Forty-eight years of Qianlong

Chapter 57 "Dr. Zhao" Takes Off for the Second Time

Zhao Xin is very fortunate that he insisted on running a [-]-kilometer lap every day a while ago.

He and Jiuzang first headed south, and then along the coast to the southwest, until after running six or seven kilometers, he couldn't run anymore.After resting for half an hour, the two went south across the ice of the inner bay of the island.The width of the ice here is more than 800 meters.

Fortunately, just after they crossed the ice, Lu Shoushan and Hengji came back with their sledges to pick them up.

Zhao Xin lay upright on the sledge, feeling that he was more tired than a dog, and was about to stick his tongue out.

The ten horses bought last year will not be shipped to the rented ranch until late January.Zhao Xin was thinking about whether to buy two sleds. If he ran like this again, he would be completely disabled.

Just thinking about it, an hour later, I finally arrived at the camp.

Zhao Xin endured the pain in the soles of his feet and stood up from the sledge.Lu Shoushan saw Zhao Xin's fatigue, so he helped Zhao Xin back to the car.

A Miao also got into the car at this time and followed Zhao Xin.

After Zhao Xin put away the rifle, he found the medicine box.He took a plate of antipyretics and a disposable syringe, and then pulled out two tetanus antitoxin injections from under the medicine box.

In other words, it was not easy for him to get these tetanus antitoxin injections.Regular hospitals will not prescribe it to unrelated people at all, nor can they be bought online.Zhao Xin found an internal relationship and used the excuse that his relatives' feet were pierced by nails, and they couldn't come to the hospital, and finally opened such a small amount.

As for himself and Liu Sheng, they had already received the tetanus vaccine.

Zhao Xin found a bag and asked A Miao to put all these things in, and then took two thermometers, alcohol, iodine, physiological saline, cotton wool, gauze, tweezers, Yunnan Baiyao powder, and stuffed them all into the bag.

Then I washed my hands.

Doctor Zhao Mongolian Xin, after treating Pan Xiucheng and Xu Funan last time, started his second medical practice in this time and space.

The Seldan family, Yalha and Hengji were all placed in a tent.After a few people settled down, they curiously looked at the stove and a few new quilts in the tent for a while, and then they began to become anxious again.These are the two wounded!
The curtain flickered, and Zhao Xin walked in staggeringly, followed by Lu Shoushan and A Miao.

At this time, Seldan was lying sideways on the mat, still conscious; Yalha was still in a coma with a high fever.

Zhao Xin thought about it, took out the thermometer first, and placed it under the armpits of the two of them.

Then let Lu Shoushan take off Seldan's robe, roll up his sleeves, and expose his forearms.While Lu Shoushan and Serdan's family were busy, he took out the tetanus injection, first dipped a cotton pad with alcohol, and asked A Miao to wipe her hands all over, and did a simple disinfection.

Then he put the disposable needle in his hand, squeezed the ampoule of the injection with both hands (bu, four beeps), and with a slight force, the bottle neck was broken with a light "pop", and then he drew it out with a syringe. About 0.1 ml, and another 0.9 ml was drawn from the bottle of physiological saline.After shaking to mix, prepare for skin testing.

(People who have not had the tetanus vaccine, must have a skin test before taking the serum, otherwise allergies will kill the person.)
Zhao Xin used alcohol cotton to sterilize Seldan's forearm as he remembered the nurse's skin test technique when he was a child, and then prepared to make a small blister for the skin test on the front of his forearm.

I have to pick the needle up... pick... Nima, I failed, and I broke the skin!

Come again... come again... I'll go! ……continue……

The Cerdan family stared in stunned eyes as the big leader in front of him held a strange thin needle and carried small holes one after another on Cerdan's arm.

"Emother, Ama's arm is bleeding." Geng Gen whispered to Dachun, Seldan's wife.

"Don't talk nonsense, this is about bloodletting and poisoning." Dachun said hesitantly.But she felt in her heart that if blood was released to remove poison, the blood was too little, right?It is said that shamans are directly drawn with a knife...

Fortunately, Zhao Xin was so busy that he didn't care what other people said. If you know this, he immediately became a big red face, and he could directly set up the stage to play Guan Gong.

Novice Zhao trembled slightly, sweat on his forehead, after seven or eight attempts, he finally succeeded!

Yay~~ This fellow let out a long breath, thinking that this is even more difficult than embroidery!
Just as Zhao Xin was about to raise his hand to wipe the sweat, A Miao took a towel and wiped it for him.At this time, little A Miao, with Bling Bling's big eyes, was full of admiration, Master's medical skills are too powerful!
"Tell them to wait, and if it's all right after a while, you can take the medicine." Zhao Xin said to Lu Shoushan.

After listening to Lu Shoushan's words, the Serdan family realized that it wasn't over, and the heart that was about to be put down was raised again.

Zhao Xin took advantage of this time to look at the thermometers of the two.Seldan's condition is okay, but only has a low fever; Yalha has a high fever of more than 39 degrees.

Zhao Xin asked Lu Shoushan to quickly ask about Yalha’s frostbite and tell himself.When he heard that the cotton on Yalha's body would not be untied for seven days, he gave up the idea of ​​changing the gauze.He took out the antipyretic medicine from the bag, thought about it, and let Seldan take a piece, and at the same time let Amy feed Yalha.

Next, he did the same skin test on the back of Yalha's neck.

Fortunately, Doctor Zhao, who has become more and more "skilled" in his technique, succeeded in only five attempts this time.During the period, Yalha, who was in a drowsy state, was shivering with his head picked by the needle in Zhao Xin's hand.

Zhao Xin went to see the results of the Seldan skin test again. It was very good, and there was no allergic reaction.So he took out all the tetanus injection in an ampoule, pierced Seldan's upper arm with a needle, and pushed the injection in.

Immediately afterwards, he asked A Miao to untangle the cloth wrapped around Cerdan's right back shoulder, wipe the wound with alcohol cotton with tweezers, and even stabbed the alcohol-stained cotton into the wound to wipe off the pus and blood inside.

Seldan didn't think much of it when Zhao Xin was "letting blood and removing poison" just now, but the pain was unbearable at this time.He gritted his teeth hard, and every time the alcohol touched the wound, his face throbbed in pain.

Hengji looked at everything in front of him in horror, and his legs were too soft to stand up for a long time.But the high alcohol smell from the alcohol cotton made his saliva secrete, and he always wanted to take the small bottle of wine and take a sip.

Zhao Xin felt that it was almost time, and let A Miao continue to deal with Seldan's wound.He looked at Yalha's skin test results, and there was no allergic reaction, so he gave Yalha a shot of tetanus toxin on his butt.

For Yalha, Zhao Xin can only do this.If the condition worsens, it can only be left to fate. (Persistent high fever will lead to increased intracranial pressure. In severe cases, puncture treatment is required to reduce intracranial pressure. This operation cannot be performed by non-professionals.)
After A Miao finished treating Seldan's wound, Zhao Xin took a look and sprinkled some Yunnan Baiyao powder on a piece of gauze, covered Seldan's wound, and wrapped it with gauze.

After all this was done, Zhao Xin relaxed and was so tired that he fell asleep.

Before leaving, he explained to Seldan's family through Lu Shoushan that the gauze and medicine need to be changed every day, there is no problem, just need to rest assured; After retreating, everything is fine. If the fever doesn't go away, then it will depend on Yaerha's own life.

In the thousands of thanks from Seldan's family and Hengji, Zhao Xin got out of the tent and returned to the car.Amidst the snoring, A Miao took off Zhao Xin's shoes and put the quilt over him, and then she went to the table next to her quietly.

"Meow" Duofu jumped from the platform to A Miao's feet, and rubbed his head against the human slave's calf.

A Miao held Duofu in her arms and tried to recall every step of Zhao Xin's operation in the tent just now.

More than two hours later, Zhao Xin woke up from his sleep.He was always thinking about the coming of the Qing soldiers, so he slept very unsteadily.After washing his face and drinking the tea that A Miao made, he felt less uncomfortable.

"A Miao, go get Lu Shoushan." Zhao Xin instructed A Miao while chewing the compressed biscuits while checking the weapon.

After a while, Lu Shoushan came.

"Master, what's your order?" He had been accompanying the Cerdan family in the tent just now, and briefly told them about himself and the camp.He looked very tired at the moment.

"Shoushan, you ask that... whoever has the sledge ready, take me to the observation post."

"Master, I'll go with you." Lu Shoushan raised his head and said without hesitation.

However, when Zhao Xin was about to set off with Lu Shoushan with a big bag on his back, Li Ji, Wan Zao, Ping Tai, and Jiuzang who heard the news all came over with knives and wanted to go with Zhao Xin.Zhao Xin only called on Jiuzang, who had good military force. He asked Li Ji and the three to stay at the camp to avoid chaos.

This time it was Elu who was rushing to the sledge. When he heard Lu Shoushan say that he was going to send his master to the beach on the north side, he rushed to go with him.Elu was very grateful for Zhao Xin's wholehearted treatment of Seldan, and always wanted to repay the other party.

After more than an hour, the group of four returned to the observation point.

"Liu Sheng, Liu Sheng, what's the matter? It's over."

"No movement. It's over." Knowing that Zhao Xin was back, Liu Sheng walked out of the wooden shed at the observation point.

"Here." After the sledge stopped, Zhao Xin handed the large backpack he was carrying to Liu Sheng.

"What is this?" Liu Sheng asked casually while opening his backpack to check. "Smoke bomb?" Liu Sheng took out a cylindrical object wrapped in a plastic bag from his bag.

"Yeah. I bought it at an outdoor store in the city before I came here."

In the backpack, in addition to four spare magazines and two boxes of ammunition, there are six smoke bombs individually wrapped in plastic, four pistols, and a pile of food.

Speaking of which, the outdoor store was the one that Zhao Xin saw had a Gatling gun in it.The grenades and smoke bombs sold in the store are just like the lemons in the fruit store. They are packaged one by one in sealed plastic bags.People don't sell grenades casually, and smoke grenades can still be bought, so Zhao Xin bought ten of them, and let's see the effect first.

The two returned to the wooden shed, took out the topographic map of Bear Island, and speculated how the Qing soldiers would act if they were to come.

Some time ago, since the discovery of Lu Shoushan and the others, Liu Sheng and Wang Yuanfang have gone out to investigate every day. They have already compared the topography of the whole island with the photos taken by drones.The land area of ​​the entire island is only more than 100 square kilometers, the farthest from east to west is 13 kilometers, and only 18 kilometers from north to south.Especially for the terrain in the northern part of Bear Island, Liu Sheng and the others have long been aware of it.

Zhao Xin didn't know much about the tactics and tactics of the Qing soldiers, so he called Lu Shoushan, Pan Xiucheng and Elu to inquire.The three complemented each other and said what they knew about the weapons configuration of the Qing soldiers.

The armor worn by Hunchun armored soldiers is all foam nailed cotton armor.Zhao Xin knew that the cotton armour of this era was wetted with the cotton that was picked, and after repeated beating, it was made into a thin cotton piece; and then several such cotton pieces were stitched into a thick enough cotton cloth.An iron armor piece is placed between the two layers of cotton cloth, and the inside and outside are fixed with copper nails (foam nails).The cotton armor made in this way has a very good defense effect on general firearms such as shotguns, and the iron armor inside has defense ability against bows and crossbows; and the outer foam nails can also defend against sharp weapon cutting; the weather outside is cold, and the cold protection effect of cotton armor is also Very good.

After talking about the armor, then the warhorse.Hunchun's armored soldiers all have horses, and there are more than one. Most of the armored soldiers who go out are one person and two horses.Pan Xiucheng recalled that the deputy capital of Ningguta had 20 war horses alone.

As for weapons, bows and arrows, waist knives, and spears are the main ones.According to Elu, a small number of armored soldiers were also equipped with fire guns.

After listening to the explanations of the three, Liu Sheng confidently said to Zhao Xin: "That's it, it's a piece of cake. I think that after the Qing soldiers go ashore, they will first search for the traces of people and carriages, and then they will leave behind on the snow. We searched all the way for the footprints of our horses and the sledge, which was their search route. So..."

He pointed to the river valley near the middle of Bear Island on the map. "As long as we ambush here, none of them can escape."

Zhao Xin decided to ask Sheng Haizhou, who had been listening, to call the others for a meeting, and Liu Sheng would arrange an ambush mission.

Liu Sheng used branches to draw the terrain near the river valley on the snow, and explained the division of responsibilities of the people present one by one according to the principle of wrapping all the circles and not letting one go.

As for Elu, Zhao Xin asked him to drive the sledge to transport everyone to the ambush site in the river valley, and then return to the camp.

With Lu Shoushan's constant explanations, Elu, the foolish daring boy, heard that the big leader was going to wipe out all the armored soldiers on the island, and looked at Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng with his mouth open in surprise, thinking that this was impossible at all!

So when he heard Lu Shoushan say that the big boss asked him to transport everyone to the river valley and then go back to the camp, he resolutely refused to agree, saying that he must join in the ambush together, and also said that his bow and arrow skills were very good.

"Okay, where's your arrow?" Zhao Xin glanced at Elu, who was carrying a bow, and asked.

"On the sledge, sir." Lu Shoushan replied for Elu.

"Tell him, without the orders of me and Master Liu, you are not allowed to attack or move in an ambush. If the Qing soldiers are disturbed because of his chaos, I will let his whole family get out!"
