Although the barracks in Rijuwei were rudimentary, the conditions were much better than those during the cholera in Gyeonggi, at least they didn't have to sleep on wet straw.

There are only six military doctors, which is too small. According to Qi Law, the Tai Hospital will send doctors to various places from time to time to be on duty, and after working for three years, they will return to Beijing, and they will have an advantage when they are promoted. However, for three generations, this part of the law was so lenient that few medical officers took the initiative to ask for help, and they were only forced to transfer out of the imperial capital when there was a plague in the army.

In addition, Xu Buyang is only eleven doctors, and Su Huihui has one head and two big. It is easy to arrange things with few people, but when you start a battle, the wounded soldiers are like flowing water, and I am afraid that you will not even be able to sleep with your eyes.

The room assigned to her by the guard was very clean, Ruixiang moved quickly, put the bed away, and asked the soldiers outside the door about everything, and it would be familiar in a while.

The soldier had two meals a day, and when dinner was open, Su Hui looked at the booklet and saw Shen Shi. The type and number of injuries and illnesses of the soldiers were recorded in the book of wounds, which were written in a very sloppy manner due to the rush of time. She didn't dare to slack off, tried to make out the handwriting on it, and after reading the list of military doctors and the cases they had treated, she found that there was actually a person who specialized in treating horses.

She suddenly felt that the road ahead was difficult.

Smoke rose from the camp and drifted to the setting sun, and Su Huihui stood at the door, watching the soldiers line up in an orderly manner and go to the big house in the west to eat. There are also brick walls and tiles here to shelter from the wind and rain, and further north, more than 3,000 people are covering the sky and the ground, setting up tents to make stove fires, which is the real hard life.

There was a bang, and everyone rushed out without looking at her. Since ancient times, it has been taboo for women to enter the military camp, and I don't know what the above told Wei, she pricked up her ears and didn't hear any complaints.

The military doctors lived together, and soon gathered in Su Huihui's room, waiting for instructions. Yu Shouzhong did enough of the etiquette of his late life, and first invited the chief doctor of Wei to sit down.

Su Huihui changed into a black dress that was boiling medicine in the palace, and gave off the sweat towel in pain, but fortunately it subsided a little, and it didn't look obvious. She held a stack of worn-out booklets in her right hand, and the military doctors couldn't help but be stern when they saw that she was young and had a bit of a posture.

There were not so many courtesies in the barracks, but she was more comfortable, and said seriously: "I have read these brochures carefully, and I have a rough idea in my heart, you don't have to think that we are from Fanjing, so we don't know anything about these things in the army." The gentlemen have been in Lizhou Weili for more than ten years, and their experience is far richer than ours, so they have to ask the gentlemen for advice after that. ”

The youngest of the six military doctors was also in his forties, and they looked at each other at the moment, and it should be cautious. Su Hui had a lot of questions, but he couldn't show it, so he only smiled:

"Now that I'm new to the city, I ask you to do just three things. The first thing to do is to take an inventory of the medicine depot in the guard to see if there are any discrepancies with what is recorded in the booklet. Now that the war is about to begin, these things are not missing, and we have sorted out the scores and categories, and prepared the nearest carriages and horses in case the army can withdraw from Suiling in time -- I naturally hope to win every battle, but if we do not go to the front, we must ensure that the army has no worries. ”

The military doctors nodded one after another, she observed her words, her heart was relieved, and she continued: "The second thing is that someone needs to go to the city to buy enough mussel shells, sesame oil, baiji, cold water stone and other things, if they are all sold out, it is okay to use borneol and four incense. ”

A military doctor twisted his beard and said, "What kind of recipe do you want to use these?"

The two imperial doctors pondered silently, only Yu Shouzhong said innocently: "Xia Guan doesn't understand very well, but the adults must be prepared for a rainy day, and Xia Guan will go out with a few people to buy it tomorrow morning." ”

Su Huihui was very moved, every time only Imperial Doctor Yu helped her down the steps, and she must send a letter to the envoy of the Zhang Yuan to apply for him to be promoted.

Doctor Wei thought for a while and said slowly, "This seems to be a recipe used decades ago...... Adults even know. There is indeed a lack of these flavors in the camp, and if the adults are in a hurry to use them, the old and decayed people will talk to the king about the matter, and they will enter the city later. ”

Su Hui hurriedly said: "The bell is about to ring, let's not be busy today, although we are doctors, but now in the guard, we should abide by the military order." ”

The old military doctor raised his eyelids quietly: "Commander Hegu Wei Ji and a certain class have instructed that Master Su is a judge of the Tai Hospital, with a noble status, and a golden mouth. ”

Su Huihui silently covered his chest and secretly stabbed Ji Wei a hundred villains. Who told him to say that! Also, why did Ji Wei intervene in everything?

She said with a straight face: "The commander is not very familiar with me, but I understand his kindness." If you don't have to go to bed at the same time as the soldiers tonight, let's help with the inventory, it's not easy to get out of the gate after all. As for the required medicinal materials, mussel shells are burned with yellow powder, with borneol and four incense burns as the top, and then mixed with sesame oil; or with white root, white root, danfen, cold water stone, and cork as the final coat, all of which are used to treat firearm burns. ”

Another military doctor exclaimed: "The villain remembers, I have heard of it before, this is the method of the northern land! The barbarians of the Liang State used firearms in the battle with our Daqi, and the doctors in the army specially listed the prescriptions and asked them to mix them at home and bring them with them. Master Su even knows this, and he is really well-informed. ”

Everyone else was impressed, Su Huihui stiffly pulled the corners of his mouth, and the barbarian of Liang Guo ...... It's ugly.

"Commander Ji said that Master Su studied under Doctor Qin, isn't Doctor Qin from Liang?"

It's Ji Wei again. Su warmly clenched his fists.

Yu Shouzhong nodded and said, "Exactly, but adults never mention it, and I don't want too many people to know." ”

…… She almost raised her sleeves to hide her face.

The military doctor just now knew that he had lost his words, so he hurriedly confessed, and then added: "The villain knows that even if there are nine of the ten Liang people, Doctor Qin will be the one left." ”

Su Huihui laughed and said, "Do all the soldiers in your army really want to fight to Liang State? When I was in Fanjing, I heard that even if the border is now open to trade, there will still be merchants on both sides who quarrel over household registration. ”

"Of course, Beiliang occupies the iron ore in the north of my Great Qi Xuanying Mountain, not to say that it is theirs, and the use of force has been frequent for decades, that is, it has only stopped in recent years. The military doctor slapped the table, filled with righteous indignation, "It is estimated that Emperor Liang's child is dying, I think we will fight in one go, kill him without leaving a piece of armor, and let the men of Liang State be horsemen for Daqi, and women for Daqi as daughters-in-law."

Su Huihui endured it as if he had been stabbed, endured it again and again, and finally said calmly: "Okay, the Qi army has to deal with the Yue Domain first." The third thing I would like to ask you about is to make as many pills and powders as you can according to the means of preventing and controlling the epidemic in March and April every year, so that the soldiers can carry the medicine in their bags. The mountain roads are rugged and difficult to travel, and it is inconvenient to communicate with the outside world, and when the rain comes, I am afraid that there will be chaos in the army. ”

Doctor Wei said, "Your Excellency has been thoughtful, we don't know how long we will stay in the city next, but it is our duty to do our best." ”

After Su Huihui finished explaining, the military doctors felt that although the three things were not difficult, they had to do it quickly because of the amount of labor, so they had to do it quickly, and immediately separated two people to go out and report.

She made up for sleep at noon, so she also went to the inventory as a model, and followed her out of the house. The guard outside the house was about to report, but she stopped and looked closely, as if she was a little familiar.

"You stand still. ”

He Guwei, who had changed into Li Zhouwei's clothes, didn't expect her to recognize her, and stood in place awkwardly.

Su Huihui asked the old military doctor to take the others to rest first, and he and Yu Shouzhong inquired about the location of the warehouse, and went to the east by the sunset.

There were two warehouses in total, one small one was connected to her residence, and the other was next to the martial arts hall. Passing by a strange-looking sand area on the school grounds, Imperial Doctor Yu asked someone, and it turned out that a military attache had been executed in the morning, and the blood was still on the ground, and the water could not be washed clean.

"Your Majesty cut down Commander Xià, such a villain has been in Lizhou Wei for more than ten years, it's really a great shame!"

I don't know how Sheng Yunyi instigated people's hearts, Su Wenhui sighed, that Commander Xie probably disobeyed his wishes and touched the scales.

She thought of him, as if her hair had been burned by fire, and she subconsciously shuddered.

Is he in this camp too?

She paused, and suddenly felt a cold wind whizzing on all sides, and countless eyes staring at her in the dark.

Too unsafe.

The sun was sinking lower and lower, and she gritted her teeth, she still had to go when she should go, otherwise it would be even more ridiculous.

*

Sheng Yunyi was reviewing the paperwork in the room to the east.

The river drum guards are good at looking at their faces, and they don't want to disturb Jinshang at this time, so they all consciously disappear. Outside the house, a guard quietly whispered to Ji Wei, who was serving tea and water, for a moment, and the commander was in trouble, so he hesitated a few times and went in to report.

Ji Wei lifted the curtain, only to see that the dinner on the desk did not move at all. The room is very simple, and now I sit calmly and steadily, as if I am in the agarwood hall.

He pondered the draft, but just as he was about to speak, he sneezed...... Someone scolded him behind his back.

Sheng Yunyi raised his head.

"Your Majesty, Lord Su asked people to buy mussel shells, sesame oil and other things, which seems to be very urgent. The minister thought that it would be better to make an example, so that the military doctors did not have to guard the opening and closing hours of the gate, and they could hurry up and enter the city to prepare. ”

Sheng Yunyi said lightly: "You have thought it through. ”

Ji Wei was a little stunned to see him continue to review, and there was no expression on his face, and he couldn't help but panic.

Outside the house, the sun sank into the bottom of the mountain, and it was getting dark. Sheng Yunyi lit the candle flame and finally spoke:

"Find a few people to go with the medics. The Yue clan was reluctant to bring the 50,000 Nan'an defenders to Suiling, and the ensuing water battle was all about the other side's ships, and the military doctors should know how to treat the wounded. ”

Ji Wei suddenly realized: "It turns out that these things are used to deal with gunpowder injuries, and Master Su guessed that we were going to defend against the enemy on the river." ”

Sheng Yunyi swept the letter at a glance, "Without warships, water battles can't be touched." Fanjing's 100,000 horses have arrived in Yuanping, and they will rush to Yuzhou within half a month, and before that, 6,000 Lizhou guards will hold Suiling. ”

He was completely talking about business, Ji Wei stopped talking about the topic, and said solemnly: "Today's first battle to test that General Wu is the leader of the navy, the first emperor praised him when he was there, saying that he is strong in his ability and meticulous in thinking. The minister thought that the first thing was to boost morale, so that the Li Zhou guards would not be afraid. ”

Sheng Yunyi hooked the corners of his mouth lightly: "Whether it is Sheng Fuyu or this General Wu, the first emperor left them, didn't he deliberately let me deal with them one by one?"

The lanterns crackled and crackled, and he quietly looked at the glimmer of firelight, and said calmly: "The heaviest equipment in water warfare, the role of elite soldiers and strong generals is far less than that in land warfare. If the ship is inferior to the people, no matter how brave the soldier is, he will not win, and if the ship is numerous and strong, the half-hung sailor can also win lightly. Only if the ships are about the same in equipment and in roughly the same number do they need to take into account morale. What did Li Zhouwei say? I didn't intend to waste my strength on water warfare. ”

"Then we need to wait for the imperial court's army to help?" Ji Wei worried: "Otherwise, we will have to work with these people to block the water army under the city wall, Qi Ning still has a total of 24,000 Yue troops...... We only have six thousand, and we are really under attack. ”

Sheng Yunyi lowered his eyes and said: "The left and right Suiling will not stay long, it is better to take out all the firearms in the treasury and stop them from advancing from a high position at the head of the city." Fighting on the water, no matter how elite sailors operate a warship, it will capsize if it is hit by artillery, and if they never use the boat, their chain of boats will be useless. Sending the naval army to take the lead instead of the land guards to surround Suiling is to test the strength of Lizhou Wei, and secondly, to see how we plan. ”

"A qiē listen to His Majesty's orders. ”

Ji Wei couldn't help but want to say something, for example, Master Su was coming to the west now, and he was going to the medicine warehouse next door to count something, and he felt that he was dying.

"Go out if it's okay, this letter will be passed to Mingzhou. ”

Ji Wei had no choice but to hold back his words, and there was only one person left in the room.

Sheng Yunyi's mind was no longer on the paper, and he slowly walked to the window. The canopy of the sky turned dark blue, a few stars were crumbling, the mountains were scarce, and dark clouds were pressing down on the city.

The wind picked up in the school yard, and the dust mixed with the gravel swirled upwards, and the soldiers in the guard house returned to the barracks to rest after dinner. The bangzi struck, and the bonfire of the vigil was lit in the distance, and there was silence everywhere.

He was still standing where he was.

The figure finally came into view, the black dress mixed with the mottled night. She paused in his eyes for a moment, turned her head, didn't notice anything unusual, and walked towards the medicine store with a very fast step.

He breathed a sigh of relief.
