The next one was slightly more difficult to remove than the first one; Qin, the military doctor, was sweating profusely while retrieving it. Gu Moli was in even more pain, sweating all over, with the veins on his forehead and hands bulging as if they were about to burst.
If it weren't for the towel stuffed in his mouth, Gu Moli might have bitten himself. After what seemed like an eternity, Doctor Qin finally removed the bullet. After treating everything, Doctor Qin bandaged Gu Moli's wound.
Before removing the bullet, the Qin army doctor instructed the soldiers to boil some water in an aluminum lunchbox, add some candy, and boil it into a sweet soup for Gu Moli to drink to replenish his energy.
After drinking the sugar water, Gu Moli fell into a deep sleep. He was too exhausted to continue, and he was covered in wounds and had lost too much blood. In the end, he even had a bullet removed from his body.
Knowing that Gu Moli was out of immediate danger, his comrades breathed a sigh of relief. They had all come on this mission together, naturally hoping that everyone would return safely and without anyone missing.
Gu Moli is in such a state that he can only be carried away. The man who was injured by Gu Moli and is lying on the ground has been shot in both legs and is now unconscious, so he can only be carried away as well.
They made two simple stretchers using materials they found on the spot, and two people carried the person back to the place where the several teams had gathered.
When his comrades saw Gu Moli being carried back, they all went up to ask how he was doing. They were relieved to learn that he was temporarily out of danger.
The soldiers were exhausted after the battle. They didn't have the strength to lead the invaders back for the time being, so they could only rest and replenish their strength before heading back.
The so-called rest was just sitting down to eat and drink. The nine intruders were all tied up, and their jaws were removed to prevent them from committing suicide.
It's 6:30 in the morning, but the jungle is still pitch black. Shao Fei sits beside Gu Moli, keeping watch. Although Gu Moli is temporarily out of danger, it would be very dangerous if the wound became infected and caused a fever.
Looking at Gu Moli, who was pale and unconscious, Shao Fei felt terrible. Gu Moli had been injured while trying to save him; both shots in his back were from when he was trying to save someone.
Shao Fei felt that Gu Moli was a true soldier. He was not afraid of hardship or fatigue, and always bravely charged forward on missions. He was willing to risk his life to save his comrades, and even chased after the enemy while wounded to prevent them from escaping.
This spirit is no different from that of the martyrs of the War of Resistance Against Japan; they were all for the country, the people, and their comrades. In fact, Shao Fei knew that with Mo Li's uncle's status and the positions of his cousins, Mo Li would have been promoted long ago if he wanted to.
But Gu Moli chose to keep it a secret, not taking advantage of their power in the slightest, and focused on working his way up from the bottom. This was something Shao Fei greatly admired about Gu Moli.
The men tried to escape, but no matter what they did, they couldn't find a way. They couldn't understand why they had been discovered and were now being captured and taken prisoner.
These soldiers were a group of hot-blooded young men who didn't care about treating prisoners well. Adding to their woes, two of their comrades had been shot, one seriously, and everyone else was riddled with wounds. They showed no mercy to any intruders trying to escape.
After resting for three hours, Gu Moli did not develop a fever. However, he remained unconscious. Doctor Qin examined him and confirmed that his vital signs were normal; the cause was simply excessive blood loss due to exhaustion.
