Inside the Ming army camp.
Zhao Daqian was tied up tightly by the Ming army and thrown directly in front of Li Jin.
Looking at the embarrassed young general Annan in front of him, Li Jin just raised his eyelids slightly and was not in a hurry to deal with it. He still drank the tea in his hand calmly.
After Zhao Daqian was caught by the Ming army, he thought he would be treated cruelly, but he did not expect that the other party would ignore him.
Being pushed and pushed along the way, Zhao Daqian originally thought that he would give it a hard time, but in the end he had no choice but to end it on his own.
But now faced with Li Jin's indifferent attitude, Zhao Daqian's thoughts were quite complicated for a while. He was also an Annan general after all, but he was ignored by Da Ming. He immediately became even more indignant towards Da Ming, but he still had a doubt in his heart. It was not untied, otherwise he would have committed suicide in anger.
It was extremely quiet in the tent, and after a while.
Li Jin then put down the tea cup in his hand and raised his eyes to look at Zhao Daqian. The latter's face had become much calmer than the angry one at the beginning.
"How does it feel?"
Li Jin's sudden inquiry sounded in the tent.
Zhao Daqian asked reflexively:
"What?"
"How does it feel to be caught?"
Li Jin asked again.
Hearing this, Zhao Daqian frowned and said impatiently:
"No!"
Bai Guang chuckled, "Haha, I don't know whether you are stupid or crazy. We haven't come to trouble you yet, but you actually dare to come and die. Do you really think that we can't do anything to you?"
"If the river hadn't blocked us, you would have been annihilated by us countless times!"
Seeing Bai Guang being so arrogant, Zhao Daqian suddenly became furious and said angrily:
"As invaders, you invade our Annan territory, how can you still be so confident?"
"We are just resisting aggression and fighting back bravely, so what if we die? Do you think we are really afraid of death?"
Bai Guang looked at Zhao Daqian playfully and asked:
"If you are not afraid of death, then fine, I will help you!"
"Come here, pull him down and behead him in public!!"
"Wait!!"
As soon as Li Jin finished speaking, Zhao Daqian directly stopped him, without any of the righteousness he had shown just now.
Li Jin smiled and said, "What? Are you giving in now?"
"How did you look at death just now? I really thought that Annan people were not afraid of death, but now it seems that they are just idiots!"
"I will give you a chance to avoid death. As long as you are willing to kowtow to me three times, I will spare your life."
"Hmph, I'm not afraid of death, I just have a question I want to figure out, otherwise I won't die in peace!!"
Zhao Daqian stared at Li Jin and said word by word:
"According to the report from our envoy, you have obviously been infected by the plague. Why are you safe now?"
"You even have the strength to fight against our Annan powerful elite army and defeat us? Why is all this happening?"
Seeing the confusion in Zhao Daqian's eyes, Li Jin chuckled and explained:
"First of all, I want to correct your mistake. Your Annan army is not strong. On the contrary, you are very weak. You are so weak that you are not qualified for our army to use all its strength to deal with you."
"Secondly, the plague you are talking about is nothing but malaria."
"Because of your geographical environment, mosquitoes are the easiest way to spread malaria, so you dare to provoke Ming Dynasty so unscrupulously. You think the plague can stop us, but you are totally wrong."
"It's just malaria. For me, it's just a piece of cake. It only takes a little trick to solve the plague you talk about. I can only say that you are unlucky if you encounter me."
Li Jin talked freely to Zhao Daqian, always emphasizing how awesome he was, while Fu Youde on the side recalled the scene of the previous two days, but it was not as relaxed as Li Jin said.
At that time, malaria was raging in the Ming army camp. More than half of the 100,000 soldiers in the army were infected. Seeing that the army was in danger, even Li Jin and Fu Youde were infected in the end. The entire Ming army camp was in danger. Fortunately, Qinghao finally arrived.
The arrival of Artemisia annua made Li Jin extremely excited. Fu Youde didn't know the role of Artemisia annua, but then a miraculous scene happened.
"A handful of Artemisia annua, soaked in two liters of water, wring out the juice and drink it all, it can cure malaria..."
Malaria was an unsolvable plague among the Ming army, but in Li Jin's view, only the use of Artemisia annua could solve this unsolvable problem.
Li Jin ordered the officers and soldiers of the camp to start using a large amount of artemisia annua. Regardless of whether you were infected with malaria or not, as long as you were alive, you had to drink a bowl of artemisia annua juice.
This is why before setting off, Li Jin ordered Fu Youde to collect artemisia annua throughout the southwest, because the juice of artemisia annua was the antidote to the plague.
It's just that this stuff grows more in Yunnan and Guizhou, so it's been delayed until now to send it to the front line. If the artemisia annua arrives two days later, the consequences are really unimaginable.
Not to mention that Annan's army will attack when the time comes, the Ming army will not be able to withstand it just because of vomiting and diarrhea.
Fortunately, everything came just right. In the end, a miracle happened. Li Jin used Qinghao to save everyone, making Fu Youde admire Li Jin.
After listening to Li Jin's story, Zhao Daqian didn't believe it:
"How can such severe malaria be solved by your little Qinghao? Don't talk nonsense!"
"Artemisia annua is not even a herbal medicine at all, it is just a weed by the river. Can this kind of thing also be used as an antidote?"
"If you don't want to say it, you don't have to say it. Why are you deceiving me, a dying man, here? Is this the magnanimity of the Ming Dynasty?"
After Li Jin heard this, he did not continue to explain anything, but Fu Youde on the side couldn't help but said angrily:
"What nonsense!"
"Open your eyes and see, our Ming army is a living example!"
After being scolded suddenly, Zhao Daqian immediately snorted angrily at Fu Youde.
Fu Youde twisted his wrist, and it was obvious that he wanted to repair the opponent.
Seeing this, Li Jin spoke at the right time and said:
"Since you don't believe it, it doesn't matter. Just come with me to a place and have a look."
Zhao Daqian looked at Li Jin in confusion, but the other party walked out of the tent first. Then two soldiers took Zhao Daqian away from the tent and headed towards the destination.
The place where Li Jin wanted to take Zhao Daqian was the field hospital in the Ming army camp.
Under Li Jin's suggestion, the Ming army gradually began to popularize field hospitals, especially the practice on the Japanese islands, which completely verified the practicality of field hospitals.
Therefore, now Zhu Yuanzhang has begun to slowly reform the military system, and this field hospital is one of them.
Li Jin took him to see it personally just to verify his words. He naturally had his own ideas as to why he valued Zhao Daqian so much.
After Zhao Daqian entered the field hospital, he also saw a scene that he would never forget.
