Chapter 757: Ways to Overcome Altitude Sickness!
Chapter 757
"In this attack on the Zhang Zhung training camp, a total of 80 people were seriously injured, most of which were caused by the outbreak of Dayan Siboye. In addition, 30 people were slightly injured, and seven people died in battle, including those who died in battle. The two of them have already brought them back together. In addition, those who were seriously injured have also been cured after taking the elixir provided by Lord Hou."
Xu Keyi said.
Now beside Wang Chong, he is in charge of logistics.
"Master Hou, this time we beheaded more than 20,000 people, and the total damage is more than 120 people, and seven people died. It is really amazing."
"Yes! Wushangren's fighting power is really powerful!"
...
Hearing this number, everyone was amazed. With the number of Zhang Zhung training camps several times larger than his own, it is unbelievable that there are only more than one hundred casualties. If this battle loss ratio was told before the battle, no one would believe it.
However, Wang Chong frowned slightly when he heard this number.
The figure was bigger than he imagined.
Cavalry combat has always been different from infantry. When two teams of infantry confront each other, it is common for them to kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred themselves. Even the elite infantry with strong strength may suffer heavy losses after a round of war. But the cavalry is different. The cavalry relies on the power of a collective charge.
Just like a sharp blade, either it cannot cut through the enemy's camp, but once it cuts through, it will immediately cause huge damage to the opponent, but the cavalry itself, because of its high speed, passes by in a flash, but will not be affected by it. A lot of damage. So even if 10,000 cavalry were to fight against 100,000 infantry, in the end, the infantry lost more than half, but the cavalry lost only a thousand, or even a few hundred. This is very normal.
The Wushang Iron Cavalry was just created, and more than 80 people were seriously injured, 30 people were slightly injured, and 7 people were killed in battle. For Wang Chong, compared with what he expected, it was still a bit big.
All around, Xu Keyi, Cheng Sanyuan, Su Shixuan, including Li Siye, all keenly sensed Wang Chong's frown. Wang Chong's request seems to be much higher than they imagined.
With five thousand to twenty-seven thousand, there were only more than one hundred casualties, and only seven people actually died, yet Wang Chong was still not satisfied. Speaking out, even the generals and guards in the border areas of the Tang Dynasty would probably be jealous.
"...The training has only been more than half a month, and it seems that further improvement is needed.
In addition, things about the meteorite iron and Uzi steel sword must be speeded up. Both must be shipped as quickly as possible. "
Wang Chong secretly said in his heart.
Back then, all members of the Markliumu Army were equipped with Uzi steel swords, which were almost god-stopping and god-stopping. Unfortunately, with the invasion of those foreign invaders and the collapse of the Dashi Empire, the 10,000 Uzi steel swords also followed. disappear. So even in the late end of the world, Wang Chong's black-scarred iron cavalry could not be equipped with those indestructible Uzi steel swords.
But now, everything is different. Not only can Wang Chong equip all the Wushang cavalry under his command with Uzi steel swords, but he can also equip them with the indestructible, stronger than Uzi Tibetan plate armor. Meteorite" armor, this black-scarred cavalry will reach an unprecedented level in the future, stronger than the previous "black-scarred cavalry" that was known as the strongest in the world.
But it was also because of this that Wang Chong attached great importance to this army. After all, the number of people in Wushang Village is limited, and every time one dies, there will be one less. No matter how much you value these elite soldiers, you cannot overestimate them.
"Cousin, I set off more than three months ago, and I went there by the monsoon. Calculating the time, it should be more than a month before I can return."
Thinking of his cousin Wang Liang, a bright light flashed in Wang Chong's eyes.
The first time he went overseas, Wang Liang went through trials and tribulations, experienced the hearts of the people, and also experienced the dangers of various environments. In the middle, he wasted several months in order to find the location of the islands with meteorites from outside the sky. . But now, with the first success and experience, and those skilled sailors, everything was different.
At least, this time I don't have to go through the hardships and obstacles like last time, and it doesn't take as long as half a year. Going there by the monsoon, and then returning by the monsoon, it takes at most four months.
"I'm really looking forward to it!"
Wang Chong secretly said in his heart.
With the feedback from the first time, this second voyage, Wang Chong's investment in Wang Liang is much larger than the first time, and the starting team is also much larger. This means that there are more extraterrestrial meteorites that can be transported back, and definitely more than the first time.
These thoughts flashed through his mind, and after a while, Wang Chong returned to normal.
"By the way, after coming down from the plateau, how is the current situation of the army? Has it been counted?"
Wang Chong looked at Xu Keyi beside him and said.
Hearing this sentence, everyone's expression changed slightly.
"Five thousand people, a total of more than 1,000 people have diarrhea, and another 300 people have mild fever, and others have slight discomfort."
Before Xu Keyi could speak, Cheng Sanyuan interjected.
Strange to say, this did not happen when they were on the plateau, but after getting off the plateau, the 5,000 troops showed various discomforts one after another.
For this issue, Cheng Sanyuan and Xu Keyi and their generals have been discussing for a long time, and they are all worried.
It is said that the Uzang Plateau is the promised land bestowed by God to the Uzbek Tibetans. Cheng Sanyuan didn’t feel much about it before, and sometimes even sneered when they talked about it. But now no one dares to think so.
The strength of the five thousand black-scarred iron cavalry is obvious to all, but even they will look like this after a trip to the plateau, let alone other people.
"Master Hou, is this altitude sickness?"
On the side, Li Siye stared at Wang Chong and said.
He has followed Wang Chong for a long time, so he knows more or less.
"Um."
Wang Chong nodded, a melancholy look flashed in his eyes.
Altitude sickness is indeed a big problem. After besieging the Xiangxiong training camp, he quickly issued an order to retreat, which is also related to this.
The people of Wushang Village roamed the mountains all day long, and their physical fitness far surpassed ordinary people in all aspects. Wang Chong originally thought that they would not be so serious, but now it seems that he still greatly underestimated the severity of altitude sickness.
The Tibetans of Uzbekistan call the plateau a heaven-sent place, and claim that anyone who enters the plateau will be cursed. With this unique natural danger, they can attack and defend, and they continue to harass and invade the surrounding countries. Now It seems natural to have its reasons.
"My Lord, the plateau is indeed the territory of the Uzbek Tibetans. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to stay on the plateau for a long time."
Xu Keyi, Cheng Sanyuan and others said worriedly.
Wang Chong remained silent.
If the altitude sickness is serious, it will indeed lead to respiratory arrest and even death. Compared with such serious consequences, the symptoms of Wuqian Wushang Iron Cavalry are actually very mild.
However, no matter how severe the altitude sickness is, for Wang Chong, it is a peak that must be conquered.
"It seems that we have to put that matter on the agenda in advance."
Wang Chong secretly said in his heart.
In this era, most people still have a state of ignorance and even blind reverence for altitude sickness. Even the aggressive Turkic people have a deep awe of the plateau.
However, Wang Chong knew that there was actually a way to overcome and defeat this altitude sickness.
It's just that this kind of thing needs to be done in secret, and it must not be made public, otherwise, once too many people know about it, it will definitely cause negative effects.
"Let's rest here for a few more days before returning to the City of Steel."
Wang Chong said.
"Yes, Lord Hou!"
Everyone respectfully agreed.
Resting in Tianzhu Mountain for a few days, the mighty army quickly returned to the city of steel. Just after returning to the City of Steel, Wang Chong immediately called the butler sent by Yang Hongchang in the City of Steel.
"Lord Hou!"
The old butler stepped into the hall, saw Wang Chong, and bowed respectfully.
"Steward Yang, help me inform your Patriarch to buy something for me in the Western Regions."
Wang Chong said, he was sitting in a grand teacher's chair, holding a white porcelain cup in his palm, and gently wiped off the tea foam with the lid of the cup in one hand.
"I don't know what the Lord Hou wants? As long as our Yang family can do it, we will definitely die!"
The old butler said with a straight face.
"That doesn't have to be that serious, I just need your Patriarch to help me buy a small thing."
Wang Chong didn't go around the bush either, and went straight to the point.
"This is a small red flower that grows on the Uzbek Plateau, called Rhodiola."
"Rhodiola?"
The old butler frowned, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
He has been in the Western Regions all year round and knows everything here, but he has never heard of the name Rhodiola.
"Master Hou, forgive me for being ignorant, but as far as I know, there is no such thing as rhodiola in the Western Regions."
The old housekeeper also dabbled in medicinal herbs, and the Yang family had resold this kind of thing, but the old housekeeper didn't remember it. Wu Si didn't have many things hidden in the Western Regions for reselling. If there is such a rhodiola, he must have an impression, and he will definitely not remember it wrong.
"Hehe, it's better if no one buys it. You just need to tell your owner to help me buy it secretly. The red flower is a very common wild flower on the plateau. If you tell your owner, you will buy it for the big cannibal. Yes, to feed the horses, to defecate for the war horses."
As Wang Chong said, he took out a piece of drawing paper from the side drawer and handed it over.
"I've already drawn the appearance of Rhodiola rosea, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with asking your Patriarch to buy it according to this."
"Understood, Master Hou, I'll do it now."
The old housekeeper took the drawing paper and left quickly. Now that there is a portrait of Rhodiola, everything is much easier. With the Yang family's influence in the Western Regions for many years, as long as there is such a thing, even if it is three feet deep, it will definitely be found for Wang Chong.
"No one knows about Rhodiola. It's really surprising that no one cares about it for such a long time."
Watching the old housekeeper leave, Wang Chong closed his eyes slightly, took a sip of fragrant tea, and leaned back, thinking deeply.
The Uzang Plateau has become a natural barrier to protect the Uzbek Empire, and any people from other empires will be greatly reduced in strength if they enter there, including the big cannibals back then, and the powerful Makliumu Legion.
But this kind of "natural danger" is not impossible to overcome, and Rhodiola is that way.
