Chapter 56

When Zhao Zhi walked out of the ward of Ledo Hospital, he saw the whole picture of this hospital clearly. It turned out that this hospital was only set up temporarily, just a circle with a simple wall in a vacant land, and the ward area where Zhao Zhi lived was about 20 zhang long and wide, and it was a flat-roofed two-story building, which contained a lot of wounded members of the expeditionary force. Opposite the ward area is a row of low houses, which houses the pharmacy, operating theatre and doctor's office. Although the facilities here are rudimentary, it is the starting point of a new life for the soldiers of the expeditionary force who have traveled long distances. The nurses and doctors who came in and out were busy, and no one noticed that Zhao Zhi and the others, who were wearing brand new military uniforms, were actually their wounded.

Just when Edward took Zhao Zhi and them sneaked out of the ward area, a window on the second floor was suddenly opened, Linda leaned out and pointed at Zhao Zhi and shouted, "Gendarme, gendarme, catch him, he stole my things" Zhao Zhi, who was confused, was set up by several Indian gendarmes with big shoulders and round waists, "Your injuries are not healed yet, where are you going?" Linda, who hurriedly went downstairs, stood in front of Zhao Zhi and looked at Zhao Zhi sternly, but there was a hint of a smile in her green eyes.

Helplessly, Zhao Zhi took the command from Edward and handed it to Linda, "Look, the headquarters ordered me to report to Ramgarh, and I don't know why?" Linda threw the order back to Edward, and said with a cold face, "I don't care, you are still my patient, I will call the headquarters, you can't go" Zhao Zhi had nothing to do, so he had to promise that before Linda finished the call, he would only wander around the yard and would not leave. Linda, who was not at ease, ordered the gendarmes to follow Zhao Zhi firmly, for fear that he would run away.

Still old and smart, as soon as Linda went to the office to make a call, he took out a few pieces of chocolate from his pocket, gathered in front of a group of wounded soldiers of the expeditionary force and muttered for a long time. Zhao Zhi slipped up to the group of wounded soldiers of the expeditionary force according to the meaning of the old cannon, and was suddenly surrounded by the group of wounded soldiers, and several gendarmes disappeared Zhao Zhi in a chaotic manner. Hurriedly stepped forward to pick up the wounded soldiers. No matter how powerful the gendarmes were, they couldn't stand the number of wounded soldiers, and if they didn't work hard, a few gendarmes were surrounded, and they couldn't squeeze them out.

The grinning Zhao Zhi took Edward and the others out of the hospital in a big way, and the gendarmes couldn't care about it. When Linda, who didn't get through the phone, was looking for Zhao Zhi all over the yard, they had already gone away, and the angry Linda lost her temper, and several gendarmes didn't dare to come out when they were reprimanded.

The humble Ledo Hospital was still more than a mile away from the train station, so Zhao Zhi and his team had to walk through the whole town to the train station, and by the way, they could also see Ledo. Ledo is not big, just a small town, but at this time Ledo is full of expeditionary routs. Lying or standing, neat or sloppy, but there are already gendarmes in the streets, and there has not yet been any disturbance to the people.

Zhao Zhi and the six of them were dressed in brand-new military uniforms and shiny military boots, which attracted everyone's attention, and from time to time someone followed behind them, wanting to see who they were. After the dog flashed his sniper rifle a few times, no one followed them anymore. The journey went smoothly, but the dog with a sniper rifle on his back was interrogated by the gendarmes several times, and Edward was there, and there were no problems.

Zhao Zhi, who was wearing new army boots, was not very accustomed to it, so he stomped awkwardly and stomped to the train station. Most of the soldiers who boarded the train on the platform were soldiers who had returned from their wounds, greeting each other, and those who knew each other gathered together to talk and laugh loudly. The train station was wagons, and the staff wearing armbands, after reading the order document in Edward's hand, pointed out to Zhao Zhi and them a carriage.

,,,The train was about to start, but the carriages had not yet opened, and the anxious old cannon went directly through the window, took the backpack, and the old cannon pulled everyone in one by one. At this time, the train had just started, and many people at the train station also followed Zhao Zhi's example, and they got into the car through the window.

Edward waited for the train to start, and then led everyone to the last additional carriage. This is a special carriage for officers, it is beautifully decorated, and there is a special toilet. There are eight soft seats in the carriage, and the old cannon looks at the knick-knacks in the carriage with a few novelties. There was already a person lying on the soft bunk in the innermost part of the carriage, and it was actually Zhao Zhi's old acquaintance, Zhao Yuanzhi.

The old cannon was naturally angry when they saw Zhao Yuanzhi, the old cannon snorted heavily in his nose, turned his head and stopped looking at Zhao Yuanzhi's nasty face. However, Zhao Yuanzhi jumped up from the soft bunk, and greeted Zhao Zhi familiarly, "Isn't this Zhao Zhi?" Are you going to Lambgarh too? The military headquarters is gathering personnel in Ramgarh, and all the people of the military headquarters are ordered to assemble in Lamgarh, and I also received the order yesterday."

Zhao Zhi used his body to block Zhao Yuanzhi's gaze at the backpack, and smiled slightly, "Yes, we are also going to Ramga" Zhao Zhi's action attracted the attention of the goat, and he stretched out his foot to hook the backpack under the seat, but he didn't want the golden Buddha in the backpack to collide with the iron rod under the seat, making a dull impact sound.

"Zhao Zhi, what did you bring?" Zhao Yuanzhi relied on the fact that he was a colonel, and reached out to grab the backpack under the seat, wanting to see what was going on. Edward, who was stabbed by the old cannon, reacted and blocked Zhao Yuanzhi, "Please stand back, this is what the British army headquarters needs, and you don't have the right to check"

Zhao Yuanzhi saw that he was a yellow-haired foreigner, so he let go of his hand stupidly, but he felt that the contents of the backpack were very heavy, and it must not be a document or something. Everyone who was originally very interested, since the existence of Zhao Yuanzhi, the carriage has become much quieter. When the train entered the second station, the handyman opened the door and brought jam, bread, coffee, curry chicken and other food. There were also two British officers who came in with the miscellaneous servants, Edward and the two British officers chattered for a while, although Zhao Zhi couldn't understand what they said, but looking at the expression on Edward's face, it was probably not a good thing.

Sure enough, the two British officers walked straight to Zhao Yuanzhi and politely asked Zhao Yuanzhi to take the third-class carriage, because this carriage was specially hung for foreign officers. Through the translation of the miscellaneous servants, Zhao Yuanzhi understood the meaning of these two yellow-haired foreigners, and pointed at Zhao Zhi and a few of them angrily, "Their military rank is lower than mine, why don't you let them out?" The foreign officer shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm sorry, they are guests of the British command and have every right to sit here"

Zhao Yuanzhi looked at Zhao Zhi and the others who were munching on food hatefully, and left with their luggage. Edward laughed and raised his coffee cup at Zhao Zhi, "Zhao, this nasty ghost is gone, let's take it easy" Zhao Zhi then figured out what was going on.

It turned out that this additional carriage was a second-class carriage, which, according to British rules, was reserved for officers. The order that Edward held said that Zhao Zhi and the others were all guests of the British army headquarters and enjoyed the same treatment as British officers during their time in India, so Edward's little tricks were not wrong. It's just that Zhao Yuanzhi was driven to the third-class carriage, and the dog who secretly ran to see it came back and said that Zhao Yuanzhi was huddled with a few Indians full of curry flavor. Zhao Zhi, who couldn't help it, also secretly went to see it, and when he came back, he couldn't stop laughing.

The train went and stopped all the way for more than four days, but fortunately, the carriages were all soft shops, and the food and cigarettes were free. At noon on the fifth day, the train finally stopped, because they had arrived at Ramgarh, the largest training base of the Allied forces in India, ---. Edward learned the location of Uncle Guo from the officer who picked up the station, and Zhao Zhi, who couldn't wait, pulled Edward into the jeep, ready to see Uncle Guo and them first. Looking at Zhao Zhi's anxious appearance, Edward could only repay with strong contempt and indifference, because he believed that what Zhao Zhi was thinking about most now was not Uncle Guo, but that little aunt and grandmother --- Yuan Qingqing.
