Practicing Medicine in Three Kingdoms

The scorching sun is thousands of miles away, and the waves are shining.

Along the winding south bank of the Yangtze River, fighters lined up in rows.

Despite the sweltering heat, the Shu army along the river is still endless. The iron clothes are rolled with gold dust, coiled like the scales on a giant dragon, reflecting a biting and murderous light in the red-gold morning sun.

These [-] elite soldiers are the elite divisions of the land and water divisions of the Shuhan Kingdom. In order to maximize their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, most of the army was used in this conquest, but there were also a small half of the navy that accompanied the river.

During the half-year-long confrontation, most of the navy had dropped anchor and landed, leaving only a dozen light boats to go back and forth between Wu Gorge and Yiling to convey military information and replenish exhaustion.

The battle line of [-] miles, backed by the mountains on the side of the gorge, along the banks of the river, was intermittently spread out in a formation of dozens of tents connected in series.

"Sir, it's time for dinner."

In the center of the first battalion on the front line, the young soldier stood on the hot gravel, while picking up the worn-out armor on his chest and fanning his neck, he pushed the food plate in, blinking his sweat-smeared eyelashes vigorously, revealing his bright eyes. Net dark eyeballs.

Li Yinzhou withdrew his gaze and glanced at him from the tent.

The soldier's withered brown face was blurred by the blazing and distorted light, and he looked almost familiar.

There was a bowl of clear porridge and a dish of side dishes on the plate that was pushed over, with some oily smell floating here and there.

When it was placed in the palace of the Shu Han Dynasty, this kind of food was too bland, but on the front line where supplies were scarce, a bowl of clean hot porridge was a delicacy that others would not envy.

He accepted this simple and childish kindness, and asked casually: "Is your comrade-in-arms getting better?"

The soldier's hand on his chest froze, and he coughed twice without silver 300 taels: "Who is it?"

Li Yinzhou sat down cross-legged casually, vaguely remembering this person: "Thirteen, or fourteen?"

Recently, more and more soldiers suffer from heat stroke. There are no less than a dozen soldiers who have passed through his hands. Not many can count their names, but they can give a general impression by looking at their faces.

Xiao Bing bared his teeth, and just about to answer, he caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eyes, quickly straightened his face, and pretended to snort coldly: "I'll eat you, it's better to be close."

Li Yinzhou turned his eyes and saw that the young general of the Mi family came quickly with a cold face, passed the soldier who was pretending to be aggressive, and opened the curtain with a single shot.

The cold and sharp tip of the gun brushed against the sound of the wind, and pressed against the side of the neck without saying hello.

Mi Zhaoren also walked in, and slowly pulled down the curtain with the other hand, his whole face was shrouded in shadow, and his eyes looked extraordinarily gloomy.

He twisted the gun impatiently, lowered his wrist like a threat, and said slowly: "I heard that there is Mr. Sun in the Wu tent, who used to be your student, and now she is in Yiling City, but she is helped by Governor Lu." God is busy."

Sun Shangxiang's fake death can't be concealed for a lifetime. Mrs. Sun died for no reason, and there was an extra Mr. Sun Ren. Liu Bei probably guessed it a long time ago, but he couldn't reveal the truth because of his face.

These words are no longer lures, but threats.

It seemed that as long as he didn't agree to anything, he would immediately expose this scandal to the world, just to take advantage of this time to avenge a new revenge and settle an old grievance.

Li Yinzhou looked down at the cold light flashing by on the gun, and asked very flatly: "So what?"

The three generations of Sun family generals have been criticized by the world for being cold-blooded and ruthless, so why do they care about being splashed with dirty water again?What's more, if Liu Bei failed to marry a wife, he was teased and dared to poke her out. Do you want his old face?

Moose couldn't follow the routine, and now he twitched abruptly, his whole body was under the gun, and he slowly clenched it in his hands.

After looking at Li Yinzhou indifferently and angrily for a while, he pulled the corners of his lips coolly, without any further concealment: "Hand it over."

Li Yinzhou looked at him with raised eyebrows: "What?"

"Liangxue Soup." Mi Zhao gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "She is your student, and you will teach everything she has learned. You'd better hand over the prescription immediately, otherwise... I'm not Mr. Cao Waiting for benevolent people who cherish talents."

These words vaguely reflect the old story of Ruxu retreating without a fight.

The only one who can reveal so many secrets to the Shu side is Sima Yi, who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic.

Only now did Li Yinzhou figure out the purpose of this young general Mo, he was afraid that he would have some kind of conspiracy, repeat his old tricks, and threaten Liu Bei with the lives of thousands of soldiers to retreat, so before the enemy made any movement, he would start with him The source of all evil begins.

Liu Bei played the banner of Renjun.

If you want to live a long history, you can't touch anything dirty, smelly, or unbearably dirty.Moose is the blade of his confidant, reaching farther than his hands and feet, and the edge in his palm is even more bloody.

So the discussion over there was not over yet, and the elk photo had already picked up the gun and grabbed the person.

Leng Feng reflected a pair of extremely cold eyes. The young general, carrying the success or failure of his clan, the stigma all over his body, and his ambition to win all turned into a gloomy cold light in his eyes at this moment. The other party calmed down and faced his face.

He lowered his gun without joking at all: "Either, if you hand over the prescription, I can still save your life. Or, I will sacrifice your life and blood to persuade Your Majesty to attack the city immediately. Mr. is a smart man, he should know how It’s better for you to do it yourself.”

The heat is raging, and slander abounds.

Liu Bei may not care about losing the lives of a few soldiers, but continuing to fight in bad weather will undoubtedly dampen the morale of the army and reduce the chances of winning, not to mention his reputation as a benevolent king.

The battle of Yiling was about his only bloodiness after being washed away by the vicissitudes of life, and even more about his dignity that might be the last battle in his life. No matter in which aspect, he couldn't afford to lose.

But the more afraid of losing, the less confidence to win.

Li Yinzhou didn't mind the sharp weapon that could be pressed down at any time, and when Mi Zhao's anger dissipated, he said: "I have taught all the methods of saving people to the Shu doctors in the army, the general has already obtained what he wants, why bother to be greedy?"

Whether it is the bloodletting method at Shixuan points or Angongniuhuang pills, they are all magic weapons for treating summer diseases.

But the former is troublesome, and the latter is expensive. Neither of these two methods can be used on a large scale, and it is even more impossible to apply them in a short period of time to the front of the Shu army that has been lying down for six or seven hundred miles.

Mi Zhao sneered, "What do you mean?"

Li Yinzhou lifted his chin slightly, and spit out two words: "Retreat."

As soon as the words fell, the silver gun was pressed down, and a crimson blood line was drawn on the part of his exposed neck.

The prickly pain surged up unknowingly.

Mozhao has always been straightforward in his actions, and this will make him seem a little anxious, so he just turned cold and finally warned: "Life and death are at hand, sir, make a decision early."

The ruthlessness of the battlefield casts a gloomy epitome in the corner of this tent, showing mercy to the enemy is to be cruel to one's own people again and again.

Moose photo is serious.

This means that Liu Bei can no longer hold back.

Li Yinzhou lowered his eyes and said softly, "On the top of the mountain, there is soft comfrey, which has the effect of cooling blood."

Different from the pharmacology of the precious bezoar, the soft comfrey that grows in the mountains is cold and cool, and was originally used for burns and pressure sores. If you just study medical books and practice, it is difficult to try its cooling effect.

Therefore, only he and Sun Shangxiang are familiar with this method.

After hearing a satisfactory answer, Mi Zhao finally withdrew the gun.

He glanced at it one last time, turned around and left.

Mozhao had just walked away, and through the wooden tent door, Li Yinzhou vaguely heard the voice of a long-breathed pine.

He frowned and looked out, and there was no one else around, only a few grains of gravel rolled gently on the ground, wobbling, and finally stopped in a corner where no one was around.

……

Mizhao knocked out the prescription of Liangxue Decoction from Li Yinzhou, and the military doctor of the Central Sichuan Army found the sentence "what is hot is cold" in the cracks of "Plain Questions" very belatedly, and then realized the combination and presented it Gave it to Liu Bei.

A batch of medicinal materials was urgently transferred from the Shu soil behind Wu County, but this soft comfrey grows on the top of a high mountain and cannot be found anywhere on the river bank, so it can only be presented to the superiors. Please divide your troops into the mountains to collect grass.

At noon the next day, Liu Bei ordered to abandon the waterway, and the whole army moved to the mountains to escape the summer heat.

There was a burst of joyful voices from the whole army.

Finally, I can leave this hot hell and go to a place with shade to enjoy the cool!

As for why Emperor Shuhan made the decision at this time, the people below didn't think much about it, but Mi Zhao vaguely noticed the deep meaning: the line of troops has stretched for hundreds of miles, and the troops of each battalion are scattered in clusters. For the defense of the place, the [-] elite soldiers in their hands are like a long rope, and they have to go to one place to advance and retreat, so that they can be strong and indestructible.

Even if it's just a day or midnight, as long as a slight flaw is exposed, it may become a node for the opponent to break through.

What's more, Li Yinzhou and Wu Jun had a plan earlier, hiding ambush soldiers in the mountains and forests, and deliberately lured them into the trap one after another.One must know that Lu Boyan intercepted Guan Gong with a beautiful ambush, what sinister and weird things he couldn't do?

Therefore, even if it is just to guard against the bad intentions of Mr. Li and Dudu Lu, the whole army has to act together.

At this time, opening their mouths to go into the mountains to cool off the heat and rebuild the morale of the army is tantamount to giving a fountain of thirst, and the morale that has fallen to the bottom will rise by a large amount in an instant.

There is no shortage of tricks against the enemy!

The Shu army quickly organized, dispatched ships back to Wu Gorge, turned the navy into an army, and pushed the camp along the coast ten miles directly to the side of the mountain, and stationed on the mountainside under the shade of the mountain forest.

That night.

The first battalion where Li Yinzhou was in finally fell into the mountains. The soldiers who had been working all night blew out the torches and carefully splashed the spring water from the mountain stream. of firewood.

After a whole day of rest and migration, the entire barracks seemed to be sleeping soundly, extremely quiet, only the faint lights of the fire reflected the shadows of the mountains and forests, and also outlined the undulating top corners of the military tents one after another.

After half a year of stalemate, how can the soldiers not be tired?

This rare and cool night was as pure and lingering as a dream.

Li Yinzhou blew out the fire, and the tent was plunged into darkness. At this very moment, a light footstep landed behind him, approaching quietly.

Sure enough, someone was spying secretly!

wow——

With a light flick of Li Yinzhou's wrist, the embers with a little red star on the fire fold dripped into the lamp oil, and the flame lit up an inch of light in an instant, clearly illuminating the strange steps.

A creeping shadow appeared on the wall.

Being caught on the spot, both the person and the shadow froze in embarrassment for a moment.

Li Yinzhou frowned and turned around, just about to question who was so bold, when he lowered his brow in surprise, he raised a playful arc: "Ten... How many?"

The man shone in the light, his face was clear, and his mouth curled up in aggrieved way: "Fifteen."

It's really him.

Li Yinzhou covered the lamp with his hands, and asked him, "What are you doing here?"

In the dim light, the silhouette of the young soldier was even more immature. He looked around and said in a low voice, "Sir, let's go."

Why go, how to go, where to go?

Fifteen are not specified.

But the implication is very obvious.

I'm afraid Liu Bei is ready for the final blow, and he is no longer prepared to continue the stalemate, but will launch an offensive again after reorganizing the army.

Once Yiling City is destroyed, the seat where he watched the battle will become the execution ground, and this life, which is more threatening than valuable, will be buried with Wu Jun.

It is indeed Liu Bei's trick to kill people and silence them.

But are these soldiers who met each other trustworthy?

Seeing that he closed his eyes and said nothing, Shiwu didn't care about other things, and said anxiously: "We Shu people are the most loyal, and we won't break our promises if we say we want to repay a favor! The people who live in the nearby military tents are all my fellow villagers. After surveying, there is a trail along the east side of the mountain, you can just walk east along it, hurry up!"

As she said that, she couldn't help but pull him out.

Clap.

The oil lamp on the table was brushed by the long sleeves that covered it, and the tiles were broken to the ground.

Lamp oil dripped down a thread.

The falling fire light quickly ran up the table legs along the lamp oil, and protruded vigorously towards the roof of the tent, illuminating the entire military tent in an instant.

In the night shrouded in drowsiness and drowsiness, an open flame could be seen faintly.I don't know who shouted loudly, waking up from the dream.

"It's on fire!!"

The flames shone on Fifteen's bewildered cheeks, and the moist eyes flickered. The young man endured without panic, and forcibly calmed down: "Sir, take advantage of the chaos and run away. I will take care of everything. Anyway..."

"Hush." ​​Li Yinzhou raised his finger, pressed his trembling lips, and turned to look out the window.

The awakened soldiers ran out of the tent like ants, but they didn't immediately gather towards this unusually bright corner, but instead reported something in a panic.

The dark blue night sky is full of dark clouds, a crescent moon hangs over the top of the forest, and a faint clear mist generally sprinkles on the mountain, condensing into cold frost to drive away the heat.

This night in the deep forest was actually a bit indescribably cold.

A black crow rattled across the bright moon.

The world seemed to be dark for a moment.

At the same moment, countless flames pierced through the cold fog like lightning, drawing streaks of red light in the cold night!

The camp tents that had just been set up were like wooden targets, and flames were ignited one after another, and the entire Shu army that was connected to the mountain was instantly swallowed into an endless sea of ​​​​flames.
