At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Page 344

The war potential in the Sichuan Basin has been greatly damaged, and now it must go south to the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau to seize the local war potential.

If the war potential cannot be successfully obtained from Nanzhong, Liu Zhang's regime will truly collapse and there will be no salvation.

At this time, only Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng in Jingzhou still maintained a considerable part of the army.

After all, the Jingzhou army is all Liu Biao’s in name, regardless of whether the generals are from Jingzhou, they are all Liu Biao’s troops, and they have to listen to Liu Biao’s command.

Of course, whether to do it or not is one thing, but to what extent it is another.

Liu Biao also had some doubts and speculations about the tragic destruction of the only direct-line army, but there was no evidence.

Zhang Yun did stop Liu Pan. It was Liu Pan who rushed to attack the Wei army with all his blood. As a result, he was severely beaten by the Wei army. Not only did he lose his life, but he also defeated all the direct line troops.

Without his direct troops, Liu Biao immediately felt very insecure.

It is impossible to have no sense of security. Liu Biao needs a sense of security.

After much deliberation, Liu Biao decided to find a way to call Huang Zhong, Liu Pan's former subordinate and a native of Nanyang, to his side.

He appointed Huang Zhong as the general of Zhenbei Zhonglang, stationed in Xiangyang, and handed over the [-] garrison troops in Xiangyang to Huang Zhong to command.

Obviously, Liu Biao plans to train a new lineage army.

Huang Zhong was born in an ordinary poor family. He was not from a noble family. He was also older and had profound qualifications. In a sense, he was not on the same road as the Cai family and the Kuai family.

Liu Biao took a fancy to Huang Zhong's background and attitude, so he increased Huang Zhong's military power and let Huang Zhong command the Xiangyang garrison to increase his sense of security.

Cai Mao didn't stop him either.

He knew that Liu Biao was very insecure, and it was not in his interest not to give him a sense of security at this time.

However, Huang Zhong is a steady man, famous for his courage in the army, capable of leading troops, and has profound qualifications. If he becomes Liu Biao's confidant and commander of the army, it will not be a good thing for Cai Mao.

Cai Mao wondered if he could win over Huang Zhong a little bit, so as not to let Huang Zhong become a stumbling block to their entire Jingzhou strategy.

Cai Mao did not want Jingzhou to follow in the footsteps of Jiangdong and Yizhou. Looking at what happened to Jiangdong and Yizhou, Cai Mao was almost scared to death.

No, no, this is not going to work.

Jingzhou must be completely handed over to Guo Peng, and there must be no wars!

Huang Zhong is indeed capable, so he can't become an enemy.

Cai Mao asked people everywhere to inquire about Huang Zhong's news, wondering if he could find a breakthrough.

Needless to say, I found it.

Huang Zhong's only son, Huang Xu, was in poor health. He had been ill for a long time and could not find a famous doctor to cure him.

Now Huang Xu's body still hasn't been healed, Huang Zhong is depressed, Cai Mao thinks this is a good breakthrough.

So Cai Mao took the initiative to approach Huang Zhong, expressed his favor to Huang Zhong, and expressed his willingness to introduce famous doctors to Huang Zhong.

During this period, Huang Zhong was in a bad mood.

The Northern Expedition failed, the old leader was lost, and his only son kept getting sick. He sought medical treatment from many sources but to no avail. He was at the bottom of his life, but he was entrusted with the important task of commanding [-] troops to guard Xiangyang.

The fate of life made Huang Zhong, who had passed his forties, dumbfounded.

As a result, Cai Mao appeared at this time and offered to introduce a doctor to Huang Zhong's son.

Huang Zhong was relatively unfamiliar with Cai Mao, the two came from different backgrounds, had no contact with them, and Huang Zhong didn't really want to get close to them.

But the other party offered to introduce him to a famous doctor. If he could cure his son's illness, Huang Zhong didn't care who was who.

So Huang Zhong communicated with Cai Mao and asked Cai Mao where he could introduce a famous doctor to treat his son.

Cai Mao smiled mysteriously.

"Has Han Sheng ever heard that Wei Gong Guo Peng's great doctor, Guannei Hou Hua Yuanhua?"

"Huayuanization?"

Huang Zhong was a little surprised: "Of course I've heard of it. Everyone knows that Marquis Hua led the Great Medical Center to treat the world's people. It can be said that he is No. 1 when he is knighted by medical skills."

"That's right, as long as Han Sheng is willing, I can send Han Sheng's son to Yecheng, and ask Hua Yuanhua to personally treat Han Sheng's son."

"really?"

Huang Zhong looked at Cai Mao in surprise.

"really."

Cai Mao nodded.

Huang Zhong was overjoyed immediately.

Hua Tuo Yuanhua, that is the No. 1 doctor who can be enshrined in medicine. At the beginning, Guo Peng declared him as the Marquis of Guannei, which caused a small disturbance in the world.

If it wasn't for Yuan Shu's proclaiming himself emperor, which instantly grabbed the headlines, Hua Tuo would probably be even more famous.

In fact, this matter is not a big deal for Guo Peng, and he did it casually, but this story is really quite interesting.

Chapter 624 .630 Sanhua Tuo Canonization

Guo Peng and Hua Tuo knew each other not long after Guo Peng put down the Lu Bu Rebellion.

Guo Peng became the lord of the two prefectures of Qing and Yan, but Guo Dan was sick for a long time, and his condition gradually worsened. Many famous doctors came to see him, but they were helpless.

Immediately afterwards, the father-in-law Cao Song recommended Hua Tuo to Guo Peng.

Hua Tuo was his fellow villager and a native of Qiao County, Peiguo. He was a son of a noble family from a local noble family.

As a son of a gentry, Hua Tuo also lived the life that a gentry son should have. He could read and study, and lived a good life without worrying about not being able to eat.

But later, without knowing why, he became a doctor.

The status of doctors has always been embarrassing in ancient China.

Especially in the era at the end of the Han Dynasty when military exploits were emphasized and farming and mulberry were valued, medical skills, like other acrobatics, were square skills and a cheap industry. Doctors were regarded as silverfish who did not care about farming and mulberry, and were very despised.

Scholars, farmers, businessmen, this ranking is really not just for fun. Although farmers are bullied and miserable, in fact, those who engage in cheap jobs are more miserable than farmers.

Although people cannot live without doctors, it does not prevent Confucian scholars from despising doctors.

Confucian scholars even regard the family of Mr. Guo, who is engaged in law, as a second-class family. In order to maintain their status, there is nothing they cannot do.

Hua Tuo learned medical skills and became a doctor. Instead of taking the path prepared for him by his family, he became a traveling doctor, practicing medicine everywhere, and helping the world.

What a noble sentiment, right?

But it is not the case.

Hua Tuo regretted it very much, very regretful.

During the process of treating Guo Dan, Guo Peng talked with him, and he repeatedly expressed regret for his medical practice, and showed a strong desire to enter an official career, many times.

Guo Peng felt that this was very different from the image of the great doctor in his impression of hanging the pot to help the world.

Hua Tuo told Guo Peng his own story.

After listening to it, Guo Peng suddenly realized that Hua Tuo’s story experience can be described as “a fool who believed that studying is useless after graduating from high school, instead of going to college, he went to learn technology, thinking that he could become a blockbuster with technology, but he died because of his lack of academic qualifications.” Hitting a wall everywhere, being despised by people in society to the dust and regretting it is a story like this.

Hua Tuo has the opportunity to become an official. After he completes his studies, he can follow the family path to promote filial piety and integrity, and then become an official, but he doesn't want to.

Hua Tuo understands that one cannot practice medicine after becoming an official.

He is obsessed with medical skills, unable to extricate himself, unwilling to abandon medical skills in order to become an official.

The family opposed it desperately, even to the point of breaking the relationship with him.

But this is the nature of young people, rebellious.

The more you object, the more I will fight against you!Even if I become an enemy of the world, I am happy!I control my own life!

The young Hua Tuo, who was born well and never suffered, was full of rebellious second-school thoughts.

Then he ran away from home and traveled around the world, vowing to use medical skills to create a world, which will last forever, so that his family can take a good look at how far the medical skills they look down on can do!

It is true that he has been famous forever, because he really has medical talent and his medical skills are really strong.

However, at that time, he did not make a breakthrough with medical skills in the traditional sense.

On the one hand, he is needed by the dignitaries, on the other hand, he doesn't get any respect during the treatment.

He came when he was called, and went away as soon as he was called. He threw the consultation money on the ground for him to pick up, laughed at him, despised him, and even refused to let him go through the main door, so he could only go through the wrong door.

The contempt for doctors is reflected in all aspects of society. Even an ordinary old farmer can laugh at Hua Tuo openly.

What's wrong?

Why not study medicine?

How could he, a man of noble family background, have been insulted like this?

He doesn't believe in evil, he doesn't want to go back to the family that doesn't support him and be ridiculed. If he hits the south wall, he will tear down the south wall and continue hitting until he dies. He doesn't believe that he can't get ahead!

He really didn't come out on top.

He can't get ahead.

He has doubted, he has wavered, but still with the slightest wish, he persisted.

When the young blood finally cooled down, he finally realized what a stupid mistake he had made after seeing the social reality clearly.

Instead of taking the broad avenue, I want to take the trail.

He regretted it.

But it was too late.

The family disappeared due to social unrest, and he became a lucky survivor, but he had nothing to rely on.

He was born in a superior family, but he was despised, ridiculed and disrespected for a long time because he went the wrong way. Hua Tuo had a very difficult time in the middle of the gap, which made his character gradually become surly and full of hostility.

When Guo Peng first met Hua Tuo, Hua Tuo was very difficult to get along with.

He didn't reply to the question, and the reply was loud and aggressive, which seemed to be contemptuous of the powerful.

Before Guo Peng could say anything, Xu Chu beside Guo Peng was furious and glared. He drew his knife and cut off a strand of Hua Tuo's hair, and then swung his knife to kill Hua Tuo.

The genuine murderous intent rushed to his face, Hua Tuo was so frightened that he peed, and collapsed on the ground, crying and begging for mercy.

Then Guo Peng stopped Xu Chu, and Hua Tuo was not killed.

After that, Hua Tuo became "easy to get along with".

To be precise, it is very humble, humble to the ground.

In the face of Guo Peng's power, he completely surrendered.

I have to say that Hua Tuo at that time was a bit cheap.

Then Guo Peng learned about Hua Tuo's life experience, and he knew what it means to play a good hand of cards to a pulp, what it means to study for nothing and harm others, and what it means not to hit the south wall and not look back.

Don't think about it, the south wall can't be hit.

The southern wall built by hierarchy, prejudice and discrimination is so strong that it can force a son of a Confucian family with a better background than Guo Peng into the ghost that is close to schizophrenia, just because he took a wrong step.

The old society can turn people into ghosts.

Really, Hua Tuo was almost forced to become a ghost.

A wrong choice, unexpectedly so irreversible.

Hua Tuo really regretted it. He regretted it all the time. While taking medicine, he regretted it, cursing his past self, looking, smelling, asking, and treating patients.

Extremely good at medical skills, better than anyone else.

But he hates medicine more than anyone else.

He loves medicine more than anyone else.

Whether it was hate or love, he couldn't tell the difference.

So I was almost forced into schizophrenia...

He even began to seek ways to enter the official career, using himself to give dignitaries the opportunity to treat diseases, revealing his gentry status, seeking advancement, and doing the things he hated the most in the past.

In fact, he succeeded. Huang Wan, the Yuzhou shepherd among the first batch of state shepherds in the world, once appointed Hua Tuo to serve in the Taiwei's mansion after being appointed as a Taiwei by Dong Zhuo.

But Hua Tuo couldn't see the hustle and bustle of the world clearly, so he didn't go to Luoyang at that time to wade into the muddy water. He refused.
