Chapter 232: Nerchinsk Oral Letter

The hospitals and schools that were moved to Yask were temporarily placed in the houses where the Evenki people used to live. Zhao Qiang went to the hospital once and found that many wounded soldiers were no longer treated by European doctors such as Guo Youcai, but by those who were the first batch of apprentices to study medicine.

I couldn't help but feel happy about the treatment. On the way, I saw two former Daur witches helping with bandages. I was even more happy. I ordered them to go down and add meat and fish to the doctors and nurses in the hospital in the afternoon.

The elders and weak members of the tribe were also given a portion of dried meat, which also gave them some motivation.【】

During the third phase of the Dingyuan battle, a total of 1,300 wounded soldiers were sent to the hospital for treatment. Most of the injured had flesh wounds. Most of the wounded soldiers who lost too much blood or had broken arms and legs died within a few days.

, so the only wounded soldiers who can be sent to the hospital for treatment are those who can be saved. Most of the wounded soldiers have been demobilized and returned to their original troops. There are less than 300 people still in the hospital. Most of these 300 people are unlikely to return to the battlefield.

It is inevitable to be disabled. Zhao Qiang has already made arrangements for these disabled soldiers, and they have been implemented as a system. That is, after they recover from their injuries, they will all go to work for the civilians and military officers. Those who cannot be moved will be left to the civilians.

Cao sent people to take special care of him. There is a "military nursing home" planned in Yask. This is the nursing home arranged by Zhao Qiang for those soldiers who are disabled and unable to live independently. This nursing home is in conjunction with the Guanning Military General Hospital under construction.

It is one street away and covers an area of ​​50 acres. It can accommodate five to six hundred disabled soldiers. In terms of scale, it is twice as large as the Guanning Military Headquarters.

Since ancient times, the issue of the discharge of disabled soldiers has been a matter of concern to all parties. If these soldiers who sacrificed their bodies for the army cannot be properly arranged, the soldiers will not be able to feel at ease. Therefore, it is just like treating the war dead, treating the disabled

He must also pay more attention to it. As long as he has contributed to Guan Ningjun, dead or alive, Guan Ningjun will always be responsible for him. This has always been Zhao Qiang's unchanging creed.

A filial son who has been sick for a long time. When a disabled soldier who cannot even eat, drink, or take care of himself returns home, even if his relatives do not dislike it, it will increase their burden. Therefore, with a military nursing home and sending dedicated personnel to take care of them, it can not only build the cohesion and cohesion of the soldiers, but also increase the burden on them.

Centripetal force can also reduce the burden on soldiers' families, allowing them to engage in other jobs to serve Guan Ning's army. No matter how you calculate it, it is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.

Because of the war against the Qing Dynasty next year, Zhao Qiang specially asked Wei Ji to pay more attention to the hospital and must give priority to meeting their needs. For those untouchables serving in the hospital, they can also be exempted as long as they serve for three years.

Despite their humble status, those who work as doctors and nurses also enjoy the treatment of soldiers and military titles. For example, four people such as Guo Youcai are provided with life according to the treatment of the general banner. Other doctors and nurses are given military titles based on their type of work and medical skills, and new recruits in the future will be given military titles.

Hospital staff will also do the same.

Going south to fight the Qing army requires staying away from the base area. It can be said to be "overseas combat." It is impossible for injured soldiers to be transported to the rear immediately, so Zhao Qiang specifically asked Guo Youcai and the others about the field hospital, and the other party said that it could be done next year.

After organizing a team of 200 doctors for Guan Ningjun in the spring, Zhao Qiang breathed a sigh of relief and laughed. Guo Youcai and the others also asked Duncan and Guo Youshou when they would return from Macau. Zhao Qiang told them truthfully that it would probably take two more days.

Months of time, and promised them that once Duncan and the others come back, you guys can leave the hospital and devote yourself to places that need you more. This promise made Guo Youcai and the others couldn't help but smile, and they were so happy for each other.

Zhao Qiang did not go to the school. Compulsory Chinese learning has been implemented. Children of all ethnic groups must be sent to school to receive Chinese teaching as long as they are over six years old. Their parents, regardless of whether they are free people or untouchables, must also participate in Chinese language training regularly. Guan Ningjun

The work of Chineseizing foreign soldiers into the Chinese language started as early as the formation of the army. However, due to the numerous wars in the past few months, the soldiers did not have time to receive Chinese education. They could only learn some simple Chinese such as military commands, so the effect was ineffective.

Zhao Qiang also wants to change this situation quickly and use the six or seven months of rest to speed up the Chineseization process. However, there are too few teachers and teaching materials, and it is impossible for everyone to accept Chinese education in a short time.

Therefore, one of the things Zhao Qiang had to do was to go south to buy school certificates and bring some Han students there. For this reason, Zhao Qiang asked Liu De to make a list for himself, listing all the relevant school certificates and equipment needed by the school.

I'd better buy them all when I go south.

After nearly a month of long waiting, on the fourth day of November, the team sent to Nerchinsk to deliver the message finally came back. They brought back the latest situation of the Rakshasa people and a message from their new governor. The reason why it is said that

Oral message, because the Russians in Nerchinsk did not give them any reply, but after learning about the situation, they verbally promised to negotiate with Guan Ning's army.

"The Rakshasa people changed their governor. When the boys arrived, the person who received the letter was one of their imperial ministers from the Rakshasa capital city, named Goluo." The person who escorted the two Rakshasa soldiers to Nerchinsk was the original one.

Dorjis, the flag bearer of the 1st Cavalry Regiment, is from Daur. He was one of the residents captured by Hu Wang and others in Mergen. Because he knew equestrian skills, he was selected as a cavalryman when the cavalry regiment was later expanded.

After accumulating two military merits, he was promoted to a small flag.

Dorjes recalled the scene when they arrived at Nerchinsk: "The city of Nerchinsk was very solidly built, and the city was very big, bigger than the smaller Rakshasa city. It was very lively, and there were all kinds of people there.

When we arrived at the city gate, we saw many caravans coming and going with their things. The Rakshasa tax collector was very happy to collect the money. After the two Rakshasa soldiers and the gate guard explained their purpose,

They were very surprised, because they didn’t know our details, and they just thought that our Guan Ning Army was about to attack, so they were so frightened that they immediately closed the city gate, and then rushed into the city to tell their officials.”

"After the Rakshasa officials received the letter from the commander-in-chief, they asked the younger ones to wait for a while, and then went to discuss it. After they came out, they told the younger ones that they were willing to negotiate with the commander-in-chief, but according to the usual practice, our Guanning Army must ask Nerchinsk

Send a formal delegation, only then will the Rakshasa people be willing to negotiate with us."

"Oh, by the way, the Rakshasa people told us that their imperial minister has arrived in Danibuchu. He is now the new governor and represents their emperor's authority in the east. Therefore, if our Guan Ning Army wants to negotiate, we must

The commander-in-chief must go to Nerchinsk in person, and only then will they be willing to negotiate with us."

After listening to Dorjes' account, Zhao Qiang and Liu De glanced at each other and asked Dorjes, "Did the Rakshasa people say they would send troops to avenge their former governor and drive us away?"

Dorjes tilted his head and thought for a while: "No, the Rakshasa people only talked about the negotiations, and they didn't talk about anything else to us."

"Okay, you have worked hard all the way, go down and get ten taels of silver each, and then go and have a rest."

Seeing that Duojisi had nothing to say, Zhao Qiang waved to him to take the two Russian soldiers down. After the three left, Zhao Qiang sat down and drank tea before saying to Liu De:

"How sincere do you think the Rakshasa people are in negotiating?"

Liu De blurted out without thinking: "Three points!"

"Three points?" Zhao Qiang asked with great interest: "Sir, why did you say that the sincerity of the Rakshasa people is only three points? What Xiaoqi just said was clear. The Rakshasa people seem to be very afraid of us, and they have never said a big thing.

So, the Rakshasa people really want to negotiate with us, so why do they have to be sincere?"

After hearing this, Liu De laughed and said: "Isn't what the commander said an irony? According to my subordinates, this Rakshasa people have a new governor, who is a minister of the imperial court? He must have a very important position in front of their emperor. Such people are usually

He is arrogant and arrogant, and his eyes can't tolerate sand. Moreover, he has never fought against my Guan Ning army before, so he doesn't know how powerful we are. Therefore, the new governor must look down on us. He only thinks that we are as vulnerable as the Tatars. It's a fluke.

They won Vlasov and occupied their territory, so there is absolutely no sincerity in negotiating with us. If my subordinates guessed correctly, I am afraid that the new governor of Rakshasa must be busy mobilizing troops and generals now, thinking about how to defeat us.

Kill them all. This negotiation is just an attempt to find out our bottom and delay time."

I have heard of Goluo's famous name Zhao Qiang, because it was this man who signed the Qing-Russian-Nerchinsk Treaty with Soetu. He came to the east to deceive and deceive, and used various means to scare the Manchus.

In the end, the other party signed a treaty that was of great benefit to Russia, and allowed the Manchus to cede a large area of ​​land in exchange for the favor of the Russians and to ensure the so-called peace outside the customs. Such a person is by no means easy to deal with, so Zhao Qiang does not believe him at all

He was really willing to negotiate with himself, but because he did not expect that Goluo would appear in the east in advance, Zhao Qiang was also a little surprised and did not think of how to deal with this new situation.

If Zhao Qiang remembered correctly, Goro should have set off from Moscow to the East in the 23rd year of Kangxi's reign, but now it was one year earlier. This caught him somewhat off guard. He was surprised and could only sigh with emotion that the butterfly's wings were finally flapping.

Liu De didn't know what Zhao Qiang was thinking. Seeing that the commander was so absorbed in his thoughts, he didn't dare to disturb him. He stood quietly and waited with his hands down.

After a moment of silence, Zhao Qiang came to his senses and immediately asked: "Since the Rakshasa people may not really want to negotiate with us, what do you think I should do, sir?"

"Since ancient times, the so-called negotiation is just a smoke, a means used when both sides of the war are weak. Now that the commander-in-chief actively wants to talk to the Rakshasa people, he also has the intention of taking advantage of the Rakshasa people. Therefore, my subordinates believe that since the Rakshasa people

If they don't refuse to talk to us, let's talk to them." Liu De said what he meant. Regardless of whether the Rakshasa people are sincere or not, they still have to meet with each other for a while to get a feel for it. It's winter now,

Although Guan Ning's army can't move, how can the Rakshasa people do it? So both sides can't do anything to each other, but it's still possible to negotiate. The key lies in how to negotiate and what price to pay. If they really can't reach an agreement,

, is Guan Ningjun afraid of his new governor?

Seeing Zhao Qiang nodding in agreement with his words, Liu De continued: "But the commander is a man of ten thousand gold. Of course, he should not venture into dangerous places lightly. The Rakshasa people are vicious and cunning, with impure nature and are definitely not good people. They want the commander to talk to them."

, It’s not An’s good intention. If the commander goes, they will definitely detain him and threaten our army, so I think it’s better for me to go to Nerchinsk on behalf of the commander.”

While Liu De was talking, Zhao Qiang was also thinking about whether to go or not. Judging from the time, it was impossible for him to go to Nerchinsk at the moment because the food problem has not yet been solved. If he went to Nerchinsk, he might be hungry at home.

He's dead. But if he doesn't go, who can fight against Goluo, an old fox? I was worried, but I heard Liu De volunteering, and my heart suddenly moved, isn't Liu De also an old fox? When two foxes collide, what will happen?

It’s going to be a good show. I didn’t think anything else at the moment and said happily:

"Forget it, if a gentleman comes forward to negotiate with the Rakshasa people, we will definitely not suffer. Without further ado, he will set off tomorrow. I will draft the contents of the negotiation tonight so that he can have a basis for talking with the Rakshasa people.
