Chapter 55: Continuing to Learn
Almansa was telling the truth, and there was indeed a terrible scene outside the barracks.
The military doctor is no different from the flag army in the cuirass, except for the medicine box with his arms wrapped in white cloth.
At this time, another military medical camp has been set up outside the barracks, and the color of the tents is different from the military tents, all of which are white.
The lack of baggage greatly affected the treatment of wounded soldiers in the military medical battalion, at least in terms of the comfort of trauma treatment, the wounded soldiers did not even have beds, and those who could sit and could not sit sat sat outside the white tent, and those who could not sit were moved into the military medical tent for treatment of external injuries.
After the battle, the establishment of the flag army was broken up, and as early as during the training, the flag army of each small flag wore multiple positions, including a test military doctor, a trial calculation soldier, a test engineer and other deputy positions, and those who were not injured as soon as the battle was over were assigned to other departments.
The same is true of the military medical battalion, where the test military doctors, who were transferred from various small banners, under the leadership of the third-class military doctors, lit fires outside the white tent to boil medicines, boil bandages, and other things, and sometimes had to go into battle to bandage the lightly wounded banner military robes, and they were very busy.
It was doctors B and C who really operated on the seriously injured Banner Army, and they were the mainstay of the military doctors of every unit of the Ming Army.
Class A doctors do not perform traumatic surgeries, they are only responsible for the most difficult surgeries, such as the 'intestinal anastomosis' that is common in the army, and this is when they come in handy.
Put back the intestines that came out and pick up the broken intestines.
Almansa had seen the corpses of the officers of the Western Army outside the camp, and the Black Cloud Dragon had indeed miscalculated, but the mistake was not as outrageous as Almansa had imagined.
Nine of the 37 Western Army officers collected by the Ming army were not officers, and the two mercenary leaders and seven senior soldiers who had received awards were dressed like officers, so they were mistaken.
Even so, the twenty-eight officers were still distressing to Almansa, and the Herrera Legion was indeed annihilated in formation, leaving only a company commander and a gendarmerie chief to maintain military discipline.
All the officers were killed, and even if he re-entered Mexico in the future, it would be difficult for the regiment to be formed again.
However, among the corpses, he unexpectedly found that an officer was not dead, and it happened to be next to the Ming army's medical battalion, and he immediately ordered his entourage to carry the quartermaster over, hoping to be treated.
The two company commanders of the Herrera Legion, along with the chief drummer and the four captive knights, had surrendered to him and were willing to fight for him, and if he could save the quartermaster and add more soldiers, he would be able to form four companies.
In addition, Almansa also hopes to take this opportunity to take a look at the operation of the Ming army's military doctors...... Ever since his injured finger was treated by Shao Tingda's subordinate military doctors, he had always been curious about Dr. Mingguo.
The military doctor refused to treat him, and asked him to go to Chen Shigong, the only first-class military doctor in the military medical camp, and only after obtaining permission could he treat the quartermaster who had broken his left leg and was stabbed in the back.
The doctor is benevolent, Chen Mu knows that the military doctor will inevitably sympathize with all the wounded and treat the enemy, so he not only equipped the military doctor with a scalpel made of stainless steel, but also equipped them with a handcuff, and killed the enemy's wounded soldiers directly when he saw them.
It is also a good thing to say that it is good to reduce the suffering of the enemy.
In fact, Chen Mu simply didn't want to waste the limited resources of military doctors, and hoped that all the manpower and material resources he had worked so hard to recruit and raise would be used on his own people.
Chen Shigong is twenty-three years old this year, which is not too young for the profession of a doctor, and according to common sense, it is good for him to be a first-class doctor outside the military doctor's tent who boils medicine with a flag army.
However, he was also lucky, because he was young and sick, he followed the local famous medical doctor when he was a teenager, because his teacher Li Yuanming said that there is a difference between inside and outside medicine, and he entered Beiyang when he recruited doctors in the military government - the army has ample opportunities to treat external injuries.
However, what really made him a first-class military doctor was to rely on the pair of thousands of miles of walking for the army, mainly treating swollen and sore feet during long journeys, and putting them in shoes can reduce swelling and relieve pain, which is considered an insignificant external medicine, but it is of great significance to the military, so he was promoted.
This expedition with the former military fleet also shouldered a mission from the Beiyang Medical Academy - relying on practice to sort out the knowledge of anatomy since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
To this end, the young Chen Shigong was equipped with five assistants, including knife manipulation, weighing, ancient books, notes, and collation, as well as a Taoist from the Longhu Daojun Dojo in Xinhui, Guangzhou Prefecture.
This Taoist was previously thrown by Chen Mu to the dojo to ponder electricity, and he had thrown magnets and coils into the Dan furnace for a full seven hundred and forty-nine days of refining, and he was extremely serious, but in this world, hard work is not rewarded, the copper wire has been refined and has not been practiced, and he was finally dismissed, so he went to the north to make a living.
But fortunately, this time I was hired by the Beiyang Medical Institute, and I took the salary of one or two taels of silver per month and the full salary of the expedition to do the work of the soul, and there was nothing wrong with it except for being tired.
At least the Beiyang Army eats better than the original dojo incense in terms of food rations, and is still respected by the soldiers, and no one knows when it will be their turn to be exceeded.
Although the appearance of the Westerner warriors was different from that of the Ming people, the Taoist said that the transcendence could also guide the soul from the suffering of the three evil realms, Chen Shigong had less worries in his heart, and took his assistants to perform a half-day operation on the wounded flag army outside the white cloth tent.
"The word "unraveling" comes from "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing: Lingshu", let's start with Lingshu."
After saluting the corpse, several people began to work, and the operator first 'cut the skin and muscles', then 'knotted the veins and tendons' to tie the blood vessels and handle the ligaments, and finally 'pulled the pleural membrane and peritoneum' apart.
"The corpse records: lips to teeth, nine minutes long, two and a half inches wide; After the tooth to the epiglottis, three and a half inches deep, large and five-fold; The tongue weighs ten taels, is seven inches long, and is two and a half inches wide; The pharyngeal door weighs ten taels and is one and a half inches wide; to the stomach, one foot six inches long...... The echo ring is also thirty-two songs. ”
The assistants measured them one by one, and finally the assistant of the ancient book reported to Chen Shigong: "It is roughly consistent." ”
Chen Shigong nodded, ordered the secretary's assistant to write it down, wrinkled his nose, and saluted the corpse silently, and then said: "Continue, "Difficult Scripture"
The sound of churning and the sound of the assistants swallowing bitter water sounded at the same time, no one was interested in talking, and the Taoist who crossed the ocean to beg for a living could not see this episode, and had already run outside the military medical camp and vomited.
"The Book of Difficulty" has clouds: the liver weighs two catties and four taels, three leaves on the left, four leaves on the right, and seven leaves on the right. The heart weighs twelve taels, there are seven holes and three hairs, and the essence juice is three. ”
The antiquarian said, and the surveyor tried his best to swallow the mouth of the mouth.
"This liver weighs two catties and four taels and one penny, and the weight is comparable, but I don't know how to divide the leaves contained in the book; This heart weighs six taels or seven dollars, and I don't know how to say it with seven holes and three cents. ”
Chen Shigong frowned, raised his hand to grind his chin and short beard, and said suspiciously: "If it is said that the weight of the Han Dynasty when the book was written was different from today, then the weight of the liver recorded by it is wrong, and if it is the same as today, the weight of the heart is wrong, how to solve this?" ”
"Maybe people are different from today? All of them are written down, and they will be compiled into a book in the future, and the present people will take this book as a witness, and as for the heart hole and liver lobe......"
Chen Shigong gritted his teeth and said to several assistants: "Open it, open it and you will know the essence of the water!" ”
Almantha opened the curtain and came in at this time, only to see the man who had been cut open lying on the wooden table, and it was no wonder that he ran back to the barracks like a demon.
