As soon as the doctor finished speaking, a voice came from outside the ward: "Who has sulfa in their hands?" As the voice came, the door of the ward was pushed open from the outside, and a man wearing a major general's uniform walked away.
Come in.
Li Yunsheng was startled when he saw this person. He immediately stood up and saluted, and said seriously: "Instructor, why are you here?"
The person who came in was Hao Jinyuan, Li Yunsheng's instructor during his military academy days and Major General Chief of Staff of the 11th Division.
Hao Jinyuan was also stunned when he saw Li Yunsheng, but he did not hesitate and simply asked: "Do you still have sulfa in your hands?"
Hearing Hao Jinyuan's words, Li Yunsheng immediately said: "Instructor, I still have a few sulfonamides in my hand. Do you want to use them?"
Hao Jinyuan was not polite at all, and said directly: "Yes, I have two officers under my command who have high fevers and are waiting for sulfa to save their lives."
Li Yunsheng immediately said, "I'll have someone go get it right away," and then he ordered the Zhou brothers beside him to go back and get some sulfonamides.
After the Zhou brothers left, Li Yunsheng asked again: "Instructor, are the medicines so tight now? Given your status, you don't even have them."
Hao Jinyuan sighed and said: "Since the war started, there have been hundreds of thousands of casualties. Now the logistics department no longer has a single sulfonamide, and even the medicine to stop bleeding is in short supply."
Li Yunsheng also sighed, thinking that China's national power was too weak.
At this time, the doctor on the side said: "Sir, if possible, you'd better provide a few doses of sulfa to the hospital. After all, some of the officers' injuries are really serious," with a hint of pleading in his tone.
Li Yunsheng said softly: "I don't have many in my hands, and I need to give them to my instructors. You must be thinking of other ways."
After hearing Li Yunsheng's words, the doctor sighed and walked out.
At this time, Hao Jinyuan said: "Let's go out and talk, don't delay the rest of the wounded here."
Li Yunsheng nodded, and then walked out of the ward with Hao Jinyuan.
In the corridor of the hospital, Hao Jinyuan asked again: "How are you doing?"
Li Yunsheng said in despair: "We just attacked the Japanese supply convoy yesterday, but more than half of the troops and horses were injured and killed. Even my main assistant is lying unconscious in the hospital."
Hao Jinyuan immediately said: "I heard that you have been doing a good job. You also blew up the Japanese poison gas warehouse a few days ago. How come there were so many casualties last night?"
Li Yunsheng told what happened, and then sighed and said: "In the end, I had no choice but to cut off my strength, send half of the troops to force a breakout, and attract the attention of the Japanese, so that the remaining half of the troops could come back."
Hao Jinyuan didn't know what to say. After all, he was a professional soldier and could only fight conventional warfare. As for fighting behind enemy lines, he didn't understand.
The two were silent for a while, and then Li Yunsheng asked: "Instructor, how is the situation of the 11th Division?"
Hao Jinyuan said sadly: "There are more than 3,000 troops left in the army, including more than 500 lightly wounded. They have been completely disabled and are now resting in the suburbs of Shanghai, waiting for replenishment."
Hearing the tragic situation of the 11th Division, Li Yunsheng was also shocked and quickly asked: "How come there are so many casualties?"
The reason why Li Yunsheng was so surprised was because the 11th Division was Chen Xiucheng's starting unit and his direct lineage. With the style of the generals of the Republic of China, they generally would not let their direct lineage troops suffer such heavy casualties.
Hearing Li Yunsheng's surprised tone, Hao Jinyuan said calmly: "The fighting on the front line is tense. We just retreated to rest for two days. Before we could recruit new soldiers, we were pulled to the front line again. This time we were disabled."
Li Yunsheng really didn't expect it to be like this. It seemed that Chen Xiucheng was really desperate. In order to ensure the overall situation, he didn't even care about his own army. It's no wonder that Principal Chang would use him so highly.
Thinking about the critical moment, Chen Xiucheng didn't even take care of his own troops. It seemed that he had to think of a good way, otherwise if he didn't move for a long time, he might be dragged to the front line.
After that, the two of them talked for a few more words, and then the Zhou brothers came back with a leather bag in their hands.
Li Yunsheng took the bag, then took out a box of medicines from it and handed it to Hao Jinyuan, saying softly: "Instructor, the medicines are here, but I don't have many in my hands, only these."
Hao Jinyuan took the medicine and said with emotion: "It's good to have this box. You don't know how many times I went to the logistics department to get a few sulfonamides and sent people to the black market to buy them, but I couldn't get them. If it weren't for
If I happen to meet you, my two brothers will probably be doomed."
Li Yunsheng said a few polite words, then said goodbye and left.
After returning to the station, Zhang Hao immediately asked: "Section Chief, how is Gang Liu's situation?" Zhang Hao was also very concerned about Gang Liu. After all, the two had worked together for several years and had a good relationship. However, due to the many trivial matters at the station, it was necessary to
Someone was left to deal with it, so Zhang Hao didn't go with him.
After hearing Zhang Hao's words, Li Yunsheng said calmly: "The person is still in a coma, but his life is not in danger."
Zhang Hao let out a breath, and then said: "As long as it's not life-threatening."
Li Yunsheng nodded, and then said: "I guess Liu Gang's condition will get better soon. You should pay more attention to it."
Zhang Hao solemnly said: "Due to the current shortage of personnel, we cannot send special personnel to take care of the wounded. We can only entrust the care to the hospital. But the section chief can rest assured that I have arranged four people to be responsible for the situation of the wounded. If there is any problem, they will
Please notify me promptly."
Li Yunsheng also knew about this situation, so he didn't say anything more, explained a few more words, and went to the Corps Headquarters to resume his duties.
After arriving at the corps headquarters, they saw Chen Xiucheng getting angry at a major general: "I don't care what method you use, bring the supplies up as soon as possible, especially weapons and medicines, there must be no delay."
The major general said with a grimace: "Commander, the Japanese are constantly bombing the railway. The supply of materials in Nanjing is very difficult, and the reserves of supplies are insufficient. Now there are hundreds of thousands of people in Shanghai, and the supplies needed are astronomical every day.
With numbers, ordinary foster care is okay, but with weapons and medicines, my subordinates really have no choice."
Chen Xiucheng said angrily: "Do you know the situation on the front line? Many troops no longer have much ammunition, and because of the lack of medicine, the hospital sees a large number of wounded people unable to treat, so I don't care what method you use, it must be done as soon as possible
Bring the supplies over."
The major general said with difficulty: "But my subordinates have tried their best and communicated with Nanjing many times, but there is no solution. Moreover, Nanjing has not transported weapons here for three consecutive days, and has only replenished some ammunition.
, saying that the weapons reserve has been exhausted, why don't you report this situation to the leader in person."
Hearing that Nanjing had not transported weapons and supplies for three consecutive days, Chen Xiucheng had no choice but to do so. He also knew the inside story, so he said: "You should think more about it and solve the medicine problem first. You can't just watch the wounded being helpless."
Get treatment.”
The major general said solemnly: "I obey," and then hesitated for a moment, then said carefully: "Commander, one of my colleagues told me that Nanjing's reserve of medicines is about to be exhausted. If it continues like this, I probably won't be able to hold on.
How long, you still need to prepare early."
Chen Xiucheng weakly waved his hand, and then the major general said goodbye and left.
After the major general left, Chen Xiucheng saw Li Yunsheng and asked, "What's the matter with you?"
Li Yunsheng immediately reported what happened last night, and then said: "This subordinate failed, please punish me, Commander."
Chen Xiucheng sighed and said: "Fighting behind the enemy's rear is inherently dangerous. It's normal to lose a few times. I'll just give you some more manpower."
Hearing that Chen Xiucheng planned to let him fight behind the Japanese, Li Yunsheng responded with a few words, and then changed the topic and said: "Commander, my subordinates heard some of what I just said. Could it be that the army is very short of weapons."
When Li Yunsheng heard about the lack of weapons on the front line, he had an idea. He was going to ask for orders to smuggle weapons himself, so that he would not have to fight the Japanese. After all, the Japanese had blocked the back road and were fighting in the rear of the Japanese.
, the risk is too great.
Chen Xiucheng sighed and said: "This war has been going on for nearly two months, so our supplies are somewhat stretched, and Nanjing's transportation capacity is also very tight. After all, the Japanese always send planes to bomb our supply lines."
Li Yunsheng immediately said: "Commander, my subordinates know the news that there are a lot of arms and medicines in the concession. If we can get these things over, we can relieve some urgent needs."
Chen Xiucheng said in surprise: "You still have contacts with foreigners."
Li Yunsheng said softly: "There must be some connections, and my subordinates used the concession to avoid Japanese searches before when they attacked the Japanese."
Chen Xiucheng glanced at Li Yunsheng meaningfully, and then said: "You are so courageous. I thought you wouldn't tell me about this."
When Li Yunsheng heard this, he knew that Chen Xiucheng had already guessed this. After all, he had been able to escape unharmed after attacking the Japanese several times. It was inevitable that people would think of the loophole in the concession. Even the Japanese had thought of this. If he hadn't been overconfident,
, and will not suffer the losses of the Japanese.
Looking at Chen Xiucheng's meaningful gaze, Li Yunsheng said helplessly: "Commander, my subordinates have no choice but to do this. After all, the Japanese rear is far away from downtown Shanghai, and the supply lines are all uninhabited areas. For safety reasons
, this subordinate could only do this, but I didn’t expect that the Japanese also found this loophole, and I suffered a big loss.”
Chen Xiucheng said seriously: "I can pretend that I don't know anything about this matter. As long as you don't cause a big mess, just let those foreigners protest in front of the leader." Chen Xiucheng is not a rigid person, so he did not pursue it at all.
