(184) Paradise Town
On 4 July, as forces on both sides became more concentrated, the fronts began to shrink sharply.
The medical stations in the various theaters of war gradually converged on a small town called Scutari near the front line,
The inhabitants had already evacuated to escape the fighting, and all the houses in the town had been requisitioned by the Imperial Army of Valstad.
Now the wounded soldiers finally have wards, and the doctors and nurses have decent dormitories, and they no longer have to live in tents.
The town of Skutari is painted with the symbol of the Red Cross that represents the hospital facilities, and the soldiers on the front lines have nicknamed the town "Paradise Town" because once the soldiers come here, they face nothing more than two situations.
One is to heal the wounds, perhaps with some disability, and then be sent to the Honorary Military Sanatorium in China, where he will receive a generous subsidy from Her Majesty's private patronage, and live a rich, heavenly life.
The second is to die in a hospital bed and go to true heaven.
"Paradise Town" gathers the elite of the Valstad Imperial Army's medical force, and many of them have been promoted to the higher departments because of their outstanding contributions.
For example, Mrs. Janening Winsted, the former head nurse of the 14th Medical Station,
Her knowledge and conduct were unanimously recognized by her colleagues, and the wounded soldiers she cared for also wrote many letters of thanks to her, so it was only natural that she became the chief nurse in "Paradise Town", under the command of hundreds of nurses from all over the country.
After being promoted, Jian Ning had her own ensuite dormitory, her own office, and a brand new white gown with a school rank, which gave her a lot of real power and could better manage the medical care work in "Paradise Town".
The first thing that needed to be solved urgently was the problem of labor shortage, and Jian Ning applied to the higher authorities to recruit more nurses within the empire, and due to the efficient handling ability of the General Logistics Department, her request was quickly approved, and the special funds were quickly paid.
Three days later, the first batch of nurses recruited from nearby towns arrived in a horse-drawn carriage to "Paradise Town".
Among them are ambitious girls school graduates, experienced nurses who have worked in hospitals, and a group of enthusiastic young volunteers who don't know anything.
The girls lined up in front of the office building, creating a beautiful landscape, and passing heralds and sick and wounded constantly whistled at them.
In the office on the fourth floor of the office building, Janen Winsted, the head nurse of Paradise Town, personally served as the interviewer.
Most of the interviewees managed to get the lucrative job, and only two were unsuccessful, one because they were too old and the other was obviously IQ problematic and made a lot of noise after being rejected.
In addition to inspecting the wards every day, Jian Ning also has to teach nurses and popularize medical and nursing professional knowledge to them.
This created a strange scene, every day before the start of class, Jian Ning was followed by a large group of girls in white, and soon, the injured and sick people of "Paradise Town" gave the head nurse a nickname, called "General in White".
On July 21, 1710, a new round of conflict broke out.
Valsta's Imperial Empress Sarantos Midknight led the main army to storm the coalition forces, and as the conflict intensified, the number of sick and wounded exploded.
On the night of the 23rd, in a large inpatient building in "Paradise Town".
Carrying a kerosene lamp, Janen Winstede walked around the wards, followed by two young trainee nurses and a logistics officer.
"Lily, and Charlotte, look at the wounded," Janine said, placing a kerosene lamp on the bedside table of a hospital bed, and turned to the nurses.
"In cases like this, we must pay attention to the fact that his blood has soaked in bandages and must be replaced with a new one as soon as possible, otherwise it is likely to cause a second infection, ranging from amputation to death."
"Yes, Madam Nurse Manager, we'll change him,"
As she spoke, the two trainee nurses took out a full roll of bandages and scissors from the metal tray of the cart and walked towards the hospital bed.
"Hey, you two ugly girls, I don't want you to change the bandages for Lao Tzu, I want your beautiful head nurse to do it himself." Said the wounded man on the hospital bed.
Hearing these vexatious words, Jian Ning frowned, and she found that the wounded man who spoke was a handsome-looking young officer,
His long unkempt brown hair was draped over the pillow, his body was covered with a hussar uniform, his wounded arm and calf were bandaged, his posture and expression were rather casual and frivolous, and his blue eyes were staring at him.
"Hey, are you deaf? Ugly girls, I said ask the head nurse to come and change my bandages. The wounded pouted and repeated his rude request.
Jian Ning has grown up beautiful since she was a child, she has long been accustomed to the attention of the opposite sex, but the person in front of her is obviously an unreasonable guy, she made a disgusted expression, wanting to ignore this person.
The two nurses looked quite embarrassed, and they asked Jian Ning, "Madam nurse, this gentleman said...... To make you ......"
Janine waved her hand, "I heard what he said, Lily and Charlotte, you two go help the other patients, I'll deal with this difficult guy." ”
The logistics officer on the side was obviously very dissatisfied with the wounded's attitude, but he did not speak, just watched silently.
"Sir, please raise your hand higher, I have a good job." Jian Ning said with a smile.
"Hehe, Lao Tzu lies in this stinking ghost place every day, no rum, no socialite, bored to death! You know, head nurse chick, you are my biggest expectation every day, every time I see you come to the ward to make rounds, I take a deep breath of the woman's fragrance from you, every time I see your long red hair and amber eyes, my heart beats faster, you are so beautiful, little baby. ”
Jane Ning ignored his rude words, and just continued her work, and she said, "Sir, don't move, it will be bandaged soon." ”
The wounded man was even more aggressive, and kept talking:
"To introduce myself, I'm Major Robbie Prey of the 23rd Hussar Regiment of the 23rd Cavalry Division, and as long as you're a Valstad, you've definitely heard of my family,
My family owns more than a dozen large farms, as well as horse farms, and I am the first heir to the property, and my monthly pocket money is enough to buy a property, so I joined the army to fight in order to find some excitement.
How about it, little girl, it's a rare opportunity, the most brave and handsome young master in the empire is talking to you, let's make an appointment to meet alone? ”
