Wandering the Heavens

Chapter 298: Sword 1

When Yu Xian opened his eyes again, he found that the wound on his head that was bandaged tightly was extremely painful. He didn't know how long he had been unconscious. He felt dry mouth and tongue, and he had no strength in his body and could not move.

"Ding~, hello host! Please remember your identity, your name is Yu Xian, and you are the deputy company commander of the first company, first battalion, independent regiment, 18th brigade, 129th division of the 386th army. Seven years ago, the army organized by you passed through your hometown during the Long March. Your family was implicated in the war among warlords and all of them were killed. You are the only one who survived. For this reason, you followed the organization and left your hometown, and grew up to be a veteran along the way."

"Five days ago, the Independent Regiment encountered Yamamoto Ikki's special forces in Yangcun, and all your company members were killed. Please accept my condolences, host, and live well in this era. Goodbye!"

Yu Xian was suffering from the severe pain from the wound on his head, so he had no time to argue with the system. While the system was integrating Yu Xian's memories, he heard an excited voice entering his ears.

"Doctor, doctor, he's awake!"

After a while, a man in a white coat and a white hat walked in, pulled open Yu Xian's eyelids and looked around, then took out a flashlight and shone it into his pupils. He listened to his heartbeat for a while, asked a nurse to cover him with a quilt, and then left.

Yu Xian wanted to say he was thirsty and wanted to drink some water, but he could hardly even breathe, let alone speak.

……

Half a month later, after Yu Xian's persistent persuasion, he finally got the permission to be discharged and returned to the team. He used the time in the hospital to sort out the situation and his own situation. This is the world of Bright Sword. Now is the time when the independent regiment is attacked. The head of the regiment, Kong Jie, was dismissed on the spot. The headquarters appointed Li Yunlong as the head of the regiment. As soon as he took office, he began to reduce the size of the independent regiment.

"Report, Yu Xian has recovered from his injury and returned to the team!" Yu Xian was led by the soldiers of the guard company to the courtyard where Li Yunlong lived.

Li Yunlong was sitting on the kang with Kong Jie, looking at the shell with sighs and frowns.

"Good boy, you're still alive, that's good!" Kong Jie didn't wait for Li Yunlong to react, he stood up from the kang and supported Yu Xian's shoulders, feeling relieved: "Old Li, this is the only surviving veteran among more than 200 people!"

"Captain, I will definitely avenge our fallen comrades!" Yu Xian said, standing at attention and saluting.

"I am the deputy leader now, this is what a leader should be!" Kong Jie stood aside dejectedly.

"Hello, Commander!" Yu Xian saluted Li Yunlong again.

"Okay, you are a veteran soldier after all, why are you so polite?" Li Yunlong frowned.

"Old Li, Yu Xian is no ordinary person. Before he joined the organization, he was considered a wealthy family in the local area and was well-educated."

Seeing that Li Yunlong didn't like Yu Xian's temperament, Kong Jie could only speak up to explain for this old subordinate who had survived a great disaster.

"A young master from a wealthy family! How did you become a soldier?" Li Yunlong asked.

"Report to the commander, my family is not a wealthy family. When the warlords in the southwest were fighting, a defeated army passed through my hometown and said they were raising military pay. Then I was the only one left alive in my family. In 1935, the Red Army passed through my hometown during the Long March, and I followed all the way here." Yu Xian said in a low voice.

Li Yunlong was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and could only raise his hand and pinch Yu Xian's shoulder.

"Okay, you go down first. The troops are being downsized due to the casualties in the last battle. I will discuss with the regiment commander how to arrange it." Kong Jie saw that the atmosphere was a bit awkward and hurriedly asked Yu Xian to go out first.

Yu Xian saluted again, left the room and went to the yard to wait for orders.

I don’t know why I came to this era, but now that I’m here, I’ll live here peacefully. What’s more, I have accumulated knowledge for several lifetimes. Little devils, just wait for me!

If nothing unexpected happens, he should be demoted to a platoon leader. Now, making a living under Li Yunlong should not be too difficult. If Zhou Weiguo can train a special forces team, he can do it too.

But there is no such condition at present, and there is an imminent crisis. In the coming August, Ningji Okamura launched a raid on the base. The marching route of the Yamazaki Battalion deviated due to a mistake and they mistakenly broke into the field hospital of the base, where all the wounded doctors and nurses died.

When Shinozuka Yoshio saw the opportunity, he immediately ordered three brigades to support the attack, using the Yamazaki Battalion in exchange for the possibility of completely annihilating the anti-Japanese forces in the northwestern Shanxi base area.

The top priority right now is to find a way to prevent this tragedy from happening.

Just as he was thinking about it, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes came into the courtyard with his guards. Yu Xian hurriedly stood up and saluted.

"Who are you?" Zhao Gang asked puzzledly after returning the gift.

"Reporting to the commander, I am Yu Xian, a soldier of the independent regiment!"

Yu Xian didn’t know how Li Yunlong and Kong Jie were going to arrange for him, so he could only say that he was a soldier.

"No, you don't have the temperament of a warrior." Zhao Gang shook his head.

"Who is talking?" Li Yunlong and Kong Jie walked out of the room one after another.

"Captain Li, this is the political commissar assigned to you and the independent regiment by the headquarters!" When the headquarters clerk saw Li Yunlong coming out, he saluted and handed over the document.

As soon as these words were spoken, Kong Jie glanced at Li Yunlong, fearing that he would get angry. After all, the officer had said that this was specifically emphasized by the political commissar sent to him and the independent regiment.

"Captain Li, I'm Zhao Gang. We'll be partners from now on." Zhao Gang saluted and extended his hand.

Li Yunlong looked at Zhao Gang for a while. To be honest, he didn't like intellectuals like Zhao Gang. But seeing the secretary from the headquarters was here, he could only stretch out his hand and shake hands with Zhao Gang for a while without saying a word. The secretary saw that everyone was happy, so he said a few words and left in a hurry.

As soon as the others left, Li Yunlong turned to Yu Xian and said, "I have discussed with Lao Kong that you should go to the First Battalion to be a platoon leader with Zhang Dabiao. Lao Kong, take him with you."

If there weren't so many people, Yu Xian would have wanted to roll his eyes. He was obviously going to drive everyone away and then make an agreement with Zhao Gang about who had the final say in the independent regiment.

Kong Jie knew Li Yunlong's temper and it was difficult to say anything, so he could only exchange some polite words with Zhao Gang and then took Yu Xian out of the courtyard to report to the first battalion's base.

"Old Li, his old problem comes back again!" Kong Jie walked a long way before looking back at the courtyard and sighing.

"Captain, what's Captain Li's old problem?" Yu Xian asked with pretended curiosity.

"I can't explain this to you. The battalion commander of the first battalion, Zhang Dabiao, was brought here by Li Yunlong. He is very capable. So I feel very relieved that you are with him. You must always remember the comrades who died in Yangcun and avenge them!" Kong Jie changed the subject.

"Captain, I will definitely avenge everyone." Yu Xian clenched his fists.

Yu Xian, who was born in a peaceful era, always looked at this dark and humiliating history with impotent rage, but now that he has become a part of it, he will turn his former impotent rage into a raging flame of revenge and let the blood of those beasts flow.

"Hello, Vice Captain Kong!"

At the first battalion’s base, Zhang Dabiao was presiding over a training session, and the training ground was full of lively atmosphere.

"This is Yu Xian who has returned from injury. He was the deputy company commander before. Now Lao Li and I have discussed letting him come here to be a platoon leader."

Kong Jie had a premonition that he would not be able to stay in the independent regiment for long, so he could only stand up for Yu Xian in this way.

"You're just in time. My company's third platoon is just in need of a platoon leader." Zhang Dabiao saluted and then shook hands.

"Hello, Battalion Commander!" Yu Xian stood at attention and saluted.

"Since we eat from the same pot, we are brothers. We don't need to salute in unimportant occasions in the future." Zhang Dabiao said meaningfully.
