Chapter 214: First Aid in the Field

Liu Huo said: "Remember, the rebels are dressed the same as our army, and in order to distinguish them from us, all rebels have a red ribbon around their necks!" Wounded soldiers without red ribbons are our people. Don't make a mistake. ”

"Remember!" Zuo Shaoyang nodded.

Liu Huochang handed a white-clothed armor in his hand to Zuo Shaoyang: "Oh, this is the light armor and coat in my army's entourage, I'm sorry, I didn't have much more, so I found this one." After you have given emergency treatment to the wounded, call the Minzhuang stretcher team behind you to come up and carry the wounded. ”

Zuo Shaoyang was overjoyed: "This arrangement is the most appropriate, let's go!" ”

"Okay, you go out first, I'll go and call the other soldiers to follow immediately!"

"Wait for the general," Zuo Shaoyang called Liu Huochang to stop, "can you give me three shields and two knives?" ”

"Okay!" Liu Huochang looked at Miao Peilan and Bai Zhihan, who were wearing men's clothes behind him, called the soldiers, and took the long shield and two single knives for the infantry on three sides. It was handed to them.

The leather armor was a vest, mostly leather, with only two round iron plate goggles on the front and back of the heart. The short shirt on the outside is white, and the word "doctor" is written on the front and back.

Zuo Shaoyang handed the armor vest to Bai Zhihan: "Put it on!" ”

"I don't want it!"

"If you want to go with us, put it on, or go back immediately!" This is Young Master Ben's order! ”

Bai Zhihan glanced at him, silently took the armor vest and put it on the outside of his clothes.

Zuo Shaoyang put on a short shirt with the word "doctor" written on his body, held a long shield, and led the way to the outside of the city tower. Miao Peilan and Bai Zhihan followed behind with long shields and single knives.

When they arrived at the city gate, the officers and soldiers defending the city had been notified to let the military doctor go out of the city to treat the wounded. Get out of the way, Miao Peilan rushed forward and rushed to the front.

When the three of them left the city, the shouts of killing suddenly became louder, and on the small hillsides and official roads not far ahead, there were torches everywhere, and they lit as if it were daytime. It turned out that the light of the fire they saw was the torches held by both sides.

From time to time, sharp arrows flew over their heads, and the three cats rushed forward with their waists, and the city gates were littered with corpses and wounded, but there were many motionless and few shouting for help.

The reason is very simple, the ancient fighting is a cold weapon, many of the injuries caused by the wound are very large open wounds, blood loss is very fast, and this wounded wounded themselves are generally difficult to save themselves, because the previous front-line commanders of the official army did not let the military doctors go to the front line for treatment, to wait until the end of the battle to go, so many of these wounded can not be treated in time, due to blood loss and trauma surname shock and death. -- The wounded became dead bodies.

Zuo Shaoyang found that many of the wounded were not seriously injured, but they died due to lack of timely treatment, and he couldn't help but feel very heavy.

At this time, the warbands of the two sides were not too far away, and they were on the small hillside, and even the shouts of killing could be distinguished.

Miao Peilan and Bai Zhihan protected Zuo Shaoyang in front of him, Zuo Shaoyang used his shield to block his body, and bent down to check the wounded soldiers lying on the ground who were still moving or calling for help.

These wounded soldiers are really dressed similarly, and it is no wonder that the rebels turned out to be the Tang Army, and the clothing and armor used are naturally the same, which can only be identified by the red ribbon around their necks. Those with red ribbons are enemy troops, and those who do not have them are officers and soldiers.

Most of the corpses lying on the ground and the wounded soldiers shouting for help did not have red ribbons, that is, there were many more casualties among officers and soldiers than among the rebels. This made Zuo Shaoyang's heart tighten.

Zuo Shaoyang put the shield in his hand on the ground and began to look for the wounded soldiers who needed urgent treatment. Although he majored in Chinese medicine, he also studied the basic courses of Western medicine, and Chinese medicine itself also has first-aid content, and many of the contents are similar to Western medicine. The situation of field first aid is similar to that of emergency room rescue, except that the situation of field treatment is more special.

In the case of a large number of wounded in the battlefield, the principle of treatment is "first rush and then rescue, first heavy and then light, first urgent and then slow, first near and then far; Stop the bleeding first, then bandage, then fix and then transport". Therefore, it is necessary to accurately judge the severity of the injuries of the wounded, and to save lives before treating the critically injured and sick who have heavy bleeding, confusion, abnormal breathing, or respiratory arrest, weak pulse and cardiac arrest. For patients with multiple injuries, it is necessary to maintain unobstructed breathing, stop bleeding, prevent shock and internal organ injury, then deal with fractures, and finally treat wounds.

According to this principle, Zuo Shaoyang asked Miao Peilan and Bai Zhihan to be in charge of guarding and inspecting the wounded soldiers by himself. Help me, it hurts me! Ouch ......"

Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly went over, squatted down and asked, "Where are you injured?" ”

"Right foot knee! Ouch it hurts, help me! ”

Zuo Shaoyang saw that the knee of his pants was not obviously damaged, it might be a blunt force injury, and hurriedly opened his trouser tube, and sure enough, he saw that his right leg was strangely reversed, and the knee was already dented and deformed, and when he reached out and touched it gently, the kneecap had been broken into many pieces of different sizes!

Although Zuo Shaoyang has studied orthopedics, the treatment of fractures with a simple surname is generally okay, but he does not have the ability to treat fractures of such difficulty.

Moreover, in the case of a battlefield situation, as long as the fracture of the closed surname does not stab the internal organs and cause internal bleeding to be life-threatening, it is generally put to the back treatment, telling him that someone will come to save him later, and then continue to search.

Two more wounded were found, one of whom also had a broken leg bone and a hand bone, and the other an arrow wound. As long as the arrow wound is not pulled out and misses the vital point, it can generally last for a long time, so it is temporarily put aside and continues to search.

Although the torches lit up the sky, after all, it was night, the light in the lower places was not good, and the ground was full of people lying down, and they didn't know whether it was the enemy or their own people, and they had to guard against the enemy's sudden plots. Moreover, most of the blood-stained robes were lying motionless on the ground, and in such a situation, it was really difficult to find the wounded from the pile of corpses and see who was dead and who was still alive.

Zuo Shaoyang saw that there was a torch still burning on the ground, so he picked it up and lit it, and with the torch illuminating it, it was easier to find than before.

At this time, I heard a person shouting: "Lang Zhong! Lang Zhong save me ......! I am...... The officers and soldiers of the imperial court ......, save me ......!" I'm going to die......"

The voice was very weak, mixed with pain, Zuo Shaoyang looked at the voice, and saw a soldier leaning crookedly under the trunk of a tree, with no red ribbon around his neck, a thin figure, obviously a half-old child, with a immature face, at most fourteen or fifteen years old.

Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly went over to check up and down: "Where are you injured?" ”

"Legs! And hand ......"

Zuo Shaoyang saw that one of his right hands was cut off by Qi Wrist, and the tendons of both feet were severed.

Zuo Shaoyang first treated the severed hand, clamped his blood vessels with hemostats, pricked to death with thread, and then bandaged with a hemostatic bandage, and the hamstrings were cut off. However, even if the child is connected to the hamstring, he is afraid that most of the functions of the leg will be consumed.

After dealing with the young man's injuries, Zuo Shaoyang asked Bai Zhihan to call a stretcher and carry the wounded soldier down.

At this time, I heard a cry from the snow-covered bushes: "Lang Zhong ......, Lang Zhong save me!" I am an officer and soldier, and my stomach is ......! I got a stab in the stomach......"

Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly dragged him out of the bushes and helped him untie his armor, only to see that a mass of intestines had fallen out of his stomach, and the soldier looked down, coughed and cried, and reached out to stuff the intestines back.

Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly grabbed his hand: "Don't move!" If you stuff it back like this, it will infect the abdominal cavity! I'll take care of it, you lie down, yes, that's it, don't move, good! ”

As she spoke, Miao Peilan had already taken off the first-aid kit on her back and handed it to Zuo Shaoyang, Zuo Shaoyang opened the box and took out two palm-sized pieces of sterilized gauze and covered the ball of intestines that came out, the main problem now is not infection, but compressed intestinal necrosis, and asked, "Do you have a bowl?" ”

Ancient soldiers went out to fight, and they all brought their own dishes and chopsticks, and the soldier nodded: "In the ......, in the backpack!" ”

Bai Zhihan put down the shield, took the soldier's backpack, opened it, found a wooden bowl, and handed it to Zuo Shaoyang.

Zuo Shaoyang buckled the wooden bowl on the intestines covered with gauze, and then took out a triangular scarf from the first aid kit, one corner was wrapped from the crotch to the back, and the two corners were wrapped around the waist, and knotted and tied at the back of the waist. said to Bai Zhihan: "Hurry up and call Minzhuang to come over and save him!" ”

Bai Zhihan shouted loudly, and soon, two people squatting in the distance ran up with a stretcher, lifted the wounded soldier and put it on the stretcher, and ran towards the city.

Zuo Shaoyang held a torch to search, there was still residual snow on the ground, especially in the shade, the large snow was very thick, and the corpse fell on it, sprinkled with blood. Shocking.

Soon he found a soldier without a red ribbon behind a large rock, and the soldier groaned in pain, and when he saw him coming, holding a torch, wearing a white shirt, and a large word "doctor" on his chest, he could not help but be ecstatic, and struggled to raise his head and shouted: "Lang Zhong! Help me......"

Zuo Shaoyang hurriedly squatted down and said, "Where are you injured?" ”

"Back ......! A mace in the back! Ouch......, I can't seem to move, isn't it ......, my waist is broken......! I couldn't seem to move my lower body. ”

"You bend your legs and see, bend your legs!"

"Can't move! Ouch, it hurts! ”

Zuo Shaoyang first helped him untie his armor, then carefully turned him over, took out the scissors, cut his coat, groped his hands to check his waist, and found that his back waist was blurred with flesh and blood. The infantry generally wore the kind of light armor given by Liu Huochang, and they couldn't resist a mace attack at all. The spikes had stabbed the back of the waist and pulled open countless blood grooves.
