Chapter 170 Who can blame for bad luck?

"Father, this is inappropriate!" Li Jiancheng looked at Li Yuan and said solemnly. Li Yuan was the emperor, and once his mouth was opened, things would be difficult to have room for maneuver. Therefore, Li Jiancheng decided to discuss with Li Yuan and not to make this decision hastily. When Li Yuan issued an order to punish Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng had actually understood Li Yuan's intention. This is for Li Shimin's safety, first transfer Li Shimin back from the front line of Luoyang, and let Chen Yingding be in front, Xin'an and Hangu Pass, who can be guarded by the rules, but if he cannot, then give up Guandong.

Li Yuan raised his eyebrows and his eyebrows jumped up. It was obvious that Li Yuan was suppressing his anger: "Prince, what are your tricks?"

"My son hasn't thought about it yet...but..." Li Jiancheng thought for a while, and then said: "But the land of the 18 counties in Henan Prefecture is exchanged for thousands of Guanzhong athletes in blood. If you give up Guandong like this, what's the point of the death of these thousands of athletes!"

Xiao Yu bowed and said, "Your Highness, the old minister thought... the Tang Dynasty had been defeated in the battle of Luoyang, and the loss of 100,000 troops was lost. The most important thing now is to guard the gates of Hangu Pass and Tongguan. Hangu Pass is 480 miles away from Chang'an, and Tongguan is more than 300 miles away from Chang'an. Once the second pass falls, Wang Shichong's army will be fast for three days and slow for one day, and he will be able to reach the city of Chang'an. Your Majesty must make a quick decision..."

"Shut up!" Li Jiancheng interrupted Xiao Yu without hesitation and said, "Wang Shichong's army has not set off yet, and he must escape in a hurry. No matter how high-sounding he says, giving up Luoyang and Guandong is to escape, and he will be ridiculed by the world."

Li Yuan turned his head slowly and looked at Chen Shuda and Pei Ji. Pei Ji lowered his eyebrows and kept his eyes closed and said nothing.

Li Yuan turned to Feng Deyi and asked, "Feng Lun, you said!"

Feng Deyi raised his head and said: "I do not agree with giving up Kanto!"

A hint of joy appeared in Li Jiancheng's eyes.

Xiao Yu was furious: "Flavor."

Feng Deyi seemed to have not heard Xiao Yu's words and continued: "Your Highness the Prince is right. No matter how you are, you will be afraid of the enemy. If you lose the city and the land, you will run away, and you will be a coward."

Li Yuan stared at Feng Deyi with great interest. Li Jiancheng let out a long sigh, but Feng Deyi immediately spoke again: "I will not blame His Highness the King of Qin. After all, I have to bear the responsibility for the loss of 100,000 troops."

Xiao Yu was stunned and cursed: "Little Man--"

Feng Deyi was unmoved, and Dayi continued to say unceasingly: "Although His Highness of Qin is a prince, the prince and the common people are guilty of the same crime in the face of the law. The court's dignity is important, but the survival of the Tang Dynasty is even more important. It is not done by the ministers for the sake of temporary dignity."

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Slipped head--!"

Feng Deyi said: "I think whether to give up Guandong depends on two points. The first is that King Qin was defeated. In Luoyang, General Chen led the remnants of defeated generals, and whether Wang Shichong could be blocked; the second is whether Dou Jiande from Hebei will lead the troops westward, and whether the defense lines between Hangu Pass and Tongguan are stable...

At this moment, a voice came from outside the hall - an urgent report!

An officer of the left surveillance gate covered in rain ran to the hall in a panic and threw himself forward: "Anti-report... Kanto urgent report..."

Li Yuan, who was originally sitting on the imperial couch, stood up and stared at the left guard officer with his eyes.

The officer said anxiously: "Report to Your Majesty, the Left Supervision Gate learned the secret report that Dou Jiande from Hebei led an army of 300,000 to attack Xiangzhou. Xiangzhou was defeated and has now fallen..."

...

In the central tent of the Tang Army camp in Beimshan, Luoyang, heavy rain was like a pour. Looking at the sky-long rain, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief: "It's really God bless the Tang Dynasty. In such weather, Wang Shichong will definitely not be able to send troops, so we can get a rare opportunity to breathe."

Upon hearing this, a little smile appeared on the gloomy faces.

Only Chen Ying looked worried.

Looking at Chen Ying's abnormality, Li Shimin asked with a smile: "General Chen, is it that Gu said it wrong? This rain did not come well?"

"It's not good!" Chen Ying said lightly: "Although this rain came quickly and suddenly, it could delay Wang Shichong's use of troops and win a precious opportunity for our Tang army, but..."

Li Shimin asked nervously: "But what?"

"However, it will increase the casualties of our army!" Chen Ying explained patiently: "You are all veterans who have been in charge of troops for many years. You will definitely find a problem, that is, the soldiers injured in winter, especially those with external injuries. There are not many soldiers who are seriously injured. However, whenever the weather is hot or rainy, many wounded soldiers who were originally slightly injured and could recover in more than a month died... "

Chen Ying's words immediately attracted the attention of the generals in the big tent, especially Cheng Zhijie was the first to agree: "General Chen said very well. If you don't say it, I, Cheng, really can't remember it. I heard you say this today, that's true!"

Qin Qiong nodded, indicating that he was in line.

Li Shimin frowned and asked, "General Chen, what is the reason for this?"

"This is because there is something called bacteria on the wound!" Chen Ying looked at the generals with confusion and explained: "We cannot see this kind of bacteria with the naked eye, but this kind of thing likes warmth and humidity. In the rainy and high temperature seasons, it will breed quickly, causing the flesh of the wound to rot quickly..."

What Chen Ying said was the facts. The generals also knew that wounds of wounded soldiers were prone to rot in summer, and in winter, they generally did not get inflammation, infection and rot infection in winter.

Li Shimin said: "I didn't expect General Chen to be so knowledgeable and talented!"

Chen Ying explained: "Haha... This is what Chen Ying saw from an isolated medical book!"

Li Shimin really had the attitude of breaking the casserole and asking to the end, and then asked: "What kind of medical book is it?"

As the saying goes, a lie must be filled with countless lies. Chen Ying knew very limited ancient medical books, even the medical books lost in later generations may not be missing in this era.

Because there were a large number of books repaired during the Yang Guang period, Chang'an surrendered without fighting and was not affected by the war at all. At the turn of the Sui and Tang dynasties, these books were greatly protected. For example, Hua Tuo's "Qingnang Jing", "Zhongzang Jing", "Medical Heart Prescription", and "Acupuncture Jing" were not lost during the Sui Dynasty. After the Anshi Rebellion and the Huang Chao Rebellion, these precious soul treasures were lost in the war.

What Chen Ying couldn't be sure of was that he compiled an ancient book's name. If Li Shimin returned to Chang'an and sent it out to search, once he found that it was inconsistent with what Chen Ying said, Chen Ying would be very happy. After thinking about it, Chen Ying had to bite the bullet and said, "This book is called "Compendium of Materia Medica". The author is said to be a man named Li Shizhen, who is from Qichun, Qizhou."

Li Shimin thought about it and was sure that he had never heard of the medical book "Compendium of Materia Medica". He was present at the generals. Although most of them knew a little about it, they also didn't know much about medical books. Li Shimin asked everyone, including the knowledgeable and talented Li Xiuning, who had never heard of this book.

Li Xiuning looked at Chen Ying in confusion and said, "General Chen, is there any record in this medical book? How to prevent it?"

"It's a little recorded that only Chen Ying has not been able to find a drug called penicillin yet!" Chen Ying said regretfully: "If you can find Artemisia annua, you can extract artemisinin and use it to treat wounds!"

In fact, Chen Ying vaguely remembered that when he saw the penicillin encyclopedia in later generations, he once read that as early as the Tang Dynasty, the tailor of Chang'an City would mess with green hair on his fingers cut by scissors to help the wound heal, because the substance produced by green hair (penicillin bacteria) has a bactericidal effect, which means that people first used penicillin.

But Chen Ying is not a doctor. He dared not use drugs that have not been tested on these wounded soldiers. If there are sequelae or wound infection, Chen Ying will not cure the disease and save the patient, but will murder it.

Of course, Chen Ying was the first to order the Right Guard to lead the Xun Mansions to escort Chen Huairen and Chen Huairen's medical team to the Beijian Camp in Luoyang to treat the wounded soldiers.

At this time, the wounded soldiers in Beimeng Camp were already all over the ground. The less than 50,000 surviving Tang army was actually less than two-thirds of them were minor and serious wounded soldiers, and most of them were wounded by fire. These burns were also very difficult to heal in later generations. With this heavy rain, many wounded soldiers' wounds were soaked in rain, and their body temperature increased and their consciousness occurred. Chen Ying knew that this was a sign of inflammation of the wound.

The entire medical team has all surrendered to the tense rescue process. Only Chen Huairen, Zhao Yuanqiao and Li Chuqi, three doctors with relatively good medical skills, have begun to create penicillin with the help of Chen Ying.

However, time is tight now, Chen Ying has to treat dead horses as living horses.

He asked someone to make flour into dough cakes, but these dough cakes were not eaten, but placed in warmth. In a high-temperature and high humidity environment, three days later, thick green hair really grew on these dough cakes.

Chen Huairen was wearing a thick mask and carefully took off the thick green hair from the dough cake with tweezers and placed it in a clay pot. After working hard for more than an hour, he finally took off all the green hair from the dough cake.

Chen Huairen quickly ran out of the warm room with a small pot, came outside the house, quickly took off his mask, and gasped heavily.

Zhao Yuanqiao said unhappily, "It's so deadly. It smells so bad that it almost makes me faint. It's so disgusting!"

Li Chuqi asked carefully: "Master, can such a disgusting thing be cured?"

"Yes, sure!" Chen Huairen nodded solemnly and said, "General Chen will not be wrong!"

Zhao Yuanqiao looked at the disgusting Lu Luan and forced the stomach juice to roll in his stomach: "Master, if... we will kill the person!"

"That's because they are not lucky, who can blame me!" Chen Huairen said: "Let's go, try it out for a few seriously injured people!"
