Villager of Daming

Chapter 336 Yucunxia Qiuduo Longing (Sixth)

"I'm looking for medicine! Don't worry about marching. Let me tell you that the medicine you found now will be sold to you for [-]% in the future. Come and take a look. This is the medicine you need to find."

Another morning, everyone boiled horse meat and rice into porridge, and the prisoners shared half a bowl.

They put fried noodles in, found two thick straw sticks as chopsticks, and pulled them into their mouths.

Soldiers of the Ming army came over to show them an atlas, on which were pictures of a bunch of herbs.

This is for the army to have time to collect, if there is no time, forget it, and focus on fighting.

Marching in the desert, they collected some poisonous snakes and scorpions, dried them and put them in bags.

Things can be exchanged for money when they are taken back, which is their extra income.

At the beginning, everyone had discussed that part of the money from the sale would be allocated to the family members of the deceased brothers.

Today is the third day after the rain, many fungi have grown up, and other herbs can be seen more clearly.

The captives came over with bowls and took a look. Some of the pictures recognized it at a glance, and they knew it was medicine.

"Is this stuff medicine? The blue flowers are very beautiful at first, and women like to pick them off."

There was also a brochure next to the young general, and he flipped through it. Other knowledge, he didn't know that this thing belonged to medicine.

"Arrhythmic ginseng, the root is medicine, it looks similar to bellflower, and bellflower also has small blue flowers." The soldier in charge of looking after him introduced.

"Yes, there is one that is very similar to it. That one is boiled water to drink when coughing, and this one, when the wind blows, it will fly everywhere. The root boiled water is also a medicine."

The young general saw dandelions again, he understood, but he could only sigh: "My leg is injured, so I can't pick it."

"You Li has made great contributions, and there will be rewards. I will show the brochure to others, and there are only a hundred copies." Ming Bing handed the brochure to others.

"Speaking of seeing a doctor, it's you people who can remember so many medicines. You have excellent medical skills."

The young general looked at his injured leg as he spoke. His leg was hanging out and still swollen.

"Don't worry, there will be no more problems. When it rains, it will be covered with oilcloth as before."

"It will rain in the afternoon. It looks like light rain. The wounded people are afraid of water. Or it will rain at noon, you can't tell!"

The young general looked up at the sky, took a few breaths, and judged that it was raining.

"Let's eat first." When Ming Bing heard that it was raining, he turned to report.

This young general is very powerful, he knows a lot, and he can watch the sky. Last time he said that there will be heavy rain.

It shows that people are not only familiar with it in the local area, but also specialize in research and memorization.

After the prisoners had finished eating, they walked sideways in groups of ten, looking down for medicinal herbs in the grass.

They have two Luoyang shovels in each group, which are used to dig out the roots and medicinal materials, and the others squat directly to grab them.

The young general was carried away by the captives, and said again: "You guys are shovels? Who figured it out? Digging holes is too fast."

"Xiaqiu Village! You can't find a river on the grassland, and you can dig it down quickly with it.

When we walk in the desert, we rely on it to get water, find wet sand, and wait for water to seep when we dig somewhere.

It's a pity that there is less iron, otherwise more Luoyang shovels will be made, which is the most convenient for digging wells. "

Ming Bing looked at the Luoyang shovel in the captive's hand, and recalled what he had encountered along the way. He relied on it to find water when he walked in the desert.

The same goes for the grasslands. When there is no one to guide the way, you can dig the soil with a Luoyang shovel and get water soon.

There is also setting up a camp, which is faster than engineers digging a hole with a shovel, but they cannot help to make a solid wall.

"It's Xiaqiu Village again, can I let you in to see that village?" The young general was yearning, wanting to take a look at the magical village.

"It depends on which Xiaqiu village you think of. Anyone in the county can go." Ming Bing obviously knew a lot.

"How many more are there in the village?" the young general wondered.

"There is one outside Donghua Gate and one inside Chaoyang Gate, and one outside Chaoyang Gate, neither of which allows outsiders to enter.

After entering that Xiaqiu Village, you can enter the Prince's Mansion, how can you put the Prince in a dangerous place?
When I go back, if I have a chance, I will tell you how to get to Xiaqiu Village in Xuancheng County. "

"Aren't you going?"

"I am a soldier stationed in Nanjing. I have to enter the barracks when I go back. There are..."

Ming Bing talked about the brothel for the other party, so the young general's yearning for Xiaqiu Village faded away for a while, and he changed to Qinhuai River, and his legs didn't seem to hurt much.

The team was advancing slowly, and Xu Da was not in a hurry. He defeated Wang Baobao to confirm that the road ahead was easy.

At the same time, he was worried that Wang Baobao wanted to ambush his army somewhere on the road after he ran away. The scouts would be thirty miles away, otherwise he would not be at ease.

The captives began to hand in the medicinal materials they pulled out and dug up, and there were many poisonous snakes inside, all of which were shoveled off by Luoyang.

Poisonous snakes are also counted. Take out the snake gall and put it in boiling water to scald it, scald it several times, then dry it, then scald it again, and then dry it in the sun, so that the snake gallbladder can be dried well.

"It will rain in a while, let's cook first?" The young general looked up at the sky again, it was not yet noon.

Ming soldiers continued to report, Xu Da chose to trust the other party, and used Luoyang shovel to dig the stove, while the prisoners collected hay and dead branches.

Some tents are set up, and the generals and the wounded are ready to go in at any time.

As soon as the meal was ready, light rain fell, and the young general was invited to Xu Da's tent.

"Xin Ge?" Xu Da asked the young general, this is the young general's own name.

"General Xu is me." The young general was a little nervous, he had heard of Xu Da's name, he was good at fighting, and he had never lost a single defeat.

He didn't know that Xu Da was defeated in this battle in history, but he was defeated but not defeated, and he still dared not fight with his Yuan soldiers.

"You can be sure whether it will rain or not, come and drink!" Xu Da poured a cup of medicinal wine for Xin Ge who was lying on one leg.

"General Xu, can I drink?" The young general Xin Ge looked at his legs.

"It doesn't matter. There is ginseng in this wine. His Majesty brought it here because he was afraid that the generals like me would feel unwell outside. The prescription from Xiaqiu Village is good for strengthening the body and dispelling dampness and cold."

As Xu Da said, he poured another cup for Lan Yu, isn't it raining?The humidity is heavy, and the general must take good care of his body.

The other generals were also given medicinal wine in their tents, and two cups were enough, not too much, lest they run out of wine.

"Thank you, General Xu and General Lan." The young general then moved the wine cup in front of him.

He hasn't had a drink for a long time and has been running with Wang Baobao. The last time Wang Baobao escaped, his family members were arrested, such as his younger sister.

The Ming soldiers next to them are in charge of roasting rabbits. Smart animals like wolves will run away when they see the army approaching.

Rabbits run into their nests, and then come out to look for food, no matter how many holes there are, so many people are looking for herbs, and when they see rabbits, they promise to catch them.

There are two rabbits for Xu Da and Lan Yu, one for each of them, and the Ming soldier who takes care of the young general is in charge of roasting. He is Xu Da's personal soldier.

While roasting him, sliced ​​the cooked meat, Xu Da scooped dry ingredients from the small bowl next to him: "Come on, Xinge, dip this in and eat. There are salt, pepper noodles, cumin, and sesame seeds."

"Did you bring it from Xiaqiu Village?" The young general didn't know why, so he asked such a sentence with a single mouth.

　There is one more chapter, the agreed seventh watch.
