Maybe you rarely know Dr. Wang Bin now? Less information can be found now. The reason why I want to tell the story of Dr. Wang Bin is that:
One is that he joined the Red Army after being captured from the Kuomintang army; the other is that he saved Hu Yaobang in Zunyi and the life of Zhou Enlai in Maoergai during the Long March of the Central Red Army; and the third is the principal of the Red Army Guard School personally appointed by Chairman Mao.
Dr. Wang Bin
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="5" ></h1>
Dr. Wang Bin was born in 1909 in Xingwen, Sichuan.
When he was young, he went to Chengdu to study; in 1932, he graduated from Chengdu Medical College.
In 1933, he went to Jinggangshan to join the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, and served as the director of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army Health School (the predecessor of China Medical University) and a surgeon in the affiliated hospital.
Hu Yaobang recalled that Dr. Wang Bin was a Kuomintang major who was captured by the Red Army and was given preferential treatment to win over the Surgeon of the Red Army.

He joined the Communist Party of China in 1935.
Dr. Wang Bin has served as a doctor in the Hospital of the First Red Army, the director and principal of the Central Military Commission Health School, and the principal of the Yan'an Health School in northern Shaanxi.
During the agrarian revolution, Dr. Wang Bin participated in the fourth and fifth anti-"encirclement and suppression" struggles and the 25,000-mile Long March. During the war years, Dr. Wang Bin saved a large number of Red Army soldiers and ensured the health of the leaders of the Central Military Commission.
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, he was the medical director of the Ministry of Health of the Eighteenth Group Army, the deputy director of the Health Department of the Central Military Commission and the president of China Medical University. Dr. Wang Bin has made contributions to the improvement of medical care and the rescue of the troops on the battlefield. During his tenure as president of China Medical University, he created an effective method of managing higher medical schools, trained a large number of medical talents, and was one of the founders of the education of the regular hospital college of our army.
In September 1940, in Yan'an, at the suggestion of Chairman Mao, the Red Army Health School was officially renamed China Medical University. In the same year, the president of China Medical University, who personally composed lyrics and composed music by Lu Xun Art Institute in Yan'an, composed the song of China Medical University, with the lyrics as follows:
"Standing at the forefront of health work, we are the technical workers of new medicine, and we are the pioneers of new China's rescue. In the course of arduous struggle, we should learn from the tense, simple, benevolent, and cautious style of work, create politically firm, technically excellent cadres, and serve the revolution and the masses. We are the healers of society, making the injured motherland healthy and new. The responsibility of the students to study hard and bravely move forward to build a new medicine falls on our shoulders. ”
Chinese Medical University School Song
In 1941, the fourteenth military doctor of the Red Army Health School, which was about to graduate, became the first graduate of China Medical University after the school was renamed; when he was about to graduate, wang Bin, on behalf of the students' wishes, called Chairman Mao and asked Chairman Mao to write an inscription for the graduates of the fourteenth phase of military doctors in a busy schedule, and Chairman Mao agreed.
Soon, Chairman Mao sent staff to send an inscription; only to see thirteen characters written on a white piece of paper with a brush: "Saving lives and helping the injured, practicing revolutionary humanitarianism," which became the motto of medical workers throughout the country.

During the Liberation War, Dr. Wang Bin participated in the Liaoshen Campaign with the Fourth Field Army, and made great achievements in the Liaoshen Campaign, and was commended by the leaders of the Central Military Commission.
In 1950, Dr. Wang Bin was appointed Minister of Health and Secretary of the Party Group of the Northeast People's Government, and President of China Medical University.
During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, Dr. Wang Bin undertook the task of treating the wounded on the front line, organized 300 hospitals and 24 health ambulance trains along the railway line, and brilliantly completed the rescue treatment and transfer tasks of a large number of wounded and sick.
Later, Dr. Wang Bin was transferred to the post of Vice Minister of Health of the Central People's Government, Adviser to the Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China, and member of the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.
On June 13, 1992, Dr. Wang Bin died of illness at the age of 84.
There were two opposite evaluations of Dr. Wang Bin, and Hu Yaobang, who had been treated by Dr. Wang Bin, believed that Wang Bin was the best surgeon in the Red Army.
Yang Shangkun, who was then the political commissar of the Red Third Army, did not agree with Hu Yaobang's high evaluation of Dr. Wang Bin; he believed that Wang Bin was responsible for Wang Jiaxiang's treatment problems, and Wang Jiaxiang had to sit on a stretcher during the entire Long March due to his injuries; Wang Bin became the head of the Red Army's health department after the end of the Long March.

On April 27, 1933, the General Political Department of the Red Army held an all-army youth work conference at the garrison (ancestral hall), which was attended by dozens of people, including Zhu De, commander-in-chief of the Red Army, Zhu De, general political commissar, Wang Jiaxiang, director of the General Political Department, and Xiao Xiangrong, secretary general of the General Political Department. Just as Zhou Enlai was making a report, six Kuomintang military planes indiscriminately blew up the ancestral hall that was used as the venue. A bomb exploded not far away, and Wang Jiaxiang was seriously injured and fell into a pool of blood.
Dr. He Cheng, who came to the scene, used an electric iron absorbing stone to suck out some shrapnel from Wang Jiaxiang's abdomen, but there were still some fragments left deep in the skin that could not be taken out, and Dr. He Cheng's advice was to send it to Ruijin Rear Hospital for treatment.
Wang Jiaxiang
In Ruijin Rear Hospital, dr. Peng Zhen (Peng Longbo) and Wang Bin are responsible for treatment. Since there was no X-ray machine to detect the specific location of the residual shrapnel, Peng Zhen, as the attending physician, decided to take conservative treatment. Later, with the X-ray machine and the residual shrapnel without removing it, Wang Jiaxiang's abdominal wound had been bleeding pus.
Regarding Wang Jiaxiang's suffering due to illness, in the "Biography of Wang Jiaxiang", it is said: "His wounds often bleed with pus, and the nursing staff stuffed the wounds with rubber tubes, put silk threads on the outside of the rubber tubes, and wrapped gauze cotton around the outside of the silk threads, using this method to discharge the pus out of the body to reduce the chance of speaking." Sometimes when riding a horse or walking, the rubber tube falls into the wound and inflammation occurs. ”
The Central Red Army (Shaanxi-Gansu Detachment) had just arrived in Wuqi Town, northern Shaanxi, when Wang Jiaxiang's condition, which had been carried on a stretcher during the Long March, suddenly deteriorated; Wang Jiaxiang had a high fever and was unconscious; people thought wang Jiaxiang could not survive; Yang Shangkun accompanied him all the time.
Later, it was discovered that the cause of Wang Jiaxiang's imminent death was a wound infection caused by a rotten tube. This tube is a rubber tube that Dr. Wang Bin inserted into his waist when he treated Wang Jiaxiang, who was seriously injured. After the people pulled out the rotten tube and treated the wound, Wang Jiaxiang's fever also receded, and his life was saved.

In February 1935, after the Tashi Conference, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China decided to return to Qianbei and retake Zunyi, and Hu Yaobang's Red Thirteenth Regiment accepted the battle task given by the head of the regiment to attack Loushan Pass and retake Zunyi City. On February 26, the Red Thirteenth Regiment launched a battle to capture Loushan Pass; Hu Yaobang rushed to the front and shouted to the commanders and fighters: "Comrades! The enemy wants to use the pass to stand by and wait for help, and to force us to the outside of the pass. We must seize the opportunity to attack Loushan Pass, destroy the enemy, and win the victory..... Look, another batch of enemies has been pressed down from the level. Comrades, take up the knife and gun, rush! The opportunity to kill the enemy and make meritorious achievements has arrived."
Hu Yaobang
On 27 February, after capturing Loushan Pass, the Red Thirteenth Regiment marched toward Zunyi City, where Hu Yaobang and his propaganda team were on standby not far from it: once the troops had crushed the enemy's main resistance, they would enter the city to help maintain order.
At this time, a group of enemy planes flew low and swooped down; a bomb exploded near Hu Yaobang, and a piece of shrapnel hit Hu Yaobang's right buttock, causing serious injuries. Hu Yaobang was carried on a stretcher into Zunyi City and sent to the Catholic Church. In the church, the surgeon Wang Bin (Bin) used "opium water" to anesthetize Hu Yaobang and performed surgery, but the shrapnel could not be removed, and the shrapnel remained in his body. To this end, Hu Yaobang once spoke highly of Dr. Wang Bin.

Before crossing the meadow, due to labor and lack of food, Zhou Enlai fell ill in Mao'ergai, which was very serious. Initially, Zhou Enlai's illness was treated as a general malaria, but it did not improve.
The correspondent urgently called Dr. Li Zhi over. After examination, Dr. Li Zhi judged that Zhou Enlai was suffering from amoebic liver abscess; in order to confirm the diagnosis, Dr. Li Zhi also invited the surgeon Wang Bin, and finally determined that it was as Dr. Li Zhi judged.
Zhou Enlai
Dr. Li Zhi and Dr. Wang Bin have developed a specific treatment plan, which cannot be implemented due to medical conditions. Finally, Dr. Li Zhi treated with the special drug imidine.
In order to save Zhou Enlai's life, Dr. Li Zhi used the treatment method of freezing intrahepatic pus combined with needle puncture of the anorectal junction site. Later, under the treatment of external ice cubes and needle puncture of the anorectal joint site, Zhou Enlai eliminated the pus in the body, and the high fever also subsided.
