"Do you have any brains? Crazy? Jiang Ning, who frowned, asked coldly.

"Sir, sir, we're just not convinced...... I've been upset to see these guys showing off their might. ”

"If you are dissatisfied, you will hold back until now? Aren't you all getting into trouble yourself? ”

Military law clearly stipulates that a gendarmerie violating the law is a violation of the law by knowing the law, and the crime is increased by one degree; Officers and men who refuse to cooperate are in contempt of military discipline and will also be guilty of one more degree.

The original intention of the two gendarmes was to dissuade and stop the violation of the law, which was completely reasonable, while the other party obstructed the enforcement of the law, and committed two major crimes: verbal abuse and violent resistance.

Originally, if it was stopped at that time, it would be over, and at most the two gendarmes would be given a pack of cigarettes, but now it will not end well.

Later, several gendarmes arrived, handcuffed the three soldiers of the Fourth Division, and the dejected servants were loaded into trucks and slowly drove to the headquarters of the army.

"If you don't say anything, it's three years in prison and a hundred sticks, and then your ass will bloom. We have to attract a lot of grudges before we would rather do this. One of the gendarmerie sergeants sighed a few words, and then also got on a sidecar and left.

The impulse is cool for a while, but after calming down, you have to regret the beginning, but there is no regret medicine in the world, otherwise what is the meaning of the existence of the law?

Jiang Ning looked at Komatsu Jasmine on the side, and the eyes of the two met, and the latter quickly withdrew his gaze and lowered his head.

"Let's go, let's take care of the wound by the way."

In those years, there were no antibiotics, and the available antimicrobial drug sulfonamides had not yet become widespread, so a small traumatic wound could cause an infection and eventually die from sepsis.

Naturally, Jasmine doesn't understand Chinese, and she doesn't even know much kanji after graduating from St. Mary's Church elementary school, but if it's a government school in Japan, kanji and ancient poetry are compulsory subjects.

Helplessly, Jiang Ning took out the notebook she was carrying and wrote a few words, and made a few more gestures, which made her understand the meaning.

Since I was going to Zachary General Hospital, it didn't hurt to take one more person.

In Komatsu's opinion, the young officer's off-white collar badge is really different.

In the past half a month, she has seen dark green, lilac purple, and jet black, but this is the first time she has seen it.

Different from the pure white that gives people a sense of purity and purity, the off-white with a hint of milk yellow makes people feel softer and warmer, just like her current state of mind.

The sidecar motorcycle made a popping sound and returned the way she came.

Founded by two French doctors, Zachary General Hospital was originally a private clinic, but after more than 30 years of development, it has become one of the largest hospitals in Tokyo's public concession.

Because the field hospital was more focused on caring for trauma, more than a dozen critically ill wounded and sick from the 1st Marine Regiment were transferred here for more comprehensive treatment.

Three people suffered bacteremia due to traumatic infection, four had severe pneumonia, one had acute pancreatitis, one had acute hepatitis, two had severe parasitic diseases, and two had extensive burns, all of which were highly dangerous and fatal diseases.

If we estimate the effectiveness rate of previous treatments, we will be thankful that a quarter will survive in the end.

Nurses walked back and forth with trays of medicines, blue-gray clothes, white aprons, hair tied back at the back of their heads, and white bandanas.

Jiang Ning, who looked solemn, walked past one hospital bed after another, and finally stopped outside the special ward for severe burns - patients with large-scale burns on the whole body are extremely susceptible to infection and cannot enter, even medical staff must be carefully disinfected and sterilized.

Through the glass window, he could see the two bandaged patients asleep in their beds.

As a military doctor, he is more aware of the danger of the situation, although he has experienced countless times, but when he really faces the situation of powerlessness, he still can't help but feel sad, and the deep sense of powerlessness makes him feel that his heart is held tightly by an invisible hand.

"Mr. Lieutenant, I'm sorry to inform you that one of the patients with pneumonia is getting worse again, and he may not survive tonight." A middle-aged French doctor with a stethoscope on his chest said in a deep voice.

The accompanying hospital translator repeated this sentence, and when he heard this, Jiang Ning asked, "Do you have any efforts?" Have you tried to 'express the deficiency and fix the disease'? ”

"Since you agree to be admitted, you will do your best. Now that all three sulfonamides are ineffective, there is nothing we can do. May God bless him. ”

After a period of application of sulfonamides, bacteria will develop drug resistance, and it is a special cross-drug resistance - after a certain type of sulfonamide fails, all other classes of sulfonamides will be reduced and ineffective.

"Life and death are impermanent." Jiang Ning sighed in a low voice.

Less.

After filling in the investigation against the roster, he walked down the steps step by step.

Downstairs, Jasmine Komatsu, who had been debrided and bandaged by the nurse, saw him coming down, so she hurriedly stood up, bowed and said "thank you" in strange Chinese.

Because of his heavy mood, Jiang Ning just nodded, and then walked outside the building to prepare to drive back to the station.

Only then did he remember that the girl just now, since her palms and knees were injured and she was unable to walk, it was better to take her back by the way.

The language barrier, speechless all the way, not to mention that Jiang Ning, who was depressed, didn't want to speak very much.

The young girl's clear eyes soothed his depressed state of mind a little, and made him feel better somewhat.

When he returned to the regimental headquarters of the 1st Marine Regiment, he told Zhou Changfeng, who was packing up his belongings, about the previous incident.

Hearing about the mutual assault, Xie Wancheng was the first to complain: "This is the so-called lard blinded by heart, and I will regret it afterwards." ”

Zhou Changfeng stared at a group photo and said casually: "As long as the sample size is large, all kinds of strange things will happen." Let's take this as a warning, don't think of yourself too noble, and don't think of others too lowly, no matter how you say it, it's not ancient, and you still have to take human rights into account. ”

Xie Wancheng on the side muttered: "But in essence, it is one expensive and one cheap......"

Zhou Changfeng glanced at him, "Indeed, but the superficial respect still has to be given, and most people are easily moved by this appearance, so it can significantly reduce hostility, with a small cost and a large benefit, which is a sure way to make money and not lose money." ”

After speaking, he looked at Jiang Ning, who was about to retreat with his fists, and asked, "Also, what's wrong with you?" It's sad to look at. ”

The latter was silent for a few seconds, and replied truthfully: "The dozen or so wounded and sick are not optimistic, I am afraid that they will be difficult to treat...... Alas, if only there was a panacea. ”

"There will be, and there should be hope for two years." Zhou Changfeng smiled: "Anyway, you are also used to seeing deaths and injuries, why are you so depressed today?" ”

"There is a big difference between dying of war wounds and dying of serious illness, and I don't have much to think about when I fight."

"Yes."

Antibiotics are really one of the most important creations in human history, and the antibiotics represented by them have skyrocketed the average life expectancy of human beings by more than ten years, and human beings can finally die without worrying about being killed by some inconspicuous minor injuries and diseases.

The story of penicillin's discovery is well known, and in addition to the climatic characteristics of the British Isles, Fleming's own character and experience also played a big role, which led him to notice his own inadvertent mistake - the appearance of green mold in the petri dish killed the surrounding Staphylococcus aureus.

Fleming then published his findings and published a paper in the British Journal of Pathology titled "Experimental Findings on the Potential Efficacy of Penicillin".

However, Fleming himself was only a medical doctor, and he and his assistants were unable to find a way to cultivate and purify penicillin on a large scale; At the same time, in mouse experiments, penicillin killed harmless colonies in the mice's intestines and died, which led Fleming to suspend research on penicillin.

To this day, this discovery has not attracted people's attention, partly because the rapid development of sulfonamide antimicrobials in recent years has attracted the attention and enthusiasm of the vast majority of practitioners in related industries.

It was not until the eve of the Great War that Howard Florey and Ernst Chain of Oxford University stumbled upon Fleming's paper ten years earlier, and they decided to work together on the properties of the so-called penicillin.

They quickly validated the amazing properties of penicillin and then set out to solve the extraction and purification problems that Feleming could not overcome. They recruited many girls for very low wages and cultivated Penicillium in strange utensils such as bathtubs, bedpans, milk stirrespers, empty cans, beakers, etc.

What's more, biochemist Norman Heatley succeeded in extracting penicillin from the filtrate using a counter-flow system, which finally gave people a glimmer of hope.

Is this series of processes really difficult? Not really, the greater reason was that these medical scientists had limited resources and energy at their disposal, and because of the war, the British government had no spare time.

The problem now is that Zhou Changfeng doesn't know if anyone in Daming is doing a similar job.

With hundreds of colleges and universities, hospitals, and clinics, there may be someone who happens to read Fleming's paper and is trying to verify and solve the corresponding problems.

And nowadays, there is no network and big data, and trying to find someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

It's okay to take the initiative to propose it yourself, but it's a bit surprising - how can you still understand biomedicine?

It is reasonable to propose forward-looking weapons and equipment, but the span of biomedicine is still too large, and this cannot be fooled by "occasional self-study".

"Report, everything is ready, sir, shall we leave now?"

"Okay, let's go."

Although it was estimated that he would not be able to return to China until May or June, the actual situation went more smoothly than everyone expected.

The Second Army will probably remain there for a while, and then another unit will come to take over.

So the day before yesterday, Zhou Changfeng tried to apply for a return leave, and it was approved without suspense, and now he can justifiably leave the army and return to the capital for five days of vacation.

Many officers prefer to travel in fighter jets or bombers, the former being fast and the latter being safe.

The same is true for Zhou Changfeng, but at the moment several fighter and bomber fleets of the Air Force have no transfer missions, so he can only take a transport plane full of air mail.

The clouds were high this evening, and the plane flew smoothly at a cruising altitude of about 4,000 meters, crossing the Daming Sea, or the East China Sea.

When it approached land, the cargo plane, which was converted from the Youyun 2 passenger plane, began to slowly descend in altitude, and finally broke through the clouds.

The plane was heading directly towards the sun in the west, and looking out through the round window, the coastline was directly below, behind which was the sparkling sea reflected by the setting sun, and in front of which was the vast urban area of Shanghai.

Although the altitude was still thousands of meters at the moment, Zhou Changfeng, who still had good eyesight, could still see the silhouette of the huge battleship on the slipway of the shipyard.

One, two, three...... The silhouettes of the two battleships and two aircraft carriers are clearly visible, in addition to a succession of other medium warships, such as light cruisers and seaplane carriers.

The Washington Naval Treaty has expired, and the Ming Navy, which has received an additional budget under the War Readiness Act, has begun an ambitious construction program - according to the tentative construction plan of the "Draft Construction of Naval Ships Ready for War Expansion", nearly 80 warships of various sizes will start construction one after another.

Two new 40,000-ton battleships, three 14,000-ton light aircraft carriers, two 25,000-ton aircraft carriers, three light cruisers, 16 destroyers, four minelayerers, four minesweepers, eight submarine hunters, nine landing ships, and a number of small ships.

The same agenda is underway in the United States across the ocean, with the famous Second Vincennes Act passing a budget of more than $1 billion, expanding by at least 20 percent from the current base.

When half of the sun sank below the horizon, the cargo plane carrying Zhou landed at Takahashi Airport.

In order to give a surprise, he didn't send a telegram when he set off, so when someone Zhou knocked on the door of Xia's house, Xia's father, Xia's mother, and Xia Xiaoshi thought it was a late postman.

"This postman is quite dedicated, and he is still delivering letters when the sun is about to set." Gao Linglu beckoned his daughter to open the door while serving the dishes.

Then when she brought the pot of winter melon pork rib soup to the dining table, she heard Xia Xiaoshi's exclamation outside.

Because the earliest thing he said was that he would return to China in June, and the letters these days did not talk about returning early, so Zhou Changfeng, who was an "uninvited guest", really shocked Xia Xiaoshi.

Her eyes were full of surprise, her small mouth opened slightly, and after a few seconds, she said in surprise: "Sir? ”

"Everything is going well, these days are also stable, so I took leave and came back for a few days." The smiling Zhou Changfeng patted her on the shoulder, then grabbed her hand and walked towards the courtyard.

"Huh? That... Do you want to go after that? ”

"Of course, it is estimated that I will have to stay for another month, and wait for the rotation, so it is inconvenient to talk about the rest."

"Hmm."

Xiao Biesheng is newly married, and the hard work of teaching and teaching, and the fatigue of taking the opportunity to travel are almost swept away.

Dinner is dinner, but the world of two people is the most comfortable.

Therefore, after a meal, they immediately left the Xia family and returned to their own small mansion.

So, it was destined to be a night of all-night overtime.
