Chapter 467: Performing the Metal Creation Technique(1/3)

The siege battle barely came to an end until the afternoon. The city was cleared and the prisoners who escaped were captured and sent back to the camp for custody.

He didn't eat at noon. Li Mengxi ran around with Liu Bei for a long time and was hungry.

He took out several pieces of cake wrapped in cloth from his arms, took one for himself, and gave one to Liu Bei. Liu Bei took it with a smile.

The rest was divided among the people, and everyone was flattered.

He picked up the pancake and took a bite. It was sweet and delicious. Liu Bei couldn't help but look at Li Mengxi.

"It's candy. I made it for Xiao Bian." Li Mengxi explained.

The pancake is not big, round and a little small.

Although I am not full, I can ward off hunger a little bit.

The city was now quiet and deserted.

Soon after, Guan Yu, who was responsible for setting up a big sack and catching the defeated Yellow Turban troops at the south gate, came on horseback.

"Brother, except for a few who escaped, the Yellow Turbans have captured all of them." Guan Yu came to report his merits.

Li Mengxi and Liu Bei looked at each other and finally finished.

"Second brother, thank you for your hard work. Let's go! Go back to the camp and prepare food and wine to reward the meritorious people tonight!" Liu Bei laughed loudly.

Lowering his head, Liu Bei looked at Li Mengxi and asked with a smile, "Xi'er, I have to take your chicken and duck again."

The chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep raised by the army were all raised by Li Mengxi. If he wanted to reward meritorious people and get a lot of meat, he naturally had to ask Li Mengxi for it.

Li Mengxi nodded, looking thoughtful. After a while, he said, "There should be three more sheep. Let's kill them all. The military doctor is in need of catgut."

I want to keep the pig for use.

As for chickens and ducks, there are seven roosters in the army. I will give you six... no, I will give you four.

There are also three drakes for you.

Big goose, I’ll give it all to you.”

Li Mengxi disliked the fact that the big goose was slow to lay eggs, ate too much, and even bit Xiao Bian's hand, so he simply killed all the geese.

There are so many, but meat can really provide very little.

There were only three sheep and less than twenty chickens and ducks in total.

In this siege, there were three thousand people participating in the siege. Such a small amount of meat was not enough.

However, there are many fish, and one fish is enough for each person.

As for the drinks, we can't provide them. There must be many wounded soldiers, so the alcohol will probably be used up soon.

Just now, Li Mengxi said there were seven roosters. He originally said he would give Liu Bei six, leaving one to crow. Why did he suddenly change his mind and say he would only give four, leaving three?

Because, Li Mengxi suddenly thought that most of the roosters in the army today are civilians. Even the soldiers were mostly farmers in their predecessors. Now, a rooster can improve the morale and stabilize the morale of the army.

When everyone wakes up in the morning, the surroundings are quiet, and they hear a rooster crow, suddenly feeling like they are at home;

Hearing the crow of two roosters is like a neighbor;

Three roosters crow, one after another, like a village home.

In short, the role of roosters in stabilizing people's hearts can be one, two, or three. With each additional rooster, its role in stabilizing people's hearts becomes stronger.

Three is enough, any more will not increase the amount significantly.

Therefore, Li Mengxi decided to keep at least three roosters in the army.

A flock of at least three roosters is required. There is a big difference between roosters crowing in a group, in pairs, and in single roosters.

Liu Bei ordered his soldiers to go back and tell Lu Zhong that tomorrow, he would lead his troops to break up camp and come to Nanhe City to gather together.

He also ordered the traveling caravans, fast horses and light chariots to bring the chickens, ducks, sheep and geese first.

The messenger left in a hurry.

Li Mengxi and Liu Bei said goodbye and went to see the wounded soldiers.

Liu Bei said, "My second brother and I will go together."

——

The wounded barracks were filled with mourning.

There were so many wounded soldiers that everywhere there were stretchers placed on the ground.

With just one glance, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Li Mengxi fell silent.

All the military doctors in the army followed.

Nowadays, from the beginning when there was only one military doctor Tian Bu, to the successive recruitment, there are more than twenty military doctors. These more than twenty people are all at the level of medical experts.

But with more than twenty military doctors, there are still too few manpower.

If there is one military doctor for a hundred people, thirty will be enough.

In order not to disturb the diagnosis and treatment of the military doctors, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Li Mengxi stood aside and did not go in.

There was a military doctor with a wine jar and a small bowl beside him. On the other side, there was a basket filled with strips of cloth. Next to the basket was a water urn. The water in the urn looked like hot water.

, steaming.

On the stretcher, a soldier was hit by an arrow. The ground where the arrow hit was his thigh. The military doctor held down the soldier's thigh and pulled it out. The arrow was pulled out, and there was a spurt of blood. The wounded soldier immediately screamed. The wounded soldier screamed for a while longer.

, the military doctor took a cloth strip, moistened it with some hot water, and wiped the blood from the wounded soldier's arrow wound from the inside out. After the cleaning was completed, he threw away the cloth strip and picked up another clean cloth from the basket.

Roll up the strip on your finger, then wet it with alcohol.

"It hurts, but you can bear it." The military doctor explained, then wetted the cloth with alcohol and touched the wound directly.

The wounded soldier immediately hugged his leg in pain and screamed.

After that, the military doctor changed the cloth strip several times and disinfected it with alcohol several times. The last time, he wetted the cloth strip with alcohol and dripped a lot of alcohol into the arrow wound.

During this period, the wounded soldiers kept wailing.

The military doctor used a silk bandage to wrap the wound twice around the wounded soldier's leg. After tying the bandage into a knot, he was finished and stood up to go to the next place.

Li Mengxi watched the entire process of treating wounded soldiers by a military doctor. Li Mengxi was not familiar with this military doctor, but his method of using alcohol was rigorous and there were no major problems.

It seems that Tian Bu did a good job teaching the other military doctors how to use alcohol.

At this moment, a man came over from the wounded barracks.

"Big brother! Second brother!"

Zhang Fei, who was completely naked from the waist up, came over with a linen towel in his hand, wiping the blood on his face.

Liu Bei and Guan Yu were shocked when they saw Zhang Fei.

At this time, Zhang Fei's bare chest had several shallow wounds and his chest was covered in blood. Especially Zhang Fei's face, which was covered in blood, looked scary.

"Third brother!" Liu Bei hurried over, "You are so injured!" Liu Bei was surprised, "Quick, find a military doctor..."

Not saying that the military doctor was okay, but when he mentioned the military doctor, the linen cloth in Zhang Fei's hand stopped wiping the blood, "Hey! I just went to find him, and Tian Bu said that I wasn't seriously injured. Stay back, I'm waiting."

Liu Bei suddenly became angry for no reason. As soon as the fire started, it suddenly went out again.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Liu Bei suddenly turned his head and looked at Li Mengxi behind him, and Li Mengxi also turned his head and looked towards Liu Bei.

A few days ago, we had a dedicated discussion on who to save first and who to save later.

The military doctor has been given an arbitrary position. Regardless of the seniority of the injured soldier, whether he is the commander-in-chief of the three armies or an ordinary soldier, whoever is seriously injured will be saved first.

When something happened to his brother, Liu Bei suddenly felt that although the rules were good and fair, people had selfish motives after all.

The military doctors all said that the third brother's injury was minor, that's all, so let's wait.

Liu Bei took the linen cloth from Zhang Fei's hand and wiped the blood off Zhang Fei's body.

"...You can't wipe it like this." Li Mengxi raised his head and said, "You have to ask the military doctor to come. You have to carefully wipe the area around the wound clean, and then use a clean cloth to wipe away from the area around the wound. Otherwise, it will be dusty and sweaty.

It was all rubbed into the wound."

After saying that, Li Mengxi frowned and said, "Third General, which military doctor gave you linen and asked you to wipe it yourself?"

Zhang Fei chuckled and said, "The military doctor is just as stupid as you. He is supposed to wipe away the blood, but he couldn't count on their military doctors to do it easily, so I took a linen cloth myself."

I figured it out, it's not that the military doctors are incompetent or that there's a problem with the process, it's Zhang Fei who doesn't follow the rules.

He was not allowed to wipe it randomly, but looking at Zhang Fei, wiping the blood was like taking a bath, wiping and scratching the linen cloth randomly.

It's okay, if you mess around with it, the wound will become infected even if it doesn't.

Zhang Fei's mistake was that he knew the detailed principles of death caused by trauma and did not know what infection was, so the ignorant are fearless.

This has exposed a big problem, knowledge about preventing infection and what infection is. It is not enough for military doctors to know this knowledge. Ordinary soldiers must also improve their hygiene level.

Otherwise, ordinary soldiers would use who knows what kind of unorthodox method. If there is a wound on their arm, they would just grab ashes from the ground and sprinkle it on the wound.

If this is the case, no matter how high the level of military medicine is, will it be useful? There is nothing we can do to save it.

Health knowledge is probably the most important knowledge that should be popularized in the military today. As for the four arithmetic operations and writing, let’s stop for now.

Thinking of this, Li Mengxi wanted to find Tian Bu.
