Man Bao thought for a while, and picked out ten fast-moving and strong students to follow, um, four boys and six girls.
The rest were left to Imperial Physician Lu.
The army marched in a hurry, Man Bao rode a horse, and ten students crowded into two carts loaded with grain, grass and medicinal materials.
Seeing how uncomfortable they were, Man Bao rode along beside them, scolding them as he walked, "I taught you how to ride when you were in school, but who of you took it to heart? Now you know how hard it is." Well, if you are good at riding, I can ask someone to ride some horses for you."
Wen Tiandong and the others were embarrassed. He thought he could ride a horse, but the last time he ran with the army, because the surrounding horses ran a little faster, it was a little frightened, so he spread his legs and rushed forward, scaring him. I almost fell off my horse, and later the army no longer provided horses for medical bills.
Wen Tiandong's riding skills are not bad, let alone other people, so the right to equip horses for the medical account was directly deprived, and Man Bao couldn't say anything against it.
But they are technicians, although Zhou Man occasionally let them run with the army with a medicine box, but when they encounter urgent marches and transfer accounts, they still have a car to sit in, and they can't run around like running on two legs. Soldiers are strong.
Man Bao rode a horse and ran beside her. She didn't feel any discomfort except that the wind blowing in front of her was a little cold. She told them: "When you return to the capital, you have to increase the number of riding lessons, at least three lessons in two days. Classes and examination standards should also be raised.”
Everyone, including Zhou Liru, couldn't help but sigh, feeling that there was not enough time.
Man Bao glared at Zhou Liru. When she went to the Western Regions, she learned half-baked riding skills, and the speed of the horse became uncontrollable.
Man Bao kicked the horse in the belly, causing the horse to run forward instead of just staring at them.
They set off in the afternoon and traveled all the way in a hurry. In the evening, they only stopped to rest and eat dry food, and then continued.
This was the first time for Wen Tiandong and others to participate in a rapid march. Before that, they were attacking cities and conquering territory, and the speed was not very fast, and their medical staff followed behind, so the marching speed was not fast.
Not only them, but even Zhou Man felt very hard for a quick march, not to mention the running soldiers.
However, they had good patience and kept following behind without falling behind.
Everyone hurried through the night, and the scouts scouted the road ahead until midnight, when the scouts came back quickly and reported: "General, there is a fight at the west gate of Anshi City."
He Li's eyes lit up, and he asked, "How far is it from here to Anshi City?"
"About ten miles."
"Very well, pass the order down and rest at the same place." Then he found the deputy general and said to him, "Take a group of people to stay, rest for a quarter of an hour, then hurry towards Anshi City, and directly join the battle when you arrive."
The lieutenant general was taken aback and said: "But general, we have been rushing all night, and the soldiers are afraid that they will be exhausted."
"But the opportunity is rare. The west gate of Anshi City may be opened this time. I will take the cavalry to support first." Qibi Heli paused, and said: "Don't delay, taking down Anshi City will give enough time for them to rest."
Lieutenant General: ... The premise is that they were still alive at that time
But he still complied.
Military orders are like mountains, they are military orders, and they have to obey them.
Qibi Heli immediately turned around to look for Zhou Man who was sitting on the ground feeling drowsy, "Master Zhou."
Man Bao woke up startled, looked up at him, "What's the matter with the general?"
"We have to go one step ahead, Lord Zhou, who will we send with us?"
Man Bao got up immediately, "I'll go with you."
After thinking about it, she still ordered Wen Tiandong and Zhou Liru, and said, "You two go with me."
Then he and Qibi He Li laughed and said: "Please also ask the general to give them two horses."
He Li responded with a smile, and immediately asked for two horses to be given to them.
Man Bao ordered: "Check the medicine box, tweezers, knife, needle thread, needle bag, medicine bag..."
"Bring all the hemostatic pills, gold sore medicine, and hemostatic kits we made before."
At this time, I am afraid that there is no time to set up a medical account for them, and fetch water to boil medicine, so they can only use proprietary medicines.
The students started to move, and found four big boxes in a short time. Man Bao frowned, so he could only go to Qibi Heli, and asked him to distribute the things and transport them to the place with them .
She said to a few students: "When this battle is over, we will sew a few big bundles to hold medicinal materials, so that it will be easier to get."
Su Banxia was stunned: "The burden still needs to be sewed?"
"Of course, if you pack a lot like this, it won't fall off. A bag wrapped in a piece of cloth is not called a bag."
Everyone: ... Then what have they been carrying
After dividing it, Man Bao also took some and stuffed them all into cloth bags. This kind of cloth bag can be hung on the back of a horse, and the left and right bags can hold a lot of things.
Qibi Heli found a dozen or so people, and they divided up the contents of the four large boxes.
So everyone finally added something, ate two pieces of dry food, took a sip of water, got on the horse and left.
Man Bao also patted his face, and got on his horse after regaining some energy.
Qibi Heli purposely asked her to follow her side, so that she could be more protected, otherwise what would she do if she stumbled while running
It's dark at night.
It was not ten miles away, but not far away. It took less than two quarters of an hour for a fast horse, and then they heard the sound of swords clashing and shouts of killing.
The west gate of Anshi City was ablaze at this time, the two gates were open, and the two sides were fighting in the bridge hole of the gate.
The Goguryeo soldiers on the city wall spotted the enemy and shouted: "Their reinforcements have arrived, close the city gate quickly, close the city gate quickly—"
It is impossible to close the city gate. At this time, General Ashina, Xue Bei and Xue Gui are both inside the city gate, and they do not rush in, but guard the city gate tightly.
Just hold the city gate and wait for the army to arrive...
Qibi Heli didn't drop quickly, he directly drew out his long knife, stretched it forward, and shouted: "My sons, stand firm at the city gate, take down Anshi City and offer it to Your Majesty, go—"
The soldiers rushed past Zhou Man and Zhou Liru Wen Tiandong, and galloped towards the city gate.
Seeing this posture, Man Bao couldn't help shouting, "Don't kill the wrong person, we have red ribbons on our sleeves..."
Those who kill people are not bad. When General Ashina rushed into the city with his men, they took off the helmets on their heads. easy to see.
In an instant, only Man Bao and a dozen soldiers who brought medicine to them were left on the spot, and they were also responsible for protecting Zhou Man and the others.
Everyone looked up and looked under the city wall. When they took control of the city wall, the city gate would belong to them.
Qibi Heli pierced like a sharp knife. Seeing the reinforcements coming, Xue Gui no longer just passively defended. With a flick of his spear, he rushed directly into the city gate. , Instantly made the surrounding hollow, and made a small path.
Qibi Heli rushed in along the path with his men, went in and turned his horse's head to kill back. Seeing this, General Ashina led his men to guard the rear for him, preventing him from falling into the danger of being surrounded.
