Chapter VIII Military Medic

There is a saying that good and evil will be rewarded in the end, maybe it is a blessing or a curse, Zuo Houde wanted to avoid this conscription, but he didn't escape.

On 15 July, the conscription was carried out enthusiastically, and it had been more than ten days, and it had come to an end.

Of course, since he knew that this conscription had nothing to do with him, Zuo Houde did not pay much attention to this conscription.

Unexpectedly, an elder came to the family on this day.

"Uncle, why are you here, you send someone to inform you of something, why do you come in person? Rong'er served tea to her uncle, "Zuo Jizu is not at home, so Zuo Houde took on the task of entertaining the elders."

This old uncle is the last time Zuo Houde got married, and the elders who came from the clan are quite cordial to Zuo Houde's family.

"I came here this time, and I also have something to ask you."

"I don't know what? However, I don't know much about the affairs of the family, everything is my father's work. Otherwise, I'd better call my father back. Zuo Houde asked

The old uncle waved his hand, "It has nothing to do with your father, a few days ago, Cao Duwei of the Conscription Department came to the clan and asked our Zuo clan to help introduce a few military doctors. ”

"Uncle, I am the only son in the family, and I have never paid attention to this conscription." Zuo Houde frowned, but still showed his attitude.

"You kid, although this military doctor has something to do with the conscription, he is not in the army. I heard Captain Cao say that this conscription, the non-commissioned officers are enough, but the military doctors in this battalion are insufficient, and if you enter the barracks, it is not according to the set of recruits. You are considered to be an officer, and your salary and future are not better than you are now."

Zuo Houde was still frowning, and he just wanted to say something.

The old uncle said again, "I went to the southern camp in the outer city, which is only more than ten miles south of the city, and the soldiers said that they can't enter and leave the military camp at will, but you military doctors are ten days and a half months, and there are days when you go home to visit relatives." What's more, the military doctor is guarding the logistics place, and he can also put you in danger. ”

"Uncle, I still need to discuss a thing or two with my father" Zuo Houde hugged his fists and said with a straight face.

"Okay, if you want to, come and let me know." After saying that, the old uncle left on crutches.

Rong'er came out of the back room at this time, "Husband, what's the matter with my uncle?" ”

Zuo Houde told his wife about the matter and wanted to hear his wife's opinion.

"In this matter, it is still up to the husband to make his own decision, it is better to wait for my father to come back, and then we will discuss it together."

At night, the family gathers in the backyard.

Zuo Houde told his father what his uncle said in the afternoon, and he also wanted to hear his opinion.

Zuo Ji's ancestor frowned, and when he heard that there was no danger, he let go of his brows.

"Uncle has always taken care of our family, and this doesn't seem to be a bad thing, but you newlyweds, Yan'er, are going to part, but you have to make your own decisions."

It was late at night, Zuo Houde was still thinking about the feasibility of things, to be honest, Zuo Houde really wanted to try, not to mention that he had only read about this military camp in his previous life, and he had a chance in this life, but he had never seen it.

And if you don't have to worry too much about safety, there are a few men who can refuse this bloody military camp and battlefield battle.

Enthusiasm has nothing to do with age, the so-called "veterans don't die, but gradually wither." ”

However, this newlywed Yan'er really made people fall into the gentle township.

"Xiao Rong'er, I'm going to go to the barracks."

"As long as the husband thinks about it, the concubine has no opinion, but this military camp is not a good place after all, and the husband is still very careful." Xiao Rong'er leaned on Zuo Houde's chest and instructed carefully.

Zuo Houde hugged his wife in his arms, "I'm not at home, Rong'er can do some needlework with her mother, although those three aunts and six mothers-in-law usually like to talk about homely things, they are all very kind elders." ”

"The slave family knows that it's late at night, so let's rest quickly."

……

On the second day,

Zuo Houde went to the clan and told the old uncle the news.

"Although the military camp is difficult, the future is also immeasurable, Lang Jun goes, the family does not have to worry."

The old uncle said, and told Zuo Houde about some things in the army, and Zuo Houde had to pay attention to them.

Zuo Houde figured out the things in the clan, and rushed to the pharmacy, and he had to talk to the teacher about entering the barracks.

July 20th, sunrise, excellent.

Mother and Zuo Houde packed up their clothes, took some dried meat made at home, and brought the tools they usually used for medical treatment. Zuo Jizu built a sharp sword for Zuo Houde from the ironsmith shop, and only let him stay by his side and use it as a protective body.

Zuo Houde was embarrassed to tell him that this sword was lighter.

The wife didn't give anything, but there was indescribable concern in her eyes.

The Yamen of the Conscription Division,

Twenty or thirty men are all in wide robes and big sleeves with a medicine box, Zuo Houde is among them, looking extremely young, and most of the rest are men in their thirties and forties. Except for a few of these people, most of them know each other, after all, they are also acquaintances in an industry.

That's right, this group of people will be the military doctors in the barracks in the future.

There are no too old doctors in this group of military doctors, so they can't withstand the fatigue of running around in the barracks.

The group arrived, and two teams of elite soldiers in armor escorted these military doctors to the barracks.

The address of the barracks is not intended to be in the city or in the wilderness, as people think.

In ancient times, the city was built and divided into an inner city and an outer city. The inner city is called "Cheng", and the outer city is called "Kuo". The system of city outline is the main form of urban construction in ancient times.

In fact, the use of the inner city and the outer city is roughly the same in all dynasties and generations, and the outer city is mainly used to build fortifications and thicken the city walls to protect the entire city. Like the so-called moat in ancient times, it was outside the outer city walls.

Of course, you can't see the moat in Youzhou City, it's already frozen.

Most of the armies are also stationed in the outer city, like the ancient army occupied the city or dedicated the city, which is called the outer city. Of course, the outer city is gone, and the inner city naturally can't be defended.

And now, the Nanda camp that Zuo Houde is going to is a military camp in the outer city.

Because Zuo Houde didn't pay much attention to conscription, he saw a very kind-faced brother next to him. This is Dr. Zhang of Almond Hall, called Zhang Shiqian. Zuo Houde once drank tea with him.

"Brother Zhang, isn't this conscription 200,000? Where are we going to have twenty or thirty doctors? ”

"It turned out to be Brother Zuo, although it was a conscription of 200,000 soldiers under the rule of the prince of Yanyun 16 states, Youzhou may be less than 50,000 people, these 50,000 people are divided into four camps, and each camp has more than 10,000 people, plus there are military doctors in the barracks themselves, we are just starting out."

Soon arrived at the Nanda camp, Zuo Houde looked at it, the entire military camp was planned in an orderly manner, and the layout was well organized. The barracks and verandahs are also scattered. The training venues for the soldiers are also neatly demarcated, and there are camps for different parts of the first place.

Here we also want to talk about the difference between the barracks, which are divided into marching barracks and garrison barracks, the former is a temporary camp built when marching and fighting. The barracks are generally stationed after the scouts in front or the Tangbao cavalry determine the safety.

There are also strict requirements for the geographical location of the barracks. Generally speaking, it depends on the distance between the two armies, whether it is convenient to transport food, and whether it is convenient for the rear team to support.

Generally speaking, the soldiers of the barracks are only a part of the soldiers, and a small number of soldiers will be stationed in the back, waiting for the cavalry to inform them if they need support.

The second is to set up tents and walls. After the camp decided to be stationed, it was time to set up tents and build walls and precautions, which were generally carried out in no order and at the same time. Pitching a tent is not like we thought, collecting wood on the spot.

On the march, there will be a team dedicated to transporting rope and wood for pitching tents. About five people transported the materials needed for a tent, and when they arrived at the barracks, several people also set up their own tents, because the raw materials did not need to be found on the spot, and the division of labor was clear, it was very fast to set up a tent.

And the latter is a camp like Nanda Camp where the barracks building has been repaired and only needs to be garrisoned. It is generally built in the outer city, and in addition to training soldiers, the soldiers who defend the city on the city wall also live in such garrison barracks.

Such a barracks are actually not as open as the barracks on the march and fighting. The garrison barracks each have their own barracks, and the conditions are still good.

Of course, in fact, even in a state of battle, on the march. Most of the troops still prefer to live in fixed barracks, or at least in civilian housing. That is, you need a "house number". The scouts of the front army were one step ahead of the other, and the houses needed for the camp of the army were reserved at the market in front. This is also the biggest crime of the ancient army to disturb the people.
