Villager of Daming

Chapter 1198: Everyone Takes What They Need and Releases Them

When prisoners deal with the bodies of their comrades, they need to check them several times.

The comrades’ clothes were not taken away, but they were taken off first to check if there was anything stuck.

For example, copper coins, gold and silver lumps would be sewn somewhere on the clothes.

Leather clothes, including leather boots, were not thrown away and were buried together because they were said to rot slowly and be more susceptible to disease because there was not enough lime.

The person who carries the body looks at it once, the person who takes off clothes looks at it again, and when the pit is dug to throw it down, the person looks at it for the last time.

Check if the chest is rising or falling? Touch the neck to see if it is beating? If so, report it immediately and you will be rewarded.

It is probably impossible to let the reward let me go, but maybe I can have a good time in terms of wound treatment, eating and sleeping.

The village head came over to talk about these things. There was a lot of blood on the clothes of the Northern Yuan people. Most of them were made of linen, so there was no use for them.

But leather can be recycled. It's hot in summer, and most people wear leather boots instead of leather jackets. Leather boots can prevent scratches and punctures, and leather jackets are thick, so even leather jackets without fur are uncomfortable to wear.

Leather armor is different. Leather armor doesn't distinguish between hot and cold. Just like a shield, it's heavy to hold! How can you not hold it?

Zhu Wentian continued to grill skewers. This time he grilled more and wanted to share them with his friends. His friends were all tired today and they still had to guard their own tents.

They took turns coming in to drink some wine and eat a few skewers of meat, and the team was always able to hunt game and bring it back to hand in.

It's okay if you don't hand it in, just eat it yourself! You can cook it yourself, otherwise you have to give it to the kitchen and hand it over to the logistics soldier of the day.

The logistics soldiers record it and pick the best ones to send up, so that those who hunt the game will receive a monetary reward. To put it bluntly, they are buying it, but the price is very low because they are using military weapons and ammunition.

Even if they were caught with a bow and arrow or with bare hands, they would not be given a high price.

But when it was their turn to go hunting, everyone was very enthusiastic, and a little bit of money would add up to a lot! They would catch as they went, and if they were lucky, they could save a few hundred coins or even a few strings of silver when they returned.

Zhu Wentian didn't like eating roasted snake meat. He didn't even like eating game. He was used to eating farmed livestock and poultry, and was familiar with the processing methods.

If you suddenly change something and don't handle it properly, it will taste terrible. How can roasting snake meat and only adding salt make it delicious?

The same goes for venison, roe deer, muntjac, and wild boar. They are fishy and need to be soaked in cold water in advance! When cooking, add a lot of seasoning to suppress the smell.

There are wild goats here, quite a few of them!
Zhu Wentian couldn't find him at that time, but he is now found. He was caught by the soldiers with their bare hands and sent here alive.

Zhu Wentian and his friends put down their scalpels and picked up butcher knives and processed the meat quickly, soaking it, marinating it, and then grilling it.

“In fact, the hair of those people and the blood-stained linen clothes on their bodies are still valuable.

Hair can be made into felt and clothes can be made into paper, so there is no waste at all.

Of course, if you have a dog, you can feed people directly to the dog, including cooking them and feeding them to pigs, as pigs will also like to eat them.

Other leather clothes, leather boots and other items were distributed to the Jurchens in order to refurbish them and replenish the nitrate that was not needed.

We can't use it. If the Ming Dynasty's logistics are so shameful, how embarrassed I will be? The head of the village will give you food..."

Zhu Wentian handed the skewers of meat to the head of the village and talked about how to use the things.

Someone had done that before. In the concentration camps, hair, teeth, and even skin could all be used.

It’s a pity that guy was too soft-hearted and killed too few people!
So some people say that those who study art cannot become great, and the devil should be killed to the last drop!
The head of the village had no idea what Hanhan was thinking. He took the skewers of meat and said, "It's hot, and it's hard to deal with the injuries. Should we take the wounded to the Ajiahan Alliance Tribe?" The head of the village was in a dilemma. During the day, everyone said that Hanhan couldn't express himself directly, so he could only play dumb.

Zhu Wentian nodded: "Take him with you, even if he dies on the way, you have to take him with you. Wouldn't he die if he returns? We are still on the road.

Taking them with us will make it convenient for us to take care of them nearby, and it is a good time to accumulate experience.

Doctors should not only be able to provide emergency treatment, but also understand follow-up treatment, such as infection, allergies and other symptoms.

Some use good medicines and see how they work, while others use normal medicines and adjust the prescriptions.

The data we have accumulated will be used on the people of the Ming Dynasty in the future. It is very valuable. Take photos, take more photos.

Looking at the photos and comparing them, we will find that the technology today will be far behind in the future. But it is because of today that we have the future!
Another aspect is that..."

Zhu Wentian had already thought about it. He wanted to take the prisoners and the seriously injured among them with him, and leave the seriously injured here and have someone watch over them? Send them to the back?
Neither of those is a good idea. If we follow the team, we can get medical treatment at any time. Xiaqiu Village and the imperial doctors can't go somewhere else just for the wounded prisoners, right?
Everyone continue to practice and see what condition the wounds of those who were saved today will be in tomorrow... God knows!

More importantly, use these captives and wounded to intimidate other Jurchen tribes, letting them know the rules and the power of the Ming Dynasty.

Ajiahan belonged to a tribal alliance, and Tuyajie was only the leader of the largest tribe among them. Other tribes thought he was capable and followed him.

In terms of power distribution, he was the boss, and others might not be worse than him if they united. The Northern Yuan Dynasty used this to divide and win over others.

Now, only Tu Yajie's tribe is wanted, and other tribes are not wanted. Let them seek others to unite with, or find ways to survive on their own.

As long as there is a need for survival, there will be contact between tribes, and through their mouths, they will explain to other tribes.

Including the prisoners captured by the Northern Yuan Dynasty at this time, some of them were treated and released, allowing them to go back.

Those who return will most likely be killed. In order to stabilize the morale of the army, and in fact the people, the Northern Yuan army is not just an army. It is the same as the Qianhu Suo and other places of the Ming Dynasty.

There are ordinary people, including the elderly, children, women, and men with military status, namely military households.

If the captives were released, they would be smart to refuse, or act happy and run away! If they didn't go back, they would find a place to hide and continue to live.

The unwise one happily returned to his original place and told the generals about what he had seen and experienced there.

The generals thought, how can we let others hear this? Just...die!

What if there are more people who are released? Kill them all? Kill them all without leaving any hidden dangers? Those who return will definitely choose those with more family members.

They have families there, and they are killed when they return there. How do their families feel? How do other people see it? See it with their eyes?

The village head listened, finished eating the skewer of wild goat meat, and raised his glass: "Isn't it a pity to die? If he lives to mine in our area...ah..."

The head of the village stopped talking and sighed.

"What if their generals don't kill them? We did release them, but as for... uh... there is a way!"

Zhu Wentian wanted to give up if he wanted, since it was all for the Ming Dynasty.

Suddenly he had an idea. He could try his best to protect the people who were released. In this way, those people could spread the news better and fundamentally reduce the morale of the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.
