Jiang Bingzhong smiled awkwardly when Yang Fan took away the medical alcohol.
"As for that, I've had it too. It's just a bit spicy. It's not poisonous." Zhang Shize was still unconvinced. It has long been a well-known secret that the disinfectant in the hands of military doctors is actually high-quality spirits.
However, no one dared to say it publicly, and they were all trying to find ways to secretly get some from the hospital. Each of these animals is smarter than monkeys. They even invented safe ways to drink it.
It has always been China's fine tradition that there are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom. They used materials they could find in the military camps. Put the alcohol stolen from the hospital in the lunch box and light a kerosene lamp underneath to heat it. This will allow the alcohol to evaporate. The degree will decrease.
As long as the temperature is down, it is safe to drink.
In fact, it’s okay to drink it directly, the medical alcohol content is 75 degrees. It’s okay to drink. The original wine from the winery, which is 75 degrees, is too spicy and burning. As long as you don't drink too much, it won't be a big problem.
They all agreed that the commander was afraid that they would spoil things and made it up to scare them.
In this day and age, wine is not cheap. The food is not enough to eat, so the food is used to make wine, which shows how precious the wine is. Now, in North China and Northwest China, food prices are soaring, and a large number of poor people are starving to death. In Shaanxi, even a bowl of rice can buy a big girl.
In this case, the preciousness of wine can be imagined.
In their view, the so-called alcohol is just super strong wine. It's definitely more expensive than wine. The commander was afraid that he had been secretly drunk and had no alcohol to treat his wounds, so he made it up to scare people.
In fact, at night, some people gathered together to cover the light, secretly heated alcohol with kerosene lamps, and then drank secretly. Recently, although I have fought a lot, I have consumed too much alcohol. Especially since officers are already habitual offenders in stealing alcohol.
Yang Fan felt that it would be impossible if he didn't straighten things out. Now even Zhang Shize and Jiang Bingzhong are drinking secretly. If this continues, will there be enough disinfectant?
Yang Fan immediately sent an order to the Military Justice Department to investigate the behavior of secretly drinking alcohol in the entire army. Once found, all of them would be given five military sticks, regardless of their position.
Of course, these two people in front of them will not be beaten. Others were not so lucky.
"After capturing Guihua City and annihilating 30,000 enemy troops, we should report victory to His Majesty as soon as possible." Zhang Shize said. He was really anxious. Such a great victory has not happened in the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years.
"Well, it's really time to report the victory. You were injured so badly this time, so it's up to you to go back with the prisoners, heads, and a thousand horses to report the victory." Yang Fan turned to Jiang Bingzhong and said.
Jiang Bingzhong nodded, he had no objection, he was basically bedridden now. With such a serious injury, the conditions here are poor, so it is really not as good as returning to Beijing to recuperate. He can't do much in his current state.
Besides, he has earned enough credit for his work. The Battle of Zhangjiakou, the Battle of Jining, and the Battle of Zhuozishan. Plus the battle of Guihua City. He also killed Wu Ya'er Huntaiji of ten thousand households in Alxa. The credit is indeed enough.
Zhang Shize glanced at Yang Fan. Yang Fan took Jiang Bingzhong away at this time. It seemed that he was going to attack the 20,000 Shanxi and 20,000 Nanzhili people who had sneaked in among the people.
Jiang Bingzhong is actually His Majesty's eyes and ears here. There are some things that are not to be known to Your Majesty next. Zhang Shize had no grudges against Jin Dang and Dong Lin. However, by reaching into the Beijing camp, they did violate the taboo of the British government.
Military power is the foundation of the British government. If you want to touch his military power, he will risk his life for you.
This time, these two powerful groups brought in people with unknown local origins. Something is definitely going to happen. The Jin Party does not want Yang Fan to succeed in the Western Expedition, because if Yang Fan succeeds in the Western Expedition, it will lead to the abolition of the Nine Borders.
It's like an escort being stopped by a thief. The thief will ask him, whose food do you eat? The bodyguard would say, eat from your friends. This is the truth, you think, if the thief is gone. Why do you need bodyguards?
By the same token, Yang Fan eliminated the threat from the Mongols. Why spend millions of dollars that year to support nine frontier troops? Did the emperor have nothing to spend his money on?
Chongzhen didn't get burned because he had too much money. He was short of money, and claws almost stretched out of his throat.
How to prevent the emperor from abolishing Jiubian, especially Datong Town, Xuanfu Town and Shanxi Town, three important military towns that have been infiltrated by the Jin Party for more than two hundred years. The key is to raise the bandits to respect themselves. Uncle Dingyuan must not be allowed to bring down Mongolia.
For Dong Lin, the same is true.
The Mongols fell down, and they took the opportunity to seize the military power of the Jin Party and Shaanxi-Gansu. However, they do not want the Jingying camp that has been regaining its glory to return to Chongzhen's hands. If the emperor wants to use troops, he only needs Yuan Chonghuan's troops.
Don't let your majesty touch the military power. Once the emperor takes control of the army, it will be bad if his head gets hot and he does some irrational behavior.
Jiang Bingzhong looked at the two people with twinkling eyes, and he knew very well. When the wind subsides, the waves break, and when the shore arrives, you leave the ship. These two people are messing around for women, and they are definitely not good people.
The Jiang family has always been lonely and loyal ministers among the nobles. So much so that the nobles do not take their families to play with the gray benefits. He is about to attack certain people.
Last time he was in Zhangjiakou, he could see that the swordsmen were seeking death. The civil servants who accompanied the army this time were generally from Donglin, and a small number were from the Jin Party. The remaining parties have some. This was specially arranged by the emperor and the cabinet. It is to prevent the dominance of one family from causing the court to turn a blind eye to matters on the front line. Don't know anything. Let Yang Fan and Zhang Shize fuck.
When Zhangjiakou was in Zhangjiakou, the Jin Party had a falling out with Donglin. We fought all night. It's strange that Yang Fan and Zhang Shize can tolerate this situation. Until now, I have been very patient in planning to deal with them.
Although Jiang Bingzhong doesn't like to talk, he is not a fool. At this time, the commander-in-chief gives you a chance to let you go. If you don't leave, you will fall into the whirlpool of the imperial struggle and no one will blame you.
"I will set out tomorrow. I will report in detail the great achievements of the officers and men of the three armies to Your Majesty, the Cabinet, the Ministry of War, and the Governor's Office of the Fifth Armed Forces. Marshal and Deputy Marshal, my health is not good anymore, so I won't be a burden to the army. You also have more Take care, and may the army continue its efforts to regain Jiuyuan and Linhe and restore the entire territory of Yunzhong."
After speaking, Jiang Bingzhong cupped his hands with a trace of solemnity on his face.
Yang Fan also handed over his hand and said, "I'd like to thank the soldiers for their hard work and contribution."
Early the next morning, Jiang Bingzhong got on Yang Fan's four-wheel carriage. They set off with the remaining cavalry of more than 130 servants, a battalion of infantry, more than 300 captured nobles, and the heads of more than 30 vehicles, as well as the captured ones.
Yang Fan and Zhang Shize arrived at the gate of the camp. Watch the team go away.
Zhang Shize turned to Yang Fan and asked, "How are you going to deal with them?"
