Chapter 2705 lack of medicine

The army came together.

Zhao Guogong is stationed 20 miles away from Anshi City. It's not because he has a big heart and has to station so close. It's because Anshicheng is now closed no matter how much he scolds. , then you can only besiege the city.

Man Bao followed the emperor here, and all the wounded soldiers were scattered in the rear city.

When Man Bao was assigned to his camp, he first got together with the general doctor and the students to give lectures, encouraged them, and talked with them about the current troubles and difficulties, and then took out a cloth bag.

She handed the bag to Zhou Liru and said, "Two pearls per person, not a lot, let's pass them on."

Everyone was stunned. After receiving the pearl, they were still stunned for a while. The two military doctors were the first to react, and immediately bowed down to salute, "Thank you for your reward."

This is a trophy, and it is rare. Unless they also rush into the city to rummage for things, military doctors are rarely able to get the spoils.

And often when they attacked the city, they were the busiest. From the beginning of the war to the end, their military doctors were busy, especially after the end, all the wounded soldiers were sent over.

How could they possibly go and grab the spoils of war with others?

They don't show up when they're robbing, let alone when it's time to share, generally they don't have a share.

The military doctor was very happy, even though there were only two pearls, but the value was comparable to their salary for three or four months.

Man Bao divided the things and encouraged them: "Do well, wait for the invasion of Anshi City, if there are still trophies, I and someone will ask for some."

Qi Bi He Li looked very generous, and General Ashina was also generous, but he was too serious. He did not take the spoils himself, nor did his soldiers take too much. Basically, they were sealed and handed over to the emperor.

Well, I don't know how generous Zhao Guogong is, but this time he is the chief executive.

Man Bao thought about it, and Zhou Liru said, "Little aunt, we are running out of medicinal materials."

Then everyone remembered the business and said, "Teacher, there are only two packs of Angelica sinensis, and there are not many medicinal materials to stop bleeding. Now they are attacking the city again, and they will only need more medicinal materials."

The casualties of the siege were high.

Man Bao frowned and asked, "Have you ever bought medicinal materials from a nearby city?"

Several people shook their heads together, and they had no money. This kind of thing is generally in charge of the logistics of the military, and they are only responsible for reporting.

Man Bao said, "I see, I'll go talk to the chief executive."

Man Bao went to find Duke Zhao.

When Zhao Guogong saw Zhou Man, he subconsciously raised a smile, and then thought of something, so he turned around and left without seeing her.

Man Bao hurriedly chased after him, "General Manager, Zhao Guogong, Zhao Shangshu..."

Man Bao caught up with the man, stopped him and said, "What are you running for?"

Zhao Guogong just saw her and smiled: "It's Lord Zhou, I was thinking about something, and I didn't pay attention for a while. Do you have something to do with me?"

"Is something wrong, haven't our medicinal materials been delivered yet?"

Zhao Guogong smiled slightly and nodded.

Man Bao frowned, without questioning his fault, and said directly: "Then you can ask the logistics to buy the medicinal materials nearby."

Zhao Guogong was stunned for a moment and then said, "Is there any medicinal herbs sold nearby?"

"We have captured so many cities, and there must be medicines in the drugstores."

When Zhao Guogong thought about it, he smiled and said, "Please also ask Lord Zhou to make a list."

Man Bao was already prepared, and took out a thick one-fold list from his sleeve and gave it to him, "I need all the herbs on it. I can buy as many as I have, and I will not limit it."

Zhao Guogong sighed and said: "There may not be so many. Many materials were brought with them when they left the city."

Grain, iron utensils, medicinal materials, and even salt and tea are all military supplies. They brought them with them when they retreated. Many large families and merchants fled after hearing the news. There are not many such materials in the military.

Man Bao said: "How much can I buy."

Zhao Guogong nodded and asked with a smile, "Master Zhou, how much medicine do you have?"

"It's not enough to support you in a siege battle, and the medicinal materials will not come again. Next time you bring down the wounded soldiers, I will have no medicine to stop the bleeding. You can only rely on needles and sutures, but you know, there is no medicine, just rely on this Seeing a way to stop the bleeding won't work."

Zhao Guogong pursed his lips and nodded, indicating that he understood.

Man Bao watched him leave, and finally scratched his head. He went back to the general doctor and the students to find them and said, "Everyone, go into the mountains and dig for medicinal herbs. What medicinal herbs are found, and the most important thing is the medicinal herbs to stop the bleeding."

The military doctor sighed, "If there are no hemostatic herbs, next time I can only use fire to stop bleeding and plant ash to stop bleeding."

This is what the army does when there is a shortage of medicine.

Man Bao did not refute and agreed.

Zhou Liru opened his mouth wide, "But didn't you say that using fire and plant ash to stop the bleeding will have serious sequelae?"

The former will hurt the muscles, bones and nerves, and the latter may make the wound worse.

Man Bao said, "Focus on the moment first."

At least it's better than letting people bleed all the time, which is also a no-brainer.

So instead of waiting for Bai Shan to find time, Man Bao went directly into the mountains to dig for herbs with a group of students and military doctors, as well as the soldiers who were instructed in the medical tent.

Not to mention, there are still quite a few herbs in the mountains. Originally, things in this world, even a very common weed, have the effect of stopping bleeding, but the effect is large or small.

Manbao basically refuses to come, and whatever it is, since he sees it, he will dig it first.

It's just that this fresh medicinal material has not been processed and processed, and its medicinal properties are far less than those that have been processed.

Every day, Zhao Guogong sent different people to the city gate of Anshi City to scold him. Sometimes he would have people start a siege battle, and they would retreat after consuming a wave of weapons and defenders.

However, siege warfare has always been unfavorable to the siege side, and its own casualties are greater.

Zhao Guogong stopped fighting after two fights. He and the emperor said, "Your Majesty, they have supplies. I'm afraid that the city won't be able to be attacked without being surrounded for two or three months."

The emperor said: "It's cold, we don't have that much time, and the logistics can't keep up. How long can we use the food we seized?"

Zhao Guogong whispered: "Twenty days."

The emperor pursed his lips and said, "If you can't attack by force, then outsmart it."

He said with deep eyes: "If we can't win it after half a month, then we will withdraw."

"His Majesty……"

It was more heartbreaking for the emperor to make this decision, but he had to do it, he couldn't invest too much in this war, and couldn't let this war have too much influence on Da Jin.

Wei Zhi, Liu Shangshu and others have already sent letters of admonition one after another.

The emperor frowned slightly, "Liu Hui said that the food, grass and medicinal materials have already been sent out, and they should have arrived half a month ago."

Zhao Guogong was also annoyed and had no idea what the logistics of the escort were doing.
