Chapter 180 A spectacular attack
Boiled cotton cloths were soaked in a disinfectant solution made from willow twigs and other medicinal herbs and repeatedly wiped on the wound.

A curly-haired man, half-lying there, was covered in sweat, his hands gripping the bed frame tightly, yet he still stared wide-eyed at Li Dachui's actions.

As a third-generation disciple of Changchun Valley, treating patients is naturally a frequent task for him.

Valley Master Fu Qingzhu treated the emperor and other nobles in the palace, while Fu Cheng and the other second-generation disciples treated the ministers in Yandu. The third-generation disciples were responsible for traveling from village to village to treat the common people and, incidentally, to promote the benevolence and virtue of Changchun Valley.

Li Dachui was the leader of one of the squads.

Although he hadn't studied for very long, Li Dachui's medical skills were actually quite good.

He has a unique approach to treating external injuries.

The complete set of surgical instruments he designed and supervised the production of is now standard equipment for many of Changchun Valley's disciples.

Of course, Li Dachui had to pay for these surgical instruments made of special materials.

With Fu Qingzhu personally giving the order, Li Dachui had no choice but to pay the money, no matter how unwilling he was.

There are actually better ways to disinfect.

That is the alcohol obtained through distillation.

However, that thing was too precious; even in Tai'an City, it was a special item that only a few people could use.

More often, people use a decoction made from willow branches and other medicinal herbs to disinfect their wounds. Although the effect is not as good, it is still usable.

As for the anesthetic that Fu Cheng is testing, we dare not use it here.

If you accidentally kill someone, you'll be in deep trouble.

After washing it, Li Dachui took out a knife, spoon, scraper and other tools, and scraped away the rotten and blackened flesh one by one. When he took it out, he saw that there were maggots crawling in and out of the flesh. Li Dachui couldn't help but admire the tough guy in front of him.

This guy walked all the way here on his own.

When he unwrapped the piece of rotten skin covering his leg, Li Dachui's eyes widened in astonishment.

After cleaning away the rotten parts and rinsing repeatedly with disinfectant, Li Dachui skillfully picked up a needle and thread and stitched up the man's open wound bit by bit.

A master needle and thread wielded the needle with such steadiness that the stitches were incredibly neat and precise.

The man was probably numb from the pain. Staring at the neat stitches, he couldn't help but give Li Dachui a thumbs up: "Young master's skills are superb, even neater than my woman's stitches!"

Li Dachui laughed heartily, tied a knot in his hand, took out the needle, then applied medicine and bandaged the man's wound. Finally, he gave the man a large bag of medicine and said, "Change the dressing every three days. Once you've used up this bag of medicine, you'll be a good man again, able to run and jump!"

"Thank you, young sir!" The man got off the bed, pointed to a sheep outside, and said, "I have no money, so I brought you a sheep. Kill it, roast it, and it'll be delicious!"

"No need, no need!" Li Dachui said with a smile as he washed the blood and dirt off his hands. "We're from Changchun Valley, you know Changchun Valley? We don't charge money, we treat you for free!"

The man wasn't pretentious, but he didn't seem to know what Changchun Valley was. Anyway, he heard it was free, so after thanking him, he led the sheep away, leaning on his crutch, and limped away.

Li Dachui poked his head out of the tent and looked outside, saying, "Next!"

Then another blood-covered guy walked in.

A new round of busy work has begun.

After a whole day, the other junior doctors were so tired that they lay down on the blankets on the ground and immediately started snoring. Only Li Dachui was still full of energy.

Listening to the snoring in the camp, Li Dachui walked out slowly with his hands behind his back, looking at the scattered lights in the distance.

Each light represents a household.

Whether they were people from the Qin Dynasty or the Yuan Dynasty, they were all ordinary people, and all they wanted was a peaceful life.

But the world itself is not peaceful.

Conflict is everywhere, and ultimately, it will affect these people.

The grass swayed slightly, and a figure stood up from it, but Li Dachui didn't seem to care.

"Young master, Astu arrived at his manor around noon today, accompanied by five hundred guards," the shadowy figure whispered. "They are all brave and skilled warriors, and there are also over a thousand servants in the manor. These people can be converted into combat power at any time. Are we really going to make a move?"

"Of course we have to take action!" Li Dachui said calmly. "His trip to his manor is our only chance. In Yandu, we can only watch helplessly."

"Yes!" The shadowy figure didn't try to persuade him further, but readily agreed.

"Those above the sixth rank of Qi Control, come with me. The rest of you, go back!" Li Dachui ordered. "You stay here and impersonate me."

With a swipe of his hand, he peeled off a face and handed it to the shadowy figure.

"Young master, I am at the sixth level of Qi Control." The dark figure said, ignoring the awkwardness.

“But among these people, you are the only one who knows medicine. What if the person impersonating me suddenly loses all medical skills in the next two days? Do you think that will work?” Li Dachui said.

The shadowy figure accepted the face with a bitter expression.

"But young master, is it alright if you only take these few people?"

"How do you know I only brought a few of them?" Li Dachui sneered.

The shadowy figure immediately shut up, slipped the face mask onto his face, carefully smoothed out the edges, and then, imitating Li Dachui, walked with his hands behind his back, swaying as he walked towards the main tent, towards the chorus of snoring.

Li Dachui took a step forward, instantly appearing several meters away. With a slight sway, he vanished into the darkness. Several miles away from the camp, dozens of people and their horses were waiting in the woods.

"Those above the sixth rank of Qi Control, stay. The rest, disperse and go home!" Li Dachui waved his hand and said.

The group of dozens of people immediately dispersed, leaving only five people standing in the same spot.

No one questioned it, and no one asked a single extra question.

Once the order is given, it is immediately obeyed.

Li Dachui walked up to an empty horse, took down a package from it, opened it, and took out the clothes inside to change into.

With a black bodysuit and a face mask, Li Dachui immediately looked exactly like the other five.

He mounted his horse, pulled on the reins, and galloped south, with the five men following silently behind.

Li Dachui wasn't crazy, so naturally he wouldn't lead five people to attack Astu's manor, which was defended and guarded by thousands of people.

In a place like Yuan Kingdom, where such a major case could be handled, there would naturally be more suitable subordinates.

Eagle thief.

I sent a message to Guan Shan. He didn't make any excuses or mention any difficulties. He simply said that he would arrive at the meeting point on time.

Li Dachui did not ask how the other party managed to arrive at their destination with so many people without alerting the authorities.

As hawks who had roamed the Yuan Dynasty for many years, they naturally had their own methods.

Li Dachui guessed that it must be one of the crisscrossing underground passages of the Eagle Bandits, very close to Astu's manor.

If you draw a circle on the map, Dragonflame Valley, Astu's Manor, and the Eagle Bandits' entry and exit point in Qilian Mountain are all within that circle.

This is truly a case of "If the King of Hell wants you dead at midnight, he won't let you live until dawn."

Li Dachui decided to carry out a spectacular attack, rather than using personal force to assassinate someone as Tiele had imagined.

Led by himself, a master whose martial arts cultivation is almost innate, the two thousand Eagle Bandits will surely shock the Great Yuan Dynasty if they rout Astu's manor and annihilate Astu's guards.

Of course, it would also leave an indelible shadow in the hearts of the Tiele people.

If I can destroy Astu today, who knows if I can't destroy you one day?
Of course, there's also the possibility of framing someone.

The capital of the Yuan Dynasty, Yandu, may appear calm on the surface, but beneath lies a turbulent undercurrent.

In broad daylight, the dignified Left Wise King was annihilated by a large army, and this army fled without a trace after killing him. Who has the ability to do this?

There are very few, aren't there?
If you doubt me and I doubt you, neither of us will trust the other anymore.

Once the poisonous weed of suspicion is planted, it will take root, sprout, and blossom, eventually bearing abundant fruit.

Killing multiple birds with one stone, how wonderful!
At the first crow of the rooster, Li Dachui arrived at the rendezvous point. Before him, two thousand Eagle Bandits sat down on the ground, their warhorses, bridled, standing beside them.

The five Qi Control Rank 6 experts who came with Li Dachui were greatly shocked by what they saw.

As experts in Li Dachui's intelligence organization embedded in Northern Yuan, they simply couldn't imagine how their young master had managed to organize such a large cavalry force in these areas, which were practically the core of Northern Yuan.

"Are you ready?" Li Dachui asked.

Guan Shan smiled and mounted his horse.

As he moved, the two thousand hawk bandits simultaneously leaped onto their horses.

Li Dachui laughed heartily, took a huge spiked club from his horse, and casually swung it a few times. "Follow me!"

The warhorse moved forward slowly.

Astu's estate is just ten miles away.

More than two thousand riders slowly made their way across the open field.

As dawn broke, they finally spotted the manor they were about to attack.

"Leave no one alive!" Li Dachui coldly issued the order!

Guan Shan drew his sword.

Two thousand hawk thieves drew their swords.

No one bothered to conceal their whereabouts anymore; they lifted their reins and galloped away at full speed.

More than two thousand warhorses galloped forward, their thunderous hooves shattering the pre-dawn twilight and the dew on the grass.

The early bird, having missed its worm, was startled and took flight, hastily fleeing this menacing place. The early rabbit, however, was less fortunate. Despite its frantic escape, the dense hooves left it no escape, and it was ultimately reduced to a bloody pulp under a hoof.

The farmhands, who had risen early to prepare for work, heard the horses' hooves, climbed to higher ground, and were terrified. The still-sleeping warrior, naked and carrying a sword, rushed outside, listened intently, and then frantically ran back inside to don his armor.

Li Dachui galloped forward, throwing his spiked club like a meteor straight towards the manor gate, which was reduced to dust with a deafening roar.
