Chapter 274 Establishing a Nursing System

After comforting Sun Yunxuan, Wu Changqing also began to write and write down a decree, "Prepare the Battlefield Medical Center".

The current army has only a small number of military doctors, and they usually manage small-scale battles, and they are still reluctantly busy. Once there is a large-scale decisive battle, those military doctors will be helpless.

A large number of wounded soldiers died or became disabled because they did not receive timely treatment. If it can be treated in time, the cure rate can at least increase by one or two percent.

And there is no way to solve this kind of problem, because doctors are a highly skilled profession, not all the streets.

It is good to be able to bring some military doctors along with the army, and some poorer troops have no military doctors. Once injured, you can only deal with it simply by yourself.

Soldiers do not have professional skills and can only rely on experience. This simple treatment is often not good.

Wu Changqing always wanted to solve this problem, but he couldn't conjure some doctors out of thin air.

So, he thought of field nurses.

This was just when I was looking for something to do for Sun Yunxuan, I suddenly thought of it.

The advantage of equipping doctors with nurses is that nurses can do some simple nursing work, which frees the doctor and allows the doctor to spend all his time on high-tech work such as taking arrows and sewing wounds.

In this way, the number of soldiers that a doctor can rescue can be multiplied several times, or even a dozen times.

In the beginning, Wu Changqing wanted to recruit a group of men to be nurses. Because of the atmosphere of this era, it is difficult for others to understand recruiting women to the military camp, and 80% will think that it is a camp prostitute.

This is a very heavy public opinion pressure for women who are nurses, and may not be recruited because of this.

However, nowadays Nanjing is employing people in all aspects, and the labor force is not very abundant.

Recruiting precious male labor to be nurses is somewhat wasteful. It is very important to treat wounded soldiers, and it is also very important to develop people's livelihood.

Compared with the precious male labor force, there are a large number of female labor force in the city that are not used and are wasting all the time.

At most, they can only do some needlework at home, earning only a handful of money, which is very uneconomical.

Recruit them to make the most rational use of the labor force.

Moreover, compared with men with thick hands and feet, women are more delicate and more meticulous in caring for wounded soldiers, and can do better.

Moreover, the female nurse also has a magical effect, which can increase the survival desire of wounded soldiers, which has a kind of placebo effect.

Men, when they are taken care of by a woman, they will be more attached to the world.

If it is a beautiful woman, this comforting effect is doubled.

After comprehensive consideration, Wu Changqing decided to recruit women.

Although recruiting is a bit troublesome, as long as you start this job, it will be easy to do. As long as everyone accepts this profession and there is no prejudice, it will be much easier to recruit people in the future.

In the decree, Wu Changqing emphasized that nurses are not prostitutes. Any soldier who dares to violate nurses will be punished the most severely.

The minimum punishment is to throw it into the death squad, and if the situation is relatively bad, the head will be beheaded directly.

Wu Changqing also instructed Wei Ziwen to explain the profession of nurse in detail in the People's Daily, so that the common people could understand this profession and dispel misunderstandings.

At the same time, the people's newspapers should sing praises to nurses, guide public opinion, and raise them to the height of patriotism.

Finally, higher salaries were offered to nurses to attract women who were forced by life to apply.

This combination of punches should be able to achieve some results more or less.

The next day, the new policy was promulgated, which really caused a lot of controversy.

Not to mention the common people, even some officials in the government feel that this is not good. Letting women into the army is too easy for people to misunderstand. It is not easy to explain a few words and others will believe it.

Moreover, it is now stipulated that soldiers are not allowed to violate female nurses, but in some cases of low morale, can those soldiers still be able to control it?

Or, will some officers privately allow soldiers to vent on female nurses?

Or, can some officers take the lead and control their lower body?

In short, this decree will bring a lot of trouble and criticism to the barracks, and in the eyes of some people, it will do more harm than good.

Soldiers are injured and die, which is normal in some people's eyes, because the military has been like this since ancient times. Soldiers die when they die, that's their life.

Of course, there are also some more open-minded officials who support Wu Changqing's decree. When saving lives, one should not be too concerned about the difference between men and women.

When women are sick, don't they also have skin-to-skin contact with male doctors?

However, regardless of their support or opinions, the decree was carried forward.

Some things Wu Changqing will leave to his subordinates to discuss and formulate policies. And some things, Wu Changqing will also speak.

Officials who have been working under Wu Changqing for a long time know that, as long as Wu Changqing decides in one word, don't think too much, and it's right to execute it properly.

If you have to pretend to be a loyal minister and persuade Wu Changqing with some good advice, basically there is no good end.

Wu Changqing is not Chongzhen, he is a very assertive, and can even be said to be headstrong.

In the face of such a powerful Shangguan, smart people will be cowardly.

In the private sector, the decree also caused controversy.

Those who do not know the suffering of the common people read

The scholar, of course, did not hesitate to attack, saying that Wu Changqing was blatantly equipping the army with prostitutes, which would corrode the army's will to fight.

Some people really think so. Such people can only say that they are stupid and short-sighted.

And some people just want to show their arrogance and like to criticize some things from the height of morality, in order to attract attention.

This kind of person is relatively bad. Of course, what's even worse is that there are some people with ulterior motives who take this opportunity to slander Wu Changqing, want to smear Wu Changqing's reputation, and cause everyone's dissatisfaction with Wu Changqing.

Nanjing is so big, it's a mixed bag, and everyone has it.

However, none of them made any big waves.

Wu Changqing's opponents were always the Qing court and Nanming, or the entire landlord class, or the entire scholar class, or the entire merchant class.

A single person jumped out and jumped, and Wu Changqing had no interest in it.

Contrary to the scholar's point of view, many poor people are very supportive of this decree.

Of course, they also knew that women would be criticized for being a nurse, but they couldn't stand the high monthly salary. They were all as high as ordinary soldiers, and there was no danger, so they hid in the back.

More importantly, the people believed in Wu Changqing.

Since Wu Changqing gave a guarantee that the nurses were not prostitutes and would guarantee their innocence, many people were still a little moved.
