My younger brother Lü Fengxian

Chapter 120 Three Divine Doctors at the End of the Han Dynasty

Therefore, Gao Shun took the initiative to attack and caught up with this group of wandering horse bandits who had fled to the sphere of influence of the four alliances. At the cost of twenty casualties, he wiped them all out.

No lives were wasted, all were contributed to Huang Yi of Mayi Great Wall, allowing him to accumulate some small merit.

As a result, Lu Bu was successfully promoted from a small soldier to a garrison commander.

Who doesn't know the relationship between Lü Bu and the Lü Yi caravan? Everyone gets to share in the military merits brought by the big brother, and no one complains when Lü Bu takes the lion's share. Instead, they feel that they are taking advantage of Lü Bu.

The improvement of Lu Bu's status finally allowed him to gain a foothold under Huang Yi and gain command of a hundred troops.

Lu Yi did not interfere with Lu Bu's growth and let him develop freely. After all, he was a warlord in history and a figure who almost wiped out Cao Cao and Liu Bei. How could he impress his subordinates without some skills and talent?
This time, the caravan brought back more than 800 healthy horses from the trade with the Hunye tribe, which was a great success, but the caravan also suffered huge losses.

Most of the thirty or so injured have died, and the remaining people who followed Shangdu back are also in very bad condition. Almost everyone has a high fever. It is obvious that their wounds have not been well cared for and have become seriously infected.

Therefore, Lu Yi did not pay any attention to the horses, but asked Zhang to hire doctors as soon as possible to treat the wounded and properly arrange for the dead to be buried when he returned to Jiuyuan Pavilion.

However, the medical level of the Han Dynasty was naturally not comparable to that of Lu Yi's previous life, and it was more focused on internal medicine. It was difficult to provide targeted treatment for injuries caused by cold weapons, and Lu Yi had no medical knowledge and could only watch helplessly.

At most, I can contribute some basic common sense.

For example, boiling water disinfection, needle and thread suturing wounds, etc.

As for more, he had no idea what to do.

"Alas... In the era of cold weapons, casualties on the battlefield were not the biggest. Instead, more people died during the post-battle medical treatment due to inability to heal wounds, excessive bleeding, and infection."

"This created a situation where even the victorious side could only watch their wounded die in agony one by one, suffering heavy injuries."

"It's really like hurting the enemy by a thousand while hurting yourself by eight hundred!"

After inspecting the wounded soldiers, Lu Yi couldn't help but sigh.

"It seems that the formation of a specialized and professional medical team must be put on the agenda as soon as possible! However, the leading doctors are a scarce resource, and I really have no idea!"

"Well...there were only three people who could be called famous doctors during the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period!"

"The Medical Immortal Dong Feng, the Medical Saint Zhang Zhongjing, and the Divine Doctor Hua Tuo."

"These three people are collectively known as the Three Divine Doctors of Jian'an."

"But Dong Feng seems to have not been born yet. Although Zhang Zhongjing is about the same age as me and a kind-hearted doctor, he is from a prominent family in Nanyang. I was selected as a filial and honest official and the Nanyang Zhang family has high hopes for me. It is unlikely that I can recruit him at this moment."

"The genius doctor Hua Tuo is now over 30 years old. He is very suitable in terms of age and experience. Moreover, he comes from a poor family. He is good at both internal and external medicine, especially surgery. He has treated Chen Deng, Zhou Tai, Guan Yu, Cao Cao and others. He cured all diseases with medicine and brought them back to health. He is really a perfect candidate."

"However, Hua Tuo has always been indifferent to fame and fortune. He has been practicing medicine all his life and has come and gone without a trace. I am afraid it will be difficult to find him. Even if I find him, he may not be able to join my army smoothly."

"At that time, Cao Cao was already the King of Wei. He tried to keep Hua Tuo but failed, so he got angry and executed him. This is enough to show his pride. I'm afraid we can't use force against him."

Lu Yi thought about it and immediately made up his mind.

"No matter how difficult it is, it can't stop me from conquering this person!"

"Others don't know the effect of Hua Tuo, but I do!"

“If we can gain his loyalty and train a team of professional military doctors to accompany the army, their impact can be equal to that of tens of thousands of troops!” After figuring this out, Lu Yi immediately ordered Gao Shun to take valuable gifts and go to Pei State to find Hua Tuo. Even if he could not recruit him back, he would at least make friends with him to lay the groundwork for subsequent recruitment.

Hua Tuo's name as a miracle doctor was widely known and praised in modern times. Lu Yi was not afraid of not being able to find Hua Tuo's home, but was worried that Hua Tuo was traveling outside to practice medicine and Gao Shun would be disappointed.

However, this was not something Lu Yi could control. He could only do his best and leave the rest to fate.

After the caravan returned, the men and horses rested but the caravan did not.

Zhang, who had already accumulated a lot of wealth, followed Lu Yi's example and formed a second caravan with rickshaw drivers and horses.

Moreover, after a month of preparation, the second batch of 3 million goods and more than 1,000 stones of grain had been prepared.

After only one day of handover, Cheng Lian of Tong Yi led the new coachmen and accountants and set out on the road of business again.

The replaced Jiatong and the first batch of chariot drivers and horses were all well repaired.

After the rest, the guys got a half-month holiday to go home and visit their families, and for the remaining half-month they needed to return to Jiuyuan Pavilion for training.

The coachman and the horses were also well arranged by Zhang.

Lu Yi watched the whole process and did not intervene.

However, the handover work was still carried out in an orderly and step-by-step manner.

His energy is limited, and in the future he will definitely have to focus most of his energy on building his power. It is impossible for him to keep an eye on a mere caravan.

The reason why he gave Zhang 30% of the profits was that he intended to let the professional Zhang be responsible for the business direction in the future, and he would only need to send his men to escort the team.

After the caravan escorted by Cheng Lian set off, Lu Yi did not go to see Zhang Wan'er first, but found his brother-in-law Zhang Liao and his servant Zhang He.

The two men are of similar age, have similar personalities, and get along very well.

Zhang Liao did not look down on Zhang He because of his status. Instead, he spoke highly of his intelligence and will.

Zhang He was also very polite to Zhang Liao because he was his lord's brother-in-law.

The two studied together and made academic progress.

Especially Zhang He.

He was determined to learn the skills as soon as possible to repay Lu Yi, so he studied day and night without sleep, and beat Zhang Liao hard, forcing him to study harder.

Therefore, when the two saw Lu Yi coming, they simply greeted him and returned to their desks to continue studying hard, showing a fierceness that was similar to that of a high school student in some universe in Lu Yi's previous life.

"Hey, you two little guys are going a little too far, aren't you?" Seeing this scene, Lu Yi's forehead was covered with sweat, and he quickly intervened and persuaded them, "Although learning never ends, combining work and rest is the right way!"

Lu Yi didn't want the two best generals he had finally obtained to age prematurely because they worked too hard when they were young.

In addition to a general's command and experience, luck and longevity are also very important factors.

Sima Yi’s example tells us that as long as you outlast all your competitors, you can win without any effort.

Otherwise, even a genius like Zhuge Liang would find it difficult to achieve great things if he died too early!
