Chapter 1: Into Egypt (10)
"Reopen the water source, send a platoon to guard, Zhao Fu and the sick soldiers under the marine battalion, all move out of the barracks, and let the first battalion of the guard regiment give them a battalion-level position downwind." Ding Yi rubbed his forehead, when he came, he really didn't expect this kind of situation, there was no such preparation at all, the communication fleet sent to Mugu Dushu had already set off, and he could only hope that Wang Yue and they would lead a large army to come over quickly, at least there were some medicines stored on the fleet.
For example, Banlangen, which was prepared for the three Marine Brigades guarding the exit from the Mediterranean Sea when they set out from Canton.
Of course, Ding Yi doesn't know if it's the right symptom, but it's better than being helpless now. Besides, there are dozens of young heirs of the Chinese medicine family who are with the fleet, so we have to see if they have any way.
"What about two black regiments and two Egyptian regiments?" Liu Tie has been in Yunyuan all these years, and he can be regarded as seeing his own ability clearly, so he would rather ask a few more words than carry it around, even if Ding Yi thinks that he is not level. He thought very clearly, as soon as Ding transferred him to his side, it was definitely not his military strategy, nor his internal affairs, nor his talent, but only one thing, that is, loyalty.
He grew up watching Ding Yi, so he didn't shy away from it, and said directly: "If you ignore it, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of these barbarian soldiers, but I'm afraid that after this matter, if you recruit again, there will be a gap." "The local Egyptians and blacks are not brainless, the Chinese soldiers have to deal with it, they don't care, who will join this foreign group in the future?
Ding nodded, this question should not be underestimated, but he said to Liu Tie: "First place the officers and soldiers of the Marine Battalion." I think about the Negro Regiment and the Egyptian Regiment again, if there are soldiers from the Negro Regiment and the Egyptian Regiment, I will ask. Just sue them, be patient, etc. The next batch will be their turn. ”
People's hearts are long, to say that Ding Yi is completely selfless, the truth is unlikely, the Chinese soldiers and foreign soldiers, in his heart, especially at this moment of resource shortage, immediately divided the high and low.
Wan An watched Liu Tie receive the order to go down on an errand from the side, but he had a plan: "Sir, the disciple has something to report." ”
"Say it. Who should the rules show them? Ding Yi sighed, he was not afraid of a strong enemy, even if thousands of Mamluk soldiers charged, facing the Arabian thoroughbred and Damascus steel scimitars, he led thirty horsemen, and dared to guard the flank of the troops. But diseases and tsunamis and the like, he is really helpless.
Wan An got permission and spoke: "Two black regiments and an Egyptian regiment. All moved into Suez City! If the people ask, teach them to confess to the poisoner, or not, teach them to live and die with the foreign soldiers! It is also good to give an account to the soldiers. When people die, the gentleman will die for them with the life of a city. How magnificent! ”
"You seem to have some truth in that." Ding Yi waved at Wan An and said to him. "Come here."
When he got closer, Ding stretched out his hand and slapped Wan An on the back of the head: "I will come up with this kind of bad idea in the future." Don't say anything, you have no power to restrain the chicken, and when the time comes, you should honestly receive the punishment, you should run in circles, you should be confined and confined, I don't know how to punish you, go down and ask Liu Zijian. ”
Wan An was slapped on the back of his head, but he was not embarrassed, touched the back of his head and said with a smile: "Mr. is the first to drink, but he has benefited a lot from teaching his disciples, and he knows that the present is the past!" ”
Ding Yizhen couldn't do anything about this, rolled his eyes and smiled bitterly: "You guy, you are a traitor with a white nose on the stage." ”
"Don't you know that if you throw these four regiments into the city, the local people who are digging the canal here will immediately break out? Don't do that, don't deliberately make things like this in order to please me. ”
Ding Yi stood up, put his hand on Wan An's shoulder, and said to him, "Look at me." ”
"The disciple doesn't dare." Wan An lowered his head, in this era, it is very impolite to stare at the other party directly, and he is also the division commander.
"Look at me!" Ding Yi raised his voice, so that Wan An shivered and had to raise his head.
"Wan Xunji, you can look down on yourself, this is your freedom." Ding Yi looked into Wan An's eyes and said to him very seriously, "But please don't despise Ding's disciple, never do this, my disciples, don't rely on pleasing others to seek a way to advancement, do you understand?" ”
"Disciple understands!" Wan An nodded vigorously.
Ding Yi let go of the hand that was pulling Wan An's shoulder, lifted up his robe and sat down: "The affairs of the black regiment and the Egyptian regiment will be handled by you." By the way, remember, whether it is a Marine battalion, a black regiment, or an Egyptian regiment, masks and gloves must be guaranteed for those who come into contact with them, and the subsequent decontamination must be strict. ”
"Yes!" Wan An did not sing the praises of virtue as usual this time, but after answering seriously, he retired on an errand.
Ding Yi shook his head, he didn't have confidence, such a statement could make Wan An change his mind, and from now on he would be a dignified person and do things. Some things are innate, character and personality, and are not so easy to turn around. What Ding Yiyi hopes is that Wan'an can consider things more comprehensively in the future.
"Young Master, does Young Master Xunji have a way to deal with this plague?" Wen Fat Man is still straightforward, although he is very particular about his title, he still has a question, which is also the fundamental reason why Ding Yi likes to let him stay by his side.
Listening to Fat Wen's question, Ding laughed: "How do I know?" ”
"Then you taught him to do this errand?" Wen Fatzi didn't understand.
Ding Yi stroked the short beard under his chin and said to Wen Fatzi: "Whether there is a way or not, the problem always has to be solved, it always has to be dealt with, and it is impossible to throw the people of the four regiments in such a large barracks and wait for death." He had to make a choice, how to choose, how to decide, instead of deliberately coming up with some extreme ideas in order to please me. Whether you have the ability or not, this is the litmus test. ”
Wan An didn't have any choice, he didn't decide to let the four regiments wait for death, nor did he decide what method to use to deal with them, he let the prisoners spend three days day and night, dug out a few irregular trenches and fortifications, and let the prisoners into the camp, lifted the soldiers of the black regiment and the Egyptian regiment who were still alive, stripped them all naked, scrubbed them with hot water, changed into clothes on the supply ship, and then put them in the trenches to stay.
Then Wan An gave an order, let the medic put on bulky rubber protective clothing and gas masks, go into the original barracks, get all the soldiers' first-aid kits, first-aid medicines stored in the infirmary, and remove the outer packaging of these drugs and burn them.
"It's ridiculous!" Liu Tie couldn't help but speak, although he knew that Wan An was not easy to match, but he couldn't stand it.
Listening to the report of the people below, he ran over to dissuade him: "Xun Ji snatched the medicine out, it's a great thing!" But these drugs were also transported from Huaxia with great manpower and material resources, so it is really not a wise move to waste them like this! ”
"Senior Brother Zijian wants to sue these soldiers of the Foreign Legion that there is medicine, but don't give it to them?" Wan An was not angry, but smiled and asked Liu Tie rhetorically. This can be regarded as Ding Yi's words, the change given to him, if before this, Wan An would not be so direct, he would deal with Liu Tie first in the spirit of not offending people, but he kept this matter in his heart.
Liu Tie was choked by him, and was stunned for a long time before he spoke: "But this medicine is for treating external injuries!" ”
Wan An didn't answer at all: "Even if this medicine is in Huaxia, is it worth a thousand gold?" ”
"Yes."
"Is it possible to live a man's life, so that those who were bound to die may have life?"
"That's right."
"When the soldiers of the Foreign Legion got the first aid kits, were they preached like this?"
"It should be, right? I was in Yunyuan at the time, and I didn't know too much, but I sent it to them, and the preciousness and importance must be talked about. ”
Wan An raised his hand to stop Liu Tie's words: "Are they dying now?" Now it is worth a thousand gold and can live a person's life, Senior Brother Zijian thinks that if he doesn't give it to them, this person is dead, can he swallow this breath? What do the people of Suez City think of us? It's spread out, and the black tribe over there is bound to the wood and bones, what do you think of us? ”
"This ...... But ......" Liu Tie was taken directly to the ditch by Wan An, and he was speechless for a while.
Wan An didn't have time to accompany him to pull it off, and said directly to the medical soldiers: "Injection, everyone injects a shot of penicillin, before the injection, I want to tell them, how precious this medicine is, Daming will not let the soldiers who serve Huaxia care, Mr. will not sit idly by and watch the sons and daughters under his command die, in order to save them, Mr. doesn't care at all, such a tube of medicine can't be exchanged for twenty cows in Huaxia!" ”
The director of the battalion headquarters health center of the first battalion of the guard regiment said to Wan An with a bitter face: "Wan Zhijun, there are five or six thousand people who survived, do skin tests one by one, and then see the results, and then injections, I can't wait for it!" "The health center of a battalion is only three or two hygienists for one doctor, and it is also because of the guard regiment that the health post of the first battalion is equipped with three doctors and one class of hygienists.
But two black regiments, two Egyptian regiments, lying in the trenches with gas, there were still 6,000 men.
Not to mention that the first battalion of the guard regiment is all veterans, and it is mostly no problem to be a battlefield rescuer, and all of them can be called for help.
One is the defense of the original four regiments and one battalion, and the hundreds of people who can still maintain the combat strength of the guard regiment and the marine battalion are in charge, where can they be extracted? Even the sailors on the destroyer have pieced together a company to assist in the defense, and if they are not attacked by a Mamluk, everyone will explain here.
Another, more important, was the bulky rubber protective suits and gas masks, which amounted to eighteen sets in all.
Do you want other people to come and defend themselves at the risk of being infected without protection?
"No need for skin test, direct injection, no need to ask for instructions, if there is a person who dies because of this, the student will bear it." Wan An gave the order very decisively, it was originally a consolation for these soldiers of the Foreign Legion before they died, and a measure to buy people's hearts, where did he care if he would die because of no skin test?
But this time, I don't know if Wan An is really very talented, or if the blind cat hit the dead mouse.
In short, the situation went in a direction that no one expected. (To be continued......)
