Chapter 003 Sudden Air Attack
The morning after Dong Limao woke up, with Daolanxiang's support, he walked out of the ward. He was wearing a lieutenant uniform that Zhu Yongsheng brought for him from the military commander of the regiment headquarters. He didn't know where he had gone to the fashionable summer uniform he wore in Songshan. He also asked Daolanxiang if he had seen an old black and white photo of a captain's uniform.
Daolanxiang's answer was: "When I saw you, there was nothing except the bandage on my chest. You looked like a sleeping baby who was just born and had nothing to wear."
He also learned from Daolanxiang that he was shot at one of his left and right chests, and his right chest was shot through. Fortunately, the bullet in his left chest failed to hit the center. Almost all the doctors and nurses thought he would not live long, but he miraculously survived.
Many military tents were built in the yard of the hospital, which were used as temporary wards. Many wounded soldiers sat outside the tent in groups, some playing cards, some smoking, and some were joking with girls wearing various Dai costumes.
The hospital has two large tiled houses with two stories high, both of which are old-fashioned buildings with civil structures, forming an L-shaped shape next to each other. If it weren't for the grass-green tents in the yard and the officers and soldiers wearing military uniforms, Dong Limao would have thought he was on vacation in a foreign land.
The sky is very blue, and the morning sun is very dazzling, and it is hot on the face.
Dong Limao looked up at the sky and wanted to take a deep breath, but the wound on his chest was so stuffy that it made him feel a little difficult to breathe.
"In my hometown in Shandong, this season is still a bit chilly, but it's so hot here that it's unbearable." Dong Limao suddenly thought of his parents. Are they looking for him at this time? Or are they waiting in front of the hospital bed? They never thought that their son had traveled through time for 62 years and became great-grandfather. Could it be that he would die like great-grandfather in two years?
Thinking of death, Dong Limao felt extremely sad. What else is more terrifying than knowing his death alone?
Dong Limao shed two tears silently, these two tears shed for his death in a foreign land in two years.
"Company Commander Dong, in a few days, it will be our traditional Dai Water Splashing Festival. This year is different from previous years and will be very special." Dao Lanxiang saw Dong Limao crying, thinking that he was sad when he saw the wounded in the yard, so she wanted to say something happy.
"Oh, what's special?" Dong Limao asked slowly on the steps.
"Because so many soldiers are celebrating the Water Song Festival with us this year." Dao Lanxiang also sat next to him, tilting her head and smiling.
The two dimples on her cheeks were very charming. Dong Limao was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but blurt out: "Ru Shuang, you are so beautiful."
Dao Lanxiang blushed and put away her smile: "Is this person named Rushuang your lover?"
"Ah? Oh...she is a classmate of mine before." Dong Limao could not help but think of Bai Rushuang when facing such a familiar face. He apologized awkwardly: "I'm sorry, Nurse Knife, you look so much like her."
"Since you woke up, you always say something inexplicable, and even forgot the brothers of the Ninth Company. You are obviously Dong Jiacheng, but you say that you are Dong Limao. By the way, what else do you say about time travel? Company Commander Dong, what is time travel? Is it a tactic for your army to fight war?" Dao Lanxiang asked curiously.
Dong Limao didn't know how to explain it, so he smiled bitterly before saying, "You won't believe it even if I said it. My name is Dong Limao. Dong Jiacheng is my great-grandfather. I live in the 21st century..." Speaking of this, the harsh air defense alarm interrupted him.
"Company Commander Dong, go to the basement! The Japanese's plane is here!" Dao Lanxiang said, helping Dong Limao with both hands.
I saw the injured nurses and Dai girls in the yard running towards an entrance to the left of the house. Suddenly, the yard was in chaos and the people in the house began to run out.
Dao Lanxiang supported Dong Limao and walked down the steps quickly, and Zhu Yongsheng and Zhang Dali ran over panting.
"Company Commander, go to the basement!" Zhu Yongsheng said, and with Zhang Dali, he raised Dong Limao's arm and hurriedly ran to the basement under the house.
"Plane Commander Zhu, Company Commander Dong has given you two!" After Dao Lanxiang said that, she turned around and ran into the building.
Dong Limao shouted: "Ru Shuang! Come back quickly! Dangerous..."
I heard Daolanxiang leave a sentence: "There are many seriously injured inside, I must go in and help!"
At this time, the roar of the plane motor came. Dong Limao looked in the direction where the sound of the plane came. He saw more than a dozen planes flying low like a dozen big birds, so low that Dong Limao could see clearly the pilot on the plane in front was smiling.
"Look down!" Zhu Yongsheng roared, and Zhang Dali and Zhang Dali pulled Dong Limao to the corner on the right side of the stairs and pressed them down. A string of bullets shot at their position just now, only two or three steps away from them. Then, a huge explosion continued to sound, shocking Dong Limao's body crawling on the ground as if it was climbing on a spring, bounced up a few centimeters. Then, he also heard the screams of the woman, and several pieces of broken tiles and countless dust fell to his back, as if the whole world was in a violent explosion, screams and the roar of the plane.
Dong Limao was pressed tightly by the two of them. He couldn't even cover his ears with his hands. Suddenly, he thought of Daolanxiang running into the house. After the first round of bombing and shooting, he pulled his hands out from Zhu Yongsheng and Zhang Dali on both sides, turned over and stood up, and didn't care about the lives and deaths of the two people around him. He felt his head buzzing, and he ran to the two-story tiled house that had been blown down half of the blow. He had only one thought, that was to save Daolanxiang.
"Company Commander..." Zhu Yongsheng's shout came from behind him, but he ran up the steps and rushed into the house without looking back.
"Ru Shuang..." Dong Limao shouted, as if he suddenly realized that the other party didn't understand who he was calling, or that he remembered that the person he wanted to save was not called Ru Shuang, so he immediately changed his words: "Nurse Dao... Dao Lanxiang..." He grabbed a wounded person running out and asked, "Did you see Nurse Dao?" The other party shook his head, shook him away and ran out, so he had to walk in again.
At this time, the house was covered with smoke and dust, and almost nothing was visible in front of him. He could smell the choking smell of gunpowder in his nostrils. Dong Limao groped in and walked in, shouting, "Nurse Dao... Dao Lanxiang..." From him, the wounded and medical staff ran out from time to time. As long as they were wearing white clothes, he would always catch them.
Dao Lanxiang heard Dong Limao's shouting. She was carrying a wounded person on her body and walked out of a ward with great difficulty. Dong Limao's shouting made her very happy, but worried. She was about to respond, when suddenly, a piece of wood fell from her head, which hit the head of the wounded person she was carrying, pressing her down.
