Zhao Qinghe's first reaction when he heard the news was that Chang Tingzhao would not be avenging himself. Chang Tingzhao complained in front of him before. The horse fainted.This idea was denied by Zhao Qinghe in a split second. No matter how infatuated Chang Tingzhao was, he would not be so unreliable.

Hearing those words, Chang Tingzhao still admired General Lu very much. No matter how powerful the Xirong was, Dayou had never been weak. If some officials hadn't been greedy for life and afraid of death and refused to resist, they would have retreated, and they wouldn't have been crushed all the way to the Acropolis.And General Lu is a real man, he led all the generals to fight bloody battles, with few enemies and many enemies, he was not afraid, let alone flinched, so he was able to defend until now, otherwise the fortress would have been breached and the defense city would have been lost.

But the time the two spent together was too short, where they would write heavily on other people, it was just an understatement, and then seized the time to express their feelings.So Zhao Qinghe really didn't understand why Chang Tingzhao would attack General Lu.General Lu is the leader of the fort no matter what. Although more than half of the officers and soldiers of the fortress have been lost, their strength should not be underestimated.Without the cooperation of local generals, it will not be easy to win this battle.If something happened, General Lu must be punished at this time. Wouldn't it make the local soldiers feel cold?

Zhao Qinghe couldn't help asking curiously: "What's going on?"

Lu Ke had already inquired clearly, and then he said, "It was related to the previous battle. Didn't General Lu get seriously injured because of a child? Originally, General Lu should only go secretly to find out the news, and should not go out to startle the snake. However, General Lu saw that Xirong was rampant and wanted to harm the local people, so he rode his horse and rescued the child directly regardless of the army's order, which shocked the people of Xirong. Originally, General Chang wanted to find an opportunity to catch them all, because General Lu's impulsiveness ruined his plan. We had to attack ahead of time. But it also made the battle not as beautiful as planned, causing many soldiers from the West to escape. I heard that General Chang originally wanted to use this battle to boost morale, but because Lu The general couldn't hold it back for a while, so he messed up."

Now everyone doesn't know what to say. This is a paradox. Obey the military order and you can only watch the child and his family live and die. If you don't obey the military order, you will be severely punished.Now we can't catch them all in one go, and now we are saving the child and his family, but it may also cause more people to be persecuted.And not being able to get off to a good start, not being able to use this to boost morale is really a big loss.

But as a general who loves the people like his son, how many people can bear to not attack while watching the common people die in front of him.

Several people are military doctors, and they understand the truth of this.They all sighed, not knowing whether to say this was right or wrong.If the child was his own flesh and blood, if he knew that he could be rescued, but was delayed for one reason or another, his heart would be filled with resentment.But military orders are like mountains, as a soldier, you must obey them to take care of the overall situation.If everyone disobeyed military orders because of one thing or another, how would this army lead.

After being silent for a while, Zhou Lu sighed, "If you're just going to be a guard, it's fine."

Lu Ke shook his head and said, "If it was that simple, I wouldn't have rushed over to tell you these things in such a hurry."

Everyone couldn't help being startled, Zhao Qinghe was puzzled, "What else was punished?"

Lu Ke sighed: "According to military law, it is a great offense to disobey military orders and act without authorization. He needs to be dismissed from his post and beaten thirty times."

Several people couldn't help but gasped. Zhong Zibo, who had treated General Lu before and admired this man, couldn't help asking anxiously: "Then what do you want to do now?"

Originally, General Lu was not clearly injured, and if the thirty army sticks were beaten, half of his life might be lost.The military stick is much more punishing than the usual stick. If the body is a little weak, it will kill people after thirty battles.

"General Chang said that Nian is the first offender, and at this time the enemy is at hand, so write it down first, and give General Lu a chance to make meritorious deeds. After the war is over, he will punish and reward. However, the impact of this matter is bad and must be punished, so he dispatched Lu The general should be a guard, so as to serve as an example to others."

Lu Shuangyuan nodded, "It's appropriate to act like this, but it's not that simple, is it?"

Lu Ke pouted and said displeasedly: "You really guessed it right. General Chang's actions are considered fair, but the officers and soldiers in this fortress didn't understand. Seeing that General Lu was punished, he was not happy. Now they are all guarding with General Lu. This General Lu was willing to accept the punishment, knowing that he had made a mistake. But for some reason, now there are complaints. He did not stop those soldiers from doing what they did. .”

Zhao Qinghe couldn't help frowning. Although these officers and soldiers couldn't make any troubles, it was really inappropriate to have internal disturbances before the battle, which shook the soldiers' morale.Moreover, there is a Supervisor He in the army. If this matter is reported by him, I don't know what it will be called.

Seeing Lu Ke looking away from him, Zhao Qinghe's heart sank, "Is there any rumor in the army?"

Lu Ke lowered his head and looked embarrassed, and the others seemed to have a premonition, and they all frowned.Zhao Qinghe took a deep breath, "But about me?"

Lu Ke glanced at him, knowing that he couldn't hide it, nodded and replied with difficulty: "There are rumors in the army that the reason why General Chang is attacking General Lu at this time is because he wants to avenge you."

Zhao Qinghe knew that it would be difficult to hide the closeness between the two of them, and that Supervisor He might have found out something before he came, so it was not just because of the medicinal herb that they made things so difficult along the way.

Zhao Qinghe couldn't help laughing, and said in a cold tone: "General Lu is not happy about this?"

If General Lu is such a brainless person, then Zhao Qinghe really has nothing to say, such a person should be punished now.Otherwise, they are opponents like pigs, and they will add to the chaos in the future.

Luke scratched his head in embarrassment, "It seems to be yes and it seems not to be. In short, it should not be that simple."

Zhao Qinghe snorted coldly. Although he had infinite contempt for General Lu in his heart, wishing to smash his head, he could only bear it in this extraordinary period.

"Come on, let's meet this General Lu."

Several apprentices couldn't help staring wide-eyed, is this to challenge?

Zhou Lu hurriedly stopped, "Master, these are just rumors. If you clarify them, you may not only fail to explain clearly, but will cause a commotion."

Zhao Qinghe glanced at him, "Do you think your master is as brainless as that General Lu? Go and bring that chasing wind here, Yuanzhi, and help me get the medicine box. Lu Ke, go find Doctor Lu and tell him the truth. thing."

In the past few days, Dr. Lu spent almost all his food and lodging in the stable, and he didn't dislike the smell.

Several people peeped at each other, not knowing what Zhao Qinghe wanted to do, but they all obediently followed suit.

Zhao Qinghe led Zhuifeng through the barracks, although he had heard that he would save Zhuifeng before, but now the soldiers were amazed when they saw it with their own eyes.

But some people whispered: "Look, isn't this the general's horse? This doctor Zhao really has a hand."

"Fart, the general's chasing wind was originally a skin trauma, Doctor Lu has already cured it, let this doctor in the capital take advantage of it."

"No, I heard that Dr. Lu himself said that this horse cannot be cured by him. Thanks to Dr. Zhao's magical skills, otherwise this horse would definitely die."

Another person sneered, "Doctor Lu is old, and he wanted to go home and enjoy life for a long time, but now he just wants to curry favor with this doctor from the capital. It is said that this person is a doctor of veterinary medicine, who has an affair with something, and wants to marry a Bringing it back to the capital is as easy as swat a fly..."

The two spoke in a loud voice, Zhou Lu and the others could hear clearly, and they were filled with resentment.On the other hand, the person involved, Zhao Qinghe, had a calm expression on his face, not knowing what was going on in his mind, which made several people feel indifferent again.I have never seen any storms around Zhao Qinghe, this slander is nothing, thinking about it like this, the few apprentices all look fearless.

When Zhao Qinghe came to the place where General Lu was guarding, the scene was quite spectacular, many officers and soldiers followed General Lu to guard there.Do not make noise, silently use your own actions to protest such punishment.

These people are smart, so if Chang Tingzhao gets angry, they can say they just want to stand here, and you can't do anything about it.Now that there is no battle, some soldiers are resting. Who can control them standing here voluntarily.But this shows an attitude of dissatisfaction that you cannot ignore.

Zhao Qinghe led the chasing wind to find an open place, not far from General Lu, within his field of vision, and other soldiers could see it clearly.When he saw that Zhuifeng was safe and sound, he didn't look strange, as if the horse should be healed.

Zhao Qinghe didn't look at them, but ordered: "Zhou Lu, Shuangyuan, Baoding this horse, lie on your side."

Zhou Lu and Lu Shuangyuan didn't know why, but they acted swiftly.

After securing the horse, Zhao Qinghe removed the cloth strips surrounding the horse's abdomen, and suddenly an ugly scar was exposed, causing the soldiers present to gasp.Who said the injury was not serious!So big mouth.

Lu Yun's originally serious face finally loosened, and he couldn't help looking this way.

Zhao Qinghe put on his hat, gloves and mask, and said to Zhong Zibo: "What is tetanus? What is infection?"

Zhong Zibo paused for a moment, then understood immediately, and couldn't help explaining.The voice is crisp and loud, and the words are simple and easy to understand.Originally, a group of soldiers didn't know what these people were doing, but after listening to it, they tasted something.Doesn't this tell them that if they are unclean, the wounds will worsen?Why tell them this?I heard that the people in the Chang Family Army have heard of these things, and now they are teaching them?I'm afraid it's not that simple.

Zhao Qinghe didn't pay attention to other things, but took out tools from the medicine box and removed the stitches for the horse.Although they are all men who have been on the battlefield, who has never been injured or seen blood, but at this time, watching Zhao Qinghe remove the wound line of the horse bit by bit, he can't help but feel his scalp numb, as if It's like slowly sharpening a knife on yourself.

As soon as Zhao Qinghe removed the stitches from the wound, Doctor Lu rushed over. Seeing that it was over, he couldn't help but slapped his thigh and said, "Oh, it's still a step late."

Zhao Qinghe took the mask away, "It's okay, there will be another chance next time. And the thread can be absorbed in most cases, so it doesn't have to be removed."

Doctor Lu was still full of regrets. When he looked up and saw a group of soldiers who were punished by General Lu, he could not help but curse, "If you are too busy, let me clean the stables! I am so busy that I can't find anyone, so it's good for you to take a break here!" "

One of the soldiers curled his lips, "They are just animals, how can they be so particular about them, they didn't come here like this before. Now it takes so much effort to toss, it's cleaning and fumigation, I'm afraid I don't know who is fattening fanny pack."

Dr. Lu kicked it directly, "You fucking know shit! Without these military horses, you have a fucking fight, and the Western soldiers ran over and hacked you, and they ran away before your head fell to the ground. .”

The soldier hurriedly dodged, "I didn't say that this horse is not important, but I can't be so fussy. Isn't it about being poor? It's not that the money is too much to burn. We almost starved to death here before, and now we have some food and grass." It can't be wasted like that."

Dr. Lu spat at him, "You said you were stupid and you still didn't admit it. That was before, but now that you have enough food and grass, you have to deliberately starve yourself? Okay, then you don't have to eat with the big guys that night, you eat chaff by yourself Let's go eat."

The soldier almost cried, "Doctor Lu, I have no grudge against you, why are you targeting me?"

Doctor Lu snorted coldly, "Isn't it because all of you are so idle, what are you doing? Don't you seem like a man who doesn't have a mouth to ask when you can't figure it out? Isn't I here? You can't believe it?"

Dr. Lu looked at each of them without saying a word, and walked up to Lu Yun, "General Lu, tell me, do you not understand this matter?"

Lu Yun didn't speak, just stood there like a statue.

Dr. Lu shook his head and sighed, "Well, you are a general now, my distant uncle is just a veterinarian, how can I question you..."

Lu Yun was helpless, "Cousin, nephew is still on guard."

Dr. Lu squinted his eyes, "Okay, you can't talk, you can always see with your eyes and listen with your ears. Since you don't understand, I will let you understand today."

Doctor Lu clapped his hands, and after a while, two soldiers came over with a shelf covered with white cloth.Doctor Lu opened it and saw that it was a dead horse.

In this fortress, horses are very important. On weekdays, the soldiers treat these military horses as if they were their own wives. It is inevitable that they cannot bear to see the horses die.

Doctor Lu said loudly: "This horse didn't die in battle, but died of illness. Do you know why?"

Some soldiers couldn't help muttering, "We're not veterinarians, how do we know?"

Doctor Lu ignored those people, walked straight to the dead horse, and pointed to the rotten skin on the horse's body.

"This dead horse has mange, also known as mite disease. To put it simply, it was tickled to death because of the bugs growing on its body. There is already more than one dead horse. The general should be familiar with it, right?"

General Lu's facial expression finally showed a strange look, how could he not know that the general was.For some reason, the disease was always incurable, and it recurred after a few days, causing the horses to become red, swollen, blistered, and extremely itchy. In severe cases, they would lose their appetite, become thinner, and even die.

In most cases, this disease is not very serious, but sporadic horses die from this disease every year. Military horses are precious, and the death of a horse is a big loss.The most frustrating thing is that the root cannot be cut off, even if it does not die, the horse will itch all over, how can it fight a good battle.

Doctor Lu continued: "Now there is a solution, not only mange, but also worm disease, leprosy disease, etc. can be prevented or even eradicated."

General Lu couldn't keep calm anymore, "How to deal with it?"

Doctor Lu laughed, "Can you talk now?"

General Lu was quite ashamed, but asked without hesitation, "Is what my cousin said true?"

Doctor Lu didn't have time to tease him here, "Although I'm not good at medicine, when did I tell a lie? It's all thanks to Doctor Zhao from the capital. Prevention is better than cure for these diseases. The only way to prevent them from getting infected is to treat them from the root causes." Pull out all possible avenues of disease. These diseases are contagious, meaning that a sick horse with these bugs can transfer them to a healthy horse through everything they share, such as saddles, mangers, bedding, etc. .So we cured it, and then it relapsed and never got better. Dr. Zhao directly killed all the bugs, not only on the horse, but also in all places in the stable, so that the disease can be truly eliminated. Relapse again."

General Lu couldn't help looking at Zhao Qinghe, who had been silent and teasing Zhuifeng, his ears turned red and he felt ashamed.

"Cousin, it's my fault."

Dr. Lu sighed: "Son, the roads are like a mountain. What you can't understand doesn't mean it's really useless. Now that there is enough food and grass, a little bit of investment will definitely pay off to keep those horses from getting sick. Such a toss Not only are these bugs prevented, but also the plague and so on. If the horses get the disease, even people may suffer. Do you think the money for rectifying the stables is worth it? Are you fooling around?"

General Lu lowered his head in shame, and Doctor Lu patted him on the shoulder, "You made a mistake in the first place, and now you have added another crime to your crime. Even though I am your cousin, I can't excuse you. After you stand guard Go and receive the punishment, lest you be punished more severely. In the future, don’t be so impulsive and confused and be led by the nose. You can make excuses for impulsively disregarding your military life to save the people, but there is no room for interrogation in this matter. gone."

General Lu nodded, looked at Zhao Qinghe and nodded guiltily, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Why are you still standing here! Why don't you hurry up and help Dr. Zhao!"

Immediately, all the soldiers who were punished to stand together dispersed, and it was not long before the crowded place was empty.

Dr. Lu shook his head and sighed, walked towards Zhao Qinghe and cupped his hands and said, "My nephew didn't mean to target you, but he's just too poor and has no brains, please don't take it to heart, Dr. Zhao. When he comes down, let him personally apologize for you .”

Zhao Qinghe said with a smile: "Doctor Lu is joking, these soldiers are just feeling the consequences of disobedience to the military order with the general, what have I to do with it?"

In this way, it was an understatement to brush off the matter, and Dr. Lu's high-hanging heart finally fell.The rumors in the army were not groundless. Zhao Qinghe was just a veterinarian. After he fainted, General Chang hurried over to check on him, which made people wonder.Now that the rumors start to spread, everyone is not blind, and they can guess one or two points.

Although no one said much about this matter, it was still a slap in the face of Zhao Qinghe.If Zhao Qinghe didn't care, then Chang Tingzhao would at least deal with it fairly, and that was enough.

"Uncle Guo, those soldiers have only been standing for a while, and then they are working as coolies for that damned Zhao Qinghe!" never mind.

Supervisor He sipped his tea leisurely, and said with a smile, "As long as the quarrel is over, I'd say it's as long as they quarrel, and it doesn't matter how severe the quarrel is."

The servant also laughed along with him, and responded again and again: "Uncle Guo said yes, but he couldn't eradicate Zhao Qinghe. It's a pity."

He Jianjun kicked the servant directly, "You are stupid, Zhao Qinghe has some skills no matter what, and people like him are needed at this juncture. This cavalry is very important, and his life must be saved."

The servant curled his lips, "It's just a brat, and other people can take his place."

He Jianjun didn't even look at him, "You think I'm the one with shit in my head. Now, I can't make any mistakes, otherwise I won't be fat on Xirong's chopping board! A small punishment is a pleasure, a big punishment Don't worry about it for a while, just let them enjoy themselves for a few days."

Violence flashed across He Jianjun's eyes, and the panda's eyes became darker and darker.

"General Chang." Zhao Qinghe walked into the camp, bowing his hands in a courteous bow.

Seeing him like this, Chang Tingzhao couldn't help but sighed, but there was nothing he could do.Today Duke Ding has asked him to beat him, he must act cautiously before the battle, so that nothing goes wrong.The relationship between the two can't be made public now, and it's really not easy to get too close.Chang Tingzhao didn't want Zhao Qinghe to be disturbed by these rumors, so he could only restrain himself at ordinary times.

"Has the stable been tidied up?" The table blocked the two of them, but they were holding hands underneath. They could be seen outside, so they could only be so careful.

Zhao Qinghe said: "With the help of local officers and soldiers, the speed is much faster. The medical station and operating room have also been built, and they are guarded by special personnel. Everything is ready."

Chang Tingzhao nodded, "That's good, there will be fierce battles to be fought soon, you must remember to rest, otherwise you will not be able to survive at that time. Don't fall ill again, I can't help but want to send you away. go back."

Zhao Qinghe nodded with a smile, and said in a low voice: "This Supervisor He is too in the way here, I'm afraid that what happened in the past few days will be made a big fuss by him."

Chang Tingzhao licked his lips slightly, his face was full of sarcasm, "It's just a clown, don't be afraid."

Zhao Qinghe couldn't help frowning, "You can't underestimate the enemy like this, sometimes those few words can kill people. One or two is nothing, the emperor will be unhappy if there are too many."

Chang Tingzhao squeezed his hand, "With my father around, he will not be allowed to go wild. Although it is difficult for my father to go to the battlefield in person, it does not mean that his mind is confused. I have met this kind of villain a lot. Go, I have my own way to deal with it. By the way, there is a saying that if you don’t die, you won’t die. If he doesn’t jump around, how can he catch it.”

Hearing this, Zhao Qinghe felt a little relieved, "A person like him who likes to enjoy life didn't even enter the Acropolis. If he gets out, he will save some trouble. Otherwise, when it comes time to fight, such a person will disturb the morale of the army. Lord."

Chang Tingzhao smiled brighter, "Don't worry, he won't be able to hold on for long."

Zhao Qinghe didn't understand what it meant at first, but he saw it after a few days.
