Chapter 120: Staying at Yanmen Pass
On the 27th, Xu Da went out of Yanmen from the middle road, Li Wenzhong went out of Yingchang from the east road, and Feng Sheng went out of Jinlan from the west road to take Gansu.
On February 29, Xu Dashi arrived in Shanxi and sent the pioneer Lan Yu out of Yanmen first.
Lan Yu led his division to Yema River, and after encountering a small group of Northern Yuan cavalry, he pursued the troops until the chaotic mountain, and the Northern Yuan army counter-engaged and was defeated by Lan Yu.
Zheng Xiong's fleet went north through the canal, and although the straightening of the Mengyuan bend greatly shortened the waterway distance from Yingtianfu to Beiping Fu (Dadu), the north wind was still blowing, and the speed of transportation was not fast.
On March 15, the blue jade soldiers and horses reached the Tula River and met Wang Baobao's soldiers and horses (Kuangkhor Timur), and after a fierce battle, Wang Baobao was defeated and fled.
At this time, the team of doctors led by Zheng Xiong had just arrived in Yanmen, and there were still a lot of logistics materials here.
The waterway is not fast, after walking the waterway, reaching the Taihang Mountains, there are troops sending each other, all the way to Yanmen Pass.
In Yanmen Pass, Zheng Xiong rubbed his sore whole body, and the multi-day march was really a huge burden on his current body.
The promotion stationed at Yanmen Pass has jurisdiction over two thousand households, with more than 2,000 troops stationed, plus people, and there are more than 10,000 people in Yanmen Pass at this time.
At this time, Zhang Huaiyuan, the Daizhou garrison and Yanmen Pass, was sitting in Yanmen Pass, arranging a series of matters of grain and grass materials.
Hearing that Zheng Xiong's team of physicians had arrived, he hurriedly got up and came to the gate of the city wall in the pass to greet him.
Zhang Huaiyuan is a fourth-grade official, and his official position is a little higher, but although Zheng Xiong is a fifth-grade, Zheng Xiong's achievements are not only in medical skills, but also in a definite marquis position, Zhang Huaiyuan does not dare to slack off.
Not to mention Xu Da's special explanation before leaving, so that Zhang Huaiyuan did not dare to underestimate it.
Zheng Xiong, who was wearing an official uniform, coupled with Zheng Xiong's immature face, plus a team of more than 200 doctors behind him, although this fire-like guy behind his back was a bit nondescript. But when he met, Zhang Huaiyuan suddenly had a number in his heart, and said to Zheng Xiong.
"Dare to ask this is Zheng Tiling of Huimin Pharmacy, this official is the state garrison and Yanmen Pass to promote Zhang Huaiyuan, and I am here to see what kind of person Huimin Pharmacy is."
"The promotion of the lord is polite, the official Huimin Pharmacy Zheng Xiong, please meet the promotion of the adult."
Zheng Xiong saw that the promotion of Yanmen Pass came here to greet him in person, and the official was a senior level, and the number of courtesies that should be there was indispensable, so he hurriedly saluted.
"You don't need so much courtesy to withdraw it, you have achieved so much at such a young age, and when you see it today, you know that it is better to be famous than to meet, and it is better to meet than to be famous, and you are really a young hero."
In the face of Zhang Huaiyuan's praise, Zheng Xiong didn't say much, he didn't know anything, and it was better to be cautious in his words and deeds.
"Don't dare to be it, you can't be praised so much by the promotion of the adult, it's just a little more lucky, and the promotion of the adult doesn't have to be like this."
"Hey, dang, we are all vaccinated against cowpox all over the world, our smallpox is located at the border, and we have been vaccinated early, and we have not seen any trace of smallpox for a long time.
"This is what the lower officials should do, and now that they have arrived at Yanmen Pass, I don't know how the lower officials should act, and please inform the transfer of the lord."
Zhang Huaiyuan was too enthusiastic, Zheng Xiong hurriedly changed the topic and asked what to do after the doctor arrived at Yanmen Pass.
Xu Da's army ran too fast, thinking that so much time had passed now, Lan Yu and Xu Da estimated that they would have gone all the way north and reached Mongolia soon, after all, these two legs couldn't outrun the army on horseback no matter how much they ran, so they simply asked.
"Don't worry about withdrawal, the prince has instructions before leaving, the doctor of the pharmacy will stay in Yanmen Pass, and if there is an injury or illness, he will be sent back to Yanmen Pass, and the doctor of the pharmacy will be treated, just wait here."
"The official has prepared a meal, and he will wash the dust for the collar, please."
Zhang Huaiyuan's invitation, Zheng Xiong couldn't refuse, looked at the eager eyes of his doctors, reluctantly accepted, didn't say a word of refusal, and went to the banquet with a stomach that hadn't eaten well for a long time.
"Raise your Excellency first, please."
After some tugging, the two walked together, and the doctor behind them had his own person to receive them.
The banquet has no characteristics, the standard of four dishes and one soup, if you really want to say what is the specialty, that is, the game here, the amount is large and full, but it makes Zheng Xiong quite enjoyable, and the future generations have no chance to eat it at all, but at this time there is a mouthful.
After eating and drinking, Zheng Xiong left and went to rest, the room that had already been cleaned up made Zheng Xiong feel at home, and his heart was warm and caring.
The next day, Zheng Xiong, who had rested, came to the government office of Yanmen Pass and met Zhang Huaiyuan.
"Promote your lordship, the lower official has already rested here, what are your orders, please ask for instructions on your promotion."
"There are no orders, we don't have a place to ask the pharmacy for help, if you have any ideas, just do it yourself, and the official will fully cooperate here."
Zhang Huaiyuan is very bold, Zheng Xiong is famous, let the pharmacy toss, and he is also very busy.
"I don't know what the situation is at Yanmen Pass, whether the Xiaguan's pharmacy should do something."
"There are 19 mouths in the area of Yanmen Pass, more than 400 miles from east to west, including more than 100 inclined paths, all of which can pass through people and horses. There are 2,562 officers and soldiers guarding this pass today, 3,935 people strong, 100 strong soldiers and 50 small ones, and there are only 20 or 10 people in the middle of the road. ”
"Guogong has already drunk Ma Hanhai, we have no war here, so we don't bother to take care of it, but there are some wounded who have been withdrawn from the front and need to be brought for treatment."
"I'm tired of raising my lord, take the lower officials to take a look."
"Come on, take Zheng Tiling from the pharmacy to take a look, the official has something to do, so I'll take it to check myself."
"It's the lower officials who are bothering, and the lower officials are asking for help, and the lower officials are leaving."
At this time, the little official on the side came over and gestured.
"Withdrawal, please here."
followed the little official to the camp in the pass, in the simple tent, except for a few sergeants on duty, there were no other personnel.
From time to time, there were a few wails from inside the camp.
When the two came closer, the sergeant on duty looked at the official uniform, confirmed that it was a person who could not afford to offend, and said after saluting.
"Where the barracks are, I don't know what the two of you are here for."
"This official Zheng Xiong, Huimin Pharmacy has come here to see the wounded, so that I can know how to treat them."
When the sergeant heard Zheng Xiong's name, he was in awe, alcohol is a common medicine in the army, and Zheng Xiong's name is still very good in the army.
"It turns out that Lord Ti is here, but please command."
"You can take me in and have a look, and tell me about the wounded by the way."
"Yes, please come with me, there are about 200 wounded in the camp, after being wounded on the front line, they were simply cleaned with alcohol, and then wrapped in strips of cloth."
"The current situation is okay, much better than the previous situation of life and death. Some of them are getting better and better, some are in a bit of a bad state, and now that there is a pharmacy to take action, I think they have a better chance of survival. ”
