But it was said that Chen Mu felt that the blood transfusion was too slow with one barb, so he penetrated the other wrist with a barb to transmit blood.
Hold a piece of cloth to secure your hands, so that one person is standing and the other is lying down.
To be honest, Chen Mu really didn't want to make this risky move of blood transfusion. If the blood shape didn't match and Huo Quxie couldn't be saved, then he would definitely be arrested and beheaded as a murderer of the Shu army general.
But now that I have done this, I have no regrets. Now I can only pray in my heart for God’s blessing.
From the first half of the night to the second half of the night, I stood on the bed with my hands raised, not moving at all, and my hands and feet were already sore and numb that it was difficult to move.
When it was time to get out of bed, Qi Zeguang and Lin Qiye carried him down.
"Will the general survive?"
After so long of blood transfusion, Chen Mu now looked pale. He waved his hands with difficulty: "It all depends on God's will. If you still have energy tomorrow morning, it will be fine."
Lin Qiye nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, sir. I'll help you go to the neighbor's tent to rest first."
Early the next morning.
"Sir! Sir!"
While still sleeping, Lin Qiye's shout suddenly came to her ears, and then she felt that he had quickly arrived in front of her bed.
That night, he had been worried about Huo Quxie's life and safety. When he heard that someone was coming, Chen Mu lost sleep and hurriedly got up.
"how's it going?!"
Lin Qiye hadn't said a word yet, but when he saw the joy on his face, Chen Mu felt reassured.
"General Huo is awake! Go over and take a look!"
"good."
Now I put on my shoes and ran outside the tent.
Nowadays, the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching. Perhaps due to the geographical reasons, I can already feel a bit of biting coldness when I go out this early in the morning.
After shivering, he entered the camp.
At some point, the blood stains on Huo Quxie's body had been wiped clean, and the bedding had been replaced with a new one. At this moment, Huo Quxie was lying on the bed looking at himself.
His face and eyes were still sluggish, and although he was awake, he would not be able to get out of bed for a long time to come.
"It's getting better."
Huo Quxie showed a forced smile, and then said in a weak voice: "You told me Qi Ye...Thank you, Brother Chen, for giving me half your life in exchange for ours."
To the ancients, Chen Mu's actions last night were actually to use his own essence and blood to save others, which would consume Yangshou, hence the saying, half a life for one.
Chen Mu smiled heartily: "It doesn't matter whether I change it or not, just live."
Huo Quxie nodded slightly, then looked at Lin Qiye and Zhang Xu, "Ahem, now I am in such a condition that I cannot command the battle for the time being. Lin Qiye, Zhang Xu, come here."
"yes!"
When he heard that Huo Quxie began to allocate future military affairs, Chen Mu felt that he was an outsider. He wanted to go back to the weapons room to have a look, but the next words Huo Quxie said almost made him fall.
"From today on, everything in the Shu army will be under the command of Chen Mu. You two must do your best to obey and assist, do you understand?"
Hearing this, Lin Qiye looked excited and delighted: "Yes!"
We know that in the battle last night, it was because of Mr. that the group of Tatar soldiers were defeated and fled.
This was the first battle he had won since he joined the army. Lin Qiye not only had no objection to Chen Mujiu being the commander-in-chief of the army, but actually had a little expectation.
Zhang Xu originally thought that the position of general would fall to him this time, but when he heard Huo Quxie's instructions, his eyes suddenly widened and he said slightly angrily.
"General, there is a vacancy in the post of general. According to military regulations, the deputy general should take over the position. How can you...how can you hand over ten thousand sergeants to a...blacksmith?"
Regarding Huo Quxie's instructions, Zhang Xu felt like he had been slapped hard. After serving in the army for so many years, in the eyes of this general, he was not as good as a blacksmith.
"Sir is the master I invited. His wisdom is beyond your comparison. Furthermore, I, Huo Quxie, have made arrangements. Do I still need to discuss it with you?"
Hearing this, Zhang Xu lowered his head and bowed his hands: "I don't dare!"
"Everyone get out!"
After a while of scolding, Lieutenant Zhang glanced at Chen Mu coldly and followed the others out.
When Huo Quxie asked him to temporarily take over as the commander-in-chief of the Shu army, Chen Mu was confused, but by this time, he calmed down happily.
He slowly came to the bed and sat down, and asked calmly: "The general really thinks highly of me. There are more than 10,000 people in the Shu army, and they are in my hands. Do you know that this is my first time on the battlefield?"
As the deputy general said, during wartime, if a general dies due to injury or illness, he does have the right to directly transfer military power, but there is no doubt that the deputy general will take over.
Chen Mu could not have imagined that the power of the general would suddenly be handed over to an ordinary person like himself.
It can be seen that war is a game in which human lives are gambled.
Huo Quxie showed a faint smile: "Not to mention you, I think I'm quite crazy, ahem... I chose you to be the temporary commander on a whim. You really don't regard the life of the Shu army as a human life."
Chen Mu asked again: "Why?"
"I heard Qiye say, just because the battle last night... was won because of you."
Hearing that this was the reason, Chen Mu couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "I admit this, but the general knows that the victory last night was more luck than mine. When it comes to commanding operations, I don't think he can be better than that deputy general."
Hearing this, Huo Quxie shook his head to express his disapproval.
"Brother Chen, do you usually read history?"
"how?"
"I really like to read the history of the founding of the country in the past dynasties. I wonder if Brother Chen has ever discovered that the famous founding generals of the past dynasties... are mostly street gangsters and mountain bandits. These people have never read any books or seen much of the world.
But he was born to lead troops in war."
Huo Quxie stared at Chen Mu, paused and then said: "Some things are brought by birth. This time, I am going to risk the lives of ten thousand people in the Shu army... Mr. Bet is the son of destiny!"
Due to his injury, Huo Quxie's voice was low, but what he said was plausible. He stared at himself with an extremely serious look.
When Chen Muruo made excuses here, he seemed to have lost courage.
"General, he must do his best, but... have you ever thought about this question, I am a scholar and a blacksmith, will those thousand cavalry commanders be willing to listen to my orders?"
Huo Quxie showed an intriguing smile: "I'm definitely not willing, but I think sir, there will be a way to make them obey."
Chen Mu: "..."
At that moment, with Chen Mu's help, Huo Quxie wrote down the appointment and handed the seal to Chen Mu.
Now that the Shu army's position was no longer suitable for Huo Quxie to treat, Chen Mu called a few sergeants and sent him to Wujiang City to recuperate.
Standing alone in front of the tent, Chen Mu Youran let out a long sigh. Hearing the tone of the deputy general just now, he must have been dissatisfied with him.
The deputies in the army did not obey him, so naturally the other Qianqi commanders did not need to say much.
