their buttocks.

In the era of carnival of aristocratic families, people from the bottom were often inferior to livestock.

If it loses its use value, it will of course be abandoned.

Perhaps there is no shortage of talented people in the court, but their minds are all on the increasingly fierce political disputes, and no one will focus on the wounded soldiers.

The casualties of more than [-] troops are just a number in the performance.

Living at the height of the temple, with rich clothes and fine food, how can you appreciate the suffering in it?

Yang Zheng ate and lived with them, and got up at night to check on their condition and give them water.

Tired for many days, people are thin and out of shape.

The human heart is fleshy.

Naturally, I couldn't add more gratitude to Yang Zheng.

Many of the wounded soldiers had also witnessed how Yang Zheng fought against the elite of the Shu army and broke out of the siege that day, and they admired his bravery.

Within ten days, many people returned to their hearts in secret.

Of course, Yang Zheng is not really so selfless, of course he has selfishness.

But selfishness does not conflict with justice, so why not do it?
However, the speed of food consumption far exceeded Yang Zheng's expectations.

I thought I could carry it for two or three months, but half of it went in just half a month.

They are all big and three rough men, who can fight tigers in the mountains and catch dragons in the sea, and they have an amazing appetite.

The replanted crops have just sprouted.

There are prey, but it is obviously impossible to maintain the supply of thousands of people.

What depressed Yang Zheng the most was that there were not as many fish in the Wei water as expected, and a group of Di people moved to Meiyang in the west and north of Mei County.

This group of people can be called a mudslide, flying in the sky and running on the ground, harming anyone who can be harmed.

When the imperial court conquered Shu, they were also unlucky. They were recruited as civilian husbands, and their grain and livestock were confiscated for free...

It's hard now too.

That's what the so-called lack of success is.

On both sides of the Weishui River, there are quite a few fertile fields, and the large fields of wheat are green with yellow.

But it is the private land of rich officials and officials, and there are vicious dogs and strong men patrolling it every day.

Forewarned is forearmed, without prejudging the waste.

You can't just sit back and watch the mountain empty.

There is no need to count on the nearby counties. During the invasion of Shu, the entire Weinan was looted.

Even if there is food, they will not help Yang Zheng who has no name or title.

After thinking about it, he could only look at Chang'an.

Anyway, he has a relationship with Cao Shuang as master and servant, so maybe he can count on it?
In case Cao Shuang waved his hand, wouldn't it be great to be a captain?

Telling Linghu Sheng what he thought, Linghu Sheng raised his eyebrows, "If the general has the heart, he will not ignore the general."

Why didn't Yang Zheng know Cao Shuang's virtue?
Even if Cao Shuang has the heart, Deng Yang beside him will do everything possible to add to the obstruction.

Thinking of Deng Yang, Yang Zheng suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

Some things, if you do the opposite, grasp the human nature in them, and follow the trend, you may get miraculous results.

What is Deng Yang most afraid of, isn't he afraid that Yang Zheng will go back and compete with him for favor?

Why not "confess" Cao Shuang with great fanfare?
Anyway, I am also Cao Shuang's "confidant", and two generations of father and son have sold their lives for Cao Shuang's family.

It took more than an hour with Linghu Sheng to come up with a letter.

"The great general is above me, and my servant Yang Zheng pays homage to me. Thanks to the great blessing of the great general, my servant recovered from his illness, but I can't listen to the teachings of the venerable, and I can't sleep all night. If Chang Si can return to the side of the great general, this life will not be in vain. ... a piece of loyalty, the book can't say enough!"

The general content is flattering, and how much Yang Zheng misses his old master, how much he wants to return to Cao Shuang's side, and listen to the general's teachings again.

Yang Zheng looked at the bamboo slips once, and suddenly felt a tingling rush from the soles of his feet to the top of the sky.

Cao Shuang is simply described as a life mentor, wise and powerful, unprecedented.

I don't know if Cao Shuang will accept this letter.

Linghu Sheng looked at himself strangely.

Yang Zheng laughed dryly and coughed twice, "Ziqian doesn't know something, the general is good at it."

This guy Deng Yang doesn't seem to have any great skills. Isn't it just a good flattery to be able to make such an affectionate relationship with Cao Shuang?
Linghu Sheng said sternly: "It is harmless to use this technique once in a while, but if it is used frequently, it will definitely be despised by the family, and it will also damage the general's reputation."

"This is an expedient measure of last resort." Yang Zheng also wanted to cherish his feathers, but even if he was clean and flawless like a birdman, would the aristocratic clan value him as a human being?
Self-cultivation, regulating the family, governing the country and the world are the ways of the aristocratic family.

I don't even have the qualifications to cultivate myself.

"If the general really transfers the general back to Chang'an, wouldn't all previous efforts be wasted?" Linghu Sheng worried.

Yang Zheng smiled and said, "You don't understand Deng Yang."

Sometimes a look or a face-to-face can tell who he is.

Yang Zheng has been a human being in two lifetimes, and has suffered in this regard, so he understands human nature better.

With the degree of intimacy that both Cao Shuang and Deng Yang can share with their concubines, there is no doubt that Deng Yang will not be able to see this letter.

Yang Zheng repeatedly deliberated on the feasibility of the strategy. In fact, Cao Shuang didn't care if he didn't go back, and Deng Yang definitely didn't want to.

He will definitely stop it.

And since he flattered Cao Shuang so madly, Cao Shuang would express it no matter what, and if he leaked something from his fingers, his crisis would be resolved.

Of course, everything has uncertainty.

If Cao Shuang really called him back to Chang'an, it would be all right.

Martial arts is not a place to settle down, and sooner or later you have to leave.

At worst, wait for a while, convert a group of confidantes among the wounded soldiers, and then return to Chang'an.

Linghu Sheng cupped his hands and said: "This subordinate will definitely deliver this letter to the general."

The only one around who is trustworthy and thoughtful is Linghu Sheng.

Yang Zheng thought for a while, "If you can't even see the general's people, you can ask Governor Xiahou for help."

Xia Houxuan is a capable person, and there are no villains around him, so it is not difficult to meet him.

"promise!"
