Volume 1: Who Breaks the Void by the Stars Chapter 178 Helping the Wounded and Saving the Dead Discusses Crimes
He was inevitably sick and uncomfortable.
The letter said that Nan Jiyun came to Hongji City to ask for help, but Huangfu Weiming refused to send reinforcements, and only he came to ask for help, perhaps Huangfu Weiming saw that he was the envoy of the Son of Heaven, so he would take the life and death of the soldiers and civilians in the city to heart.
The resentment in the letter jumped on the paper, and it was clear to see the emperor as if he was sitting on pins and needles.
Using Huachengcheng as bait was Ye Chang and Gao Shi's plan, but Ye Chang and Gao Shi suggested that he first ambush Wang Rare outside the Jishi Army, and then personally led the main force to raid Dog Rong halfway, and after Dog Rong was frustrated, he could only retreat to the Jishi Army, and then was ambushed by Wang Rare again outside the Jishi Army.
In this way, if you strike twice in a row, the fighting spirit of the dog is exhausted, and you can take advantage of the situation to capture the Jishi Army.
However, the emperor changed his strategy without telling him, and let the main force of the dog Rong ignore it, and directly stole the Jishi army, and then raided the stone fort and surrounded the stone fort city. After the attack on the stone fort city, Huangfu Weiming left an army to besiege it, and he turned back to clean up the main force of the dog Rong.
Originally, Huangfu Weiming wanted to put the blame on Ye Chang, who offered advice, but now that Bian Lingcheng is dead, the nature of the matter has changed.
Bian Lingcheng ...... Ambassador Bian, how could he ...... Ye Chang, why did you let him out of the city?"
"The lowly post has not slept for four consecutive days, and the dog is attacking very urgently, and the lowly post and the official has little power, so he is really powerless." Ye Chang sighed and said: "Originally, I thought that at most, as long as it took one day and one night, the reinforcements of the Imperial Doctor would arrive, and the lowly post also sent Nanba to report to the doctor......
"You're complaining about me," Huangfu Weiming was angry.
Nan Jiyun came to ask for help, he had already heard about it, if Bian Lingcheng was not dead, this request for help was not successful, and it could be said that the military situation was critical, but now that Bian Lingcheng is dead, then he will be charged with not saving him when he dies.
With a gloomy face, he stood up and walked around the room. Although he has been operating in Longyou for several years, most of the generals here cannot be said to be his henchmen, so it is impossible to completely conceal Bian Lingcheng's affairs.
The only way to do this is to explain things in his favor.
Looking at Ye Chang, who was still kneeling on one knee, Huangfu Weiming waved his hand impatiently: "You go down first"
Ye Chang got up and was about to leave, but the king over there shouted: "Slow, slow, Doctor Huangfu, the dispatch of the wounded barracks ......"
Huangfu Weiming's heart was in turmoil, where could he still take care of the wounded soldiers, he waved his hand: "It's up to you." ”
Wang Rare immediately stepped forward and took Ye Chang's hand affectionately: "Ye joined the army, I heard that you take good care of the wounded soldiers in Huacheng City, and now there are many wounded soldiers in our army, I am afraid that you will have to work hard." ”
"It should work." Ye Chang said: "The soldiers killed themselves to serve the country, I have no power to kill the enemy, I can do something for the soldiers here, and I can do my part." ”
"Ye joined the army, you are too humble, Yang Jinghui said, you also went to the city, personally killed two dog Rong, how can you say that you have no power to kill the enemy, and you killed more than 1,000 dog Rong with more than 300 casualties of your own, this is the work of commanding the battle, how can you not run away from your ......"
Wang rarely pulled Ye Chang out of the door, and his voice came in, and Huangfu Weiming heard it and his heart moved.
Wang is rarely right, this time Ye Chang's situation, Huangfu Weiming even if he wants to suppress it, it is difficult for him to suppress, his merits are obvious to all, and he is quite popular with the military, and he has a good relationship with Bian Lingcheng, so if you want to turn things into advantages, you must also use his strength.
But don't rush it for now, and let's take a look......
Out of his own face, Huangfu Weiming did not immediately recall Ye Chang back. After discussing with a few henchmen for a while, and being busy with military affairs, it was only in the evening that he took time to go southwest of Hongji City.
Originally, the wounded soldiers were placed in various battalions, but after Ye Chang took over the disposal of the wounded soldiers, he opened up a piece of land in the southwest of the city and used it as a camp for wounded soldiers. At the same time, the Langzhong in each army were all transferred and concentrated, and a few Langzhong brought by Ye Chang Zihua Chengcheng have now become teachers, teaching these Langzhong the basic sanitation and disinfection.
As soon as Huangfu Weiming arrived, he smelled a strong smell of wine. This made him frown: "Although it is a wounded barracks, how can it smell so heavy of alcohol."
The entourage didn't know why, but at this moment, they saw a man rushing out of a certain tent, holding a gourd in his hand, and looking up at a mouthful, the smell of wine in the gourd could be smelled from afar.
"General Wang, this is not wine, this is medicine, why did you drink it secretly?" Ye Chang's voice followed.
It was Wang Rare who grabbed the gourd, he didn't notice Huangfu Weiming and his party, and said to Ye Chang with a smile: "I know that the Tao is medicine, don't I test the medicine for the wounded soldiers......"
"Alas...... If it is good wine, after the war, I will offer a few jars of drunken yellow sorghum with you, this medicinal wine is not easy to come by, you steal a bite, and the wounded soldiers will have one less, besides, what does the medicinal wine taste like, it is ...... strong"
Ye Chang was about to nag, then he saw Huangfu Weiming turn around, and after being stunned for a moment, he bowed: "Doctor Huangfu"
"Don't lie to me...... Ahh
It was rare for the king to look back, and when he saw that it was really Huangfu Weiming, he immediately hid the gourd back, and Huangfu Weiming had a smile on his face: "I have looked at what is hidden."
Unlike Yang Jinghui, Wang is rare to be described as Huangfu Weiming's confidant, even if he knows that he violates military discipline and steals wine here, Huangfu Weiming is not willing to scold.
He opened the curtain and was about to enter the tent, but saw Ye Chang stretching out his hand to stop him: "Doctor, slow, this is the camp for the seriously injured, the most taboo is infection, if the doctor wants to go in, please change his clothes first." ”
Huangfu Weiming only noticed at this time that the clothes on Ye Chang and Wang Rare were pure white, like a long robe.
"Pay more attention to ......," one of Huangfu Weiming's entourage couldn't help but say.
"Life is at stake, and you must pay attention to it." Ye Chang explained.
"Oh, what do you mean?" Huangfu Weiming was very interested.
"On top of the human body, there is sickness, but if we are strong, we can naturally resist sickness. However, the seriously wounded are weak, and if the sickness in our body spreads, they may not be able to bear it. Ye Chang explained as much as possible in a way that could be understood by people at this time: "I call this kind of disease spread as infection. ”
"A white coat can stop the infection?"
"Naturally insufficient, there are masks, gloves, as far as possible do not directly contact with the wounded, especially do not touch the wounds of the injured."
"What if Lang Zhong wants to treat it?"
"This is the effect of Fangcai's medicinal wine, which is strong to yang, and can remove sickness." Ye Chang pointed to the gourd in Wang Tian's hand: "I came to Longyou this time, and I didn't bring anything else, but I was afraid that this medicinal wine would be useful, so I brought some ......."
Huangfu Weiming knew that Ye Chang had brought a lot of things, Ye Chang joined the army alone, but he brought his own servant family, as well as Li Bai Gaoshi, etc., there were more than 20 people in their line, and the horse and camel team was twice as much.
"Original...... This guy is not completely arrogant, everything is predetermined, and he thought that there might be injuries before he came...... If it weren't for his mouthful of gibberish, he would have been able to admit it. Huangfu Weiming thought secretly in his heart, and then took the white suit handed by Ye Chang and covered it on his body.
followed by masks and gloves, this set of equipment came down, and Huangfu Weiming felt that it was novel.
After entering the camp tent, I saw a stove in the middle, which warmed the room, and more than 20 piled beds were lined up left and right, and Lang Zhong, who was also dressed in white, helped the wounded one by one.
At the head of each wounded person's bed, there was also a small clip hanging and a piece of paper, and Huangfu Weiming leaned up to see that it was the wounded's injuries and diagnosis and treatment methods, as well as the wounded's medication.
"Many of the wounded's injuries can actually be saved, and they only need to avoid infection in a clean environment, warm food to replenish nutrition, and sincere care." Ye Chang followed him, sighed and said, "However, we still lack experience, so our means are limited, otherwise we can reduce the mortality rate of the seriously injured to less than 20%. ”
Huangfu Weiming will be skeptical about this, if he can really do it, it will be great.
The survival rate of the seriously wounded was less than 20% before, and most of them died silently in pain, if they can really be rescued, this is of great significance, it can be said that it is a earth-shaking change for the Datang military. It is important to know that the seriously wounded are all veterans who have been on the battlefield and have experienced, and the fact that they survived means that the rear can recruit two fewer recruits
Over the years, the Tang Dynasty has been in constant border conflicts, and although it has as many as 600,000 troops, there is still a shortage of veterans.
"If this is the case, Ye joins the army, and your merits will not be inferior to the founding generals." Huangfu Weiming said: "I will play this matter tomorrow, even if it does not reach the level you said, only half, it is enough to be knighted."
His words made Ye Chang stunned, a little strange.
Huangfu Weiming's attitude towards Ye Chang has never been good, and in terms of contribution, he even played Ye Chang's hand, but at this time, it is like this, and it is praise and praise, this kind of change does not seem to be something that can be reversed by an injury camp.
If you are courteous to others, you will ask for something. Thinking of Bian Lingcheng's matter, Ye Chang sneered in his heart, it was too late to beg him at this time.
Of course, this does not prevent Ye Chang and Huangfu from being vain.
"Doctor Huangfu praised it falsely, some things, how can the soldiers kill the enemy in blood on the front line?" Ye Chang said humbly.
"In time, Ye joins the army, don't be too humble, a talent like you should be reused by the imperial court, fortunately, you are young, stay at my age, and it is not impossible for you to have a town festival"
He encouraged him like this, Ye Chang just smiled. Huangfu Weiming signaled to him, and the two walked out of the camp, Huangfu Weiming took off his mask, gasped happily, and then frowned: "The matter of Ambassador Bian, I think something seems wrong, if he asks me for help, why is he going in the opposite direction?" ”
"What does the Imperial Doctor mean?"
"I'm afraid that he is asking for help under the pretext of help, but he is actually escaping from the battle." The emperor is only clear.
No one is stupid, and Huangfu Weiming will not be stupid, just now he asked the sergeant who came with Ye Chang to inquire, so he is very clear about some details now. He naturally didn't suspect that Ye Chang had killed Bian Lingcheng, but he had doubts about whether Bian Lingcheng really asked for help.
Even if he didn't suspect it, he had to think of ways to turn Bian Lingcheng's request for help into an escape from the battlefield - the ambassador of the prison army died on the battlefield without help and escaped and was killed by the enemy, those are completely different things, the former is the responsibility of him, the commander of the first army, and the latter he doesn't have to bear much responsibility.
Ye Chang hesitated slightly, and then said in a low voice: "What exactly is Ambassador Bian's plan, I really don't know, he has not revealed any information before
"I've prepared a note, would you like to attach your name to it?"
Hearing Ye Chang's witty answer, Huangfu Weiming was very satisfied, and immediately took out a piece of paper and handed it to Ye Chang.
In fact, as early as when he returned, Huangfu Weiming had already sent the good news of the capture of the Jishi Army to Chang'an. In that good news, Ye Chang and Bian Lingcheng could be said to have not mentioned anything, but only said how he planned to lure the enemy out. Now that Bian Lingcheng has died in battle, he must hand it in with another note, so in this note, there is a lot of content about Ye Chang.
Ye Chang took a look, although the main credit was still Huangfu Weiming's own, but he finally listed his skills in cutting wheat, luring the enemy, shooting the deputy general of Dog Rong with a crossbow, and sticking to the city, and praised it a lot, and even Li Bai, Gao Shi, Nan Jiyun and others were fortunate to be listed in the merit book.
But for Bian Lingcheng, it is said that he left his post without permission and escaped overnight, so he was intercepted and killed by the Dog Rong Ranger.
Seeing this, Ye Chang smiled dumbly.
"How?"
"The lowly only did some things that he should do, and he didn't dare to be so praised by the emperor's doctor, and the lowly official was lowly, and this signature was still exempted."
Asking him to sign is nothing more than asking him to endorse Bian Lingcheng's escape, how can Ye Chang agree to this As for the matter of performing merit for him, Ye Chang didn't pay attention to it at all, Bian Lingcheng's secret music can be said more than Huangfu Weiming
"Huh?" Huangfu Weiming was suddenly angry, he stared at Ye Chang: "Why are you exempt, this is my order......"
"Ambassador Bian's matter, a certain person really dare not make a judgment." Ye Chang also confessed: "Ye is taken care of by Ambassador Bian, but it can't be like this. ”
"The living He Zhizhang, you are still disrespectful, this dead Bian Lingcheng, but you are so respectful, could it be that this Lingcheng is your son?" Huangfu Weiming was furious, scolded secretly in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Ye joins the army and does not forget the old kindness, which is really admirable, but Bian Lingcheng is duplicitous, and he takes care of you on the surface, but in fact, he attacks you in front of me...... I won't say this, just talk about his death, you will turn into a city defender and report his death, and your responsibility is not small."
Ye Chang almost burst out laughing.
This kind of thing has been said, which proves that Huangfu Weiming is really anxious. However, although Huangfu Weiming is good at calculation, he knows that there are fewer people in the Dao after all, and he doesn't know that Ling Cheng has a secret letter on the side of the Dao that has been sent to Chang'an. Ye Chang left all the people who knew the secret performance of the Dao in Huacheng City, and did not bring any of them, in order to prevent leakage of news.
The emperor only knew that the final result of this letter could only be self-inflicted humiliation.
"Doctor Huangfu, I know that the guilt is inevitable, but I just signed this fold, which is really disturbing in conscience." Ye Chang said very sincerely: "This matter is according to the Huangfu doctor, and he will never take the initiative to mention it to others." ”
Huangfu Weiming looked at him suspiciously, and after a while, he said coldly: "Since this is the case, then it depends on you." ”
