Chapter 12: The Man (Middle)

Zhu Chongjiu was influenced by the thinking of later generations, and from the bottom of his heart, he believed that the value of talents was far higher than weapons, but these words were heard in the ears of Fu Youde at this moment, but they were out-and-out gifts of national soldiers, and immediately, the latter was moved to the point of hot eyes, gritted his teeth, choked and said: "The lord is so important, even if the end will be, even if he is broken, it will be difficult to repay in case, if he can lead the army to the expedition one day, the end will definitely make these fifty cannons, each ten times its value." ”

"You don't have to worry, as long as you resist this round of onslaught, within three years, Zhu will definitely cross the Yellow River and repay this blood debt for his father and fellow villagers, and at that time, you will have the opportunity to lead the troops alone!" Zhu Chongjiu smiled, full of pride.

It's not that he is blindly optimistic, according to the news he got through various channels, the Mengyuan court's southern expedition can be said to have concentrated the strength of the country, as long as the Huai'an army can successfully defeat the 300,000 army of Tokto, in the next year or two, the Mengyuan court will definitely not be able to move another battle of the same scale, and with a buffer time of one or two years, the Yangtze River Lecture Wutang will be able to train officers at all levels in rotation, the first batch of freshmen of Huaiyang Baigong Technical School and Huaiyang Fuxue will graduate, and Huaiyang's new workshops will bloom all over the canal. The new mode of production and the mode of warfare will grow from a seedling to a big tree, and will still practice the fourth-class slavery system, and will be far behind the times.

"I am willing to lead a first and build a bridge for the Lord's open road." Fu Youde was agitated when he heard this, arched his hand, and said loudly.

"Okay, let's give a high-five." Zhu Chongjiu stretched out his hand and invited Fu Youde.

"High fives for vows." Fu Youde stretched out his right hand with red eyes and struck Zhu Chongjiu's palm three times, full of pride.

After the blow, he quickly returned his gaze to the reality in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and admonished in a very low voice, "Lord, Lord, I haven't seen Li Pingzhang in the past few days, if I can spare my efforts, I will persuade the lord to go to Huai'an Medical Center a few times, and some people are waiting to receive Li Pingzhang's letter." ”

Sesame Li was not treated in time because of an arrow wound more than two months ago, and the sepsis entered the blood, although Zhu Chongjiu was immediately sent to the Huai'an Medical Center after being picked up from Mangdang Mountain, but with the medical level of this era, whether it can improve depends entirely on whether God can be gracious, so in the past two months, Zhu Chongjiu will run to the hospital almost as soon as he takes out time, and all the antibacterial methods he knows will be entrusted to the Han family and the big food Langzhong in the hospital hall as long as he can, however, The situation is still not very optimistic, (Note 1)

What's even more depressing is that in Huai'an City, not only the meticulous work of the Mengyuan Imperial Court is looking forward to Sesame Li dying as soon as possible, some combat laymen, but good at scheming, almost live in the medical hall, just waiting for Sesame Li to designate an heir, and unceremoniously inherit the entire East Road Red Scarf, including Huaiyang, Suzhou, Mengcheng, Haozhou and other places.

Although Zhu Chongjiu hates fighting in the nest, it is related to the future exhibition of the Huai'an Army, and he can't make too many concessions, so after listening to Fu Youde's reminder, his eyes suddenly darkened, and the excitement in his heart was washed away in a blink of an eye, "The war has been relatively tight recently, and it takes about two to three days to go to the medical hall once, Li Pingzhang's situation is okay, Doctor Semu, doesn't it mean that he has a great hope of surviving this hurdle." ”

"I don't know how to heal, but I'm afraid it's not easy, alas." Fu Youde sighed lightly and responded in a low voice, "The key still depends on Li Pingzhang himself, his mentality is somewhat similar to that of the last general, and he doesn't care much about whether he is healed or not." ”

More than two months ago, including the Suzhou army, more than 100,000 elite red scarves, all swallowed by the Yellow River, this fiasco, from both physical and mental aspects, completely crushed Sesame Li, as a very high-spirited leader of the rebel army, he even thinks that it is his own incompetence that led so many brothers to die in the belly of the fish, and the only way to atone for his sins is to donate his life and accompany the brothers to Huangquan.

Zhu Chongjiu had already noticed Sesame Li's self-defeating mentality a long time ago, but he couldn't come up with any good way to enlighten him for a while, in addition, Meng Yuan's 300,000 army was eyeing the other side of the river, and he couldn't allow him to focus all his energy on Sesame Li alone, so after coming and going, the relationship between the two sides became increasingly distant in the eyes of outsiders, and the issue of the inheritance of the red scarf on the East Road became increasingly suspenseful.

After listening to Fu Youde's words today, Zhu Chongjiu sighed a few more faintly, and then said in a low voice, "Then I'll go to the hospital to visit him now, just right, you also take advantage of this moment to take the second elder to the mansion next to my Huai'an Governor's Mansion, there were several courtyards vacated some time ago, I asked Hong San to vacate one for you, after you come back, just look for him." ”

"Mr. Xie." Fu Youde was happy again, and he was grateful.

"Go ahead, don't let the second elder wait in a hurry." Zhu Chongjiu smiled and waved his hand, signaling that Fu Youde could go to work by himself, and then called Xu Hongsan and ordered the other party to help Fu Youde settle his family, and then packed his bags, asked his soldiers to buy some fresh melons and fruits, and strode towards the medical hall.

Sesame Li looked pretty good today, he was reclining on the sickbed, and asked the great light to make Tang Zihao use the tortoise shell to divinate himself, and when he heard Zhu Chongjiu's greeting, he immediately raised his head and said very happily, "Brother Zhu, why did you come here again, didn't I tell you, the war is important, don't waste your efforts on my dying person." ”

"Chief, where did this come from?" For the leader of the red scarf in front of him, who has always done his best to support and tolerate him, Zhu Chongjiu has always had some respect in his heart, shook his head, and responded with a smile, "No matter how busy the general is, he won't have time to visit you Lao, but he can't stay here every day to accompany and serve." ”

"Don't come." Sesame Li laughed and waved his hand, "If you serve me at the sickbed every day, Li will definitely have to leave another scolding behind him, damn it, but it delayed the anti-Yuan event of my red scarf." ”

The chief manager laughed. Zhu Chongjiu didn't hear the language in the other party's words, shook his head with a smile, walked to the bed, and arranged the pillow behind his back for Sesame Li, "Do you feel better, you should take medicine in time, don't procrastinate, don't make Lang Zhong embarrassed, and don't believe those things that pretend to be ghosts." ”

"I know, I'm not idle and bored, and I'm going to have some fun for myself." Sesame Li was arrested, added with a smile, and then turned his gaze to Tang Zihao, who was full of embarrassment, and waved his hand gently, "You go out first, I have something to say to Brother Zhu in private." ”

"Yes." Tang Zihao glared at Zhu Chongjiu dissatisfied, put away the tortoise shell, and left backwards.

"I can't get used to him pretending to be a ghost, isn't it?" Before the sound of his footsteps disappeared outside the door, Sesame Li smiled again, looked into Zhu Chongjiu's eyes and asked.

In Zhu Chongjiu's view, it is definitely not a rational move to ask for a god stick when he is sick, so he does not hide his thoughts from Sesame Li, "You also know that I don't respect this, right now in our Yangzhou workshop, we can already make something called a magnifying glass, and it won't take too long to find out the culprit of various diseases." ”

"I know, a bowl of water in the Buddha's view, 84,000 insects?" Sesame Li smiled again and followed Zhu Chongjiu's words and said.

"That's pretty much what it means." I didn't expect Sesame Li's comprehension ability to be so strong, Zhu Chongjiu was stunned, and nodded with a smile, "At the moment, the magnifying glass we made is not multiplied, and I don't have much effort to tinker with the craftsmen, otherwise, if you build a few microscopes, you can clearly understand the causes of many diseases, anyway, it is useful to wipe the wound with alcohol, and the patient's own physique and mentality also determine the speed of recovery. ”

"I know, I know." Sesame Li dodged Zhu Chongjiu's gaze like a child who had done something wrong, "I don't need your microscope, I know it very well in my heart, it's better to ask God and worship Buddha, it's better to ask for yourself, but"

Sighing softly, he added very seriously, "This Mingjiao is not useless, although it seems to you to be pretending to be a ghost, but after all, it has aroused so many people, let them raise their knives and rebel with our brothers, instead of continuing to be slaughtered by the Tartars like livestock." ”

Zhu Chongjiu had never looked at the role of Mingjiao from such an angle, and for a while, he couldn't find any words to refute it.

Looking at his stunned appearance, Sesame Li smiled, his face full of pride, "The city is full of fire, and the government is hiding everywhere; There is no one in the city, the Red Army Mansion is sitting, the longest thing in my Lao Li's life is that he finally made another rebellion, killed countless dog officials, and robbed countless big households, it's a pity"

Thinking of the more than 100,000 brothers who were swallowed by the Yellow River, the smile on his face quickly faded, "It's a pity that my old Li was negligent, and he just started his career, and he fell into the way of the Tartars." ”

"Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and the chief don't have to blame himself too much, no one would have thought that the Tartars would lose their conscience so much." Hearing that Sesame Li Qing turned sharply, Zhu Chongjiu hurriedly spoke out to comfort him.

"But the brothers die only once." Sesame Li glanced at him, shook his head with a miserable smile, "As soon as I closed my eyes in the past two days, I dreamed that the brothers came to me, and asked me to take them with me to create the rebellion of the king of Hades, eighty-one, my time is running out, in fact, if you don't come today, I will also send someone to call you, I, I can't hold on anymore, in the future, whether our Red Turban Army on the East Road can achieve positive results depends on you." ”

"Ah,,。h Zhu Chongjiu didn't expect that Sesame Li would suddenly have the idea of passing on the throne, so he was so frightened that he immediately stood up and arched his hand to refuse, "The chief manager is slow, I just asked Lang Zhong, you don't have any problems with your body and bones, besides, Manager Zhao, Manager Peng and Manager Mao, the qualifications and merits of the three of them are above me, and the chief manager must not trust the wrong person." ”

"You kid." Sesame Li glanced at him and shook his head tiredly, "Since the first time our brothers met, they refused to say a word of truth, if I pass on the throne to Zhao Jun, can you obey him, or Peng Da, Mao Gui and a few of them, have the ability to subdue this group of arrogant soldiers under your command, my Lao Li has killed so many brothers, I can't hurt anymore, no matter how harmful, even if I go down to the eighteenth layer of hell, I can't redeem it." ”
