Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1021: Chapter 1015: Command Authority_1

“Alright, I understand, thank you.” Chu Molin nodded his head and expressed his gratitude. He wasn’t thanking the man for handing over the command, but rather for being a doctor and yet acting as a commander here. A good commander can be the key to the outcome of a battle, and in this rescue operation helmed by this man, the results were evidently not bad.

“We’re all men, all serving our country and our people, so I really can’t accept your thanks.” Dongfang He was surprised to hear this seemingly cold and stern man, Chu Molin, thanking him. It gave him a feeling of being flattered.

“Hello, you were looking for us.” The two people who were called over immediately asked Chu Molin upon seeing him.

“Yes, help lift this person onto the stretcher. Be careful with his injury.” Chu Molin gestured to his own spine with his hand.

“Yes.” The two immediately understood Chu Molin’s meaning and nodded in agreement.

“Come, I’ll count one, two, three and then we lift him together.” Chu Molin said. Each of them was in charge of a different part, and upon hearing Chu Molin’s instructions, they all nodded in understanding.

“One, two, three, lift.” Chu Molin glanced at the medical staff and soldiers next to him, and all of them lifted the injured person in unison.

“Thank you, you’ve worked hard.” The locals were very touched to see the soldiers and officers helping them.

“Uncle, it’s our duty. You should head to the safe zone, it’s not safe here. You aren’t trained, and there are many hidden dangers here. If we have to look after you, it will distract us and we won’t be able to do our jobs properly. So please don’t stay here. If we need your help, we’ll come to find you.” Chu Molin looked at the locals who still wanted to stay and help. If they were soldiers, he would have agreed without a second thought, but they were not and their presence would only hinder their rescue operation. So it would be better if they didn’t stay.

“Oh, alright then. If there’s anything you need, do come find us.” Upon hearing Chu Molin’s words, the locals exchanged glances before finally agreeing to leave.

Since their presence really was a burden, they decided to leave and let the soldiers and officers have more time to rescue their loved ones and fellow villagers.

“Yes, we certainly will. Please check yourselves for injuries when you get back. If you find any, get them treated immediately and make sure they don’t get infected. Understand?” Chu Molin was surprised that they were so agreeable. In the past, some people refused to leave, insisting on staying and causing a lot of trouble. Now, having such compliant locals instead took Chu Molin by surprise.

“Alright, guys, let’s go. We shouldn’t be hindering the soldiers’ rescue efforts.” On seeing the others not wanting to leave, one of them spoke.

“Okay, village clerk, should we all go to the safe zone?” the others asked upon hearing him.

“Let’s go. The country won’t abandon us. We have to be patient. Right now, the country’s main focus is on the rescue operation. They can’t take care of us for the time being, but we can’t add to their troubles, right? What about those who are still buried?” The village clerk started speaking slowly after being asked.

Looking at their retreating figures, Chu Molin raised his eyebrows. It turned out to be a village official. No wonder everyone was so obedient and cooperative. If everyone could cooperate like this, their work would be much easier.
