The sixty-mile march was over, it was only midnight (13:00), and the sun was just turning west.
The Tang army had already begun to set up camp, with soldiers running back and forth and flags flying. The Tang army was also very particular about camping. Although they were marching in a safe area in the capital, Dou Yun, the general, did not allow the soldiers to stay in the towns.
Instead, they arranged to camp in the wild. Dou Yun sent out sentries in advance and selected a campsite based on the marching route and distance. He chose a relatively open and flat place near the river and water and occupying a high place. This not only facilitates water collection, but also is in close proximity with the camp.
It is isolated from the people to avoid being spied on the military situation without disturbing the people.
The hospital camp serves as a logistics unit, and Uncle Dou Guo treated Huaiyu and the others very favorably. He sent a soldier to come over to deliver orders. They were not required to be responsible for setting up camp, and they could directly carry out rescue teaching after arriving at the camp.
Lao Lu liked to show off his military knowledge to Huaiyu. Although he had never fought in battle, he was very knowledgeable on paper.
"There are nine ways to set up camp. For long-term camps, choose five methods: firewood camp, digging camp, fortified camp, wooden fence camp, and rope camp according to the local terrain. For short-term camps, use standing guns, drawing guns, and resisting horses.
, Choose from four types of car camps,”
Huaiyu listened to the instructions with an open mind.
This camp was personally selected by Liu Lancheng, the left pioneer. This educated old gangster was resourceful and brave. Although he was not a direct descendant of Li Shimin, Li Shimin was now wooing him and appointed him as the left pioneer. Uncle Dou Guo also regarded him.
Very polite.
It is close to the river and water, but it also occupies a slope. It can not only prevent flooding, but also occupy favorable terrain. Even if the Turkic cavalry does kill them in the middle of the night, occupying the high ground on the slope will still be of great help.
The gauze must be boiled in boiling water, and the needles used to suture wounds must also be boiled in boiling water. The medical staff and the wounded must be clean and hygienic. Good sanitary conditions can prevent the wounded soldiers from getting worse, and even prevent many wounded soldiers from dying. These are originally
It should be common sense, but even the ten doctors didn't fully understand it at this time.
If some medical care can be upgraded to the level of a barefoot doctor, and symptomatic medicine can be used for common injuries and illnesses on the battlefield, it will be another great success.
This cheap brother-in-law is really...
Huaiyu also knew that there were female prostitutes accompanying the camp in the camp. These people, like the merchants who accompanied the camp, said they came to the camp voluntarily, but in fact they were arranged by people with connections behind the scenes. In the military, sometimes there was a huge demand for this.
Because of their special nature, they charge not cheaply but earn a lot, and everyone really gets what they need.
Chen Xing hurriedly said: "It's natural to go out to socialize and have fun."
In the middle of the class, Dou Guojiu, Liu Lancheng, Niu Jinda, the Xue family brothers and other major generals came over to listen.
Huaiyu glanced at Zhao Xin and then at Chen Xing.
Some soldiers began to prepare dinner, some fetched water, some chopped firewood, and some dug stoves...
The carriages and the horses formed a wall around the camp.
"I also hope that you can complete your studies as soon as possible. When you go to the Longyou battlefield, I will count on you to save lives. Twelve sheep are nothing. If you save the life of one more soldier, it will be more than twelve sheep.
Already."
Many flags had already been planted at the selected camp site. After the troops from each battalion arrived, they all assigned their positions and then set up camp according to orders.
Huaiyu sent some mosquito-repellent incense to generals such as Dou Guojiu, Lu Consort, and Liu Lancheng. He also lit mosquito-repellent incense in the tent while writing a field medical manual under the lamp. This will also be the teaching material for the medical school accompanying the camp.
They were very satisfied with Huaiyu's explanation. Huaiyu made a big board and drew on it while explaining. They could understand it without knowing the words. Not to mention that they also hired people from Qianjin Hall to act as models and play various wounded soldiers.
.
Huai Yu was quite shocked when he first found out about it, but after knowing its nature, he was indifferent. It was not like a civilian girl from a good family snatched halfway, it was just business.
They stayed in the inner part of the camp, next to the general's flag.
The red, yellow and green straps are simple and easy to understand.
In other words, it is indeed rare for the Tang army to come as soon as they are summoned and be able to fight.
The military camp began to become lively, with only some soldiers on duty still on guard, while the rest were busy going about their own business, coming in and out.
"Thank you very much, Uncle Guo, for your kindness to our hospital camp."
A bell rang, and Huaiyu announced that the first class of the day was over.
Suiying Medical School officially opened.
As Lu Huairang said, their camp was set up according to the method of four temporary camps. They directly surrounded the carriages in a large circle and made a camp wall, and then tied the spears together to form a horse-repelling gun.
Classification of battlefield injuries, various first-aid drugs, how to quickly classify, dispose, and transport on stretchers...
It’s not very complicated, especially trauma, which is the focus. Pulling out arrowheads, treating gunshot wounds, stopping bleeding, and distinguishing between fractures and dislocations...
At night, a bonfire was lit in the camp, and the entire camp was no longer allowed to leave the camp.
This is legal. Under normal circumstances, there is no other channel except this. Others are illegal and strictly prohibited.
There are prostitutes gathering in the north of Pingkangfang, called Sanqu, and the ones in Beiqu are the most popular for public consumption.
Uncle Dou Guo came up and patted him on the shoulder and praised him, "It's very well-organized. Even a person like me who doesn't understand medicine has benefited a lot from listening to it. It's true that he is a disciple of a master."
Several camp gates were reserved to demarcate the locations of each camp, and then the soldiers set up tents. Some were responsible for fetching water, some for feeding the horses, and some for digging toilets.
At the baggage camp, one of the accompanying caravans also finished its business for the day and began to take stock and report. The jade-faced man was sitting there, but he was a little distracted.
The first class was given by Huaiyu himself. There was nothing complicated about it. He briefly talked about the necessity of battlefield first aid care and post-war medical care and some main precautions. Red, yellow and blue cloth strips were placed on the arms of wounded soldiers.
How did the stretcher team carry the wounded soldiers to the rear on the battlefield?
"Don't pee into the wound. Even if it is child urine, it won't do any good. It will only increase the chance of infection in your wound and make you die faster. Don't fill the wound with mud, saliva or other messy things.
Don’t even use donkey dung balls or horse dung to apply it...”
Everyone was very happy to hear that there was mutton soup to drink.
"Erlang, I heard that we also brought a group of camp prostitutes in our camp. There are more than a dozen of them. They are pretty good-looking. They are from Beiqu, Pingkangfang, Chang'an. They are all quite young. This long night is long, why don't we give it to Erlang and Mr. Ma?"
Call two?" Xin Zhao said with a smile.
We have plenty of time. The lecture starts before midnight (14:00) and we can have dinner at dusk (19:00).
Ma Zhou sat aside and wrote in his diary. Assistant Ma, who abandoned his pen and joined the army, was now appointed by Huaiyu as the chief inspector of Suiying Medical School.
He waved his hand: "I'm not interested. I advise you not to touch it. There are only a dozen or so among the tens of thousands of soldiers. They are from Beiqu of Pingkangfang. They are prone to diseases and are not easy to cure.
.”
Zhao Xin, who was still quite distraught at first, suddenly fainted when Huaiyu said this.
Each battalion sent some soldiers over to collect some herbs, which were mainly used to sprinkle some herbs into the toilet after digging it to prevent plague, etc. In addition to the herbs, some lime was also sprinkled.
Huaiyu and the others had no time to have fun. They could neither bathe in the river nor wrestle in the camp. They had to start classes.
The hospital camp in Huaiyu didn't need to do that. They had Uncle Dou Guo's permission not to participate in the camp. Even their horses and mules had people from the civilian camp to help them drink water, feed and wash them.
It was divided into several large classes, battlefield first aid class, medical nursing class, etc., each with its own emphasis. There were about 600 people in the hospital camp, and they occupied a large area.
The water basin mutton that Lu Huairang ordered in the evening was large and tasted very good. Although the price was not cheap, everyone was a little full, especially since they also ate a roast leg of lamb at noon. Zhao Xin thought about this in the tent
For the benefit of the employer.
Sixteen hundred dollars is their maximum limit for one night.
"I will compile a battlefield medical manual in the next few days, and I will teach it in chapters every day. You can also write it down and study it carefully."
Each team is assigned a sheep, which not only allows them to drink some haggis soup, but also eats a pound of meat.
In fact, he couldn't train a large group of doctors in a short period of time, but if the focus was on improving nursing care, he felt it was still feasible. With the current medical care methods in the Tang Army camp, there was still a lot of room for improvement.
It can greatly reduce the infection, death and disability rates of wounded soldiers, which is already a huge improvement.
During the rest of the time, Huaiyu taught them the preparation and dosage of the simplest battlefield hemostatic medicine.
"In the future, when you are responsible for medical care in various camps and camps, you must remember the first rule: wounds must be clean and hygienic, and you must use appropriate medication. Even if there is no medication, you must ensure it is clean..."
"When you talked about this, it reminded me that I should take some time tomorrow to tell the camp to arrange a physical examination for these female prostitutes accompanying the camp. From now on, it is best to have regular examinations every ten days or half a month.
So as not to spread the disease everywhere after getting sick."
Zhao Xin and Chen Xing, who were in the same tent, were there to plan the pharmaceutical preparations in the camp.
It's not that Huaiyu looks down on cheap ones, but there are too many people driving Beiqu's cars, and most of them are driven by traffickers and lackeys. This is not to mention in the military camp. The sanitary conditions in the military are also poor. What if?
It's not worth it if you catch some flower disease.
Huaiyu continued to compile his pamphlet.
Huaiyu talked for more than two hours at a stretch, and his saliva was dry.
"No amount of burning hair or anything like that can stop the bleeding."
The hundreds of people below listened very carefully.
They marched and set up camp in the capital, but every step was very orderly. Huaiyu believed that this was not a dogma, but an intentional opportunity to train soldiers. After all, the military system of the Tang Dynasty meant that during wartime, soldiers were temporarily drawn from various places to form camps.
They are not familiar with each other. If they don't take the opportunity to train and develop a tacit understanding, it will be very troublesome to go to the battlefield.
"It's almost getting dark. I've asked people to bring twelve sheep to your hospital camp to make soup for you. The stew is ready now. Let's drink the sheep soup."
"Alang?"
"Um?"
"The accounts have been reported."
"Oh, I got it." The jade-faced man waved his hand impatiently and asked the others to leave. He sat there alone, looking up at the moon, lost in thought.
