11 Going north 1
Huang Youran agreed with Li Tianyang sending his own cadres out to help the patients in need of treatment in the disaster area.
It's just that he has some doubts, it is Li Tianyang who has just graduated from the Bengang Academy to send the students of medicine, agriculture, mathematics and other disciplines who have just graduated from the Bengang School, compared to more professional people, these fledgling young guys, may not be of much help to this operation.
In particular, Li Tianyang nominally said to himself, and the doctor with superb medical skills was to save one person if he could, but judging from Huang Youran's understanding of the various herbs prepared by Li Tianyang, he couldn't feel that Li Tianyang wanted to help the poor people.
On the contrary, Huang Youran felt that Li Tianyang's transfer of those doctors was more like to ensure the safety of this large-scale team from threats such as epidemics.
But even if he has such an idea, Huang Youran will not say it in front of Li Tianyang, now although he is the director of the Salesian Bureau, he is also loved by the villagers in the Hongmen team, but Huang Youran knows that he can have today's status and achievements, all thanks to Li Tianyang's cultivation.
If it weren't for Li Tianyang's persecution and cultivation at the beginning, there would not be Huang Youran's supernatural surgical skills today, let alone the several surgical books he was writing in his later years based on what he had learned, and there would not be the scene where he is now full of peach and plum fragrance.
Huang Youran is a person who knows how to repay his kindness, and he is also a person who knows Li Tianyang's character, and knows that behind the various measures issued by Li Tianyang, there are always many other ideas and purposes.
However, what Huang Youran didn't know was that not far away, on Hulu Island, where the Hongmen Sailor was stationed, more than 300 young sons of this sea ship and more than 700 soldiers from the first battalion of the Hongtang Sailor Whale Division converged and headed to the interior of the Ming Dynasty across the sea.
The convoy of five seagoing ships did not sail to Fujian, which was closer to Dayuan Island and where the Hongmen Qixintang merchants were more well distributed, but went north along the coast, crossed the coast of Zhejiang, and did not land by ship until the coast of Huai'an Province in Jiangsu Province.
At the dock where the fleet docked, Qi San, who had already received Li Tianyang's order, greeted them with his men who helped Hongmen recruit men, and went north with them.
After going to Huai'an Mansion, the team of more than 1,000 people was really too much even in the name of a caravan, so under the distribution of Qi San and the team leaders, the team was divided into ten teams of more than 100 people, and went north according to their own planned routes.
In the northbound route, there are those who go to Nanyang Prefecture, some who go to Runan Prefecture, and those who go a little farther to Pingyang Prefecture in Shanxi Province and the counties and townships adjacent to Shaanxi, and even a brave team goes directly to Xi'an Mansion in Shaanxi Province to understand the situation of the place up close.
Among these teams, except for the soldiers of the first battalion of the Hongtang Whale Department in Hongmen, who were ordered to protect the safety of the team members along the way, the other young people who had just come out of the Bengang Academy were carrying the tasks given by Li Tianyang.
The task is actually very simple, that is, let them understand the differences between the prefectures and counties in the Ming Territory by walking all the way to the prefectures and counties, which is similar to the internship reports of college students in later generations.
Along the way, the prosperous area of Jiangsu Province is naturally a lot, as the origin of China's lake silk, the wealth of Jiangsu Province can be as good as half of the Ming Dynasty, so although the Hongmen team members along the way also saw a lot of beggars and homeless people, but from its situation and scale it is also ordinary, the team members are not surprising.
As for prosperity, although Jilong Port has not been developed for a long time, after all, Quanzhou Yuegang is so close to Dayuan Island, and the young Hongmen disciples must have resistance to this prosperity, let alone how surprised they are.
But as they went further and further north, after leaving Xuzhou Mansion and reaching the border of Henan, the number of homeless people and beggars began to increase, and the injured and sick people who fell to the ground and died began to appear on the roadside, so that the team members along the way stopped from time to time for treatment.
The closer they got to the Shaanxi border, the more serious the situation became, and when the only team that entered Shaanxi stepped into the Shaanxi border, what appeared in front of them was a strong contrast between a piece of human purgatory and Zhumen's wine and meat.
The team of Wang Er's rebellion in northern Shaanxi became larger and larger, and Wang Jiayin of Fugu, Wang Zuo of Yichuan and others rose up to respond to Wang Er's call to capture the castle and capture the county, and the momentum became bigger and bigger.
It's just that these peasant armies are not deeply rooted, and in addition to coercing the people and plundering the property of the rich, they do not stay in the same place for much and wander around, which brings great trouble to the army of the Ming Dynasty to pursue and suppress the rebellion, and it is impossible to quell this rebellion for a long time.
Therefore, except for Xi'an and other important prefectures and counties in Shaanxi, which are relatively safe, other remote areas are already in a panic, and there are even people who are ready to move and want to join them.
Shaanxi is a place of many disasters and hardships can not survive, natural disasters are rampant for many years, and there was a plague last year, it should be the time when the government behaves, but the officials of the whole Shaanxi are ignoring the existence of natural disasters and forcibly levying taxes, which is a man-made disaster, and finally when the honest people rise up, it is also the time when the human tragedy is raging.
No wonder Qi San has always opposed the Hongmen team to set foot in the territory of Shaanxi, only when you enter Shaanxi, you will understand what it means to starve all over the wilderness and eat easily. Outside the counties and towns of Shaanxi, the huge refugee camps are full of hungry human frames, and the spiritless refugees are like walking corpses, lying or relying on a thousand strange things, the only thing that remains unchanged is their lifeless and dull eyes.
The Hongmen team members took out all the surplus food and herbs in their hands and subsidized the lonely refugees they saw along the way, but in the face of the huge refugee group, their little food was undoubtedly a drop in the bucket, and they couldn't help at all, and they couldn't save many people in the end.
On the contrary, because of their righteous deeds, the fact that they had food was exposed, almost caused a refugee riot in the hundreds, and everyone begged the Hongmen members to give them food, and finally turned into a fight, even a fight, from the scramble that you pushed and resisted.
If it weren't for the commander of the whale company who led the team, he saw the opportunity quickly, while covering the withdrawal of the team members, and at the same time hitting the refugees who were chasing them with sticks in his hands, and it took a lot of hardship to get everyone out of this refugee tide.
By the time many of the frightened team members turned their heads to look back at the team that had apparently fallen into a frenzy of fighting, venting their anger and grief, there were countless more dying corpses on the ground.
It turned out that there was a hungry refugee in the distance, who was lying on his stomach on a corpse that had not yet breathed, biting out strips of bloody flesh with his teeth and nails, chewing and swallowing with a hungry green light.
