Xu Shengtian clenched his fists, a chill running through his heart.
"The supplies are here, Commander! The supplies are here!" someone shouted as they rushed in.
Xu Shengtian went out from under the shed and, with binoculars in hand, saw a car coming from the low-lying area. It was a car from Fengyi Hospital.
"The medicine is here, it's anti-inflammatory medicine, come quick, someone help me lift it!" someone shouted as the car door opened.
Xu Shengtian and Deputy Cui exchanged a glance. They knew Dean Fang wouldn't lie, but they just didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
Boxes of medicine were moved over, and nurses had already started injecting anti-inflammatory drugs into the wounded. Xu Shengtian was initially worried, but after an hour, several wounded soldiers' fevers gradually subsided.
"The previous medicine wasn't that potent, was it?" Lieutenant Cui couldn't help but ask.
The person delivering the medicine laughed, "Of course, the medicine made by our Dr. Bai is better than that made by foreigners!"
"Dr. Bai also asked me to pass on a message to you, to put your mind at ease: she can send you as much medicine as you need. You can have the accompanying doctor make a list, and we'll replenish whatever you're missing."
Xu Shengtian patted the man on the shoulder: "Please thank Dr. Bai for me."
"Cui Bo, you can take the hospital car back with us," Xu Shengtian said after thinking for a moment.

"General..." Lieutenant Cui understood what he meant. The General was no longer planning to defend; he wanted to attack. So they had to be prepared for the worst.
Xu Shengtian said, "You need to find the mother and daughter from the Bai family as soon as possible. Let me know when you find them."
Lieutenant Cui finally nodded.
Xu Shengtian continued, "If I don't win in the end, there's still a team at the hospital. You take them to protect the Bai family mother and daughter, and lead them and the doctor who made the penicillin away."
Taking them away was his selfish act, while that doctor... could save many people.
"Yes, Commander."
...
A month later, the Fengyi Army won, and the attackers retreated more than a hundred miles away. Bai Yan heard from the sentry that the commander-in-chief's carriage had returned to the mansion, so she nervously waited with the dean at the city gate to welcome him, but unexpectedly only a soldier got out of the carriage.
"Dean Fang, the commander has been shot! Please come with us quickly!"
