Bright Sword: From Northwest Shanxi to Changjin Lake, a Hundred Battles, a Hundred Victories

Chapter 54 Resolutely Obey Organizational Arrangements
After asking about other aspects of Da Biao's group, Chen Ming gained a general understanding.

However, he was seriously injured, and his eyelids started to droop after only a short chat.

Suddenly, a commotion broke out outside.

"You can't go in. The patient needs to rest and shouldn't be disturbed."

Outside the door, a nurse argued vehemently, blocking the door to the ward with her body to prevent others from entering.

The soldiers of the Independent Second Regiment saw a young nurse blocking their way, but they couldn't push her away. They were so anxious that they could only keep saying nice things.

"Commander, please let us see the regimental commander, just one glimpse."

The leading cadre of the Independent Second Regiment had splints on his hands and bandages wrapped around his head, indicating that his injuries were not minor.

"No, the patient needs rest. If so many of you disturb the patient's rest and worsen the injury, what if it happens?"

The young nurse showed no mercy and refused the soldiers' request without hesitation.

The commander instructed that the seriously injured Regiment Commander Chen Ming must be taken good care of.

The nurses also knew that the person staying in this ward was the commander of the "Heroic Regiment of the Battle of Cangyunling".

In order for the main force to eliminate the Sakata Regiment, he personally carried a gun and stood at the most dangerous cliff edge to block the attack, which ultimately resulted in him being seriously wounded.

The nurses held such a hero in high esteem and would not allow anyone to disturb his recovery.

"Commander, please, I'll kneel down and beg you, just let me see the regimental commander once."

"Absolutely not."

The nurse's tone showed no sign of softening.

Annoyed by the noise outside, Chen Ming ordered Da Biao:
"Go, kick each of those noisy people outside. Damn it, I'm not dead, why do so many people need to come and mourn me?"

"What kind of behavior is this, making a scene in the hospital? What if it disturbs the rest of the other injured people?"

"Yes."

Da Biao immediately carried out the order, but just as he was about to open the door and leave, he turned to Chen Ming and asked:
"Commander, should we kick the nurse?"

"."

When people are speechless, they really are speechless.

He didn't know what to say about Da Biao.

Kicking a nurse? I have no idea what he was thinking to ask such a question.

"Do you think we should kick me out too?" Chen Ming closed his eyes, touched his forehead, and sighed.

"Oh, I understand, Captain. Don't kick the nurses."

Seeing Chen Ming's reaction, Da Biao understood what Chen Ming meant and left the ward.

"Brother Da Biao, how's the regimental commander?"

"Brother Da Biao, has the regimental commander woken up yet? When can we go back to the regiment?"

"Comrade Da Biao, what's the current situation with our regimental commander?"

Outside the ward, a group of soldiers from the Second Independent Regiment saw Da Biao come out of Chen Ming's ward and immediately surrounded him to ask what had happened.

The names given to Da Biao also vary.

Those called "Brother Da Biao" are usually prisoners of war who were reformed and joined the Independent Second Regiment, and their habits haven't changed yet.

Those who call him "Brother Da Biao" in a friendly way are the older generation from the district team era.

If someone calls you "Comrade Da Biao," it's either the instructor in the regiment or someone you don't know well; calling them "comrade" is always the right thing to do.

Seeing so many people surrounding him, asking him all sorts of questions, and speaking quite loudly, Da Biao immediately spoke up:

"The commander is awake, but he's getting annoyed by your noise. He's telling me to kick each of you."

"It's my fault, it's my fault, I deserve a beating." A soldier, realizing he had disturbed Chen Ming's rest, immediately slapped his mouth a few times.

The other soldiers and officers breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that Chen Ming was alright, and their faces were full of joy.

"It's good that the regimental commander is alright. I made a mistake and deserved to be kicked. Comrade Da Biao, you carry out the order," an officer said, even sticking his buttocks out as if to say something.

Da Biao didn't hesitate and kicked out, carrying out Chen Ming's order without question. "Wait, you're really going to kick?"

The cadre who was kicked looked miserable. He hadn't expected Da Biao to be so straightforward. He was just making a show of it. The regimental commander didn't really mean for Da Biao to kick them.

"Haha."

Other soldiers familiar with Da Biao couldn't help but laugh when they saw the officer's expression.

Da Biao, that simpleton, does whatever the regimental commander tells him to do. If he's told to kick someone, he really knows how.

Even the nurse standing nearby couldn't help but laugh at Da Biao's dazed and confused appearance.

He also became curious about Chen Ming, wondering what kind of regimental commander he was that the soldiers loved so much.

"Alright, everyone go outside. Don't disturb the commander's rest."

At the ward door, Wang Gui, the highest-ranking officer of the Third Battalion, spoke first.

During this battle, he was bitten on the thigh by a Japanese bullet. Fortunately, it did not break the bone. The Japanese bullet had strong penetrating power, so it only left a hole, which was not too serious.

"Yes."

As soon as Wang Gui spoke, everyone pulled Da Biao outside, ready to ask Chen Ming about his situation in detail.

However, Da Biao did not let them off the hook. After they reached an open space and made sure that the wounded could not be disturbed, Da Biao kicked each of the soldiers who had been making noise.

Only a few soldiers with injuries to their buttocks and thighs survived.

After carrying out Chen Ming's orders, Da Biao told everyone the details of Chen Ming's situation.

After hearing this, everyone was completely relieved.

However, Da Biao's nickname "Wang Er Lengzi" (meaning "Wang the Fool") became popular in the Second Independent Regiment after this incident.

Two days later, the brigade commander visited Chen Ming at the field hospital.

This old subordinate of mine really made me proud this time; he fought bravely and had a keen sense of the battlefield.

He made great contributions in the battle to annihilate the Sakata Regiment.

In the field hospital, the brigade commander walked into the ward. When Da Biao saw that it was the brigade commander, he did not stop him from leaving the ward.

When Chen Ming saw the brigade commander coming to see him, he quickly prepared to get up, but the brigade commander waved his hand.

"You played well this time, you didn't embarrass me, well done."

The brigade commander praised Chen Ming lavishly and seemed very pleased.

Chen Ming was also very proud to be praised like that by the brigade commander, and he was a little embarrassed by the praise.

"Brigade Commander, it's all thanks to the bravery of the soldiers. This is all their achievement, and I'm just one of them."

"Alright, don't try that trick on me," the brigade commander laughed.

"The doctor said you need to rest for a few months. During these months, you will not be able to return to the Independent Second Regiment to command operations. After discussion, headquarters decided to send you back to the rear to rest and study. Further arrangements will be made after you return."

"In addition, ** has read your report on the practical treatment of puppet army prisoners of war and praised you highly. He also wants to meet you when he goes to the rear this time."

"I've come here to ask for your opinion. If you're not willing and want to stay in the base, I won't force you."

The brigade commander explained the purpose of his trip.

Besides being concerned about the health of his old subordinate Chen Ming, he also wanted to seek Chen Ming's opinion.

If Chen Ming is truly unwilling and worried about the base area, they will not force him.

Chen Ming's personal wishes will be given priority.

When Chen Ming heard that he could go to the rear to study, and most importantly, that **had actually read his report, an excited blush appeared on his face.

"I will resolutely obey the organization's arrangements."

Chen Ming's eyes were as firm as when he first joined the Party.

P.S.: Three chapters now, I don't need to tell you to vote, right?
