Siheyuan: A Family of Loyal and Brave People

The burning torches emitted warm light, dispelling the darkness and illuminating the entire Jingou Village.

As the Chinese People's Volunteer Army arrived at the battlefield, the dozens of South Korean soldiers remaining in the area had no more power to resist. Those who stayed in the village directly abandoned their weapons and surrendered, and the remaining ones who fled were quickly caught, without a single one escaping.

"Team Leader Hao, Brother Hao!"

The outcome of the battle was decided, He Yuzhu shouted all the way, looking for traces of his companions.

"We're here!"

A familiar voice rang out in the darkness outside Jingou Village, guiding the rescue workers.

He Yuzhu hurriedly took several soldiers to search in the direction of the sound, and soon found Cheng Hao and the other man who were injured and slumped in the ground.

The moment he saw He Yuzhu, Cheng Hao's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, fatigue surged into his heart, his vision went dark and he fainted. After a series of fierce battles, coupled with injuries and blood loss, Cheng Hao's body was already exhausted. At this moment, he could finally rest assured.

……

I don't know how long I was unconscious, but when Cheng Hao woke up, he saw a military green canvas ceiling. He rubbed his eyes, propped up his body with one hand and looked around, and found that he was lying in a tent. There was another patient lying on a simple bed next to him, and it was squad leader Hao.

Seeing that squad leader Hao was fine, Cheng Hao breathed a sigh of relief and then began to try to move his injured thigh.

"Sigh~"

It would have been fine if he didn't move, but as soon as he moved a little, a piercing pain went straight to his forehead, making Cheng Hao grimace in pain.

It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. Even with the super recovery ability, Cheng Hao still needs some time to recuperate.

Without forcibly pulling the wound, Cheng Hao summoned the system with a thought.

[Host: Cheng Hao]

[Strength: 5.7] (The average value for adult males is 5, the limit is 20)

【Speed: 10.2】

【Intelligence: 7.7】

[Endurance: 5.7]

[Skills: 6.7]

【Lucky: 5.7】

[Ability: Dark Vision, Super Recovery]

[Condition: Moderate gunshot wound (expected to recover on the 15th)]

Cheng Hao opened the panel not only to confirm his own status, but also to confirm the time.

Based on the calculation that each attribute point increases by 0.1 for every day spent on the battlefield, he probably stayed in the hospital for three or four days.

The gunshot wound on my leg still hurts, but it's definitely something to be thankful for as it heals in ten days.

The reality of the shooting and the performance in the drama are completely different things.

If a bullet passes through the skin and remains in the body, it will damage the deep muscles and cause subsequent symptoms such as suppuration and infection of the wound. Even if the case is mild, it will take weeks to recover. Severe cases will take several months and may even cause permanent damage or death.

Like being shot multiple times in vital parts of the body, yet still being able to jump around and talk nonsense a few days later.

While Cheng Hao was thinking, the curtain of the tent suddenly opened, and He Yuzhu walked in quickly with a kettle. Seeing Cheng Hao wake up, He Yuzhu's face instantly showed joy, and his voice trembled: "Brother Hao, you finally woke up."

"Shh, Zhuzi, don't disturb the monitor's rest."

Cheng Hao lowered his voice and greeted He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu nodded hurriedly, walked gently to Cheng Hao's bed, took out an enamel jar and poured him a glass of water.

"Zhu Zi, what's the situation now?"

On the night of the bloody battle in Jingou Village, Cheng Hao fainted from exhaustion and had no time to learn about the subsequent situation.

"That day, Ma Ge and I carried Xiao Wang on our backs and left Jingou Village from the north. Not long after we started walking, we ran into the vanguard troops of the 707th Regiment.

Brother Ma and Xiao Wang will retreat to the rear first. I will take them back to Jingou Village to fight the South Korean army, and finally find you near the village entrance.

We are now resting in the temporary field hospital in the rear."

As he spoke, He Yuzhu's face suddenly darkened, revealing a trace of sadness and anger. He clenched his fists and said angrily: "Those South Korean soldiers are really beasts. They didn't even let go of women and children. More than half of the people in Jingou Village were killed or injured. It's really tragic.

Fortunately, the 707th Regiment took care of them all, and helped Jingou Village to avenge itself."

He Yuzhu was still a teenager, at an age with rich emotions. It was inevitable that he would feel sad when he witnessed the enemy's atrocities and the cruelty of war.

Cheng Hao took a sip of water, lowered his head and whispered: "Don't blame yourself too much, we have all tried our best. Even without us, these South Korean troops will still commit violence. Only by driving the invaders back and ending the war can everyone live a good life."

Cheng Hao's words were not only to comfort He Yuzhu, but also to comfort himself. He and squad leader Hao braved the hail of bullets and did so many things at all costs, but they still failed to protect all the villagers. Reality is so cruel.

Both of them were in a low mood. Considering Cheng Hao's injuries, He Yuzhu quickly changed the subject.

"Brother Hao, you and squad leader Hao led the team to break through and killed more than 20 South Korean soldiers. The higher-ups have decided to commend you for your meritorious service."

Hearing about the commendation, Cheng Hao's eyes lit up and the corners of his mouth curled up.

He had risked his life to go to the battlefield in order to win meritorious service so that he could return to the city and live a good life. Now that he had achieved his merit, how could Cheng Hao not be happy?

When the army first entered North Korea, the standards for meritorious service were different throughout the army. However, Cheng Hao and his men were outnumbered and killed more than 20 enemies, so they must have been awarded at least a third-class collective merit.

"We are rewarded and not punished, which is good enough for us."

Cheng Hao and He Yuzhu were startled at first when they heard the cold words from the side. Then they turned around and smiled shyly: "Squad leader, you are awake."

"You guys are having such a great time chatting, how can I, as the squad leader, just sit there and watch?"

Squad leader Hao smiled slightly, then showed a serious expression and warned the two: "You have performed well this time, fought bravely and tenaciously, and dared to fight.

But you must not be too proud.

After all, our problem this time is actually very big.

If we hadn't been in a hurry to catch up with the main force, or if we hadn't been unable to read the map clearly and got lost, we wouldn't have run into the South Korean army and almost been surrounded by them. If our luck had been worse, we would have been doomed, not to mention making a contribution."

Squad leader Hao is a man who has seen many storms and waves. He is not blinded by temporary victory and points out the key problems incisively.

"Squad leader, I'm sorry."

When He Yuzhu thought about how he was holding the team back, a feeling of loss suddenly surged into his heart, and his previous sense of pride was instantly wiped out.

"Captain, the battlefield is complicated and the situation is unpredictable. There is nothing we can do."

Recalling the embarrassment he experienced before falling into a coma in Jingou Village, Cheng Hao calmed down.

If the reinforcements had not arrived in time, he would have really swallowed that glorious bullet and gone to see Zhou Gong.

“Yes, there are some things that cannot be helped.

Then we should do our best to the best of our ability.

We are the kitchen team, but we cannot hold everyone back.

When your injuries are healed, I will train you well so that you won’t fall behind during the next forced march.”

The war has just begun, and there are still many days to go. If you don’t seize the time to improve your abilities, you will definitely suffer in the future.
