Chapter 483 Extensive third-degree burns(1/2)
Chen Qi slept soundly here, but the battle on the front line 50 kilometers away was in full swing.
Whether it is the ZF army or the rebels, although they have weapons in their hands, the weapons are not that advanced.
In addition, the commanders on both sides have not experienced any formal military academies training.
Therefore, this battle was a full-scale battle, a process of bombarding each other, charging, and escaping.
The whole process was bang bang bang, bang bang bang. There was nothing like Sun Tzu's Art of War, Thirty-six Strategies, or any tactics and strategies, and there was no technical content at all.
To say that Uncle Hei is lazy is really lazy. During the war, he didn't even bother to dig the most basic trenches, probably because he was afraid of getting hurt.
Just use sacks filled with soil and pile them on the ground to create a fortification. Then you shoot me once and I shoot you twice.
This kind of war is completely filled with human lives. No wonder this country has basically wiped out half of the country's population. It is quite tragic.
The rebels have reached their doorstep, and the war situation is unfavorable, making the big guys in Freetown restless.
No, Commander Teodoro of Army Z personally went to the front line to supervise the battle.
This is a young general, only in his 30s this year. When he is in high spirits, he has great potential to guide the country.
It doesn't matter if you graduated from a regular military academy, or whether you have undergone martial arts training in the military. Anyway, he was suddenly promoted directly from the head of the logistics department to the commander of Army Z. Is he awesome or not?
As for the air force, you must have it!
No matter which country's leader he is, he always has to show off.
Even when he goes to the front line, Commander Teodoro Z is still wearing a spotless high-end military uniform, with medals hanging on his chest so shiny that they can be used as reflectors.
Behind him are a large number of followers and media reporters, who want to convey to thousands of households the image of being a wise and capable person who goes to the front line to fight.
Commander Teodoro Z stood on top of the sack from time to time, glanced at the opponent's position with a telescope, issued a few unknown orders to his subordinates, and then flashed the lights.
I don’t know what this man is thinking, dressing himself up like a peacock on the front line, lest the random people don’t notice?
Not surprisingly, the rebels in the distance also saw this "black peacock" through the telescope and knew that it must be a big fish.
A rebel commander shouted excitedly to the gunner:
"Did you see that over there? Bomb me with a big cannon, no, use the latest incendiary bombs you bought, burn these Freetown dogs to death~~~"
Now, when dozens of incendiary bombs rained down from the sky, the ZF army had nowhere to hide.
The smarter soldiers would have run away long ago if something was wrong. Don't expect them to be loyal to their superiors. We all serve as soldiers and eat food, not just for a military salary, but life is the first priority.
But the Army Commander Z and his entourage, who lacked combat experience, were in dire straits. Although they had tried their best to escape, they were still affected by the fire.
When everyone found Commander Teodoro Z, this senior official had become a "roast duck" and miraculously survived.
So all the green light channels were opened, and the convoy rushed towards the Freetown National Hospital as quickly as possible, regardless of whether it would kill someone.
All doctors at the Freetown National Hospital were called to wait in the emergency department. The request from the top management was to rescue the patient at all costs.
When Commander Teodoro Z lay in the ambulance and was sent to the emergency department, everyone gasped.
Because from head to toe, Commander Z has almost no unfinished skin. Even if you call it roast duck, it can only be said that the whole body is charred and medium-rare.
Dean Bagri swallowed his saliva and looked at the director of surgery, Momberto, for help.
Momberto was about to cry. How could he save such a roast duck? Even if he wanted to give him an infusion, he couldn't find a vein for a while. How could he do this?
Piet stood nearby, constantly calculating the burn area with a group of junior doctors, and then carefully reported the report:
"Commander Z has suffered burns covering more than 80% of his body, and most of them are deep 2nd or 3rd degree burns. The damage to internal organs cannot be assessed. However, it seems that he has respiratory distress. It is estimated that the respiratory tract has also been burned.
It won’t be long.”
Burns are generally divided into third and fourth degrees:
The epidermis is damaged once, and the epidermis is intact, with redness and swelling. The wound surface has erythema, but it is relatively dry. The patient feels burning pain. Generally, it will heal on its own without special treatment.
Second degree is divided into two situations, shallow second degree and deep second degree.
Superficial second-degree damage to the superficial layer of the dermis results in large epidermal blisters that will burst with the slightest touch. The patient will feel severe pain and will usually heal within half a month without leaving scars or short-term pigmentation.
Deep second-degree injuries are serious, penetrating deep into the dermis and leaving skin attachments remaining.
At this time, there are often fewer and smaller epidermal blisters, which cannot be touched even if touched a few times. The blisters are light red or red and white, with reticular blood vessels and obvious edema. The patient feels a little pain.
It will take almost a month to heal, and there will be mild scarring and pigmentation, which means scars will remain.
Third-degree injury is the most serious situation. The entire thickness of the skin, including subcutaneous tissue, muscles, and bones, is burned.
In written comments, it is said that the epidermis is not easy to peel off, necrosis or carbonization. The appearance of the wound is waxy white or brown, dry, leathery, and dendritic blood vessel embolism.
In fact, in common people's terms, it is burned into black carbon, which is called "black burnt" in Haidong dialect. It really doesn't make sense, just think of corn and sweet potatoes scorched by fire, or pigs burned to death in a fire.
p>
For deep third-degree burns, the patient feels that the pain will disappear. This is because you have been burned to this point and you have gone into shock. How can you still feel pain?
Just like the current Commander Teodoro Z, you can have a dinner just by sprinkling cumin. You can imagine how difficult it is to save a roast duck.
Director Momberto came to the dean's side and shook his head gently:
"How can we save him if he can't be saved? We have never dealt with a patient with such severe burns."
Dean Ba Qiaoli frowned:
"But the official instruction given to us is that we must save him. Momberto, we can't give up. This is your responsibility."
Just as the two of them were still mumbling and missing precious rescue time, the family members of Commander Teodoro Z and the commander of Sierra Leone, Feguqila, arrived.
Africans are more extroverted. When they saw Teodoro, who looked like a roast duck, his wife and many brothers and sisters went crazy, and their cries almost caused the hospital to collapse.
"Dear, what's wrong with you, Allah~~~"
Teodoro's father, Chief Raodo, roared heartbreakingly:
"Son, nothing can happen to you. I am your father. Son, please wake up~~~"
"Doctor, doctor, please help, what are you waiting for?~~~"
Compared with the crazy excitement of the family members, the commander-in-chief felt very cold when he saw that his Army Commander Z had become like this.
"Dean Bagley, what's the situation of Commander Z? Why haven't you started rescue yet? Are you turning a deaf ear to my order?"
Dean Bagri felt that he was more unjust than Dou E, so he quickly nodded and bowed:
"Sir, Dr. Datong, it's not that we don't want to resuscitate, but there is really no way to resuscitate me. I can't find the vein for infusion. I want to take it orally. Look at this mouth. Where can I get it? The nurse wanted to take a blood pressure test just now. This large area of skin
It fell off and there was no place to tie the cuff."
The Commander-in-Chief is not a fool. He knows in his heart that "Roast Duck" is probably dead, but he also has his own reasons.
It is true that the family behind Commander Teodoro Z is too powerful. It is the most influential chief family with the largest territory in Western Province.
Africa did not originally have so many countries, nor was there any unified country. It was originally composed of tribes or emirates.
Later, in order to divide the sphere of influence, the colonists used rulers to measure and divide Africa directly on the map. Only then were countries formed, with straight borders.
This concept of country is not that strong in the hearts of ordinary people. Basically, everyone still only recognizes tribes and chiefs.
Therefore, any politician who wants to come to power must have a good relationship with the most influential and powerful family in the country. They can give you money and votes, so that you can be in power for a few years, ah, just a few years in power.<
/p>
Figuchira's ability to become the leader of Sierra Leone is inseparable from the full support of Teodoro and many other big families.
So he reciprocated the favor. After taking power, he directly appointed Teodoro, an army logistics director in his 30s, as Army Z Commander.
It turned out well, but he did something wrong with good intentions. If Teodoro dies, the family behind him will definitely hate Fuguchila, thinking that he deliberately let his son die?
Even if he is the commander-in-chief, Figuchila cannot bear this blame, so the only option is to save Teodoro.
Thinking of this, Fuguqi straightened his face, raised his voice, and said seriously:
"Dean Bagri, I order you to use the best medicine at all costs, let the best doctors do their best to rescue you, and ensure that you are saved. If anything happens to Commander Teodoro Z, you, the dean, will
It’s the end.”
Dean Bagri looked at the "roast duck" on the hospital bed. He really felt like a dog was dying, and he was about to faint.
The dean was under pressure, and naturally he had to pass it on to his subordinates. Anyway, they would die together. Thinking of this, Dean Bagri became anxious:
"Director Momberto, have you heard the order from the commander-in-chief? In the name of the director, I now ask your department of surgery to do everything possible to rescue Commander Teodoro Z. If you want money, give money, and if you need medicine, you must rescue him.
Come here or I will fire you!"
Momberto only felt that the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and he wanted to die.
However, the earnest eyes of the family members, the expectant eyes of the commander-in-chief, and the ferocious expression of the dean as if he wanted to eat someone, made him unable to refuse, thinking that he was doomed now.
If this doctor is not good, it is no longer a question of whether he can be the director or dean. It is very likely that he will be shot to death by the irrational Teodoro family. There is no law in people's eyes.
Suddenly, Director Momberto rolled his eyes and remembered that there is another hospital in China, the China-Serbia Friendship Hospital.
Moreover, he also heard from his subordinate Piet that Huaguo doctors had recently obtained a batch of advanced second-hand equipment from the Mayo Clinic in Wuhan, which greatly increased their strength.
Since you can't bear to see it yourself, you can refer it to a doctor to divert trouble to the east and throw this hot potato out.
Thinking of this, Momberto became excited:
"The first student in T&T, it suddenly occurred to me that the Chinese doctors at the China-Serbia Friendship Hospital are stronger than us, and their equipment is more advanced than ours. Moreover, there is also a double director of the International Medical Association among them. Maybe we can seek their advice.
