Once civil strife breaks out in the Jingnan Army, the consequences will be disastrous!
Cai Yaozu can only pray now, Geng Jingzhong must hold on.
Logically speaking, Cai Yaozu should take advantage of Geng Jingzhong's sanity to persuade Geng Jingzhong to make a will in advance.
As long as there is a will, even if Geng Jingzhong suddenly disappears, the Jingnan Army will not break out in civil strife on the spot!
However, looking at Geng Jingzhong today, Cai Yaozu could not say such a thing no matter what.
He was afraid that he might say something wrong and offend Geng Jingzhong. Before he died, he would take Cai Yaozu with him even if he said anything.
Geng Jingzhong's wound couldn't stop bleeding. Even though the military doctors kept giving him various blood-enhancing and qi-enhancing medicinal materials, Geng Jingzhong's complexion kept getting worse.
The rise and fall of his chest became weaker and weaker, his face became paler and paler, and even his speech began to become intermittent.
The eyes are confused and the mind is gradually becoming unclear!
Cai Yaozu stayed by Geng Jingzhong's bedside. Seeing Geng Jingzhong getting weaker and weaker, his face became darker and darker.
The expressions on the faces of other people in the tent were similar, and everyone had a bad premonition in their hearts.
Geng Jingzhong is afraid that he will die!
Even Geng Jingzhong himself was aware of this problem. He opened his mouth and breathed desperately, looking like a fish exposed to the air.
Military doctors are constantly busy, changing gauze, giving medicine, cleaning wounds...
The smell of blood in the big tent is getting stronger and stronger!
But the bleeding just couldn't stop!
Finally, a military doctor suggested using a red-hot iron to boil the wound to stop the bleeding.
Several military doctors deliberated for a while, but no one could make up their mind.
The method of using a soldering iron to stop bleeding is actually not new. It is often used in the military to stop bleeding of injured ordinary soldiers.
Burning a wound with a soldering iron will definitely have a hemostatic effect, but it can easily lead to wound infection, sepsis and other problems.
It is used to treat injuries of ordinary soldiers, so there is no big problem.
Ordinary soldiers have no say. Regardless of whether the disease is cured or not, some treatment is good.
However, no one dares to use this method on Geng Jingzhong rashly!
If it weren't for the fact that there was nothing he could do now, and Geng Jingzhong would die if he couldn't stop the bleeding, no one would dare to use this method.
Geng Jingzhong opened his mouth and spoke in a weak voice.
"use!"
"Use it!"
"Hurry up and use it on me to stop the bleeding!"
"..."
After hearing this, several military doctors no longer had any scruples and began to prepare to use a soldering iron to stop the bleeding.
Light the fire, disinfect, prepare gold sore medicine...
There was a squeaking sound, which was the sound made by the iron being pressed on the skin and flesh, burning the skin.
The smell of burning hair and the aroma of barbecue wafted instantly.
Geng Jingzhong, who was lying on the couch almost motionless like a dead fish, suddenly burst out with energy.
His body twitched, he struggled hard, and let out shrill wails!
But, this isn't the end yet!
The wound on Geng Jingzhong's body was very narrow and long. Using a soldering iron to stop the bleeding was not enough to just burn it.
Bah! Bah! Bah!
The squeaking sounds continued one after another, Geng Jingzhong's voice had become hoarse, and there was a burning stench all over his body.
His situation looks even worse!
The only good thing is that the wounds on Geng Jingzhong's body no longer oozed blood, and the bleeding was finally stopped.
Seeing this scene, everyone breathed a sigh of relief!
However, at this time, Geng Jingzhong had already fainted from the severe pain.
Cai Yaozu took a deep breath and quickly turned to the generals of the Jingnan Army and gave instructions.
"Everyone, please leave. Your Majesty needs to rest!"
"I will inform everyone later when the prince wakes up."
Cai Yaozu's status in the Jingnan Army was not low. At this time, he was qualified to stand up and speak on behalf of Geng Jingzhong.
When the generals heard this, they didn't say anything more and left Geng Jingzhong's tent one after another and dispersed.
On the one hand, it calms the morale of the troops and prevents them from causing chaos!
On the one hand, we must also be prepared for battle to prevent the Qing army from taking advantage of the situation when Geng Jingzhong was seriously injured and the Jingnan army was leaderless to lead troops to attack.
These generals also have a lot of things to be busy with.
After everyone left, Cai Yaozu grabbed the military doctors with a solemn expression and asked.
"How is the prince's health?"
"When will you wake up?"
The leading military doctor glanced around and spoke in a low voice.
"Mr. Cai, even my subordinates don't know!"
"The prince lost a lot of blood. Even if the bleeding is stopped now, the body will still suffer a lot!"
"In addition, the soldering iron to stop bleeding will have serious sequelae..."
"Now we can only say that we are hanging on for the time being. It may not be cured. We really can't say for sure."
In fact, what the military doctor said was quite conservative.
He was trying his best to find something that Cai Yaozu would like to hear!
But I am actually very pessimistic about Geng Jingzhong's injury.
Whether Geng Jingzhong can survive this time really depends on whether God will give him face.
Cai Yaozu waved his hand and dismissed the military doctor.
The expression on his face kept changing, wondering if it was time to plan an escape route for himself in advance!
Don't tell me that Geng Jingzhong is dying now.
Even if he was lucky enough to survive, how could a eunuch continue to serve the public and lead the Jingnan Army, a huge interest group?
He, Cai Yaozu, also has to think about his future. He can't hang himself from a tree, right?
…
Thinking about these messy things, Cai Yaozu returned to his tent.
Keep thinking about your future!
There is no need to think about the Jingnan Army!
Geng Jingzhong has become a loyal son, and he has no heir yet, so the Jingnan Army will most likely be in trouble.
Then, there is the Qing Dynasty in the north, the Ming Dynasty in the south, and Wu Sangui in the west!
There is no need to think about the Qing Dynasty in the north!
In the entire Jingnan Army, there were many people who could choose to surrender to the Qing Dynasty to preserve their glory and wealth.
Especially those generals who led the troops, as long as they chose to surrender, the Qing Dynasty would not force them to die.
Maybe we will continue to reuse them!
However, Cai Yaozu is definitely not included in this list of people who can surrender.
He, Cai Yaozu, was Geng Jingzhong's number one adviser, and the culprit who instigated Geng Jingzhong to rebel and betray the Qing Dynasty.
In addition, he does not yet have actual military power in his hands!
He is a good candidate who can be pulled out as a typical example to scare other monkeys.
If he surrenders, he will definitely die!
And Wu Sangui in the west...
It sounds like a good choice. The relationship between Geng Jingzhong and Wu Sangui is pretty good. If he throws himself in, he will definitely be able to save his life.
Prosperity and wealth still depend on his ability!
But the biggest problem is that he is too far away from Wu Sangui now. If he wants to join Wu Sangui, he has to pass through Ming Dynasty's territory on the way.
He wants to go there alone, so maybe it’s not a big problem!
But if you take the whole family with you, that would be a bit unrealistic.
