Urban Special Troop - C58

Hou Yongdong had once joined an emergency squad, so defeating these two bodyguards was no problem at all. Within a few rounds, those two bodyguards had been defeated by Hou Yongdong. Zhao Xiao Qiang sized up the rank 1 officer in front of him, who had a rough appearance and a dignified appearance, and threw him an appreciative gaze. Alright, that’s him! ” Zhao Xiao Qiang had decided at that time.

“However, you have to wait for me for three months, I have to take care of my family matters!” Hou Yongdong wore a strange expression on his face.

Captain Wu explained, “There are some matters in Hou Yongdong’s family. If it wasn’t for this, he wouldn’t have retired earlier this year!”

Zhao Xiaoqiang’s face changed as he muttered, “Three months, three months —” Then he suddenly said, “Fine, three months is three months, I’ll wait for you!” Zhao Xiaoqiang stood up and shook hands with Hou Yongdong. Hou Yongdong smiled gently and did not say another word.

Shao could tell from Hou Yongdong’s expression that he didn’t like the job, but his family was facing an unprecedented crisis right now. His father had been tempted by someone else, had been infected with drugs, had been locked up in a detention center, and was in debt to a huge amount of money. His mother had also suffered from a serious illness and was bedridden.

In a few more days, it would be the day for the veterans to retire.

Taking off their epaulettes and flowers, changing into plain clothes, this period of time was the most complicated for the veterans. A few days before leaving the army, Hou Yongdong gave the squadron a report with over 30,000 words of information, mainly about his own experience and management experience during his four years in the army. Shao Xi then understood the real reason why he was always elusive. It turned out that he had used the days before he left the army to leave the squadron with a priceless spiritual wealth. This incident had a great impact on the squadron. The cadres were quite moved, the veterans who were about to retire from the army were still so concerned about the squadron’s development, and had even left such valuable experience for the squadron.

Speaking of the most touching scene in the army, it was the scene of when the veterans were discharged from the army. The vehicles that were carrying the veterans had been waiting in the squadron for a long time. The veterans were looking at the familiar barracks, the familiar road, and the familiar faces with tears in their eyes. A few years of war friendship, condensed into many reluctant tears. Sing a song, “An Ironworks Battalion is a Flowing Water Soldier”, with endless nostalgia overflowing from his heart…

Remember when I left home

into the army with a youthful dream

Time is running like water

In the blink of an eye, I will retire from the army and return home

Farewell to brotherly comrade-in-arms

Walking out of the steaming barracks

Look back at the familiar barracks

Experience once again imprinted on one’s heart

I can’t forget the first time I held a steel gun in my hand

I can’t forget the first emergency meeting

I can’t forget the taste of my first visit

I can’t forget the tears when I think of home late last night during the new year

“I’ve had a lot of pain, but I never regret it.”

How much sweat, but I never feel tired

An army in the middle of a river, a soldier in the middle of a river

I really, really don’t want to leave the army

At this moment, how much more to say and how much to do before leaving this place that has been here for a few years? My dear comrades, take care … The soldiers who saw them off and the veterans who were about to get on the vehicles were all crying like they were about to cry. White light flashed across the eyes of the cadres as well. Shao Xi thought of the care and help that Hou Yongdong had given him. His heart was filled with endless grief, and tears started to fall from his eyes. He held on tightly to Hou Yongdong.

“Shao Xi, you brat, work hard for me. I’ll wait for your good news!” Hou Yongdong fiercely patted Shao Xi on the shoulder.

“Shao nodded with all his might while Hou Yongdong wiped away his tears.” “Why are you crying? I’ll come see you when I have the chance. I must remember, I hope that the next time I come, you can have a new breakthrough. But it’s not bad now, you became the backbone of the new recruits!” Hou Yongdong praised, but his eyes were also filled with tears.

“I will, captain. I will not disappoint your teachings and hope. I will definitely do my best in the Special Guard Regiment. I definitely will!” Shao felt that perhaps the most gratifying thing for Hou Yongdong at this time was his own growth progress. If he were to become outstanding in the army, Hou Yongdong would definitely feel happy and proud. After all, he was the one who led the troops!

Hou Yongdong nodded deeply.

Liu Bing, Zhao Gang, and Wang Tian came to wait for the recruits that Yongdong had brought. The veterans of each division all surrounded him, hugging each other. The scene was extremely touching. The company’s cadres also bid farewell one by one to the veterans who were about to get on the bus. Their faces were covered in a layer of white moisture.

Time would not slow down just because of nostalgia. Under the watchful eyes of Chang Na, the veterans got into the limousine. This meant that, perhaps, these familiar figures would never be seen again in the future.

Shao Xi chased the limousine a long way.

However, the car still left his sight step by step.

After that, the waving hands in the car gradually disappeared as well.

After that, only memories remained.

The barracks began to empty, and then the squadron began to merge together, effectively rearranging the bones, and Shao and Lan Dawei continued to work together as his lieutenants. Following that, the squadron held a general meeting to rectify the situation. According to the usual practice, after the veterans were demobilized each year, they would undergo a general rectification, a complete disciplinary reformation, and a strict punishment for all kinds of disciplinary violations. After all, in the days when veterans were demobilized, the troops would always feel a little relaxed, so in order to restore the work to its original state, it was necessary to give the relaxed soldiers a wake-up call and reorganize themselves.

This reorganization was scheduled for four months, all the way until the next batch of recruits came down from the squadron. Actually, this time’s great reorganization was also to let the new recruits, who were in the process of transitioning to a veteran, experience a qualitative leap in their qualities. Therefore, this period of rectification was also the stage for the overall quality of the soldiers to improve.

However, being the backbone, Shao felt particularly appropriate. After all, he was now a step closer to his goal. Lan Dawei was not a very responsible person, he always liked to pass on the command and training of his unit to Shao Xi. Shao Xi never refused, even though he only had a dozen people under him, he still couldn’t help but get excited, he imagined that one day, he would become a special guard for his country!

However, Shao Xi did not expect that his life had gradually become a major turning point!

While on duty, Shao could still meet Brother Xu and his Little Mi, as well as Auntie Cheng and Little Ying. However, after not seeing them for a few months, Shao felt that Auntie Cheng had aged quite a bit. Moreover, Auntie Cheng never mentioned the incident to Shao Xi again.

There was a popular saying in the army: Veterans are demobilized, recruits are celebrating the new year!

That’s right, now that the veterans have retired, the recruits would naturally become veterans. They would no longer have to fear being seen by others when smoking, and their thoughts would no longer have to be as restrained as before. However, what made Shao Xi angry was that Liu Bing had been too relaxed ever since he left the army. In broad daylight, while standing guard, he actually chatted with Little Mi of Brother Xu. Shao Xi had reminded him many times, but he always looked down on Liu Bing. This made Shao Xi somewhat embarrassed. After all, Liu Bing was his squad’s warrior. If he couldn’t control him, then it would mean that he was incompetent.

Shao Xi felt that it was necessary to have a good talk with Liu Bing!
