Ming Zuo

Chapter 380 Medicine and Seiko

The reason for thinking about building an engineer shovel is that one is needed for digging fortifications, and the other is to make up for the lack of melee weapons of the new army.

The bayonet of the new army is sharp enough, but the bayonet can only stab, not chop.

This limits the new army's performance in hand-to-hand combat.

But with a shovel, it's different.

As we all know, the shovel is really an almighty weapon for home travel, murder and arson.

Regarding the issue of the trenches for the next battle, Zuo Menggeng personally wrote a textbook and ordered the distribution of the entire army.At the same time, he personally taught regiment-level cadres, and let them go back and teach them.

The war in the late Ming Dynasty was not only rampant with firearms, in fact, there was already a little shadow of the war.

For example, the use of trenches is very complicated and scientific.

Of course, in Zuo Menggeng, the trenching technology of this era is still at the pediatric level.

At least the new army looked up and down at his trench ideas, and everyone was shocked.

Just when the soldiers were training hotly in the Yimeng Mountains, bad news came from Linqing.

Li Banghua fell ill.

Zuo Menggeng hurriedly unloaded his affairs and returned, but found that the situation was much more serious.

"My uncle has been suffering from abdominal pain since a few days ago. I have seen many doctors, and they all say that it is a disease of intestinal carbuncle. Whether it is possible to live or not depends on the destiny."

Li Rixuan stood at the head of the bed, watching Li Banghua in a coma, and wept.

The rest of the people waited and sighed, helpless.

Zuo Menggeng looked around and found that the doctors invited by the Li family were all traditional Chinese medicine practitioners.

As for Li Banghua's intestinal carbuncle...

For a moment, he thought about whether it could be appendicitis.

But Zuo Menggeng knew a little bit of medical skills and knew that in ancient times appendicitis was indeed called intestinal carbuncle, but intestinal carbuncle and appendicitis were not the same thing.

In this case, the only thing you can do is to consult a professional.

"Hurry up and invite Mr. Deng Yuhan to come."

Fu Yijian immediately took the order and left.

Deng Yuhan came very quickly, and also brought a lot of people and equipment.

It seemed that Fu Yijian had explained the situation to him.

"Zhongheng, can I check Mr. Meng An?"

Seeing Zuo Menggeng call a blond foreigner, all the doctors present looked ugly.

An old man snorted even more angrily: "Don't General Zuo believe in the medical skills of the old man and others? How can the barbarians of Fanbang be compared with my Zhonghua Xinglin?"

In an emergency, Zuo Menggeng was not in the mood to spend time with these people.She looked at her with cold eyes, and reprimanded him mercilessly.

"You know what you know, you don't know what you don't know. The patient is right in front of you, can you find a solution? Neither, but also arrogant, but have a kind heart?"

Several doctors were scolded and could not lift their heads, their old faces were indifferent.

At this time, there is nothing to say, everything depends on the result.

Deng Yuhan didn't care about the quarrel beside him. He had already changed into clean medical uniforms, and even put on a hat and mask before walking to Li Banghua.

At this time, Li Banghua was already nearly fainting in pain, and it was even more difficult to say a complete sentence.

Deng Yuhan sat beside him, stretched out two fingers, and pressed back and forth on his belly.

"Mr. Meng An, does it hurt here?"

"No... not."

"What about here?"

"No... not."

"What about here?"

"Uh... um..."

Deng Yuhan nodded, clarified the symptoms, got up and came to Zuo Menggeng.

"Zhongheng, I'm sure it's appendicitis. An operation must be arranged as soon as possible to remove the diseased part. Otherwise, Mr. Meng An's life will be in danger."

Zuo Menggeng was startled.

"You... can you do appendicitis surgery?"

Deng Yuhan was even more frightened.

"You actually... actually know that the appendix can be removed?"

Only then did Zuo Menggeng realize that he was exposed, and he hurriedly changed the subject.

"Mr. Deng, I mean, do you have the conditions for surgery? You need to know that in case of infection..."

Deng Yuhan pulled a little girl and smiled: "Of course, we have been doing the understanding of bacteria. Through the method you taught, we have obtained high alcohol, and the disinfection effect is good. Don't worry, I have already dissected it. After so much... um... there will be no surprises."

That little girl was Lu An.

"Brother, trust us."

Zuo Menggeng knew that the best way to treat appendicitis is to remove it.

Since it is about Li Banghua's life and death, Deng Yuhan is confident, and there is no reason not to do it.

"Then please."

Looking back, Zuo Menggeng said to Li Rixuan and Li Banghua's old wife: "Mr. Meng An is in critical condition and must arrange an operation immediately. Mr. Deng Yuhan will personally preside over and remove the diseased part of Mr. Meng An. In this way, Only then can Mr. Meng An be saved."

Upon hearing this, Li Banghua's old wife rolled her eyes and fainted on the spot.

cut people?

It reminded her of Caishikou all of a sudden.

Several old doctors were even more excited and rushed up one after another.

"General Zuo, I have never heard of this kind of therapy since ancient times. I'm afraid it's not a Western sorcery that wants to kill my people in China?"

To these stubborn people, Zuo Menggeng was too lazy to entangle with them, and ordered the guards: "Blast them all out."

After thinking about it, I felt that this was an opportunity to promote correct medical knowledge, and I was busy ordering two people among those old doctors.

"Since you think it's incredible, then stay as a representative and observe how the appendicitis operation is done on the spot."

The doctors who had been noisy at first heard that they could stay and watch, and immediately became quiet.

The irrelevant people were cleared away, but the two doctors who remained were trembling all over.

I guess I was thinking, after watching Western magic, I wonder if it will be poisoned?
But seeing that Zuo Menggeng was also there, he was somewhat relieved.

In this era, there is no way to establish a laboratory that fully meets the standards, and only a general cleanup can be done.

Deng Yuhan asked the Li family to clean up a clean room, and then asked Lu An to bring someone in to carefully disinfect it.

"Several, you also have to follow the rules in the operating room. After all, human life is at stake, and chaos is not allowed."

Deng Yuhan's authentic Chinese language made the two doctors feel at ease. With the help of Deng Yuhan's assistant, they put on protective clothing and masks, and followed Zuo Menggeng into the world's first operating room. .

At this time, Li Banghua had already taken off his shirt and was carried to the hospital bed in the middle. Many candles were also lit around the hospital bed.

These candles are all housed in glass hoods so you don't have to worry about the smoke drifting away.And at different angles, carefully arranged glass mirrors are placed.

Zuo Menggeng knew that this was the best lighting measure under the existing conditions.

Deng Yuhan came to the position, and his whole body was wrapped very tightly.First, pick up a glass vial, open it, insert the needle into it, and carefully draw the liquid inside into the needle tube.

Medical needles and needles have long been manufactured.

Zuo Menggeng has been investing heavily in the field of Seiko, encouraging craftsmen to innovate.

Although today's medical needles are not as fine as later generations, they are sufficient for application.

Deng Yuhan carefully injected the liquid from the needle into Li Banghua's body while carefully observing his state.

After about five or six minutes, Li Banghua's breathing became steady, indicating that he had fallen into an unconscious coma.

"This...is this Ma Fei San?"

Seeing this scene, the old doctor was astonished, and was about to rush up to see what happened.

Zuo Menggeng hurriedly grabbed him.

"It's not Ma Fei San, it's an anesthetic."

Of course, this kind of anesthetic is not an anesthetic of later generations, and the current technology cannot make it.

Speaking of the emergence of this anesthetic, it is also a coincidence.

On the way from Europe to China, Deng Yuhan collected many plants.One of the plants found on the east coast of Africa, according to him, can put people and animals into a coma.

After listening to it, Zuo Menggeng asked, "Can I use this kind of thing to help relieve pain?"

After Deng Yuhan was stunned, he was overjoyed and immediately started cultivating this plant.

Today, this plant is only found in Deng Yuhan's courtyard.

And neither he nor Zuo Menggeng knew that this plant was a hypnotic flower native to Tanzania.

It is with the essence of the hypnotic flower extracted that Deng Yuhan obtained the world's first natural anesthetic after repeated development and experimentation.

Without this, it is impossible to perform appendicitis surgery on Li Banghua.

The procedure of the surgery is really nothing to say.

Zuo Menggeng, Deng Yuhan, and their assistants were all ordinary, but the two doctors looked shaky and almost vomited.

After all, to disembowel a person and cut off the intestines is even more terrifying than torture.

Not knowing in advance, it is hard to believe that this is actually saving people.

　The biggest tragedy of Chinese football is that the only people who like football are the fans, and the practitioners, from the Football Association to the players, actually don't like football at all.
