Eighth year of Chongzhen

Chapter 684 The Current Situation of the Northwest Frontier Town of the Military Doctor System
This anatomy teaching class took place in the First Hospital from noon to the end.It lasted until Youshi before it ended.

Because dissecting specimens is not easy to come by, everyone present consciously prolongs the study time in order to have a deeper observation and research on human body structure.

Whether it was Wu Youxing, who presided over the dissection, or Liu Banshan and other students, they all benefited a lot from it this time.

Liu Banshan, in particular, has a better understanding and ideas about medicine.

This lecture seems to have opened up a brand new world for him, allowing him to have a more intuitive understanding of the corresponding meridians and acupoints in the human body in traditional medical theory.

By observing the shape and color of the internal organs of the specimen, he also understood which other organs would be indirectly damaged after the organ became ill, and it would be more targeted in the subsequent dialectical application of medicine.

According to the regulations established by Zhu Youjian and Wu Youxing after discussion, all the doctors who participated in the anatomy course, as long as the number of times reached two, then from the third time onwards, they had to take turns to do the anatomy by themselves.

After everyone is proficient in this basic medical skill and passed the review by the expert review group, they will be able to obtain the senior attending physician qualification certificate issued by the Ming Dynasty Department of Health.

Afterwards, these senior doctors with certificates will be dispatched to various prefectures of the Ming Dynasty to preside over the medical training organized by the government for local medical practitioners in one place. Those who perform well will become the judges of the newly established first-level prefectural hospitals. .

Judging from the current quantity and quality of medical practitioners, hospitals can only temporarily be opened at the prefectural level where the population is more concentrated, and prefectural and county-level hospitals will not be able to be built for at least ten years.

Even the establishment of a provincial first-level hospital will take about five years, and it is only a hospital with a basic level of surgery. It can only cut the cecum and appendix, and suture large traumatic wounds.

The first dozen doctors who followed Wu Youxing to the south have now been assigned to the army. While they are responsible for training the existing army doctors to deal with wounded soldiers in wartime and how to take care of the wounded, they will also stay as military doctors. In the army, his family stayed in the capital for the time being, and decided whether to stay or send him over when the conditions in the border town improved.

This model can be copied for future generations.

Whether it is the treatment of military doctors or family members, there is a basis for reference, and there is no need for Zhu Youjian to create it himself.

Six of these dozens of doctors were sent to General Zhenxi, General Cao Wenzhao of Qinghai, General Zhengxi, General Cao Bianjiao of Lintao, General Zhenglu and General Luo Shifang of Gansu.

Cao Bianjiao and Luo Shifang each have [-] cavalry under their command, and they are all elite troops who have been tested by the flames of war and have strong combat effectiveness.

According to the military situation sent by the Northwest, after Luo Shifang and Cao Bianjiao took turns leading the attack, the former bandit general Li Zicheng had been driven to the direction of the four towns of Anxi consciously by them, and Cao and Luo took turns leading the attack. The army oppressed and forced the remnants of more than a thousand riders to continue westward.

Cao Wenzhao led his troops along this ancient Silk Road, followed behind Cao and Luo, and built simple cities every hundred miles in places suitable for reclamation, and then moved the original frontier soldiers and their families from the rear. Use this move to provide logistical support for the cavalry ahead.

Under the harsh natural conditions in the Northwest, the work of this kind of city-building immigration progressed extremely slowly.

For more than a year, Cao Wenzhao has only led his troops westward for more than [-] miles, built five large and small cities, relocated more than [-] people, and reclaimed tens of thousands of acres of wasteland.

In view of this situation, Zhu Youjian has asked the Ministry of War and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies to order Cao Wenzhao's department to suspend the westward movement, and wait for the time to act after digesting the existing achievements.

Zhu Youjian has asked Cao Wenzhao not to build the city according to the way of big cities and high walls in the mainland when building the city, but to build villages around the wasteland he wants, and the walls in the village are for the purpose of preventing wild animals and wind and sand. too high.

In the future when the age of firearms is coming, no matter how high the city wall is, it cannot stop the bombardment of artillery fire, so there is no need to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to build this kind of building that is about to be eliminated.

Cao Bianjiao and Luo Fang's troops, after expelling Li Zicheng's troops and the horse bandits around the reclamation area, had to go back to recuperate and rest. After recharging their energy, they divided their troops into two teams according to the situation, and took turns heading west with supplies. mopping up.

This is the current movement and arrangement of the Ming army in the northwest.

In the north, General Zhenbei and Ma Xianglin, the naturalized general, will have three surgeons who have studied surgery stationed there, and their status will also be transferred to military doctors.

In February of the 12th year of Chongzhen, after returning home for half a year to recuperate, except for the three armies in the Northwest who had not had a long vacation, the rest of the Ming Dynasty's official army had returned to their respective headquarters.

Ma Xianglin's [-] cavalry and [-] infantry began rigorous training immediately after gathering. After more than a month, the morale of the soldiers has risen rapidly. The whole army marched northward.

It would not be very difficult to take back Huacheng. The Mongolian tribes that had lost their vigor and courage mostly lost their lives in the battle to destroy the Qing Dynasty. Those who fled back had neither the strength nor the courage to fight against the large Ming army.

It was also mentioned in the general order issued by the imperial court to Ma Xianglin that he was required to accept the surrender of various Mongolian tribes, and then, according to the specific situation, disperse the stronger tribes and move them back to the original side wall to graze and survive.

The Ming Dynasty still had a great demand for large livestock, meat and fur, and the increase in demand would not decrease for at least 200 years.

The Mongolian compatriots have an unparalleled instinct for herding. Put down the saber and long bow, who is not a master of herding?
As long as Daming can provide these Mongolian compatriots with the same treatment as the Han people, or even slightly worse, as long as they feel that life is getting better and better, they will naturally give up sabers, bows and arrows.

This need is actually easy to satisfy.

Why use your own life to exchange things that can be exchanged without robbery?

Horses, cattle, sheep, rolling felt, medicinal materials, milk, etc., these things that Mongolians have in every household, as long as they are taken out, they can be exchanged for grain, iron pot, white wine, salt, seasoning, sugar, soup, silk, cloth and so on. With such a shortcut in front of us, who would take the risk?

Of course, there are also many Mongolian tribes who have blood feuds with Ming Dynasty. They are unwilling to give up the ability to plunder by force. In their eyes, Ming people or Han people are two-legged sheep, and they should prostrate at their feet as cows, horses, slaves and slaves. servant.

They also fantasized about restoring the supreme glory of the Golden Family back then, and they also hoped that another figure like Genghis Khan would appear in the tribe and lead them to sweep the world again.

For this kind of undead people, sending them to see Temujin is the only countermeasure.
