Chapter 84
It was time for Chen Yaozu to go to the hospital. At three in the morning, Fu Le set off with the group. Chen Yaozu didn't sit in the carriage, but instead wore a barley hat and a dusty gray coat, sitting on the cargo wagon behind. There were four wagons, escorted by ten strong men, all with sharp eyes, clearly capable. In the wagon, besides Fu Le, there was another girl, Chen Yiyi. Chen Yiyi was the eldest daughter of Chen Yaozu's younger brother. She attended an all-girls school and was a nurse. She was going to the field hospital with her own ambitions.
As the Chen family's carriages left the city gate, another carriage secretly entered the city, passing by each other.
It was at this moment that Fu Le lifted the curtain and looked out, taking in a male face that exuded a violent aura.
Fu Le: !!!
The Japanese devils have entered the city! ...
It seems these Japanese soldiers came for the food. I wonder how those three families felt when they found all their valuables gone, and even their stockpiled supplies were completely gone. I'm quite curious how they're going to explain themselves to the Japanese.
"Sister, how far is the field hospital from here?"
"It's not far. At our current pace, it'll only take a day and a night." The little girl with braided pigtails had her eyelids drooping.
"Will we be staying there for a long time?" A whole day and night? Where are we going? It's too far, isn't it? But field hospitals aren't far from the front lines, so it's normal for it to be a bit far. Right now, Fu Le is annoyed that he hasn't studied history properly during this period; he's completely clueless about everything.
"Probably not. They'll be heading back in a day at most. The pawnshop is very busy."
They traveled day and night, always on the move, even eating in the carriage. They would stop briefly when it was convenient to stop, then return to the carriage and continue on their way. Even though the carriage was covered with soft cushions, Fu Le was almost shaken to death.
I thought the journey would be smooth sailing, but before I was even halfway there, I heard gunshots.
There's a war going on in Beihe!
That's right, it would be abnormal if there wasn't a war, otherwise how would we have run into Qian Xiaofeng and his group?
"Master Chen, a battle is taking place at Qianlipo, less than ten miles from us. I wonder which team it is." A whisper came from the carriage behind, which Fu Le could hear clearly. By this time, it was already broad daylight. He looked at his watch and it was past nine o'clock.
Fu Le held his breath and listened intently.
"Detour around Taiyuan Mountain."
"yes."
The direction was quickly adjusted, and the gunshots faded into the distance. Fu Le pursed her lips with a hint of regret; she had wanted to blow up a bunch of Japanese devils.
The roads at the foot of Taiyuan Mountain were all dirt roads, which wore out the horses' hooves and slowed down the horses.
"Little sister, are you scared? We're next to Rehe, and Rehe has already fallen. Soon it will be our turn." Disturbed by the gunfire, Yi Yi wanted to say something, even though she knew the little girl wouldn't understand. She continued, "Why should we be bullied by the Japanese devils? Just because we're poor? I'm not reconciled!! Ya Ya, I heard your parents are doctors on the front lines. You'll definitely study medicine in the future, right?"
"Yes, I do know medicine!" Fu Le said with a grin.
"Really?!" Lu Yiyi was delighted to hear Fu Le's words. "If you also become a doctor, you can save more soldiers."
And so, the two little girls, one big and one small, started talking about treating their injuries.
Hearing the conversation inside the carriage, Chen Yaozu outside smiled and thought, "What a wonderful child! He's so young yet already has such a broad mind. He's so much better than my kids who are still fighting over a piece of candy."
Jiangjiazui Field Hospital was a large courtyard house that had been requisitioned as a hospital. White sheets were drying in the courtyard, along with some worn-out military uniforms. The soldiers who came here were all severely wounded. As soon as you entered the courtyard, you could smell the strong stench of blood.
"Dr. Wu, we're running low on hemostatic powder. When will Dr. Wang and the others be able to deliver the medicine? We're also out of bandages, and we haven't had any anti-inflammatory drugs for a long time..." In the doctor's office, several nurses were talking to the doctor in charge when a young male nurse ran in. "Director, it's here! Brother Chen's medicine has arrived."
The doctors and nurses inside stood up excitedly, looking at the newcomer expectantly. "Is he outside?"
"No, it's still half a day's journey. I'll rush back to deliver the message. Xiao Duan will come back with them."
"That's good, that's good."
Traveling at night, Fu Le was dozing off in the carriage when suddenly a strange noise came from the roadside, sounding like many people and voices.
No!! He suddenly opened his eyes! Fu Le's hair stood on end!
"Uncle Chen, there are Japanese soldiers!!" As Fu Le screamed, sure enough, gunshots rang out from outside, followed by the sound of officers giving orders.
"Master Chen, you go first. We'll stay here and hold them off. Master Chen, you promised us that if we die, you'll have to take care of our children!" A rough male voice came from outside, filled with the determination to die.
"Don't worry, I will. Even if I, Chen Yaozu, starve to death, I will make sure your whole family is well-fed and watered!"
"That's good!! Brothers, charge with me! Hold off these bastards!!"
Fu Le pressed down Xiao Duan and Yi Yi, who had joined halfway through the journey, and jumped out of the carriage with his schoolbag on his back. He was so fast that neither of them could react in time.
A loud 'boom' was heard as a grenade exploded.
The driver, rushing to catch the carriage, was startled and sped up even more. Under the cover of night, they had to leave as quickly as possible; these medicines were the soldiers' lives at stake!
The brothers, who were prepared to die, watched as one grenade after another flew out of the bushes, blasting the enemy in the shadows into a rout.
Before Chen Yaozu could figure out what was going on, he heard Yi Yi crying and Xiao Duan's anxious voice coming from inside the carriage.
Does it sound like they're calling for Xiao Yaya?
This ambush was just Chen Yaozu's bad luck. It was just twelve Japanese scouts who happened to run into him, saw so much cargo, and wanted to rob it. Of course, he wasn't too unlucky, as he brought Fu Le with him.
Hidden in the shadows, taking advantage of his superior hearing, Fu Le threw grenades with great enthusiasm, and the unprepared Japanese soldiers below were bombarded and fell to the ground, dying everywhere.
Fu Le fired more than ten grenades before stopping. Before she knew it, she was surrounded by strong men. The bright moonlight illuminated their faces, and each of them was either stunned or speechless, with different expressions. It was clear that they were frightened by Fu Le's actions.
It turns out she wouldn't let anyone touch her big backpack because it was full of hand grenades!
"Are there any wounded?" Fu Le asked. Although she had given the warning, they were a step too slow to raise their guns.
