Chapter 30: It Is Important to Find the Right Shining Point

To this day, Yunchu still doesn't believe the story about Buddha told by Lao Yangpi. The Buddhists like to use magical and beautiful stories to trick people into joining the theoretical system they have constructed.

There are so many stories like this, and after listening to them for a long time, it seems like they are true.

The same goes for the story of the boy who cried wolf. The more times you tell it, the more it becomes true.

The story of the Turks is even more like this. They were almost killed by the Tang army long ago. Even those who were not killed became obedient people of the Tang Dynasty. Unexpectedly, the Tang Dynasty had just changed an emperor, and the Turks started to fight again. There was a fuss.

Yunchu, who was standing on the city wall, was very emotional.

After a nation becomes accustomed to being strong, the possibility of letting them bow their heads and become grandchildren is very low, especially for a race that has tasted the taste of power. No matter how good their master is to them, they still want to be independent and how to enjoy power alone.

The Turks outside the city did not gather outside the city at once. Some of the first arrivals were cavalry. These people rode horses to the vicinity of Qiuci from time to time to observe how to deal with the people in the city.

The two Turks who were tied to the high platform with iron chains by He Yuanshan were seen by the Turkic cavalry. As a result, the Turkic cavalry group burst into violent roars. The most exaggerated thing was that some Turks cut their faces with knives. Blood was smeared everywhere, then he knelt on the ground, raised his hands, and swore to Tengger like a poem in a very rhythmic Turkic language, that the Tang people in the city would be skinned and cramped, and made into human flesh sauce.

However, these Turks seemed very angry, but no one wanted to get close to Kucha City.

The city gate cave was crowded with soldiers wearing armor. These people didn't show any signs of nervousness. They just sat quietly on the ground holding their weapons. Some even slept with their eyes closed.

On the other hand, people like He Yuanshan and Liu Xiong were like chicken blood, constantly issuing various orders to the chaotic Hu people, making the whole Hu people in Qiuci move, like a pot of boiling water.

"We need to make them move so they won't feel scared!"

He Yuanshan looks more and more like a general.

However, Ding Dayou, the fifth-grade military general of Zhechong Prefecture in Shangzhou, seemed to have disappeared, so that the barbarians in the city had an illusion that He Yuanshan was the supreme commander of the city.

Yun Chu received an errand from He Yuanshan to contact Zhe Chongfu soldiers and began to look for Ding Dayou.

At this moment, the two safest places in the city are nothing more than the unknown Lao Yangpi's hiding place, and the other is the command center of the government troops waiting for Ding Da.

Lao Yangpi's home should be Lao Yangpi's hiding place, so Ding Dayou's home should be at Ding Dayou's residence in Qiuci City, but Yunchu didn't know it.

Ding Dayou's reputation for liking Hu Ji is known to many people in Qiuci. Naturally, the Hu merchants and Tang businessmen who want to curry favor with Ding Dayou also know it. After all, as long as a beautiful Hu Ji appears, everyone wants to send it to Ding Dayou. There is a lot to go there.

Of course, sending him to the barracks is not possible. Even if Ding Dayou is a fifth-grade military general, once the military judicial officer finds out that he is breeding orchids in the army, he will be punished with a hundred military sticks and three thousand miles of exile. dropped.

With these calculations, it will be easy to find Ding Dayou's foreign residence.

Soon, Yun Chu found an ordinary house closest to the military camp. It had an unremarkable appearance but occupied a vast area.

There were four fat and strong Hu warriors standing at the door. Yun Chuli ignored the four warriors, stepped up the steps and went straight into the door.

The warriors didn't seem to see Yunchu and allowed him to enter.

After entering the door, Yun Chu stopped, raised his hands to the two soldiers carrying Tang swords and said, "Da Guan ordered Zhang Gu Yun Chu to see Captain Ding."

The imperial soldier, who was standing upright in a pretentious manner, suddenly collapsed when he realized that a young man from Tang Dynasty had entered. He lazily brought a stool to Yun Chu and said, "Sit down for a while. The captain is busy cleaning the back house at the moment." , I don’t have time to see anyone.”

Yun Chu didn't insist and just smiled and chatted with the two guards guarding the door.

The atmosphere was good chatting with a handful of raisins, but there were always slight screams in the back house, which greatly disturbed the interest of chatting.

Yun Chu waited for half an hour before he walked into the back house of the school captain Ding Dayou under the leadership of a soldier.

The smell of blood in the back house was very strong, and seven or eight soldiers were shoveling the ground. A tall man lay lazily on a rug bed and looked at Yun Chu.

"Are the Turks close to the city?"

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "No, I'm just shouting and harassing around the city."

"Tell He Yuanshan that it's not time for the government troops to attack yet."

Yun Chu lowered his head and saluted: "The Grand Pass Commander thought that the captain should appear at the top of the city to boost the morale of the people in the city."

Ding Dayou shook his head and said: "When I appeared, it was the moment when Mo Dao made the final blow. At this time, there were two brigade commanders supporting him at the top of the city, which was enough.

Go back and tell He Yuanshan that after he dies in battle, it will be my turn to go to war! "

Yunchu looked up at the scorching sun in the sky, covered his nose with his hands and said, "Don't throw the body into the well. The karez will be cut off by the Turks soon. We have to use well water to quench our thirst."

Ding Dayou looked at Yun Chu with his two big, slightly protruding eyes, somewhat calmly and confidently.

"Wait until you become a judicial officer and join the army before you comment on my matter."

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "I don't mean to blame the captain. The weather is hot now, and the corpses decay very quickly. In addition, there are many people in the city. It is easy to cause plague if people eat what horses chew. The captain has to be on guard."

"So, you are proficient in medicine?"

Yun Chu nodded and said, "Compared with the doctors in the army, it is not a little bit better."

Ding Dayou waved his hand, signaling Yun Chu to leave. It can be seen that he is not in a good mood today. That's right, no matter who it is, if you kill many bedmates who have been together day and night, you will not be in a good mood.

The purpose of Yun Chu coming to Ding Dayou is to avoid going to the battlefield!

Although He Yuanshan and others have promised that Yun Chu will not go to the battlefield, however, in a critical moment, his words do not count.

Because He Yuanshan is not the highest military commander in Qiuci City, his words do not count. As long as Ding Dayou is willing, Yun Chu will become a member of the army with a word, standing in the front holding a spear to fight against the Turkish cavalry.

It was meaningless for Yun Chu to participate in such a battle. Even if he could survive and kill more enemies, it would not have any special value.

However, since he had already regarded himself as a Tang person, he had to do something that was in line with this identity.

He was young, and compared with the doctors in the Tang Dynasty, Yun Chu's methods of treating external injuries were more sophisticated, because he could bandage in various ways, suture simple external injuries, know some human body structures, and know that a clean environment was the top priority to prevent infection.

Knowing these was enough, and he also knew how to make some folk remedies for wounds, such as using lard, rosin, flour, frankincense, and myrrh, which were materials that could be found in the Western Regions, to make simple wound medicines.

This was already very, very advanced. Military doctors in the Tang Dynasty's Zhechongfu generally used plant ash and lime as the main materials for wound medicines.

Although alcohol was a good thing, as long as Yun Chu got it out, in the current environment, he would die more miserably than a pig... After death, he would be cut into pieces and fried.

The inferiors are not worthy of having good things. If they have them, they must belong to the royal family and nobles. If they oppose, they will end up like fat pigs, which is the fate of the inferiors who want to have good things.

The reason why the old immortal Sun Simiao is called the Medicine Saint has a lot to do with his permission to all the pharmacists in the world to name their own prescriptions.

If you don't believe it, you can carefully study the old man's achievements throughout his life, and then you will find that the rumor that he lived for hundreds of years is true. If he didn't live so long, he wouldn't be able to leave so many precious treasures to future generations.

No one dared to deprive Sun Shenxian of his prescriptions, but Yun Chu's prescriptions... Cheng Yaojin's dogs would bark at him for them.

Strict hierarchy, this is the answer Yun Chu concluded after reading countless documents and countless cases.

Personal ability is irrelevant in the Tang Dynasty, and the ability of the clan is the ability that the Tang Dynasty society values ​​most.

When Yunchu appeared on the city wall again, He Yuanshan was still sitting under a shabby straw shed, staring at the increasing number of Turks outside the city. Yunchu thought that the scene of taking advantage of the other party's unstable foothold did not appear. Everyone was very disciplined. One side waited for more people to attack the city, and the other side waited for the enemy to attack the city.

It was very conventional and there was no highlight at all.

As more and more Turks came from outside the city on horses, camels, horse-drawn carts, or on foot, there was finally a war atmosphere in Qiuci City.

Yunchu was going to recruit some people to form a wounded camp, so he deliberately went to the Aries tribe.

As a result, the big Apo Jiesiga of the Aries tribe said that the people of the Aries tribe were all warriors, and even women would not hide when the enemy came.

It can be seen that Jiesiga wanted to perform well in this war to consolidate his position in the hearts of the tribe members.

Selaima wanted to ask Naha what happened to the child, but was interrupted by Jiesiga. He believed in Yunchu's ability and thought that he would definitely protect Naha, but he was worried about Yunchu's feelings for Selaima. He always felt that this Sela boy who had become a Tang person would take Selaima away from him.

"Take good care of Selaima. If anything bad happens to her, I will kill you."

Yunchu's voice was low and cold.

"Don't worry, I am a warrior and will definitely protect Selaima. You don't have to worry too much."

Yunchu nodded and left. This was a very helpless thing. The nomadic Hu people didn't like the work described by Yunchu.

But those Hu girls who made a living by dancing or selling their bodies in the city were willing to actively join Yunchu's team.

So, Yunchu set up the wounded camp in Lao Yangpi's home.

He also requisitioned all the medicines, linen, cotton, and various spices that could be found in the entire city of Qiuci, preparing to show his skills in the process of treating the wounded.

Because only craftsmanship was the place where the upper class of the Tang Dynasty allowed the lower class people to shine.
