Double-Cut During the War of Resistance: My Wife Came from 1937

Chapter 68 Returning with Medicine ; Commander Liu's Joy

"Why!"

Xia Weiwei fell silent upon hearing Ma Hongwei's words.

At present, the Eighth Route Army only has more than 50,000 men, which is no match for the Kuomintang.

Moreover, the Japanese have already launched a full-scale invasion of China.

Their infighting will only benefit Japan.

Xia Weiwei said unwillingly, "Is there really no way to deal with this old witch?"

Ma Hongwei narrowed his eyes and said, "Once our team is stronger, we'll find a way to get a sniper rifle and snipe her from a distance!"

With a silencer, a sniper rifle can easily take down a person at long range.

If they didn't want the soldiers to sacrifice themselves in vain, they could do it themselves.

I will use my dual-space ability to travel to this time and space.

Even if the other party wanted to catch him, they couldn't.

"We can also print out a huge pile of evidence of corruption by the four major families and throw it all over the country, so that they will be completely disgraced and lose the support of the people."

As a native of the Central Plains, Ma Hongwei naturally harbored deep hatred for this adulterous couple.

Like the bald man ordering his men to breach the Yellow River dike, intending to use water as a weapon.

The results of it?

Only a little over 1000 Japanese soldiers drowned, less than 2000.

Some Japanese grassroots records even state that only a few hundred people drowned directly, while the rest died from lack of food and disease after being trapped.

As for the 7452 dead people recorded at the Second Army Memorial Service in Japan, these were not the number of people who drowned.

That refers to the entire Second Army, from the Battle of Xuzhou until the breach of the dike, including all those who died, were wounded, or went missing.

In contrast, in China, floods swept through 44 counties across the three provinces of Central China, Anhui, and Jiangsu.

A total of 89 people died from drowning, starvation, and disease.

In addition, more than 1200 million people have been affected by the disaster, and millions of people have been displaced, forced to leave their homes and become refugees.

The great famine in the Central Plains at that time was also due to the destruction of a large amount of fertile land by floods. Tens of millions of acres of land became desertified and salinized, making it impossible to grow food for several years.

It wasn't until the founding of New China that Secretary Jiao Yulu led the people of the county in controlling sandstorms, saline-alkali land, and waterlogging.

Their famous Red Flag Canal in Lincheng was built during the fiery years of the new China.

It can be said that no one from the Central Plains could help but hate the other side.

Unless he's a fake.

"That saying is so true: your perspective is determined by your position!"

After watching the video, Ma Hongwei said to Xia Weiwei, "Letting capital make revolutionary films is no different from letting landlords play peasants; in the end, it will only produce a bunch of reactionary garbage."

……

the next day.

It's almost time for Xia Weiwei to go back.

Inside the living room, Xia Weiwei had already put all the items away.

Ma Hongwei took Xia Weiwei's hand and said, "Weiwei, when you get back, you must remind Vice General Peng and Division Commander Liu."

"What's wrong?"

Xia Weiwei asked, "Is something going to happen to them?"

"The point is to make them aware of malaria!"

Ma Hongwei said, "Deputy General Peng and Division Commander Liu are both susceptible to malaria, so we must be careful."

The mountainous areas of North China have many forests and stagnant water, which breeds a lot of mosquitoes.

Many Eighth Route Army cadres contracted malaria as a result.

For example, Vice President Peng had contracted vivax malaria, and his condition was very serious at the time.

Therefore, the military doctor wanted to borrow Quinine from the 129th Division.

At that time, the 129th Division did not have many of these effective drugs for treating malaria.

But Deputy Commander Peng always shared weal and woe with the soldiers, sharing their joys and sorrows, and insisted on not using quinine, a special drug.

He said these special medicines were obtained by soldiers at the risk of their lives and should be given priority to the soldiers.

Finally, the Bupleurum injection with more impurities was given to General Peng.

At that time, the technology was underdeveloped and the equipment was rudimentary. This injection solution contained many impurities, had poor efficacy, and sometimes even caused pyrogenic reactions.

"good!"

Xia Weiwei nodded and said, "I will remind them."

She looked into Ma Hongwei's eyes, put her arms around him, and whispered softly in his ear, "Goodbye, I'm going back now. Wait for me to come back!"

After saying that, Xia Weiwei stood up, stepped into the spatial ripples, and disappeared.

……

Another time and space.

inside the house.

In addition to Division Commander Liu and Deputy Division Commander Xu, there is now another Deputy Division Commander Nie.

After sending the telegram for help, he rode his horse to the headquarters of the 129th Division.

Because the two places are quite far apart, he had only been there a short time.

Deputy Division Commander Nie planned to take the medicine back as soon as possible.

Commander Liu said, "Old Nie, when you go back, remember to bring some compressed biscuits back with you!"

"Compressed biscuits?"

Upon hearing this, Deputy Division Commander Nie couldn't help but say, "Why aren't they focusing on procuring supplies? What are they doing making cookies?"

In his opinion, Western snacks like biscuits are far less substantial than bran buns.

"Don't underestimate these compressed biscuits!"

Deputy Division Commander Xu said, "In the future world, these compressed biscuits were used as military rations for a period of time, and even now, they are still considered one of the emergency individual rations."

"It contains wheat flour, oil, salt, sugar, and milk powder. Just a small piece will keep you from getting hungry for several hours. With water, you don't even need to cook. It's perfect for fighting."

"Oh?"

Deputy Division Commander Nie said with great interest, "If that's the case, then you must give us some."

Commander Liu said, "The amount of compressed biscuits that Xia brought back last time was enough for the soldiers of our three divisions to eat for four days. This time we need to bring medicine, so the amount of compressed biscuits will probably be less."

As the three were talking, Xia Weiwei appeared inside the house.

"Comrade Xia is back!"

Deputy Division Commander Xu stood up with a smile.

Deputy Division Commander Nie hurriedly asked, "Xia, have you managed to get your hands on the quinine drug yet?"

"Deputy Division Commander Nie, quinine is too toxic and will be a banned drug in the future."

Xia Weiwei said, "However, Comrade Hongwei helped us purchase 11000 boxes of artemisinin-based drugs. This drug is also used to treat malaria, but its side effects are not as severe as quinine."

Upon hearing the first part of the sentence, Deputy Division Commander Nie's expression immediately turned serious.

But upon hearing the second half of the sentence, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's wonderful! Thank you so much, Comrade Hongwei!"

Commander Lin is very important to their 115th Division, and he doesn't want Commander Lin's health to suffer.

Xia Weiwei said with a smile, "In addition to these malaria treatment drugs, I also brought back 44.8 tons of compressed biscuits, a batch of amoxicillin, a batch of cephalosporins, a batch of penicillin, a batch of sulfonamides, as well as saline and glass syringes."

"44.8 tons of compressed biscuits?"

Upon hearing this, Commander Liu was overjoyed.

It's worth noting that the last time Xia Weiwei brought back 33.6 tons of compressed biscuits, that was enough to feed their frontline soldiers for four days.

This time, the shipment was 11.2 tons more than the last time.

In other words, there will be one more day and one more meal.

These compressed biscuits, if added together, would be enough to feed the Eighth Route Army on the front lines for nine days, even though they were simultaneously blockaded by the Kuomintang and the Japanese army.
