Chapter 39: The Wounded Storm (I)
In the early morning of November 15, the 3rd Division arrived in Nanjing, where it waited on the train to change the head of the train and went straight to Hankou......
After the train docked at the station, Li Yutang strictly ordered the commanders of all brigades and regiments to control the troops and strictly prohibit them from entering Nanjing......
"Division commander, I want to take Deputy Regiment Commander Xia to see the wounded soldiers of our regiment, who have been treated in Nanjing for so long. If I can, I want to take the ....... of Hankou with me," He Jianye asked for leave from the division commander Li Yutang in the station dispatch room......
"Well, you can go! But you must come back by 6 p.m. and board the bus on time; If your carriage is not enough to accommodate the wounded soldiers, you can ask me to coordinate for you! Li Yutang is not so inflexible, and he still allowed He Jianye to enter Nanjing City......
He Jianye, who came back from Nanjing in the afternoon, was a little depressed, 135 seriously injured, only 62 were brought back, and the others did not survive, in the Republic of China, where anti-inflammatory drugs were lacking, this ratio was already calculated, and He Jianye, who arrived at the hospital, looked at the hospital every moment There are seriously injured people in the hospital who die because of the inflammation of the wound because there is no anti-inflammatory drug.......
Zhu Ying looked at the 62 wounded soldiers who were missing arms and legs, many of whom had been disemboweled, and said to He Jianye with a frown,
"Regiment commander, these wounded soldiers are not the same as the ones in Suzhou; You have to prepare a lot of anti-inflammatory drugs, otherwise I don't think I can reach Hankow; Looking at the situation of these wounded soldiers, the wounds of some wounded soldiers have begun to become inflamed, but the symptoms are still very mild, but if there is no anti-inflammatory drug control, someone will be in a coma tomorrow, and then there will be no rut in the car! ”
"Would you use penicillin?" He Jianye asked softly,
"Huh? Can you get penicillin? Zhu Ying was surprised,
"I got a little bit, but not too little. There are also anti-inflammatory drugs that are taken by mouth. He Jianye said,
"Give it all to me! If you don't come to the wounded soldier carriage with you, I won't waste a single medicine on you!" After all, penicillin is equivalent to life-saving medicine for wounded soldiers in this era, Zhu Ying knew that He Jianye was not at ease, and said directly,
"It's 100 sticks of penicillin, and it's hard to get it. It's all for you! And this bottle of oral anti-inflammatory drugs, also for you! I won't go to the wounded soldiers' carriage, I'm more comfortable with the brothers! After He Jianye finished speaking, he handed over a wooden box, which contained all the anti-inflammatory drugs He Jianye got from Nanjing......
At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, as the train started slowly, He Jianye looked at the distant Nanjing, and the sense of powerlessness in his heart became heavier......
The train was running very fast at night, listening to the wind pouring in from the iron car, He Jianye seemed to see hundreds of thousands of unjust souls in Nanjing questioning himself in the wind, questioning all the soldiers in this country, why did they not protect them......
He Jianye, who was pondering, was pushed by Leng Qi next to him, "Commander, when you arrive at a small station, you have to stop for half an hour; You don't go down to breathe? ”
"Alright! Let's go! He Jianye climbed out of the crowd and came to the top of the train track, the dark night sky and the cold weather, He Jianye couldn't help but shiver......
"It's cold, it's cold, but it's more comfortable." Legasaki next to him is moving his arms and legs......
"Regiment leader, Dr. Zhu asked you to go to the wounded car, saying that he was looking for you for something." Next to him came a soldier who was helping in the wounded car,
"What happened to the wounded?" He Jianye frowned and asked,
"The lightly injured are fine, but the seriously injured are emotionally unstable, and Dr. Zhu can't control it." This orderly stumbled......
"Let's go! Check it out! He Jianye didn't care about Leng Qi, and ran directly to the wounded car......
"I'm not alive anymore, I don't have arms, how can I live? How else do you fight devils? Healed or a wasted person, doctor, you kill me! ”
.......
As soon as He Jianye entered the carriage of the seriously wounded, he saw another orderly pressing a seriously wounded man who had lost his left hand, and this seriously wounded man not only lost his left hand, but the gauze on his stomach and chest had clearly seen blood staining out......
He Jianye frowned, squeezed through the passage, stood next to the seriously wounded, and shouted,
"Shut up! You take your hands away! My He Jianye's soldiers are not so unproductive! ”
"Commander, how can I live like this!" This wounded soldier saw He Jianye coming, but he didn't make any trouble, but there was no trace of anger in his eyes, and he seemed to have no love......
"Regiment commander, these seriously wounded people were anesthetized when they got into the car, and now that they have been anesthetized, they are all starting to wake up; However, most people are emotionally unstable, and many people's wounds are beginning to crack; If it is not controlled, resulting in a large number of wound ruptures, the wound must be re-sutured; , you know, there are no conditions for surgery in the car......" Zhu Ying said with sweat on her forehead,
He Jianye looked at Zhu Ying, who was sweating all the time on his busy forehead, and then looked at these seriously injured brothers lying on the first floor, and said to Zhu Ying,
"Thank you. I'm here to persuade them, and I ask you to take care of them! These are all heroes who came down from the battlefield, and they are in a bad mood and collide with you, don't be surprised! ”
He Jianye turned his head, opened his throat with his eyebrows, and shouted to all the wounded soldiers,
"Brethren, I am He Jianye, your leader; You all know each other! He Jianye turned his body with great effort, so that under the dim light of the carriage, every brother could see himself......
"You are heroes who came down from the Songhu battlefield, you are fighting with the Japanese devils with your body and will on the battlefield, for the comrades-in-arms around you, for the fathers and sisters behind you, and for the land of our Chinese not to be mutilated by the Japanese devils, on the battlefield, you have never flinched, you are all warriors. I see your deeds, and I see your dead brethren; The pain you have suffered, in your opinion, is a kind of torture, a certificate that can only be exchanged for dozens of oceans of disability pension, and is the root cause of your painful life, I understand your thoughts; But I tell you, you're all wrong! ”
Speaking of this, He Jianye suddenly raised his voice, almost shouting in a roaring voice,
"The merits of the Sixteenth Regiment are not only the merits of one person, nor can they be proved by the dozen oceans you have in your hands; Your exploits will last forever, and every time we eliminate a little devil, it will indicate that there is one less evil ghost in the land where we live, and the wives and children behind us will receive less harm, and your exploits will always be remembered by the common people. Every scar on your body is a medal! It is a medal bestowed on you by the nation! ”
Speaking of this, He Jianye's voice changed again;
"But your performance now doesn't deserve the credit you deserve! A little pain, a little frustration, let you have the courage to live! Do you still have a little bit of a man's responsibility? The fine tradition of our Chinese nation growing up in pain, moving forward in hardship, and growing up in lessons has been completely lost by you! ”
He Jianye turned around and pulled Zhu Ying to his side, pointed at Zhu Ying and asked,
"Who is this? Yes, you all know that this is a doctor; But I tell you, they are doctors, but they are angels, so that we can continue after our sorrows, and they are angels who cast out our sorrows. You should be glad that there are doctors who are willing to do everything in their power to save you, instead of throwing you in the garbage like a piece of shit and letting you die in agony. I am afraid that you will lose even the minimum dignity of being a human being! ”
"With them, you can continue to provide your own strength for the anti-Japanese resistance after the pain; There can also be a chance for revenge! We should all be grateful to them! ”
"Commander, are we still useful? Look at these brothers, they don't even have arms and legs! A seriously wounded man next to him cried......
"Received your cat urine, now is not the time to cry, how can it be useless? You don't have arms or legs, but what you have is the experience of surviving on the battlefield and the skills to become a qualified soldier. I can tell you that when you are well, each of you will have a chance to continue to contribute to the war of resistance with your own strength! What you do depends on your performance. ”
"You all have to be quiet and think about it, if you feel that you are not worthy of this military uniform, then I will not stop you again, you all know that in China now, there is a shortage of medicine and doctors; No one is going to waste these scarce resources on a group of people who have lost their fighting spirit. ”
Speaking of this, He Jianye turned his head to Zhu Ying and said, "Doctor Zhu, let them think about it, you go and rest first!" ”
