Chapter 1717 - 840 Taking the Initiative (Part 1)
In the wounded soldiers’ camp of Quyang City, Gu Jiao had just finished distributing anti-inflammatory drugs and wound medicine to the medical officers. From the experience of several battles, the demand for these two types of medicines was huge.
The small first aid kit provided a significant amount, and before coming, the National Master Hall also gifted them a large quantity of homemade pills and ointment, and Gu Jiao had also collected a lot of herbs along the way.
Thirty medical officers were so busy in the wounded soldiers’ camp that their feet didn’t touch the ground. They might not have directly participated in the battle, but they were indeed at the rear of the battlefield, with a constant stream of wounded soldiers being sent over. They, like the cavalry, experienced a very tiring day and night.
Some medical officers really couldn’t hold on any longer and fell asleep on the ground; others nodded off at the table. Those who could barely endure were working with huge dark circles under their eyes, changing dressings, checking, and performing surgeries for the wounded soldiers.
"Go into the city and hastily get some doctors over."
After leaving the wounded soldiers’ camp, Gu Jiao instructed Master Hu.
Master Hu replied: "Yes."
The military camp is a place with extremely high efficiency; some matters that might take ten days to half a month in local government offices are completed here promptly, as orders are carried out without fail.
The first night, Master Hu went into the city and hurriedly recruited over thirty doctors. Additionally, a new candidate for city lordship was already settled.
The candidate was named Qian Wang, who had previously served as the local prefect. He was considered somewhat upright but was not a trusted confidant of the Nangong Family, so he had not been valued.
The Nangong Family abandoned the city this time without him.
Gu Jiao temporarily appointed him as the new city lord of Quyang City.
