Chapter 168 He accidentally tripped a mine...

In the local military office, Wang Ziru was waiting anxiously.

He even estimated in his mind how long it would take for Liu to come back and call them after he went to the family compound.

At that time, it was the largest Chinese medicine shop in the town.

Duan Yanzhi slammed the car door heavily, and his tall figure disappeared into the pharmacy. He was too lazy to even glance back at the old shopkeeper when he greeted him.

The man sitting in the teahouse was flipping through a book. The familiar footsteps made him raise his eyes slowly. He saw that his nephew looked very unhappy. "You've been here for a day and a night. The people on the other side of the mountain were so scared that they dared not open fire. Are you quiet too?"

"What do you know, you old bastard?" Duan Yanzhi walked into the teahouse, pulled out a chair and sat down, his eyes piercing him coldly, "Let me tell you this, if he doesn't make any move tonight, I'll just go over and blow up his bridge and destroy his road."

In conclusion, a cigarette has been lit.

Duan Yanzhi leaned back in his chair, playing with his lighter, "Did you see the young wife who came to the pharmacy to get medicine yesterday?"

"Hmm? Are you attracted to her wife?"

"Can you say something nice with your mouth, you old man?" Duan Yanzhi's nostrils were filled with two streams of white smoke, and he couldn't help cursing in a rough voice: "I know that you can't give any face to the female soldiers in the army. If you give them a little color, they will open a dyeing factory for you tomorrow."

"What do you mean?"

"The young wife suddenly ran up to me crying and insisted on calling the army to ask if her child had starved to death. I was on the phone with Han Suijing at the time, exchanging ideas, and she interrupted me. I forgot what I was going to say next. I really wanted to slap her and throw her against the wall."

Duan Suili's interest was inexplicably aroused by his nephew: "You should be thankful that you didn't hit her or use violence. Otherwise, if something happens to her, not only will she hate you, but Han Suijing will hate you too."

Duan Yanzhi's eyes were filled with doubt, "You old bastard! Are you out of your mind? This matter has nothing to do with Han Suijing, why would he hate me?"

Then he saw his uncle's voice was still lazy: "We grew up together. Since you were a kid, you have always boasted that you have a high IQ. Why can't you get over this relationship?"

"No! What on earth are you trying to say, old man?"

Not to mention that Duan Yanzhi never thought deeply about Wang Ziru, how could he connect a young village wife like her with Han Suijing?

Naturally, he didn't realize that the young wife who had been hanging around in front of him these past two days was actually...

Seeing that my eldest nephew was racking his brains.

Duan Suili smiled and said, "From now on, your name can only be written backwards."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Can my name, Duan Yanzhi, be written backwards? Let me tell you, it can't be written at all..." Duan Yanzhi pointed at his uncle. Before he finished his joke, a loud thunder was heard, breaking the sky of the entire town.

The two men of similar age sitting in the teahouse both looked gloomy. This was a huge noise coming from the other side of the mountain.

Duan Yanzhi was stunned for a moment, and in a flash, the tall figure disappeared outside the tea room.

Through the bright light outside the window, Duan Suili only caught a glimpse of the rear end of the jeep, which quickly disappeared at the entrance of the alley.

At this moment, the soldiers on the main road of the town heard the loud noise and ran out.

Xu Changhe rushed out of the local office, swearing, and ordered his subordinates to quickly form a team. He turned around and saw a jeep rushing towards him like a rocket, "Report to the commander!"

"It's the sound of a mine exploding! Go get two sanitation workers to follow."

The jeep did not slow down. Duan Yan leaned his head against the window and yelled at Xu Changhe. The jeep had already rushed to the foot of the mountain in front of the town.

Zhai Ximo had already rushed out of the mansion subconsciously the moment he heard the huge and sharp explosion outside.

Hurry to integrate the team.

Adjutant Wang ran outside and quickly turned around and ran back into the large house. Only then did he see Wang Ziru still waiting for a call in the office.

"Comrade Ziru! Go back and get the first aid kit, and go into the mountains with the commander and the others to rescue the injured."

"But, but I..." Wang Ziru didn't know whether a conflict had broken out outside again. She hesitated and before she could say a word, she was dragged out of the office by Adjutant Wang.

After waiting for two days and one night, everyone's nerves were tense.

The sudden series of explosions completely destroyed everyone's tense nerves.

Wang Ziru returned to the ward to organize the first aid kit. Everyone in the ward looked panicked, and Zhu Yan was still sleeping in the dormitory.

I was also awakened by the explosion outside, and quickly put on my clothes and came out, "Sister Ziru! I'll go with you."

"Yeah! Let's go!"

Wang Ziru quickly grabbed some emergency trauma medicine, put on the first aid kit, and took Zhu Yan out to meet everyone.

On the road outside, an unknown number of people were already heading towards the foot of the mountain.

Adjutant Wang saw the sanitation staff coming out and said, "Follow me."

When we reached the foot of the mountain, others had already gone up the mountain.

Wang Ziru had no choice but to climb up the mountain along a mountain road. However, Adjutant Wang received an order not to let the two female sanitation workers go forward. "You two wait on the mountainside."

Wang Ziru could feel the atmosphere was very depressing, so she and Zhu Yan had no choice but to stand on a temporary rest platform on the mountainside and wait.

I don't know how much time had passed before a group of people came down the mountain carrying two stretchers.

"Is anyone injured?" She could already smell a strong smell of blood.

Two stretchers came down one after the other, and Adjutant Wang followed closely behind, "Comrade Ziru, go and see if the wounded can be saved."

"What injuries did they suffer?"

"These are two scouts who accidentally stepped on a mine while conducting cross-border reconnaissance..." Adjutant Wang rolled and crawled down the slope, his face pale.

Two stretchers were placed in the middle of the slightly flat road, and Wang Ziru hurried over to check.

Then Zhu Yan was heard to say “yue” repeatedly.

The others waited for Wang Ziru's inspection with solemn faces. In the midst of everyone's nervous waiting, they suddenly heard Wang Ziru say in a deep voice: "This comrade's body was broken, and he has died."

He stood up and walked to another stretcher, then squatted down quickly. He was already unconscious.

Wang Ziru didn't hold out much hope. After a preliminary examination, her legs were the most seriously injured. Even if she survived, she would probably be disabled.

"He can still be saved! Now I have to bandage him on the spot! Then send him back to the on-site intensive care unit..."

Immediately, Wang Ziru squatted on the spot to stop the bleeding and bandage the wounds of the warrior.

When Duan Yanzhi came down from the densely wooded mountain, he saw Wang Ziru squatting in the middle of the road, bandaging a wounded soldier.

Adjutant Wang rushed forward and took the initiative to report the situation of the two warriors.

Hearing that one of them had no hope, Duan Yanzhi said solemnly, "Carry the person back first, and contact the family members and do the follow-up work."

"yes!"

Adjutant Wang led everyone, carrying the soldier, and hurried down the mountain.

In April, there was a gentle breeze on the mountain and it was relatively cool in the forest.

A group of people surrounded the stretcher and watched with their own eyes as Wang Ziru stopped the bleeding from a soldier's leg wound. After a simple bandage, the group hurriedly sent the injured down the mountain.

Wang Ziru packed up the first aid kit and trotted to catch up with Commander Duan. "Commander! I suggest sending this soldier to a large hospital in the city immediately."

"Send him to a big hospital in the city? Can't you handle it?"

"I can only use the limited conditions available to stop his bleeding, but his legs are seriously injured and he must receive comprehensive treatment in a large hospital. Otherwise, with such serious injuries, I cannot guarantee that he will survive for 24 hours."

"Yes, I will arrange it."

After returning to the station, Duan Yanzhi went into the office, picked up the phone, and began to plan the battle for that night.

Soon, the news of the situation in Baiteng Town was reported to the Heshuo Four Towns Command.

All the soldiers stationed on the ground heard that something had happened to a reconnaissance soldier.

In the ward, the internal strife that had occurred when everyone first arrived a few days ago, at this moment, all became silent, and everyone worked silently.

…

Troops Family Home.

At Zhai's house, Cheng Xueru had just arrived and was reading comic books with the little guy.

She knew that Zhai Qingsong used to cook with firewood in his hometown, and that he was not yet proficient in cooking with honeycomb coal when he arrived at the military compound. So she picked up a load of charcoal from her own home and brought it to Zhai Qingsong to use when lighting the stove.

After receiving Zhai Ximo's call, Officer Liu hurried to the family compound and ran up to the third floor to inquire about the situation at Zhai's house.

"Fortunately! Thanks to Comrade Xueru's help, nothing happened to the Zhai family's child. This time, I am really grateful to Comrade Xueru." Secretary Liu and Zhai Qingsong learned about their situation after arriving at the army in person. Knowing that it was Cheng Xueru who helped them, Secretary Liu was very grateful.

Zhai Qingsong also heard that his younger brother and sister-in-law had called specially, so Officer Liu went to their home to express his condolences. Zhuang Jiahan couldn't say anything profound, but simply thanked the troops for their care.

"Since you are all right, I feel relieved. I will call your brother later and tell him that you two are doing well at home."

Before leaving, Secretary Liu took a few more glances at the kid sitting on the rattan chair reading a comic book.

Cheng Xueru sat on a rattan chair, holding a baby in her arms, smiling brightly, "Manager Liu, there is no news from the battlefield, right?"

"No, Deputy Commander Zhai called and told me to rest assured that my husband is fine."

"I dreamed of Comrade Peng Zhengyu last night. Maybe he will be returning to the army soon."

"Their scouts shouldn't be that fast. But, Comrade Xueru, you don't have to worry too much. This conflict won't last long." Officer Liu stood at the door and chatted with Cheng Xueru for a few words before rushing back to the regiment headquarters to be on duty.

Manager Liu was still downstairs when he saw two figures running down from upstairs. He hurriedly asked, "What happened?"

The two civilian officials were in charge of duty in different offices of the regiment headquarters. When they saw Officer Liu coming back, both of them looked solemn.

"Something has indeed happened!" said one of the clerical staff.

"Did Zhan Di call back?" Officer Liu asked tremblingly. With his many years of clerical experience, he knew that Zhan Di must have sent back some notification, which was why they looked so panicked.

"I just received a call from Adjutant Wang, he said our scout Peng Zhengyu..."

Liu's mind suddenly exploded with a thought, "What happened to Comrade Peng Zhengyu?"

Another clerical clerk patted Liu on the shoulder and whispered something in his ear.

"…The man should be sent back tomorrow. Now we have to notify his family immediately. Commander Duan has said that we must do a good job of comforting him." The civilian looked sad. "I will go to the village to inform his wife right away."

"Wait, wait a minute, I just ran into Comrade Peng Zhengyu's wife. She's at Zhai's house on the third floor of the family compound," Officer Liu said with a numb face and great pain. "You guys do other things first. I'll go and notify Comrade Cheng Xueru."
