Horse on the World

Chapter 5 This is my soldier?
"What? These are my soldiers?" Li Qing stared in front of him dumbfounded. There were three hundred soldiers here, but they were clearly three hundred wounded. His ears were filled with groans, and there were bloodstains in front of his eyes. Lying there silently, I don't know if I can live.
"Yes, yes!" Lu Dabing smiled, "Lieutenant Li, you see, I have just started the draft battalion, and there is a serious shortage of soldiers. To be honest, these soldiers are all good soldiers, and the injuries are not serious. , as long as they are raised well, they will be alive and well, and they have all been on the battlefield and seen blood, tsk tsk, if the commander-in-chief asked me to support you, I would really hate them, now I have to take advantage of Captain Li. "

Seeing Lu Dabing's smiling expression, Li Qing wished to smash his face into a persimmon with one punch, but he also knew in his heart that if he punched out, he, the Zhenwu captain who had just arrived, would definitely be gone. Well, maybe Lieutenant Yunhui is gone, and he immediately becomes a soldier.
"Thank you, general!" Li Qing forced himself to put on a smile. Although they are wounded soldiers, they are still human after all. What Lu Dabing said is not bad, as long as they can live, they will definitely become good soldiers. It can make them survive. There are no antibiotics in this era, and the chance of surviving an injury is not high.
Wang Qinian, Jiang Kui, and Feng Guo stared blankly at the wounded soldiers entering the camp. A large group of people helped me and I supported you, moaning all the way, and some of them were carried on stretchers. The few soldiers Li Qing took with him when he went to the selection camp were all stretcher soldiers, and even Li Qing had a wounded soldier on his arm.
"This is our soldier?" Wang Qinian stared at Li Qing.

"For a long time, they will be my soldiers." Li Qing said sullenly.

"Too much deception!" Wang Qinian slammed his fist on the table, causing everything on the table to jump up. Li Qing gave him a dissatisfied look, "Old Wang, I know you are strong, so you don't need to show off in front of me." ."
"But my lord, the commander promised to give us three hundred soldiers."
"That's right, it's three hundred soldiers, but the commander-in-chief didn't say that three hundred wounded soldiers are not enough. Lu Dabing played this trick with us, and we have nowhere to complain. Besides, do you think the commander-in-chief will fight Lu Dabing for us?" Seriously? If we really want to start a fight, the commander-in-chief can only laugh at Lu Dabing's narrow-mindedness, but we have added an enemy, Lu Dabing is the younger brother of Lu Pianjiang, and it is no good for us if we fall out."
Jiang Kui said: "My lord, these three hundred soldiers are all wounded. I just went to check. There are more than 200 lightly injured, and there are more than a dozen seriously injured. Seeing that they will not survive, it is the more than 200, also, also I don’t know how many people can survive?” These people are all veterans, and they know what it means to be injured?
Li Qing nodded and said: "Yes, this is the first thing we need to consider now, how to keep them alive as much as possible. Oh, yes, Feng Guo, I asked you to collect the military equipment and food. Is it?"

"My lord, bring them back. Two hundred spears, one hundred war knives, one hundred leather shields, one hundred stones of grain, and three hundred sets of military uniforms have all been brought back." Feng Guo nodded and said, "The commander-in-chief said, These things did not deprive us, they were given to us very readily."

"Well, it seems that we don't need this batch of ordnance for the time being. You let the previous brothers equip themselves first, so you need to be a little bit more energetic. Jiang Kui, go to the doctor and treat the brothers' wounds."

"Yes, my lord, it's just that we need money to hire a doctor, and we are penniless now!" Jiang Kui glanced at Li Qing in embarrassment.
Li Qing raised his head sullenly, "Now the whole Dingzhou has become a war preparation area, I think our Changsheng Battalion has the right to enlist the doctors from the local medical center, go find them immediately, brothers, you can't wait, even if you are tied, you have to give them to me." I tie me up."

Jiang Kui smiled, and licked the corner of his mouth, "Deling, my lord, with your words, I promise to tie one up for you."
Li Qing rolled his eyes, turned his head and said to Wang Qinian: "Qinian, you take someone to clean up our camp. There are so many wounded soldiers here, don't make the camp like a garbage dump, and arrange the wounded according to severity. .”

"Yes." Wang Qinian turned around and strode away.
"Feng Guo, did you hear any news when you went to the arsenal today?" Turning to ask Feng Guo who was idling by the side.
"My lord, the city of Dingzhou is very tense now. There are rumors that the barbarians are about to attack. The three battalions in the Zhongxie have all entered the first-level combat readiness. Incorporated into the reserve team, Master Zhizhou Fang is still mobilizing the young and strong, in short, now who is in Dingzhou is preparing for a big battle."
Li Qing pinched his teeth and said: "Barbarians are good at field warfare but not at attacking cities. I think Dingzhou is so dangerous. As long as the barbarian leader is not kicked by a donkey, he will never come to kick this iron plate."

Feng Guo said with a smile: "I'm afraid that the barbarian leader will be violent."

Li Qing chuckled, "Brave? Feng Guo, look at this time in the meadow, that guy dispatched troops and horses, ate the deputy general to death, and ate our 5 strong soldiers with [-] horses. Do you only know how to be strong? This guy is not so simple!"
Feng Guo's eyes lit up: "Does your lord think that the barbarians won't come?"
"That's not sure, at least it's okay to come to Dingzhou to show off. Anyway, it is impossible for the Dingzhou army to go out of the city to fight him in the field."

"Hey!" Feng Guo clapped his palms together, "That's, to be honest, my lord, it's really scary to fight with barbarians in the field. Don't be afraid of your lord's jokes. During the Battle of Meadow, I saw tens of thousands of horses galloping, even the ground Being shaken by horseshoes is shaking, and my legs are weak. I don’t have enough cavalry in Dingzhou, and it’s really not advisable to fight with barbarians.”

Li Qing glanced at him indifferently, "After the infantry has been trained, it's easy to take care of the cavalry."

Feng Guo shook his head in disbelief, and was about to refute, when suddenly there was a burst of noise outside, mixed with crying and howling, Li Qing frowned, "What's the matter, let's go and see."

The two strode out of the camp.

Seeing Li Qing coming, Wang Qinian finally saw the savior, and said loudly: "Okay, okay, my lord is here, if you have anything to say, just talk to Li lord!"
Wang Qinian is now very embarrassed, surrounded by a large circle of wounded soldiers, there are two seriously wounded lying on the ground, one of them is holding his leg.

"What happened?" Li Qing glanced at the group of wounded soldiers vigilantly, his scalp was a little irritated, could it be that the camp was bombed, mutiny, it's not like that!
"My lord! Although we were injured, but not seriously, we will definitely survive, please don't give up on us, my lord." Before Li Qing understood what happened, two wounded soldiers had already put his legs in prison. Hugging tightly, his scalp numb, Li Qing almost pulled out his waist knife.

Looking down at the two wounded soldiers who were hugging their legs, one had a stab in the chest and abdomen, but was just wrapped in a cloth indiscriminately, blood was oozing from under the torn cloth, the other eye was gone, and the blood It is seeping out from the eye hole.
"Let go, my lord, what do you want to do?" Feng Guo quickly pulled out his waist knife and said sharply, "Do you want to rebel?"

The two wounded soldiers let go of Li Qing's legs, fell to the ground, and cried loudly: "My lord, don't kill us, we will recover soon, and we can still fight for your lord."

Li Qingqi said: "Who wants to kill you?"
Feng Guo suddenly came to his senses, and whispered in his ear: "My lord, I understand, the army usually treats the seriously wounded soldiers with a knife, let them go more quickly, so as not to suffer more, just now Your lord asked Wang Qinian Moving the camp, these seriously wounded must have thought that they were going to kill them."

Li Qing's heart trembled, "Who made this bastard's rules?"
Feng Guo glanced at Li Qing in surprise: "My lord, this is a common practice in the army. These seriously wounded ones will definitely not be able to go to the battlefield again. Even if you spend money to save them, most of them will not be able to save them. In order not to waste money, so It’s usually just a matter of making up for it.”
"Fart." Li Qing cursed.Kneeling down, he said: "Don't worry, both of you, why would I, Li Qing, kill my own robe, just don't worry."
"Then why did your lord put us in another account?" asked the wounded soldier with an eye injury.

"I've already gone to ask for a doctor. I put you in a separate battalion to save you seriously injured first." Li Qing said kindly.
"Your Excellency is telling the truth?" The two looked at Li Qing suspiciously.

Li Qing smiled and stood up: "Brothers, in front of everyone today, Li Qing made an oath that from today onwards, no matter what injuries you suffer, my Changsheng Camp will not give up on you. Swear, let me, Li Qing, shoot random arrows through my heart, and die a terrible death."

All the noise disappeared following Li Qing's words, and the entire camp was extremely quiet. After a long while, a wounded man knelt down abruptly and said, "Thank you sir, I am willing to die for you." Following the first one kneeling down, one after another All the wounded soldiers knelt down on the ground, "willing to die for my lord."

Li Qing waved his hands, "Everyone get up, listen to Mr. Wang's arrangement to move the camp, the doctor will be here soon."
