"Okay, there's no need for you to be so serious. There is no task for you now!" Commander Chen waved his hand and let Zhao Cheng relax.

"This is Comrade Zhou Zhennan, deputy commander of the Peking Military Region. You should get to know each other! You will deal with him often in the future!" Commander Chen pointed at the "patriotic" comrade and said to Zhao Cheng.

"Hello, Commander Zhou!" Zhao Cheng saluted Zhou Zhennan.

Zhou Zhennan waved his hand and told Zhao Cheng not to be polite.

"Zhao Cheng, the main reason I called you here this time is to award you a military rank! In view of your achievements on the battlefield in North Korea and your contributions to the special forces you trained, Comrade Tian Huaizhong and I have nominated you, and after approval by the Rank Awarding Committee, we hereby award Comrade Zhao Cheng, the company commander of the 7th Steel Company, 347th Regiment, 116th Division, 39th Army, the rank of major!" The commander took out an honorary certificate, read it solemnly, and handed the certificate to Zhao Cheng.

Zhao Chengdu was a little dumbfounded when he heard the commander's words. He had never expected such a big pie to fall on his head!

"Commander, this is inappropriate, right? I have retired, and now I have returned to the police system, and I am only the director of a police station. I can't afford this honor!" Zhao Cheng did not dare to accept the certificate and said nervously.

Zhao Cheng knew that among the soldiers who had joined the army in the past 30 years or so, eight or nine of them were awarded the rank of captain. How could a latecomer like him qualify for the rank of major?

After hearing what Zhao Cheng said, everyone in the room laughed out loud.

"Oh, Zhao Cheng, you are worrying too much. According to your performance on the North Korean battlefield, you can at most be awarded the rank of captain or major general. But we are all aware of your achievements. Not to mention the contributions you have made in the police system, even the commandos and special forces you trained are worthy of this rank!" Political Commissar Zhao Gang explained to Zhao Cheng with a smile.

"But I've already retired? Am I being re-enlisted?" Zhao Cheng asked very confusedly.

"That's right, you have indeed been re-enlisted! Now you are not only the director of the Xizhimen Police Station in Peking City, but also an instructor of the special brigade under the Peking Military Region! When you encounter training tasks, you have to return to the special brigade to train new recruits!" Zhou Zhennan came to Zhao Cheng and said to Zhao Cheng.

Zhao Cheng looked at the people in the room with expressions that said "I'm optimistic about you", and he also felt that he probably wouldn't have much free time in the future.

I haven't heard of anyone who can hold both military and civilian positions!

"Don't worry, although you are a part-time instructor, you have reported to the higher-ups. The special forces you trained performed very well in the North Korean battlefield, so the leaders in Haizi decided to expand the size of the special forces. If the special forces of the Peking Military Region achieve satisfactory results, the size of the special forces will be further expanded, and we will strive to ensure that each major military region has its own special forces!" Commander Chen said to Zhao Cheng, his eyes full of encouragement.

Zhao Cheng felt that if he didn't agree, the big guys in this room would drag him out and kill him!

"Yes! I guarantee to complete the mission!" Zhao Cheng could only firmly follow Commander Chen's arrangements. However, there was one good thing, that is, he did not have to lead the troops out to fight, he only needed to train the recruits, and he could still be the director of his own police station at other times.

"This is your military uniform. Go to the office next door and change into it!" Tian Huaizhong took out a sandalwood box from behind the desk and handed it to Zhao Cheng.

Zhao Cheng solemnly carried the box to the next office. When Zhao Cheng left Tian Huaizhong's office, he heard the sound of several big men laughing.

"Why is Zhao Cheng so lazy?" Commander Chen shook his head helplessly and said to the people in the room.

"He is a bit lazy, but he can still complete the assigned tasks very well, which is worthy of his status!" Tian Huaizhong could not hide the admiration in his eyes.

"This is the first time I met Zhao Cheng today, but looking at this kid I feel that he has a lot of energy. Being lazy is just his character, but once this kid has made up his mind about something, he will not give up. He is definitely a stubborn guy!" Zhou Zhennan also expressed his opinion on Zhao Cheng.

"Haha, what Old Zhou said is right. This kid is very similar to Li Yunlong. Once he makes up his mind, ten oxen can't pull him back! If he doesn't move forward, he will make you retreat!" Zhao Gang is very good at judging people.

As they were talking, Zhao Cheng returned after changing his clothes. He was wearing a slightly yellow-green tweed jacket, matching pants, black leather shoes, and a wide-brimmed hat! He truly had the aura to pull off his outfit! And it even matched the two bars and one star on his shoulders!

After entering the room, Zhao Cheng saluted all the leaders according to the rules, even Tian Dan was not left out.

"Haha, Zhao Cheng, this outfit suits you just right! You must remember your responsibilities! Don't let us old guys down!" Commander Chen looked at the energetic Zhao Cheng in front of him with even more admiration in his eyes.

"Don't worry, Commander, I will ensure that the mission is completed! I will definitely not let you down!" Zhao Cheng solemnly promised.

After they talked for a while, Commander Chen went back first. After all, he had a lot of things to do there, and his presence today showed how much he valued Zhao Cheng.

After the commander left, Zhao Cheng mainly consulted Zhou Zhennan about the size and organization of the Peking Military Region Special Brigade.

There is also the issue of the scale of instructors and trainees participating in the selection.

Zhao Cheng also learned that the higher-ups were very determined this time. Hundreds of thousands of troops from the entire Beiping Military Region were all involved in the selection process, and the instructors were composed of the special forces that Zhao Cheng had trained before.

Unfortunately, on the battlefield in North Korea, the special forces of more than 80 people trained by Zhao Cheng were divided up by several legions and scattered across the country as seeds, and are currently undergoing small-scale training.

Large-scale training was only conducted in the Peking Military Region, so Zhao Cheng was recruited back. After all, although the people trained by Zhao Cheng were very familiar with the training procedures and subjects, everyone might feel more at ease with Zhao Cheng around.

"Zhao Cheng, the special brigade we plan to form this time requires us to train strictly and strive to further improve all training subjects, so as to set an example for future training in other military regions!" Zhou Zhennan patted Zhao Cheng on the shoulder and lamented the arduous task.

"Commander Zhou, special forces are generally a country's first-level combat readiness force, and they must be able to be deployed to fight at any time and anywhere. Therefore, their scale is destined to be small. The conditions in all aspects of training a real special forces are too harsh. I am a little worried!" Zhao Cheng said.

"Just train with confidence. Our entire military region will protect you and provide you with everything first! Don't worry!" Zhou Zhennan patted his chest and assured Zhao Cheng.

"Okay, then I'll think carefully about what specific subjects need training and what kind of support is needed!" Zhao Cheng had no choice but to agree.
