Chapter 306: The Military Medical System (II)
When Yuan Fang stood on the podium and loudly announced the professionalization of military doctors and the corresponding treatment, all the military doctors and medical workers present were boiling, cheering loudly and laughing happily, especially the old military doctors who had served for many years like Lu Ling, who had been oppressed for too long, and now they were given the treatment they deserved, and they were finally recognized by the empire, and some of them were so emotional that they even secretly wiped their tears.

As for Yuan Fang, as the initiator of all this and the first director of the military hospital, his reputation among military doctors has soared, even the skilled Doctor Ye and Qin Cao, who has rich surgical knowledge, are difficult to match.
When everyone's excitement calmed down, Yuan Fang pressed his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then announced the first batch of military rank appointments, Lu Ling, Pang Ying, Ren Chang and other old military doctors were directly awarded the rank of general, Xiao Lu and a group of later military doctors were awarded the rank of captain, and the others are to be determined for the time being, after all, Yuan Fang is not familiar with everyone, and it is necessary to use the comprehensive conditions of everyone as an evaluation criterion before awarding the corresponding military rank. And what makes Yuan Fang more headache is, what should Xiaomei do? What kind of military rank should be awarded, her identity is more sensitive, if nothing else, she will become the future queen, you say, what kind of military rank should be given to the queen?
There are also Ye Dafu, Qin Cao, and Chen Guang, although they have excellent medical skills and are recognized by everyone, but after all, they have just joined this system, and they have not experienced the rescue work of the war, so it can be said that there is no merit, and it is difficult to convince the public if they are directly awarded a senior rank, but if they are only given the lowest rank equivalent to that of ordinary soldiers, Yuan Fang feels that it is inappropriate, so Yuan Fang came to a good solution, according to the standard of rank promotion, and awarded them the rank of soldier at the same time, The appointment of the three of them as medical instructors in the military hospital, with this status, can avoid the embarrassment of having to salute those hairy boys because of their ranks.
There are also some people who are more difficult to deal with, that is, doctors like Su Ming who were recruited from all over the country at the beginning, they are nominally military doctors, but in fact, they are not soldiers, most of them also have families and jobs in their hometowns, and they have not yet thought about how to deal with Yuan Fang.
Su Ming probably saw the teacher's difficulties, and immediately expressed his willingness to join the army and become a professional military doctor, Yuan Fang was very pleased and guilty about this, for this student, he really didn't spend time teaching, but fortunately, now that Doctor Ye and Qin Cao are here, Yuan Fang naturally handed over Su Ming to Qin Cao as a guide, Su Ming did not live up to Yuan Fang's expectations, and his medical skills have made great progress, especially in general surgery, he has a talent that is no worse than Xiaomei.
With Su Ming taking the lead, there are many young military doctors who are similar to him have expressed their willingness to join, they were originally just apprentices in some medical halls, and they did not choose to join the army before, because the previous medical system was too chaotic, and the status and treatment of military doctors were too low, even if they went back to continue to be apprentices, it was better than being a military doctor.
But now it's different, the treatment of military doctors has improved so much, of course they won't let go of this opportunity, besides, since this period of time, they have also become accustomed to the life of the army, and have made a lot of friends here, if they are allowed to leave, they are reluctant, and the most attractive thing for them is the promotion of military ranks.
Let's ask, who doesn't want to get ahead, make contributions and make contributions to their families, let's put it this way, although their medical skills are not the best, but as long as they work hard, even if they are mediocre, in this war era, serving on the front line, I believe that it will not take long to get promoted, from an ordinary soldier to a squad leader, although the squad leader's official position is not big, but how to say that he is also an officer.
Let's put it this way, as long as they endure hardships, work diligently, and do their best to treat every wounded, one day they will become captains, or even higher officers, compared to those ordinary soldiers who fight with their lives, the treatment of military doctors is really good, and although the path to promotion is long, it is relatively safe.
In addition to military doctors, there are also those female soldiers who were not selected for the pro-guard army for various reasons and were brought by Yuan Fang to study nursing, they became the first batch of nurses in the new military medical system, and their instructor Da Mei, unsurprisingly, became the chief nurse, although it is now only the rank of an ordinary soldier, I believe that there will be a significant promotion in the near future.
At this time, a fat medical worker asked: "Dean, our military uniforms are almost the same, so how do we distinguish and identify individual military ranks?" ”
Yuan Fang glanced at the man approvingly: "That's a good question, come over here." ”
The fat medical worker was a little nervous when he heard this, he didn't know what Yuan Fang was doing when he called him over. Yuan Fang pulled the fat medical worker to his side, pointed to the collar and shoulders of the fat medical worker's brand new military uniform and said to everyone: "I plan to install collar badges and epaulettes indicating military ranks in these two places, so that everyone can easily distinguish each other's military ranks, and when the time comes, whether to salute each other or accept each other's respect depends on your personal ability." ”
The fat medical worker asked expectantly: "Dean, what kind of epaulettes and collar badges you are talking about?" Is it good-looking? ”
Yuan Fang rolled his eyes and kicked lightly on the fat medical worker's buttocks, and said angrily: "Get out, you big man cares about whether you are beautiful or not, hurry up and lose weight, otherwise you will not be able to marry a wife." The crowd burst into laughter.
The matter was roughly explained, Yuan Fang learned from Yang Xing, and he threw all the things to Lu Ling and Doctor Ye to deal with the aftermath, and he took Sang Rou and Yuyue to the blacksmith furnace to discuss the epaulettes with Lian Song.
After listening to Yuan Fang's introduction and carefully looking at the drawings, he found a helper who was also good at carving, first carved out the pattern designed by Yuan Fang on a slightly soft material, and then poured the mold with molten iron, the mold was handled, and then the badge and accessories on it were poured with aluminum alloy materials, and finally fixed with rivets, and a pair of epaulettes and collar badges were completed.
The whole process is simple to say, but not easy to do, especially the production of molds, but it took a lot of time and repeated attempts to modify it.
There are only two kinds of collar badges designed by Yuan Fang, regardless of military rank, worn by military doctors and nurses respectively, bright silver metal sheets as the base, red cross pattern, the collar badge of the military doctor is surrounded by the branch pattern of the tree of life, and the collar badge of nursing is a pair of hands holding up the red cross pattern, the two are not very different, but they can be distinguished at a glance, plus the two kinds of military uniforms are not the same, the leather windbreaker of the military doctor is white, and the windbreaker of nursing is dark green.
