At night, Liu He set up a banquet in the mansion to catch the wind for Hua Tuo's master and apprentice, and not only Liu He's important subordinates came to accompany him, but also scholars Cai Yong and Xu Yue were also invited, which made the therapist and apprentices feel honored and flattered.

Although the healers had the ability to bring the dead back to life, their social status in the late Han Dynasty was not high, at best they were slightly stronger than the kabuki, the lings and the craftsmen, but in the eyes of the high-ranking officials, they were still not in the upper class. Liu He respected and treated Hua Tuo's master and apprentice so much, in addition to asking for divine doctors, he did it more deliberately, and the purpose was to improve the social status of the medical industry.

Accompanied by Guo Jia and Xu Miao and other people who can speak well, the banquet was full of conversation and laughter, Liu He then asked the divine doctor to improvise to teach the guests who came to the banquet the way of health preservation, Hua Tuo did not shirk, pointed out on the spot that Cai Yong suffered from heart and lung disease, Xu Yue needed to prevent head disease, Guo Jia should control sexual affairs, Xu Miao should reduce drinking, and everyone was shocked to listen, so that he knew that the divine doctor was really not a false name, and a pair of eyes could actually see the pain of their hidden diseases. Hua Tuo showed his "Five Bird Opera" used to maintain health and fitness in public, and after Liu He watched it, he felt that it was more profound and profound than the Tai Chi of later generations, so he strongly encouraged everyone to learn this set of health and fitness methods.

In the middle of the night, when all the guests dispersed, Liu He invited Hua Tuo to the study to discuss some long-term matters.

Hua Tuo sat in the high-backed circular chair, tasting the fragrant tea served by Liu He himself, and his mood was particularly happy. Although the divine doctor never asks about political affairs, he cares about the suffering of the people in the world. He came all the way from Xuzhou to Youzhou, and he felt very deeply, and he was very grateful for the benevolent and good governance implemented by Liu Yu's father and son in Youzhou. That's admiration and support from the bottom of my heart.

Liu He said straight to the point: "This time, regardless of the reluctance of the people of Xuzhou, the kid insisted on inviting the divine doctor to Youzhou, and there are really very important things to plan with the divine doctor." ”

Hua Tuo nodded and said: "The name of Gongzi's benevolence has long spread all over the world, and Hua learned the art of Qihuang to cure diseases and save people, since Youzhou and Jizhou need me to come, I should try my best to do something for the people of the two states." to do our best. ”

"Before Mr. Yuanhua arrived, I thought about it again and again, and felt that there were three things that I needed your help with. First. I also ask Mr. to relieve the threat of the epidemic in Youzhou; Second, please ask Mr. and a few high-ranking people to go to the army to teach first aid to our army's medical doctors; Third, Mr. Yuanhua has a wide range of knowledge. Excellence in the medical road. In order to make what Mr. has learned for thousands of years, I intend to establish a special medical college in Jicheng, recruit disciples for Mr., write books and words, collect all kinds of herbs in the world, and provide various experimental conditions for Mr. to benefit the common people! ”

When Hua Tuo heard the first and second requests made by Liu He, he could still deal with them calmly. But when he heard Liu He say that he wanted to establish a college specializing in medical skills for him, he was not only moved. Rarely showed a look of excitement. If Liu He really founded a medical college for Hua Tuo, it would be equivalent to helping Hua Tuo realize the "three stands" in life at the same time, which is simply unimaginable.

Hua Tuo got up, bowed down to Liu He, and said: "Gongzi attaches so much importance to medicine, I thank Gongzi for the world's doctors!" ”

Subsequently, Liu He had an in-depth conversation with Hua Tuo, and told all the knowledge about medicine in his previous life that he vaguely remembered, although it seemed fragmented and messy, but it also made the divine doctor feel a lot of inspiration, even amazement, or nod frequently.

For example, Liu He believes that the content of medical Taoism involves a wide range of subjects, and various medical classics and prescriptions are even more vast, and if every doctor has to study all of them from beginning to end, without decades of hard work, it is impossible to hang a plaque to practice medicine, so it is necessary to divide the medical Tao into specialties, subdivided into internal medicine, surgery, pediatrics, gynecology and other subjects, and then let the medical students specialize in one subject for practice.

For another example, Liu He believes that it is very important to promote the basic knowledge of disease prevention and prevention, and it should be regarded as a long-term and basic matter, and only when ordinary people understand the basic common sense of healing, they will not believe in divination, witch doctors and other gods and ghosts.

Hua Tuo was particularly interested in Liu He's statement that there were a large number of tiny creatures in the air that could not be seen by the eyes, and he could be sure that Liu He's statement was correct based on his years of medical experience, but he could not provide real evidence for the time being. Liu He also believes that people who practice medicine must first be hygienic and clean to ensure that they are not infected by germs, otherwise they will not only not be able to save people, but will even become a source of infection. Hua Tuo also deeply agrees with this, feeling that many peers are infected by patients because they do not pay attention to their own epidemic prevention and disease prevention, and finally the doctor dies.

Unconsciously, Liu He and Hua Tuo talked freely about the second half of the night, if it weren't for the fear of hurting the vitality of the eldest prince, the divine doctor was afraid that he would have to talk to him until dawn.

On the afternoon of the second day, Liu He accompanied Hua Tuo's master and apprentice to visit Yenching University, which had officially taken classes, and when the divine doctor saw the running and jumping figures on the Keju field, the young students wielding swords in the kendo hall, and the various novel designs and tools in the experimental hall, he had an impulse to do a big job.

Hua Tuo asked Liu He: "Can I put my books in the library in the future?" ”

Liu He replied: "The library is not for Confucianism, as long as there are new works in all walks of life, they will be included and placed in it!" ”

Hua Tuo was very satisfied with Liu He's answer, and his heart was even more determined to preach and teach his disciples.

A few days later, Liu He left Jicheng with Hua Tuo's master and apprentice and went to Macheng to inspect together.

Zhao Yun succeeded Liu He as the official captain of Wuhuan, and after he learned that Liu He led the crowd to come to Shanggu and Daijun to inspect, he attached great importance to it, not only sent the deputy general Xiahou Lan to lead two thousand elite cavalry to wait outside Juyong Pass to wait for him, but also laid a large number of fast horse secret spies along the way, and always paid attention to the position of Liu He and his party.

Among the team that accompanied Liu He to the west, there were not only Guo Jia, Tian Chou, Xu Miao, and Murong Ping, but also a full 10,000 Dragon and Tiger Guard soldiers to escort them, in fact, there was no need for Xiahou Lan to come to greet them, and Liu He's trip this time was so exciting, it was not in line with his usual style of acting, unless there was a major change.

The road from Jicheng to Macheng has been thoroughly strengthened and widened within this year, and six carriages can run in parallel. Although the continuous drought has reduced Youzhou's grain production by more than half, Liu He's spare labor has been invested in the construction of various infrastructures, and this wide road to the western border of Youzhou is one of the important projects. According to Liu He's vision, the road is now only half complete, and when Youzhou can produce Portland cement on a large scale next year, he will have to pour a solid cement road on top of the existing roadbed that can pass for decades.

With this wide and smooth road, we can not only quickly mobilize troops, but also greatly promote trade in commercial goods, and also greatly facilitate the logistics and transportation of troops.

In a spacious carriage in the position of the Chinese army, Liu He and Guo Jia sat opposite each other, and a small square table was placed in the middle, on which a small military map was spread.

"Fengxiao, why do I feel panicked in my heart?" Liu He said slowly.

"What do you mean by Childe?" Guo Jia raised his head and looked at Liu He with some confusion.

Liu He pulled his face and complained: "When the enemy was defeated in the water, there were 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses stationed on the western front of Youzhou, and now after five years of hard work, the number of soldiers under my command who can fight has reached more than 150,000, but this time in order to deal with the southbound Kebineng, the total number of troops we can mobilize is still not more than 30,000, don't you think this is a very frustrating thing to think about?" ”

Guo Jia said a little angrily: "The battle plan was agreed to after you personally reviewed it, but now you have to complain about your lack of soldiers...... The situation this time is completely different from five years ago, at the beginning, Youzhou was just trying to protect itself, and this time you deliberately exposed your flaws to lure Kebi to go south! If we postpone the plan to attack Liao, we can immediately send 20,000 horses from the Zhenbei Army and the Duliao Army to the Western Front for reinforcements, and if we still feel that the soldiers and horses are insufficient, we can also transfer the Youyan Army from Jizhou to the Western Front. ”

Liu He knew that Guo Jia was squeezing himself with words, so he said with a smile: "You have set the battle plan this time, and if something goes wrong at that time, it will be you Guo Dajun who will be embarrassed in front of the generals." ”

Guo Jia had already made a bamboo in his chest, and said indifferently: "As long as the prince dares to use himself as bait and has been sitting in Macheng, this custody will make the Xianbei people suffer a big loss!" ”

It turned out that Liu He went to Macheng this time to deal with Kebineng, the leader of the small Xianbei race who had become strong again in the northern grassland. Seeing that the attack on Gongsun Du of Liaodong was imminent, Liu He was worried that Yuan Shao and Kebi would be able to collude with the north and south and add trouble to themselves on the western front of Youzhou, so he deliberately let people release false news to the north a few months ago, saying that Youzhou had a great drought this year, and countless people had died of hunger, and now the internal situation was unstable, and there were rebellions everywhere, so he deliberately lured Kebineng to lead the people to attack Youzhou.

After the defeat of the water in the revenge last time, Kebi Neng returned to the northern grassland to learn from the pain, lying on his salary and tasting his courage, and spent his main energy on expanding to the west and north, after five years of bloody battles, now has completely unified the small Xianbei in the central part, with hundreds of large and small tribes under his command, and nearly 100,000 people who control the strings.

Soon after the news of the great drought and locust plague in Youzhou reached the northern desert, an envoy secretly sent by Yuan Shao also came to meet Kebineng secretly. Yuan Shao's envoy told Kebineng that once Liu He captured the territory of Gongsun Du of Liaodong, he would be able to annex Liaodong Xianbei in a turn, and once Liaodong Xianbei perished, Central Xianbei would become Liu He's next target.

Ke Bi Neng is eloquent and strategic, and naturally knows that what Yuan Shao's envoy said is not a lie, and Liu He's actions in the past few years are enough to prove that he has been adopting a strategy of gradual encroachment to advance northward, if he takes Liaodong, which is rich in natural resources, it will really be a nightmare for the entire Xianbei people.

Kebineng felt that he now had the strength to fight Liu He, so he adopted the advice of Yuan Shao's secret envoy and began to reorganize the tribal troops and horses in the north, preparing to attack and plunder in the south again. (To be continued......)
