He was already saved, Tang Cheng unconsciously looked left and right at the crowd of people coming in and out around him and the wounded who were more or less bandaged with gauze, and the groggy Tang Cheng spent his first day in this hospital in different alternating between waking up and being in a coma. Tang Cheng was woken up in the middle of the night, the time limit of the anesthetic had passed, and the wound on his ribs alone had been stitched with no less than 5 stitches, plus other wounds on Tang Cheng's body, which was enough to make him unable to sleep at night.

Tang Cheng, who was in pain like a shrimp on the hospital bed, saw Emma, the nun who saved him, again after dawn, seeing that Tang Cheng's complexion looked better, Emma, who brought white porridge, was very happy, "Your complexion looks pretty good, listen to the doctor's words and recuperate for a while should be fine." Emma is a very good chatter, although Tang Cheng's face is still swollen like a pig's head, and he doesn't speak very well, but this does not delay him from being a good listener.

The food in the hospital is really good, there are three meals a day, although they are all white porridge and pickles or green vegetables, but a seriously injured person like Tang Cheng actually has salted duck eggs to eat. Emma and Tan Sinan, who often appear in the hospital, sometimes bring some meat and other food to Tang Cheng, and after such a day every day, Tang Cheng, who is gradually recovering his body, doesn't even want to leave this hospital.

At this time, there was a food shortage in Shanghai because of the war, but there were always some patriotic businessmen who were trying their best to smuggle rice and flour into Shanghai. Every citizen of Shanghai knows that the country is resisting foreign aggression, and many people save a mouthful of food to donate to the hospital where the wounded soldiers are housed. Many students and workers would go to the front line to help transport wounded soldiers and corpses, and they would bring Shanghai's famous food and dishes along the road to wait for the troops to be withdrawn from the line of fire, and more than half of the nurses in the hospital were volunteers who volunteered to help on an ad hoc basis, like Emma Ah and Tan Sinan.

Three days later, after Tang Cheng had completely said goodbye to his life of fever and coma, the hospital where he was located began to accept wounded soldiers who had been withdrawn from the front. From a few wounded soldiers a day at the beginning to a dozen or dozens a day later, at its peak, the hospital where Tang Cheng was located even accepted more than 100 wounded soldiers of the National Army in one day. The wounded soldiers were divided into different areas, the lightly wounded were housed in tents in the courtyard, the seriously wounded who were inconvenient to move like Tang Cheng were placed in wards, and the doctors and nurses in the entire hospital were all in a row, wishing that one person could be used as two people.

More and more wounded people can be evacuated from the front line, and even the corridors, stairwells, and floors of the hospital are full of wounded. The civilian wounded who had been left in the hospital for treatment could not bear the pain and moaning of the wounded soldiers in the hospital all day and night, and more than half of the civilian wounded had been taken home by their families or friends to recuperate, but Tang Cheng was homeless and seriously wounded, so he was left behind by the stubborn Emma.

A large number of wounded people are sent in the hospital every day, and Tang Cheng, who can barely sit up on his own in the hospital bed, also has some understanding of them, Jiangxi soldiers with bamboo hats, Guangxi soldiers in yellow clothes and straw hats, and Sichuan soldiers who speak the Sichuan dialect. Tang Cheng's ward was full of 8 beds, and in his spare time, Tang Cheng would also chat with these wounded people from all over the world, he had been recuperating in this hospital for more than half a month, and he was eager to know what was going on outside.

It's a pity that Tang Cheng seems to have chosen the wrong object to ask questions, Tang Cheng, who doesn't know about the ranks of the troops, doesn't know that Lu Dao and the wounded soldiers in one of his wards are ordinary soldiers, and the officer's hospital is no longer here, so what Tang Cheng heard from their mouths was what was happening in the position, and there was no battle situation he wanted to know. "Turtle son, our fight is a miserable, Lao Tzu's company commander personally led Lao Tzu and the little devils to charge, 300 meters, Lao Tzu rushed 300 meters, Lao Tzu's brothers were all dead, the whole company survived Lao Tzu and the two guys, the machine gun of the little devil on the dog day was accurate."

The wounded soldier of the Sichuan army, whose head was wrapped in gauze, pounded the bed board hard, and from his choked voice, it could be heard that the thing was crying, and the rest of the ward was silent. At this time, the weather had already turned cold, and the wounded soldiers of the Sichuan army were still wearing straw shoes and shorts and shorts when they were sent to the hospital. Although Tang Cheng couldn't recognize all the rifles that the Sichuan army carried on his back, he also knew that the weapons of the Sichuan army were too poor, and it was already good to charge with the Japanese army with such a family and the Japanese army.

The wounded soldier of the Sichuan army was shot in the head, and one eyeball was removed by the doctor, but he himself was still very optimistic, and often laughed that he didn't have to close his eyes when he didn't have his right eye. The hospital is still crowded, and a large number of wounded soldiers are withdrawn from the front line every day to wait for treatment, but there are also wounded soldiers who have recovered from the hospital one after another. In the words of the wounded soldiers of the Sichuan Army, it is called returning from injury, and they may not be able to return to their original troops, but they have only one place, that is, to continue to go to the front line to fight with the Japanese soldiers.

In the conversation with the wounded soldiers, Tang Cheng more or less learned about some front-line battles, Tang Cheng thought that the street he had been stationed at was the worst battle, and only one of the entire miscellaneous companies survived, but now he found that he was lucky, if the miscellaneous company was placed on the front line to meet the elite of the Japanese army, I am afraid that even he would die on the battlefield. The most common occurrence in the accounts of the wounded soldiers is the death squad and the counter-charge, drawing life and death lots, carrying explosive bags and cluster grenades to blow up the Japanese tanks and armored vehicles, which is not the prerogative of the motley company, and there are such things in every unit on the front line.

Xu Erwa, a wounded soldier in Guangxi, was a lucky survivor, "At that time, the Japanese army had already broken through the outer defense line of our position, and we didn't have much ammunition, and the reinforcements said that it would take half an hour to arrive to support us, no way, our battalion commander was the first to rush up with a grenade, followed by the company commander and those veterans, and then even the clerks and recruit dolls in the battalion rushed up, and I followed." When Xu Erwa told about this experience, she didn't cry like the wounded soldiers in Sichuan, slapping the bed and scolding her mother, as if what he said at this time was as simple as eating and dressing on weekdays.

"Baby, don't you listen to him, Erwa is the man in their camp, this dog day carried two kitchen knives and hacked three Japanese soldiers to death, if it wasn't for his company commander pulling him, this dog day is afraid that he will chase into the Japanese position with a kitchen knife." Another Guangxi wounded soldier smiled and exposed Xu Erwa's old bottom, which caused everyone to laugh a lot, making Xu Erwa's already black face turn black and red.

The days passed day by day in such ridicule and small talk, 5 of the 7 wounded soldiers were veterans, Tang Cheng also benefited a lot from the conversation with them, at least he learned a lot of skills to save his life on the battlefield, such as judging the landing point of the shell from the sound of the shell sliding through the air, such as not staying in one position for a long time when shooting at the enemy, learning to change the shooting position at any time to avoid being targeted by the Japanese shooters, and for example, in the interval of the battle, he must learn to collect as many materials and ammunition as possible that can be used, The common people pay attention to the fact that they have food at home and do not panic, but those who are soldiers do not panic when they have bullets on their bodies.

Time passed day by day, nearly a month, the hospital can already hear the roar of cannons in the distance, most of Tang Cheng's injuries have healed, the scar left by the bayonet on his thigh has been scabbed, the bridge of his nose that was smashed by the Japanese soldier's head hammer is the fastest recovery, and the puffiness on his face has long subsided, and Tang Cheng at this time has once again returned to the original appearance of the original little white face. It is said that Tang Cheng's current injuries are enough to be rushed to the tent by the hospital to recuperate, but Emma tried her best to stop and went to the director of the hospital, and I don't know how Emma negotiated, Tang Cheng, whose rib wound had not yet recovered, was left behind, and continued to live in a ward with the wounded soldiers.

In fact, Tang Cheng had long wanted to leave this hospital, and since the fourth day since a large number of wounded soldiers were sent to this hospital, there would be crippled wounded people committing suicide in the hospital every day, and every time many people would be silent for half a day, including the wounded and medical staff. The hospital has made careful arrangements, but there are still disabled wounded soldiers who kill themselves, medical staff are also people, and when people will be negligent, they can't prevent the wounded soldiers who are bent on death, and a cloth belt, a nail, and even the hairpin on the head of female medical staff are all instruments used by the wounded soldiers to end their lives.

Living in such a sad environment, Tang Cheng often thinks of the company commander who was blind, the brute bull squad leader who rushed to the Japanese tank with an explosive bag, the ambulance soldier who dragged his broken leg to shoot at the Japanese army, and the veterans who pounced on the Japanese army with grenades. The faint pain of the wound could not withstand the pain in Tang Cheng's heart, listening to the miserable howls of the wounded soldiers and those things on the battlefield all day long, which made Tang Cheng's heart very uneasy, it had been a month since he left the church, and he couldn't wait to go back to the church to see.

The church where Robert lived for many years is Don Town's home, where there is Robert's room, Robert's ashes, and the memory of Don Town. Tang Cheng, who was already suffering from a mild mental breakdown, wanted to hide in his home immediately, and only by hiding in his room would there be no more gunfire and shouts of killing in his ears. The blood that has been appearing in the dream will dissipate, and when Emma and Tan Sinan came to see him with food again, Tang Cheng quietly told Tan Sinan the phone number of Hou Xiaotian's house, and he hoped that this good friend of his would come to pick him up.
