From Chief to Ball

Generally speaking, this was a hearty victory, which allowed Chen Jian to build up his confidence in the field battle, and made the era of vigorous efforts declared old just after its birth.

The field forces in several cities near Sucheng were wiped out, which can be regarded as bloodshed, and the sacrifices were cut off.

So far, in the vicinity of Sucheng, there is no field force that can resist the Xia army, and the victory of self-inflicted eight hundred and annihilating the enemy has given the Xia army a touch of mythology.

The chariot has just been born for more than ten years, and it is already old; the infantry, which was originally regarded as cannon fodder, used seven years of training to tell the world that infantry can also dominate the battlefield; It announced the opening of the defensive counterattack tactics in the matchlock era, and also exposed the weakness of matchlocks that are more than enough to defend but not enough to attack.

It seems that Xia Jun is the first to attack, but in fact it is still a defensive counterattack. If Su Yue bears it again, Chen Jian will order the whole line to turn to defense, deploy the artillery, mobilize the black guards and Habayashi guards to move to Right wing, relying on one's own mobility to attack from the right wing.

Even if they can win in that way, the result will never be so huge. It will only be a tragic defeat, and a large number of Awatake troops on the left will flee.

These battlefield summaries will be written into booklets, which will be used as teaching materials for military classes in the future, so that those people can learn to talk on paper first, and then slowly practice.

After thousands of people on the battlefield cheered, they began to treat their own wounded.The various logistical troops and students of the medical class left behind in the rear also arrived on the battlefield after the messengers sent orders.

There were a lot of casualties, but the slightly formed regulations on battlefield rescue and treatment of wounded soldiers could save many lives.

Those soldiers who were seriously injured and bleeding were carried to the rear, and the wooden signs with A, B, C, D were taken out from their necks, and three or five of the company's people with the same blood type came out.

Blood type seems magical and post-modern, but it can be used in this era.Excluding some rare blood types and the violent reactions caused by blood transfusion of immediate family members, simple agglutination reactions can be observed with simple glassware and the naked eye.

Since Chen Jian started firing glass ten years ago, he didn't use it on doors and windows first, but made some utensils with excellence, at least they can be used.

Four years ago, relying on one-by-one testing, the blood type cards of all the people in the army were finally completed. It was nothing more than setting one person directly as A, and then starting from him to find out the second person who had a cohesive reaction with his blood. Set it as B, and find out the next one little by little.

In short, it can be used to make do with it, and there is also the disadvantage of inaccurate observation with the naked eye, but one out of twenty can see it wrong, and the whole is still a huge improvement compared to before.

Use a sharpened goose quill to sterilize and directly puncture the vein of the blood transfusion recipient, and strictly control the amount of blood transfusion, which can save some lives that should have died in this era due to excessive blood loss.

Simple methods such as steaming and disinfection of yin and yang nonsense, high-level steaming and disinfection can also prevent the occurrence of ulcers. Some herbal medicines circulated in various clans are also the main means of treatment in this era.

Most of Xia's soldiers were wounded by arrows. Those who were stabbed or hit by blunt objects basically died. There were no buckshot muskets on the opposite side. As long as the arrow wounds did not hit the vital parts, they could still be saved.

The officials of the Department of Medicine set up simple tents in the camp behind the battlefield, sprinkled lime, set up a bonfire to cook the bandages, and applied all kinds of weird herbal medicines using the bandaging techniques they learned in the Department of Medicine.

The death rate of wounded soldiers was more than [-]% before the emergence of the formal wounded soldier treatment system, and a little more formal, even if they only know how to sterilize and cook, can also improve a lot: Compared with throwing wounded soldiers on the ground, more than a dozen people Squatting in a dirty and smelly hut, watching the wounds fester and maggots expose the bones, this is a kind of progress.

If you can't do it perfectly, don't do it, it will never be done.

It was also after the successful attempt of blood transfusion in Xia Kingdom that many people in the medical class completely destroyed the idea of ​​the sanctity of blood, because there is nothing more intuitive than blood transfusion and can explain what blood is.

This is the same as the origin of the trend of thought that appeared in Xia Guoxue Palace a few years ago: because of the pea planting incident and the emergence of simple breeding, the theory of bloodlines has been rampant for a while, and the two sides have also launched a fierce debate, and finally used a compromise The method: Yang is the body and Yin is the soul, blood only determines the body, not the soul.

It's just that it's only temporarily suppressed, and this kind of quarrel is still not over. For example, some people learn things quickly and some people learn things slowly, but Jixia said that the soul is born with the same blank, so the soul and the body Is there any connection?Is it the complete opposite?Or are they connected to each other?

These are not science, even pseudoscience, but from this kind of dispute, the new generation of Xia Guo, who has received a complete enlightenment education and entered a higher school, began to think, and even Chen Jian deliberately proposed a few obvious Make mistakes, let the other party refute, guide the people's thinking, and lose the possibility of becoming an almighty god or the son of god.

The victory on the battlefield is certainly worth gratifying, and the treatment after the battlefield made Chen Jian even more excited. Now that Chen Jian has destroyed Suyue, this Xia people's ideology of pursuing knowledge will completely replace those witch doctors and priests and become a new way of thinking the way of the world.

If the battle is defeated, all the germs of the Xia Kingdom will be destroyed, especially the blood transfusion treatment, which can threaten the sanctity of the blood, will be destroyed without even the dregs left.

That's why Chen Jian didn't linger on the battlefield, enjoying the joy that a winner should have or the voice of being called out for victory.

Instead, he took a few guards and messengers and rode to the rear camp. With his back to the sun, he looked at everything in the camp with a smile and foolishly for a long time.

The surrounding guards didn't understand what Chen Jian was looking at. They were used to things like treating wounded soldiers and women bandaging and applying medicine, and even took it for granted.

What Chen Jian laughed at was this kind of taking for granted, and only this taking for granted.It is a matter of course that people are born inferior, and it is a matter of course if you talk too much.It is only natural that the wounded soldiers would love to die there, after a long time, it is only a matter of course.

It is the many things that are taken for granted that are the most terrifying and terrifying, full of the darkest and bloodiest.

After watching the busyness familiar to Xia Guo people for a long time under the warmth of the sun, Chen Jian jumped off his horse, reached out to pick a few delicate flowers on the ground, wove a wreath with straw rope, came to the camp gate, and stretched out his hand The garland hung from a freshly cut willow branch.

Everyone was puzzled and didn't ask any more questions, so Chen Jian didn't say anything more, and rode his horse around silently, leading the people away.

In the evening, those who chased the defeated soldiers had all returned, and several backbones of the army surrounded Chen Jian, listening to the results reported by the people who counted the battlefield.

"Ji Xia, what about the 5000 prisoners? Send them back to Yucheng?"

"Did the Dongyi people in it be picked out?"

"Picked out."

"I'll ask the rest. You continue to arrange night watch and so on. Let the orderly come over."

A few messengers rushed over and took out a piece of paper and a piece of charcoal from their pockets for memory.

"Immediately go back to Yucheng, and declare that the battle against Suyue has won a complete victory. All the men in Yucheng, three of them will draw a spear or a simple fire door gun, carry their own food, and march along the river. Send people along Hebei to spread the news of the great victory, and bring Suyue's head with them, so as not to disbelieve them."

"The carrier pigeon sent a message, telling Xia County to win the victory here, and mobilize all the deputy officials and intern officials, and come to Yucheng by boat within a month. Then let those who are on the list set in advance come over and prepare to take over these towns."

"Let Sihuoji write something again, tell Weihe Eyue, don't be in a hurry to fight south, and defend the Caohe area. When the news of Suyue's beheading spreads, the cities of all the tribes in Dahe will retreat. Once they retreat, they must prepare to head east. Let them send out scouts and pick out some Beidi people who are familiar with the terrain and climate from the captured Beidi people."

"Well... it is said that when the tribes of the Caohe River headed east from Echeng, I went east along the Dahe River, sandwiching Dongyi from the south to the north. It is best if you can win quickly. defend themselves or migrate to the tribes of the great river."

"From Echeng to the East China Sea, from Sucheng to the end of the river, if the two lines are clamped, even if they can't be completely destroyed, there will be no Dongyi in hundreds of years, unless they grow wings and scales to cross the sea."

The messenger repeated it, and Chen Jian drew a sketch on the paper again, so as not to misunderstand.

1 Chapter [-] Differentiation

The messenger left overnight, and Chen Jian came among the group of prisoners who had been identified as his relatives.

More than 4000 people looked at Chen Jian in horror, and there were some acquaintances among them. Even if they were not acquaintances, no one would not recognize Chen Jian, and called Ji Xia rather awkwardly.

Under the protection of his personal guards, Chen Jian called a prisoner at random and asked, "Why are you beating us?"

The prisoner shook his head and said, "The leader told us to fight, so we have to fight, otherwise what else can we do? Jixia, you want to kill us all, right? We are all relatives. Can Jixia save us from Dongyi?" Going back to tens of thousands of relatives, probably won’t kill us.”

Chen Jian laughed and said, "If you say that, it must not be the family that your leader Su Yue is close to. Otherwise, you should hate me. Your surname is Su?"

"Ah."

"What do you usually do?"

"Farming. I live in Sucheng and help my relatives to cultivate land and public land. In recent years, they have iron tools to cultivate cattle, but we don't have any, so we use their farm tools to cultivate cattle. We must first plant public land, and then plant relatives. Expensive land, the last to grow our own. When we fight, we will fight, and if we fight well, the leader said that he can distribute some cattle, iron tools and land.”

The prisoner said a few words, then sighed: "Actually, the oxen and iron ridges are very good. This is Jixia's great contribution. But before these things, the leader still needs to ask us a lot of things. Since we have these It's not good."

"It turns out that in wars, we have to go with us. Now? Some people have farm cattle and iron slaves. They practice all the year round. During the war, they are the main force in the decisive victory. We just need to follow with spears. Originally, everyone was one People with the surname are now gradually alienated. I think, if it was the time when the mountain was set on fire to plant, most of the leaders would have asked our clansmen before the war with the Xia Kingdom. Now just tell us, as long as those who have Those who have cattle, iron, land, and slaves can just agree."

Chen Jian clicked his tongue and asked back, "You don't like Niu Tielong?"

"I like it. But it's not mine. Before there were no such things, at least the leader would ask us about anything, but now there is no need to ask. I followed the expedition. It was the leader's request and I also hoped to make some meritorious deeds. some rewards."

"Actually, we don't like to go out to fight. If we win, the slaves can't get it. It's the time for planting and harvesting. When we leave home, no one will plant the land; while those who have slaves will rely on slaves to plant. The more we fight , the poorer we are, the richer are the slaves."

"Actually, I've also heard about what Jixia did in Xia Kingdom. In fact, I'm not against having slaves, but I'm against not being able to get them. Since I can't get them, it doesn't matter if I have slaves or not. Either fight in the future, Only those who have slaves are allowed to go, and those of us without slaves are not allowed to go; but we are allowed to fight, but we are not given slaves. After fighting back and forth, those of us without slaves will owe a lot of money and food, and the leaders will not Will have his slaves till us while we fight."
