Little General Meng brought back a large number of wounded soldiers, and the entire camp was busy. The eight assistants in the medical tent were not enough, so Bai Shan picked some people from his own guards and Nie Canjun to help.
Bai Shan was so busy trying to separate the patients, he only had time to show General Meng the whereabouts of General Guo before continuing to work.
Little General Meng went in and saw General Guo and his son, and couldn't help wiping away his tears.
General Meng turned around and left tent No. 1, and saw Zhou Man squatting on the ground holding scissors to treat wounds. He wanted to ask about General Guo's situation, but Bai Erlang squeezed him away from behind, "Let's go, Don't stand in the middle of the road..."
Bai Erlang put the hot water by Zhou Liru's side, took a look at her stitches, and saw that she was stitched, he found the hemostatic medicine in the basket beside him, applied the medicine directly, and then bandaged him.
Liu Huan, on the other hand, took the scissors and clicked the clothes that were stuck to the wound, and then cleaned them. After looking at the wound, he felt that there should be no need for stitches, so he stopped the bleeding and bandaged it.
Man Bao's speed was even faster than Zhou Liru's, and the two assistants he brought couldn't support him at all, so he had to find another person to help.
Little General Meng looked at him and suddenly covered his stomach. Bai Shan, who had diverted the wounded, walked past him and then backed away. He bent down and looked at his waist and abdomen. The color of the armor was too dark to tell anything. He stretched out his hand and pulled his hand away. As soon as he saw the knife marks on it, he took a look at the clothes and said, "Slightly injured, wait outside."
As soon as he looked up and saw General Meng, he felt that he was needed to charge forward and serve as a bridge to communicate with General Li, so he pulled him aside and pushed him down, "Take off the armor, let me see first, if it needs to be stitched I'll ask Man Bao to sew it up for you in a while."
General Meng: …
Little General Meng was scratched on the waist and abdomen by a knife, but fortunately he was blocked by the armor, so the wound was not very deep, and there was still some blood oozing at this time.
Bai Shan cleaned the wound for him, and Man Bao came over with a needle and thread, told him to lean back, and asked while stitching him up, "So Wangcheng has fallen now?"
General Meng responded, "General Guo... Let's take back the royal city after the general recovers."
Now that the group of dragons has no leader, they can't command the whole army even if they want to, and besides being ambushed this time, the morale is a bit low.
Man Bao frowned and asked, "How about the casualties of the soldiers?"
She herself saw so many wounded, but she didn't know how many died on the battlefield.
Little General Meng said: "Four hundred and ninety-eight people were killed and wounded...you have also seen it."
Man Bao sewed up the wound silently, then turned to look at other wounded patients.
Man Bao, the military doctor and others were busy until the evening before treating all the injuries. Bai Shan and General Meng had already discussed with General Li to re-arrange the camp. Three miles and one checkpoint.
——
Today there are no enemy troops to intrude, Bai Shan said: "There are rebels in the city, so naturally there are also people who don't want to join them, and the King of Kucha has borrowed the power of the Turks. Our respite."
Little General Meng was eager to try, "If you take this opportunity to attack the city..."
"No," General Li objected, "We suffered heavy casualties last night, and General Guo couldn't show up. His morale is low, and if he goes, he will die."
Little General Meng was filled with regret, "Then when will we wait? In a few days, if they sort out the internal affairs, they will take the initiative to attack. At that time, we will take the initiative and become passive, and the situation will be even more unfavorable to us."
General Li also knew this, but insisted: "It is not appropriate for us to fight at this time."
Bai Shandao: "It's still because the morale is too low. If the morale recovers, we can attack."
Now they still have around 2,000 manpower available, so they can take a hit.
General Li said: "Unless General Guo comes back to life."
Bai Shan and General Meng: ... This is too difficult for General Guo, how can a dead person come back to life
There is no solution to the matter for the time being, they can only prepare for defense first, and send someone to inquire about the situation in the king's city by the way.
In the evening, the six of them sat by the fire exhausted, and they didn't even have much energy to eat.
Man Bao couldn't help sighing, "It turns out that what the book said is correct, when you are extremely tired, not only can't eat, but you don't even want to sleep."
She feels hungry now, but she doesn't really want to eat; she feels tired, but her brain refuses to stop for a moment, even if she wants to close her eyes and take a rest.
Bai Erlang and Liu Huan were in better condition. They didn't move their heads much today, most of them were doing physical work, so they were tired and hungry at this time, and they just buried their heads in the rice bowl without lifting them up.
Bai Shan is also tired, and he has been using his brain, so he doesn't have much appetite.
At this time, he was digging out all the military books he had read, and asked them, "What kind of strategy do you think we should use? It is best to let them create internal chaos, and don't send troops to attack us for at least five days. Or we can use Boost your morale and fight back before they make a move."
At this time, Man Bao's mind was still full of various things such as hemostasis, amputation, and sutures, and he couldn't squeeze the space to think about these things. He said casually: "Shout to be loyal to His Majesty and then charge forward."
Bai Shan glanced at her and asked, "Will you charge forward if I call you that?"
Man Bao shook his head.
Bai Shan said: "In the same way, others won't either."
He glanced at the soldiers who were patrolling in an orderly manner, and sighed: "If you want them to work hard, you must either bring General Guo back to life and give them the confidence to win the battle; or make them have to work hard by promising huge profits."
Man Bao worked hard to pick up the rice, barely took a bite of the rice and said: "But you are not a general, I'm afraid you can't give them a lot of money."
Bai Shan nodded, "Yes, they may not believe the promise I made, and if they believe it, they may not be able to count. So there is only one strategy left."
Man Bao, whose head was full of blood, finally squeezed out some space for him in his brain, and after thinking about it, he said: "This is not good, what if it becomes self-defeating?"
If the mourning soldiers still have faith, they can indeed fight with their backs, but if they can't control well and the mourning soldiers' hearts are dead, then they will be defeated for thousands of miles.
Bai Shan also knew that this method was dangerous, "So we can lay the groundwork first. There is just enough time in these two days, and we are not helpless in Wangcheng."
"any solution?"
Bai Shandao: "I asked General Meng to dismantle General Guo's utensils and tents, and told the soldiers that the general felt ashamed of the soldiers and decided to eat together with them before taking back the royal city. Sleeping together."
Of course, it is impossible for General Guo to really eat and sleep with them. After all, the people are gone, but the attitude can be shown.
The soldiers lived in ordinary tents, and he lived in a medical tent; the soldiers ate with ordinary ceramic bowls, and his porcelain bowls were also put away, and he used ceramic bowls like them...
That counts as the same.
Soldiers will also see this attitude.
