There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 681
[Chapter 681, asking for medicine]
Wu Jingyi arrived at the northern border in early May. Seeing the medicinal materials piled up in the warehouse, the border generals and military doctors breathed a sigh of relief.
Since last month, the Eight Kings have reached some kind of agreement with the Tatars. The Tatars are willing to be the vanguard, and they have fought several medium-scale battles with them, and there is also a large-scale battle.
During this period, many soldiers were injured.
Because of the lack of medicine, most of the wounded soldiers were carrying it hard.
Now that the medicine is here, the soldiers are saved.
Knowing that the medicinal materials sent this time were donated by the Yan family, all the generals secretly expressed their gratitude in their hearts.
After Wu Jingyi arrived at the border, he was not idle, and immediately had a meeting with the generals to learn more about the situation of the war. This was specially explained by the emperor before he left Beijing.
Although some people passed the news of the border to Beijing every once in a while, there was a difference between what was written and what he saw with his own eyes, so Wu Jingyi inquired very carefully. After that, he took his personal guards to various places to inspect.
When Wu Jingyi was busy, Wu Dingbai was also busy. He was busy inquiring about Mr. Xiao, wondering whether the famous man in the capital who was as annoying as himself in childhood had become as powerful as his father said.
After inquiring, Wu Dingbai was full of pity and regret.
Everyone was in awe when they mentioned Mr. Xiao, and there were signs that he and Mr. Xiao were no longer the same.
After running for more than half a month, Wu Jingyi almost understood what the emperor ordered, so he was ready to return to Beijing.
“Father, we haven’t seen that Lord Xiao yet.” Wu Dingbai was very dissatisfied with going back so soon.
Wu Jingyi glanced at him sideways: “You think everyone is doing nothing like you, they are on business, how can they have time to talk to you?”
Wu Dingbai snorted and said, “It’s fine if you don’t talk to me, but you don’t even see Dad, isn’t it justified?”
Wu Jingyi didn’t say anything, he and Xue Xiangchen met, although the guy didn’t say it clearly, he also hinted With a click of his hand, Xiao Yeyang led the two brothers Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao into the two cities that the Eight Kings had seized.
At this time, it is strange that they can see the talent.
Before leaving, Wu Jingyi had a meal with the generals. After most of the meal, a soldier ran in in a panic. As soon as he came in, he knelt down towards Chu Gang
and said with red eyes: “Commander, General Kou is dying, please save him.”
He stood up abruptly, and said anxiously, “Didn’t the military doctor bring the medicine to treat him? Why can’t it work? Come on, take me there to have a look.”
Saying that, he strode out of the military tent.
Wu Jingyi didn’t think too much, and followed along with other generals.
Soon, a group of people came to General Kou’s military tent.
Looking at General Kou, who was dying of high fever and dying, all the generals showed sadness.
Chu Gang found it hard to accept: “Why is this happening? Kou Yaowu is in very good health, why can’t he survive after being stabbed?” The
military doctor said: “General Kou was injured and was not treated in time. The wound was very infected. Although the medicine was used, the wound has not healed, and now he has a high fever.”
At this point, the military doctor couldn’t continue.
Wu Jingyi frowned tightly, and the wound infection caused a high fever, which could almost be said to be hopeless.
This kind of situation is not uncommon in the army, and many soldiers died because of it.
At this moment, a general stood up and said, “Someone can save General Kou.”
Hearing this, the people in the military tent all looked at the general who spoke.
Chu Gang asked excitedly: “Who?!”
The general looked at Chu Gang: “Commander, have you forgotten Dr. Ge from Jinlingwei?” When
mentioning this person, Chu Gang immediately remembered.
Not long ago, the Jinling Guard led by Xiao Yeyang was ambushed by the killer of the Eight Kings. Many people, like General Kou, developed a high fever due to wound infection. Doctor Ge took out a white pill and fed it to everyone. Within two days, those people gradually improved.
The efficacy of that medicine is really good, and it saved many soldiers who almost died due to wound infection.
But
at that time, the army was in short supply of medicinal materials. Seeing that Dr. Ge had such good medicines in his hands, he forcibly confiscated most of them as the commander.
This move undoubtedly angered Xiao Yeyang.
Soldiers were injured a lot in combat, but Jin Lingwei was still doing business with his head up. Once he was injured, it would be a serious injury. There was no medicine to treat it, and he would definitely die.
He took away most of the medicine, so Xiao Yeyang was in a hurry with him. Wu Dingbai saw that General Kou, who was lying on the
bed, had breathed in more air and out breathed less, he said quickly: “Since someone can heal you, what are you still doing? Go and find Dr. Ge to save him!”
The general didn’t move, but looked at Chu Gang together, and Chu Gang looked at Wu Jingyi.
Wu Jingyi was looked at inexplicably: “What do you see me doing?”
Chu Gang hesitated for a moment, and said awkwardly: “I’m afraid I have to trouble you to go to
Jinlingwei.” Wu Jingyi frowned: “Why, Jinlingwei even Aren’t you willing to help me with this favor?”
Chu Gang looked a little embarrassed, he dragged Wu Jingyi to the corner, and whispered about the thoughtless thing he did before.
Wu Jingyi looked at Chu Gang speechlessly: “Your actions are quite offensive. If you say hello to Xiao Yeyang in advance, nothing will happen?”
Chu Gang: “Didn’t I be in a hurry? You didn’t see that during the time when the medicine was short, soldiers died every day. As the commander of the first army, how could I just watch it? But at that time, Xiao Yeyang I’m not here, so I can only cut and play first.”
Wu Jingyi: “Xiao Yeyang is not a stingy man, since you are here to save people, it stands to reason that he shouldn’t be in a hurry with you.”
Chu Gang touched it embarrassingly. Nose: “The main reason is that there are not many medicines. I have looked at it, and there is only one jar. After I took most of it, Doctor Ge was so anxious that he almost didn’t do anything with me, saying that it was specially ordered by his master to bring it to Xiao Ye. Yang, Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai are using it.” Wu Jingyi was silent, and looked at General Kou lying on the bed: “I can run for you, but isn’t Xiao Yeyang
not here?” Chu Gang immediately said: ”
I just received the news before dinner that he brought someone back.”
Wu Jingyi snorted: “Remember, you owe me a favor.”
Chu Gang nodded quickly: “As long as you can save Kou Yaowu, don’t say a single one. I will recognize even two.” General Kou is a strong general in his hands, if he really wants to sacrifice, he will die of heartache.
When Wu Dingbai heard that his father was going to Jinlingwei’s office, he immediately clamored to go too.
One, I wanted to see the difference between Mr. Xiao and my childhood; two, I went for the food they brought.
Now it’s time for dinner, his father has gone, why should Mr. Xiao entertain him.
For the third master of the Wu family who loves food, he suffered a great crime during the time he came to the border. The food in the barracks was too bad. If he didn’t get hungry, he would definitely not want to eat it.
