148: Guardian

The army's new armor and helmets have given the soldiers of the army a stronger protective ability, the army of the mountain village has fought a lot of battles in recent years, but most of them are intentionally fighting unintentionally, and are prepared to fight unprepared rapid assault battles, and the high-quality firearms and combat opponents who are two hundred years ahead of this era often suffer heavy casualties after a rapid triple attack, resulting in a collapse of morale, even in the face of a large number of opponents with a more complete defense system, a burst of artillery bombardment can basically kill the opponent either or to death, In Luo Dan's words, I haven't met a few opponents who can stand up!

However, it is not that there have been encounters and hard battles, especially the battle of Chabao, which was a heavy casualty to everyone who felt invincible in the world at that time, many of the soldiers who went through that battle are now promoted to become squad leaders and even deputy platoon leaders and platoon commanders after training and learning.

Through the actual combat over the years, we have found that most of the main casualties in previous battles come from three major parts: arrows in frontal combat, sneak attacks in close combat, and accidental injuries due to improper coordination.

Not to mention the fact that the Ming army still has the information of various opponents in the north who are good at riding and shooting, the bow and arrow has been a long-distance attack since the emergence of the Cold Weapon War, even if the Xia style rifle that the army is now equipped with can already achieve an effective range of 300 meters, and the Xia modified rifle with copper shells can achieve an effective range of 400 meters to break armor, but China's terrain is not all plains...... The mountainous areas in the south and the hilly areas in the north, and even the current terrain environment of Guangxi is destined to have to compress the effective distance between their own battles, and the opponent's arrows can also pose a great threat to the soldiers.

In the battle of attack and city search, sneak attack or short-range raid reduces the advantage of firearms to the lowest point, in previous battles, a large part of the casualties are from this piece, even if you are careful and perfectly match the formation, you can not absolutely avoid any accidents, especially in the city street search battle, you can't be sure whether there are hidden enemies under the buildings and the wreckage after being bombarded...... Moreover, many houses are earthen houses these days, not to mention artillery grenades, and the dust that falls from a row of bullets can cover the enemies hidden underneath with the best camouflage color......

Through the analysis of the casualties caused by this part of the previous battles, we found that there are two main weapons for this part of the casualties, one is a short knife, and the other is a dagger or a sharp stab with a spear or something, after all, the sneak attacker can't have enough space to give him a spear or a heavy hammer or something, since it is a sneak attack, then the weapon must be short, and the damage method is mostly stabbing and scratching, as well as a small amount of slashing.

Therefore, the armor allocated to the soldiers in the mountain village is mainly the slashing and arrow damage of the defensive standard war knife, and the stabbing damage of the spearhead is the ...... This kind of opportunity is not impossible, but the probability of occurrence is already very small, and there is no need for everyone to wear dozens of pounds of heavy armor to fight......

Of course, the last kind of injury comes from the accidental injury of one's own people...... In front of a rifle bullet, you just hang two layers of armor to prevent the puncture of the lead bullet, and the bones of the body will be broken by the kinetic energy transmitted, which is more difficult to heal and painful than the wound of a direct penetration...... Not to mention the accidental injury of the cannon, regardless of whether it is an artillery shotgun or a solid iron egg flowering shell, it is basically a dead ...... Therefore, although the number of accidental injuries is not very many, as long as the unlucky ghost who is hit every time is either severely disabled or dead, those who can survive belong to the lucky ones among the lucky ones...... In the end, the total number of casualties and attrition caused by accidental injuries can occupy a place among the three major types of casualties......

In addition to the guarantee of armor, the people who wear white clothes or white strips of cloth tied to their shoulders and soft hats in the battle team are also the last line of defense for the life of the guards - the medics!

After all, the mountain village has not so far collected a few serious doctors from the outside world, and the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine are also destined to train a qualified Chinese medicine doctor for ten years or even decades of experience, so although Deng Shifeng does not like Western medicine very much, he cannot deny the advantages of Western medicine regulation and templated education and training, and for this kind of knife and gun wound treatment, Western medicine also has its own great convenience and advantages.

After several years of accumulation, the education system of the mountain village has trained hundreds of junior medical personnel, and a group of trainees with basic rescue knowledge and a large number of soldiers with the same basic rescue level (soldiers will receive special training on how to save themselves, and no soldier will hate to learn this life-saving knowledge), although these junior medical personnel can only see a minor illness and are good at trauma treatment, but even so, these medical personnel have been praised by people from all walks of life from the top administrative level to the bottom of the people. Everyone wants to have a doctor when they are sick or injured......

Since there are not many formal medical personnel, and they also have to take into account the medical and health work in the territory under their rule, they are usually divided into two groups of personnel, one group follows Deng Shifeng in school to learn more knowledge and cultivate their younger brothers and sisters, and the other group enters the medical points opened in various villages or mobile medical service teams. Deploy troops and anticipate casualties between the enemy and the enemy, and send as many medical personnel as possible with the team.

In many battles, these special personnel with white logos are often the most preferential objects on both sides, note that the word "preferential treatment" is not put in double quotation marks.

Take the recent attack on Liuzhou City as an example, when the officers and soldiers defending the city saw these white markers wearing flower skins rescuing their robes that were injured by artillery shotgun bombardment, they refused to attack these people from the bottom of their hearts, even if they knew that they were in a film with Hua Pi Zhen and had little hope of survival, but everyone hoped that if they were lucky enough not to die on the spot, they could get effective treatment and survive......

This is the tacit unspoken rule of both sides on the battlefield, whether it is the West or the East, whether it is modern or ancient in later generations, the doctor, a special profession that can save people from the brink of death, since its appearance, has been respected by people for the biggest reason.

However, few people know that the medical team organized by this mountain village medical team has a certain amount of selfish and tactical intentions in the rescue process: rescuing the enemy's wounded can not only gain more practical experience and ready-made medical test subjects, but more importantly, it can also stabilize the emotions of the prisoners and facilitate post-battle control. Of course, it must be the priority to rescue its own personnel, and there must be a certain difference in its drug consumption......

And in addition to the newly equipped armor and the growing medical team as a life shield for the soldiers, there is one more thing worth mentioning...... That's the external wound medicine that Yamamura himself researched!

Trauma medication is the most mentioned in a certain website novel, sulfonamide powder, this product does have the effect of sterilization and anti-inflammatory, but because it is excreted by the kidneys after absorption by the human body, it will cause crystals to form in the urine, which will have adverse effects on the kidneys. However, because it belonged to the kind of low-cost and easy-to-produce chemical in the 20th century, coupled with the propaganda role of American film and television propaganda, many people believe that this is the best medicine......

However, there are shortcomings, and naturally it cannot be generalized, no matter how side effects sulfonamide is, it also has its own advantages, but with the current chemical strength of the mountain village, it is naturally impossible to make a large number of sulfonamide powder, so the advantage of sulfonamide powder has lost its advantage in maximum production capacity......

As early as Deng Shifeng led a team of people to ambush Liu Mazi's caravan battle in Liucheng County, the hemostatic trauma medicine used by himself after the old horse was injured attracted Deng Shifeng's attention.

There are not many valuable things in Guangxi, but in ancient times, in addition to some minerals, grains and wood that can be produced in large quantities in Guangxi, there is also a special product brought by Guangxi's geographical environment - medicinal materials! And among these medicinal materials, there is a medicinal material that has a large output or harvest in Guangxi and is quite valuable - Tianqi!

Tian Qi, also known as Sanqi, also has the reputation of not changing gold. This thing is known from pharmacology and various studies in later generations that it has extremely strong hemostasis and hematopoietic effect, and it belongs to the top category of hemostatic natural medicines (dare not say first, although some information on Baidu says that it is the first, and Yunnan Baiyao has such a strong ability to stop bleeding, although its formula is confidential, but from the origin of Yunnan and the raw materials of natural medicines, you say that there is no Tian Qi really can't be said), although in later generations it is the largest yield and the best quality in Yunnan Province, However, Tianqi in Guangxi is also close behind (both places are basically planted, and the wild ones are almost invisible).

In addition to Tianqi, Guangxi also produces many other natural medicinal materials that stop bleeding and eliminate stasis and promote the elimination of decay and muscle. It is precisely because of this basic characteristic that Deng Shifeng asked Huang Zhangshi to try his best to purchase and produce Tianqi and other medicinal materials outside for reserve, and after an unknown number of proportions and tests, he finally determined a traumatic medicine that can quickly stop bleeding and ensure that the supply of raw materials can meet the supply needs.

This medicinal powder is currently named Wai Rescue No. 5 Powder, sealed with a small bamboo tube wax for later use, and each soldier will be given a tube before leaving for the battle, and will be placed in his chest pocket for easy access at any time. This powder has proven its hemostatic effect and life-saving effect after many practical verifications, and together with armor and medical personnel, it forms the most important triple line of defense to protect the lives of soldiers in mountain villages......
