The War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression Begins in Songhu

Chapter 41: Seven Newcomers? (Please vote for the follow-up reading)

...In the modern dimension, many people have been complaining about the five main forces of the National Army. They were quickly defeated by our army's millet and rifles, which is quite true.

In fact, their combat effectiveness is quite good, as they were all fed with the flesh and blood of the Japanese devils during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.

Later, when they fought against our army, they performed poorly. The key reason was that the essential meaning of war had changed, and there was no way to make them fight at the risk of everything.

...Excerpt from Hu Biao's Diary Collection...

In the following time, Hu Biao learned more about the situation from Zhu Cong's voice which was still sobbing.

Today is October 10, 9. More than a month has passed since he fainted at Position No. on the left wing of Luodian and was teleported back to the modern dimension.

After Zhu Cong carried him to the frontline hospital, the doctor took one look at his physical condition.

They said he had serious internal injuries and could not be saved.

However, Hu Biao's physical condition improved significantly day by day without taking any medication, and after half a month he was almost fully recovered.

The only problem is that this body is like a living dead and can't wake up no matter what.

If Zhu Cong had not kowtowed and begged the doctors and nurses, he would have been allowed to continue lying in the corner of the hospital, with doctors and nurses coming to visit him every day and feeding him some porridge every day.

Hu Biao's body had been thrown out of the hospital long ago, and it was unknown how long he had been starving to death.

Of course, it’s not that the doctors and nurses in the front-line hospitals are cruel, but there are an astonishing number of wounded soldiers waiting for their treatment, and the hospital beds are in serious shortage.

Hu Biao's condition is similar to brain death, and they don't have the time to treat him slowly, nor can they cure him.

During the forty-plus days that Hu Biao was in a coma, the development of the war on the Songhu battlefield was exactly the same as the history that Hu Biao learned in the modern dimension, with no changes at all.

For example, Luodian had already been completely lost.

Now that the Japanese army has landed, their spearhead has reached the Yunzaobang line in the Magic City.

They have an army of five infantry divisions, and with the navy and air force, the total strength has long exceeded 20. Heavy equipment such as aircraft, warships, heavy artillery, tanks, etc. have also been deployed in large numbers.

In order to stop the Japanese, the National Army continued to mobilize troops from the rear, and the total force reached 70.

Therefore, at present, both sides have invested heavily in the battle, and the battle scene and casualties are more massive than in Luodian; this is also the fundamental reason why there are so many wounded in this front-line hospital.

The information Zhu Cong provided above contained so much information that Hu Biao lost his mind after hearing it.

After seeing this situation, Zhu Congming obviously misunderstood something. After hesitating for a moment, he still weakly persuaded:
"Commander Hu, why don't you stop blaming Li Shushen and Commander Li for not sending reinforcements to our special forces company?

Because there was no reinforcement at the division headquarters at the time, not long after the incident, Division Commander Li personally led the guard company into battle. One of his hands was blown off by the Japanese and he is now lying in another hospital.

The new commander of our 67th Division is Huang Wei, and he's said to be a talented student who just returned from Germany after studying abroad. I don't know if you've heard of him."

"I don't blame Commander Li. If I have to blame anyone, I blame those damn Japanese devils." Hu Biao said.

As for the new Commander Huang, Hu Biao had certainly heard of him.

The bald principal's future trusted henchman, who would later lead one of the five main forces of the Nationalist army on the Huaihai battlefield, was surrounded and captured alive by our army, and was only released after being imprisoned for 75 years...

******
After chatting with Hu Biao for a while.

Zhu Cong finally realized that he should ask a doctor to come and check on his commander Hu to see if he was fully recovered.

He immediately went to find a doctor excitedly, but before leaving he said that the doctors were extremely busy and might not be able to come for a while.

This is a good thing. Hu Biao can just go to the hospital to look for Zhou Kun, Zhang Wei, Gao Yi, Wang Peng and other four partners who fought side by side with him last time.

Although it had only been a month, Hu Biao was already eager to see them and had a lot to say. Unfortunately, after walking around the hospital, Hu Biao didn't see any trace of any of the four people.

This made him think of a new idea: Could it be that any traverser who died in battle in this plane, or died due to other reasons, would never be able to travel through this plane again in the future?

Thinking of this, Hu Biao's heart was filled with regret.

The main thing is that the last time they were together, they didn't leave each other any mobile phone numbers or anything, not even a certain signal or Little Penguin number.

The Chinese nation in the modern dimension is so big, how could we meet by chance again in the future?
Fortunately, after wandering around, Hu Biao did not gain nothing. Mainly, he discovered that among these wounded, there were six people who should have traveled from the modern dimension.

It must be said that these people are quite clever.

After they were suddenly transported to this dimension, they did not foolishly shout loudly and expose their identities, but tried their best to pretend that everything was normal.

However, Hu Biao was able to recognize them easily due to their modern characteristics.

It's a pity that we don't know what professions they are engaged in in the modern plane. Are they PLA veterans like Wang Peng who can display good combat effectiveness after a little adaptation?

Hu Biao couldn't easily see these more complicated things.

But even so, Hu Biao did not choose to go up to them immediately, introduce the relevant situation to them first, and then ask about their situation.

The main reason is that the environment is too noisy now, and it is not the right time to talk.

The more crucial point is that he understood that the mysterious big hand must have subsequent actions to make them gather together quickly.

So, there is no need to rush this matter.

Things developed just as Hu Biao had expected. After waiting for at least half an hour, a doctor who looked like he had just come out of the operating room gave Hu Biao a rough physical examination.

Although he was very surprised by Hu Biao's strange illness, the doctor was too busy and had no time to care more.

He took out a piece of white paper with a red seal and wrote quickly while muttering:

"Second Lieutenant Hu, there's nothing wrong with your body. As for why you were unconscious for so long and suddenly woke up? Frankly, I don't know.

But that’s not important. You are from the 67th Division, right?

It just so happens that your division is currently resting in the area behind Jiangqiao, and is in dire need of manpower after the series of battles. I will issue you a certificate for discharge and return to the unit, so please return and report."

Faced with such an explanation, Hu Biao naturally had no intention of objecting.

The doctor remembered something and added:
"Oh, right! Please wait for a moment at the hospital entrance. There are seven other wounded soldiers from the 67th Division who have just been discharged today. You can go back together to report in."

"Seven? Could it be that there is another time traveler? I haven't even found out who he is. This guy is hiding so well. He is really a talented person." After hearing this, Hu Biao was amazed.

He soon got the answer to the above doubts.

Hu Biao and Zhu Cong waited at the hospital entrance for about twenty minutes with their modest luggage; then seven unlucky guys with worried faces appeared in front of them.

That sad look on his face was very similar to Hu Biao and the others who had just traveled through time last time.

When he saw the seven people, Hu Biao knew why there was one person he hadn't noticed before; because that person was actually an old lady who often danced square dance in the square, the common type of old lady who danced square dance.

Hu Biao, who instinctively thought that all time travelers were men, didn't pay attention to any women just now.

Of course, Hu Biao has no opinion on the square dancing aunties. They have worked hard for half their lives and are enjoying a happy old age after retirement. Dancing and exercising are actually good as long as they don't disturb others.

The key point is, this is the Battle of Shanghai. That mysterious being arranged for a square dance aunt to travel through time and space to participate? Isn't this bullshit...
