Chapter 1372 Famine and Natural Disaster 530
From the outside, the young general in front of him looked serious; after talking to him for a few words, Mingyi deeply realized the profound meaning of judging people by their appearance.

The young general realized that his true nature had been exposed, and he quickly calmed down and changed his tone, pretending to be calm, "May I know your name, lady?"

"My name is Cheng Mingyi, and I'm a female doctor."

"Madam Cheng, how are you? Thank you for saving them. If it weren't for you, at least half of the 25 seriously injured soldiers would have died due to improper treatment." The young general bowed to express his gratitude and then introduced himself, "I am a young general in the Northwest Army Camp. My surname is Shen and my name is Jinghuai."

"Shen Jinghuai?" Mingyi was slightly startled, and the name of General Shen Guoxi flashed through his mind. "Who is General Shen to?"

Shen Jinghuai looked surprised and said, "It is my father."

Father and son? She thought it was grandfather and grandson.

The General who guards the country is over fifty years old. Although General Shen has a dark complexion, he is actually not very old; at most, he is in his early twenties. From this point of view, General Shen is the General who guards the country's late-born son.

"A good father will have a good son." The words of praise came out of his mouth.

"Mrs. Cheng, you are too kind. I am far behind my father and have a long way to go in the future."

He was obviously very happy, with joy and smile in his eyes, but he said something else.

Mingyi chuckled, "The general has made many military achievements. Over the years, thanks to him guarding Pingyang Pass, he has intimidated the princes of the Central Plains."

The presence of an experienced veteran with great military achievements in guarding the area did indeed intimidate most of the princes; as for the biggest reason why they did not choose to attack the northwest, it was that in their eyes, the Central Plains was a place with vast territory and rich resources, and it was a place that must be fought for, and no one wanted to give up the meat that was about to be obtained.

For this reason, they only saw the immediate benefits and did not take the Northwest seriously.

pity.

After six years of natural disasters, only one in ten people survived. Those who could escape fled, and those who could not escape were killed or injured in countless cases. The once prosperous Central Plains became a world of yellow sand, with no trace of green to be seen within a ten-mile radius.

During such a long time, those people didn't even suspect that it was a punishment from heaven; they still committed all the sins they should have committed, fighting for power, scheming against each other, and having a lot of fun.

Now we realize that the Central Plains has become a dead zone.

Without food and people, all that is left is the little power they hold tightly in their hands; even if they had shown some mercy to the people, it would not have made Heaven so angry.

The Heavenly Dao wants to see a peaceful scene, but all they create is conflict, war, and resentment.
Shen Jinghuai smiled cheerfully, unable to control his joy. "Madam Cheng thinks so too, I also think that father is very great and powerful. When father was guarding Pingyang Pass, I saw many times that the princes of the Central Plains sent orders to scold, coerce and bribe, but father never compromised. He firmly rejected their attempts to win him over and guarded Pingyang Pass wholeheartedly, which prevented the princes from succeeding."

A completely simple-minded boy who worships his father.

"It's really amazing." If he wasn't amazing, how could he have reached the position of a general guarding the country? If he wasn't amazing, how could he have brought his family to the northwest in advance? What he was guarding against were the royal relatives of the Great Xi Dynasty.

As it turns out, he was right.

The Dayi Dynasty had long been corrupt from top to bottom, and the general who guards the country was clear-headed and a rare smart and decisive person.

"However, General Shen, should we talk about setting up tents for the seriously injured patients?" Although it was a bit disappointing to interrupt his enthusiasm, the seriously injured patients were the focus of this incident.

Shen Jinghuai glanced at the rows of seriously injured soldiers, and his desire to talk to Mingyi about his father's greatness faded.

"That's what Madam Cheng said. What do you think should be done?"

Mingyi had a better impression of him, and he did not drag his feet or slack off in his work. "Build a separate tent for them, and I will come to look after them every day. If there are other injured, I will also help with the treatment, but the prerequisite is that the military camp allows me unimpeded access." Only in this way could she bring in the medicinal materials.

The medicinal materials brought in today were entirely dependent on the token given by Zhou Ting.

"Aren't you afraid of affecting your reputation?" He stared at the fair-skinned girl in men's clothing in front of him. Her eyes were as bright as stars, and she had a brightness and confidence that girls nowadays didn't have. Moreover, he could see in her a kind of thing that he could only see in his father - wisdom.

A wisdom that has been accumulated over the years.

It was hard to imagine how a teenage girl could give him this feeling.

“Reputation is important, but it’s also not important.”

Many years later, he still remembered that a bright and beautiful little girl in green stood in front of him as proudly as a man and said to him: Reputation is important, but also not important.

"You are a girl, and you will get married sooner or later. What if someone uses your presence in and out of the military camp as evidence of raping you?"

"Then shut him up."

"Really?" Shen Jinghuai really wanted to see how this arrogant girl would shut him up when that day came. "Well, we've run out of materials to build a tent, so we can vacate a tent for them to recuperate. We'll send someone to move them there later. Madam Cheng, you and your maidservant should be careful."

"Thank you for your kindness, General Shen."

When Shen Jinghuai left, after walking some distance, he couldn't help but look back at her.

She is a very special girl, very beautiful, independent, intelligent and quick-witted.

The soldiers sent by Shen Jinghuai arrived quickly and sent the people into the newly vacated tents; Mingyi and Chunmei were busy. Several of the seriously injured patients developed high fevers, which was the body's way of fighting against the source of infection in the body.

In the evening, as the sky gradually darkened, Mingyi handed the person over to Shen Jinghuai and took Chunmei home.

Shen Jinghuai sent them out of the camp and returned to the tent. Seeing that the faces of the soldiers were not as pale as at the beginning, he grinned happily; with Madam Cheng around, many seriously injured soldiers could get good treatment and they would not have to die.

Seeing the twenty-five people on the beds, he saw hope for the survival of the seriously injured soldiers.

Shen Jinghuai was in a daze. Three soldiers came to the outside of the tent at some point and looked inside cautiously.

I didn't notice them at first, but since I'm a martial artist, I naturally discovered them when I came to my senses.

"Why are there three military doctors here?"

"General Shen, we are here to see the wounded. I wonder how they are doing?" They only saw that the complexion of the twenty-five people looked better when they were carried out, and they didn't know how they were doing now.

The three of them glanced into the tent repeatedly with concerned eyes.

"They look much better. That Master Cheng is a very good doctor. She re-treated and sutured the wounds of the seriously injured soldiers that you sutured. They are now fever-free and their complexions have improved. Their lives should be saved."

"It's good as long as it's saved. It's good as long as it's saved."

The three military doctors looked relieved, but at the same time, they couldn't help feeling a little upset.
