By the time Cui Shilun and Lu Xian demolished the east wall to make up for the west wall, they finally scraped together 10,000 loads of grain and grass, and Xichangbo had already suffered two defeats.

When Xichangbo's army was about to arrive, Han Shihu successfully retreated and returned to Shaanxi with his 20,000 horses.

The order given to him by Zhanhuai was to stay at the door of the house, although the main army was out of Shaanxi, but Shaanxi could not be lost, Han Shihu's army remained in Shaanxi, one was to strictly prevent the Tartars from attacking the border from Yulin and Ganzhou, and the other was to protect the families in Xi'an City.

Staying in Xi'an City, there are not only Xie Honglin, Mrs. Zhong and Ah Xiang, but also the families of other generals, here is the rear, is their foundation, only Xi'an City is solid, stable as Mount Tai, the generals can have no worries.

That day, when Zhanhuai and Huo Roufeng talked about the past when Mrs. Gao rescued Princess Jiurong, Zhanhuai asked about the details, but unfortunately Huo Roufeng was too young at the time to remember it at all, and later Zhanhuai wrote to Uncle Gui, Uncle Gui took care of the relics of the old Duke of Min and Mrs. Gao for most of his life, and cherished their great achievements that year, but no one liked to hear these things, and finally Zhanhuai asked, Uncle Gui did everything in detail, and wrote a few pieces of paper with enthusiasm, and told the story of the sneak attack on Xi'an City that year. In fact, he also heard these things from the older generation, but he still let Zhanhuai and Huo Roufeng understand the real situation back then.

No one can tell whether history will repeat itself, so neither Zhanhuai nor Huo Roufeng will have the slightest slack in this matter.

There are mothers and daughters in the city of Xi'an, and everyone has an accident, and it is like cutting flesh and bones for them.

Although Zhan Yu returned to Xi'an and had a small garrison in Suiyunling, Zhan Huai still left Han Shihu.

Han Shihu is experienced, especially good at fighting in the northwest, and only with him and Zhanyu, Zhanhuai and Huo Roufeng can he leave with confidence.

Xichangbo was defeated and retreated, and by the time the imperial court finally delivered the first batch of grain and grass, several generals under Xichangbo had all folded in Jiahai's hands.

Facing the grain officer sent by the Ministry of War, Xi Changbo glared angrily: "There are only grain and grass, medicinal materials, medicinal materials, Lao Tzu's soldiers are injured, sick and sick, there are no medical workers, and there are no medicinal materials if you want medicinal materials, why don't you let the people from the Tai Hospital bring medical workers over?" ”

The grain officer was scolded so stunned that it took a long time before he said, "You didn't mention the matter of medical workers and medicinal materials to Elder Cui Ge, did you?" ”

Xichangbo hated to split the grain officer, no, this is not the grain officer's business, this is Cui Shilun's waste problem.

This kind of big battle is a tough battle, with countless casualties, only relying on the medical officers who accompany the army where is enough, not to mention how many medicinal materials the army can bring, use a little less, so every time there is a war, a large number of medical workers will be led by the people of the Tai Hospital, these medical workers have students from the Tai Hospital, and some are recruited from the people, and there are medical workers and medicinal materials, so that the wounded soldiers can recover from their injuries as soon as possible and devote themselves to new battles. The dead are dead, and if the wounded cannot be saved, then there are not enough soldiers.

This is common sense, and it has always been arranged by the military department. Who would have thought that Cui Shilun didn't even think of this.

In fact, Cui Shilun also understands, he has been in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies for many years, and he must know this kind of common sense. It's just that this time because of the problem of military spending and troops, he was anxious, the people below didn't remind him, and Xichangbo didn't take the initiative to fold it, so Cui Shilun threw this matter out of the clouds.

There are more and more wounded soldiers, and even if they are asked for people now, by the time the people from the Tai Hospital arrive, I don't know how many people have already died.

In desperation, Xichangbo sent people to recruit medical workers in Shanxi, which was a death order.

At the beginning, no one came for a few days, Xichang Bo was anxious, and sent people to various pharmacies and medical halls to arrest people, as for the medicinal materials, he bought them at first, and then he simply brought them over with the hall doctor, and put a white slip on credit first.

Everyone in Shanxi was in danger, many pharmacies closed overnight, and the shopkeeper fled the city along with the doctor.

As early as when Zhanhuai and Huo Roufeng set out on the expedition, Sishitang only retained the business of Shaanxi in the entire northwest, and even the Huo family caravan changed its route.

When Xichangbo's people went to arrest the doctor, the first thing they thought of was the Four Seasons Hall, but after they went, they learned that the Four Seasons Hall had closed as early as two months ago, and it was said that the owner felt that the business was not easy to do, and the medicinal materials could not be transported, so the business was stopped first.

At that time, the counterparts in Shanxi still felt strange, but now it seems that Sishitang is too far-sighted.

It doesn't hurt to be caught and treated by wounded soldiers, but the most unbearable thing for pharmacies and infirmaries is to pay on credit.

There is no difference between the army's credit and the open robbery, does anyone really think that the money used to buy medicinal materials can be returned?

Definitely not coming back.

The army is not a yamen, you won't even be able to find anyone when you arrive, and you still need money, so thank God you can let the doctors come back alive.

In addition to medicinal herbs and medical workers, Xichangbo also forced merchants to give money and cloth, and pulled up large tents to take in wounded soldiers.

The Tartars invaded, and the people contributed money and efforts, which was a righteous act, but if the army forced the silver out, it was a clear robbery.

What made the merchants even more angry was that they gave out the money and the people, but the army was still defeated and retreated, and the Tartar soldiers entered the city to loot, and they robbed whatever they saw, and they did not spare any property, livestock, women, and even children of a few years old. When the Tartars were gone, they came back and forced the people, who had just lost their belongings, to take out the money and place the wounded soldiers.

It's like cutting flesh on top of flesh that has already been skinned.

The people of Shanxi are struggling to make a living, and they are mourning all over the country.

At this time, Zhanhuai Huo Roufeng had already fought a few tough battles with Zhang Baochen's army, and when he heard what Xichangbo did in Shanxi, Huo Roufeng scolded, Zhanhuai just sighed and said: "Actually, I can understand Xichangbo, when I fought King Rong, I also wanted nothing, fortunately, I have a rich brother, Xichangbo doesn't." ”

Before Zhanhuai set out on the expedition that year, Huo Roufeng handed him a small seal, and with that small seal, he could withdraw silver from the four major banks.

In fact, Zhanhuai didn't use Huo Roufeng's silver back then, but people are like this, once they have money, they will be hard to do things. Although it was hard to fight King Rong, Zhanhuai had never exploited the people, which was also the main reason why he had a good reputation in the northwest for many years.

The next day, the grain and grass raised by the Wu family was sent over, the Wu family has not been idle in recent years, not only sent Wu Jiaxun to the capital, but also sent a few children to various places, to make friends with local businessmen, this time Zhanhuai raised troops, only the Wu family has raised 200,000 loads of grain and grass, of course, these grains and grass are not only the Wu family's own, there are more than ten other merchants, these businessmen are the same as the Wu family, in recent years under the care of Zhanhuai, the business has been smooth, and now it is time for them to contribute, since there are no complaints.
