Chapter 216: Two Cities Conquered in One Day
Luo Li was closely guarded by Ghost Hand Poison Doctor, Hong Gu, Mo Ming, Pang Ying, Mulan'er and other female soldiers at the rear of the charging formation that was like a rapidly shot arrow. When the arrow entered the city gate, their tail slowed down, circled their horses and stopped outside the safe city gate.
Qin Wang Zhao Defang did not serve as the spearhead of the charging formation today. He watched the vanguard generals in the middle army, and rushed into the city like a crushing force.
Shuozhou City Lord Xiao Bao was cut in the throat by Yun Yi, and the 6,000 defenders lost their backbone. The army was in a state of chaos and encountered the invincible Mo Yun cavalry. Although the two lieutenants tried their best to gather the fleeing remnants and organize a combat-capable organization to retake the South Gate, the situation was already over and the morale was low, so they had to turn around and flee to the North Gate with their troops.
When the cavalry pursued the defeated enemy, it was like a tiger descending from the mountain to catch chickens, ducks and dogs. The two thousand Mo Yun cavalry chased the Liao army all the way out of the North Gate, chasing and killing them for more than thirty miles, and then turned around to collect the spoils and captured small groups of enemy troops and returned to Shuozhou City.
The main street of Shuozhou City was a river of blood, and the bodies of Liao soldiers were everywhere. The smell of blood filled the city, and the houses that were set on fire by the Liao soldiers were still emitting thick smoke.
The shops on the street were all closed, and the people were terrified. The whole family, young and old, hid in the safe corners of their homes in fear to avoid the disaster of war. Only the homes of innocent people who were hacked to death by the Liao soldiers while fleeing were heard with suppressed cries.
Yun Yi commanded the soldiers to clean up the battlefield and put out the flames. Dozens of teams of twelve people searched the city for the remnants of the Liao army who hid in the homes of the people.
Capturing a city in an hour, killing more than 3,000 enemies, and capturing more than 1,000, this is a great victory. The Mo Yun Cavalry warriors did not cheer for victory, nor did they show much arrogance and complacency. Their resolute faces only showed dignity and self-confidence.
Several shadow guards who captured the city gate were wounded by arrows, and there were dozens of Mo Yun Cavalry elite soldiers with varying degrees of severity. Luo Li had no time to observe the customs and habits of the city in the enemy's territory, and with the Ghost Hand Poison Doctor, Si Yu led ten health soldiers from the Big Foot Women's Corps to treat their own wounded.
A teahouse on the street was requisitioned and used as an operating room.
Luo Li used tweezers to clip out a broken small intestine from the opened abdominal cavity, trimmed the two ends first, and confirmed that the blood supply at the broken end was good. Use suture needles to suture the broken layers of the posterior wall first, and then suture the anterior wall layer and the serous muscle layer.
The seriously injured person was Shadow Guard Mo Sheng, who was shot by four arrows and stabbed in the abdomen by the enemy. After suturing the three broken intestines, Luo Li sutured the opened abdominal cavity layer by layer.
It was a very cold day, but Luo Li, who was focused and focused, had sweat on his forehead.
Qin Wang Zhao Defang saw his own princess undergoing surgery for the first time. He was shocked and felt distressed in his heart. He carefully wiped the sweat off the princess's forehead with a cloth, not daring to breathe a nervous breath.
The ghost-handed poison doctor who was helping his master was standing by, listening to his master's orders and passing the instruments. He stared at his master's movements without blinking. When his eyes were tired, he blinked and then widened them again. After
cutting off the last thread, Luo Li threw the suture needle in her hand to the ghost-handed poison doctor. She stretched her waist with blood on her hands and said with a relaxed and confident tone, "It's done! The operation was a perfect success. Mo Sheng's life will not be lost."
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. Qin Wang Zhao Defang helped Luo Li sit on the chair beside him, took off her blood-stained gloves, took off her mask, and poured a bowl of tea to her mouth.
: "Li'er, you've worked hard! Drink some tea to moisten your throat."
Luo Li was served with peace of mind. After taking a sip of the tea, she frowned and said, "The tea is cold. It's so cold. Don't you know to get a pot of hot tea?"
"I'm sorry! The hot tea will be here soon." Qin Wang Zhao Defang picked up the teapot and walked out quickly to change it for hot tea.
The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor packed up the precious instruments and said to Luo Li in a flattering manner: "Master, my nephew's licking dog is doing a good job, right? If jade is not polished, it will not be made into a useful object. If hard labor is not used, it will be in vain. If you get the chance, you should use him hard!"
Luo Li was amused in his heart, and his face sank, "Ghost Hand, you insisted on rushing to be my assistant. Your wish has been fulfilled. There are still injured people outside. Why don't you hurry up and help your Senior Sister Siyu!"
"I will obey the master's order!" The Ghost Hand Poison Doctor picked up the surgical bag and ran out in a flash.
Luo Li drank two cups of hot tea under the attentive and thoughtful service of His Royal Highness the King of Qin. After relieving his fatigue, he went downstairs with the King of Qin to check on the treatment of the injured.
In the spacious lobby on the first floor of the teahouse, tea tables were used as operating tables and beds. Siyu and ten health soldiers were busy and sweating. The elite soldiers of Moyun Cavalry were all tough men with strong personalities. In front of these female military doctors, no one of the wounded, no matter how serious their injuries were, cried out in pain.
A young soldier turned pale in pain when the female military doctor disinfected the wound on his arm with alcohol. Beads of sweat were as big as beans on his face. The corner of the table that he was holding with his other hand was about to break, but he clenched his teeth to prevent himself from groaning.
Female military doctor Ma Wei looked at him trying to endure the pain, smiled and said softly: "It hurts when you disinfect the wound with alcohol. If you can't help it, just hum a few times."
"It doesn't hurt!" The young soldier uttered two words from his clenched teeth.
Ma Wei smiled, sewed up the deep wound that could see the bone, and whispered to divert his attention from the pain: "What's your name? How old are you?" "
My name is Yue Linzhou, I'm eighteen years old this year, I'm not married and I'm not engaged. I live in Wuli Village outside Yanzhou City. My father died early, my mother is still alive, and I have a ten-year-old sister. There are twelve acres of land in my family, and..." Before
Yue Linzhou finished his rapid-fire words, the hall was "boomed" with laughter!
"Yue Linzhou! You are only 18 years old, why are you in such a hurry? The brothers are over 20 years old and have not married or engaged, but they are not as impatient as you!"
A captain with an arrow stuck in his arm laughed loudly. Now, the laughter in the hall was even louder.
The ghost-handed poison doctor raised his eyebrows, "This kid named Yue has a promising future!"
Yue Linzhou and Ma Wei were both embarrassed and their faces flushed.
Walking on the stairs, Luo Li turned her head and glared at Qin Wang Zhao Defang beside her!
Qin Wang Zhao Defang was proud in his heart, with a smile on his face, and gave a look of praise to his brave soldiers.
Yun Yi walked in excitedly, "Your Majesty, Yang Yanzhao has captured Huanzhou City! Zhu Fang, the defender of Huanzhou City, abandoned the city and fled to Yingzhou with more than 3,000 defeated soldiers and generals."
Capturing two cities in one day was a great victory that would go down in history. There was cheering in the hall!
The excited cheers of the female soldiers also inspired the Moyun Cavalry wounded, who had always been dignified after winning, to let loose in excitement. As they enjoyed the admiring gazes of the female military doctors, they were more proud than ever after any victory.
Qin Wang Zhao Defang raised his lips and smiled at the cheering female soldiers and arrogant subordinates. He nodded reservedly to Yun Yi, who was also excited. What he was thinking about was what the princess said: Men and women work together, and work is not tiring! He
added silently in his heart: Men and women work together, injuries are not painful, men and women live together, and morale is high!
The princess's big-footed women's army is well organized! The Moyun Cavalry pigs under this king are blessed.
