Chapter 60 Special Medical Treatment
Regarding the colonel's half-spoken words and hints, Zhou Changfeng thinks that he should be commended in the future?
The Battle of Demagi was critical in terms of campaigns, and it was also commendable in terms of tactics. He was a little proud of being able to achieve such a result in his first battle.

So, you can't give yourself a medal?
But then again, the British and Indian troops can only be regarded as third-rate opponents. If you take this battle too seriously, you will be a bit of a frog in the bottom of the well.

After leaving the garrison commander, he took a tram to the north along Chengxian Avenue, and finally came to Yingtian Army General Hospital.

The location of this large-scale and well-equipped hospital is also excellent. To the north is Xuanwu Lake, to the west is Jilong Mountain, and to the southwest is the former Shangyuan County School.

Jilong Mountain, also known as Jiming Mountain, is the aftermath of Zijin Mountain. At the east foot of it is the famous Jiming Temple. This is an ancient temple with a history of more than 700 years. witnesses.

As for Shangyuan County School, it became the No. [-] Middle School of Shangyuan County after the reform of the school system.But now it's more than July, and the students had their summer vacation a few days ago.

Is the three-step process of registering identity, registering to see a doctor, and checking into a ward all similar?

Zhou Changfeng, who was in the hospital, found that although it was called an army hospital, it was basically ordinary people.

In fact, this is also the reason for the Chongwu Edict back then, and the policies adapted to it are effective in many aspects. For example, military families have a [-]% discount on medical treatment in military hospitals.

This is actually a very outrageous policy, because the definition of "a family" is much wider than that of the military family members there before Zhou Changfeng crossed. Siblings, grandparents and grandparents count.

These days are big families again, a couple can have a few children at least.

In the earliest days, this policy was probably decided on a whim. The classification was vague and one-size-fits-all. The whole family had a [-]% discount within ten years from the time of service, and military civilian jobs were all covered by it.

And because Ming is a voluntary military service, he can choose the shortest three years when signing the military contract, that is, the contract.Therefore, a lot of people choose to take advantage of this—anyway, they have many children, and if they send one to serve as a three-year soldier, the whole family can enjoy ten years of preferential medical treatment.

As a matter of course, within a few years, the military hospital's financial deficit exploded.

Later, this policy was fine-tuned and changed-the [-]% preferential exemption was reduced to [-]%; after retiring, this preferential exemption is limited to individuals, and it is divided into three levels according to the length of service.

As for the scope of "one family", it is reserved, because the Ministry of War believes that if the scope of preferential treatment and exemption is further reduced, there will be no effect of correcting the atmosphere.

"Look, here's another fragment, very small."

"Didn't you find out before?"

"This one is too small. If it wasn't here, I'm afraid it would have been kept forever."

After another X-ray irradiation, a middle-aged doctor and an old doctor with white hair and beard discussed together, and then Zhou Changfeng learned that there was a tiny fragment hidden in the side of the left rib. The precision of the small X-ray machine is not high, so it was not found.

However, both doctors said that it is not difficult. The key to this kind of operation is to "remove all the fragments accurately at one time", so as to avoid suffering from a second operation in the future, and now all the shell fragments and rib fragments have been identified. , and then sprinkle water.

What's interesting is that after the old doctor with white hair and beard took Zhou Changfeng's pulse and checked his tongue, he said that his Qi and blood were not enough, and he still had a little yin deficiency and fire.

The astonished Zhou Changfeng hurriedly asked if it was serious. The old doctor stroked his beard and smiled, and replied that he only needed to take some Yin-nourishing medicine during the five days of observation in the hospital, and pay more attention to his diet in the future.

"Then go to get the prescription and get the medicine, and then hand it over to the inpatient department, and they will take care of it."

"it is good."

[Although Ming Dynasty is now a modern medicine, in fact, classical Chinese medicine also had surgery, and the Sui and Tang Dynasties were the most developed times of Chinese medicine surgery. This topic is worth talking about, and I will talk about it later when I have a chance. 】

Zhou Changfeng was admitted to the hospital that day, and after a night of rest in the exclusive private ward, he was brought into the operating room early the next morning.

The outfits of doctors and nurses are roughly similar to those I saw when I first traveled through them a few days ago. It is not white, but a very light light green; doctors and nurses in the operating room must also wear a gray-green surgical coat.

Lying on the operating table, there is a round hole in the middle of the gray cloth covering the body, the chief surgeon talked to several people around, and then anesthetized.

Up and down, left and right, Zhou Changfeng could feel that his chest and abdomen had been pricked with four needles in total, and then a cold cotton swab dipped in boric acid was wiped around the wound for disinfection.

Although there is no pain under local anesthesia, the basic sense of touch is still there. Zhou Changfeng can even feel the sharp scalpel scratching his skin, and the tweezers picking up fragments and bone fragments.

The shadowless lamp above the head is so bright that it dazzles even with eyes closed.

As a major advancement in convenient surgery, the shadowless lamp was born in the 20s. The Frenchman Whelan invented the prototype of the shadowless lamp, which evenly arranged many plane mirrors, and put the light bulb in the center, and the whole was funnel-shaped; The preliminarily improved second-generation shadowless lamp has been put into use. For example, the one on Zhou Changfeng's body is a new domestically produced shadowless lamp that has just left the factory.

The chief surgeon seemed to be doing his job with ease, chatting while moving his hands.

He asked intently: "By the way, why did you come back alone? Where are your soldiers?"

"The capacity of the air freight is limited, and they have to go back by car."

"Where's the wounded?"

"The lightly wounded followed the main force, and the seriously wounded took the plane to Chengdu one after another."

The air force has deployed four squadrons of transport planes to transport supplies to Lasa and Lingzhi, to load goods on the outbound journey, and to transport people on the return journey.

After half an hour, after repeatedly confirming that all the small metal fragments and rib debris were cleaned up, the doctor began to clean the wound with Dalkin's solution and boric acid, and then sewed it up.

"Okay, you're done, pay attention these few days, and you'll be a good man again after heals." The chief surgeon said with a sigh of relief.

The operation ended, but the pain came quickly.

These days, there is a lack of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory painkillers with stronger pain relief effects, either aspirin with weak pain relief effects, or Nasha with strong pain relief effects.

Zhou Changfeng was naturally unwilling to choose the latter, so the burst of pain that followed after the effects of the anesthetic ended was very unbearable, and he was restless, so he could only lie on the hospital bed and read the newspaper to distract his attention.

When he saw the second page, a medium-sized headline immediately caught his attention——"Spain Changes, the Army Rebelled"

"Jiji News from Spain on the [-]th: Since the [-]th, the Spanish army and air force have risen one after another, and the rebellion has spread to many parts of the country. Now..."

Yes, it is July, and although the time has changed slightly, the storm on the Iberian Peninsula is still here.
