Chapter 605: Return to the Army

To tell the truth, the family of these years and years actually has a very subtle attitude towards doctors.

On the one hand, because medical technology is not developed in these years, a slight headache and brain fever may also die, so the children of the family, if they have the conditions, will study some medical books on their own.

For example, Liu Yin, such as Zhuge Liang, actually knows some medical science.

But, on the other hand, the children of these big families have a contemptuous attitude towards the doctors who practice medicine.

Especially Xiang Zhang Ji, who is obviously a child of a family, and does not do the official position of a good Changsha Taishou, but deals with mud-legged people every day, and gives this group of mud-legged people free medical treatment, which is simply an outlier for the children of the family.

Therefore, although Zhang Ji is the son of the Nanyang Zhang family, and even in terms of seniority, he is still the uncle of the head of the Nanyang Zhang family, but the Nanyang Zhang family still doesn't treat Zhang Ji very well.

But times are different.

I don't know what kind of bug God had, let a crossing earth dog get in, and by the way, let this crossing earth dog get on the line with Zhang Ji, plus this crossing earth dog had nothing to do in Jingzhou to grasp a handful of ideological construction, built a Yuelu Academy, and specially invited Zhang Ji to Yuelu Academy to engage in medical research, but the nature of this matter is different.

Zhang Xi not only picked up this Liu Bei, printed Zhang Ji's work "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases" with engraving, distributed it to all counties, and opened it to doctors all over the world for free, but also included the book in the library of Yuelu Academy.

As the reputation of Yuelu Academy has become higher and higher over the years, the level and grade of books that can be collected in the library of Yuelu Academy have also become higher and higher. Zhang Ji's "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases" has been raised to the level of "Sacred Book of Doctors" by the world.

Zhang Ji himself is from the Zhang family in Nanyang, a standard family child, and he is not a high-grade figure at all with the folk traveling doctors.

Now he has written the "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases" at the level of the "Sacred Book of Doctors", although it is not a Confucian classic, but it is also an alternative book and biography-level character, which has led to Zhang Ji's own status, not only among the people, but even among the family, is very high.

In addition, two years ago, Zhang Ji passed away in the Yuelu Academy in Jingzhou, and at that time, even Sima Hui, a famous man in the world who has lived until now, wrote a memorial to Zhang Ji, which further raised Zhang Ji's status.

Therefore, when Liu Yin heard that Wei Shen was Zhang Ji's disciple, he did not treat Wei Shen as a doctor at all, but subconsciously treated him as a child of a family of the same level.

Of course, this is also inseparable from Wei Shen's own background, Wei Shen was born in the Wei family in Hedong.

It is the family of Wei Zhongdao, the lucky person who married Cai Zhaoji, and it is also a big family in the Hedong region.

Wei Shen himself is indeed a child of a family.

The reason why Wei Shen was dug up by Zhang Xi was that Zhang Ji owed Zhang Xi a favor, and if Zhang Xi hadn't reminded him, Zhang Ji's research on water toxicity and epidemic miasma really didn't find a way to prevent and cure it so smoothly.

On the other hand, Wei Shen is actually good at pediatrics and gynecology, and Zhang Xi dug this guy in order to find a guarantee for his wife and children.

But now, because Zhang Xi was about to go to the battlefield, Sun Shangxiang was not at ease, so he asked Wei Shen to come to Zhang Xi's army and serve as a military doctor with the army, just in case.

As a result, Zhang Xi was useless, but let Feng Xi catch up.

"This person also has a big life, seven wounds in the body, five wounds are in the limbs and other non-critical places, only two wounds are quite heavy, one in the chest, one in the back, but fortunately did not hurt the internal organs. Otherwise I can't do anything about it! This is the conclusion that Wei Shen gave after the initial treatment of Feng Xi.

Feng Xi's luck made Wei Shen sigh too.

There were seven major injuries all over the body, only a knife in the chest and a knife in the back were very deep, and the bones were already visible, but fortunately they were blocked by the ribs and did not hurt the internal organs.

If you really hurt your internal organs, then don't talk about Wei Shen, you just let Zhang Ji and Hua Tuo come back to life, and they have no good way to do it under the constraints of the conditions of this era.

And now the reason why Feng Xi is unconscious is that he simply loses too much blood, and Wei Shen has no good way, he can only stop the bleeding and heal the wound at most, and the rest can only rely on Feng Xi to get through.

Get through, then Feng Xi basically has no problem, and he is still a good man after his injury.

If you can't stand it, then Wei Shen can't do anything, after all, Wei Shen is not good at treating trauma.

Besides, even if Zhang Xi knew that it could be saved by blood transfusion, there were no conditions for determining blood type or reliable blood transfusion equipment in this era, so he couldn't do it if he knew how to do it.

Therefore, Zhang Xi could only leave Feng Xi and Wei Shen in Dachangji together, ask Liu Yin to take care of them, and lead the troops to return to Wugong County first.

After another day and a half of marching, Zhang Xi returned to the camp outside Wugong County.

At this time, Gao Xiang had already led his troops to storm Wugong County for three days.

Gao Xiang's strong attack was an offensive method that relied on a simple hook ladder to urge the soldiers to climb the city wall.

This siege method is the least efficient, but at the same time, it is also the most oppressive way of attacking the enemy.

After all, the number of defenders in Wugong County is small, and it is inappropriate to take into account the defense of several city walls.

But in the same way, the casualties of such an offensive method on the attacking side are also very large.

In just three days of attack, the siege troops commanded by Gao Xiang had already suffered more than 800 casualties.

It's Gao Xiang, and they are all distressed.

It's not that you don't want to attack, but you can't just attack. Give him some time to build siege equipment, it will be much more efficient than this kind of attack, and the casualty rate of the soldiers will be much lower.

But. The military order is like this, and Gao Xiang doesn't have a good way.

If you can't put enough pressure on Wugong County, there will be no chance of forcing Wugong County to surrender, even if the casualties are very large, Gao Xiang still has to grit his teeth and continue to attack.

And Wang Chang at this time, it was really a little unbearable.

Zhang He took away most of the soldiers, and how many of the soldiers who stayed in Wugong County didn't know what the situation they were facing now? !

There are more than 7,000 soldiers on the other side, and there are only more than 1,300 people on his side, and they have to guard the four city walls.

Zhang He led his troops out of the city, saying that he was going to attack Wuzhangyuan, but who knows what he was doing, don't turn around, and run back to Youfufeng.

That is, not long after the time has passed, the pressure of the Shu army's attack has not yet reached a critical point, and this careful thinking is hidden in everyone's hearts, and it has not yet broken out.

But this also led to low morale in the army, each with its own thoughts.

But if it continues like this, Wang Chang himself doesn't know how long he will be able to guard Wugong County.

Although, when discussing the division of troops at the beginning, Zhang He once said that once he led his troops to attack Wuzhangyuan, Wang Chang only needed to delay as much time as possible and not let the Shu army find out that he was leaving, how long this martial arts county would be defended, Zhang He did not say clearly.

In other words, in fact, both sides have a tacit understanding, if at a critical moment, Wugong County can't hold it, then Wang Chang can also choose to give up Wugong County and go directly back to Youfufeng.

Compared with the right wind, the gains and losses of a martial arts county are not important.

But Wang Chang didn't want to retreat so easily.

Now it is only four days before Zhang He's departure, and if he can't even hold on to a city for four days, then he won't think about making contributions on the battlefield in the future.

Again, in four days, if Zhang He's march goes well, then he doesn't have to worry, but if the march doesn't go well and he wants to retreat, but he retreats first, it's not that Zhang He doesn't even have a way out.

Therefore, Wang Chang's idea is to stick to Wugong County for at least ten days. Ten days later, if he really couldn't hold it, then Wang Chang directly led his troops back to Youfufeng, and re-established the defense line on Youfufeng to prevent the Shu army from taking advantage of the weakness to attack Youfufeng.

But. On the afternoon of the fifth day, Wang Chang found that in the Shu army camp outside the city, not only the number of soldiers had increased, but the banner of the main general had also changed from "high" to "zhang".

Zhang Xi, who had originally divided his troops to intercept General Zhang He, had already returned.

This made Wang Chang's heart sink and he had a very bad premonition.

In fact, if you think about it with a little brain, you can know that if General Zhang He's march goes smoothly, Zhang Xi at this time should be desperately following and chasing General Zhang He, even if he chases all the way to Wuzhangyuan.

But Zhang Xi led the troops back to Wugong County at this time, and General Zhang He's side. Wang Chang's heart was suddenly anxious.

If General Zhang He is defeated, and even the elite army of 5,000 people is buried in the mountain road, what should he do?!

Keep it up?!

When the Shu army besieged it with all its might, he didn't even have a place to run.

Just give up?!

In case General Zhang is not completely wiped out, he comes back to see that his retreat is gone. That's the big problem.

Wang Chang thought about it and felt that it was not yet at the point of exhaustion. Continue to hold on for the last two days, if General Zhang He returns, then everything will be fine, if General Zhang He does not come back in two days. Then there's really no going back.

Fortunately, at noon on the sixth day, Wang Chang was at the north gate and saw Zhang He's army retreating from the mountain road to Wugong County in embarrassment.

But at the same time, this army also had not very good news that brought Wang Chang.

General Zhang He had an attack of arrow sores and is now unconscious.
