Zhao Chen immediately began to direct the soldiers to set up large pots outside the wounded barracks, fill them with water, and keep burning them.
And let people wash some cotton cloths, put them in boiling water for disinfection, and use a long clean bamboo pole to dry them one by one.
Since it is now summer and the weather is hot, these things will be dried quickly.
While drying, Zhao Chen personally led the two generals Gao Shun and Xu Rong to secretly develop distilled alcohol. They slowly collected the steam generated in the sealed wine pot that had been burning on the fire through bamboo tubes.
Soon a large bottle was collected, and then repeated distillation and collection, continued for three times before giving up.
Zhao Chen asked them to continue making and keep it secret, while he returned to the wounded barracks alone with the alcohol he had made.
After all these preparations were done, Zhao Chen personally demonstrated step by step, and wiped and disinfected each soldier with a large wound with alcohol, and then bandaged it with the bandaging technique he remembered. .
He demonstrated very slowly, and explained each step carefully, so they were busy until night.
? As night falls, the sky is full of stars, very dazzling.
After this day, Zhao Chen completed the treatment and bandaging of all the wounded. Most of the lightly wounded have already recovered half of their combat strength, and some of the seriously injured have turned the corner and will recover after a period of recuperation.
There are only a few hundred of the most seriously injured wounded left. There is no way to treat them completely. They can only wrap the wounds with herbs first, and leave to fate.
Zhao Chen and all the doctors have tried their best to do their best. After finishing everything, Zhao Chen returned to the tent with a tired body, preparing for the meeting to decide the troops' actions.
Zhao Chen first took out a series of military maps and information, and studied them carefully.
"My lord, the shadow guard has something important to report." A mysterious shadow appeared in the tent.
This person was dressed in black, wearing a mask, holding a message wrapped in a bamboo tube, and knelt on one knee.
"Oh? What's the matter with the shadow guard? Bring it up." Zhao Chen withdrew his gaze and looked up at him.
After the shadow guard received the order, he carefully bowed his head and brought the information to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen took the bamboo tube, took out the information inside, checked it first, coded it, and opened it after confirming it was correct.
Zhao Chen's eyes scanned very quickly, ten lines at a glance, and quickly read the entire information.
"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it. Originally, I was still worried about whether the disastrous defeat of the Qin army in the southeast would affect General Wang Jian's arrangement.
Now King Qin Yingzheng of the Qin State actually persuaded the two countries of Han and Wei to attack Zhao, and now he has invaded the territory of Zhao State. I really don¡¯t know how he did it.
After Li Mu receives this news, he will definitely launch an attack in advance, so I can take the opportunity to attract the attention of the enemy army, and send the wounded and the Qin army safely out of Zhao State and back to Qin State.
Later, I will talk to those generals first to reassure their hearts. "Zhao Chen's mind kept turning.
"Shadow Guard, you successfully reinforced our army to the Hengyi Army, and successfully rescued the soldiers of the other army who were in ambush.
Now there are only less than 50,000 soldiers left in the army, and only 30,000 soldiers who can fight. The news told Yingsha that he should find someone to pretend to be a scout and report to General Wang Jian. "
The shadow guard didn't speak, he nodded slightly, immediately started using lightness kung fu, and quickly disappeared into the tent.
Time passed little by little, and today's camp is brightly lit.
A large number of soldiers are patrolling nervously. The aftermath of the war has not completely passed, and they are still tense, worried about the enemy's surprise attack.
"Generals, let's discuss it now. In the next operation, our army will lose more than 80,000 people. Now there are still more than 10,000 wounded, and less than 40,000 soldiers can fight. Food, grass and equipment are still sufficient."
Zhao Chen took the lead in introducing the basic situation.
"Look, general, we still have enough food and grass. Should we continue to stand in a stalemate with the enemy, or should we withdraw our troops and return to Qin?" a general said first.
Gao Shun Xu Rong already knew his plan after Zhao Chen's advance ventilation, so he didn't plan to speak.
"Based on this general's point of view, our army has few soldiers, and the enemy has nearly 100,000 soldiers, which can be said to be more than three times the number of our army. In addition, there is such a famous general as Li Mu. Our army wants to use these troops to He contended that it was not an ideal choice.
So I decided to lead the army back. " Zhao Chen continued.
"Then general, when are you going to bring the army backWithdrawal? "
"Now is not a good time to retreat. The enemy has all returned to camp, and our army has many wounded. If we withdraw at this time, we will be chased by the enemy, and there will definitely be heavy casualties. This is not advisable.
We need to find a good time. I will lead the cavalry and infantry to cover and attract the attention of the enemy. You will lead the remaining soldiers to retreat slowly. "
Zhao Chen expressed his thoughts one by one.
"General, when will the best time come?"
"I received information that our country successfully persuaded Han and Wei to send troops to Zhao. At this time, Zhao is in danger. This is our best opportunity. As long as Li Mu knows, he will definitely launch an attack in advance, and our army will have a chance.
In the past few days, our army has to take a good rest and send out a small group of scouts during the day to explore the surrounding roads that can hide and walk when we retreat, so as to prepare in advance for future plans.
Everyone, do you understand? "
Zhao Chen straightened his body, swept the generals with his majestic tiger eyes, and said.
"It's the general, the last general obeys!"
Early the next morning, under Zhao Chen's arrangement, the entire battalion moved into action, constantly sending out scouts to scout around. They were cautious and did not attract the attention of the enemy.
At this time, the soldiers in the entire camp saw that their generals had regained their confidence. After being infected by them, they all began to gradually regain their confidence.
They were all waiting for that god-given opportunity to lead their troops to retreat. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
