Xinzheng City and the Chinese army have been completely placed under martial law.
On the couch in the big tent, the old general Lian Po, with his hair and beard all white, his face like gold paper and his eyes closed, was sitting upright.
It's not that the old general didn't want to lie down and rest, but it was because arrows penetrated him in the front and back. He couldn't lie down until he was dealt with. There were also knife marks and sword marks everywhere on his arms and legs, and the red blood had already soaked his armor. .
Several veteran military doctors joined forces, but they were helpless in the face of the veteran general's injuries.
To treat the wound, the armor must be removed, and to remove the armor, the arrow must be pulled out.
Other than that, the arrows on the chest and back were holding tightly to the armor. If it were to be pulled out with brute force, no one knew what would happen if it was pulled out.
Several veteran military doctors discussed it for a long time, but still didn't have a charter. The only option is to cut the arrows short and then dispose of them.
At this moment, the soldiers supporting the old general on the left and right suddenly saw that the old general seemed to move.
Immediately, the soldiers called the military doctor.
Upon seeing this, the old military doctor also immediately ordered: "Quick, before the old general reacts, give the old general some honey water."
"Yes." Another military doctor who had been waiting aside immediately came to the old general with a small bowl. Then he carefully brought the warm honey water to the old general's lips.
As his throat moved slightly, half a bowl of honey water finally entered the old general's belly.
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. XiuShu.com
Drinking a bowl of honey and water, although it cannot solve the old general's injury, can at least provide the old general with some energy and allow him to hold on for a while longer.
When the deputy general on the side saw the hesitation of the military doctors, he saw it and became anxious in his heart.
After a while, the military doctors still couldn't come up with a solution, and the deputy general became a little anxious.
He knew very well that if the old general could not wake up at dawn, this would be a devastating blow to the morale of the entire Xinzheng City.
Fortunately, just when everyone was anxious, the old general finally woke up after drinking a bowl of honey water.
"Old General." The soldier who was supporting the old general was the first to notice the old general's awakening.
A pair of tiger eyes were now filled with a sense of exhaustion. After briefly scanning the scene, the old general already knew the current situation.
Seeing the military doctors arriving one after another, the old general gathered his last strength, spoke slowly, and ordered: "Pull out the arrow."
"Yes." After hearing the old general's order, the old military doctor immediately stopped hesitating.
People are like this sometimes. It's not that they don't know the best way, but they just don't want to bear the consequences. Once someone gives the order, everyone can take action quickly.
With the old general's order, everyone seemed to have found a backbone and immediately began to perform their duties.
Gauze, scissors, pliers, and knives were quickly put away one after another.
Other military doctors used fire to sterilize their instruments, prepared gold sore medicine, and some even stuffed a piece of gauze into the old general's mouth.
Seeing that everything was ready, the old military doctor waved his hand to signal everyone to disperse, then rolled up his sleeves, took a deep breath, and began to give instructions.
"Scissors."
The old general's armor was carefully cut open again. Because it was sticky with the flesh and blood, the scissors would inevitably tear the flesh and blood apart again.
Drops of blood instantly emerged from the wound, and large beads of sweat instantly emerged from the old general's forehead.
And this is just the beginning.
"Knife." The old military doctor commanded again without any hesitation.
Immediately, a small knife was handed to the old military doctor's hand.
Despite the slightly hot feeling, the old military doctor steadily extended the blade towards the wound.
Like a hot knife cutting through butter, the blade penetrated smoothly into the wound. The newly burned blade even caused bursts of green smoke to rise from the surrounding flesh and blood.
The old military doctor's hand was still as steady as an old dog. After touching the arrow, he quickly moved around it, then turned around in the flesh and blood, and picked out all the rotten flesh.
Even though the old military doctor's movements were already fluent, the operation of carrion digging still almost made the old general faint from pain. Streams of blood immediately poured out from the new wounds.
"Golden sore medicine!"
The old military doctor ordered while replacing the cold knife in his hand.
Before the old military doctor could finish his words, another military doctor standing beside the old general had already taken action, pouring half a bottle of golden sore medicine into the old general's wound for free.
The effect of the golden sore medicine is really good, almost stopping the bleeding.
However, the severe pain also caused veins to pop out on Old General Lian's head.
When everyone saw this, their hearts tightened, and they even wished the old general had fainted.
Only the old military doctor remained calm and stretched out his "sinful" knife again.
"Stop!" With a command, the golden sore medicine stopped pouring, and the steaming knife slowly penetrated into the wound from another direction.
Between the cuts and sores, a bloody hole as thick as a thumb appeared in front of everyone.
Taking a deep breath, the old military doctor held the arrow firmly with his left hand, and immediately ordered: "Steady, old general."
The soldiers on both sides immediately exerted their strength. The old military doctor immediately exerted force with his right hand and tilted the knife that was deep into the wound. The old military doctor followed with his right leg and retreated half a step. A huge arrow appeared in front of the old military doctor. hands.
Before he could rejoice, the old military doctor immediately shouted again: "Golden sore medicine!"
Without the slightest hesitation, almost at the same time that the old military doctor took half a step back, the military doctor who cooperated tacitly began to pour out the golden sore medicine.
"Gauze." Seeing that the golden sore medicine had begun to stop the bleeding, the old military doctor immediately ordered again.
Immediately, another person beside him took over the old military doctor's position and began to bandage the old general.
Putting down the arrows and knife in his hands, the old military doctor also sat aside and started panting.
The seemingly simple operation is actually the accumulation of decades of experience by the veteran military doctor, especially the "steady, accurate, and ruthless" knife at the end, which consumes too much of the veteran military doctor's energy.
There was no time to rest, so he drank a bowl of honey water, and the old military doctor stood up again.
Coming to the back of the old general, there is still an arrow waiting for the old military doctor's skill to rejuvenate.
Taking a deep breath, the old military doctor immediately put on the scissors again...
After some consistent operations, with a crisp "clang" sound, the last arrowhead was finally taken out.
At this time, the old military doctor was already soaked to the skin, teetering on the verge of collapsing on the ground.
Fortunately, the military doctor on the side caught the old military doctor quickly.
The old military doctor who used the knife was like this, and the old general who had been enduring the pain of cutting out the flesh was even more conceivable. Before I knew it, the cloth in the old general's mouth had turned into rags.
And from beginning to end, even though he was in terrible pain, the old general remained silent.
"Quickly, take off the old general's armor and let him lie down." The old military doctor quickly ordered, regardless of his own weakness.
After hearing the order, several military doctors also stepped forward and began to carefully remove the old general's armor. It's just that in the process, other wounds will inevitably be torn on the old general.
It's just that this pain is nothing to the old general at this time.
Soon, with the concerted efforts of everyone, the old general's armor was finally stripped off, and the wounds all over the old general's body were finally revealed in front of everyone.
Only then did everyone know what kind of life-and-death battle the old general had gone through.
Unknowingly, everyone in the tent was in tears.
With tears in their eyes, the military doctors carefully applied medicine and bandages to the old general. It took them almost another quarter of an hour to treat the old general's wounds.
At the same time, the old military doctor will also
The prescription was written down, and there were soldiers who came to cook the medicine with the prescription.
Looking at the old general who had been bandaged, the deputy general also breathed a sigh of relief, and then waved his hand and said: "Leave two people to take care of the old general, while the others are waiting outside the tent. Don't disturb the old general's rest."
"Yes." Seeing this, everyone agreed in a loud voice.
As everyone walked out of the tent, the deputy general held the old military doctor's hand tightly, and then lowered his voice and asked: "Is the old general okay?!"
Hearing this, the old military doctor did sigh deeply and said: "Old General Lian is a man in his late teens, and he was so seriously injured and lost too much blood. Can he survive it? Hey... .”
Glancing at General Lian Po who was lying unconscious on the bed, the old military doctor continued helplessly: "We have done everything we can. Whether and when we can wake up, we can only rely on the old general. A strong will."
When the deputy general heard this, his heart was heavy.
But what the deputy general didn't know was that even though he had said something very serious, the old military doctor still had one sentence that he had not said, and that was: Even if the old general wakes up, he may not live long.
Knowing that his personnel had been exhausted, the deputy general immediately arranged for Marching Sima Feige to report the old general's injury to Handan, and then he and the old military doctor waited in the Chinese military tent for the old general to wake up.
This wait lasted a whole day.
And the news that the old general was seriously injured could not be hidden from the army after all.
Fortunately, the military doctor repeatedly assured that the old general would wake up soon, so no accident occurred.
However, the morale of the army dropped visibly.
What's even more terrible is that according to the reports from the scouts, the Qin army has all crossed the barrier and is attacking in the direction of Xinzheng. At most, the Qin army will be approaching the city in the next day.
In other words, if the old general cannot wake up tonight, I am afraid that the deputy general will have no choice but to lead the army to evacuate towards Luocheng.
Rather than abandoning hundreds of thousands of troops in Xinzheng, it would be better to abandon Xinzheng to preserve our vitality.
But as a result, the decisive battle planned by King Zhao would fail in the first step.
Fortunately, just before the deputy general was about to order the entire army to evacuate, facing the afterglow of the setting sun, Old General Lian Po finally woke up...
