Siheyuan, my new life

Chapter 24: Commencement of Colonel

Deputy Commander Fang Yuandong accompanied the chief to the SJ Mountain Sanatorium again. In fact, before coming to see Lin Yu, the chief first consulted several experts in charge of the treatment. From them, he learned that Lin Yu's injuries were recovering slowly. In the past year or so, the blood clot in his skull had only shrunk by one thirtieth. Judging from the current situation, it is estimated that there is little hope for Lin Yu to fully recover for a long time. It is suggested that Lin Yu transfer to the local area to recuperate. After all, he cannot continue to stay in the army in his current condition.

The chief was in an extremely depressed mood. If it weren't for this damn blood clot, Lin Yu, such a talented up-and-coming star, would definitely become a mainstay of the army with his talent.

However, the cruel reality forced Lin Yu to change his career. According to experts, once a patient exercises vigorously or is exposed to too much stimulation, it is very likely to cause cerebral hemorrhage and endanger the patient's life.

After seeing Lin Yu, the leader forced a smile. He told Lin Yu that the report on forming a special forces had been approved by the superiors. They would first conduct a pilot project in the army and select a company of elite soldiers for special training according to Lin Yu's training outline. At the same time, the soldiers would be divided into two groups, one group would use "Guben Peiyuan Decoction" and the other group would receive normal training. The training cycle would be half a year, and they would make a decision based on the actual situation at that time.

Lin Yu certainly agrees with this, and only through comparison can the effectiveness of "Guben Peiyuan Decoction" be more prominent. I believe that even the group that did not use "Guben Peiyuan Decoction" will have a huge change in strength after six months of special training.

The chief bluntly told Lin Yu the experts' diagnosis and asked for his personal opinion.

All of this was a deliberate illusion created by Lin Yu himself. In order to have a suitable training environment, he had already considered leaving the army and transferring to the local area. So Lin Yu directly said that he would obey the organization's arrangements and was willing to contribute to the New Dragon Country in his new position.

The chief reluctantly told Lin Yu to continue recuperating here with peace of mind, and he would report to his superiors when he returned and make proper arrangements.

After the leader and Deputy Commander Fang left, Lin Yu couldn't help but let out a heavy breath. He really had enough of staying here.

Although the living conditions in the sanatorium are good, you cannot move freely. Except for going to the canteen to eat at noon, you have to stay in the villa most of the time.

Although Lin Yu needs a considerable amount of time to practice every day, humans are social animals after all. How can they endure being trapped in such a semi-closed environment for a long time?

Now Lin Yu's Qi Refining Realm has reached the early stage of the Golden Core, his body refining is still at the Copper Skin and Iron Bones Realm, and his spirit refining is still at the late stage of the Mahayana. According to Lin Yu's plan, and after consulting Zhou Tian and others, before the Qi Refining breaks through the Nascent Soul Stage, the body refining realm will not be improved.

On September 30, 1955, Deputy Commander Fang came to the sanatorium again. A few days after the leader returned half a year ago, he called and told Lin Yu that the troops were preparing to officially confer ranks, and asked him to retire after the rank was conferred.

Lin Yu could feel the leader's kindness. After all, being formally awarded a rank was a great honor for a soldier.

The awarding ceremony was held in the conference room of the sanatorium. In addition to Deputy Commander Fang and Lin Yu, the leaders of the sanatorium and all the "patients" who were recuperating here were present.

Deputy Commander Fang Yuandong, who was wearing a Type 55 army uniform and holding the rank of colonel, solemnly read out Junwei's appointment letter, then saluted Lin Yu solemnly, and personally awarded Lin Yu, who was also wearing a Type 55 army uniform, the rank of colonel. Warm applause immediately broke out at the scene.

After the brief awarding ceremony, Lin Yu and Deputy Commander Fang returned to Villa No. 12 together. There was not much politeness between them. After the two sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette, Deputy Commander Fang said straight to the point: "Lin Yu, your transfer has been approved by your superiors. You are now a colonel and deputy chief of staff of the division. Your administrative level is level 13. You will enjoy deputy bureau-level treatment after transfer to the local area. The basic salary is 159 yuan per month, the disability allowance is 72 yuan per month, and the military merit, military service and other allowances are 55 yuan per month, totaling 286 yuan."

Lin Yu took a deep puff of his cigarette and said with some sadness: "Lao Fang, to be honest, I don't care about the treatment or the money. It's just that I feel very uncomfortable when I think about leaving the army and leaving those comrades who have shared life and death with me."

Deputy Commander Fang patted Lin Yu on the shoulder and sighed, "This can't be helped. The last time the commander came back from your place, he got drunk. At that time, he said he really couldn't bear to let you leave the army. But all good things must come to an end. The most important thing for you now is to recover as soon as possible. We didn't fall on the battlefield, and we can't be knocked down by this small blood clot."

Lin Yu put the cigarette in his hand into the ashtray and sighed in a frustrated tone: "Tell me, Mr. Fang, where will the organization arrange for me to work? To be honest, I have had enough of staying in the sanatorium. It would be nice to have a unit to work for."

Deputy Commander Fang could also understand Lin Yu's depressed mood at this time. A rising star in the army who was daring to fight, brave and quick-witted, was now retired due to injury. Not to mention Lin Yu himself, even several leaders were sighing. He had heard the leaders say with his own ears that after Lin Yu recovered from his injury and returned to the team, he would send him to the Military Academy for further studies. Obviously, the leaders intended to make up for Lin Yu's shortcomings in academic qualifications. Since Lin Yu joined the army at the age of sixteen, although he later participated in cultural study classes in the army and obtained a junior high school diploma, if he wanted to become the backbone of the army in the future, he must have a considerable cultural level. With the current situation of our army with strong soldiers and horses and many brave generals, a person with too low cultural level simply does not have much chance.

Unfortunately, fate plays tricks on people. The optimistic estimates of the experts at Union Hospital have now been shattered by the ruthless reality. The blood clot in Lin Yu's brain has hardly shrunk in the past year. I am afraid it will be difficult to completely recover in the future unless a miracle happens. In fact, the report on Lin Yu's condition is not only known to the leaders, but the consultation report of the experts at Union Hospital has also appeared on the desk of the main leaders of Junwei.

What Lin Yu didn't know was that at the recently held enlarged meeting of the military, after discussing the topic of promoting the construction of special forces throughout the army, a leader mentioned the placement of Lin Yu. At that time, the leader argued with reason and made a detailed report to the military leaders present on Lin Yu's contribution to the construction of special forces and the comparative effect of "Guben Peiyuan Decoction". He believed that Lin Yu should be given some time to recover. Such an outstanding rising star should not be easily abandoned.

The six or seven military chiefs present at the meeting also spoke up to express their support. These military chiefs were all "fellow patients" who had come into contact with Lin Yu in the sanatorium. Through their personal contact with Lin Yu, they all believed that he was a rare rising star. Even if his body could not recover at present, they could let him take on some work within his capacity.

Obviously, the military leaders did not expect that a young deputy chief of staff of the division could be recognized by so many veteran generals in the army, so they temporarily shelved this issue, and after the meeting, they sent someone to the SJ Mountain Sanatorium to seek Lin Yu's opinion.

Of course Lin Yu would not continue to stay in the army. This was a plan he had made long ago, so he immediately expressed his willingness to obey the organization's arrangements. However, if he continued to stay in the army in his current state, he would only become a burden. He was willing to go to the local area and continue to contribute to the New Dragon Country.

After the junwei people left, Lin Yu did not tell Fang Yuandong about this matter, which was also to avoid further changes.

Today, he finally received the news of his transfer. He could practice and live freely in the future. However, Lin Yu suppressed his anticipation and put on an unwilling look in front of Deputy Commander Fang.

Deputy Army Commander Fang Yuandong sighed secretly and said, "You also know that I am now in charge of the resettlement of our military demobilized personnel. The commander conveyed the instructions of the superiors regarding your demobilization. With the special approval of the army, you are allowed to transfer to the local area, retain your military status, serve as an advisor to the special forces working group of the army, and be responsible for the preparation of the "Guben Peiyuan Decoction" needed by the special forces of the entire army in the future. After you go to work in the local area, a special forces battalion will be stationed nearby. In addition to being responsible for ensuring the smooth progress of the preparation work, you will also be responsible for the training of this special forces battalion."

Lin Yu couldn't help but grin when he heard this. The reason why he wanted to change his career was to have a free environment for cultivation. Now looking at this arrangement, it seems that it doesn't match his plan. He quickly asked: "I say, Lao Fang, I handed over all the recipes of Guben Peiyuan Decoction at the beginning. Can't you arrange some experts in traditional Chinese medicine to be responsible for the preparation? Besides, it's too much of a joke to let me be responsible for training a special forces team, right?"

Fang Yuandong glared at him and said, "How do you know that there is no Chinese medicine expert to prepare Guben Peiyuan Decoction? However, the liquid medicine they prepared according to the prescription you provided is not comparable to the one you prepared yourself. The effect is about 30% to 40% worse. Junwei even specially invited Mr. Wu to prepare it, but it still couldn't achieve the effect you prepared. At that time, someone raised doubts, but was retorted by Mr. Wu. Mr. Wu said that the taste of the same meat and vegetables made by a housewife can be compared with that made by a senior chef? He told the Junwei leader on the spot that Lin Yu was the most talented genius in Chinese medicine preparation he had ever seen. Judging from the Guben Peiyuan Decoction prepared by Lin Yu before, Lin Yu's level has now surpassed all of them. The experts present did not object to what Mr. Wu said. After all, there are indeed differences in the efficacy of the finished products prepared by everyone using the same medicinal materials. The efficacy of the Guben Peiyuan Decoction they prepared is quite different from that of the finished product prepared by Mr. Wu, so in the end, this decision was made. You can do more work. In the same way, you proposed the establishment and training outline of the special forces, and the Junwei leaders also want to see the results of your personal training. Considering the actual situation that you need to rest and recuperate, the leaders have instructed to prepare a suitable yard for you to live in nearby. "
