Chapter 58 The doctor arrives (2)

This peasant woman was one of the prisoners whom both Liu Bei and Li Mengxi valued.

If we talk about being lonely and helpless, there are few people who are more lonely and helpless than this woman dragging her baby.

"Sister-in-law, come here."

When Liu Bei asked someone to come over, he still gave him his hand.

Li Mengxi had raised his hand, and was about to wave, but when he saw Liu Bei's posture, Li Mengxi put his hand down.

Wrong thinking.

There is a saying, if you wave it, it will come, if you wave it, it will go.

The gesture of waving is really not as polite as cupping your hand, it is too frivolous.

Li Mengxi paid for himself. If he waved to others, since he was just a little baby, it didn't matter.

But Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, a man about 17 feet tall, waved to a woman, which seemed a bit wild.

Even when facing prisoners, Liu Xuande still maintained his self-respect and showed no lack of etiquette. Li Mengxi saw this in surprise and a little admiration.

Although their relationship was short-lived, Li Mengxi thought carefully about Liu Bei and there was no sense of distance between him and him.

He is an approachable person, even Xiao Bian is not afraid of Liu Bei and does not resist when Liu Bei hugs him.

As Guan Yu was very powerful, Xiao Zhuan was a little afraid of Guan Yu and was a little reserved around Guan Yu.

As for Zhang Fei, his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot and he looked so fierce that Xiao Bian was even more afraid.

Liu Xuande's personality and charm really have some merits.

It is not easy to leave a name in history.

Under the great reputation, there is no empty person.

When Li Mengxi discovered Liu Bei's advantage in treating others with thorough etiquette, Li Mengxi discovered that Liu Bei was indeed worthy of praise in this regard.

Among the prisoners, there were many elderly people.

Some old people were still afraid of Liu Bei, an officer and soldier, and they were all trembling when they came out.

When Liu Bei saw this, he smiled on his face and said to him that the old man was still in good health. He naturally supported the old man with his hands and exchanged a few words with the old man.

The old man's expression changed from fear to peace in two sentences.

Before the old man could recover, Liu Bei stepped forward again.

After all, it's getting dark soon.

The old man with a stooped figure and thin clothes looked at Liu Bei's back with a blank look in his eyes.

Li Mengxi saw all this.

If there is any way to make the captives return home, Liu Bei himself has such ability.

Previously, it was the first time he led troops to fight and it was also the first time he captured prisoners. The affairs were complicated and Liu Bei could not have expected them.

Finally, Li Mengxi stopped picking people. He was not tall and couldn't see anyone when he raised his head.

It was all done by Liu Bei alone.

Even if it takes two seconds to look at one person, if there are 1,800 rebels, it will take at least 5,000 seconds, more than 80 minutes, and nearly an hour and a half.

Finally, it got dark, and Liu Bei still hadn't finished picking out all the people.

I had no choice but to continue holding the torch.

I don't know how long it took, but the last piece of prisoners was picked out, and the night was already dark, and I couldn't see where I was.

Liu Bei turned around and saw that there were many figures behind him. There were so many people. Liu Bei was stunned for a moment.

Seeing these many old, weak, women and children, they all looked towards me.

Liu Bei didn't know how many people there were.

"I don't know if the tent can be used." Liu Bei muttered softly.

"The total number of people is one hundred and fifty-five, including eighty-two women."

A childish voice sounded.

Liu Bei tilted his torch and looked down. Hey, if it's not our little strategist, who is it?

Li Mengxi actually wrote down the details, which surprised Liu Bei.

One hundred and fifty-five people, ten people share a tent, only a military tent is needed, less than twenty.

There are more than fifty tents in the army, which is completely enough.

Because of this delay, even though the meal was ready, neither the hero nor the captives had eaten.

Liu Bei thought for a while and decided to free up the tent beds first before starting the tent.

So Liu Bei ordered the sergeants to vacate twenty tents and two hundred beds.

After a while, the centurion came to report that the tent had been vacated and the beds had been placed.

"Let's start the meal!" Liu Bei waved the torch in his hand and ordered to eat.

The food of the rebels is not much different from that of the Yellow Turbans, but there is a difference in the amount of rice.

Xiangyong has a group of ten people and one earthen pot or clay pot of porridge. Ten people eat this pot of porridge. Depending on the thickness of the porridge and the amount of water added, each person can eat two or three bowls.

As for the prisoners, the same porridge was of varying thickness, and each person only had two spoons. It was not as rich as the soldiers, and they were not very full, but they were not starving.

After finishing the meal in a hurry, my brother didn't even finish the bowl of rice and said he didn't want to eat it.

Li Mengxi had no choice but to eat what was left by his brother.

After the meal is finished, the dishes are divided among the people.

It is not appropriate for men and women to share tents, so the men and women are separated first. The women are divided into eighty-two tents and divided into nine tents.

The rest belong to other old and weak people.

Tents were divided one by one and people were divided one by one. Soon, the tents vacated by the brave villagers were all divided.

Li Mengxi didn't know how the old and the weak would feel when they were cared for and slept in a warm bed.

After Liu Bei had arranged the people, he stood on the other side with his eyes slightly farther away, where the remaining prisoners were.

The centurion was called, and Liu Bei ordered the centurion to take firewood from the army and light dozens of fires for the prisoners to keep them warm at night.

At this point, the prisoners have been sorted out.

There are three mistakes in the management of rebel prisoners: one is the loss of capital, the other is the loss of control, and the third is the loss of the people's hearts.

The problem is half solved.

Li Mengxi was right next to Liu Bei, standing side by side with Liu Bei. One was taller and the other was shorter, looking at the entire camp with a full sense of accomplishment.

Suddenly he remembered the woman's sick baby, and Li Mengxi suggested to go and have a look.

Liu Bei led Li Mengxi, and Li Mengxi took his younger brother. The three of them worked together, and then called the witch doctor. Together, the four of them came to the tent where the women were resting.

At this time, the old, weak, women and children who had been marching for a day had probably rested. Liu Bei could not enter the tent, so he only called softly outside the tent and called his sister-in-law several times.

To Li Mengxi's ears, it was like Sun Wukong asking to borrow a banana fan, and an inexplicable smile suddenly appeared on Li Mengxi's face.

The woman came out of the tent with the baby in her arms. Liu Bei asked if the baby was getting better.

Li Mengxi even touched the little baby's forehead, but it was still hot.

I've had this fever for so long, what should I do if it's burned out?

Just when he was worried, Liu Bei turned around and suddenly looked into the distance, "Second brother and the others are back."

Li Mengxi was confused and looked over there. He listened with his ears but did not hear the sound of horse hooves.

Thinking of the knowledge point in the textbook about solid sound transmission in physics class, it was said that ancient archers could hear the sound of horse hooves far away while sleeping with their quivers on their pillows.

Thinking of this, Li Mengxi crawled underground and put his ear close to the ground. Sure enough, he heard the rumble of horse hooves.

He clapped his hands and stood up, "But there was the sound of horse hooves."

Li Mengxi answered.

Liu Bei saw Li Mengxi climbing to the ground to listen to the sound of horse hooves. Liu Bei felt that Li Mengxi was still just a baby, clumsy and cute.

Liu Bei couldn't help laughing.

Not long after Li Mengxi finished speaking, the sound of horse hooves was approaching.

A horseman came running through the camp and said, "Yun Chang, here you are!"

Liu Bei called.

When Guan Yu heard the sound, he dismounted and led his horse over.

Immediately, an old doctor with a long white beard and a bag on his back appeared. He looked like he didn't know how to ride a horse. He carefully held the horse's back with both hands and did not dare to let go.

"Brother, I traveled more than twenty miles and searched seven places in the village, and finally found a doctor. Fortunately, he did not disgrace his life!"

Guan Yu came to pay a visit.

The doctor finally came.

The stone fell from everyone's hearts for a while.
