After dinner, Li Mushu followed everyone else to wash his hands in cold water with trembling hands, and washed his face too cruelly.He hadn't showered or washed his face for a month, which had reached Li Mushu's limit, and he couldn't take it anymore.He planned to wash off the dirt on his face first, and then put a layer of dust on it, so as to cover up and make him feel more comfortable.At least psychologically it will be better.

Li Mushu washed his face carefully, then went to the side and squatted on the ground, touched some clay powder, and then wiped it on his face.After wiping, he scratched his hair with his hands, made it messier and covered half of his face, and then rushed back to the tent.

Zhang Qiang, Zhang Xiaotian, and the others had already been lying in it. It was windy here at night, and the temperature dropped below ten degrees.The tent kept out the wind, and tarpaulins and hay were spread under the ground, which was much warmer than outside.

The tents here are divided into three types: large, medium and small.The large ones are generally used for sick patients, and can accommodate 10-12 people; the medium ones can generally accommodate 6-8 people, and the smallest ones can accommodate 4 people.This is the standard. If there is a lack of tents and the temperature drops, then a small tent may be able to squeeze ten people inside.

Zhang Qiang and Lin Jian were lying near the door, while Zhang Xiaotian and Li Mushu were lying inside, where it was warmer.At this time, Zhang Qiang and the others were talking about tomorrow's selection.

Li Mushu was the last one to rush in. At this time, he was undoing the square blanket with trembling fingers, and then tightened the thin padded clothes tightly. Then he lay down trembling all over, rolled himself up into a silkworm bed and closed it. Eyes sleep.Forget about oil lamps, there are torches everywhere in the camp, and the flames are so bright.

Li Mushu curled up in the blanket and thought he would not sleep well, but ended up sleeping like a dead pig.In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Xiaotian called him three times but he didn't respond. Zhang Qiang came over and grabbed his shoulders and shook him several times before he woke up.

Sleepy-eyed Li Mushu stood up reluctantly while yawning. He got out of the tent and looked up. The stars in the sky were still shining brightly. What time is it?

Li Mushu didn't have time to feel emotional when he was dragged by Zhang Qiang and the others to wash it.Already arrived at the military camp, if you are late to assemble, you will definitely be punished.This is the military discipline that the army must strictly abide by.Li Mushu, who woke up after washing his face, could vaguely hear the sounds of infantry drills.

Breakfast was still the unsurprising two yellow, yellow and gray steamed buns, but what surprised Li Mushu was that the steamed buns still had some residual warmth.In order to avoid eating cold and hard steamed buns, Li Mushu quickly ate them in two or three bites.Sure enough, the hot food tasted different, much more delicious.

After breakfast, Li Mushu, Zhang Qiang and the others lined up and trotted to the meeting place.At the front of the team there is a crude arena made of wood.There were seven people standing on the stage, looking at the group of recruits below with serious faces and evaluating.When the teams were all assembled, three people sat down on the stage, and the other four stood behind them.

Li Mushu and Zhang Xiaotian were short in their formation, so they were at the front.Li Mushu quietly raised his head and looked at the three people sitting on the stage by the moonlight. They must be military officers.

Sitting in the middle was a thin, white-faced scholar-type man in his thirties. He wore a dark robe and had a gentle and calm demeanor, more like a civil servant.And the ones sitting on both sides of him could be seen as military officers at a glance. They were tall and burly, with rough faces and beards. They also sat squarely.

The thin man stood up suddenly, took two steps forward and stopped, his piercing eyes swept towards the soldiers in the audience, his aura was released, everyone didn't even dare to breathe loudly, and there was a sudden silence one slice.Li Mushu never imagined that such a gentle man would have such a strong aura.It really is a battlefield.

Seeing the effect, the thin man took a breather and gave an order: "Listen, all those who can read or understand medicine come out and stand at the front of the line!"

After such an order, everyone was stunned for a while, you look at me, I look at yours.Li Mushu was also a little taken aback, but his feet came out faster than his head, and he became the leader.When the others saw Li Mushu coming out, the recruits who could read followed suit and walked to the front of their ranks to stand up.

Li Mushu secretly glanced left and right with the corners of his eyes, and found that among the nearly 200 people in the sixth team, there were very few who could read or understand medicine. All these people could be counted on ten fingers.Are there few scholars in the north?

Even though there were so few people, the scribe seemed very satisfied.He pointed to the space next to the stage and said, "All of you stand over there." After speaking, he took a special look at the leader Li Mushu.I saw that the young man was unkempt, really sloppy.Although the others were also dressed in tatters, they were at least much cleaner than him.Just like this, it really has nothing to do with literacy.

After the scribe finished his instructions, he went back and sat down, and the officer on his left stood up with a loud voice: "The captains of each team pick out the weakest soldiers in their own team. All the soldiers who are picked out go to the end of the team. stand face to face."

After hearing the order, the captains of each team immediately turned around and began to escape from the front of the team.Because I didn't change the captain halfway, I always lead the team along the way, and those captains know who is strong and who is weak in the team.The weak soldiers who were quickly picked out all ran to the back and stood in a row.

Li Mushu was young and not tall, he was stretching his neck to look at his team.He didn't know anyone from the other teams. Li Mushu only knew the four people who slept in the same tent yesterday. Lin Jian and Zhang Qiang were definitely going to fight. Now he only cared about whether Zhang Xiaotian would be singled out by Zhang Qiang?He hoped that Zhang Xiaotian could stay.

Sure enough, Zhang Xiaotian was picked out by Zhang Qiang, but it seemed that Zhang Xiaotian was very reluctant.Zhang Xiaotian told them last night that he wanted to go to the battlefield with Zhang Qiang, and that he would also meet General Xie Yueyun if he had the chance.It's just that Zhang Qiang felt that unless it was absolutely necessary, Zhang Xiaotian had better not.Swords and guns are ruthless, and Zhang Xiaotian probably has problems with self-protection on the battlefield, let alone killing the enemy.As for Li Mushu, he is weaker than Zhang Xiaotian.

After the candidates were selected, the officers on the right also spoke, and the sergeants behind them all ran off the stage to reorganize the six temporary teams into four teams, and they would lead the teams in person, and lead them after the training Run to the south, probably going to the first and second barracks.

The two military officers selected 30 of the remaining 20 soldiers and took them away. They will continue to drill in this battalion as a reserve army; of the remaining 10, 5 will be assigned to the kitchen to do odd jobs, and the remaining 5 People went to the wounded tents to take care of the wounded.Zhang Xiaotian was assigned to the kitchen and taken away.

Among the 9 people who can read and write, only Li Mushu knows a little bit of medicine, and the others only know some characters, and they are still at the level of the three-character classic and a hundred surnames.The scribe was quite surprised that Li Mushu knew medicine, because he looked too poor and dirty!

"You, and all of you, come with me." The scribe pointed to Li Mushu, and then instructed the five people who had just been assigned to take care of the patients: "The others stay put and wait for distribution." After finishing speaking, the scribe turned to face east. Walking, Li Mushu and the others hurriedly followed.

The camp where this military camp was set up was flattened by small hills backed by mountains. It was surrounded by trees and lush mountains, which was very concealed.Li Mushu and the others followed the scribe through the kitchen to the woods behind, where there was a narrow path.

After walking briskly for more than 20 minutes, the original greenery suddenly disappeared, and the field of vision opened up, and there was an open space the size of a football field in front of me.

Large tents are neatly set up on the left side of the open space, while a few small tents are set up on the right side.Rows of bamboo poles are erected in the middle, and some gauze scarves are hung to flutter in the wind; there is also a row of earthen stoves built with stones and mud.A row of medicine pots were placed on the earthen stove, and the medicine pots were steaming, decocting medicine.A young man was standing in front of the earthen stove with his back to them, fanning the fire while inspecting various medicine pots.

The strong, bitter scent of herbs filled the air, but it couldn't cover the smell of blood and the unpleasant smell of inflamed and rotting wounds coming from the big tent.Li Mushu and the others smelled it as soon as they stepped into the place, their brows furrowed, and almost everyone held their breath.

Everyone didn't dare to directly cover their mouths and noses in front of the scribes, but they just suppressed the nausea and slowly got used to it.One of them probably didn't sleep well last night, and couldn't help retching several times after smelling the smell, as if he had the urge to run to the side of the road to vomit.

Such a big movement naturally alarmed the young man, and he turned around to look at them.Seeing the scribe, he hurriedly put down the cattail fan in his hand, walked quickly to the scribe and bowed to salute: "Lord Zhou."

"Well, is Doctor Wang seeing a doctor?"

"Yes. A dozen more wounded were sent in yesterday, and some of them had a fever this morning. Master Zhou, please wait a moment, and the younger ones will inform Doctor Wang immediately."

"No, I'll just go in and find him."

"Yes. Doctor Wang is in the tent at the back." The young man smiled at Li Mushu and the others, then turned around to cook the medicine.

Lord Zhou led Li Mushu and the others towards the big tent on the left. The closer they got, the stronger the unpleasant smell became. It was a rotten smell and an unbearable suffocation.Even Li Mushu couldn't help but want to gag when he smelled it.

From now on, he will work in this temporary ward, and Li Mushu couldn't help but look at it carefully.Some of the large tents used as wards were opened for ventilation, while others were pressed tightly with stones. It seemed that Dr. Wang acted according to his illness.Li Mushu couldn't help but nodded.

In every open tent lay no less than ten wounded soldiers, some were moaning softly, and some were motionless.However, they all passed through seven tents, but they didn't see a nurse-like person taking care of the wounded soldiers inside.Li Mushu couldn't help but frowned.

He knows that there are very few military doctors in modern times and ancient times.But he didn't expect it to be so rare. What's more, the facilities here are so simple and unhygienic, and the probability of injury on the battlefield is so high. It seems that once injured, it will be a dead end.No wonder they want to send themselves to the battlefield...

Thinking of this, Li Mushu couldn't help shaking his head vigorously, he couldn't think about these anymore, since he's already here, he should think about how to use his expertise to revive the wounded soldiers.
