The student assessment had just ended, and the Jinling Martial Arts Lecture Hall was filled with people. Those who passed cheered and those who failed were dejected. Then the students who passed the program were admitted to the dormitory and became familiar with the campus.
After collecting personal daily necessities, school uniforms, shoes and socks, bedding and pillows, the Jinling Martial Arts Hall was a bustling scene. Students from all over the world gathered together and filled the dormitory and every corner of the martial arts hall with laughter and laughter.
Compared to the hustle and bustle of the campus, the area around the principal's office was relatively quiet. The Imperial Guards held guns and knives, watching the surroundings vigilantly, watching for any disturbance.
In the principal's room, Zhao Hong was giving instructions to a group of medical and nursing instructors.
He doesn't need to be so careful about the cavalry department, infantry department, sailor department, including the baggage department, and even the artillery department. Because there are traces to follow, or it has been explained clearly, there is a dedicated person responsible for it, and they will practice it.
Only in this medical department, especially the surgical operations that are closely related to the battlefield, he must do it himself.
The fundamental thing he taught was surgical disinfection. This concept was hundreds of years ahead of the times. Regardless of whether the instructors and students understood it or not, he would forcefully distribute it and popularize it in the teaching of martial arts halls.
Due to the limitations of the times, the Southern Song Dynasty did not have modern awareness of disinfection in medicine. But this is related to the lives of thousands of soldiers and is also closely related to the situation of the war.
"The establishment of the medical department is mainly for preparations for future wars. If there is a field hospital near the battlefield, emergency life-saving operations and early surgical treatment can be carried out, early treatment of the wounded can be carried out to avoid infection, and the wounded and lightly injured can be ensured to return to the team after injury, and Rescue the seriously injured immediately."
Zhao Hong looked at the instructors in the medical department, these elite doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau and the private sector, with blazing eyes.
"Everyone remember, unless the seriously injured are difficult to treat, the average wounded will not be in danger as long as the surgical disinfection is sufficient. Therefore, 75% medical alcohol must be provided. Surgical disinfection must be strictly implemented."
At this time, Zhao Hong couldn't help but think of the glassware, bottles and jars of later generations. Whether it is medical experiments, alcohol distillation, or alcohol storage, everything seems to be perfect.
Not to mention, exquisite glassware and products were also of great benefit to the development of the economy of the Song Dynasty.
It seems that the creation of glass must be put on the agenda, perhaps included in the first five-year plan as soon as possible.
"Everyone, I have written down some basic rules and regulations. Please take a look and formulate the rules as soon as possible and compile them into teaching materials for future teaching use."
The copied papers were handed out one after another, and Zhao Hong did not forget to continue to give instructions.
"Actually, there is nothing complicated. Before operating on the wounded, you must wash your hands with 75% alcohol. Medical officers must have special surgical clothes, hats, and masks. All surgical equipment must be disinfected. This is to avoid A necessary step for external bacteria to contaminate the casualty’s wound.”
Compared with ancient times, the reason why modern surgery can save the wounded to a large extent is because of disinfection and avoidance of contamination. It sounds simple, but 800 years ago, it had real limitations.
"Your Majesty, why 75% alcohol?"
An instructor asked curiously.
At this time, they are students and the emperor is the instructor.
"Good question. I, the principal, have done experiments. If the concentration is too high, it will harden the cortex, making it difficult for the alcohol to penetrate into the skin and sterilize. The concentration is too low and the sterilization effect is not good. You can do the experiment yourself. 75% Alcohol has a better sterilizing effect!”
Zhao Hong said patiently and followed the instructions.
"The Martial Arts Hall will send people to contact the Manufacturing Department or the General Office and ask them to provide a large amount of alcohol. You have to find a way to refine and filter the alcohol into about 75% alcohol. The alcohol must be sealed to avoid evaporation and affect the concentration. "
The instructors nodded repeatedly and did not dare to refute.
The emperor was full of new words, but they all basically understood them. The emperor's extensive knowledge of strange arts and tricks seems to have led them to find the reason for the high casualty rate. As for whether 75% alcohol is the most effective, even if the emperor has already done the experiment, they still need to test it to find out the authenticity, change it if it is found, and encourage it if it is not.
As for refining it to 75% alcohol, it’s not complicated. Anyway, the Song Dynasty had plenty of wine, so they didn’t worry about the raw materials, and they also had plenty of time to refine it.
"I have stated in this draft that the bandage used to cover the wound must be boiled in boiling water, dried and placed properly. The environment of the operation is also very important. Not only must it be clean, but also quicklime and alcohol spray must be used around it. Disinfect to avoid infection as much as possible.”
Zhao Hong felt a little regretful. His understanding of later generations of medicine was limited to this. If he could understand more, he might be able to save more people on the battlefield and in life.
"That's it for today. Let's all leave. If you have any questions, let's talk about it later."
Feeling that it was about the same, Zhao Hong ended the topic.
"Your Majesty, Lin'an City Express reported that Duke Zhenzhen and Xuan Xianggong went to Qingyuan Mansion three days ago. I hope they can catch up with the opening ceremony of the Song Dynasty Naval Academy."
Wei Liaoweng came in and reported to Zhao Hong.
"Lin'an City, there is nothing unusual, right?"
He shook hands with Yang Guizhi and made peace. There should be no fire in the backyard.
"Your Majesty, everything is calm in Lin'an City. Now that Shi Dang has been killed and imprisoned, the Imperial Army has been mobilized, Lin'an City is under the control of the imperial court, and everything will be fine."
Wei Liaoweng was quite confident.
Shi Miyuan is dead, his party members are gone, and the people of the country are excited. Even the Queen Mother Yang Guizhi can hardly make waves.
Zhao Hong nodded silently, feeling much more at ease.
He is the king of a country, upright and upright. What's more, the king is the king, and the minister is the minister after all. Shi Miyuan was executed. Who would feel uncomfortable for a treacherous official?
His throne as the new emperor should be fairly secure.
Medical departments, field hospitals, medical officers, nurses...
Zhao Hong glanced at the papers on the table, his heart moved, and he said to Wei Liaoweng:
"Mr. Wei, what do you think about enrolling all female students in our school into the medical department?"
"Medical Department?"
Wei Liaoweng couldn't help but be startled.
What does the emperor's move mean?
"Soldiers are fighting fiercely on the battlefield, and the wounded are inevitable. If they can be treated as soon as possible, the casualties will be greatly reduced. Therefore, the number of medical officers must be expanded. Moreover, it is too inconvenient and too cruel for women to go to the battlefield."
Compared to fighting to the death on the battlefield, it is more suitable for a woman to be a medical officer.
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Wei Liaoweng understood and instantly smiled.
From this point of view, my daughter has no chance to go to the battlefield. He no longer has to worry about his daughter.
"For this matter, we have to say hello to the female students in advance."
Zhao Hong stood up and walked out of the room with Wei Liaoweng.
"Your Majesty, where are we going?"
"Where else to go, of course, to meet the female students and have a heart-to-heart relationship with them!"
In any case, the consent of these female students must be obtained before going to the medical department. This is also a tribute to these brave and independent new women.
"Your Majesty, is this necessary? Just ask someone to tell them!"
Wei Liaoweng was quite dissatisfied with Zhao Hong's unnecessary move.
"Vice Principal Wei, please call me Principal."
Zhao Hong reminded Wei Liaoweng, pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked:
"Vice President Wei, you are a great scholar of Neo-Confucianism and are familiar with the teachings of Confucius and Mencius. Let me ask you, did the sages Confucius and Mencius ever say "Three Cardinal Guidelines and Five Constant Virtues" and "Three Obediences and Four Virtues"?"
Later generations only knew how to criticize Confucianism, but many people did not even know what "Confucianism" was. The Tao of Confucius and Mencius is "ancient Confucianism", and its core is the word "benevolence". Dong Zhongshu and Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism are "New Confucianism" and "fake Confucianism", which emphasize "Three Cardinal Guidelines and Five Constant Virtues" and "Three Obediences and Four Virtues".
If nothing else, just the inhumane "foot binding" of small feet shows that "New Confucianism" has a lot of dregs.
Preserve heaven's principles and destroy human desires. Human beings are born with desires, widows cannot remarry, and if the father wants the son to die, the son has to die. What kind of bullshit logic is that?
The Mongolian iron hooves are about to step into our door, and we are still talking about empty talk all day long. Does it have any practical significance?
Wei Liaoweng was stunned for a moment and was speechless.
"Vice Principal Wei, you must respect women. You must know that every man is born of a woman. Every woman who can apply for the Jinling Martial Arts Hall today deserves our respect."
Zhao Hong stood up, walked down, and patted Wei Liaoweng on the shoulder, which was also one of his habitual actions.
"Let's go. Take a look at the female students, and also take a look at your baby daughter. One day you will find that she is your pride."
In the late Southern Song Dynasty, the poison of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism has become increasingly serious. If it is not suppressed, the poison may really be endless.
Life is full of vegetation and autumn. A confident and tolerant big country should have his mind. And those dross must be ruthlessly eliminated.
