Chapter 68

  Just then, a loud voice came from the doorway: "Whose little boy is this? He's recovering from illness but still remembers the three main rules of discipline and eight points for attention. Not bad, not bad, this kid has a future."

  It's probably because Li Tie's voice was too muffled, and it couldn't be heard clearly from outside the door. However, the tune was that of "The Three Main Rules of Discipline and Eight Points for Attention", so people outside thought Li Tie was singing "The Three Main Rules of Discipline and Eight Points for Attention". If they knew that Li Tie had privately altered "The Three Main Rules of Discipline and Eight Points for Attention", they would have to take him directly to Er Gou's face, and the only consequence would be being drowned alive by Er Gou's saliva. With such despicable, shameless, and lowly thoughts, how can he be a revolutionary soldier? How can he be in the Eighth Route Army? How can he live in this world? How can...? In short, one sentence: don't live, go die!

  It was Zhang Dazhu, the company commander of the artillery company. Since the artillery company's first battle was defeated by the devils and suffered heavy casualties, Zhang Dazhu had been deeply stimulated. Although he was also injured, he didn't wait for his wounds to heal before leaving the hospital. He led the reorganized artillery company into intense training.

  This was not until he heard that Li Tie was injured, and finally took a little time to visit the health team to see this lucky god. It's really the lucky god, without Li Tie there would be no big guns, without big guns, where would the artillery come from? Without artillery, how could there be this company commander?

  Let's just talk about Little Li, after all Zhang Dazhu has been living in the health team for a longer time, knows more things and recognizes more people.

  Li Tie asked Zhang Dazhu about that beautiful girl.

  "Oh, you're talking about Lin Jing. I know her, she's the ace of the medical team. Anyone who has been hospitalized knows her, she's beautiful and skilled in medicine. You probably don't know this, but I was operated on by Dr. Lin myself, and as soon as the surgery was over, I felt like I was almost ready to be discharged. But I heard that your surgery was also performed by Dr. Lin, wasn't it?"

  Zhang Dazhu told Li Xiaozi everything he knew about Dr. Lin, leaving out no details and adding some of his own imagination.

  As for what Zhang Dazhu said next, Li Tie could no longer hear it, his heart was now filled with thoughts of that beautiful figure.

  The matchmaker was very concerned about this matter, but after all, she had more heart than strength. Just then, in the afternoon, the matchmaker came, with a faint disappointment on her face.

  When she saw Li Tie, she didn't say anything, just asked about Li Tie's wound and whether it still hurt, what he wanted to eat and other non-essential things, and then showed concern for her adopted son, without mentioning the matchmaking at all.

  Don't mention it, Li Tie is also happy to pretend ignorance. This matter was thus settled.

  Li Tie spent the whole day lying in bed, sleeping and eating, almost never going out to exercise. The doctor had instructed him to go out and exercise more, saying it would be beneficial for his wound and speed up his recovery. However, Li Tie just lay in bed all day, sleeping after eating and eating after waking up. Yet, his wound was healing faster than the other soldiers who went out to exercise every day. Within three days, most of his wounds had scabbed over, and even the deepest wound on his back didn't show any signs of inflammation. This made the doctor wonder if he had been wrong in instructing wounded soldiers to go out and exercise.

  Li Tie did two things besides sleeping: fiddling with his rifle and submachine gun.

  Disassemble the shotgun, wipe it clean with a rag, and then reassemble it. Wipe the bullets until they shine, one by one, and load them into the clip. Treat the submachine gun in the same way. As a result, after several days, his originally somewhat old submachine gun became brand new again. As for the shotgun, it had hardly been used at all and was still like a new gun.

  When he was wiping his gun, there were always one or two little nurses beside him, looking at him with envy. Each doctor in the medical team had a shotgun, but not all the nurses had guns, only the head nurse had a king-eight magazine, and the other ordinary nurses didn't have any. Moreover, even the doctors' guns only had ten bullets, which were only for self-defense. Usually, the nurses almost never had the opportunity to shoot, because normally there was at least one reinforced class of soldiers as the medical team's guard unit, so these doctors almost never had the chance to use their guns, and some doctors hadn't even fired a few shots yet. Those little nurses, apart from receiving regular military training for a period of time, usually didn't have many opportunities to touch guns. Moreover, most of the wounded soldiers sent back from the battlefield didn't bring guns with them, and even if they did, it was possible that in the emergency situation at the time, there wasn't even time to touch one.

  Now that Li Tie is here fiddling with guns and ammunition, when the little nurses are not on duty, most people will come to see Li Tie fiddle. So many bullets, almost the entire medical team plus the guard squad's ammunition doesn't have as much! Look at that submachine gun, long magazine, how many bullets can it hold? Once on the battlefield, it's at least comparable to a machine gun!

  Li Tie's gun is never on safety, always in a state of readiness to fire at any moment.

  This is actually a very dangerous practice, and it's easy to accidentally discharge the gun. However, in order to gain an advantage in unexpected events, Li Tie never locks his gun, always loads the bullets, and places them where he can grab them quickly. The muzzle of the gun isn't always facing outward, but it's never pointed at himself. To avoid accidental discharges, Li Tie's revolver is always stored in a gun case, which is then placed under his pillow. His submachine gun hangs on the edge of the bed, and when he lies down, his hand is only about 10 centimeters away from it, ready to grab it at any moment. Although Er Gouzi's squad repeatedly assured him that it was safe in the medical team and there wouldn't be any unexpected events, Li Tie just nodded along, but still did things his own way - you do your thing, I'll do mine.

  This morning when Li Tie woke up, he felt itchy on his back. It seems that the wound is healing, at least a part of it has healed. In recent days, there has been no more burning and weakness on his back like in the first few days. When getting out of bed, except for some pain, he finally had some strength and could get out of bed relatively easily.

  After getting up, someone sent breakfast over.

  Li Tie's breakfast was specially provided, the sick meal of the sanitation team was already very good, but his mother-in-law thought it was not nutritious enough, so she didn't care about the size of the chickens raised at home, killing one every other day. After stewing, they were sent to the ward, and Li Tie couldn't finish eating each time, so the captain of the sanitation team waved his hand and sent them to the kitchen, re-cooking them for another meal the next morning. The problem was solved, and Li Tie ate a small chicken every day, staying in the hospital for several days, and his weight actually increased by several pounds.

  After eating breakfast, Li Tie's eyelids kept jumping non-stop.

  Left eye jumps disaster, right eye jumps wealth. Li Tie comforted himself while paying attention to which eyelid was jumping. Left eye jumps disaster, right eye jumps wealth? Let's see if today is a day for fortune or calamity!

  As soon as I felt it carefully, my heart tightened, *** , and both eyelids jumped quickly! And they jumped very violently!

  He usually doesn't have twitching eyelids, but if he does, something must be up. This is Li Tie's experience from the past year of having twitching eyelids.

  But I usually only have one eyelid jumping, and I rely on this to know whether there is good food at my mother's house, or even what surprise Er Gouzi will give me.

  Today this eyelid is jumping wildly.

  Today is a non-stop jump, Li Tie's heart is annoyed. He really can't think of what to do, his mother-in-law sent delicious food, but it didn't work for the past few days, and he was so tired that he couldn't even open his eyes, finally lying on the bed and dozing off.

  But if you usually fall asleep on the bed in no time, today you can't sleep at all.

  Can't sleep, play with guns.

  Pick up the submachine gun, hey, as soon as the gun is in hand, eyelids don't jump. The gun is fully loaded with bullets, the safety is off, and it can be fired at any time.

  The wine devil often says that wine can boost one's courage, but as soon as Li Tie picks up his gun, he immediately feels like he has become a giant like Taishan Shidatong. Heaven is big, I am second, I am the Eighth Route Army, who am I afraid of? Not convinced, come and let me try shooting you once, don't worry about not being able to knock you down, huh? What? One-on-one duel, okay, I won't bully you either, you use the Type 38 rifle, just use this short little gun. Hmph!

  Li Tiepa sat at the foot of the bed, holding a submachine gun in his arms, with the muzzle pointing at the window. He narrowed his eyes and aimed at the lowest window frame. At this moment, something dark and hollow stretched out from that window frame.

  Gunshot! Li Tielian didn't even think about it and rolled under the bed in an instant.

  At this moment, the window frame fired, a burst of flames flashed, Li Tie's own thigh was bitten by something, damn it, he was shot again.

  Li Tie hadn't even rolled out of bed when the submachine gun in his hand also fired, and the experience gained from the battlefield wasn't for nothing. A burst of bullets shot towards the window frame, instantly shattering it into flying wood chips, a flash of blood light flew up, dyeing the white paper on the window frame red.

  When Li Tiewu fell out of bed, he happened to land on his back, and the wound on his back opened again, a sharp pain came, and he fainted again.

  When he woke up again, he found himself lying on the bed once more. Apart from the waves of pain coming from his legs, there was also a burning sensation on his back.

  Another glance, and beside him was the beauty he had been thinking about day and night. Probably unaware that Li Tie had already woken up, she was still intently reading a book.

  This is great, I fainted and the surgery on my leg was done without even using anesthesia, it was completed during the fainting process.

  Li Tie moved, and the beautiful woman beside him appeared, putting down the book in her hand. A sweet smile immediately stunned Li Tie, his brain went blank, and he felt light-headed. The pain on his body disappeared completely.
