Chapter 1247: You have to sit in a row and divide the fruits
Although this funeral attended by almost all military chiefs in Luojin County was the highest-standard one, it does not mean that this is the last one.
Long before last night, the bodies of soldiers who were killed in the last chasing or blocking war yesterday had already begun to be buried one after another.
The 3rd Army Luyun Brigade, the 12th Division and the 17th Division basically chose to bury the bodies of the soldiers who died in battle in the mountains where they died in battle, and wrote down their numbers and combat experiences in detail so that their descendants could come to pay tribute after the war.
However, Liu Lang advised these officials to leave detailed drawings of the burial tombs and archive the names and addresses of the officers and soldiers buried here, and asked the nearby villagers to take care of them.
Only he, a little butterfly from the future, knew that the Patriotic War was much longer than what these generals thought. It was not a year or two, but several times more time.
The wind and rain over time have long mottled the names and records on the tombstones.
In time and space, countless tombs of heroes fighting against the Black Hawk Empire disappeared silently in the terrible years. Not to mention that their families could not find their existence after several years of civil war, even if they had comrades who had placed them with their own hands, they would have no longer found a tomb that integrates with the green mountains after the war ended.
In later generations, many volunteers hoped to help the unnamed bones in the nameless tombs of the heroes who were accidentally discovered to go home, which moved countless kingdoms, but more of them were helpless. The long years have quietly erased almost all the traces they left in this world.
Even if he found it, his relatives were gone.
As soldiers, Liu Lang knew that they were not afraid of death, but they were afraid of being forgotten. Forgotten by time? Forgotten by relatives? Or, or by history? Perhaps, there were some!
Liu Lang hopes that such helplessness will not repeat itself on the land of the kingdom.
Liu Lang hopes that one day in the future, the descendants of these heroes and the descendants of the nations who were blocked by them stood on the towering Mount Xianlu on the traditional Qingming Festival of the kingdom, staring at the tombstones they made with flesh and blood, and saying thank you to them.
Although they may not hear it or they may not have thought of it, it does not matter.
What’s important is that the red leaves all over the mountain are stained with their blood, while the red flags and white flowers all over the mountain represent that a nation will not forget this era and this great era.
A nation that is prone to forget history has no hope. A nation that does not remember history will inevitably become a stepping stone for other nations in the great development of all ethnic groups, and eventually disappear into the tide of civilization development.
The generals listened to Liu Lang's suggestions and ordered the staff responsible for archives in each regiment's general staff to record the locations and officers' names of officers and soldiers and handed over to the division headquarters for preservation. At the same time, special funds were allocated to the nearby villagers, hoping that they could repair and commemorate the martyrs' tombs covered with the entire mountain after the troops left.
Before Liu Langlin went to Wenzhang Pass, he notified Liang Wenzhong that the seized from the homes of several Japanese members who were scouted from Luojin County to hand over to the 12th and 17th Divisions. The Luyun Brigade belonged to the Central Army and was much more abundant than those two divisions in terms of funding, so he solved it himself.
The soldiers who died in the battle in the Independent Regiment were not buried in the Dongguyongfeng area of Ling Pizhou. Officers at the lieutenant level and above were wrapped in white cloth and placed in coffins. The officers and soldiers below the sergeant were cremated on the spot and shipped by large trucks prepared by the merchant group. The Logistics Department and the Security Department of the Independent Regiment sent guards to send them back to the Independent Regiment Army's Cemetery far away in Andongcheng, Qiutongzhou for burial.
This work began as early as yesterday after the 77th Infantry Regiment and the 78th Infantry Regiment were wiped out, with Zhang Ruhao, Liang Wenzhong and Xiao Fenghua in charge of the matter.
The injured officers and soldiers originally had their own field hospitals, but Commander Iron and Lieutenant General Huang seemed to have targeted Liu Lang, a rich man. If they encounter those who need surgery or are judged by their own doctors to be seriously injured and difficult to treat, they will order these wounded people to be carried to the Independent Regiment Field Hospital.
Originally, the field hospital of the Independent Regiment was not large. Although the Independent Regiment won consecutive battles in the east of Lingpizhou, it was not completely unscathed. It was just on the front line of Beizhao Pass, hundreds of minor and serious injuries were killed in battle. In addition, the ambush in Yinan Village, the battle of river valleys, and two raids in Luojin County and Wenzhang Pass. Yesterday's final pursuit was caused by bayonet injuries, gunshot wounds, artillery injuries, and even falls, and the number was also more than 400.
Don’t think that the battlefield is full of gun injuries, and many people are injured due to various accidents during the charge and marching. For example, when the river valley was marching towards Luojin County overnight, because the mountain road was rugged and the vision was poor, at least two triple jumpers fell off the cliff and caused more than a dozen non-combat reductions.
It can be said that the field hospital of the Independent Regiment is a bit stretched to rescue the minor and serious wounded personnel of the Independent Regiment, but looking at the equipment of the two friendly forces, it is even less than enough. Not to mention the lack of military doctors who can perform surgery, there is even a serious shortage of various drugs. Many people even fail to even use anesthetics, so they have to be forced to amputate or sutured with wounds. They can only accept it with their teeth.
Many things can be queued up according to priorities, but the injured wounded cannot wait, and the result of waiting can only be death. The warrior dies on the battlefield, which is his destination and glory, but if he dies in the hospital or even on the bed waiting for treatment, it is a shame for every medical staff, and a shadow that will never be gone for life.
Because that is their battlefield.
The battlefield of the soldiers is on the front line, defending the country in the smoke of gunpowder, and the battlefield of the military doctors is on the operating table and on the hospital bed. They want to take back the lives of these soldiers from the hands of the god of death.
Field hospitals sent a letter of help from the regiment headquarters one by one. They needed more plasma and more doctors.
The plasma is easy to talk about. Without a command, the young men would roll up their sleeves and reveal their strong arms, pulling out their bright red blood and pour it into their comrades. But the doctor was the one who could not change it no matter how powerful the Commander Lang was.
Zhu Ruiping played a great role. After returning to Luojin County from the front line and knowing the troubles of Deputy Zhang Tuan, he volunteered to do the work of the captured Black Hawk Empire military doctors.
Perhaps it was because of the cruel military order issued by his commander after being broken by the city. Or perhaps he did not encounter the tragic fate he imagined after being captured. The Black Hawk Army doctors from the 20th Division who were massacred by his side were actually moved by Zhu Ruiping.
One afternoon yesterday, more than 30 Black Hawk Army military doctors participated in the rescue of the wounded. Moreover, there was no such phenomenon that the Black Hawk Army military doctors were worried about at first, deliberately injuring the lives of the injured. Although there were still several wounded people under their command, the judgement of their own military doctors was that the injuries were too serious, and even they were powerless.
Two days later, before the army in Luojin County returned to their respective garrisons, the two lieutenant generals were worried about patrolling their wounded situation at the field hospital of the Independent Regiment, and the two lieutenant generals could hardly believe their eyes.
According to the report they held, the two divisions sent more than 600 seriously injured people to the field hospital of the Independent Regiment. According to their own estimates, if 600 seriously injured people survive in two days, there will be 200 people, so I have to thank God.
You should know that in this era, wound infection is the biggest reason why the wounded soldiers cannot survive, and 70% of the wounded soldiers will eventually die. This is also the reason why soldiers' injuries and deaths are almost all the reductions in personnel. Not many seriously injured people can return.
But they didn't know that the most advantage of the Independent Regiment field hospital is not how high the level of military doctors is, but the drug reserves are sufficient, especially the Merchant Group has not yet been listed, but the Independent Regiment is an impatient new drug - penicillin, which is even more crucial to the wounded.
The effect of trauma and anti-bacterial infection is far higher than that of sulfonamide. This new drug, which is worth ten silver coins in Europe and the United States in the future, has been used by military doctors on the majority of wounded people, regardless of whether they are soldiers of the independent regiment or not. The chances of injuries who have used penicillin to survive the infection level are at least 90% higher than those who have relied on their own immune system in time and space.
As many as 85% of the seriously injured people survived from the two divisions. Although some of them were amputated and could no longer return to the army, they were still alive, and there were more than 500 people alive, which was twice the estimates of the two generals and still had a turn.
However, in the short term, these seriously injured people will not be able to return to the army, and all the troops have received military orders to adjust defense. To the term "Shangfeng", they are already considered elite. It is meaningless to stay in Lingpizhou East where there will be no war in a few months. They have to go to places where they need them more.
Although the 17th Division and the 12th Division need to be repaired due to excessive combat losses in the troops, the Independent Regiment has received military orders from the military headquarters and has already clarified where the Independent Regiment will go.
Then the places where these seriously injured people were going were a little difficult to deal with. In the end, Liu Lang took the initiative to come forward to help these two people solve their worries. However, it was not in vain. The request made by "taking advantage of the situation" almost made the two lieutenant generals stage a "two glasses-like generals beat the greedy fat man" incident in front of countless officers and soldiers.
Of course, these are all later stories.
The generals of the army, who had been busy for a day, finally received an urgent telegram from the commands of various military commands. Zhao Shanyu, the commander of the State Zhao Guard, had arrived in Chengguan City and would present medals to the main generals of the troops who fought bravely on behalf of the king. Although Liu Lang and Liu were just a colonel commander, he was specially named by the major generals of the army who arrived in Chengguan City and asked to go to Chengguan City to award medals.
Although the emergency telegrams of the commands said that they had stepped up the handling of front-line military affairs and rushed to Chengguan City, they thought that it would be unwise to leave Chengguan City, a major general who represented the leader to Chengguan City for a long time. There is no need for the leader to be unhappy. Just the one who was squinting at your number at the Royal Capital Military Headquarters, the military spending would probably be reduced by one third.
