Chapter 67 Bring Dashan back to Beijing
When I walked to the door of the confinement room, I shouted loudly into it: "Dashan, it's me, Zuo Haojun, open the door. Have you forgotten that I told you? A real man will not escape any difficulties. Look at what you look like now."
The sound inside disappeared. After a while, the door opened and Dashan stood in front of me. Looking at the man in front of me, I really couldn't connect him with Dashan in the past. His deep eye sockets, messy hair, blood-red eyes, and beard all over his face could tell that he hadn't been taken care of for a long time. His body was not as straight as before, and his thin cheeks could no longer see his sturdy appearance in the past.
"Xiaojun, you are here. My grandfather is gone, and the army doesn't want me anymore. What should I do?" Seeing that I, who helped him at the base, came to him, Dashan's eyes gradually became wet.
When I walked to Dashan and saw Dashan like this, I could imagine how much suffering he had suffered for these two things. I stretched out my hands and hugged Dashan tightly, patted Dashan on the back, and said with a little excited tone: "Dashan, it's past, everything is over. Don't you want Grandpa to see what you are now in the Spirit of Heaven, right? Be cheer up, now I'm here, I'll take you away, take you to a new place."
"I won't go, I won't go anywhere. Before my grandfather died, I told me that I would never leave the army for the rest of my life and defend the territory for the country. Now that my grandfather is gone, I can't leave the army. I'm waiting for the leader to give me a favor and don't let me change my career." Dashan shook his head, round eyes and said angrily. After that, he stood up and was about to return to the confinement room.
"Zhang Dashan, stand at attention." He shouted loudly, and the sound was that Political Commissar Huang had just gone out to lead a big man in his 40s.
"Arrival." Dashan stood up subconsciously before he saw the man who called him: "Teacher, are you here to tell me, don't you have to leave here?" Seeing his division commander come to find him, Dashan thought he would not have to leave his beloved army anymore.
"No, you still have to leave here, there is no need to question this." Hearing his division commander's words, Dashan's expression of hope immediately dimmed. "But now things have turned around, you must leave here, but you don't have to leave the army, you can still continue to serve in the army."
"Really? Division Commander, I don't have to leave the army. What does it mean to say I have to leave here?" Dashan asked anxiously when he heard something turned around.
"You have a group of good comrades-in-arms, who will do your best to help you, especially your last comrades-in-arms, who communicated with the superiors." At this point, the division commander turned his eyes and looked at Political Commissar Huang and continued: "Now your relationship has been accepted by other military regions, and it will not leave any stains in your files. Thank you for your comrades-in-arms."
Dashan was very excited when he knew that he didn't have to leave the army. He looked at me, and wanted to say something but didn't know what to say. I walked to the division commander, took Dashan's file bag in the division commander's hand, turned to Dashan and said, "I said that everything will be fine if I come. Dashan, everything has passed, let's live well in the future."
In the next few days, I accompanied Dashan to see Ye Hai away, who had asked for leave. After so many days, Ye Hai's troops were anxious to go back. I accompanied Dashan back to his village since childhood, worshiped Dashan's grandfather, and watched Dashan kneel in front of his grave and shed tears in pain, constantly blaming himself. I also knew that no matter what I said at this time, I could not comfort Dashan's emotions, but just stood behind Dashan and waited silently. After a long time, Dashan kowtowed three times in front of the grave and whispered to the grave: "Grandpa, I did not leave the army. My comrades helped me. I am leaving here. I will come back to see you from time to time."
I also stood in front of Grandpa Dashan's grave, facing this nameless hero, an old man who had participated in countless battles, and a good person who raised an orphan alone. I also bowed respectfully, pulled Dashan, who was kneeling on the ground and said to the grave: "Grandpa Dashan, go with peace of mind. I will take good care of Dashan and treat him as my relative. Don't worry."
I accompanied Dashan back to the old army and said goodbye to my former comrades. Seeing Dashan and his comrades cheering for the successful settlement of the matter, drinking, toasting together, feeling the sadness of parting together, and finally getting drunk together, I deeply felt Dashan’s deep feelings for this army.
When Dashan was dealt with all the matters in Heilongjiang, we were about to return to Tianjing. Political Commissar Huang and his division commander came to see me and Dashan. Political Commissar Huang held my hand and asked me to take good care of Zhou Weimin. Dashan and his division commander over there hugged him tightly.
When I was on the train, I told Dashan to help me train some soldiers, and Su Guo and Wang Zhi were there. Dashan was very happy to hear that he could meet his old comrades and had no objection to my arrangement. I felt relieved and finally no need to train those soldiers. I was considered to be looking for a scapegoat, and I took a deep breath.
Shuang'er, who was sitting opposite me, saw my expression and heard Dashan's words, knew what I was thinking about, and covered her mouth and chuckled. Because there were outsiders, Shuang'er and I didn't talk, pretending not to know each other.
I glared at Shuang'er with my eyes, but it did not stop Shuang'er from teasing her.
When I returned to Tianjing, I originally wanted to take Dashan home to let my family know Dashan, but Dashan refused me and said that I would do some good job of helping the people who helped him, and asked me to take him to the base directly.
Respect Dashan's wishes, I took Dashan directly to the base and introduced him to Sun Tian, informing Sun Tian that these soldiers will be trained by Dashan in the future, and like Sun Tian, I guaranteed that Dashan's level would definitely be able to train these soldiers. Sun Tian did not agree to let Dashan participate in the training plan, and the chief instructor was still me.
I didn't expect to get rid of the training and let the mountains participate in it. With the level of the mountains, I should be much easier.
I asked Su Guo and Wang Zhi to come, and the three of them were very happy to meet. The two were also feeling guilty for not helping Dashan’s experience. Dashan laughed, hugged the two of them, and said with a smile: "Everything has passed. Am I not good? We can be together in the future."
I briefly told the two of them about transferring Dashan’s relationship to the Tianjin Military Region, and then left anxiously to implement the relationship to the Tianjin Military Region, and asked Su Guo and Wang Zhi to take care of Dashan for the time being.
When I came to Zhou Weimin's office in the Tianjing Military Region, I entered the door and picked up Zhou's teacup and drank all the tea water inside, and then said to Zhou Weimin: "Uncle Zhou, thank you. I took the person over, but I won't show you your affection. You helped me, and I will bring you a strong soldier, which is even. When it comes to the loss or I suffer, you have to treat me to dinner." After that, I put Dashan's file bag on Zhou Weimin's desk.
Zhou Weimin was a little amused and laughed at my actions, thinking that this brat just didn't like to owe favors. He was very grateful but he still pretended to be like a quilt. He smiled and said, "Boy, your dad was so anxious that he disappeared without a sound. When I came to me, I realized that you were going to the Northeast. You are so tired. Today I went to Uncle Zhou's house and asked your aunt to make some delicious food for you. Judging from the way you made, it was almost like a mud monkey."
After saying that, he asked the secretary to come in and take Dashan's files away and return them to the Tianjing Military Region. He did not arrange a position for the time being, but only had the rank of captain. After instructing these things, Zhou Weimin saw me leaving, and suddenly said something that almost made me fall to the ground.
