Several soldiers carried a stretcher on which lay a pregnant woman. The mattress beneath her was soaked with blood, and the woman herself was on the verge of death.
The situation was urgent; there was no time to get him to the hospital.
The group quickly cleared out an empty tent, ready to deliver the baby on the spot.
With a doctor treating her, Lin Zhilan didn't pay much attention and took her medical kit to other places.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing here?"
Bai Yang was one of the soldiers who had just carried the pregnant woman. He lifted the curtain and came out, bumping right into Lin Zhilan.
"poplar?"
Lin Zhilan subconsciously looked around, never expecting to be in the same place as Su Lang.
Su Lang was talking to his subordinates when he heard her voice. His eyes flashed, he nodded to his subordinates and gave them a few instructions, then strode over.
"Why did you come over?" As soon as he got close, Su Lang automatically reached out and took the medical kit from his wife's hands.
Before Lin Zhilan could react, Bai Yang, who was standing next to her, got goosebumps all over.
He had never seen the commander so gentle and speak so softly before.
Lin Zhilan smiled and said, "Just like you, I'm here to serve the people."
Su Lang looked around, his brow furrowing slightly. "It might be a bit tough."
"Don't worry, I have plenty of strength and means." Lin Zhilan smiled and made a small joke.
Su Lang's eyes were dark as he gazed at his wife's red lips.
He had rubbed and licked that place repeatedly yesterday, making it redder and more vibrant than ever before.
This is really not a good place or a good time for flirting.
Su Lang escorted his wife to the tent entrance, squeezed her hand, and then left.
Lin Zhilan entered the tent and changed the dressings for the wounded.
A short while later, a woman's sharp scream came from the next tent.
Is it the pregnant woman?
Lin Zhilan got up, walked outside the tent, and asked Qin Qing, who had just come out, "What happened?"
Qin Qing was also furious. "The pregnant woman inside is only eight months pregnant, and her water broke a while ago. She can't give birth naturally and needs an immediate C-section. She refuses to have anesthesia and insists that the doctor is a man, so we need to find a female doctor."
Currently, only male doctors can perform surgery here. If we were to bring a female OB-GYN, it would take an unknown amount of time for her to come and go.
The mother was already bleeding heavily, and there was no time to save her.
Lin Zhilan frowned, lifted the curtain, and went inside.
Anesthesia was required for the surgery, but the pregnant woman refused to cooperate and kept telling the male doctors present to leave.
As soon as someone got close, she clutched her stomach and screamed.
The people inside the tent were at a loss as to where to begin.
Lin Zhilan noticed that she was still bleeding from her lower body, and the bed sheet she was wearing was soaked with blood.
"Shut up!"
Lin Zhilan changed into clean clothes, walked to the bedside, and looked down at her, "Are you out of your mind?!"
"Waaah..." the woman cried, clutching her stomach tightly. "I want a female doctor to perform the surgery on me."
Lin Zhilan took her pulse, listened to the fetal heartbeat with a stethoscope, and then calmly took out silver needles from the medical kit to disinfect them. Her tone was cold, "Only male doctors can perform the surgery now. If you don't cooperate, you and the baby may die. It's up to you."
She spoke directly, without any attempt at tact.
The woman in labor was stunned by her indifference, and shrank back in fear, no longer daring to make a sound.
Despite her still having the energy to cause trouble, her face was frighteningly pale, and her lips had turned bluish-purple due to lack of blood.
Lin Zhilan quickly inserted several needles into her body to stop the bleeding, then looked at her coldly, "The bleeding has stopped, but you and the child are still in danger. Everyone is busy and has no time to waste on you, and the child has no time to waste on you either."
Lin Zhilan's face was calm, as if she would turn around and leave as soon as she heard the word "no".
The other doctors and nurses remained silent, seemingly waiting for her instructions.
The pregnant woman dared not make a fuss anymore and weakly said, "I'll...I'll have the surgery."
As long as they cooperated, the others quickly moved around and set up a makeshift small operating room.
The leading male doctor glanced gratefully at Lin Zhilan. No matter how patiently he explained, the woman in labor simply wouldn't listen.
As a result, Lin Zhilan said a few words that actually frightened the pregnant woman.
"Dr. Lin, those silver needles..."
"Leave them for now, we'll remove them after the surgery." Lin Zhilan deliberately needled acupoints on her head and hands so as not to affect the surgery.
"Okay, thank you, Dr. Lin."
The surgery was performed quickly, and the baby was brought out soon after.
The baby was premature and quite small. Due to lack of oxygen, the baby's body was bluish-purple. We tried patting the baby's feet and bottom, but the baby didn't cry out at all.
Seeing this, Lin Zhilan took the baby from the nurse and cleaned the amniotic fluid and mucus from the baby's mouth and nose again.
Then lay the baby face down on your forearm, supporting the baby's head, neck and chin with one hand, and gently patting the baby's back with the other hand.
The nurses around held their breath, their eyes fixed on the small, motionless body.
A few seconds later, the baby choked on amniotic fluid and let out a weak cry.
"She's crying! She's crying!" the nurse exclaimed in surprise.
Lin Zhilan stopped what she was doing and carefully examined the baby.
There was nothing seriously wrong. Her face remained expressionless, but her eyes had softened slightly.
She wrapped the child in a clean cloth and handed it to the waiting nurse.
"Clean it up, keep it warm, and it's best to take it to the pediatric ward of the hospital for observation for two days."
The mother's abdominal cavity had been stitched up, and the anesthesia had worn off. The nurse went over to give her the good news, "Don't worry, the baby is fine."
The new mother craned her neck to look towards the baby, and her first question was, "Boy or girl?"
Lin Zhilan paused as she pulled out the needle, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
The nurse was also somewhat speechless, "...a boy."
The new mother let out a long breath, as if a huge weight had been lifted from her heart.
Lin Zhilan packed up the silver needles and silently walked out of the tent.
At noon, the soldiers and medical staff ate in two separate groups.
Su Lang walked over with an aluminum lunchbox and sat down next to Lin Zhilan without any ceremony.
Given the current conditions, the food is rather rough.
A big steamed bun and a bowl of corn porridge that scratches your throat.
Su Lang's wasn't much better, except he had two more large steamed buns.
Lin Zhilan finally finished her porridge and secretly slipped the remaining half of a steamed bun to Su Lang.
"You're only eating this little bit?" Su Lang was a little worried about her stamina, so he held the steamed bun to her lips and coaxed her gently, "Have another bite?"
The doctors and nurses nearby all perked up their ears and focused their attention intently on this scene.
There was no way around it; Su Lang was a celebrity in the military region.
Young and capable, he has won first place in the individual competition every year in the military region competition, and has never fallen out of first or second place in the team competition.
Moreover, he is good-looking and reportedly comes from a good family.
