0657 Treatment of Terror
In this way, the Dutch plan was not fulfilled at all! On the contrary, the morale of Liu Pei's side was raised. Everyone thinks that it would be a shame to lose to these fools!
What the Dutch soldiers didn't expect was that when they appeared in a smug line, they had already been listed as fools by their opponents! In the eyes of the Marines, what is it that a person who can't even walk neatly on the road is not a fool? But the Dutch people didn't know, so the more they went, the more they walked, the more they went, the more they went!
The Dutch soon crossed the clearing in the middle of the island and approached each other. Then I saw a row of people standing behind the opponent's first breastwork, and he actually raised his gun to aim at them! All the Dutch people are laughing at each other for being a stupid group of infidels! Don't they know that from such a distance, those smoothbore guns with a very short range can't hit people at all? Hey, look at that idiot, he actually fired the shotgun! And it's not just one person who hits!
Ever since the man fired the firebolt, the shooters behind the breastwork have fired the firebolt one after another. As a result, tragedy struck! One after another fell in the Dutch approaching strat! Someone was hit in the chest and lay on the ground only gasping and struggling! Someone was hit in the limbs and could only lie on the ground and cover the wound and wail!
The Dutch people were terrified! They don't understand at all why their opponents can hit them from afar? But they also quickly reacted, it should be the other party's fire gun is better. So the Dutch are still gritting their teeth under the leadership of the commander!
Five fell when the Dutch suffered the first blow. But when the opponent fired a second volley, they fell 15 people! By the time the third round of firecrackers came, 21 people had fallen! This is simply a huge blow to morale!
If the person who was hit died on the spot, it was okay, even if he didn't have the strength to howl, it was acceptable! But those who were not dead, but who had been struck in the limbs, lay on the ground, howling and crying hoarsely! This is nothing short of torture for the living soldiers!
Especially the soldiers, when they think of the wounded in the future, they are even more chilled! In Liu Pei's army, Liu Pei specially invited
Modern surgeons came to perform surgeries on soldiers. Now the two retired surgeons have trained a large number of children to enter the army, so the soldiers will not suffer too much even if they are injured.
And crucially, there is a systematic TCM system in China. Therefore, the soldiers can be better cared for, so as to alleviate the suffering and improve the survival rate.
And what does the West have at this time? Nothing! Who is the most powerful doctor in the West right now? It's a barber! Their treatment is bloodletting! Serious illness and big bloodletting, minor illness and small bloodletting. This bloodletting therapy continued much later. The first president of the United States, Hua Dun, died of a barber's bloodletting therapy.
As for the treatment of the wounded soldiers at that time, it was even more brutal! That's right, it's the word brutality!
After the wounded soldiers are carried back, they are not anesthetized, they are not sterilized, the doctor will tie them up, and then use a knife that has stabbed many people to cut the wounds of the wounded and dig out the lead bullets inside! In the process, the wounded are already in pain, or simply die!
But is this the most cruel? No, it's not over at all! Because the barbers of the time believed that lead was poisonous (and they guessed it!). )。 So after digging up the buckshot, the barbers decided that the wound had to be sterilized. And the way they disinfect the wound is to pour boiling oil into the wound, or simply burn the wound with a red-hot iron! So at that time, the wounded barracks were always filled with the smell of barbecue!
The scariest is yet to come! Once the wound is cooked, they wrap it in a thick cloth. As a result, the wound is not windy, and the scalded meat is very easy to infect! As a result, in addition to the smell of barbecue, there is a rotten taste! So in addition to those whose lives are so hard against the sky, many wounded people who don't deserve to die are also hanging. Even those who are lucky enough not to die will probably be left with a slight disability. For example, you can't use force or something.
There are even more terrible examples. There is also a famous attraction in Edinburgh, England, which is Death Alley. As recently as 1645, there was a massive outbreak of plague in Scotland. Doctors tried desperately to fight the plague, but were unsuccessful. At that time, the whole of Edinburgh had nearly one-third
Death of the population!
There was an alley in Edinburgh at the time called Mary King Alley. More than 500 people inside received miraculous healing and survived! The attending physician at the time was called George Rebi John Paulidi.
The council at the time told him that if he could save enough patients, he would be given a large bounty. So George went to treat the sick. His method of treatment is to tie the patient to the bed and cut off the diseased skin of the patient directly with a knife that has cut many people without cleaning! In other words, he cut off all the ulcers caused by the plague and used a red-hot iron to stop the bleeding!
He actually relied on this method to save many people. When George asked the council for a bounty after the plague had passed, the council defaulted. In the end, after more than ten years of delay, it was gone!
So the soldiers who were still intact were moving forward with the idea of gambling on their luck. It's all about betting that the smoothbore gun on the opposite side is not so accurate that it can't hit itself! But what I didn't expect was that before I could enter my own range, I was beaten by the opponent three rounds! A group of people died! That's not good!
You know, there are still a large number of people behind the second breastwork in the back who haven't opened the gun yet! But just as they were advancing with fear, about to bring the other party into the firing range, the shooters who had just shot at them actually rushed away with fire!
This made the Dutch both relaxed and angry! Finally reached the range of the return fire, and the enemy actually ran away. But then they got excited again. Because after the shooters left, the people behind the second breastwork quickly crossed the opening of the breastwork and ran to occupy the shooting positions of the original men.
The Dutch commander felt that his opponent would not be able to form his ranks quickly, and he still had time to move forward a little further and shoot in front of them. So he was relieved and boldly ordered the team to move on.
But the second time he was surprised! Those enemy soldiers who ran over actually maintained a roughly neat formation while running! And the most terrifying thing is that as soon as they stopped behind the first breastwork, they formed two roughly neat rows. And in three seconds, a little rectification eliminated the neat two rows of horizontal lines!
