Zhe Keda followed Han Gang out of the field hospital, looked up at the sky, and it was already a branch on the moon.

It took Han Gang and his entourage nearly two hours to conclude their inspection of the hospital, which was much longer than previously expected.

"I can't think of this time." Zhe Keda touched his cooing belly and whispered, complaining a little.

Huang Sheng also whispered: "That's the Privy Benevolence." If it's just a few glances, take a walk. I don't want it for a quarter of an hour. ”

Zhe Keda nodded. The wounded and sick in the hospital were too enthusiastic, and everyone wanted to be seen and greeted by Han Gang. And Han Gang also tried his best to meet their requests, so he spent a long time in the hospital.

Even if Wu Qi is reborn, with his kindness of sucking carbuncles for soldiers, he will never be able to win the respect of the soldiers like Han Gang - 'Those who have disease will be sucked by them', even the old woman knows that it is for them to die, but Han Gang is trying his best to seek life for the soldiers. Even in order to prevent excessive casualties, it is always necessary to avoid engaging the enemy.

The coach is so loved, why can't he win the battle?

But Han Gang's face was gloomy at the moment, like night. This made both Zhe Keda and Huang Sheng try to avoid speaking loudly.

Huang Sheng followed Han Gang's line of sight, and in the corner of the hospital, several stretchers were lifted onto two carts, and then drove towards the Hutuo River wharf on the south side of the camp.

He sighed secretly in his heart, no wonder his benefactor's mood was so bad.

At present, the number of troops under the city of Daizhou is close to 30,000, but because military operations such as siege have not yet begun, the scout rangers outside are very restrained, and the proportion of wounded and sick is about one percent. The number of wounded and sick in this field hospital on the front line is just over 200.

Among them, they are basically lightly injured people who can recover quickly, and the real serious patients will be sent to Xinkou Village, where the rear hospital is located.

It's not that the level of medical care in the rear is high - there may be a difference between zero and one, but there is really no big difference between three and four - but that these seriously ill and seriously wounded will not affect morale at the front.

In the process of transporting to the rear, due to the bumpy road, it was necessary to take a boat first, and then turn to a railroad carriage, and many wounded and sick people could not survive to arrive at Xinkou Village. Even if you do, it's hard to live long.

Several people are sent away like this every day, but some of them always arrive at their destination with their heads covered and their faces covered. This is a very ruthless approach, but in the army, it is impossible not to harden one's heart and not to be in charge of the army, which is exactly what he said.

Even Han Gang has a great reputation, but it is impossible for him to improve the medical level of this era much. What can be done is to start with the hygiene management aspect and prevent the spread of the disease in the barracks.

But in addition, those serious external injuries, internal injuries, and some incurable diseases, Han Gang could only watch the patients suffer on the bed, watching them die step by step, but there was no way.

When these seriously injured people left, as long as they saw Han Gang, they would become very quiet. Han Gang also stayed with them the longest. Even though they all knew that Han Gang was not skilled in medicine, being cared for by the disciples of the Medicine King was like going to a temple where the magic was burned, and they could always feel a little more at ease.

After following Han Gang's side for a long time, Huang Sheng became more and more aware of Han Gang's concern for ordinary people, which was not the condescending 'benevolence' of ordinary scholars, but real attention. Let the expectations of those who trust them be disappointed, how can the mood be good?

Han Gang was in a heavy mood, and Huang Sheng and Zhi Keda only dared to exchange a few words in a whisper, until they heard a long sigh, and then saw Han Gang go to the corner of the hospital. There was a separate area where the wounded and sick of the captives were kept. Han Gang came out of the main ward and went there.

This time, the number of prisoners was quite large, more than 1,000, but the number of seriously wounded was very small, even if it was lightly wounded. An army that had just experienced a crushing defeat was again taken prisoner, and the number of wounded turned out to be less than a hundred.

If the teams that cleaned the battlefield and swept away the remnants of the enemy could be lighter, in fact, there should be more wounded. But for these robbers, what they have seen and heard all the way from Taiyuan, there is no one in the whole army who does not hate them to the core. If it is a healthy prisoner of war who can walk and run, it is indeed inconvenient to start, but those wounded who cannot walk, no one will have the patience to get them back to the camp, and they will only come back with a lighter head.

Escaping death made these captives have a deep expectation and joy in fear when they saw Han Gang. Even after Han Gang's visit, the wounded of the Liao army all came down to bow down to him.

Among these wounded, the most devout was a noble man from a small clan on the Xijing Road, who was also the chief general of the clan's leading army. This person was not lightly injured, and his whole body was stitched with many stitches, and it was really lucky that the soldiers who were not cleaned up on the battlefield were troublesome and cut their heads and came back to make a difference, and the bandages on their bodies were dyed red when they came down.

It's just that Han Gang just asked people to help him up, but he didn't say goodbye.

"This generation burned, killed, and plundered in our country, and it is really not a pity to die. Among them, the chief was even punished by the canonical punishment to comfort the dead. After Han Gang came out of the prisoner of war ward, he said, "But I can't remember that my Chinese people fell into the hands of thieves, and without these robbers, we can't get them back." I had to spare their lives, and I had to save as much as I could."

Huang Sheng had a feeling that Han Gang's words were not so much explaining to his staff as to himself, as if he was trying to convince himself. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so chattering.

Han Gang actually really wanted to cut down these blood-indebted robbers in the Jingguan, at least he had to learn how to deal with the natives of Jiaozhi, but instead of cutting off his toes, he cut off his fingers, so as not to make them invade the country again in the future.

The crimes committed by the Khitans in the two places of the Xin Dynasty were better than the Jiaozhi army that ravaged Guangxi at the beginning. It's just that there are a large number of people who have been taken captive this time, and he can't directly fight him to say that he will destroy the country and the Yi clan like he did in Jiaozhi, so he can only leave a little capital and exchange people back.

"Ransom with money is a matter, and the court will not be reluctant to pay this money. But it is a little bit to be able to save a little. It would be better to exchange captives. ”

Han Gang felt that Yelu Yixin should not let go of this opportunity to buy people's hearts. The silver silk that could be credited with a million taels of silver could be used on the blade to buy people from the tribes who had Han'er in their hands, and then exchange them for captured warriors.

"Of course, if these are not enough, Wuzhou can also return it."

Ignoring the surprised gazes of his staff, Han Gang continued.

"It's only been a few months since the Liao thieves entered the Kou, and the two states of Xin and Dai are already devastated. The loss is not yet calculable, and the halving of the account is already the most optimistic estimate. ”

Although I don't know how much Lu Dao has lost, the halving of the hukou is indeed the most optimistic projection, and if you are pessimistic, it would be good to have a third of it back.

"All taxes must be exempted for at least three years. After more than ten or twenty years, he can barely return to the old view. It's a good thing to be able to find more dingkou to come back. After two years of rebuilding the household registration, the atmosphere inside the Daizhou Yamen will also look better. ”

Every leap year, the local government will revise the household register.

This time, Daizhou was robbed, not only to recreate the household registration, but also to change the field registration to maintain order in Daizhou in the future. It's just that in this way, the task of the next Daizhou governor will be very heavy, and it can be said that it is extremely difficult.

The reason why the local government was able to convey the decree was that it relied on the protection of the armor at each level, from the state to the county to the township. The officials who give orders are easy to appoint, but the actual executors, the various officials in the prefectures and counties, the baozheng, the first chief, and the scribes in the townships, cannot be transferred from Beijing or other places.

Now these officials, like the common people, there is not much left, and without their help, the decree of the governor cannot even be conveyed to the township.

In addition to Daizhou, the situation in Xinzhou is similar. And the places where Taiyuan Mansion was invaded by the Liao army were also similar to Daizhou and Xinzhou. Villages were destroyed, people were slaughtered, and belongings and children were looted.

The entire northeastern part of the river was completely destroyed, and it could not be restored for decades.

How can this make Han Gang's mood good?

The only thing that can make people feel good may be the Liao army in Daizhou City.

……………………

In the barren Daizhou City, Xiao Shisan's mood will only get worse.

Xiao 13 had already received a notice from Nanking Road, claiming that he had reached a peace agreement with the Southern Dynasty in recent days, and that the envoys to the peace talks would soon return from Kaifeng.

can put down Yelu Yixin's handwritten letter, and then look up at the city of Daizhou, and a ridiculous feeling comes to mind.

But everyone knows that if the strength of the two sides cannot maintain the most basic balance, no matter what peace negotiation, it is just a piece of used waste paper.

Da Liao could no longer fight, otherwise the envoys of the peace talks would not have agreed to such humiliating conditions. The six states of Xiping lost their teachers and abandoned their land, and what they got back was only a one-time million silver silks.

And that was an agreement reached before the Hedong fiasco, and now, the Song people will definitely not be willing to continue to implement it.

Opponents at home are gathering. His Royal Highness Shangfu can't be like the emperor, and he can naturally make the government and the opposition obey his orders. If he had the status of an emperor, things would not have turned out to be idle.

Although Yelu Yixin asked him to guard the city of Daizhou, this order was issued before the defeat, and it is now impossible to recover.

The only thing to be thankful for is that there is no major damage to the soldiers of their own family. At the same time, the little bit of heart that Shang's father sent to help didn't lose much. Except for the loss of some armor and horses, there were no other losses.

Compared with them, the casualties of the various subordinates of Xijing Province were much greater, and the battalion was full of complaints. In the pursuit of the Song army, they were the ones who suffered the heaviest casualties. And now they are naturally indispensable to call home.

The hearts of the people are all scattered, can these people still come in handy?
