Han Dao world

Chapter 441 Unconventional
Han Sui returned to the big tent of the Chinese army, recruited Han Yin and Cheng Gongying, and conveyed the emperor's oral edict.

Han Yin became anxious immediately. "How could Song Jian surrender under such conditions?"

"If you don't surrender, you will be killed." Han Sui's face sank like water. "Prepare for a strong attack. After capturing the city, not only will he die, but his entire family will die."

"Siege will kill people." Han Yin became anxious, and his voice became louder. "I don't know when the preparations will be completed for this icy and snowy mountain logging. If not, I will have to spend the New Year on the battlefield. Ah Weng, are you not afraid of opposition from various ministries?"

Han Sui took the case against him. "Shut up! Do you think I don't know this? The emperor refuses to accept surrender, what can I do?"

Seeing that Han Sui was angry, Han Yin faltered.He knew Han Sui's temper, if he hadn't been in a hurry, he would never have lost his composure like this.No matter how much you talk back, it is possible to slap him in the face in public.

Han Yin secretly glanced at Cheng Gongying, hoping that Cheng Gongying could persuade Han Sui.A strong attack is definitely not a good way, not even the original plan.Otherwise, they wouldn't spend so much time on the road, or even send troops now, but wait until next spring.

To siege a city requires the preparation of a large number of siege equipment, all of which must be cut and built on the spot, and it will not take a month to get it done.

But now that there are only a few days left before the New Year, accepting Song Jian's surrender is the most worry-free way.

Celebrating the new year on the battlefield is definitely not an ideal choice.All battalions will come to beg for wine, meat and rewards, which is a huge expense.If Song Jian's surrender is accepted, Song Jian can bear all these expenses, and Han Sui can still make a fortune from it.Now Han Sui has to bear it himself, which is tantamount to letting Han Sui cut his flesh.

Cheng Gongying frowned and said nothing.

After a while, Cheng Gongying said: "Does the general hope that after this battle, he can lead the army to march east?"

Annoyed, Han Sui nodded.

Cheng Gongying is a confidant, there is no need to hide it, and he can't hide it.After the emperor gave him a promise, he revealed the news to Cheng Gongying, even before Han Yin.

"Since that's the case, why don't you treat Yanhan as the city of Ye and have a real review?"

Han Sui rolled his eyes, thoughtful.He motioned Cheng Gongying to continue.

Cheng Gongying made two points: the biggest enemy of the emperor is Yuan Shao.Although Yuan Shao did not claim the title of king or emperor, his heart of disobedience was obvious.Yecheng is equivalent to his royal city.If you want to take Yuan Shao, you must attack Yecheng.

Yecheng is strong, and attacking Yecheng will be an arduous battle, which will test the general's command ability.

When Huangfusong and others pacified the Yellow Turban, the field battle was overwhelming, but they encountered great troubles when they attacked the city.Zhu Jun attacked Wancheng, and Lu Zhi and Huangfu Song attacked Guangzong, all of which consumed a lot of manpower and material resources.Lu Zhi was also dismissed because of ineffective siege.

It is recognized that the Xiliang army is good at field warfare and not good at attacking cities.

The emperor refused Song Jian's request to surrender, not necessarily to make things difficult, but to see Han Sui's ability to attack the city.

Of course, there may be another intention, to see if Han Sui really contributes to the court.

Song Jian and Han Sui are not old friends.If Han Sui refused to be cruel to Song Jian, how could the emperor trust Han Sui?
After listening to Gongying's analysis, Han Sui slapped his thigh. "Yuan Wei, I think so too." Immediately he shouted at Han Yin: "Zhu Zi, learn a lot, don't shout and kill at every turn, use your rock-like brain."

Han Yin was scolded inexplicably.But he was used to it and shrugged as if nothing had happened.

When Han Sui saw this, he became even angrier, and couldn't help but think of Jia Xu's words.

With Han Yin's incompetent appearance, the Han family may really have to rely on the help of their daughter and son-in-law if they want to grow rich.

Han Sui ordered people to enter the city to spread the word, ordering Song Jian to surrender unconditionally, and at the same time summoned the generals to prepare for a strong attack.

Just as Han Yin was worried, when he heard that there might be a strong attack on Fanghan, all the generals showed embarrassment.

Han Sui had been prepared for a long time, and promised that after the city was broken, the spoils would be distributed according to the credit.Before breaking the city, he will provide enough wine and meat for all the soldiers to ensure that everyone will have a good year.

Seeing Han Sui's generosity, all the generals were a little surprised.

Han Sui was not a rough man like Dong Zhuo, who could slaughter the family's cattle and entertain guests.He has always calculated carefully, on the premise of not losing money.With such a large amount of money now, even if he wins the city of Fanghan, he will not be able to recoup the cost, so he will be at a loss.

Unreasonable.

Han Sui also knew that his behavior was abnormal, but he couldn't explain it, he could only show it with practical actions.

He distributed a batch of wine and meat that day to boost morale.Immediately afterwards, he discussed with the tribal leaders in the nearby valley to buy a large amount of cattle and sheep from them, and recruited Li Shen, the prefect of Longxi, and asked him to send someone back to Didao to purchase a large amount of supplies.

With the wine and meat, the morale of the camp suddenly rose, and there was joy in the camp, and scenes of singing and dancing could be seen everywhere.

In contrast, the emperor's imperial camp seemed a little deserted. The soldiers continued to train, study, and perform their duties as usual, and there were not too many changes due to the approach of the new year.

-

Liu Xie bent down and walked into the central tent of the Imperial Medical Office.

Standing in the center of the large tent, Hua Tuo was dissecting a sheep under the light of a few tallow candles. Both arms were covered in blood, and the leather apron between the chest and abdomen was also stained red with blood.He said while dissecting, and there were two young men next to him, one was working hard to draw a picture, and the other was recording Hua Tuo's explanation.

More than a dozen people gathered in a circle, each holding a pen and paper in their hands, while listening to the memo, all of them stretched their necks, opened their eyes wide, and concentrated, without noticing that Liu Xie appeared behind them.

"For doctors, sheep intestines are the most precious." Hua Tuo carefully lifted a piece of sheep intestines. "The wound is sutured with suture made from sheep intestines. After the wound recovers, it is not necessary to remove the stitches, and it can avoid a second laparotomy when dealing with visceral injuries. Even when dealing with trauma, if the wound is too large to be sutured, the sheep can also be used. The intestines were cut open, covered the wound, and then bandaged with a clean cloth..."

"So that's the case." A young apprentice laughed. "The next time a sheep is slaughtered, no one is allowed to eat the intestines."

The others laughed too.

A young apprentice raises his hand to ask a question. "Doctor Hua, the cow is bigger, can the intestines be used?"

"It might work, but I haven't tried it yet, so I can't give you an accurate answer." Hua Tuo put the intestines on a plate aside. "If you have a chance, you can try it. But before experimenting, you must learn how to deal with sheep intestines and cow intestines. If you don't handle them well, even sheep intestines will cause wounds to fester."

"Why does the wound fester? Is it because sheep are livestock and are not suitable for use on humans?"

"The specific reason needs to be investigated. What I can tell you now is only the method I have found out, and it is a feasible method." Hua Tuo said while dissecting: "You should remember that medicine is a practical knowledge. There are many medical skills. It's all learned from practice, and there is no ready-made reason for you to follow. So, don't be superstitious about anyone. Whether I am good or Ji Ling, there may be mistakes. If you find something that we haven't talked about Things, even the opposite, don’t be afraid, just try to prove it with your heart. As long as it works, it’s right.”
