Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander
Chapter 1764 - 1158: Opportunity (2)Chapter 1764: Chapter 1158: Opportunity (2)
I’m telling you all this because I hope that while you’re lowering your guard, you’ll also pay attention and observe. No matter what our relationship used to be, right now I genuinely hope you can live well.
Chuxia nodded in agreement. "Okay, I know what to do."
"There’s something I need to explain to you too..." After a brief hesitation, Huang Suai looked seriously at Chuxia. "Strictly speaking, Lin Wenhang hasn’t been a very qualified second brother, but his shortcomings are all because of me.
If at the beginning I really did have the intention of using him when I got together with him, then after everything we’ve been through, I truly feel I’ve found the right person.
It’s just that Lin Wenhang has always minded the estrangement between you and him before. He really wants to make up for it, but he doesn’t know how. He might not say anything, but I can see it.
So when I found out you were coming, I specially went to talk to Division Commander Zhou about the arrangements for you. Maybe Division Commander Zhou misunderstood my intentions a bit—his expression at the time really was somewhat disdainful. It’s not that I’m overthinking it; his face said it all.
Afterward, I mulled it over and felt I had been a bit unnecessary, but as for going to him to explain, I just can’t do it. I hope you can help tell Division Commander Zhou for me that showing my face in front of him really isn’t because I still have some designs on him.
Heh..." Huang Suai shook her head with a bitter smile, looking utterly helpless. "I hope I’m just overthinking it, but his attitude toward me these past two days really makes it hard not to think too much."
"Alright, I’ll talk to him about it." Pausing, Chuxia finally voiced the question she’d been holding in all day. "Didn’t they say before that every battle had extremely low casualties? But looking at things today, even though no one died, there were quite a lot of injuries. Is today a special case, or has it always been like this and our criteria for ’minimal casualties’ are just different?"
"It should be that the standards are different. For the front line, this level of casualties is extremely low. Compared to previous battles, today’s counts as a medium-scale one.
Even though it was a surprise attack from the enemy, because we’d made full preparations, they didn’t gain the slightest advantage. We have 102 lightly wounded, 15 seriously wounded, and 3 critically wounded. The enemy’s numbers should be three to five times ours. In addition, they should also have fatalities.
So, strictly speaking, we really did win a beautiful victory. And all of this is indeed because your Division Commander Zhou has sharp vision and strong leadership. So aside from the different standards, there’s absolutely nothing exaggerated in the way it’s being described.
"I get it..." Chuxia sighed, her mood a bit low. "I always thought that ’basically no casualties’ meant literally no injuries and no deaths. Turns out, on the front line, light wounds don’t count as wounds..."
Huang Suai went on to clear it up for her. "Simple bandage-level injuries don’t count. If it were in the old days, let alone bandage-level injuries, even the severely wounded had to hold out until the end of the battle. The kind of requirement that young soldier had—getting operated on without anesthesia and wanting to go back to the front line—used to be extremely common."
"Got it." Forcing out a faint smile, Chuxia’s expression then immediately fell again. "I hate war!"
"I hate it too. I believe no normal person would like war. But..." Huang Suai shook her head, helplessness flickering in her eyes. "This isn’t something we can control. This world has never lacked pacifists, and it’s never lacked war maniacs either!"
"That’s true." Chuxia nodded in agreement. Even in the era she came from, they lived in peaceful times, but there has never been a shortage of countries being invaded!
So at its core, war is only a means, not an absolute solution! A prosperous country, strong people, and unity are the best way to keep a region safe!
...
"Seriously, you can directly move into the internship doctor phase?" Zhao Bingbing stared at Chuxia in disbelief. "I always knew you were impressive, but I never imagined you’d be this impressive. No way, from now on I’m sticking with you. I absolutely forbid you to ditch me!"
"Congratulations!" Wu Jingbo reached out to Chuxia, face brimming with excitement. "I’m a little jealous of the opportunity you got, but more than that I’m happy for you—and happy for myself too. With you as a precedent, as long as I work a bit harder, I’ll definitely get a chance as well!"
"Lin Chuxia, you’re amazing. I’m taking you as my role model!" Lv Xiaomei blinked her starry eyes as she spoke. "My request is the same as Bingbing’s—please don’t ditch us!"
"As long as you don’t ditch me, I’m good." Chuxia secretly let out a sigh of relief. On the way back, she’d been worried the few people closest to her might start to feel distant from her.
She was closest and most familiar with Wu Jingbo, but within their former little circle, Jingbo was relatively on the periphery. With Zhao Bingbing, it was more that they shared a common goal and thus stood on the same starting line. As for Lv Xiaomei, she barely counted as a regular friend at best. All of a sudden she had run so far ahead of them, she really was scared they might drift away from her.
If she didn’t even have a close friend by her side, that would be truly pitiful! Even though she had Zhou Mikang, Zhao Qiliang, Luan Dajiang, and Lin Wenbin, distant water can’t quench present thirst—she didn’t see them every day!
Now she could finally set that worry down! Clearly, fate wasn’t treating her badly. No matter where she went, her luck was always rock solid!
She was officially an intern doctor now! Just thinking about it made her so excited she could barely speak! She’d just taken an enormous step forward in one go! (To be continued.
