Chen Chong and others left the horse market. Chen Chong arranged for Xu Shu to go to the Su market to buy some emergency herbs for external application, and then checked the injuries of several people. One person should have lost his footing during the push and the back of his head hit the ground. It was considered a concussion, but there was no serious injury.
It was a serious problem, but the other three were not optimistic. One had a broken leg, one had a broken rib, and one was very troublesome, but suffered a spinal dislocation and passed out directly from the severe pain.
When Xu Shu came back, he brought some ointments and herbs that could be applied directly, some of which were not ordered by Chen Chong. He also bought some needles, threads, and knives. He also borrowed a carriage from a Han merchant in the horse market to save people.
Sometimes he is racing against death, but Chen Chong's medical skills can only be said to be experienced rather than superb. He carried the four people into the car, reluctantly letting the two who were still groaning stop the pain, and then asked them where they lived.
Where.
The Jie man with a broken rib introduced with gratitude that these people were originally Jie people from the same tribe, but they were responsible for helping Qiqu of the tribe sell some cattle and sheep to the horse market. There were originally some companions around, but
Intimidated by the reputation of King Zuo Xian, he did not dare to take any action. Now Chen Chong led four people to leave the horse market, and his companions should follow behind. Chen Chong noticed that there were still some people following him not far or near behind him, but the number
There weren't many, so I didn't take it seriously. It turned out to be Jie people from the same tribe as them, so that would be much easier.
So he turned around and called out seven or eight Jie people directly, asking them to take care of their companions. Then he drove the carriage and asked one person to guide the way. The Jie people behind led the horses to find their tribe.

These Jie people all speak Chinese very fluently, which is higher than the level of most Huns. Most of their ancestors were moved from the Western Regions by the Huns. Their pronunciation is no longer known, and they are not willing to learn the Xiongnu dialect.
The weaker the tribe, the more they yearn for and admire the big man. Therefore, over the years, the Jie people have become the most Chinese tribe among the Xiongnu tribes. Thanks to this, Chen Chong drove all the way to ask about the current situation of the Jie people.
A Jie man, who can be regarded as a worldly know-how, was the first to introduce: Nowadays, Jie people are not a minority among the Xiongnu, with about 30,000 people, but they are not concentrated. Most of them are divided into small tribes to farm and herd under the orders of the kings.
They don’t even have a single household, so they can only be oppressed by the Huns as the lowest class. Whether it’s buying, selling or taxing, the Jie people are the ones who are most exploited.
Their tribe is relatively large among the Jie people, with about 400 people, and it is considered to be affiliated with the Juqu tribe. The Huns in the Juqu tribe are a tribe that is a mixture of Huns and people from the Western Regions. Because most of them are good at arithmetic and business,
Most of them served as Juqu in various tribes and royal courts, so they were called Juqu. The current Daqiequ also came from Juqu. He once lived in Lushui all the year round, so he was also called Lushuihu. Jieren and Ju
The ancestors of the Qu tribe are somewhat related, so there is less discrimination, and their tribe develops better than other Jie people.
"According to the elders of the villain tribe, they are originally from the Shi Kingdom in the Western Regions, so we also take Shi as our surname. It's just that the villain doesn't know what kind of country the Stone Kingdom is. Where is he? How many people are there? But
It won't be a big country even if you think about it, otherwise the ancestors of the little people would not come here." When the Jie man said this, the sadness was evident in his words. Chen Chong stared at it for a while, savoring the loneliness of not having a motherland.<
/p>
Then the Jie man's expression gradually turned to panic, and he asked Chen Chong: "Master Taishou, now that you said those words in the royal court, if King Zuo Xian sued Lord Shan Yu and oppressed the villain tribe, then
What should I do?"
Chen Chong was speechless. Wei Yan rode a horse and walked aside. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "Mr. Chen is a good man. Please be at ease. Mr. Chen will not let go and watch. I said that Mr. Chen was benevolent in Lishi in February to help the victims. How can you wait?"
Didn’t you hear that?”
After hearing this, the Jie man relaxed a little and said with a smile: "The reputation of the prefect is not only known to the villain, but also the entire Bingzhou. When they heard that Prefect Xing was resigning, everyone was curious about who would come, but unexpectedly it was
Lord Taishou, we and other clan leaders said that many kings are uneasy because of this."
"Oh?" Wei Yan became curious and asked: "Chen Jun must have never been to Bingzhou before. Have you heard of his reputation?"
The Jie man was quite excited when he said it: "I remember it must have been the third year of Guanghe. Before that, the Han Heavenly Army led an expedition to Xianbei with 30,000 cavalry. The troops were divided into three groups, but they were also defeated by the Xianbei people in three groups.
After the defeat, even Yunzhong County and Yanmen County were occupied by the Xianbei people. From then on, the Xianbei people went south three times, and the Chanyu was defeated in every battle. From then on, the tribes secretly said that the Chanyu feared Xianbei, perhaps even more than
Afraid of big men!"
"At that time, the kings all said that within a few decades, no one would be able to control Xianbei. It turned out that the prefect seemed to be with a Han clan member named Liu...Liu Bei, yes, Liu Bei,
He led 800 cavalrymen to gallop 500 miles from Macheng in three days, detoured and made a surprise attack on Danhan Mountain, and entered the royal court of the Xianbei people. They actually captured the Xianbei King Zuoxian alive. I heard that the Xianbei Shanyu was so angry that the following year
He also died of a serious illness. When the kings heard the news, they were all shocked. They often mentioned the names of the governor and Liu Bei in awe, saying that the big man was still stronger than Xianbei after all."
Chen Chong shook his head with a smile and said: "Xianbei has no King Zuo Xian, and no Chanyu, only adults and young commanders. Tan Shihuai died of old age and serious illness, and it has nothing to do with me." Speaking of Tan Shihuai, he
He was also very touched and couldn't help but sigh: "Tan Shihuai was a wise man, but he didn't expect that his son would be such a loser. At that time, Tan Shihuai was on an expedition to Dongyi, leaving his only son and Lian to guard the royal court.
For fun, Danhan Mountain was completely undefended, just like a thin veil. Xuande and I were able to capture it in one fell swoop and return the victory to the court."
Wei Yan remained noncommittal and only said: "Chen Jun's achievements don't stop there. It's just that the barbarians in the border areas don't know about it."
The Jie man was a little timid when he heard the words, but seeing Chen Chong's gentle expression, he immediately cheered up and said: "The prefect is always a great person. I heard that King Xiutu advised the Shanyu and sent more people to inquire about the prefect's recent visits.
The best thing to do is to never quarrel with adults."
Chen Chong smiled and said: "Then what did they find out?"
While talking, the group of people finally came to the Jie people's tribe. Obviously, this tribe rarely came with carriages. Several children came up to watch curiously, and they all cast their eyes from far and near. Chen Chong asked the Jie people who were talking to him while
I went to notify the leader here, and while I and the rest of the people were carrying the injured out, unexpectedly, a Jie boy next to me saw an injured person and started crying loudly, calling for his father.
The leader of the Jie people learned about the situation and rushed over with the family members of the injured. He thanked Chen Chong and comforted the family members. This leader was only in his thirties, and his name was Shi Sang. He was dressed very cleanly, but also
Showing wealth and honor, after hearing Chen Chong's identity, he could neither be humble nor arrogant, and thank Chen Chong without any mood to please. However, the family members around him were crying together, so it was difficult for him not to show a look of helplessness.
The smaller the tribe, the more important it is for the life and unity of the tribe. In today's era, most of the people who break bones can only accept their fate. If you are lucky, you will recover as before. If you are not lucky, you will be disabled for life, which will affect your life's work. Chen Chong asked Shi
Sangdao: "Brother Shi, do you have a doctor here to set bones?"
Shi Sang said helplessly: "There is a witch doctor in the clan who can cure some minor illnesses, but with this kind of injury, we can only hope that God will bless them."
Chen Chong was also prepared to have professional people handle it, but he was a bachelor after hearing this, so he simply decided to do it himself. He thought that the Xiongnu had been fighting on horseback for many years and had experience in treating fractures. However, he was disappointed, so he borrowed a felt tent.
, moved all the injured with broken bones in, raised the brazier, burned the knife, cut the wound, drained the blood, applied numbing herbs, then connected the fracture, wrapped it with two layers of willow bark, and then used
Wrap the silk cloth.
It’s just that this can only treat fractures. Chen Chong is really helpless when his spine falls off. He has neither experience nor knowledge of techniques. Surgery in this situation is tantamount to killing people, but without treatment, Chen Chong may not survive more than two months.
After struggling for many times, I finally painfully decided to give up the treatment. I could only apply more herbal medicine on him to show that I had tried my best.
When he walked out of the felt tent again, it was nearly two hours later. Chen Chong informed Shi Sang truthfully of the situation. Shi Sang accepted the result with a calm expression and thanked Chen Chong: "Your Excellency, you are not only willing to help me, the Jie clan, but also
How can Xiaohu be so virtuous when he complains of injustice and is willing to condescend to treat the Xiaohu people?" Then the results were also informed to the families of the injured. The families of the cured Jie people kowtowed to him and thanked him. There was only one woman left.
Staying in front of the tent and crying silently.
When Chen Chong saw this scene, he couldn't help but sighed to Shi Sang: "I'm just the same person as you and me. I may know more than you, but you also have qualities that I don't have. To be honest, I'm very
I admire you. As the governor of a county, it is also my dereliction of duty that such disasters can occur under my rule."
These words were so strange that Shi Sang couldn't help but laugh and said: "Xiao Hu has been grazing in Xihe for thirty-four years and has served as the prefect of Xihe for nine times. Your Excellency, you are the first to say this."
"Oh" Chen Chong asked while washing his hands with hot water: "What did the other prefects say?"
"I have never seen them, how can I possibly know what your lords have to say?" Shi Sang showed a wry smile. He suddenly saluted Chen Chong and begged: "Your Excellency, Shi Sang has a merciless request. Please give me a favor."
The prefect agrees."
Chen Chong hurriedly helped him up and sighed: "Brother Shi, as long as it's something I can do, Chen Chong will do anything he can."
Shi Sang raised his head, and Chen Chong saw the flame called longing burning in his brown eyes. He asked: "Shi Sang once heard Da Qiequ say that the prefect is the most knowledgeable person in the Han Dynasty. Shi Sang
The barbarians in the border areas have never stopped cultivating their culture, but their good intentions can be seen. Maybe the prefect will stay here tonight and talk to me about what he has seen in the capital?"
