Beacon 1937

Afternoon, March [-], [-]

The wounded soldiers sent to Zhiru Southeast Medical College were all treated urgently by the front-line temporary field hospital. Soldiers who could continue to fight were left there, while those who could not recover temporarily or lost the ability to return to the front line were sent to the hospital. here.

Aiwen got the Red Cross armband, but it was only temporary, and now there is no extra time for him to go through the formal procedures to join the Red Cross, and then he was sent to deal with those severely wounded soldiers who had repeated illnesses.Although he has treated many emergency patients in the United States, these soldiers who were wounded by grenades and penetrated by bullets often had to ask nurses to inject them with morphine to relieve their pain...

Since the start of the war yesterday, both the Chinese army and the Japanese army have continued to increase their troops, and the flames of war have spread. They can gradually hear the sound of artillery fire from afar.Wounded soldiers were brought in continuously, and only during the temporary ceasefire at night did the hospital calm down a bit, and Ai Wen took advantage of that gap to see Yinglan's mother.

"Doctor Abel! Have you seen Dr. Yang?" Head nurse Zhang hurried over with a first aid kit on her back and asked anxiously.

"Dr. Yang and Dr. Luo are both in the operating room. What happened?" Ai Wen asked, taking off his stethoscope.

"Another division was added from above, and that Master Shao sent a company over, saying that he wanted us to send a doctor and some nurses, and they would cover us to go to the front-line occupation hospital."

"Aren't there enough frontline healthcare workers?"

"Yes, and I heard that a doctor died..." Head Nurse Zhang whispered to Ai Wen, as if she didn't want other nurses to know about it.

"Understood...then I'll go!" As Ivan said, he picked up the medical kit with the Red Cross logo on the side and put it on his shoulders.

"Wait! Doctor Abel! You can't go. You are just a doctor who temporarily supports us. You have not officially joined the Red Cross. We can't let you take risks." Head nurse Zhang stopped in front of him anxiously.

"Head nurse, you can't find any other doctor to go to now, except me." Ivan said solemnly to him.

"No, no! Doctor, you can't go!"

How could head nurse Zhang's height of [-] could stop a young man who was nearly [-]?Instead, she was dragged out by Ivan's arm.

"Doctor Abel! Where are you going?" Unexpectedly, Butler Hall came in with two bags full of food.

Since Mrs. Hall's breakfast is very popular here, Ivan asked Hall's housekeeper to bring as much food as possible when he came to deliver food, so that the medical staff and wounded soldiers in the hospital can have a mouthful of delicious food.

"Well... I'm going to the front line." Ai Wen's eyes wandered with guilt.

"What! No! You can't go! If you go to the front, how can I explain to the young master?" Butler Hall was so anxious that he just wanted to grab him, but he was holding something in both hands, and he didn't know where to put it, so he could only stop him. in front of.

Seeing this, Aiwen couldn't help but sighed helplessly in his heart. He paused, and then said firmly: "Housekeeper Hall, please help me bring a word to Frank... This is my mother's hometown, and half of my body is preserved. Chinese blood! As a doctor, but also as a human being, I should help them!"

After finishing speaking, Ai Wen dragged head nurse Zhang, bypassed the dumbfounded old housekeeper and walked out.

Outside the hospital, three nurses who volunteered to go to the front line had already boarded a military truck, while several soldiers waiting for them by the side of the car were staring at Ivan in surprise.This kind of gaze is as ordinary as drinking water to him who has long been accustomed to it.

"Company Commander, I kept you waiting. Let's set off now!" Ai Wen learned a new skill during the day he stayed in Zhiru Southeast Medical College, which is to identify the ranks of these soldiers. This was a soldier last night. Taught him.And this soldier is wearing an officer's uniform, with a lieutenant's epaulets on his shoulders, and he must be the company commander.

Head nurse Zhang gave Ai Wen a hard look before boarding the truck... just because Ai Wen didn't listen to her advice, and even pulled her arm sorely.

And Ivan sat opposite the head nurse with a nonchalant smile.

When the car started, Butler Hall suddenly chased him out: "Doctor Abel! Doctor Abel!"

"Go back! I'll be fine! I promise! Tell Frank! I'll go back!" Ivan waved at him and shouted, gradually losing sight of the butler.

"You are really crazy." At this time, head nurse Zhang suddenly said to him.

"Well, my best friend said I was a lunatic." However, Ai Wen replied with a smile.

"You are really desperate. It's not good to run anywhere, but you have to run to the front line!"

"Aren't you volunteering to go to the front?"

"We are different from you! This is our motherland, China's territory, of course we must try our best to protect her! And you, Dr. Abel, an American doctor! And you are an American doctor who has not officially joined the Red Cross. This muddy water? Those foreigners have already hid in the French Concession, but you are fine, don't hide behind, just run forward!" The head nurse said while shaking her head.

"I also want to join the Red Cross! But you don't have time to go through these procedures for me." Aiwen looked innocent.

"Okay! Okay, okay! When this is over, I will be the first to recommend you to join the Red Cross." The head nurse reluctantly compromised.

"Okay! It's a deal!"

"A word is settled!"

In an instant, the two of them looked at each other and held each other as if in reconciliation. However, at this moment, a heart-pounding and frightening sound resounded throughout Shanghai... the air defense siren resounded across the sky, and the sound continued!

"Get down...!"

The company commander let out a loud roar, and everyone fell to the ground.

In the next second, several fighter jets roared past their heads, and soon, there were several explosions in the distance!Followed by several times!Fighters flying the Japanese flag buzzed in the air like wasps, and bombs fell one after another.

Although this area was not bombed, all the people on the street panicked and ran with the flow of people, and many people ran out of their homes after packing their luggage.

It wasn't until those terrifying gods of death flew away and the air defense siren ended that people stopped in panic and were still in shock.

"There...the place that was bombed just now seems to be the Bund..." At this moment, someone suddenly said tremblingly.

"Why...why are you bombing there! It's not a battlefield! It's not a military zone! They're all ordinary people!" The head nurse was terrified and indignant.

Even Aiwen lost his usual composure, staring in shock at the black smoke repeatedly rising into the distance.

"Drive! Let's go!" However, the company commander patted the car window and ordered the soldier sitting in the driver's seat to drive.

"Wait! Wait! We should go there! There must be a lot of people in need of treatment!" The head nurse shouted while pulling the company commander.

"Do you know what's going on now! The soldiers ahead need you! We need you! If we all fall, Shanghai will really be over!"

The company commander's words made everyone present quiet down, and the car was restarted again.The head nurse silently wiped away the tears that couldn't help but burst out of her eyes, and Ai Wen could only clenched his fists tightly, unaware that his nails were deeply pinched into his flesh.

The car was eerily quiet, and everyone stopped talking, as if a storm was brewing in their hearts.

When they arrived at the field hospital...the first ambulance squad of the Red Cross, Ai Wen finally understood what the company commander said.
