Eight hundred and fifty-eight I, Wei Tianzi, have always valued the lives of soldiers

Wu Yi didn't know how to answer such a question.

But he seemed to feel that what Huang Quan said might be right.

They are really inferior to those of Wei.

Since the war, the people of Shu have tried their best to exhaust all their savings for the army to fight, and the materials have been scarce to a certain extent.

Wu Yi knew that in order to support the war, many places had already collected all the seeds and grains from the people, and it had reached this point.

Even if this battle is won, a great famine will occur after the war, and I don’t know how many people will starve to death.

On the other hand, the Wei people walked leisurely in the garden and were like visiting beautiful scenery. They were always using scattering machines to attack long-range attacks. The army rarely came forward to seize the city in person. Although the Wei army felt that it was impossible to capture the city quickly, it also reflected the Wei people's confidence.

Because there is enough food and enough logistics, the emperor did not force them to fight quickly, so he could make the front-line army so confident and not advance recklessly.

And they almost counted the days to calculate when the grain transport team would arrive.

Because there is always insufficient food.

The huge gap between the two countries can be seen from the grain reserves. In this case, using 80,000 troops to fight against the Wei people was in a sense overdrawn for Shu.

If it weren't for the wealth of Shu that had always been rich and the country of Tianfu was well-known, not to mention two months, twenty days would be difficult.

The front line has an army of 80,000,000 grain transporters, and more than 200,000 people who are not doing anything to produce are eating. If you can persist until now, you will still have a bite of food. This is the best reflection of the four words "The Kingdom of Heavenly Prefecture".

Now that things have gone, Chengdu is gone, and the resistance of the Shu people has failed. The resistance with all their strength has failed. What else can we do?

Wu Yi lost without any temper, no temper at all.

Huang Quan still had another fight in his heart, but when he saw the messy soldiers around him with low morale, he also deeply realized that he was powerless to face the powerful Wei army.

Now that things have come to this point, you will lose. Even if you have not been defeated head-on, and if the country is defeated, what can they do if they can fight?

On April 20, 2018, the second year of Yande, Wu Yi, the general general of the Shu army, officially opened the Jiange Pass City, and led all the soldiers who could still act, put down their weapons, took off their armor, lined up to leave the city, and asked for surrender in front of the Wei camp and gave up resistance.

Guan Yu, the chief general of the Wei army, stepped forward with confidence and accepted Wu Yi's surrender on behalf of Emperor Guo Peng.

Faced with the enemy who persisted in not surrendering before Liu Zhang surrendered, Guan Yu still maintained a certain respect, because they had not been defeated and had been persevering. Guan Yu could not humiliate them, nor would he humiliate them.

"The war between the two countries is a national war, not a personal grudge. You stick to Jiange and have not allowed our army to cross over for two months. Guan has nothing to say about your defense. Guan has accepted your surrender. As for how to deal with you, we have to wait for the imperial edict of our emperor."

Wu Yi lowered his head.

"The defeated general will be left to the emperor of Wei."

Guan Yu was very satisfied with Wu Yi's attitude and ordered the confiscation of the Shu army's weapons and armor. Then, accompanied by Wu Yi, he entered Jiange Pass City.

When entering Jiange Pass City, Guan Yu saw the tragic situation in Jiange Pass City being hit by their stones, thunder and fierce ignition tanks, as well as the wounded soldiers who were lying in the simple temporary barracks.

Frowning, Guan Yu was a little surprised.

"Is there no one to treat their injuries?"

Guan Yu stepped forward to look at the injuries of these wounded soldiers and found that many wounds had festered and were difficult to treat, but some wounded soldiers had mild injuries and were not treated.

When Guan Yu asked this, Wu Yi almost choked to death, and Huang Quan behind him almost stepped forward and strangled Guan Yu to death.

Are you embarrassed to say this?

Is this what you should say?

Fortunately, they held back, sorted out their emotions, and Wu Yi spoke slowly.

"Shuzhong lacks medical treatment and medicine. We asked Chengdu for help for a long time, but we did not get many military doctors and medicinal materials. Only a few people can be treated, and most people cannot be treated. If you are lucky, you can survive. If you are unlucky, you can only wait for death. In two months, our army has died of these injuries. There are more than 5,000 people."

After saying that, Wu Yi and the surrendered generals of the Shu army all lowered their heads and shed tears silently.

“So many?”

Guan Yu was a little surprised and looked at Xun You, which made him understand the whole story.

They could not ask Liu Zhang to take out a large sum of money like Guo Peng to train military doctors and widely plant medicinal materials, just to cure wounded soldiers.

They also knew in their hearts that leaders like Guo Peng who loves soldiers are hard to come by, and it is considered lucky to meet them, and they cannot blame anyone if they don’t meet them.

After all, for thousands of years, how many people have truly taken the lives of these soldiers with low life as cheap as grass in their hearts?

When the dynasty was strong, it was still gentler. It was engaged in recruiting soldiers, and it was advisable to recruit a group of desperate people. When the dynasty was in decline and chaos, it was forced to conquer.

When you don’t fight, you are the most humble commoner. You may not even be able to eat rice. You will die when you are miserable.

When fighting, it is a temporary recruitment. When you have money, you throw it into the military camp to give it a weapon. When you have no money, you will be considered a weapon. As for armor, you don’t even think about it. That thing is so expensive.

The army only cares about food and does not let you starve to death, but if the supplies cannot keep up, it is not impossible to starve to death.

Anyway, the final victory was the general's private soldiers, who used excellent weapons to wear excellent armor. These people were cannon fodder and were used to make up for their numbers. Living was considered luck, and death was not considered unlucky.

If no one treats the injury, he can only deal with it himself. If he is lucky, he will die if he is bad. At that time, he will give him a little pension. It will be considered the emperor's kindness.

Only by pursuing the city and plundering it in the end can you return with a full load after you can earn back your capital.

So isn’t this war just a life-long battle?

Guan Yu thought for a moment, looked at the wounded soldiers in the camp, looked at the sad expressions of the generals of the Shu army, and thought for a moment, then instructed his troops to move the entire field hospital to Jiangeguan City.

He wanted the military doctors to treat the soldiers who could still be rescued.

Xun You suddenly looked at Guan Yu with some surprise, looked up and down, and his evaluation of Guan Yu reached a higher level.

When they learned about this, all the surrendered generals of the Shu army were very surprised. They didn't know why Guan Yu did this and looked confused.

However, when they saw a large number of Wei army military doctors bringing medicinal materials and coming to treat the wounded soldiers of the Shu army, the feeling of surprise was simply indescribable.

Even Huang Quan, who was still gritting his teeth, didn't know what expression to face the scene in front of him.

The Wei army's military doctors were quite large, with white cloth wrapped around their arms and white square scarfs on their heads. They drove in teams and checked the wounds for the wounded soldiers.

Basically, they first sprinkled things like water on the wound, and the wounded soldiers made shrill screams. There were people like assistants around the military doctors pressed the bodies of the wounded soldiers to prevent them from moving. Then the military doctors operated like a tiger.

Either apply medicine directly to bandage, or use a sharp small knife to cut the soldier's wounds into blood, then apply various herbs, and then bandage them. The technique is skillful and the speed is very fast.

The soldiers of the Shu army cried and howled, and then their voices gradually stopped until they stopped crying.

Just as the surrendered generals of the Shu army and a group of soldiers watched, the military doctors dealt with the wounds of these wounded soldiers one by one.

Wu Yi smelled the water-like thing at the beginning. The smeller was a bit like wine, but it didn't feel like wine, and the taste was very strong, completely different from the wine they usually drink.

But this is not the point. The key is the number of military doctors in the Wei army, the rich medicinal materials, the fast treatment speed, and... Why did Guan Yu help the Shu army treat the wounded soldiers?

"I, Emperor Wei, have always valued the lives of soldiers."

Guan Yu looked at Wu Yi and the surrendered generals of the Shu army with a confused look and said proudly: "Since you surrender, Guan cannot be regarded as not seeing it. After years of war, Your Majesty has set up more military doctors in the army. Every time we march, at least one hundred military doctors will accompany us. Every time we arrive, we will build a temporary clinic to treat wounded soldiers.

His Majesty said that a veteran who returned to the team was better than ten recruited recruits. Medicinal materials are valuable, and life is priceless. Medicinal materials can be planted after they are gone. They grow into it in a few years. People are gone, and they will never grow into it without more than ten or twenty years. Therefore, our army has always had a tradition of never abandoning any wounded soldiers."
