...

Hmm......

Zhang Dahan nodded and ran towards the back courtyard with that soldier named Zhan Shi.

At this moment, Zhang Dahan was also very anxious. The parents of these soldiers had entrusted their children to the military unit; as the highest-ranking military commander, it was his duty to ensure the safety of each soldier.

"Brother, wait for me! I'll go with you to take a look!"

Seeing Zhang Dahan running towards the back courtyard in such anxiety, Xiao Yu shouted at him. Facing such an incident, Xiao Yu could not just stand by and watch.

Zhang Dahan, who was mid-run upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, snapped his fingers as if realizing something—he had completely forgotten about this brother of his, whose medical skills were extremely proficient.

"Mom, wait for me a moment. I'll go with Hai Ge to take a look!" After speaking to Zhang Dahan, Xiao Yu turned around and said to his mother.

Xiao Yu caught up with the distant Zhang Dahan, and together they ran towards the back courtyard of the military camp.

"Let's also go see what it’s about."

Seeing Xiao Yu and company leave, Xiao Jian Ying said to Yun Xi, Xiao Yu, and Lu Jianhong. Then he took a step towards them.

Hearing this, Yun Xi showed a look of delight on her face; she loved watching Xiao Yu treat illnesses the most, so she followed Xiao Jian Ying in walking towards the courtyard.

Xiao Yu and Lu Jianhong looked at each other helplessly before shaking their heads—they were already used to such things happening, so they stepped forward as well.

Today, Jin Xianglin had nothing much to do either, so he followed them too.

Xiao Yu and Zhang Dahan moved very quickly, easily leaving the soldier behind. They arrived at the derrick below.

A large crowd was gathered around the derrick, filled with murmurs of discussion. Upon seeing Zhang Dahan's arrival, they immediately stopped talking and made way for him to pass through.

Xiao Yu followed closely behind Zhang Dahan, joining the center of the crowd. On the ground in the middle lay a young man in his twenties; several doctors, wearing military uniforms underneath white coats, looked anxiously at the young man lying on the ground.

"Hello Commander-in-Chief, Chief..." The doctors greeted Zhang Dahan upon seeing him.

"Hmm... What's the situation"

Zhang Daha nodded at a few doctors and glanced at the young man on the ground before asking them.

"The situation isn't good. We don’t have equipment here to determine the specifics, but based on our diagnosis, there’s a possibility of internal organ rupture... "

Hearing Zhang Daha's inquiry, these doctors explained briefly and then shook their heads in helplessness.

"Third Brother, what do you think"

Zhang Daha turned to Xiao Yu behind him. Although the doctor from the medical team didn't give a clear result, anyone could tell that this young man's condition was poor. So even though he knew Xiao Yu’s superb skills as a healer, Zhang Daha couldn’t help but feel uncertain.

Since entering the tent, Xiao Yu had been observing the young soldier, who with every breath exhaled small amounts of blood and sometimes even dark red clots.

Hearing Zhang Daha's words, Xiao Yu frowned seriously and crouched down. From his observations, he agreed with the doctors' assessment that the young soldier had severely injured his internal organs upon falling.

Xiao Yu grasped the young soldier’s wrist to take his pulse. Despite how critical the situation appeared, he needed to confirm the extent of the injuries.

After about half a minute, Xiao Yu released the soldier's wrist and checked the other hand’s pulse.

"Ah..."

Xiao Yu let go of the young soldier’s wrist and sighed gently.

"Third Brother, how is it" Seeing Xiao Yu's expression, Zhang Daha had a bad feeling but couldn't help asking.

Although Zhang Daha had only recently arrived at this place, through his interactions with these soldiers during that time, he developed feelings for them. Especially seeing the young men reminded him of himself when he first joined the military.

Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "His five organs have不同程度的損傷,內臟出血嚴重,情況非常糟糕!"

“這麼說,他已經……”

聽到蕭煜的話,張大海十分震驚。他對蕭煜的醫術還是很瞭解的,通過他的調查和所知道的情況,蕭煜雖然出手次數不多,但無論多麼嚴重的病都能解決,所以他一聽蕭煜的話就知道基本上冇救了。

Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "His five organs have sustained不同程度的損傷,內臟出血嚴重,情況非常糟糕!"

"This means he has already...

Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Zhang Daha was extremely shocked. He knew quite well about Xiao Yu’s medical skills; through his investigation and what he knew, despite the few times Xiao Yu had treated patients, no matter how severe the illness, he could handle it. So upon hearing Xiao Yu’s statement, he realized that there was little hope for recovery.

Xiao Yu nodded but was still frowning and deep in thought, trying to think of a way out. After all, it involved the life of a young person who was only twenty years old.

At this moment, the sound of an ambulance echoed outside the crowd. Upon hearing the siren, the soldiers surrounding them quickly cleared a path for the ambulance to enter.

The ambulance stopped not far from where the injured soldier lay. Four people got off: one doctor and two nurses, along with the driver of the ambulance.

This ambulance's accompanying doctor was from the Deep Sea Armed Police Hospital and also served as a military personnel, exhibiting a military demeanor in all his actions.

"Reporting to Commander Zhang. Doctor Wang Heshan here for duty. Please give your instructions!" The doctor approached Zhang Dahan and said.

The doctor was from the Deep Sea Armed Police Hospital and naturally recognized Zhang Dahan as the new highest-ranking leader of the Deep Sea Armed Police.

Zhang Dahan nodded at the doctor but didn't speak, instead turning his gaze to Xiao Yu who was deep in thought.

The accompanying doctor noticed that Zhang Dahan did not respond and did not instruct them to transport the injured soldier to the hospital. Instead, he looked towards a young man beside him, momentarily stunned before looking at Xiao Yu with suspicion.

"Commander, if we don't take the injured soldier to the hospital soon, it might be too late!"

The ambulance doctor, seeing the soldier lying on the ground occasionally spitting up blood, quickly saluted Zhang Dahan and urged him.

Zhang Dahan glanced at Xiao Yu who was still in deep thought and then looked down at the young soldier lying on the ground with half-open eyes but no consciousness. He waved his hand at the doctor.

With instructions from Zhang Dahan, the doctor immediately instructed the nurses and driver to carry the injured soldier.

"Don't move him!" Xiao Yu snapped back into focus upon seeing these people about to lift the wounded soldier, alarmed and shouting out.

"If he is not taken to the hospital soon, it will be too late! It's your responsibility!" The doctor from the ambulance said irritably after hearing what Xiao Yu had to say.

He was not so courteous with Xiao Yu, a young man who could instruct him around. Moreover, this was an urgent matter concerning someone's life; there was no time for delays.

"The moment you move him, he'll die faster!" Said Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu heard the resentment in the doctor’s words and initially thought of letting them proceed with moving him. However, considering this was a matter of life and death, and these doctors were genuinely concerned for the injured soldier's well-being, he decided to intervene.

The doctor paid no heed to Xiao Yu's words and continued directing the nurses and driver to lift the injured patient.

"Wait a moment!"

The others might not know Xiao Yu's medical skills, but he did! Therefore, after hearing what Xiao Yu said, when he saw that the accompanying doctor didn’t stop, he couldn't help but hurriedly shout.

Hearing Zhang Dahan's words, the doctor had no choice but to stop. He could ignore what Xiao Yu said, but he couldn't ignore what Zhang Dahan said. Although he stopped, he still looked at Zhang Dahan with a puzzled expression.

"Third Brother, what’s going on"

Seeing that the people in the ambulance had stopped moving, Zhang Dahan turned around and asked Xiao Yu.

"He fell down and suffered multiple internal injuries. Right now, he's better off not moving at all because any movement will worsen his internal injuries. With his current condition, he might not even make it to the hospital!"

Seeing everyone looking at him, Xiao Yu explained.

Although Xiao Yu could have ignored everything and just left, he couldn't bear to see a life slipping away right before his eyes without doing anything. Although there was no certainty of success, if they moved the injured person now, there would be absolutely no chance.

"Then do you have a solution"

Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Zhang Dahan’s eyes lit up and he asked.

If Xiao Yu didn't let them move the injured soldier, it must mean that there was at least some chance of success. Otherwise, he would not have spoken up and simply allowed them to take him to the hospital.

"I only have a fifty percent chance of stabilizing his condition temporarily! As for what to do next, Brother, I think you should make your own decision!" After hearing Zhang Dahan's question, Xiao Yu thought about it briefly before answering.

The decision could only be made by Zhang Dahan himself. After all, this was his subordinate. If the soldier died in the hospital without being saved and if he had treated him personally but failed to save him, these were completely different scenarios.

"Third Brother, you're saying that if we take him to the hospital now, there's a hundred percent chance he'll die"

Zhang Dahan was decisive in his actions, yet now he hesitated. He knew Wang Kai well; he came from a farming family and was their only son. His parents didn't want him to live a life of facing the earth as farmers did, so they sent him into military service with the hope that he could become an officer and find a better future.

When Zhang Dahan first took office, Wang Kai’s parents brought some local specialties from their hometown and traveled for three days to reach here. They found Zhang Dahan. Although his parents were not yet fifty years old, they looked as if they were over sixty due to the hardships of life.

Zhang Dahan had promised that he would take good care of Wang Kai, but now... He couldn't even imagine what his parents would do if Wang Kai died.
