Chapter five hundred and eighty development of military medicine
After dinner, Su Chen bid farewell to Bai Susuyiyi, he left Bai Mansion and took a carriage and walked on the streets of Runzhou City.
The bright moon is in the sky, and the stars are dotted. At night in the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, the breeze blows, the water waves rippling, the long streets and narrow alleys, the blue bricks and black tiles, the willows and cicadas in the distance create a picture of stillness and movement.
The carriage followed the river embankment to the General's Mansion. There were also some sounds of silk and bamboo wind music on the Runzhou River. Some powerful and powerful gentry and playboys still did not forget to live in drunkenness and dream of death under such wars.
Maybe they feel that sincerity will not be broken, and life will remain the same.
Perhaps they think that "you must be happy when you are in a happy life. Don't let the golden cup be empty and the flowers are enough to be broken, and don't wait for the flowers to be broken in vain." Once the city is broken, their wealthy life or destiny will not be controlled by themselves. Therefore, they want to enjoy themselves in time and numb themselves, which is just a negative escape from the world.
"The business girl did not know the hatred of the country's destruction, but she still sang the back garden flowers across the river."
Su Chen didn't naturally think of this sentence. Perhaps the demise before the Southern Tang Dynasty was related to this. Most people actually did not care about this kind of war because guarding cities and countries was not their task or their responsibility. Only soldiers and some aspiring people would pay attention.
The changes of dynasties were very common in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and there would be too many wars and court changes.
Therefore, many people have become accustomed to it and do not even feel that they belong to any country. They are full of uncertainty, so they don’t care so much, because no matter who the city belongs to, their lives are still the same. This is what most people think.
Su Chen sighed lightly, put down the curtains of the car, and continued on the way.
After about half an incense stick, the carriage arrived at the west side of Runzhou City, where the temporary general's mansion was placed.
This is a large mansion. The person who lived in the past was an official from the previous dynasty. He used to be the Minister of War. After his illness, his family declined. His descendants sold the property and were taken over by the local family and presented it to the trusted governor.
Wang Chaoyue didn't want to be idle, so he bought it with a symbolic 100 guan, without leaving any talk.
This time, Wang Yuechao personally sent someone to free it up and gave it to Lu Jiang to live in, and it was temporarily designated as a temporary general's residence. After retreating, Lu Jiang left and returned it to the residence.
After Su Chen announced his name, he would be quickly introduced by two guards, and the rest of the guards would stay outside the door to wait.
When he approached the yard, Su Chen saw the moonlight, Lu Jiang was practicing the red tassel spear in the yard.
Although Lu Jiang is over 60 years old, he still has power when dancing his gun. It can be seen that Lu Jiang has martial arts skills.
There were several figures standing in the courtyard, namely the deputy general Ma Xiong, his younger brother Lu Xi, and several personal guards, all of whom were Lu Jiang's confidants.
After Su Chen came, Ma Xiong, Lu Xi and others bowed their hands and bowed to Su Jianjun.
Lu Jiang also stopped and stood up with his gun. His qi and blood were churning, and he sweated a lot. He threw the gun to a personal guard, took a towel and wiped the sweat beads on his forehead and face.
"Su Jun is here."
"General Lu is very good at martial arts!" Su Chen praised.
Lu Jiang sighed and said with emotion: "Looking at me! I am a little old, no longer as young as you. If you don't play often, you can't play with guns.
Su Chen said: "General Lu is still strong, so don't worry too much."
Lu Jiang nodded slightly, looked at Su Chen, and asked, "Judge Su, you are so late and you are still visiting, but what is important?"
Su Chen nodded and said, "There is indeed one thing that needs to be discussed with General Lu. It is about expanding the number of military doctors. I plan to recruit a group of people in the city. After a short training, I can enter the army as a military assistant to quickly treat the wounded. In addition, the Bai family is preparing to make a batch of the latest painkillers, anti-inflammatory drugs, etc., which can save the injured soldiers in large quantities and prevent them from getting worse, having fever or even inflammatory deaths. These new drugs can help them survive to a large extent..."
After hearing Su Chen talk about his thoughts in detail, Lu Jiang said to Su Chen: "Your ideas are all very good, and the starting point is for our soldiers. Here, I would like to thank you for your kindness on behalf of the soldiers and be able to consider these for the wounded. If you can reduce the injury and death rate of the next half, then the wounded soldiers in our army will be grateful for your kindness."
Su Chen did not take credit and said, "Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. I am both a military supervisor and a doctor. I can't bear to see those soldiers who defended the Tang Dynasty and resisted the enemy because of their injuries and no medicine. So, I took out these prescriptions and found the Bai family to make herbs, and taught some surgical rescue methods to the apprentices. Of course, this is not just me alone. General Lu and several generals also have their share. We are in the same group."
Lu Jiang heard that Su Chen did not want to take the credit for the entire time, so he nodded slightly and was quite satisfied.
In fact, their identities cannot be compared with Su Chen. After all, Su Chen was so popular that he was a new high in the court and was a favorite student of Han Xizai. The entire Sun Party placed his hopes on him, including the royal family, and his talent was the best in Jiangdong. Lu Jiang and others were far inferior to his favor and status.
Therefore, even if Su Chen enjoys the merits alone, they can't do anything and even can't get involved. After all, this thing was actually developed by Su Chen. So when they heard Su Chen say this and admit that it was all the credit of the same group, they were all very happy.
This shows that Su Chen is willing to treat them as his own people and as brothers in his robes, and his mind is also open-minded.
"Su Jianjun, I can support all your suggestions. Please let go. Tomorrow you can start and issue a notice to recruit some people to serve as military doctors. How to teach you the medical skills of saving lives and healing the wounded, you still need to be responsible and take care of it."
Su Chen replied: "There is no problem, I can take someone to do it."
After Lu Jiang said this, he asked someone to prepare tea, sat on a bamboo chair, and asked Su Chen to sit down, and said, "Judge Su, let's drink a few cups of tea instead of wine. Today's fierce battle, everyone has worked hard. Let's communicate with you while there is no war at the moment.
Su Chen nodded, picked up the tea cup, and drank tea with Lu Jiang.
Lu Jiang said: "The layout of the Wu Yue soldiers' barracks has been found by my scouts. They entered the city at night and sent news. This time, they only brought the food and grass from the 50,000 troops for half a month. The supply from the rear was transferred from Changzhou. Some of the food and grass in Changzhou were plundered by the local counties and towns and pavilions, and some of them came from Wu Yue. If we can send a surprise soldier to burn their food and grass, the army outside Runzhou will be short of food and grass. They will either retreat or re-register the food and grass, which will affect their confidence in garrisoning here and dampen morale."
Su Chen said: "Is the general planning to send a suicide squad and disguise himself in Changzhou City to attack the granary?
General Lu Jiang nodded: "Yes, but I just think about it this way. After all, Changzhou has occupied the granary by Wu and Yue soldiers, and there must be many people guarding it. Even if we send dozens or even one hundred dead soldiers to mingle into the city, it is not realistic to attack the granary."
"Unless these people are very skilled in martial arts, that's another matter. But our army cannot pick such talents. It's not like the martial arts novels you wrote, where everyone goes over the eaves and walls, and wins more with less. Therefore, to keep an eye on the time when Wu Yue soldiers deliver food, this requires spies and You Xiao to conduct reconnaissance and anti-reconnaissance, and to obtain reliable information, our army will send thousands of people to attack the food road."
Su Chen understood that this became a war between spies. Only reliable news and accurate routes can set up ambush at critical moments.
Lu Jiang said again: "But the number of scouts in the army is limited and cannot be so meticulous. Therefore, more scouts and You Xiao need to be trained, but time may not be waiting for me!"
Su Chen thought of the Secret Spy Department and said, "Leave this to me. After all, I have been in Runzhou City for a long time and know some big families. I can ask them to send some people to Runzhou to investigate. In addition, I will apply for the Secret Spy Department to the court to help, send a large number of scouts and You Xiao to accurately investigate the news of Wu Yue's food delivery. Once we get it, we can counterattack and cut off the Wu Yue's food and grass."
When Lu Jiang heard this, he smiled and said, "Okay, then there will be a lot of military service in Su Su."
