"How many casualties were there in this battle?”Chen Ping asked Liu Kui.
"Five people were sacrificed, three were seriously injured, and a dozen were lightly injured. Compared to the bandits, our losses were not too great.”Liu Kui sighed and replied.
"It's already very good." Chen Ping patted Liu Kui's shoulder and ordered,"Let's search the village thoroughly and take away all the property. Then, leave a few people behind. This place might become our second base.”
The stronghold was easy to defend and difficult to attack. There were also a few natural barriers. It was not that easy to break through, but the bandits were used to being domineering. There were no troops around that could threaten them. The defense was too lax, which gave the militia a chance.
"Understood!" Liu Kui nodded and began to command the troops to move the spoils of war.
Chen Ping and Shi Tou had just walked out of the room when they bumped into Doctor Zheng and the others who were walking over. Zhang Ya was also inside, but her eyes were red from crying.
" Company Commander Chen, thank you very much for saving our lives. If it weren't for you, we..." Doctor Zheng did not continue, but everyone understood.
"Doctor Zheng, you're too polite. It's our duty to enforce justice on behalf of the heavens.”Chen Ping said lightly.
"By the way, why are you all looking for me?”
Hearing this, Doctor Zheng looked troubled. He gritted his teeth and said,"Company Commander Chen, can you send someone to escort us to the nearby national army station? I will definitely reward you heavily!"
Hearing this, Chen Ping's face darkened." Doctor Zheng, are you preparing to leave with her?”
"Yes." Doctor Zheng lowered his head, not daring to look into Chen Ping's eyes.
Chen Ping frowned and looked at the medical staff in front of him. He was very angry.
We just saved you, and there are injured people who need to be dealt with. It's fine if you don't want to repay us, but you want to leave just like that?
I'm not the kind of saint who doesn't seek repayment for kindness!
Chen Ping understood that the reason why this group of people wanted to leave was because they looked down on the militia company and thought that the national army was the real army.
This was also the reason why Monk Wei didn't want to stay in the independent regiment.
However, these people were clearly far from Monk Wei. At least Monk Wei knew to repay Zhao Gang for saving his life before thinking of leaving.
Chen Ping's expression gradually turned cold. He looked at the group of medical staff in front of him and said indifferently,"Is that what the rest of you mean?”
His gaze swept across the medical staff one by one. Everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to look him in the eye.
On the one hand, she felt guilty. On the other hand, she was afraid that Chen Ping would hurt her.
Suddenly, a timid voice sounded,""I, I can stay for now."
Chen Ping looked over in surprise. It was the young nurse who was tied to the bed.
The young nurse's eyes were a little timid, but she still raised her head firmly and said,"I can stay!"
The head nurse, who was sharp and mean, said anxiously,"Little Ya, what are you doing here? Don't let that happen, you won't be able to leave even if you want to!”
"No, he saved me. I believe in him.”Zhang Ya lowered her head and whispered.
Chen Ping smiled and said to Stone,"Shi Tou, go and arrange for two people to leave. Other than Miss Zhang Ya, send everyone else away.”
"Yes, sir!" Stone glared at the medical staff. He really looked down on these people who did not repay their kindness.
Doctor Zheng and the others lowered their heads and looked ashamed. They did not say a word.
"Come with me. I'll send you off.”Shi Tou said coldly and walked forward.
Dr. Zheng opened his mouth, wanting to say something. In the end, he sighed and lowered his head to leave with Shi Tou. The other female nurses quickly followed him.
However, to Chen Ping's surprise, the sharp-tongued nurse did not leave with him.
Sister Mei, why aren't you leaving?" Zhang Ya asked curiously.
"What do you think? Your mother asked me to take care of you. Now that you want to stay, how am I going to explain it to your mother when I go back!”Mei Yu sighed.
Hearing this, Zhang Ya stuck out her tongue in embarrassment. She went forward and hugged Mei Yu's arm, her eyes full of apology.
Liu Kui, who was far away, spat at Dr. Zheng and the others after hearing what had happened from Shi Tou." Who are these people?" He even saved the dying and healed the wounded. He didn't even understand the basic act of repaying kindness!”
"Everyone has their own aspirations. There's no need to force them. Besides, didn't we leave two people behind?”Chen Ping smiled." Let's go back after we're done packing."”
"Yes, sir!"
Then, Liu Kui issued a few orders and led the troops to evacuate.
After returning to Gujing Village, the militia company was warmly welcomed by the villagers.
For the sake of a few villagers, they attacked the bandits who had been entrenched for many years. This deeply touched the villagers and made them trust the militia even more!
Two days later, the escorting militia returned, saying that Dr. Zheng and the others had arrived at the military station. In return, Dr. Zheng asked them to bring back some western medicine such as amoxicilin.
This made Chen Ping feel much better. Although the amount of Western medicine was not large, it was very precious.
As for Zhang Ya and Mei Yu, Chen Ping arranged for them to take care of the injured without any hesitation.
Although Mei Yu was unwilling, she was very responsible when she was working, which made Chen Ping think highly of her.
