Chapter 40 Illness comes like a mountain of money!)
In the military tent, Pei Zhixiu's soft, boneless jade hands gently rested on Ye Mingsheng's wrist, and he concentrated on examining Ye Mingsheng's body.
Because Shen Jianzhong had previously warned in a secret letter that he was not allowed to embezzle money or harass the female family members of the palace, and because Liu Shilin was around him, although Ye Mingsheng controlled the huge Liujing City, in order to avoid suspicion, he still lived in
In this simple military tent, I did not find a comfortable mansion to rest in Liujing City.
Starting yesterday, the Gongdu troops arriving for reinforcements arrived at Liujing City one after another. The number reached thousands, which was more than Ye Mingsheng imagined. However, fortunately, it may be a problem of inconsistent command.
Up to now, Gongdu's army has only conducted small-scale tentative attacks and has not launched any large-scale attacks.
Despite this, Ye Mingsheng still did not dare to be careless. He often patrolled the city to inspect war preparations, fight under Chen Yannian's command, and coordinate and solve various problems.
Before burning incense, it may be due to a long period of poor rest, or the residual Duangchang Powder toxins in the body, or other reasons.
Standing on the top of the city, Ye Mingsheng suddenly felt weak for some reason, his heartbeat accelerated, and his chest felt tight and painful. It took him a while to recover.
In order not to affect the morale of the army, Ye Mingsheng did not make any big announcement about his physical condition. He calmly returned to the military tent where he lived under the protection of a group of soldiers, and then immediately invited Pei Zhixiu.
come over.
Although this was not the first time Pei Zhixiu had his pulse checked, what surprised Ye Mingsheng was that this time Pei Zhixiu took longer than before. The pulse check lasted for nearly three minutes and it was not over yet. This made Ye Mingsheng a little surprised.
Ming Sheng, I feel a little uneasy...
Seeing that he would soon be able to clean up the mess left by the original owner and enjoy the treatment of the privileged class, Ye Mingsheng did not want to start over again.
"Stick your tongue out."
While Ye Mingsheng was thinking wildly, Pei Zhixiu finished diagnosing the pulse, but before Ye Mingsheng could ask for the result, she made another request.
When Ye Mingsheng obediently stuck out his tongue, Pei Zhixiu observed it for a while, then nodded slightly and whispered to Ye Mingsheng:
"Now I have good news and bad news, which one are you going to hear first?"
When Ye Mingsheng heard this, a wry smile appeared on his face, he shook his head and said, "Then just listen first!"
"Your situation this time is not caused by the residual toxins in the body." Although Pei Zhixiu's voice was still soft, the meaning expressed in his voice was very confident.
"What about the bad news?" Ye Mingsheng nodded and asked:
In response to Ye Mingsheng's inquiry, Pei Zhixiu did not answer immediately, but looked at Ye Mingsheng deeply, which made Ye Mingsheng a little flustered, and then said in a low voice:
"Your situation this time was caused by excessive mental exertion, poor rest, and qi and blood stagnation."
"General Ye, you are now in your prime, so there is no problem for the time being, but if things continue like this..."
Pei Zhixiu did not continue speaking at the end of the sermon, but Ye Mingsheng knew what she meant.
After a moment of silence, Ye Mingsheng forced a smile on his face and nodded with a smile.
"I'm going to make some medicine for you and I'll bring it to you later!"
Pei Zhixiu confessed, then picked up the medicine box and wanted to leave the military tent. However, as soon as she turned around, she heard Ye Mingsheng's deep voice behind her.
"Miss Pei, can I ask you a question?"
After hearing Ye Mingsheng's question, Pei Zhixiu, who had her back to Ye Mingsheng, smoothed the hair scattered on her forehead and said calmly without asking what question Ye Mingsheng asked:
"The Zhou Dynasty has been coveting palaces for a long time. Even if you don't have General Ye, there will be General Wang and General Li. There will always be someone who will do this... I don't blame you!"
After saying this, Pei Zhixiu moved lightly and walked out of the military tent.
Seeing Pei Zhixiu's generous military uniform and her graceful back that could not be concealed when she left, Ye Mingsheng shook his head helplessly. This woman was really smart and scary. Before she even spoke, she already understood that she wanted to
What to say.
After drinking the decoction sent by Pei Zhixiu in the evening, Ye Mingsheng felt that his body was much better and he had regained his strength.
Although Pei Zhixiu had issued a warning, facing the current situation, Ye Mingsheng did not allow himself to rest completely. As soon as his body recovered, he summoned his subordinates again and held a military intelligence meeting to understand the latest situation on the front line.
"I would like to report to the Commander-in-Chief that the palace troops currently present around Ryugyong are all soldiers sent from nearby prefectures and counties. There are still no Japanese soldiers preparing for the war at Zhushan Port."
Chen Yannian, who sat to the left of Ye Mingsheng, was the first to speak at the meeting.
Seeing Chen Yannian's weather-beaten face full of exhaustion, Ye Mingsheng couldn't help but feel a little respect in his heart.
Although he is the commander-in-chief, because he is somewhat self-aware, he does not dare to talk about military affairs on paper. He only helps with some coordination and overall work. The main command of the army, deployment and other tasks mainly fall on Chen Yannian. What can Liu Jingcheng do?
Down, and to be able to hold on until now with only two thousand soldiers, Chen Yannian should be the main contributor!
"How many palace soldiers are there now outside the city?" Ye Mingsheng asked, the question that concerned him most.
"About four thousand to five thousand people. Although these people are large in number, they lack training and heavy weapons for attacking the city. Therefore, there is no danger in Liujing City for the time being. Please rest assured, Commander!" Chen Yannian thought for a moment and said.
:
Chen Yannian's answer undoubtedly gave Ye Mingsheng a reassurance and relaxed his tense nerves. After nodding slightly, Ye Mingsheng turned his attention to Lin Huaiwu and asked:
"How many more people do you have?"
Hearing Ye Mingsheng's inquiry, Lin Huaiwu was stunned for a moment, and then said truthfully: "Less than five hundred people!"
Seeing that the number of his men was so tight, Ye Mingsheng frowned tightly and was embarrassed to mobilize his troops. After thinking for a moment, he turned to look at Liu Shilin who was sitting aside and said nothing:
Chapter completed!
