Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 131 Brain Supplement
Li Shan has never had such a happy moment. As an intern doctor, there is a day when he vomits during surgery.

Uh, it needs to be emphasized that this vomiting is not a physical factor, but a psychological factor.

For nearly ten years in the university, apart from observing the general teachers, the opportunity to witness the flesh body is very rare. After going to the hospital for internship, at most, he would be an assistant, and the surgeon would not even think about it.

One operation after another, with almost no rest, Li Shan was so excited that his hands and feet went numb, but the speed was quite fast. After all, the equipment was not handy, so many operations could not be performed.

As an orthopedic doctor, chopping with a knife and an axe is a common practice, the key is to cut down. With the current medical conditions, it is often impossible to stop the bleeding.

Therefore, Li Shan's processing speed is relatively fast, but he is not in a good mood...In the previous life, many wounded soldiers could be fully recovered, but now, whether they can survive depends on luck and their own will force.

"How many more?" Li Shan took the time to ask.

"There are... two more." It was Ling Jing who answered.

With old arms and legs, Ling Jing didn't go to the front to join in the fun, but followed Li Shan to the wounded barracks to help.

Although he is a counselor under Dou Jiande's command, Ling Jing also has excellent management skills. He is not the kind of literati who can only talk handsomely, and arranges everything in an orderly manner.

Let people squat around the city wall to pick up the wounded soldiers, send them to wait outside the operating room, and then let people send the bandaged but unable to move to resettlement, and those wounded soldiers who are difficult for Li Shan to deal with can be arranged in another place.

"Only two left?" Li Shan was a little surprised, and asked after a pause, "Stopped in front?"

"Leave someone to stand guard in front. If there is a truce, report immediately..." Ling Jing shook his head, "Not yet."

Li Shan's face was unpredictable, so there are only two possibilities, either the enemy's siege was unfavorable, they did nothing, their morale was depressed, and the number of wounded soldiers of the Tang army was greatly reduced.

Either the battle was brutal, so fewer wounded soldiers were sent because there were more dead.

Ling Jing caught sight of Li Shan's expression and said with a smile: "There is nothing to worry about. If the situation is unfavorable and the others don't say anything, Ding Fang will report it a long time ago."

Li Shan returned to the operating room with a muffled grunt, and finished taking care of the last two wounded soldiers. One had a severed ankle and the other had a cut in his waist.

The former is not troublesome to deal with, just stop the bleeding, but the latter is much more troublesome, and if it is not good, it will kill you.

But if the latter can survive, he will be no different from ordinary people, while the former... will be disabled for the rest of his life.

After a few words of comfort, Li Shan took off his mask, washed his hands, and said casually, "Fortunately, it's winter. If it's hot in summer, there will be more casualties."

Seeing that Ling Jing remained silent, Li Shan asked, "How many wounded soldiers have you sent?"

"There were 73 people before and after, twenty of them were difficult to treat, and they were all placed in the east." Ling Jing didn't even have to wrench his fingers, "The rest can survive...all of them were sent to the west."

After a pause, Ling Jing added: "It was you who said those wounded soldiers could live."

"Yeah." Li Shan shook off the water droplets on his hand, "Go to the west and have a look."

After Li Shan set off from Chang'an, he was keenly aware that the military camp in this era did not have the concept of a so-called field hospital. Even the life and death of middle and lower-level generals.

It's nothing more than bare hands. It was the Sui and Tang dynasties who wanted to set up a field hospital... Li Shan didn't have such extravagant hopes.

Therefore, Li Shan had thought about it a long time ago. If he wanted to make achievements in the army, he could only choose the wounded barracks... To be precise, he chose nursing.

Therefore, Li Shan began to train the young and strong in Zhujiagou very early on. A few days before the war was about to start, he asked people to collect cloth, various medicines, beds, and door panels in the city, and he also specially selected a place. Set up wounded barracks.

The Wounded Battalion was headed by Fan Shiyi, Zhu Shitou, Zhao Da, and others, all of which followed Li Shan's regulations, and followed Nightingale's every move.

Of course, it's always a bit nondescript for men to do nursing, but women can't be allowed... If it weren't for Nightingale in later generations, the so-called guards would not be dominated by women.

A group of people walked to the west side. This is not a small alley with more than ten houses in a row. Li Shan did not go to see the wounded soldiers first, but stopped to observe the surrounding environment.

This is the house chosen by Li Shan himself. The place is not small and the conditions are very good. You can see a few green plants from time to time, which is good for the patients.

Zhu Shitou ran out from inside and saw Li Shan frowning and staring at the bluestone slab under his feet.

"what is this?"

Zhu Shitou was so excited that he hurriedly asked someone to bring a bucket of water to wash away the blood on the bluestone board.

Li Shan snorted, walked in, pushed open the first door, the expression on his face became very...very professional, with a smile, and also a trace of indifference, and A trace of impatience.

"Does it hurt?"

"Pain is what it should be. If there is no pain, there will be problems."

"Let's raise it with peace of mind. Someone will take care of you when you're thirsty or hungry. Meals will be delivered to you. Water..."

Fan Shiyi who was on the side hurriedly said, "The water bladder is next to the bed."

Li Shan nodded, whether it was for washing or drinking, wounded soldiers needed sufficient water supply. He had already explained this point. There was a small river nearby, which was why Li Shan chose this alley.

Fan Shiyi smiled and said, "If it wasn't for Mr. Lang, how would you be so lucky..."

The continuous sound of praise sounded, Ling Jing watched coldly, and could not see anything from Li Shan's face.

Li Shan said a few more words of comfort, got up and looked at the room, about 20 square meters, with four wounded soldiers lying there, it was a bit crowded, and he asked the county magistrate for a few more houses.

"Pi Hou, come here." Li Shan called Fan Shiyi, pointing to the south side of the house, "Bring some bricklayers and make a hole there."

Fan Shiyi was stunned for a moment, "Mr. Lang, isn't that cold?"

"Give them more bedding, if it's not possible, then plug the hole at night." Li Shan warned, "You have to find a bricklayer to do it. Don't be reckless, and be careful to destroy the house...every house will be destroyed , this thing has to be done today.”

Fan Shiyi went to find a bricklayer in a daze. Li Shan thought about it and explained: "If it's cold at night, you need more bedding. Don't be frozen. Make a hole to ventilate. Firstly, the smell is bad, and secondly, the wound is difficult to heal."

In fact, the latter is Li Shan's nonsense, and traditional Chinese medicine does not pay attention to ventilation, which is required by nursing science.

Looking at the past, Li Shan has received countless gratitude in every ward. Many soldiers under Tian Liu'an participated in the Luoyang War last year. They are all veterans, but they have never seen such a scene.

A man in his thirties talked about the Battle of Qianshuiyuan with emotion. Liu Wenjing was defeated, and the wounded barracks were overcrowded. Few people were starved to death.

After leaving the house, Li Shan asked about the diet again, and told him that there must be meat for every meal, even if it was not enough for each person, there must be meat.

Ling Jing on the side was amazed... In the army of later generations, the wounded soldiers should be given small meals, but in this era, the wounded soldiers may not even have food.

A group of people returned to the operating room, but there were no wounded soldiers. Li Shan couldn't help it, and said to go ahead to see the situation.

"Wonderful idea, find another way." Ling Jing clicked his tongue twice, "There are some methods."

Li Shan glanced strangely and kept walking.

"Throughout the ages, morale is the most important thing in the army." Ling Jing shook his head and said: "During the Spring and Autumn Period, Goujian committed suicide by killing a dead soldier, forcing Wu's army into chaos. He was too vicious and will not be taken by future generations."

"The morale of the army is mainly maintained by food, drinking water and the leader's example. If a soldier cannot drink, he will not drink. If he cannot eat, he will not eat."

"It's also like the king of Qin, leaping across the horse, leading the soldiers, and charging into the battle, so as to boost morale."

Li Shan faintly guessed what Ling Jing meant, and couldn't help grinning. This old man is very thoughtful, and he can make up his mind!

"Yu Wenhua forced the palace to kill the emperor, led Xiaoguo to the north, and once threatened the Central Plains. The most common method was to destroy the city and plunder, which greatly increased the morale of the army, but it also caused chaos in the army, and eventually the army was defeated and died."

"And you chose the wounded barracks to start, it's really a clever idea." The more Ling Jing thought about it, the more he felt that Li Shan's move was a bit imaginative.

In this era, the Fubing system makes a large number of soldiers fearless and brave to fight, but the fear of death is inherent. If the wounded soldiers can be properly treated and resettled, it will definitely give the soldiers more confidence.

Li Shan turned his head and gave Ling Jing a blank expression. Just as he was about to explain a few words, Zhu Ba in front of him suddenly pointed forward, "Look, sir!"

Before Li Shan took a closer look, the city gate in the distance suddenly opened wide, and hundreds of cavalry passed through the gate in an orderly manner. The leader was wearing bright armor, and his horse pointed straight ahead.

At the same time, the sound of drums on the top of the city was loud, and dozens of big men, naked to the waist, beat the drums vigorously with drumsticks in their hands.

Li Shan was excited, ran all the way over, and climbed up the city wall from the side. This area happened to be Liu Jun and Xue Zhong's defense area, and Li Shan was not obstructed.

In this short period of time, the five hundred Tang cavalry began to speed up, like an arrow leaving the string, tearing apart the blocking of the enemy army in front of them effortlessly.

Li Daoxuan pressed his hands on the city wall, his body trembled slightly, and shouted loudly amidst the sound of drums: "Attack in one day, but there is no achievement, and withdraw at dusk. Now is the right time to attack!"

Li Shan stared at the person rushing forward, "Brother Su?"

"Well, he volunteered."

Li Shan was a little nervous. The Turkic army hadn't returned to the north yet. Isn't it too risky to attack at this time?

But Li Shan didn't say anything...Su Dingfang is already outside the city, so it's meaningless to say these things at this time.

However, it is obvious that Tian Liuan and Li Daoxuan are not stupid, nor is Su Dingfang.

The timing of the attack was just right, it was flawless.

Just when Liu Heitai saw the dusk and had no choice but to withdraw his troops.

Just when tens of thousands of soldiers were forced to take turns to attack the city, the casualties were heavy, and the morale of the army was depressed.

Just when more than ten thousand pawns had already started to retreat, and there was a little confusion.

The city gate, which had been closed for several days, suddenly opened wide, and Su Dingfang led five hundred cavalry to appear outside the city.

When the army retreats, it is natural to leave a force to guard against the opponent's pursuit.

But the [-] infantry seemed to persist for a moment before being defeated by the charge of the [-] cavalry.

After defeating the enemy in front of him, Su Dingfang led the cavalry to turn a corner and burst into a newly organized formation of more than a thousand infantry from the side.

The tall horse weighing hundreds of kilograms and the gleaming horse lance long knife easily chiseled into the formation. When the horse lance in Su Dingfang's hand knocked down the opponent's main general, more than a thousand infantry collapsed.

Li Daoxuan at the top of the city was so excited that he couldn't help it. Xue Zhong said regretfully: "It's a pity that the Turks haven't returned to the north, otherwise today's battle will be settled!"

"The Turks are coming!" Liu Jun shouted loudly.

Everyone looked up and saw that two Turkic cavalry had surrounded from the two wings, trying to keep Su Dingfang outside the city.

At this moment, the deafening drumming stopped abruptly. Su Dingfang, who was a few miles away, turned his head and looked back. With a long spear in his hand, he led the cavalry in an arc and galloped towards the city gate.

After all, he is a modern person, Li Shan looked a little confused, Su Dingfang led hundreds of cavalry out of the city, and drove Liu Heitai's troops to flee in all directions, does it make sense?

Going out of the city to fight in the field is exactly what Liu Heita wanted, not to mention that the Turkic cavalry hasn't left yet?

Li Shan turned his head to ask Ling Jing, but saw the old man smiling and looking down the city wall.

Looking at the probe, Li Shan's eyes lit up. Hundreds of Tang soldiers were carrying barrels and pouring kerosene on the siege equipment left behind by the enemy.

Ling Jing sighed: "No wonder you have to venture out of the city, where did Liu Heita get so many pointed wooden donkey carts!"

"A pointed wooden donkey cart?" Li Shan looked carefully, the wooden donkey cart looked like a house, and it seemed to be hollow inside.

"The pointed wooden donkey cart was made by Hou Jing." Ling Jing explained: "The tip of the back is empty, and the soldiers hide in the cart. Pushing the cart forward, they can avoid arrows and stones and reach the city wall."

The inner space is easy to understand, but the back is sharp... Li Shan realized after thinking for a while. The top is a sharp triangle, which can effectively avoid the impact of stone throwing. It was smashed down.

"Back then, Hou Jing used this to attack Jianye, but was later attacked by the defender Yang Kan with fire." Li Daoxuan said halfway, pointing to the front, "Here we come!"

Dozens of cavalry held torches or stooped to ignite, or shot rockets, or threw torches. In a short period of time, a large number of siege equipment such as pointed wooden donkey carts, ramming carts, and ladders ignited raging fires, even blocking the blaze of fire. Liu Heita, who led his troops forward, pressed forward.

At this time, Su Dingfang, who had circled an arc, had led his cavalry back to the city gate, and the Turkic soldiers on both wings had stopped to pursue them.

"Go ahead and break through the formation, flank the enemy's formation, and kill the enemy general..." Xue Zhong praised, and unconsciously drew an arc in the air with his right hand, "Wu Yong does not let Yuchi, the leader is not weak, Shubao, where did Li Langjun come from?" Find such a character!"

Li Daoxuan also looked at it and nodded frequently, "Such an outstanding person, if he returns to Beijing, brother Qin Wang will definitely appreciate it."
