Chapter 255 After the Victory
Chapter 255 After the Victory
When the entire battlefield was cleared and the soldiers had finished finishing off all the Japanese, after the last gunshot, everyone began to cheer. They had won another victory, and it was a resounding victory.
While everyone was cheering, there was not much joy on Lu Cheng's face. In this battle, five soldiers of the expeditionary force were killed, six were seriously injured, and more than twenty were slightly injured.
The British army also lost four men, three were seriously injured, and more than a dozen were slightly injured.
After all, the Japanese army was well-trained and had very accurate shooting skills. There were always some soldiers who did not have time to dodge when being shot and were hit and killed by the Japanese bullets.
The battlefield was so large, and Lu Cheng was not a god, so it was impossible for him to take care of every soldier under his command. Fortunately, the soldiers who had been trained by Lu Cheng for half a year did not suffer any casualties, which also proved the results of Lu Cheng's training.
Doctors at the airport hospital immediately began treating the injured, but the conditions of several seriously injured were so serious that even the airport doctors were helpless.
Lu Cheng immediately stood up, took off his military uniform and put on a white coat: "I will treat them and perform surgery."
"Major Lu, even the most professional doctors at our airport can't help these seriously injured people. Can you really do it?"
"Colonel William, if there had not been a war, I would have been the best doctor. Moreover, if these seriously injured soldiers could not receive timely treatment, they would surely die. Let me do it!"
Just when Lu Cheng had just returned from the battle, Catherine took several photos of Lu Cheng. Seeing Lu Cheng put on a white coat and said these words, Catherine became more curious about this man: "Lu, can you still perform surgery?"
"Of course, I won't joke about the lives of soldiers."
"Can I witness you operating on a patient?"
"No problem, but you have to do a good job of disinfection as well."
There were a total of six seriously injured soldiers in critical condition, including three Chinese soldiers and three British soldiers. For two of them, bullets were only one or two centimeters away from their hearts. The situation was very complicated and the doctors here did not dare to perform surgery.
After Lu Cheng checked the conditions of all the seriously injured soldiers, he immediately took out a small bottle of pills from his arms and gave them to each of the injured soldiers. He then took out some silver needles and quickly performed acupuncture on several seriously injured soldiers.
Several British doctors were all surprised: "Hey, is it really okay to stick such a long needle into your body? Are you saving people or killing people?"
"Shut up, no one can disturb me until I finish my treatment!"
Several doctors immediately fell silent. This man was a tough soldier who had just come down from the battlefield. He was holding a submachine gun and reaping lives just a moment ago. The murderous aura and momentum all over his body were beyond the doctors' ability to withstand.
However, soon a little nurse exclaimed: "Look, Tom and Thorpe's bleeding has stopped, and Wales' bleeding has also begun to slow down. Oh, my God, this must be a miracle from God."
Catherine on the side stared at Lu Cheng with shining eyes, and felt that Lu Cheng was radiating light all over at this moment.
Several British doctors were also shocked by the scene before them. They had tried everything they could but were unable to stop the bleeding of the seriously injured soldiers. They could only watch their lives slip away.
At this moment, the Chinese major only used a few pills and injected a few needles to stop the bleeding of the seriously injured soldiers.
At this moment, all the doctors held their breath, hoping for a miracle to happen.
"Scalpel... scissors... tweezers... hemostats!"
Several nurses woke up as if from a dream and immediately started to get busy, cooperating with Lu Cheng's treatment.
As each surgical instrument came into Lu Cheng's hands, it was immediately used to clean the wounds of the seriously injured, remove bullets, and suture the affected areas. His speed was extremely fast and very precise. He was always able to complete those complicated operations with the smallest incision and the most direct and simple method.
After finishing the first operation, Lu Cheng immediately turned to the second patient. The young nurse next to him had already brought the second set of surgical instruments and was looking at Lu Cheng's profile with admiration.
Then, the third and fourth channels...
Lu Cheng treated the seriously injured one after another, sutured their wounds, and their vital signs began to gradually recover.
When Lu Cheng finished performing all the operations and treating all the seriously injured, applause broke out in the operating room.
At this moment, all the doctors regarded Lu Cheng as a god.
"My god! You are the best surgeon I have ever seen."
"Lu, are you really a soldier?"
Lu Cheng walked to the door of the operating room and took off his mask: "Okay, I'll leave it to you guys next. I need to rest."
When Lu Cheng walked out of the operating room and sat on a chair to rest, Catherine took another photo of Lu Cheng. Then she found a towel and wiped the sweat off Lu Cheng: "Lu, you are the greatest Chinese soldier I have ever seen."
"Catherine, please don't use the word 'great' to describe me. Those warriors who died outside are greater."
Catherine's heart surged, and she immediately took out a small notebook for reporters and began to record: "He held a submachine gun in one hand and fought against the hateful invaders, just to protect the innocent behind him. He held a scalpel in the other hand and fought against death, just to save those lovely and respectable soldiers. Even if he faced the endless darkness alone, he would bring light to the world.
In him, I saw iron and blood, light, kindness and compassion. He seemed to be a messenger from God, who came to the world to dispel darkness, protect justice, and welcome the dawn…”
A celebration banquet still has to be held in the evening, as the soldiers have just experienced a great battle and need rest.
William also asked the chefs in the kitchen to use their special skills to make delicious steaks, sausages, barbecue, cream puffs, etc. to entertain the victorious soldiers. Each soldier also received a glass of whiskey, a glass of red wine, a portion of chocolate, a bag of candy, a box of cigarettes and other supplies.
Everybody was cheering and rejoicing. Although the British and the expeditionary force did not speak the same language, they sang their hometown tunes, had a big party and danced.
Lu Cheng watched Milong singing a Northeastern duo, Bula singing Liu Hai Kanqiao, and Shepizi singing a tune he made up and duetting with the Englishman's Scottish folk song.
The cheerful atmosphere in the field made everyone forget the shadow of war and the uncertain future.
Even Meng Fanle, who was always bad-mouthed, was looking at everyone with a silly smile, admiring their clumsy dancing moves, out-of-tune songs and operas.
However, Lu Cheng feels that they are all the best singers and opera singers, because every word they sang is filled with deep love for their hometown.
Catherine came to sit next to Lu Cheng without knowing when, and looked at the soldiers gathered below, and smiled involuntarily: "Lu, language doesn't seem to be a barrier to communication. Look how happy they are playing. I bet that many British soldiers have become friends with you Chinese soldiers."
"I believe this. Look over there." As he spoke, Lu Cheng casually pointed at two guys who were arm in arm not far away.
One of the two men was a veteran of the Sichuan Army, and the other was a British soldier. They were clinking their glasses and talking about something.
The Englishman said with a sad face: "My beloved girl is getting married, but the groom is not me. When I finish the war, I will definitely get her back!"
Yao Ma was surprised: "What? You have landlords in the UK too? And they occupied your land? You are so pitiful, brother. But you are still not as miserable as me. My hometown..."
The two people were chatting on completely different channels, but the more they talked, the more they got along: "Brother, it's not easy for us, let's do it!"
"cheers!"
Catherine looked at the two men curiously, then turned to look at Lu Cheng: "Lu, does your soldier speak English? What are they talking about?"
"It doesn't matter what they talk about, they are all sad people."
Catherine didn't seem to understand what Lu Cheng meant, but she quickly changed the subject: "Lu, can I ask you to dance with me?"
"sure…"
