Chapter 525

Chen Cang! Baoji, also known as Baoji in later generations, is a famous important town with incomparably high walls.

It took the army three and a half days to reach Chencang from Chang'an city. Now Chencang has become a military important place. Starting first, Su dingfang has already hoarded a large amount of grain and built Chencang into a transit station for the army's logistics.

"The general has ordered that the whole army rest for half a day and start early tomorrow morning."

After arriving at Chencang, Li Jing rarely showed kindness. He asked a group of soldiers to correct in Chencang for half a day and continue to set out early tomorrow morning.

"Good!"

"Thank you, general!" there were bursts of cheers from the army immediately. It was natural that the soldiers should not exert too much force when they first marched. Li Jing naturally knew this truth, so he ordered the repair.

"Hoo!"

Merton slipped slowly from the back of the Jedi shadow. As soon as he touched the ground, he couldn't help sighing. He had been on his horse for three and a half days. Although he could ride a horse, his legs were sore for such a long time.

"It's good for you to get used to it. It's just like riding a horse for a long time. When you arrive in Lanzhou, it's estimated that you'll get used to it and don't have to suffer any more." Xue Rengui held Merton aside.

Merton nodded. In fact, he could still take a carriage. However, since it was a March and war, and after Cheng Yaojin's advice, Merton quickly put down the idea. At this time, he could be lazy, but if he really went to the battlefield, the enemy would not give him a chance to be lazy.

Merton nodded and ordered, "repair on site."

At this moment, there is no need to set up a stronghold. Soon, all tents have been installed. Chencang county magistrate has long received a military order and prepared food for the army in advance.

Merton ate up the food in his hands in three or two. As soon as he put down his dishes and chopsticks, he heard the sound of horse hoofs approaching,

A herald came quickly, dismounted and hugged his fist and said, "Lord sacrifice, General Li has an order. Please go to the Chinese army to discuss military affairs."

"I'll come now."

Merton didn't hesitate at the moment, and immediately turned over and mounted his horse to follow the messenger.

Chencang County Yamen has already become Li Jing's office. As for Chencang county magistrate, he must have his own place.

"See you generals!" Merton entered Chencang County Yamen and found that Li Jing was already sitting in the main position, and the other generals of the five guards had arrived.

"Ink offering wine is late!" Hou Junji said sarcastically when he saw Merton coming in.

Merton said humbly: "the firearm supervisor is the palace army. He finally arrived in Chencang. At the moment, as soon as he received the general's order, the boy came immediately without any delay."

Cheng Yaojin said with a thick voice, "this is not a drumming point. Aren't we just here?"

His left leader guard walked in front of the firearm prison, but Merton took a quick step before he sat down.

Li Jing waved his big hand and said, "this is just a routine military discussion. There are not so many rigid rules. However, if someone dares not to arrive in the future, don't blame the general for being unkind."

"Remember, boy." Merton said positively.

Other generals also looked solemn. Li Jing's words seemed to warn Merton again. In fact, they were beating them.

Not to mention other generals, even Hou Junji and Cheng Yaojin can't help lowering their heads. This is the army. If they dare to disobey the military order, Li Jing will order them to be beheaded. Even if it comes to the court, even Li Shimin has nothing to say.

"Well, let's start the discussion." Li Jing said positively.

Everyone else looked straight and sat upright.

"There are 350 miles from Chang'an city to Chencang. Thanks to the convenience of brick road, the army has finished walking in only three and a half days. According to this calculation, we can reach Lanzhou in more than ten days." Li Jing said with a smile, which is an extremely difficult speed. The March is so smooth, which is why Li Jing has the confidence to order the repair.

"I've traveled hundreds of miles a day. I've been in war all my life. I've never had such a fast marching speed." Cheng Yaojin smacked his tongue. Ordinary marching is not 70 or 80 miles at most, unless it's a cavalry. Who has experienced the speed of traveling hundreds of miles a day.

Other generals couldn't help nodding. It was the baggage that dragged down the speed of the army in marching and fighting, and the brick road just solved this. In addition, even if it was windy and rainy, the brick road could still walk without error. This is the reason why Li Jing dared to guarantee to arrive in Lanzhou in more than ten days.

The last time a large army marched on Turks in the north, it arrived at Jiuyuan county from Chang'an city. The army walked for a full month. During this period, it was snowy. Li Jing immediately abandoned his luggage, rode lightly and attacked with a strange move. It was only a narrow victory.

Merton looked around innocently. Is it fast to travel hundreds of miles a day? From the perspective of future generations, traveling hundreds of miles a day is a turtle speed. He just can't stand the speed of this era, which makes the Mohist school create a fast passenger transport business.

Seeing Merton's expression, Li Jing couldn't help saying, "of course, this speed can't match. General Su's arrival in Lanzhou in three days can't match the passenger transport from Chang'an to Luoyang in Mojia village."

In an instant, everyone's attention was focused on Merton. In the final analysis, Su dingfang's brilliant performance in this western expedition was based on the rapid development of Mojia village, and even the creative use of the clever plan of transporting food and grass day and night. It can be imagined that as long as Su dingfang did not make mistakes in this western expedition, this alone is a great achievement, A logistics officer escorting grain and grass has made such contributions before the war. How can he not make the generals jealous.

"The general's praise is absurd. The boy just came up with an idea. The general's real hard work and high achievement is to coordinate the whole army." Merton said shyly.

"Don't be modest in offering wine to mo. in the army, work is work, and it's too much. No one can take your credit. Just relying on doctors to teach first aid in the army is a great skill." Li Jing looked at Mo Dun with satisfaction.

The generals nodded with satisfaction. They were in a meeting at the moment, and the children of doctors in the army were constantly teaching the soldiers the method of first aid. In the future, fighting together will certainly save the lives of countless soldiers.

Merton had an idea and said, "look at the boy, it's inevitable to March and fight. Those who need medical treatment most. I don't know if you can make a suggestion here."

Li Jing laughed and said, "it's rumored that Mohist's plan is worth thousands of gold. We can't wait for it."

Merton said shyly, "boy wants to promote the cooperation between doctors and strategists."

"Doctors and soldiers cooperate." the generals frowned.

Cheng Yaojin said carelessly, "now doctors' children fight with the army. Isn't that the cooperation between doctors and soldiers?"

Merton shook his head and said, "general Cheng's words are reasonable, but they are only superficial cooperation. What the boy suggests is more in-depth cooperation between strategists and doctors."

Li Jing immediately said curiously, "how do you say that?"

Merton arched his hand and said, "I believe you have all seen the doctors in Merton hospital. Most of these doctors are ordinary people. They are weak. If they travel long distances, they may be difficult to follow. Moreover, the number is small. Once there are too many wounded, it may be difficult to be busy."

Li Jing nodded slowly.

"Boy, I heard that there are doctors in the army," Merton said.

Cheng Yaojin waved his big hand and said, "don't mention those rammed goods. Six or seven of the ten wounded soldiers have been cured. If I'm injured, I must be cured by the children of the doctor. Those rammed goods don't want to get close to me."

The generals also nodded with deep resentment. Obviously, they also have deep resentment against the doctors in the army, which is also the reason why the children of doctors are very popular in the army.

Merton nodded: "that's right. The boy advocates military medical cooperation. Since the ability of military doctors is low, why not select some literate good family children from the army and give them to doctors for training. The boy knows that in Quchi square, doctors are going to set up a medical school to train doctors' children. Why don't soldiers take advantage of this east wind to train their own medical soldiers."

"Medic?" Li Jing and others were stunned when they heard this strange term.

Merton explained: "medical soldiers are specialized in treating wounded soldiers. They fight with the army. They are doctors in peacetime, soldiers in wartime, and soldiers and doctors in one."

"Integration of soldiers and doctors." the eyes of the people suddenly brightened. In this way, it will not only solve the low level of military doctors, but also treat the wounded as much as possible.

"OK, that's a wonderful plan." Cheng Yaojin patted his thigh. Although the children of doctors are good, they are not soldiers and will inevitably be difficult to use. If the military can train its own medical soldiers, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds.

"Well, I'll write a memorial to your majesty and ask your majesty for the establishment of medical soldiers." Li Jingshuang said quickly. This time, when the children of doctors enter the army, the generals have seen the role of doctors in stabilizing the morale of the army and will not refuse.

"It's a pity that the medical school is just a scratch, but this western expedition can't use such a clever plan." Duan Zhixuan sighed.

Merton smiled and said, "that's not necessarily true. Although the medical school is just a grass-roots creation, it's naturally impossible to train medical soldiers now, but aren't there a group of good doctors in the army now?"

Li Jing said with a pause in his arm, "the meaning of ink offering wine is to let these doctors' children help train a group of medical soldiers in the army."

"Yes, now all the good doctors in the Mexican hospital for treating trauma are in the army. Why should the general give up close and seek far? If a good doctor teaches ten medical soldiers, hundreds of medical soldiers can be added in the army immediately. When the war is over, send these hundreds of medical soldiers to the Mexican hospital for training, and the team of medical soldiers has become." Merton said.

When they heard the speech, they were immediately amazed. Li Jing sighed: "it's said that the word of the MOH family is worth thousands of gold. In my opinion, it's not empty at all. Mohou's plan will certainly enable thousands of soldiers to survive. I thank mohou for thousands of generals."

Merton hurriedly said, "General Li flattered me. Now the firearm supervisor also belongs to the strategist. Since the boy has joined the strategist, he naturally considers it wholeheartedly."

Suddenly, all the generals looked at Merton more softly. Even Hou Junji had to admit that Merton's plan was ten times better than recruiting doctors' children into the army.

The people discussed for a while and arranged the affairs among the generals before they dispersed.
