Join the top ace army at the beginning of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea

Thinking of this, He Daming changed the subject.

"Zhu Zi, you have to remember that your current military achievements can be exchanged for an equivalent public official status. As long as you don't make any mistakes in principle, you will basically have no worries about food and clothing.

So don't keep thinking about being a cook or being a servant. You have to understand that you are now the battalion commander of the Volunteer Army, not the apprentice of Fengze Garden. Do you understand?"

He Yuzhu nodded heavily in response to the teachings of his second uncle.

"Uncle, I understand. I know what to choose. I will change my career when I return. I will listen to you."

He Daming heard what He Yuzhu said and patted him on the shoulder meaningfully.

"Zhu Zi, remember to say hello to your father for me when you return to City 49, okay?"

He Yuzhu nodded.

"Don't worry, Uncle, I understand."

Looking at He Yuzhu in front of him with a confused look on his face, He Daming didn't know what to say. He had already explained everything he needed to.

Then he stood up and left the camp of the 120th Division.

....................................

After he returned to his deputy commander's residence, He Daming lay on the bed and began to ponder his future plans and path.

To be honest, there are only two options before him. The first is to change his career, and the second is to continue serving in the army.

If he was just a regimental commander or something like that today, He Daming would definitely choose to change his career without hesitation, just like He Yuzhu.

Because the number of New China's military personnel is currently quite large, the competition is relatively fierce, especially among low-level officers.

If you choose to transfer to the first batch, you can basically be assigned to the same level, or even half a level higher.

But now He Daming is a deputy army commander. If he continues to serve in the army, then when the time comes to award ranks, he will at least be ranked as a colonel or major general. This is not comparable to transferring to the local area. This is an honor that will accompany you for a lifetime.

Furthermore, if he chooses to change his career, he will most likely start at at least the department level or vice-ministerial level.

But He Daming had no experience in being an official. Moreover, his foundation was very shallow, he had no mountain culture, and he had no background. In such a situation, even if he was appointed to a local position, it would most likely be a sinecure, and he would not be able to make any progress throughout his life.

And if he is unlucky, he may be assigned to some remote areas, or even areas where there are many wealthy families or gentry. Not only will he find it difficult to achieve anything, he may also be targeted.

For this reason, He Daming decided to continue serving in the army and would never retire. Even if he did, he would wait until the awarding of military ranks was completed.

After considering his future direction, He Daming closed his eyes and fell asleep.

................................

One week later, the main forces under the 1th Corps began to withdraw from North Korea back to China. Since it was a secret withdrawal, there was no large-scale welcome and no reports. Everything was very low-key.

The 40th Army, where He Yuzhu was located, first headed north and then arrived in Andong City.

After arriving in Andong City, corresponding staff came to inquire about the personal wishes of officers and soldiers from various units of the 13th Corps, whether they were considering transferring to civilian jobs or continuing to serve in their original units.

He Yuzhu naturally chose to change his career without any hesitation.

Since China currently adopts a system of allocation based on place of origin, He Yuzhu is currently a native of 49 cities, so naturally he will be assigned to work in 49 cities.

However, in order to find out what specific position he would hold, He Yuzhu had to go to the local personnel bureau with a letter of introduction for demobilized military personnel issued by the army to inquire about the specific scheduling arrangements and introduce him to the corresponding unit.

Due to the backward conditions in the country and inconvenient communications, neither He Yuzhu nor He Daming have sent a single letter in these years.

As for the current situation of the courtyard house, He Yuzhu and his friends knew nothing about it.

Because he applied for demobilization, He Yuzhu did not immediately follow the main force to transfer, but instead stayed in Andong City for a few days.

Because there are quite a few people applying for transfer, the military staff engaged in related work are very busy and often have to work overtime. The purpose is to arrange the corresponding letters of introduction to these soldiers and officers as soon as possible.

Three days later, He Yuzhu finally got his own demobilization letter and boarded a military train to return to 3 cities........................

On the other hand, He Daming had just received a notice from the military, asking him to attend a routine military meeting.

He hurried to the military command post, where cadres at the division level and above were already ready.

Qin Wei, the army commander, presided over the meeting.

“Ladies and gentlemen, the Korean War is over for now, and this is cause for celebration.

In addition, our army has received the latest order from the Zhisi, which requires our 15th Army to go to the northernmost port of North Korea to participate in the work of repairing the port. "

He Daming looked at the location of Qingjing Port on the map of North Korea and couldn't help but smile bitterly. It was another deserted place. He guessed that they were asked to participate in the aid operation.

As for the other three division commanders and the political commissar Gu Sheng, they all looked unhappy because after they learned the news that the 3th Corps was returning home, they were all itching to go home. It would be a lie to say that they didn't miss home. Who doesn't miss home?

However, when they thought about helping these North Koreans build homes, there was naturally no joy on their faces.

When Army Commander Qin Wei saw that everyone looked depressed, he immediately told them the second half of the news.

"Everyone, the commander-in-chief has specifically instructed that when our 15th Army has repaired this quiet harbor and put it into use, we will arrange for our 15th Army to return home."

Everyone present, including He Daming, brightened up instantly after hearing the news. This was not too bad good news.

Afterwards, the 15th Army of the Volunteer Army moved northward towards Qingjing City.

You should know that Cheongjing City is currently the third most important city in North Korea. Its Cheongjing Port has a very special geographical location. It borders Fuso Sea, Haishangwai and other places. To the north is the Soviet Union and to the south of the sea is Fuso. It is also the largest seaport in North Korea.

Such an important facility is naturally the first object to be repaired.
