Chapter 146 Medical Reform in Progress

"Hehe, who asked His Highness not to spread these recipes, or if you train a few chefs for my family, I will definitely not go to the hotel to eat in the future." Cheng Yanjin said with a smile.

"Hehe, don't even think about it, if this spreads, will the business of the lonely hotel be opened?" Li Shen replied with a smile.

Now many hotels in Chang'an City imitate the food in his hotel, but the taste is very different from the one made in his hotel, but it is estimated that it will not take long, sooner or later it will be copied by these people, but if you want to achieve his taste, it is not Li Shen's bragging, for the time being, they still can't reach it.

"It's okay, Your Highness is coming over today?" Eldest Sun Wuji looked at Li Shen with a smile and asked.

Li Shen smiled, his heart was a little empty, seeing that the New Year was coming, and the money owed had not been resolved, he picked up the document on the small long table and handed it to him, and said, "Uncle, take a look, this is the medical reform drafted by Lonely, and I want to take it out today to discuss it with all the Aiqing and listen to everyone's opinions." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji took it, opened it and looked at it, after a while, frowned slightly, handed the document to Fang Xuanling, looked at Li Shen and said: "Although this matter is a good thing for the benefit of the people, it is better to think about it if you promise the doctor an official position." ”

Li Shen nodded slightly, and said: "To solve the disease for the people, in Gu's opinion, what they do is bigger than anything, at least it is much better than those officials who only take money and do not work for the people, and the doctors all enter the hospitals run by the government to treat patients, so it is considered an official personnel, promising official positions, and it is not a big deal in Gu's opinion." ”

Fang Xuanling looked at it casually, nodded slightly, and said, "If you implement it according to this method, it's not impossible." He handed the document to Li Shen and said, "Your Highness, let's discuss this matter later." ”

His Majesty Li Er watched Li Shen sit below, plucked slightly, and sat down.

"If you have something to do, you have nothing to retreat ~~~"

The piercing voice sounded, and it can be said that it is a slogan that has not changed since the ages.

"Father, the son has something to do." Li Shen stood up, took the document and said.

The document was handed over to His Majesty Li Er, he looked at it very carefully, and after less than half an hour, His Majesty Li Er looked at Li Shen who was sitting below, handed the document to the eunuch beside him, and said to Fang Xuanling and the others: "Take a look at the prince's plan." He said to Li Shen: "Tell me what you think." ”

Li Shen nodded, and said: "Father and Emperor Aiqing should know about this matter, Gu arranged for Sun Daochang to go to the army with a group of doctors to teach medical skills, but most of the people in the army are frizzy and irritable, and after cultivating for such a long time, they can only do simple bandaging and simple treatment of wounds, so Gu took this matter to the court this time, and wanted to discuss a suitable treatment method with all Aiqing." ”

"What's the matter with the Medic?" His Majesty Li Er asked.

"Medical soldiers are in the army, and the sons are called medical soldiers, and they are a special branch of the army." Li Shen replied and followed: "And my father should know, how many soldiers in the army can be equipped with a doctor now?" And in the eyes of the doctors in the army, Zai Erchen, they are not very qualified to deal with wounds. ”

"You want to set up this hospital and train doctors on a large scale? But you have to know that this is not a trivial matter, training a doctor is not something that can be completed in a year or two, not to mention that the trained doctors, if they want them to go to the battlefield, it is difficult for them to agree. ”

Li Shen said: "It is precisely because of this that there are less than ten military doctors in the army of 10,000 people, which means that there is not a single military doctor for a thousand soldiers to diagnose and treat. It's a little better when it's cold, the wound doesn't worsen, and it's hard to get inflamed. However, in the summer, the weather is hot, and if the wound is not diagnosed and treated, it will become inflamed, and it is almost certain death.

And according to Erchen's observation, a big battle came down. The number of war dead is no more than 40 percent of the total casualties, that is, for every 1,000 soldiers killed, 600 died not on the battlefield, but on wounds that could not be treated.

Father, a veteran who returned from injury, his combat effectiveness is definitely stronger than that of a newly recruited recruit, and he trains a recruit. Nor is it necessarily less expensive than treating a wounded soldier. Perhaps the wounded soldier was only slashed by the enemy with a knife and only needed to be bandaged with some herbs to survive, but there was no healer, and he died of inflammation.

In fact, it is just a simple bandage, that is, it should be that the soldiers do not understand, the second is that there are not enough medicinal materials, and the third is that the medical institutions of the entire Tang Dynasty are too backward and must be controlled by the imperial court.

The population of Datang is not large. There are fewer strong men, and every soldier is a valuable wealth for Datang, and these wealth are not measured by money.

Father, we used to think that the dead soldiers were only killed in battle, but in fact, sixty percent of them died of illness. Father thought about it, if those wounded soldiers could be treated in time, then a thousand casualties could save the lives of 600 people, and the combat effectiveness of these 600 people after returning from injuries would not be weaker than the original 1,000 people, and even higher than the 1,000 strong men newly recruited, wouldn't it?

Last time, Erchen checked the casualties of soldiers in recent years, although there have been no major wars in recent years, but there are almost 10,000 sacrifices every year, nearly 10,000 sacrifices, most of which should not be treated before they are sacrificed.

Nearly 10,000 people died in a year, if half of my father can survive, you should know what this is for Datang? A family of 5,000 people will have a child in three years, can you imagine how much population Datang can increase in the future? ”

His Majesty Li Er nodded expressionlessly, reached out and knocked on the table, looked at Li Shen after a while, and said, "The idea is indeed very good, but it is difficult to prepare for it." ”

"The father should know that the holy order cannot be violated, and they will not have to enter the battlefield at that time, and besides, they are only in the rear, and there can be no threat to their lives. There are some things that you can't do as long as you want to do them, and for the future battlefield, Erchen can also achieve the minimum sacrifice, at least after the first battle, it is not like now. ”
