Chapter 23: The Cruelty of War

Tang Zheng didn't know that he was being discussed on the other side, and at this time he was observing the treatment of the wounded soldiers in the wounded barracks.

"What is this, you just wrap it right around the wound? And what did you put on him? How does it smell of quicklime? Tang Zheng asked the military doctor.

"Childe, this is gauze for wounds, and this is willow branch water for disinfection, which has lime in it, so it smells of quicklime." The medic replied.

Tang Zheng was dumbfounded when he heard this, although he was not a doctor in his previous life, but he had also trained mine rescuers and knew some basic common sense.

At least he knew that the gauze wrapped around the wound should be sterilized, but the military doctor in front of him directly took the gauze and wrapped it around the wound of the wounded and wrapped it very tightly, Tang Zheng couldn't stand it anymore, he was afraid that these soldiers did not die on the battlefield but died of wound infection, in fact, in this backward era of medical and logistics, there are many more soldiers who die of wound infection than soldiers who die on the battlefield.

Tell people to take the rest of the gauze to the kitchen and cook it in a pot, and make sure the water is boiled and boiled, and the pot must be washed and there should be no oil stars.

In the incomprehensible gaze of everyone, Tang Zheng forcibly arranged it. Looking at the wailing soldiers in the wounded barracks, Tang Zheng's heart was like a knife, just because of his own order, so many people were injured, and some even died, and I don't know how many people will be injured and die in the future.

Wu Yifan, who was accompanying Tang Zheng, saw Tang Zheng's hideous expression and knew that he was not very good in his heart, but he said: "If you want to open a little, if you want to harvest, how can there be such a good thing without paying, these people are already the best, at least you have done your best to treat them, in the past, in order to reduce the burden of logistics, the wounded soldiers were thrown to the injured barracks, and the court was lost, and if the wounded soldiers wanted to live, it depended on whether they had a big life." Now at least you can ask a doctor to heal, in fact, as long as these wounded soldiers do not die, they will be soldiers, only these veterans who have experienced life and death are the treasures of an army, these truths are understood by many generals, but the cost of healing a wounded soldier is too great, so no one does it. If you can guarantee that every wounded soldier of yours will receive such healing, I'm sure you'll have a Hundred Battles Lions in the future. ”

"I don't want any Hundred Battles Heroes, since I brought them out, I want to bring them back safely."

"You are not a general's attitude at all, for the general, you must cherish your soldiers, but you can't blindly be a woman's kindness, what should be sacrificed must be sacrificed, otherwise this will ruin an army because of a little thing." Wu Yifan said with some hatred that iron does not become steel.

"I never thought of being handsome or anything, I just want the people around me to be full, is this also wrong, Brother Wu, have you ever thought about such a world, where there is too much food to eat, even if you feed the livestock, you can eat better than these people now, people not only have meat to eat at every meal, but also swim in the sea, fly in the sky, and can change the taste. By the way, people can also go to heaven and earth, where there is not so much oppression, and people will reap the rewards as long as they are willing to work. You don't have to worry about someone coming to rob you, and you don't have to worry about eating this meal and not having the next meal. Tang Zheng looked at the sky and said to Wu Yifan, who opened his mouth wide.

"Is there such a place? Have you seen it?" Wu Yifan asked.

"No, this is where I imagined it to be, and it is also the direction in which I am striving for this goal." Wu Yifan, Tang Zheng, Tang Zheng, maybe there must be such a place, Tang Zheng must have been there, but Tang Zheng didn't say it.

These Tang Zheng can't tell others, he can't tell people that he is from the world more than a thousand years later, no one believes or doesn't say it, and it is estimated that he will be regarded as a madman.

Tang Zheng packed up his emotions and walked back to the camp with Wu Yifan. When Tang Zheng returned to the camp tent, he saw an unexpected person, he didn't see him when he entered the city, and he didn't expect him to run to the barracks.

"Brother Tian, I haven't seen you for a long time, I didn't expect us to meet again in such a way." Tang Zheng said to Tian Chou that the person who appeared in the barracks was Tian Chou.

"Brother Tang, don't come unharmed, the younger brother went out to move the rescue soldiers a few days ago, the rescuers didn't find it, I don't want Brother Tang to bring someone to come to the end, I knew that I would go to the mound to find Brother Tang. The younger brother thanked Brother Tang for his kindness to the people of Endless Ending. ”

"Brother Tian is polite, I was originally a court official, although I was only a small county lieutenant, but the rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband. It was our duty to put down the rebellion, so Brother Tian said thank you. Tang Zheng said to Tian Chou.

"The rise and fall of a country is the responsibility of the husband, if the officials of the Han Dynasty have the integrity of the Tang brothers, why will the Han Dynasty be so erosive. Brother Tang is really a role model for my generation. ”

"Brother Tian has a reputation, I am just the duty, now the Yellow Turban Bandits are in trouble, everyone is punished, in the final analysis, the root of the problem is still in the imperial court, even if the Yellow Turban rebellion is extinguished, if the imperial court is still so unrepentant, sooner or later there will be a greater disaster. Okay, don't talk about this, the old people meet, but they can't drink and talk about it, Brother Tian can't drink in the army, and when this war is over, he will definitely have a drink with Brother Tian. Tang Zheng said to Tian Chou.

"Brother Tang is polite, I didn't come today to drink with Brother Tang, first, to thank Brother Tang for his help, and secondly, to see if Brother Tang has any place to use the little brother, and the little brother can also contribute a little bit of his meager strength."

"It's good that Brother Tian has this heart, there are just some small things to trouble Brother Tian, the army is full of rough people, it may be okay to let them fight, but managing logistics is not reassuring, since Brother Tian has this heart, I will entrust this logistics to Brother Tian, but it will be hard for Brother Tian during this time."

"Brother Tang's words, I can dedicate a little bit of strength to the soldiers, and the little brother can't ask for it." Tang Zheng and Tian Chou discussed, it was best for Tang Zheng to hand over the logistics to Tian Chou to deal with, although Tian Chou is still young, he is quite familiar with civil affairs.

"By the way, Brother Tian, can you find some wine? I am useful, and I can only trouble Brother Tian if I have no alcohol in the army. Tang Zheng stopped Tian Chou, who was just about to pay the bill, and asked.

"What does Brother Tang want to drink? Is it just good wine or just wine? Tian Chou didn't understand why Tang Zheng just said that he couldn't drink alcohol in the army, so why he had to find wine for him now.

"It doesn't have to be good wine, as long as it's wine, I have an idea that I need to use wine, and if I can't find it, it's fine."

"Since it's all about wine, I'll go back and take a look, although it's hard to find good wine now, I should be able to find a lot of ordinary wine."

"Then everything will trouble Brother Tian."

"You're welcome, I'll go back first if there's nothing else to do, and I'll definitely bring the wine to Brother Tang tomorrow." After speaking, Tian Chou and Tang Zheng confessed and went out.

Tang Zheng suddenly asked Tian Chou for wine, just to see if he could make alcohol, although he didn't understand winemaking, but he knew that a lot of high-grade liquor was distilled, and he couldn't make the alcohol of later generations, and it was better to make some high-grade liquor than to disinfect it with quicklime and willow branch water now.

"What's going on on the other side?" Tang Zheng asked Zhang Chao.

"Childe, there has been no movement on the other side since the attack was launched in the morning, and now their camp tent is quietly devoid of the noise of the past."

"Well, it is estimated that they were beaten this morning, and they will not attack for the time being until they come up with a way to deal with the Modao Battalion, but the vigilance cannot be relaxed, and the order is to let the scouts strengthen their vigilance, and report any movement on the other side immediately."

"No" Zhang Chao agreed, and immediately turned around to arrange, now Tang Zheng's scout battalion has grown from the original thirty-six to one hundred and two, these people Tang Zheng has also been training in accordance with the way of special forces in later generations, Tang Zheng wants to create a special forces force that is unique in this world.

"Tell me all about it, what can be done to deal with that strange infantry on the other side, there is not much time left before the Great Sage and Good Division, we can't just stalemate." Deng Mao said to the people in the account.

"General, the foot soldiers on the other side are really the best we have seen in our lives, it is better for us to give up and attack other counties without end, I think such a soldier must not be easy to get, it is estimated that there are not many of them, it is impossible to arrange a large number of such soldiers in every city, since we have no way to eat this place, it is better for us to attack other places and catch him off guard." Xu Xian, a military advisor, said.

"I don't know where you said about the attack, but what the goal is, besides, if we can walk the other side, don't we have long legs, if we just retreat with the front foot, they will kill from behind, how to resist, you also saw the terrible combat power of this foot soldier."

"General, the last general is willing to lead people to drag the other party to buy time for the withdrawal of the army." At this time, Wang Tong stood up and took the initiative to ask for battle.

Deng Mao glanced at Wang Tong and said, "Since everyone is in favor of attacking other counties, there is a goal. ”

"General, we can attack Xu Wu, which is a little far away from Wu Wu, and there are not many troops, and the enemy will not think that our next target will be Xu Wu." Xu Xian said.

"Well, since this is the case, let's go down and make arrangements, but keep it secret in advance, the target city of this time must not be told to anyone in advance, and it will be a violation of military law. Wang Tong: I will leave 10,000 pioneer battalions for you this time, and you must drag the other party for me. ”

"Yes, my subordinates must live up to their mission this time, if they can't do it, the general will come to see me." Wang Tong wanted Deng Mao to promise.

"You don't have to take the initiative to attack, as long as you pin the opponent here, even if you complete the task, I also know that the opponent's strength is strong, and it is not something that the vanguard battalion can resist." Deng Mao said to Wang Tong.

"When we take down Xu Wu and collect enough grain and grass, we can gather more people and horses, and then come to this Tang Zheng to settle accounts."

"Subordinates obey." The crowd replied. After some arrangement, Deng Mao was ready to run away to Xu Wu. Tang Zheng, who was on the other side, didn't know anything about this matter, and was busy preparing the utensils for distilling liquor at this time.
