General Robert Lee had been turning back and forth in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror for nearly half an hour.

The quartermaster couldn't help but remind: "General, it's not too early, it's time to visit His Excellency the Brigadier General." ”

"Oh!"

Robert Lee woke up from a dream and realized that he seemed to have a gaffe.

"This is probably the inevitable process of the elderly who need time to digest and accept new things when they see them......

Robert Lee thought so, and then said to the quartermaster: "Tell the supplier that this new British style military uniform can meet the requirements of our army, and it is necessary to prepare 70,000 sets to be shipped before the weather turns cold in October." ”

"British style?"

The quartermaster was stunned.

Although he took a tip from the middleman Morris Textiles, the quartermaster couldn't describe this dark green jumpsuit + baby pink vest shirt as British style, right?

What does this have to do with the UK?

Robert Lee took the opportunity to look in the mirror again, and said with a smile: "The old man is not blind, and this red and bright color scheme is not the imitation of the British lobster soldiers?" ”

"Don't worry about other people's gossip, the British are, after all, our most important allies and the most militarily powerful country in the world. We refer to their military uniforms, which is also a continuation of our Anglo-Saxon tradition, and red is the embodiment of the fiery will of our southerners, and do not forget that Thomas (i.e. Stonewall Jackson) instructed us to plant the red flag all over the United States! ”

It can be seen that Robert Lee is in a good mood now, and he has babbled and analyzed the meaning of this new military uniform, as if to find an adequate explanation for his choice.

The short-staffed quartermaster certainly welcomed the boss's idea, but ......

The quartermaster pulled out a pamphlet from his pocket, a picture book of his three-year-old son's graffiti.

He pointed to one of the green toads and cautiously asked, "General, do you see this is ......?"

"Colorful poison dart frogs? I can't see that your son has such insight at such a young age, and I also heard from an explorer friend that there is such a red frog in the jungle of South America, and the local aborigines use their toxins to make blow arrows......"

The quartermaster was no longer listening.

He's a little blindsided.

Sure enough, General Lee was hopelessly severely colorblind.

No wonder his taste is always hard to describe.

But even if he knew, the quartermaster wasn't going to say a word more.

Let this secret rot in your heart......

……

On the way to the makeshift ward, Robert Lee kept wiping his sweat with a handkerchief.

After all, it's August, and in hellish weather in Richmond, an old man is wearing a plush and thick jumpsuit and a thick down vest, and the absence of heat stroke is enough to show that Robert Lee is a soldier with excellent physical fitness.

Still, he insisted on showing off his old friend in this beautiful new outfit.

"Maybe that Thomas guy will get better as soon as he is happy?"

Of course, Robert Lee actually knew that this was probably impossible.

His old friend, who fought bravely, did not have a corresponding strong physique, and even if he had not been seriously injured this time, his original health would not be very good.

And this time, even the British Navy medic came to consult, and a serious lung infection had already killed the general.

However, if it is the lungs, if it is somewhere else, even the brain, the doctors say that it can be surgically removed.

But the lung is a very special organ, as long as it is gently pricked, it will shrink into a mass of tissue the size of a ping-pong ball, and there is no way to remove it......

Thinking of the helplessness of the famous doctors after the consultation, Robert Lee's good mood just now was swept away.

"By the way, didn't there be a guy who claimed to be a doctor and said he wanted to see me?" Robert Lee asked casually.

The quartermaster spread his hands and said: "Probably kicked out by Dr. Mondo, you know, General, since we issued a bounty order, many indiscriminate guys pretend to be doctors and want to try their luck, if it weren't for Dr. Mondo's check, Your Excellency the Brigadier General would have been killed by them a long time ago." ”

Robert Lee nodded and said, "That's right, Dr. Mondo is recognized as the best doctor in all of Virginia, and we should trust him." ”

As they spoke, a tent with a cross appeared in front of them.

Growing emaciated, Stonewall Jefferson, the southern god of war, was dying inside.

Robert Lee stretched out his hand to open the curtain and enter, when suddenly a burly gray-robed man rushed in.

"General, general, there is a miracle doctor, there really is a miracle doctor!"

Dr. Mondo made a sudden stop and stopped in front of the tent.

You could see that he was excited, as if he had seen some great miracle.

"Divine doctor, what divine doctor?"

Robert Lee was stunned, "Shouldn't it be the guy who made a lot of noise just now?" ”

Doctor Mondo was obviously not a jealous person, he quickly nodded: "General, it is that doctor, he graduated from the Valhalla Medical College in New York, and was originally a military doctor of the 13th Corps in New Jersey, because of his belief in justice and freedom, he came here and was willing to fight side by side with us. ”

"Wait......"

Robert Lee wondered, "Even so, why do you think so highly of Dr. Mondo?" When it comes to resume, you're going to be much better than him, aren't you? ”

Dr. Mondo nodded proudly, but after a momentary change, he said: "If you just talk about your resume in North America, I do have to be a little bit stronger than him, but if you add overseas resume, then he is a little bit better than me, he once served the Chinese royal family and obtained the secret recipe of the Chinese emperor." ”

"The most important thing is that he can actually do it, use drugs and then face me...... Hold up a ...... at me"

"Shhhh

Robert Lee and the quartermaster gasped.

There is no way that anyone who can stand up to Dr. Mondo's face in this world simply does not exist.

Then it can only be said that that kind of pill is really terrifying.

This is indeed a strong evidence of medical skills.

"Bring that clever doctor in!" Robert Lee couldn't wait.

In Robert Lee's view, he has played for the Chinese royal family......

This is indeed a mysterious resume.

Although since the Second Opium War, the Anglo-French alliance has opened up in North China at will, the last reverence of Westerners for the Central Dynasty has disappeared.

However, China is, after all, a country with a long civilization and a vast territory.

There, it is also quite possible that there are some secret medicines that are not well known.

After all, although the United States is a country dressed in the cloak of modern civilization, its anti-intellectual and superstitious underlying thinking has never stopped.

In the 19th and 20th centuries, a variety of secret recipes emerged one after another, without the need for an ingredient list, accounting for 70% of the pharmaceutical market, and also gave birth to a large number of millionaires.

And these so-called secret recipes, opium mixed with water are already considered conscientious products, and all kinds of strange raw materials are available.

The highest peak is naturally a large number of radium health products that have emerged after the discovery of radiation.

That's really high, it's too old to drink it!

It is precisely because the American people themselves believe in those secret medicines full of mysticism, so when they heard about such a powerful Chinese court medicine, Robert Lee naturally wanted to see it.
