Siheyuan: Back to 50 years ago, Shazhu joined the army

When He Yuzhu saw the leader in front of him asking for his opinion, he knew that this guy wanted to talk to him, but he was still thinking about the system's reward, so how could he be bound by him here? He immediately refused.

"Leader, I appreciate your kindness, but I still want to join the volunteer army and make my own contribution. When I return from the battle, I will cook Tan's dishes for you every day."

When the middle-aged man heard He Yuzhu's answer, he was obviously not satisfied, and his originally smiling face turned a little cold.

He Daqing, who was good at observing people's expressions, immediately kicked He Yuzhu's calf.

"You little bastard, the leader meant well, but you dared to refuse. I think you are getting cocky."

After saying this, he pretended to hit He Yuzhu.

The middle-aged man standing by immediately stopped him when he saw this.

"Stop it! Daqing, forget it, since your son is determined to join the army, then I will do as he wishes.

But I have to say this beforehand, the battlefield on the front line is more difficult than you can imagine, so don’t be a deserter, otherwise, hehehe…"

He Daqing naturally understood what the middle-aged man meant, and he immediately knelt on the ground, and pulled He Yuzhu beside him to kneel together.

"Boss, don't worry, this kind of thing will never happen. Besides, I am willing to cook for you during this period of time."

When the middle-aged man heard these words, his eyes lit up instantly and his face lit up with joy.

"Daqing, are you serious?"

He Daqing nodded helplessly.

"really!"

The middle-aged man said, "Okay! It's a deal then. I'll take care of your son's affairs. Wait for my good news in the next few days."

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

Then He Daqing and He Yuzhu left.

On the way back, He Yuzhu looked at his cheap father with a complicated expression.

He knew that his father He Daqing had paid a heavy price for his action just now.

He took the initiative to express his concern for him.

"Dad, why did you agree to be the chef for that leader? What about Aunt Bai? What will you do?"

He Daqing was also quite surprised when he heard what He Yuzhu said. He sighed lightly and told He Yuzhu earnestly,

"Zhu Zi, you little brat, you still have the nerve to say that. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be willing to be the chef.

To put it bluntly, I just hope that the leader can arrange you to a good place for my sake. You have never experienced the hardships of war, and you think that if you join the volunteer army, you will have good food to eat. In temperatures of dozens of degrees below zero, you will still have to eat frozen potatoes and fried flour. The conditions are extremely difficult.

I don't want you to suffer. You have already offended the leader by rejecting his proposal. If I hadn't volunteered to be his chef, I'm afraid you would not be a cook, but a member of the death squad. When you go to the battlefield, remember to write more letters home when you have time. Remember to take good care of yourself. Also, remember one thing: people are treacherous, so be more careful with people and things. You have a bad temper and speak your mind, so it's easy to offend people........."

When He Yuzhu heard what his father He Daqing said, he realized that his father really cared about him and had his best interests at heart.

This made him think of one of the most classic sayings in later generations, which is that apart from your parents, no one wants you to live a good life.

It seems that I have watched too many TV dramas and have misunderstood the character of He Daqing. It seems that he is a good and responsible father.

In October 1950, the Northeast Frontier Defense Army was directly reorganized into the People's Volunteer Army, with senior leaders serving as commanders in batches, preparing to enter North Korea to fight.

He Yuzhu successfully became a member of the Glorious Volunteer Army under the arrangement of his father He Daqing.

On the day of departure, He Yuzhu, accompanied by his father He Daqing and his sister He Yushui, boarded the train to a foreign country.

"Dad, don't see me off. I'm leaving."

He Daqing couldn't help but burst into tears when he heard this.

"Zhu Zi, you must protect yourself when you go alone. Don't try to be brave. You must come back safely. Yu Shui and I are waiting for you at home."

He Yuzhu couldn't help but shed tears when he heard what He Daqing said. Although the two had not spent much time together, the blood relationship and the true love between father and son revealed by He Daqing moved He Yuzhu a little.

"Dad, Yushui, don't worry, I will definitely come back safely."

As the whistle sounded, the train started slowly. He Daqing and He Yushui waved goodbye to He Yuzhu.

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

The next day, the train He Yuzhu was on arrived in Andong City smoothly.

After getting off the train, a large number of aspiring young people like him who signed up to join the volunteer army gathered here.

He also took the letter of introduction and went directly to a leader in charge of the recruitment office. After taking the letter, the leader read it carefully. After reading the contents of the letter, he called a soldier next to him and asked him to take He Yuzhu to a carriage.

At this moment, there were a large number of energetic and high-spirited soldiers standing here. Judging from the unit number, it seemed to be the 38th Army.

Due to the hasty mobilization, most of the soldiers were wearing thin autumn clothes.

The soldier brought He Yuzhu to an officer and whispered a few words to him. The officer's face lit up, and he waved and whispered to a junior officer in the distance.

Then the junior officer quickly ran to He Yuzhu.

"Are you He Yuzhu?"

He Yuzhu nodded.

"Yes, Chief."

The junior officer looked at He Yuzhu carefully, and seeing how immature he was, he couldn't help but show a look of contempt on his face.

"Very young. How old are you?"

“I’m 15 this year!”

He Yuzhu answered loudly.

The junior officers were also quite surprised when they heard this.

"You are really good, you are so young and you want to join the volunteer army."

He Yuzhu: "It is my duty to serve the country!"

The junior officer was also moved when he heard what He Yuzhu said.

"Okay, very good. Your words are very much to my liking. Let me introduce myself again. My name is Zhao Desheng, and I am the commander of the guard company of the 38th Division of the 113th Army. You will be a member of our company from now on. I heard that you are a great cook. Don't let us down when the time comes."

He Yuzhu immediately saluted.
