Chapter 89: Finish the Fight Early, Go Home Early

On the ship.

Yan Ning had been helping to dress wounds since the afternoon, and she had basically not stopped once.

Their injuries were not severe, so Yan Ning gave every wounded soldier water mixed with Spirit Spring Water to drink.

It was not that she was stingy, but if one drank a cup of Spirit Spring Water, the wounds would basically all heal, and that would be too easy to arouse suspicion.

At this moment, two more patients arrived.

One had an arrow in their leg, and one had an arrow in their chest.

These arrows could not be pulled out directly, as it would cause secondary injury.

Yan Ning thought about whether she could ask her father to upgrade the arrowheads, preferably making them like these arrows.

Regarding these arrow wounds, Qian Ruofang was truly at a loss.

"The best method is to break the arrow and then take it out, but where are we going to find something to break the arrow with right now..."

Qian Ruofang simply sprinkled some Golden Sore Medicine on them and planned to think of a way later.

This was not the end of it.

Wu Jiangjun brought over a dozen more people who had suffered arrow wounds.

Qian Ruofang's vision went dark.

The military physician Hu Lin asked with some confusion, "Why aren't you helping them treat their wounds?"

Qian Ruofang said, "I really can't find anything to break the arrows with; if I pull them out directly, it will be even more painful."

Without a word, Hu Lin walked straight to the soldier with the arrow in his chest at her feet and, in a few quick movements, brutally pulled the arrow out.

Hu Lin: "Since when are they so delicate? Save their lives first, then talk."

Having said that, he began to nimbly pull arrows out of the others.

Qian Ruofang was stunned.

Yan Ning was not idle either; she began going around feeding people water mixed with Spirit Spring Water, "Don't worry, I added some anti-inflammatory medicine to this water. Drinking it is good for the wounds, so they don't get inflamed in such hot weather."

The others took it seriously; everyone knew that the First Prince had many good things in his possession.

As Yan Ning fed them water, she kept watch—why hadn't her father returned yet?

After thinking for a moment, she took the Telescope and began to look at the situation on the island; her father was returning with a group of people.

Wei Wu was still carrying something in his hand, though it was hard to see clearly.

Seeing that her father's arms and legs were all intact, Yan Ning felt a sense of relief and began to go feed the other wounded soldiers Spirit Spring Water.

There were too many wounded soldiers on Wu Jiangjun's side, and Yan Ning felt her heart jump every time she looked at those wounds.

Yet Hu Lin's movements were brutal.

Qian Ruofang and Yan Ning could hardly bear to watch.

"Doctor Hu, please rest for a moment. Let us handle the dressing of the wounds. This is truly too brutal and will increase their pain."

Hu Lin chuckled, "In military campaigns, if everyone were as dawdling as you, would you be able to save so many wounded soldiers?"

Yan Ning frowned, "But there aren't that many wounded right now. These are all injuries sustained to wipe out the Japanese pirates. When there is plenty of time, what is the problem with letting them suffer a little less?"

Hu Lin curled his lip, "Women are just full of trouble."

Yan Ning sneered, "You had better be careful not to get injured. If you ever fall into my hands, don't go around saying we are brutal in our movements then."

Hu Lin let out a "hmph" and left the deck.

No sooner had Hu Lin stepped out than he encountered Wei Wu, who was carrying a pitch-black captive.

Wei Wu threw the person inside and asked, "Can you treat his wounds first?"

Yan Ning hurriedly said, "Quick, hand him over to Doctor Hu. He is very painful when he saves people. Japanese pirates shouldn't enjoy the same treatment as our soldiers."

Hu Lin nearly stumbled; what did she mean by "he is very painful when he saves people"?

With a dark face, Hu Lin helped them treat the captive, and the man, who had been lifeless, let out one scream after another.

It was as if he were wishing he were dead.

All the soldiers glanced at Yan Ning, feeling an indescribable sense of gratitude.

Yan Ze beckoned to Yan Ning, and she went over immediately.

Yan Ze rubbed her head, "Are you afraid of looking at the wounds? How about you follow me tomorrow?"

Yan Ning shook her head, "I'm not afraid. I have to feed them the medicinal water; I won't go with you."

This level of casualties was already considered good.

Next, it was time for Xiao Chengtian to begin the interrogation.

A series of roars came from inside the room.

Yan Ning shivered.

Not long after, Xiao Chengtian came out.

Yan Ze took Yan Ning, along with Wu Jiangjun and Xiao Chengtian, to the temporarily converted conference room.

Yan Ze drew a simple map based on his memory. It only showed the general direction.

Xiao Chengtian said, "I managed to ask some things, but not much."

"This island is not small, but there are only three places with a Garrison, and the one we wiped out today was one of them."

"Then there is one Garrison in the far north, and the last one is in the middle of the island."

Yan Ning asked, "Father, Uncle Xiao, if we encounter civilians, should we kill them or..."

Xiao Chengtian was simple and brutal: "Kill them directly."

Yan Ze hesitated, "Do we really have to kill them directly?"

Xiao Chengtian said, "It's fine. You all go ahead and blow up the Garrison; we will handle the matter of the civilians."

Yan Ze & Yan Ning:...

No, this is just deceiving oneself to steal a bell.

Yan Ning rolled her eyes and asked, "How about we don't kill civilians, and only bomb the Garrison?"

Xiao Chengtian was the first to object: "Then wouldn't we have come for nothing? We must cut weeds and eliminate the roots, otherwise there will be endless trouble."

Yan Ning shook her head: "No, no, Uncle Xiao, I mean, if we bomb the Garrison and they still want to come and loot, we can just fight back then."

"Anyway, this trip will only take ten days or so, we have plenty of time, though I expect they won't have the guts to come over anymore."

Xiao Chengtian thought for a moment, "That could work too, I suppose after bombing three military camps, they won't dare to act recklessly."

Yan Ning breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it would be very satisfying to bomb all the Japanese, there were innocent civilians after all.

Yan Ning could not bring herself to do it.

But if they still want to come to the Daxia Dynasty to loot later, then we will wipe out the Garrison again, and fight until they dare not fight anymore.

Besides, coming to Woguo now is not considered far, it only takes half a month to arrive, and if we fight once a year, they can afford to fight.

At this moment, Yan Ze asked Xiao Chengtian: "Are you not sensitive to direction?"

High emotional intelligence: Are you not sensitive to direction?

Low emotional intelligence: Are you directionally challenged?

Xiao Chengtian felt a bit embarrassed, "It is indeed not very good."

Yan Ze gave him a Compass: "Look at this in the future, the needle points to the South."

Xiao Chengtian put it away, feeling a bit embarrassed.

But it was true that he had been wandering around all day today, and apart from bringing back a few horses, he had done nothing.

With the targets of the other two Garrisons, the battle plan was much simpler: go and bomb them.

Yan Ze said: "Tomorrow we will sail to the northernmost camp, bomb it directly, and then go to the middle camp."

Several Garrisons were all leaning against the coastline, which was also convenient for them to go to the Daxia Dynasty to loot together.

After formulating the battle plan, they went to rest.

Yan Ning did not waste any time, proposing that the ship continue to sail North that night, so they could fight as soon as they woke up the next day.

Yan Ze: "That is also fine, let's finish the fighting early and go back early, so as not to make your mother worry."
