Chapter 82: Something Heavy
There was no air raid for a month, and the children in Chaoyang Orphanage were so happy, they wore new clothes given by Mrs. Jiang, ate a sweet biscuit during the meal, and then chased each other around the playground, and when Aunt Zhang was not busy, she would tell them stories.
However, Zhang Jiaxuan was very irritable.
- Shen Mengxi received an order to go to the front line in Changsha to support the treatment of malaria.
He was furious, "You're not an infectious disease doctor, you're still a woman, why do you want to go to the front line?" Resign! We all resign! ”
"Resigning is also a matter after I come back, and I can't back down in public or private." Shen Mengxi disagreed, she vaguely guessed the reason why she was sent to the front line this time. It's just not for sure.
Zhang Jiaxuan was deeply reflecting on herself, where did she offend people and implicate her sister, "Damn! It's too ruthless, if you have a grudge or a grudge, you will come to me! I'm so enough! Zhang Jiaguang has expressed his disappointment with the Nationalist Government and his disgust with each other within the government.
"It should be my own reason, and it has nothing to do with you." Shen Mengxi hurriedly said.
Zhang Jiaxuan was not comforted, but blamed herself even more.
The team led by the Central Hospital was Deng Xianzhang, an experienced infectious disease doctor, Luo Fugui, a Chinese medicine doctor, and then Shen Mengxi and three nurses in their twenties. To be honest, Shen Mengxi is like an abrupt outlier in this team, and even Deng Xianxian can't say the reason why Shen Mengxi participated in the support, but there is an order from above, and he is smart to keep his mouth shut. secretly guessed, could it be that this person was parachuted down and went to Changsha to lead the army? Or is there no risk in this rescue, but a rare opportunity?
The day before departure, Hongzhi came to the orphanage, he brought some food and clothes, saying that it was the heart of the colleagues in the Eighth Route Army Office, Shen Mengxi thanked him and accepted it.
Knowing that Shen Mengxi was going to Changsha, He Hongzhi was very worried. Shen Mengxi comforted him in turn that he would be very careful and would be fine. When Hongzhi was leaving, she handed him two keys to the safe of the Bank of China in Chongqing, "This is a friend of mine, who asked me to hand it over to your organization, only to say that it is a very heavy thing." ”
Hongzhi took the key and looked at Shen Mengxi with a confused expression. Shen Mengxi smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's not a bomb." ”
Hongzhi waved his hand again and again, he didn't doubt Shen Mengxi, but he didn't know what the so-called heavy thing was.
"Is it something important, do you trust me?"
"Silly boy, of course I trust you, and that's what you give to your organization. That person is no longer in this world. ”
"Ahh He Hongzhi sighed softly, "Don't worry, I will definitely live up to the trust!" ”
Shen Mengxi deposited part of Zhang Hanqing's gold in a bank safe and transferred it to the Eighth Route Army Office by He Hongzhi, which can be regarded as her little contribution.
In Zhang Jiaxuan's reluctance, Shen Mengxi boarded the plane to Changsha with the team, and brought with him a batch of drugs for the treatment of malaria that Tang Feifei had just developed, hydroxychloroquine, penicillin, and disinfectants.
Their plane was escorted by two fighters and flew to Changsha, Shen Mengxi's nervousness was seen by Deng Xianxian, "Doctor Zhang, are you doing a plane for the first time, don't be nervous, you will be in Changsha soon." ”
Shen Mengxi nodded, and said in his heart, I'm worried that the plane will be shot down!
Fortunately, they arrived in Changsha without any danger or danger, and they did not immediately go deep into the barracks, but were received by the commander of the war zone.
Among several commanders, Shen Mengxi saw a Soviet man, his name was Chekov, with a high nose and deep eyes, a thick beard on his lips, and fluent Chinese when he spoke, which made Shen Mengxi amazed, and what was even more surprising was that he was actually the behind-the-scenes commander of the battle.
Chekov's mission in China was to help the squadron hold back the legs of the Japanese army, prevent the Japanese army from moving north, and avoid the situation in which the Soviet Union could deal with the second-front operations of Germany and Japan at the same time. For this reason, the Soviet Union has successively sent 500 military advisers and 200 technical experts to China to train more than 100,000 people in recent years. More than 3,600 people were also sent directly into the battle, including 1,691 pilots.
To put it bluntly, China's role in World War II was to use its own country as a battlefield to hold back the main force of the Japanese army and allow the United States and the Soviet Union to smoothly strike at Japan's vital points.
For China, which is weak, it cannot independently confront Japan, and even if it understands that it is being used by other countries, it can only accept it willingly, and dutifully play its role,—— 98 of the ammunition in World War II was consumed on the Chinese battlefield.
Chekov came to China with 150 fighters, 100 bombers, 300 cannons, 500 trucks and a large number of related equipment. So he proposed to the Chongqing government to send an expert medical team, which led to the trip of Shen Mengxi and his party to Changsha.
After an afternoon meeting, the medical team quickly drew up a plan based on the report from the military doctor, and he proposed that the first action was to isolate the sick soldiers from other healthy soldiers for centralized treatment, and then completely sanitize the camp.
In the mountain col two kilometers away from the camp, a large number of tents were quickly set up to distinguish between severe and mild soldiers. The imported drug chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine developed by Tang Feifei were used, as well as the traditional Chinese medicine prescription of Luo Xiangui, a Chinese medicine practitioner accompanying the team.
Shen Mengxi had no treatment expertise, and even the doctors who accompanied her didn't say anything when they saw her wearing long-sleeved clothes, gloves and a blue mask.
In the medical tent, a soldier was so hot that he began to tear his military uniform, his face was red from the fire, and after a while, he shivered with cold, and he still shouted cold after covering two quilts.
A critically ill soldier, already dying, he was severely anemic, his whole body was convulsive, confused, and gibberish, although he was immediately treated and poured medicine, it still failed to save the young man's life. Previously, there were many soldiers in the barracks who were physically weak, so they died, even if they were mild, once they got sick, they had no combat effectiveness at all.
The treatment of malaria is not complicated, as long as there are symptomatic medicines, young soldiers with mild symptoms can recover quickly, of course, imported drugs are not cheap, especially in the case of such a large number of soldiers being infected, Shen Mengxi suspects that the Nationalist Government has actually known the situation of the 102nd Division for a long time, if it is not proposed by Chekov, it is estimated that it will be left to its own devices.
Shen Mengxi sprayed herself with mosquito repellent regularly, wearing long clothes, long pants and long boots on hot days, wearing gloves, hats and masks, waiting for her, Deng Xianzhang laughed at her, you are really fully armed.
Shen Mengxi smiled and said that it was not worth being bitten by a mosquito.
Due to the widespread use of special drugs, the young soldiers recovered quickly, and the health protection work in the barracks was also done very well.
During this period, a nurse named Qu Lan was in the menstrual period, busy for a day, exhausted, suddenly had a fever at night, back pain, extremely weak, the other two nurses, one on duty, one slept to death, Qu Lan had never been bitten by mosquitoes in her memory, she thought it was a cold, she tossed and turned all night, the next day when another nurse found out, she was confused, a rescue, still did not save her life, Deng Xianzhang said that she was cerebral malaria, the treatment was not timely, and she died quickly. After speaking, he looked at Shen Mengxi, and his expression meant that the risk was still very high, and the credit was not so easy to get.
Shen Mengxi smiled innocently and helplessly.
