Chapter 051: Back Water (1)

The outcasts are besieging the city.

After three days of peaceful development, in the early morning of the fourth day, the sun had just risen, and the vagrants carried the cloud ladder that had just been made and attacked the county seat.

The offensive of the displaced people was very methodical, with four or five thousand men in the west and north of the city as a feint, and more than 10,000 people gathered in the east of the city.

Wu Pei told everyone that the leader of these exiles was not a mediocre person, because even if he knew that the west and north sides of the city were feints, the city must also send people to defend it, and the defenders in the city were already small, so once they were dispersed, the guard force in the east of the city would be greatly weakened.

There was no moat in Hecang County, and there were less than thirty crossbowmen in the county, all of whom were gathered in the east of the city by Wu Pei, but the scattered arrows did not cause effective damage to the wanderers, who soon put the ladder on the city wall.

The battle entered the white-hot from the beginning, hand-to-hand combat, cold metal and hot flesh and blood, shouts of killing resounded throughout the county, at this time all the people hiding at home looked in the direction of the east of the city with a panicked face, for fear that a group of homeless people would break in from the door!

There are no trebuchets and oil cans, no rain of arrows in the sky, and no siege trees that specifically hit the city gates, everything in the movie is not here, but it is this pale flesh and blood that is truly suffocating!

The first wave of the outcasts' offensive lasted for nearly half an hour, and for half an hour, Zhang Shuo only heard the shouts of killing above his head, and when the shouting and killing gradually dissipated, a subordinate who was watching the battle at the head of the city ran over and told Zhang Shuo that he could go to the city.

The field medical team has just been established for two days, and in the past two days, Zhang Shuo has not taught these team members any advanced medical skills, but only taught the simplest methods of hemostasis and bandaging.

More than 80 team members ran to the head of the city, according to Zhang Shuo's teaching, they worked in pairs, and when they met the wounded soldiers who could continue to fight, they carried out simple bandages to stop the bleeding, and when they encountered wounded soldiers who could not continue to fight, they carried down the city wall on stretchers.

Because the cloth is so precious, Zhang Shuo used fishing nets when making stretchers, and there were many fishermen in the city, and forty stretchers could be easily made.

Zhang Shuo also climbed to the top of the city, originally he was supposed to deal with those seriously injured under the city, but it was the first time for these newly recruited team members to do this kind of thing, and he was worried that something would happen, so he followed.

At the head of the city, several soldiers guarding the city were mending their knives, Zhang Shuo saw that not far away, a very thin homeless man fell to the ground, his whole body convulsed, and a large pool of blood flowed out of the ground.

After stabbing the homeless man to death, the soldier grabbed the body's body without changing his face and threw it out of the city wall.

Zhang Shuo estimated that even if the soldier didn't stab him, the homeless man would not survive if he fell from the three-story city wall.

The same thing happened everywhere in the city, and these young people, who were ordinary people a few days ago, quickly adapted to the battlefield after a big battle, and became a soldier who killed people without blinking.

Not only these young men, but even the team members recruited by Zhang Shuo took everything that happened in the city for granted.

This is an era when feudal etiquette has not yet been popularized, there is no Confucius, there is no Confucianism, morality is a problem that only the superior will consider, in the eyes of the common people, only to live, and live better!

Therefore, the only one who is not suitable for the battlefield is Zhang Shuo alone!

Zhang Shuoqiang endured the discomfort in his heart, and walked down the city wall in three or two steps, he was not afraid of the bloody scene, Chinese medicine also has to learn anatomy, and he has seen a lot of bloody scenes.

The reason why Zhang Shuo didn't want to look at it anymore was because he clearly felt the film between civilization and barbarism, which broke as soon as he poked, even if he was a "civilized person" in the 21st century.

Are the men who mend their swords right? Morally, they are cruel, but for a war, they do it right.

At least Zhang Shuo thinks so, so he doesn't want to continue to think, hypocrisy is hypocrisy, at least there is a word "good", isn't it?

Not far from the city wall, Zhang Shuo directly set up an open-air "field hospital" on the wide street, and at this time there were four rows of 80 wooden collapses on the street.

In this era, there were no wooden beds, and most of the people slept on stone beds covered with straw mats, and the rich and noble families slept on wooden collapses, which Zhang Shuo specially borrowed from the rich and noble families in the city.

When Zhang Shuo came down from the city, there were already more than ten wounded soldiers lying on the wooden collapse, Zhang Shuo did not delay, and immediately took out the stitched needles and threads and disinfectant supplies from the suitcase on the side, and began to debride and suture the wound.

Just when Zhang Shuo was stitching up these wounded soldiers, the team members sent more than 20 seriously injured soldiers one after another, that is to say, the first wave of the exiles caused nearly 40 serious injuries in the first wave of siege!

Zhang Shuo estimated that with the addition of those killed in the battle at the head of the city, the 2,000 soldiers defending the city lost 50 to 80 people in the first battle.

This number is not much, but according to the members of the team who watched the battle not long ago, the displaced people did not rush up during the siege, and more than half stayed in the camp, so that the displaced people were obviously fighting wheel warfare, wave after wave, and the later they came, the more tired the soldiers defending the city became, and the casualties would increase accordingly.

Sure enough, Zhang Shuo had just finished the suturing operation of the third wounded soldier, and the shouts of killing sounded again in the city, and he glanced at the city head with a worried face, but soon buried his head in the operation again.

Zhang Shuo knew that it was useless for him to be in a hurry, although after more than a month of spiritual qi training, his strength had increased a lot, but he was really on the battlefield, and his role was not much different from that of ordinary soldiers, so it was better to treat the wounded soldiers here.

In this way, after a while, the shouting and killing continued until dusk, and the wounded soldiers here also surged to more than 200 people, and the streets could not be put down, so Zhang Shuo sent someone to send the wounded soldiers who had been stitched up to the surrounding people's homes and asked the people to take care of them.

At dusk, under the afterglow of the setting sun, the homeless people finally dispersed, and seeing the smoke rising from the camp of the homeless people, Wu Pei finally went down the city wall with the county lieutenant.

After Wu Pei came down from the city, the first place he arrived was Zhang Shuo's side, and after seeing that these seriously injured soldiers were properly treated, he nodded with satisfaction.

"It's hard work. Wu Pei was covered in blood at this time, and his tone was also deeply tired.

"That's what grass people should do. Zhang Shuo's face was worried, and he sighed and said, "Although the grass people tried their best to save them, there were still a few soldiers who did not come back. ”

"Doctor Zhang doesn't have to blame himself, life and death on the battlefield are unpredictable, and he can save so much, the deity is already very pleased. Wu Pei smiled.

"Lord County...... Zhang Shuo pondered for a while, and asked with some hesitation, "Now that the soldiers defending the city have suffered heavy casualties, this city ......?"

"Haha! Doctor Zhang doesn't have to worry, the homeless people are not a well-trained army, they didn't capture the county seat today, they have no morale, and tomorrow's offensive will not be so fierce. Hearing this, Wu Pei replied with a smile.

Is that so? Zhang Shuo nodded when he heard the answer of the county commander Wu Pei, but he didn't know why, there was always a lingering panic in his heart.
