Chapter 38 Talk

Thinking of this, Zhou Xian suddenly remembered something. "Doctor Hua, haven't you and Wells always had a gap? Why did you get Fushou Paste from him?"

Hua Qingfeng's face turned red and he said slowly: "Although this red-haired Heyi is not as good as me, his medicine also has some advantages, so he occasionally dates him."

Zhou Xian said "Oh" and was unwilling to refute his face. Perhaps he saw some differences from Western medicine. "By the way, Doctor Hua, I have another thing to ask you. Even if you promise to directly receive the total salary after you have finished learning from you, is it still difficult to recruit those who are willing to work as doctors?"

Hua Qingfeng sighed and said, "Those who study medicine must first know literacy. Only in this way can they read various medical books and prescribe various prescriptions for patients. Knowing diseases, knowing medicine, distinguishing pathology, and using medicines are complicated and boring. And if you want to achieve something, it will take more than ten years to achieve it. Now there are fewer people who are willing to follow the doctor, and even fewer people who can persist are rare. The number of medical officials now is far from meeting the requirements of adults. Otherwise, I would not have come here with the army at such an old age."

After hearing the complaints in Hua Qingfeng's words, Zhou Xian smiled. "That's really hard work for Doctor Hua."

Hua Qingfeng shook his head gently and picked up the medicine bowl from the table, "Okay, sir, let's drink it while it's hot!"

After Zhou Xian finished drinking, he was full of bitter taste. He wiped the corner of his mouth and said, "Doctor Hua thought about recruiting some female disciples? Some of them are literate and more attentive than men. Being a doctor may be a good choice."

Hua Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Sir, are you kidding me? Will female medical officers be allowed in your army? Wouldn't everyone become military prostitutes? This will ruin my reputation."

Zhou Xian shook his head and said, "I will allow it. And I will never let them become military prostitutes. Whoever dares to invade them, I will directly chop his head, no matter how high his position is. They will become soldiers, become life-saving benefactors of the injured soldiers, and will be the top priority of the protection of the entire army."

Hua Qingfeng was stuck on the spot and said after a while: "You are..."

Zhou Xianxiao said, "You think about it. If you agree, I will run a medical school for you and name it after you. There are not many opportunities to become famous throughout the ages! This is the first in the entire Ming Dynasty."

Huaqing Feng Yi was moved, "There are even fewer girls who can read, and they are basically all the ladies. Can adults convince them to study medicine with me? Will their families agree?"

Zhou Xian moved his body slightly and said with a faint smile: "As long as Doctor Hua, you agree, everything else will be easy to do. Choose a place first! I think Xuzhou is good, with convenient geography and well-connected. I will find someone to build the college for you first."

Huaqing's cover showed confusion, "Isn't Xuzhou still in the hands of Longwu Army!"

Zhou Xian nodded and said, "It's right now, but it's not going to be there soon."

"You want to take Xuzhou?" Li Dingguo was brought in by Zhang Huai. His left leg was stabbed by Zhou Xian, and he was a little staggering when walking. He had blood on his face and chest. He knew at a glance that he must have suffered a lot. But he stood up straight, and although he looked embarrassed, he still had an inviolable aura.

When Zhou Xian saw it was him, he smiled and said with a smile: "Brother Li, if you were me, wouldn't you seize Xuzhou at this time? Zhang Huai, move a stool and let General Li sit down."

Li Dingguo frowned and said nothing. Most of Xuzhou's troops were transferred to the south, and there was no big difference between them and the empty city at this moment. How could Zhou Xian let go of such an opportunity? He should have expected this incident long ago.

Hua Qingfeng bowed and said, "Sir, then I'll go out first?"

Zhou Xian waved his hand and said, "Doctor Hua asked General Li to treat his wounds first. Zhang Huai, go out and get some food. By the way, what do Brother Li like to eat?"

Li Dingguo snorted without saying anything.

Zhou Xian smiled and said, "Then do whatever you want! There are all kinds of meat and vegetables, and there are also some wine. There are also those captured Long Warriors, the injured will be treated, and the others will be given adequate diet and you will not abuse them."

Zhang Huai walked out and whispered: "Sun Bao, go in. If the thief dares to act rashly, kill him directly. If there is any accident in the Supervisor because of you, I will kill you directly."

Seeing Sun Bao come in, Zhou Xian knew that they were worried about him and didn't say much.

Huaqing Feng gave Li Dingguo an examination and said, "Fortunately, except for the legs, there are some skin trauma, so it will be cured after a while. I will clean the wound for the general first, and then prescribe some blood-replenishing medicine."

Li Dingguo nodded and said politely: "Thank you."

Hua Qingfeng nodded slightly, and felt more respect for the captured general. He asked someone to get some wine, carefully cleaned Li Dingguo's wounds, applied medicine, and tied them with cloth strips.

"Hey! How is He Jin now?" Li Dingguo suddenly asked when Hua Qingfeng left.

Zhou Xian said slowly: "He was defeated, I don't know the specific details yet. I was knocked out by you and just woke up. Sun Bao, is there any new battle report coming? Take it to Brother Li."

Sun Bao looked hesitant, "Shoujie Zhang asked me to look at him."

Zhou Xian glanced at Li Dingguo and smiled faintly, "Brother Li is a gentleman, and he is a trick to fight, but the outcome is decided at this moment. I don't think Brother Li will do anything too much, don't worry!"

Sun Bao hesitated for a while, and finally turned around and left.

Li Dingguo looked at Zhou Xian strangely. Just as he was hesitating, Zhang Huai came back. He ordered others to get it, and he immediately turned it back.

Eating wine and meat and looking at the war report, Li Dingguo asked: "Zhou Xian, where did you come from so many troops?"

Zhou Xian said: "I mobilized more than 80% of the army in Shandong, and the main force besieging Teng County was recently transferred back from southern Liaoning, with only a total of more than 10,000. But because it was dark, you couldn't see how many soldiers there were, and the city wall was suddenly destroyed and the city was in chaos, which made me lucky to succeed."

Li Dingguo asked: "What did you use? It could actually destroy the city wall directly. Is it a cannon?"

Zhou Xian shook his head, "It was explosives. When he withdrew his troops, he buried it under the city wall and ignited it with a fuse."

Li Dingguo was silent for a while and said, "It seems that you have prepared for a long time."

Zhou Xian nodded and smiled, "Your cavalry is too strong, so I can only think about trapping it in the city. It was also a lucky thing that you personally led your troops into Teng County."

Li Dingguo sighed softly, "What a pity, I didn't kill you."
