Chapter 902 Beat chicken blood

Seeing Asiya's bewildered expression, Sokov guessed that it must be the first time she had heard such a statement, so he put his arms around her shoulders, walked out, and said in his mouth: "Asiya Ya, you go back and tell the military doctor Pavlov about this, and let the comrades of the deputy commander of the front army use the method to relieve the pain of the wounded who are undergoing surgery."

   Before Assia could answer, Sokov heard Golikov ask from behind: "Comrade Assia, do you have enough medical staff there?"

"Report to Comrade General," Assia stopped, turned to look at Golikov, and replied respectfully: "After the medical team of the infantry brigade and the field hospital of the Guards Division were merged, our military doctors and health workers have There are more than 70 people, although the manpower is a bit tight, but thanks to the assistance of the soldiers who stayed in the tunnel, they can barely cope."

"Thousands of wounded have been added at once, do you have enough places to accommodate them?" Golikov glanced at Sokov, and then continued: "You know, the temperature outside is low, if the wounded stay in the ice and snow I am afraid that their lives will be endangered."

   "Comrade General, please rest assured about this." Assia smiled and replied politely: "After the thousands of officers and soldiers stationed in the tunnel left, there is enough space to accommodate the wounded."

  Golikov nodded, and said to Asiya: "Comrade Asiya, please go back and tell the captain of the health team that the medicines you need will be delivered from the other side as soon as possible."

Just as Asya saluted and turned to leave, Golikov asked again unexpectedly: "There is one more thing, I find it very strange, why are you a health team, but a division field hospital?" ?”

  Asiya thought that Golikov was asking herself, turned around and saw that Golikov was staring at Sokov and asked, so she didn't speak, but stood quietly aside.

   "Comrade Deputy Commander of the Front Army," Ivanov said without waiting for Sokov to speak: "I know the reason for this matter, please allow me to report to you."

   "Speak up, Comrade Colonel."

"It's like this. Before re-entering Stalingrad, our division just completed the repair work." Ivanov explained to Golikov: "But the superiors only added soldiers and officers to us, but did not replenish them." Military doctors and health workers lost in the battle. In name, the field hospital system is still there, but there are only a dozen military doctors and health workers. Therefore, when it was merged with the infantry brigade, after discussion with the division commander, it was changed to a health team. "

"So that's how it is." After listening to Ivanov's explanation, Golikov nodded slightly, turned to Sokov and said, "Colonel Sokov, wait until we win this battle and wipe out Paulus's army." Commanding army, you are going to rebuild the division field hospital. Do you understand?"

"Understood, Comrade Deputy Commander of the Front Army." Even if Golikov didn't mention the matter, after the Stalingrad defense battle ended, Sokov planned to ask Chuikov for a group of medical staff to re-establish the divisional field hospital. Get up: "As soon as the battle is over, we will restore the field hospital system as soon as possible."

   What Sokov and Golikov said were clearly heard by Asiya who was standing aside. Sokov turned back and said to Assia: "Assia, after you go back, you can tell the good news to Military Doctor Pavlov. As for the post of director of the rebuilt division field hospital, I will recommend him to the superior , I hope he will perform well during this time."

   "Don't worry," Assia smiled sweetly at Sokov, "I will tell Military Doctor Pavlov the good news."

  After returning to the health team, Assia grabbed a passing health worker and asked him, "Did you see where Military Doctor Pavlov is?"

   "Asiya, he is doing surgery in the operating room, you can go there to find him."

   After thanking the other party, Asiya walked through the stretchers on the ground and came to the operating room familiarly. When she came to the door, she happened to see two stretcher bearers carrying a wounded person out, so she stepped aside to let the stretcher pass.

  She opened the curtain, walked into the operating room, and saw Pavlov sitting by the wall with a tired face, holding a bottle of glucose water in his hand, taking a sip from time to time. Seeing Asiya coming in from the outside, he raised his eyes and asked, "Asiya, how are you doing? When will the teacher replenish the medicine we need?"

"Military doctor comrade," Asya came to Pavlov's side and knelt down, and said to him happily: "When I just went to the division headquarters, General Golikov, the deputy commander of the front army, was also there. He learned that After we ran out of medicines, we said that we would contact the Front Army Command on the Left Bank and send us a batch as soon as possible.”

Hearing what Assia said, Pavlov smiled wryly and said, "Assia, there are at least one or two hundred wounded outside waiting for surgery. There is no other medicine, so we can delay it for a while. But if there is no anesthetic , Many wounded may not be able to bear the pain during the operation."

   "I know," Assia interjected, "I saw with my own eyes that several wounded fainted from the pain during the operation."

Pavlov raised his head and took a sip of water, and said with a wry smile: "When you were going to the division headquarters, a wounded patient died of pain during the operation because there was no anesthetic. If there is no anesthetic, we will I think some of the wounded will die during the operation."

Hearing what Pavlov said, Assia immediately remembered the folk prescription Golikov said, and asked tentatively: "Comrade military doctor, I want to ask you, if you use coffee to give the wounded intestines, can it be effective?" Pain relief?"

  Pavlov's eyes widened in surprise. He grabbed Assia's arm and asked excitedly, "Assia, how do you know that this method can relieve pain?"

"I heard from General Golikov." Assia carefully broke her arm out of Pavlov's hand, and explained: "He said that during World War I, the German army lacked anesthetics, and their Military doctors use this method to relieve the pain of the wounded and then perform surgery."

   "General Golikov is right. This method can indeed relieve pain." Pavlov nodded and said, "However, if the operation is not done properly, it may cause intestinal perforation of the wounded and endanger life."

   When Asiya confirmed that coffee infusion can indeed relieve pain, she was secretly happy. She didn't expect the method General Golikov said to be really effective. But after hearing what Pavlov said later, her heart sank again. In order to relieve the pain, she endangered the lives of the wounded, which made her hesitate: "Comrade military doctor, then we can use this method to treat the wounded." Pain relief?"

"In the absence of anesthesia, we can only try this method. As for whether it will endanger life, we will not consider these issues for the time being. We will save people first and then treat the disease. As long as we save people, we will have plenty of solutions in the future." Let him recover." Pavlov said, and took another big sip of water: "Assia, I will take a rest, and then I will get up and continue the operation."

   "By the way, comrade military doctor, I have another piece of good news for you."

   "What news." Pavlov asked weakly.

"After this battle is over, the division will resume the organizational system of the division's field hospital." Assia smiled and said to Pavlov: "Misha said that he intends to let you be the first director after the reconstruction. "

   After saying this, Pavlov, who was sitting next to him, was still drinking glucose water listlessly, as if he didn't listen carefully. Assia felt a little bored and was about to get up and continue working. Who would have thought that as soon as she stood up, she heard a "pop", and the glucose water bottle in Pavlov's hand fell to the ground. He stood up abruptly, pointed at Assia, his fingers trembling, and his mouth moved. Zhang Yihe couldn't say a word.

   "Assia!" Fortunately, a female hygienist during the operation, De Pavlov, asked what was in his heart: "Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course it's true." Assia nodded to the female hygienist, and said with certainty: "I don't think Misha will be on this kind of thing, are you kidding me? By the way, he asked me to come back and tell the good news , tell the military doctor Pavlov personally."

   After getting confirmation from Assia, Pavlov, who was a little depressed, suddenly regained his energy as if he had been injected with chicken blood. He turned to the woman who spoke, "How long have I been resting?"

The female hygienist quickly glanced at an alarm clock on the table not far away, and replied: "Comrade military doctor, you have rested for three minutes. You have performed more than a dozen operations in a row, and you have to rest for at least a quarter of an hour before you can barely Physical recovery."

"No, I think I can still hold on." Pavlov, who looked energetic, waved his hand at the other party, and said in an orderly tone: "Let the stretcher bearers outside bring in new wounded, we can't make the wounded wait too long. For a long time, try to complete all the operations before tomorrow morning."

  Although Asiya knew that there was more than one place for surgery, there were too many wounded outside. Even if the military doctors and military doctors worked overtime, they couldn't finish it in a short time. She hurriedly asked Pavlov: "Comrade military doctor, I have nothing to do now, please allow me to operate on the wounded."

"This is really great, Comrade Assia." Seeing Assia's willingness to help, Pavlov felt very relieved. He pointed to the side with his hand and said, "The operating room next door is still empty. You can find two An assistant, let's perform the operation there."

  The new wounded was brought in quickly, and the female health worker asked Pavlov: "Comrade military doctor, this wounded is seriously injured. If there is no anesthetic, I'm worried that he won't be able to get off the operating table."

Pavlov thought for a while, and then said to the female health worker: "You should have heard what Asiya said just now, right? Just use coffee to fill the intestines to relieve the pain of the wounded." As he said, he stood up with his hands The stretcher bearer next to him pointed, "The two of you help turn the wounded man over so that the hygienist can pour him coffee."

  When the stretcher bearers heard Pavlov's somewhat inexplicable order, their faces showed a dazed expression, but they followed the other party's order to the letter, and carefully turned the wounded over.

  ...

  In order to ensure that the medicines on the other side could be delivered as soon as possible, Golikov personally called Yeremenko and told him that Sokov urgently needed medicines to treat the wounded. As soon as Yelymenko put down the phone, he ordered the Minister of Logistics to transfer a truckful of medicines from the warehouse and immediately send a truck to Mamayev Gang.

  Sokov originally thought that even if Golikov personally took action, he would have to wait a day or two before receiving the supplementary medicine from his superiors. Unexpectedly, less than two hours after the phone call, the observation post outside reported that a truck coming from the opposite bank was coming towards Mamayev Post.

  Sokov guessed that the medicines might have arrived, but just to be on the safe side, he still ordered the observation post: "You send two people to meet them, find out what is in the car, and report to me in time."

"Comrade Commander," Sidolin waited for Sokov to put down the phone, and said to him, "I guess the medicine has been delivered. Can you see if Major Tenev waits outside with someone? If it is medicine, you can send it as soon as possible." Send it to the health team."

"Okay." Considering that if the health team cannot get the medicine in time, many wounded may die, Sokov agreed to Sidolin's proposal: "Let Major Tenev take a company and wait outside for delivery. As soon as the truck of medicine arrives, it is sent to the health team immediately."

"Comrade Commander," Sokov had just arranged for Tenev to take the guard company out to receive the medicines, when Political Commissar Anisimov hurried in from the outside and said excitedly, "I just came back from the health team. What do you think I saw?"

  Sokov didn't know what he saw, so he asked casually, "What did you see?"

"I just went to the military doctor Pavlov for an operation," Anisimov said hastily, "I heard from the hygienist that he has performed more than 30 operations today. Usually, military doctors do this in succession." He was so tired that he couldn’t move because of the many surgeries. But I saw Dr. Pavlov, like an indefatigable machine, kept performing surgeries on wounded one after another, and even the hygienist asked him to take a rest , he refused."

After hearing what Anisimov said, Golikov smiled and said to Sokov: "Colonel Sokov, I really didn't expect that the good news you asked Comrade Assia to bring back could make you It is not easy for the military doctor to work so hard."

  Sokov guessed that it must be his proposal to let Pavlov be the director of the field hospital, which made the other party excited like chicken blood. However, out of love for him, Sokov felt that some things should be done in moderation. After all, people are not machines. If Pavlov was really exhausted, the medical level of the health team would drop a long way. So he said to Anisimov: "Comrade Commissar, please go to the health team again. Tell Pavlov to not overwork. If he is exhausted, no one will operate on the wounded." gone."

"You are right, Comrade Commander. Military doctor Pavlov is indeed working too hard. This is not good, and he will suffer from exhaustion." Anisimov said bluntly: "I will go and convey your words to him .”
