Chapter 577: The turbulent international situation
Early the next morning, headed by the boss, accompanied by the brigade commander, Zhou Weihan, and Zhao Gang, they visited the wounded soldiers who were undergoing centralized treatment in Pingshun.
"It seems that the casualties in your Tainan Military Region this time are not small!" The boss said in a deep voice when he saw that the field hospital in the second division was full of wounded.
The words of the boss really speak to Zhou Weihan's heart: "Well, the casualties are not small. According to statistics, there are about 2,000 wounded people treated in the second division alone in this battle. Most of the lightly wounded people have been discharged from the hospital. The remaining ones are now
They are all seriously injured!”
"There are also many wounded in the field hospital in the first division, with more than 600 wounded!" Zhao Gang answered.
In fact, the lightly wounded Zhou Weihan refers to those injured in non-vital parts. After the war, these lightly wounded were bandaged by health workers and their injuries were repeatedly hospitalized for observation. The wounded with lighter injuries were directly treated by Zhao Gang.
They will be arranged to go to fellow villagers' homes near Pingshun.
After the combat troops returned, most of the lightly wounded personnel returned directly to the troops to recuperate.
"Do the medical staff still have enough medicine? Do you need some support?" the boss asked.
Zhao Gang glanced at Zhou Weihan after hearing this, and when he saw Zhou Weihan shook his head, he immediately said: "It's enough. The most commonly used drugs are anti-inflammatory drugs. We use sulfonamides, Yunnan Baiyao, and alcohol mixed with them. Nowadays, the field hospital in Pingshun has the main treatment
There are thirty-six military trauma doctors, more than one hundred and twenty intern doctors, and many nurses!"
"Don't worry, boss. Whatever medical equipment the Japanese military field hospital in Handan City uses, the field hospital in Pingshun has the same equipment. The medical conditions are no worse than those of the Japanese!" Zhou Weihan said.
The field hospital in the Tainan Military Region was also a grassroots team in the early days. Li Xianshu was the director, plus several Japanese military doctors and native doctors.
Later, as the Tainan Military Region captured Handan and Changzhi, two important towns of the Japanese army, the personnel and medical equipment of the field hospital became more and more powerful, combining Chinese and Western medicine, and combining Eastern and Western medicine.
After the Tainan Cadre School was established, considering that the army was still in urgent need of medical personnel, three medical training classes were successively established under the leadership of Zhao Gang and the leadership of Li Xianshu.
The medical training course is a crash course with no specific study time. Experienced military doctors serve as instructors, and students learn while practicing. Once the instructor approves, students can graduate.
For this reason, several people, led by Li Xianshu and Dr. Akita, also raised objections, believing that if the doctor's profession is not good at learning, it will delay the wounded.
However, Zhou Weihan believes that as long as he dares to pick up a scalpel, can stop bleeding and suture wounds, he is a qualified surgeon.
Today, the Tainan Second Division Field Hospital is located in Pingshun, with the largest number of medical staff and the most complete medical equipment. The Tainan First Division and several military divisions under the Hebei, Shandong and Henan Military Region are branch hospitals, each with several attending doctors and several intern doctors.
The medical level may vary, but the medical team is getting stronger and stronger, and can barely meet the post-war needs.
...
"We can rest assured that you two are here in Tainan!" The boss nodded, and then sighed: "The current international situation is unpredictable and unpredictable!"
"Later this year, Big Brother supported the weapons and equipment of three divisions of our Eighth Route Army. However, in April this year, it signed a neutrality treaty with Japan, completely interrupting the import of arms to our country!"
The senior leaders of the Eighth Route Army and many generals have been paying attention to the international situation. After hearing this, the brigade commander also said solemnly: "Germany is invincible on the European continent. Britain and France have been defeated one after another. Facing the threat from Germany, Big Brother is definitely not willing to provoke his colleagues in the Far East.
As an Axis power, Japan, I’m afraid the war between Big Brother and Germany will not end in a short time!”
The Soviet-German war predicted by the brigade commander was a consensus reached by many people internationally and domestically, and the war between the Soviet Union and Germany also began tacitly.
"Then will our Eighth Route Army still be able to obtain Big Brother's Soviet weapons and equipment in the future?" Zhou Weihan asked with concern.
"It's hard to say. Some time ago, Big Brother proposed to Yanzhou that our Eighth Route Army send two to three divisions into Inner Mongolia. They could provide a full set of weapons and equipment, but the superiors declined!" The boss revealed another secret.
.
Zhou Weihan felt dumbfounded. The Soviet weapons and equipment in the hands of the Eighth Route Army were likely to become fire sticks.
"However, the international situation is still favorable to us in China. According to the intelligence provided by the Communist International, the Japanese army has recently mobilized troops to the Indo-China Peninsula frequently. Combined with the current domestic situation, the Japanese army seems to be planning to attack Southeast Asia!" the boss said.
Zhou Weihan thought for a while and said: "The Japanese army is definitely going to take action. The little devils have not obtained enough strategic resources in China. Strategic resources such as oil are controlled by the United States. The wealth captured in our country has flowed into the hands of the old Americans.
The United States has always made a lot of money, and no one can bear it!"
"Nowadays, as the power of European powers in Asia is further weakened, Burma, French Indochina and even British India are like a piece of fat meat placed in front of the Japanese army. Faced with such temptation, it is impossible for the little devil to resist!"
"To put it bluntly, war is a struggle for the interests of various countries. At present, only the United States is staying out of the war and making a lot of money from the war. But according to my estimation, the Americans will not be free for long, let alone the Japanese army's interests in Southeast Asia.
, I’m afraid even European countries will not allow the United States to watch from the sidelines!”
"Once the United States intervenes, it will have a decisive impact on the international structure!" Zhou Weihan finally said.
After hearing this, the brigade commander smiled and said: "So, the next development will be beneficial to us in China. The United States needs our power to contain the Japanese army. Military assistance is certain, and as the Japanese army increases the pace of expansion, our military will
The strength will weaken, which is a good thing!"
"Perhaps this is why the Japanese troops in North China are eager to capture Changzhi. This is to solve the problem first. Unfortunately, the little devil's plan is destined to fail!"
No one present, including Zhao Gang, did it for free. All events happened not by accident, but were foreshadowed.
Often some politically and militarily sensitive people will guess in advance through the clues revealed.
On the way out of the city from the hospital, several people chatted and walked to the city gate.
The boss waved his hand and then said: "So, we still need to persist, this is a protracted battle!"
"Now, under the leadership of the Northern Bureau, top leaders from all levels of government have gathered to hold a meeting with Asada!"
"The first is to establish the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Border Region Government, and the second is to respond to disasters in various places and accept refugees!"
"It is reported that the disaster in Henan Province is particularly serious this year. Your two base areas of Taiyue and Tainan are developing very well. The army must also take the lead. The people, government, and army must work together to survive the disaster!"
