Chapter 130 The flesh and bones of the living dead(1/2)
(Everyone is very proud. After 500 monthly tickets, Muzi also did what he said. If you add two updates, you will get the sixth update later!)
It takes more than 1,200 miles from Bashang to Liyang.
At this time, the Yellow River was frozen in winter and there was no way to take a boat by water. Zhang Chao and Qin Gan could only ride a horse all the way. Change horses and don’t change people, and they traveled day and night. Zhang Chao’s riding skills were still average, and they were almost disbanded along the way.
But in order to arrive at Li Yang earlier to save his father, Zhang Chao could only grit his teeth and endure it. After a few days, the sides of his thighs had been worn out, and his face, hands and feet were frostbitten.
It took Qin Gan back to Chang'an from Liyang, only three days and three nights. Zhang Chao followed Qin Gan to Liyang and rushed to Liyang with all his might. There was also a horse from the post station, but it took him five days and five nights to arrive.
When he arrived in Liyang, Zhang Chao could no longer dismount himself.
"Hurry, where is my dad? Help me over."
Qin Gan was so tired, but he was still insisting at this time. He helped Zhang Chao off his horse and called a few soldiers. "Come here, come with me with him on your back."
In the Lizhou General Administration, Qin Qiong was still accompanying Zhang Tieqin, and Li Shiji and Cheng Yaojin and other generals were also there. In the past few days, Cheng Yaojin Luo Shixin and others have launched a large-scale move and led their troops to completely sweep the vicinity of Liyang. The rebels in Hebei in the territory have been killed and flee far away.
"Shubao, how are Brother Tie Gun?" Li Shiji came in.
"I couldn't get enough to burn. I haven't woken up for a day and a night. The doctor said it might be today."
"Why haven't Sanlang arrived yet?"
As he was talking, a noise came from outside.
Uncle Qin stood up and shouted angrily, "Who is making noise outside the tent? Call it out!"
"General, it's me, I'm here to bring Saburo."
Qin Gan walked in tiredly with his legs crossed, and a soldier behind him was carrying Zhang Chao on his back.
"Sanlang, come here quickly."
Qin Qiong saw Zhang Chao covered in wind, frost and dust, and hurriedly said.
Zhang Chao didn't care about other etiquette at this time and said, "Let me down." As soon as he got off the ground, Zhang Chao almost knelt on the ground, his legs were in unbearable pain and he couldn't even use any force.
Qin Qiong hurriedly helped him to the bed.
On the hospital bed, my father was unconscious and his high fever did not subside.
"Give me a cup of warm water."
"Quickly, go get water."
Zhang Chao carefully checked his father's condition and was already very seriously infected. He didn't know if the cephalosporin is useful now, but he could only try it.
Zhang Chao took off his burden and took out the medicine box from it.
At this time, the water had been sent in. Zhang Chao took the cephalosporin and then fed it to his father.
"Sanlang, what is this?"
Qin Gan said on the side, "Sanlang said this is a magic medicine to treat Uncle Zhang's injury."
Li Shiji and other generals were just stunned. Old Tiejian was like this, and there were magical medicines that could bring back the dead? But everyone couldn't bear to interrupt Zhang Chao. After all, so many doctors had seen it, and they all said that Old Tiejian was no longer helpful. Let Sanlang try it, it can be regarded as the filial piety of the son of man.
After taking cephalosporin for my father, Zhang Chao checked his father's wound again.
The wound has been cleaned, but the effect is not good.
He took out the iodine wine and cleaned his father's wound again, then used Yunnan Baiyao and then applied gauze.
From beginning to end, the elders just watched and let Zhang Chao take action.
No one believed that Zhang Chao really had any magic pill that could pull back the old iron spear that had already stepped into the gate of hell.
"Sanlang, you have worked hard, at least you finally arrived. Please accompany Brother Tieqin. It would be a waste of your father and son if you are by his side."
Zhang Chao didn't know how effective the medicine was, and he didn't want to explain it more at this time.
He nodded.
Li Shiji said, "Let Sanlang be here alone to accompany Lao Tiejian. Let's discuss how to kill those rebels!"
After Qin Qiong and others left, only Zhang Chao and his father were left in the tent.
Sitting beside the bed, I felt very distressed when I looked at my father. From later generations to the Tang Dynasty, if I hadn't been to my father, I might have frozen to death on the first day.
"Dad, you will definitely get better."
Zhang Chao sat there and guarded his father, but he was too tired. He traveled for several days and nights, and almost only rested for a short while every day, and took a nap when riding on the horse. Now, as soon as he relaxed, he quickly fell asleep.
"water."
"I want to drink water."
While sleeping, Zhang Chao heard a voice talking intermittently, and then woke up suddenly.
Opening his eyes, Zhang Chao saw his father.
My father was still closing his eyes, but his mouth was opening and closing.
"water"
My father spoke. Although he was still half unconscious and half awake, he was able to speak, which means he had passed the most dangerous time.
Zhang Chao reached out to touch his father's forehead, and it was indeed not that hot. Oh my God, the medicine worked.
"Dad, I'll pour you water."
Zhang Chao was so excited that tears came out. He hurriedly went to pour water, but the water was already cold.
"Come on, get me water."
Zhang Chao got up, ran to the door and shouted outside.
A few soldiers came immediately, all of them were Qin Qiong's servants.
"Sanlang."
"Go and get me warm water. Is there any honey? It's better to add some honey. Also, go report to my adoptive father and say my father is awake."
"Uncle Zhang wakes up, I will be able to report to Duke Yi immediately." Several servants were also shocked, and they never expected that their father would wake up.
Qin Qiong, who was studying how to send troops with Li Shiji and others, heard the report and immediately said, "I'm awakened. I'll go there first, and you will continue the military discussion."
Li Shiji slapped the table and said, "I'll discuss a bird, go and see the old iron spear first."
When everyone arrived at the ward, Zhang Chao had already fed his father honey water. After drinking the water, his father fell asleep.
At first, Qin Qiong and others thought it was just Zhang Chao who reported the military information, but the doctor who took the lead had already checked it. At this time, the old man was shocked.
"It's really incredible. I've actually been rescued, my fever began to fade, and my breathing has stabilized. Brother is asleep!"
"What? Rescued, really?"
The generals have been through the battlefield for a long time and have seen too many wound infections. At the level of the old iron spear, they are almost bound to die and have no way to save them.
The doctors all said they could not hold on to it today, but in just half a day, the doctor actually said they had saved it.
"It has not been completely healed yet, but the injury is relieving. This is a good thing. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be cured." The old man has been in medicine for countless years and is an expert in trauma infection, but he has never seen such a thing.
"This little gentleman, I wonder what kind of magic medicine you used for this brother, can you tell me one or two?"
Zhang Chao had just slept for a while, and his eyes were red, but he was very excited.
After hearing the doctor's question, he was also a little embarrassed and didn't know how to talk about it.
"I am abrupt, and such a magic medicine is certainly a secret that is not passed on." The old man said with regret that no matter what industry it is in this era, some of his skills will be kept strictly confidential and will not be easily passed on. Without patent protection, once it is leaked, it will no longer be exclusive.
This is true for craftsmen, even doctors.
Many doctors have benefited from one or two folk remedies and secret medicines for generations.
"Doctor, Brother Iron Gun is really rescued?" Qin Qiong was still a little confused.
He came to the bed in person and checked it. His pulse was stable, his breathing was stable, and he was not that hot. It was indeed a sign of improvement.
The generals such as Li Shiji were also shocked.
"Sanlang, I didn't expect you to have such a magical pill." Li Shiji exclaimed, "Uncle has a ruthless request. There are many wounded soldiers in the military camp, many of whom were defeated soldiers who retreated during the previous few battles. Many were injured, many of them were trauma and fever like Brother Iron Gun, and many died. I wonder if Sanlang could save them too?"
"Sanlang, is that magic medicine still there?"
Faced with Li Shiji's request, Zhang Chao was also a little helpless.
Of course, he still has some medicines to treat infection, but not many of them. They are gone after using them. Besides, my father has not yet recovered.
But Li Shiji asked, but Zhang Chao couldn't completely refuse.
He thought about it and kept the medicines such as cephalosporins, and the use of this medicine was a little less. But he was not unable to help. At least he also knew some simple first aid knowledge, such as wound debridement, seams and wounds.
Seeing that my father was still sleeping, Zhang Chao said, "That medicine was left to me by my master, Master Sanzang, and I don't know how to prepare it. But I can go and take a look, maybe I can exert some effort."
I heard that this magic medicine was left to Zhang Chao by Master Sanzang, and Zhang Chao did not know how to use this prescription. The white-haired doctor couldn't help but sighed, still a little bit doubtful.
Li Shiji and others also felt it was a pity.
Lizhou City is now the base camp for the Tang Dynasty to pacify the Hebei Rebellion, and Youzhou to the north are the only two remaining lands of the Tang Dynasty in Hebei.
The Tang army's successive defeats in the past six months, especially the several major defeats of Li Shentong, Li Xiaochang, Luo Yi and others, caused heavy losses to the Tang army. A large number of defeated soldiers scattered into various places, many of which scattered to Liyang.
Because of Li Shimin's order, Li Shiji was able to withdraw from the quagmire battlefield in Shenzhou in advance and concentrate on consolidating the Liyang base camp. He gathered defeated troops here, strengthened defense, and guarded the gateway from Hebei to the Central Plains for the Tang Dynasty.
