In the 1960s,
Tao Yuan came out of the bathroom first, dried himself, and went straight to bed without wearing anything. He knew that one time would not be enough, and he would be too lazy to take off his clothes later.
He Liyuan also came out of the bathroom and stood beside the bed, wiping his hair. When he saw Tao Yuan leaning on the bed, his body immediately became hot again. He threw away the towel and got into bed.
Tao Yuan was held in his arms and kissed him, and when he pressed him down, he asked, "Are you going to start the exercise?"
"Yeah." He Liyuan answered him without stopping his hands. "It's not a big exercise, just a small-scale one. It will be over soon."
"From what Fourth Uncle said, it seems this exercise is very important." Tao Yuan asked while panting.
"Well..., I'll tell you later." He Liyuan really didn't have time to talk.
The body that had just been penetrated was easily entered. Tao Yuan bit his lips and endured it, but when he could no longer bear it, he cried out.
He Liyuan liked to hear his screams and always deliberately stimulated him to make him scream louder.
………………………………
Tao Yuan leaned on He Liyuan's chest, breathing heavily. He Liyuan opened the cup on the bedside table and fed him water.
After drinking a few sips of water, Tao Yuan screamed a little louder before he felt better and his breathing gradually became stable.
Before sleepiness came over him, Tao Yuan said, "You haven't told me why the exercise is so important."
"Do you know the Yunling Mountain area?" He Liyuan asked.
"Yes, in Huiyang, it's surrounded by mountains and the terrain is steep. I heard there are many strange mountains." Tao Yuan asked, "Are you going there for training?"
"It's not just an exercise, but the two squadrons that won the exercise will go there to carry out very important missions."
"What mission?" Tao Yuan thought. The place was located in the central inland area. After the civil unrest was quelled, there would be no more war there. However, I heard that there were many bandits there.
"Nowadays, public security in various regions has been tightened, leaving many bandits with nowhere to escape. They've turned their attention to stealing cultural relics. The Yunling Mountains are surrounded by mountains, making it easy for bandits to hide. There's a group of notorious bandits there who have committed tomb robberies several times, but once they hide in the mountains, they're very difficult to catch. A batch of cultural relics has already been lost abroad, and this time, the tomb was robbed from an emperor, where many important artifacts were stolen and hidden. We've been told to find the artifacts and eliminate the bandit gang. This exercise will determine which squadron is better at mountain warfare."
"These bandits are truly despicable. During the civil war, they took advantage of the chaos to rob the people of their property. Now that the civil war is over, they are stealing cultural relics again and smuggling them abroad to sell. They are even more despicable! You must eliminate them all. We cannot allow our national cultural relics to be lost abroad anymore."
"Those bandits are not easy to deal with. If I can go this time, I may not be able to come back for a while. You must take good care of yourself at home." He Liyuan felt very reluctant when he thought that they would soon be separated for a while.
"I can go with you. If you go to suppress bandits, you must bring a military doctor. I can just apply to join the accompanying military doctor team."
"The conditions there are very bad, and you have to walk to get into the mountains and climb up the mountain. Cars can't drive in. It's too hard, and I don't want you to suffer." He Liyuan said.
"I've said it before, I'm not afraid of hardship, but it depends on whether I'm willing to endure it. My grandfather once went to the Yunling Mountains to collect herbs. He said there are many poisonous snakes, insects, and weeds there. I wouldn't feel at ease if I didn't go with you."
"...Okay, but it will be really hard, you have to be mentally prepared." He Liyuan said.
"Yeah." Tao Yuan lay on his chest, sleepiness gradually coming over him. He yawned and soon fell asleep.
Two days later, He Liyuan went to participate in the exercise. Tao Yuan was very confident in his command ability, so he also prepared to apply to the hospital to join the medical team.
As soon as Tao Yuan arrived at the hospital, the director asked someone to call him over.
"These leaders have something to ask you." The dean said to Tao Yuan.
"What's the matter?" Tao Yuan asked puzzledly.
"In the Yunling Mountains, there is a group of very powerful bandits who stole national cultural relics and sold them abroad. Due to the special nature of the Yunling Mountains, there are many poisonous insects and weeds, and even the locals dare not enter the mountains easily. However, those bandits are very familiar with the environment in the mountains, which brings great difficulty to the task of suppressing the bandits. I remember that your grandfather went to that area to collect herbs before. I wonder if he left any medical books?" asked the dean.
"Yes," Tao Yuan said, "but later, my grandfather burned the medical books."
"Burned?" The dean looked at him in surprise and asked, "Why did it burn?"
"My mother has been in poor health since she was a child. My grandfather took great pains to treat her, and her condition gradually improved. But when I was only a few years old, my mother contracted a strange disease and passed away suddenly, catching even my grandfather off guard. The medicine book contained herbs that could have cured my mother, but they were all used up, and it was too late to collect them. After my mother passed away, my grandfather was extremely sad when he saw the medicine book, so he simply burned it. Later, he burned books whenever he was sad, and now the medical books left are less than half of what they used to be."
The dean sighed and felt very regretful. If those medical books had been kept, they would definitely be treasures in the medical field.
Hearing Tao Yuan say that the medicine book was burned, the leaders looked at each other and felt very regretful. However, they could understand the pain in the heart of the genius doctor Luo Guyang, who had saved countless lives in his life, but in the end he could not save his own daughter.
"But I have read that medicine book. It contains not only herbs that can save lives, but also extremely poisonous ones. Because it can fight poison with poison, my grandfather also recorded it. I remember everything in it."
"Really?" The dean looked at him in surprise. "Didn't you say you were only a few years old at the time?"
"I've had a photographic memory since I was a child. I've memorized everything I've read from those medical books my grandfather burned. Otherwise, how do you think I was able to treat those patients and prescribe so many medicines?"
"You are such a genius!" the dean couldn't help but admire.
Tao Yuan nodded and said without any modesty, "My grandfather said the same thing. He said that my talent in Chinese medicine is even higher than his."
"The cultural relics stolen this time are of great significance to the country. Can you please..."
"I deeply hate those who rob tombs and sell national cultural relics abroad. So this time, I hope to contribute to the bandit suppression and follow the accompanying military doctor to the Yunling Mountains."
"Great!" The dean could see that Tao Yuan was a person who was particularly unwilling to endure hardships and hardship. He was thinking about how to persuade him, but he didn't expect that he would take the initiative to ask to go.
Several leaders also nodded, showing a much more relaxed expression.
Because they were worried that many soldiers would be bitten by poisonous insects during the bandit suppression campaign and Tao Yuan would be too busy to handle it, the military district headquarters sent two more veteran Chinese medicine doctors to go with them.
There was another person who also took the initiative to apply to go with them, that was Wen Han, and his application was also approved.
The Brave Tiger Squadron had been a model squadron since He Liyuan became captain, so their victory in the exercise was expected by everyone. The other victorious squadron, the Fierce Wolf Squadron, captained by Ning Haobo, was a bit of a surprise.
Wen Han originally wanted to take this opportunity to separate from Ning Haobo for a while to prevent him from coming to see him all the time, but now Ning Haobo also wants to go, which makes him feel a little uncomfortable.
Tao Yuan prepared two large boxes of things. There were no suitcases in that era, so he could only pack all his bottles and jars in wooden boxes.
Su Lan was worried that he would suffer if he went there, so she kept stuffing things into his bag and kept telling him to be careful and take care of himself.
In this bandit suppression operation, the Brave Tiger Squadron was the main combat force, the Fierce Wolf Squadron assisted in the battle, and the local militia cooperated in the battle.
After completing the urgent preparations, the Brave Tiger Squadron set out first, occupying a hilltop that was easily defended and difficult to attack, and then set up camp. The Fierce Wolf Squadron followed, carrying supplies, guns, and ammunition.
Because there are no roads in the mountains, cars cannot enter, so you have to walk in and then start climbing.
The medical team and the Brave Tiger Squadron went into the mountains together. In addition to transporting camping supplies by manpower, the soldiers also had to help the medical team transport medical supplies.
After walking on the mountain road for two hours, Tao Yuan was already sweating profusely before he even started climbing.
Most of the soldiers had already gone forward, leaving only a small number of soldiers escorting their medical team as they slowly walked. The mountain road was rugged and difficult to navigate, and the two old Chinese doctors were supported by the soldiers as they walked.
Tao Yuan stopped to rest for a while before continuing. It was still early, and the soldiers would have to set up camp on the mountain, so there was no need to move so fast.
Tao Yuan wiped the sweat from his face with his sleeve, looked up and saw He Liyuan walking back.
He Liyuan walked quickly to Tao Yuan and looked at him worriedly, "Are you tired? Can you still walk?"
"I'm a little tired, but I can still walk," said Tao Yuan.
"Let me carry you. We're going to start climbing a mountain, which will be even more tiring."
"No, it won't be nice if others see you." Tao Yuan refused. "You have to climb the mountain by yourself, and you have to carry me on your back. Isn't that even more tiring?"
"I'm carrying my own wife on my back, what's wrong with that?" He Liyuan turned around and squatted down. "Hurry up and get up."
Tao Yuan looked around and thought that it was not good to remain in a stalemate. Once they reached the front, the people behind them would not be able to see them, and those soldiers would have already gone far away.
Tao Yuan lay on He Liyuan's back, and He Liyuan stood up and strode forward.
"If you are tired, just tell me. I can walk by myself." Tao Yuan said in his ear.
"You are so light. Carrying you on my back is easier than carrying a load on my back for cross-country walking." He Liyuan said.
Looking at the two people walking away, the nurses who were supporting each other were extremely envious.
"I wish I had someone to carry me on my back."
"Captain He is carrying his own wife on his back. Who do you want to carry you?"
"I'm really thinking now, I'll marry anyone who's willing to carry me on their back. This road is really too difficult to walk."
"Go tell those soldiers, there will definitely be some who are willing to carry you in order to marry you."
"They are all carrying things, how can they carry me? I still envy Dr. Yue. Her husband is right by her side, and there is always someone to care for her. It's worth it even if she is tired."
"Every time Dr. Yue comes to the hospital, Captain He is sometimes the one who picks him up and drops him off. They have a really good relationship."
"Isn't it? The way Captain He looks at Doctor Yue is so obviously full of love. No one would believe that they don't love each other."
"It's really great to be able to marry the one I love. I feel envious just thinking about it."
Wen Han not only had to endure the pain in his feet, but also the pain in his heart. He gritted his teeth and walked hard step by step.
A nurse turned her head and saw him, and said to him, "Doctor Wen, you should have come with the Wolf Squadron, so that you would have someone to carry you."
Wen Han frowned, quickened his pace, and walked in front of them without saying a word.
After Wenhan walked away, the nurses started discussing in a low voice again.
"Doctor Wen's face looks so grim, is he feeling uncomfortable or unhappy?"
"This road is so difficult and tiring, anyone would feel uncomfortable."
"Do you think Dr. Wen still likes Captain He, and that's why he's unhappy?"
"I also think that although Captain Ning's family background, character, abilities, and appearance are not bad, compared to Captain He, I think everyone would choose Captain He. And you see, Captain He treats Doctor Yue so well, he is really worth marrying."
"Love is a mutual thing. If you love me, I love you too. If you treat me well, I treat you well too. Only in this way can we live happily together. Captain He treats Doctor Yue well because Doctor Yue treats him well too. If it weren't for Doctor Yue, Captain He would definitely still be lying in bed now."
"That's right. Even if Dr. Wen regrets it, it's useless. If he had married Captain He, Captain He wouldn't have recovered so well."
