"Brother, you are injured, so let's take a break first and let the medical officer treat you the wound before going." The auxiliary soldier who distributed the small sign kindly advised.

Li Ergou shook his head and rejected the military household's kindness: "I will be able to eat braised pork after I go three more trips."

"You have been hit three arrows, and you have to go three more times, and I don't know if you are still alive." The military household advised. He said in his heart: You can only change a small brand when you run twice, and you can only eat braised pork after running six times. If you can survive three times, you will be lucky enough to tell the fortunes. If you can survive three times, you will still have six times back and forth? It's simply impossible. This is obviously because the prince-consort doesn't want the prisoners to eat braised pork. These days, a steamed bun is more valuable than human life. Can you still eat braised pork for the prisoners?

"Treat the wound before going." A military household advised.

"It's too late. After treating the wound, it's too late to finish six trips." Li Ergou raised his head and looked at Tianse and said.

Li Ergou just asked someone to cut off the arrow shaft, and then pushed the shield cart again. After half an hour, he came back again. This time he was hit by two more arrows, one on his arm and the other on his shoulder.

"I've been hit by five arrows, so why are you still going? It's good to go four times back and forth, but if you go again, you'll be dead!" said the military household.

"I have already run four times, and I can eat braised pork in two more times. Don't stop me." Li Ergou insisted on going. No one could stop him. Li Ergou went again. When he came back, he was shot in the back. But he ignored the hard dissuasion of others and decided to go there in the end.

In the evening, Li Ergou, who had finished his last trip, came back. This time he was hit by another arrow on his back and another arrow on his leg, and he had become a bloody man.

It was getting late, and the attacking new army reached the meal time. The medical officer wanted to treat Li Ergou's wound, but was rejected: "Medical officer, it's too late. It's time to be at dinner time. You've treated me with the wound and it's too late to eat. Let me finish the meal first and then treat the wound."

Li Ergou received a bite of an iron lunch box and lined up to make meals. This iron lunch box was designed by Zhao Peng himself. It is lightweight and can be carried during marching. The lunch box is square and has a lid on it. You can serve rice when eating. You can also put towels and other daily necessities in the lunch box when marching on weekdays. It is designed to imitate the military lunch box of later generations. However, there were no aluminum products in this era, so iron products were replaced.

With three small brands, Li Ergou received a portion of cabbage-stewed tofu and a portion of braised pork. When the hothead soldier saw the three small brands, he felt incredible. At first, he thought that this guy was afraid that he had stole someone else's small brand. Later, after the military household who issued the brand testified, he added a large piece of braised pork to Li Ergou's lunch box cover.

After the hot-headed soldier who made Li Ergou's lunch box, he pointed to the rice bucket next to him and said to him: "If the rice is full, you can go to add more rice if it is not enough."

Li Ergou greedily smelled the fragrant braised pork. He first poured the cabbage and tofu on the lid of the lunch box into the lunch box, then poured the braised pork into the lunch box, stirred it evenly, and ate in big mouthfuls. He quickly finished a large box of rice, picked up the lunch box, went to the wooden bucket to make a large box of rice, and then started eating again. After eating three boxes of rice, the remaining large piece of braised pork still did not move. Li Ergou made the fourth box of rice. The vegetable soup and gravy had been eaten, and there was no other dish. Li Ergou started to eat braised pork. He chewed it in small bites, and he felt that this was the most delicious delicacy in the world.

As he was eating, Li Ergou, who had braised pork in his mouth, suddenly fell backwards and fell to the ground, but had a satisfied smile on his face.

"Save people quickly!" the people next to him shouted.

The medical officer ran in quickly, checked Li Ergou's heartbeat pulse, and found that he was still breathing, so he nervously treated the wound, stopped bleeding, and applied medicine to bandage the wound...

I heard that a prisoner soldier ran back and forth six times just to eat a bite of braised pork. Now he has lost blood and has fallen into a coma. Zhao Peng has rushed over to participate in the rescue of Li Ergou.

I don’t know how long it took, Li Ergou slowly woke up. When he heard that it was the chief who saved him himself, he rolled out of the stretcher, knelt on the ground, knelt in front of Zhao Peng and kowtowed and thanked: "Thank you for saving your life! My Li Ergou's life will be yours from now on!"

"Get up quickly and lie on the stretcher!" Zhao Peng said, "As long as we join us, we will all be brothers from now on! As long as the brothers have a breath left, I will not abandon any brother who still has a chance to survive!"

Li Ergou was moved and burst into tears: "General! I, Li Ergou, are willing to die for the general!"

Zhao Peng said: "Send Li Ergou to a field hospital and let him recover from his injuries."

The medical officer sent Li Ergou to the field hospital in the camp. The field hospital was a camp made of tents. In addition to the medical officers, the people working here also had soldiers wearing wingless black gauze hats and white flying fish suits. The soldiers were cleaning gauze and boiling water to disinfect. When one of the soldiers approached him, Li Ergou realized that it was actually a female soldier!

"Female soldier, or Jinyiwei!" Li Ergou said in surprise.

"It's not surprising that female soldiers," Gao Wencai walked in at some point. "Women do things like cleaning gauze, boiling water to disinfect, and taking care of the wounded. So there are many female soldiers in our new army's medical officers and auxiliary soldiers."

In the next few days, Li Ergou never participated in Yizhen's siege again, but lay in the field hospital for treatment. The food in the field hospital was pretty good, with three meals a day, breakfast was white rice porridge, steamed buns, pickles, fermented tofu and half a salted duck egg; lunch was white rice, fried cucumber meat slices or dried tofu, roasted eggplant or braised tofu, green vegetable tofu egg soup or cabbage tofu soup; dinner was snow vegetable meat noodles. Li Ergou had several days of recuperation in the field hospital. After recovering from injury, he was directly upgraded from an auxiliary soldier to a new army soldier, and he was sent to armor and became a heavy armored spearman, but that was later.

The next morning, the attack of the Nanjing New Army on Yizhen City Wall officially kicked off. Yesterday, the attacking Nanjing New Army filled out several moats. Today's attack directly pushed up various heavy siege weapons.

The drums were rumbling in the Nanjing Ming army camp, and the auxiliary soldiers composed of prisoners pushed various siege weapons out of the camp and slowly pushed towards the direction of Yizhen City Wall. The prisoners who siege today were not the same group as the prisoners who filled the trenches yesterday. They were five thousand people yesterday, and another five thousand people were resting in the camp. Today, they siege the city, and the five thousand people who siege yesterday stayed in the camp to rest. The five thousand people who were resting yesterday were responsible for pushing the siege weapons up today.

Various siege weapons advanced five hundred steps away from the city wall and stopped advancing. The artillery battalion of the Nanjing New Army began to shell the top of Yizhen's city.

Zhao Peng personally stood in a tower-looking car and directed the gunners to shoot at the top of the city.

Twenty three hundred kilograms of general cannons, twenty five hundred kilograms of Franchise, and ten red barbarian cannons borrowed from the Zheng family navy began to attack the city.

The red cannons were all moved from the ship. Ten eighteen-pound red cannons fired volleys. A round of shells hit the city wall. The bricks burst and pieces fell from the city wall. The bombardment of the red cannons was shocking. Every time the shells were shot, the rebels at the city walls felt that the city walls under their feet were shaking violently, as if the city walls were about to collapse at any time.

However, the fire rate of the Red Cannon is too slow. When used on the ship, the loading speed can be faster because of the various auxiliary devices on the ship. However, it is too troublesome to load on land. The loading speed is too slow, and it can only be launched for about seven to eight minutes. It will take several days to rely entirely on the Red Cannon to collapse the city wall. Therefore, Zhao Peng just asked the cannon to suppress the cannons on the city to ensure that various siege weapons can rely on the city to the top.
