Zhao Shucheng returned to the Northwest Military Region and went to the reconnaissance camp first. He saw that the barracks, which had been bustling, were now empty.

A row of soldiers, some died, some were seconded. The empty barracks made Zhao Shucheng seem to see the brothers laughing and fighting before they left.

I still remember the youngest recruit who was chasing me and asking me about special operations, but now he has fallen on the battlefield in the south.

Zhong Yuemin and Wu Mantun knew that Zhao Shucheng had returned today, so they came to visit him and saw that Zhao Shucheng had his arm in a sling.

"Ning Wei, you are finally back!" Zhong Yuemin said as he punched Zhao Shucheng in the chest.

Zhao Shucheng grimaced in pain and said, "Captain, please be gentle. I'm still injured!"

When Zhong Yuemin heard what Zhao Shucheng said, he quickly said, "You didn't tell me in advance, is your injury serious?"

"It's okay, I was just bitten, but I may not be able to participate in training in the next period of time."

"That's okay, but we have heard about your experiences and your impressive results. We have to say that you are all great. And the squad leader of the fifth squad is now leading the new special operations team in training. Maybe soon, all of us will become special operations team members."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Maybe, but I may not be able to catch up with the new round of battle. I can only cheer you on from the back."

"What nonsense are you talking about? We are all waiting for you to come back and fight alongside us!"

Zhao Shucheng took a lingering look at the barracks, and was sent to the military hospital for recuperation by Zhong Yuemin and others.

Zhao Shucheng also wanted to ask about the situation of his fallen comrades. Knowing that some of them had very bad family situations, he entrusted all his savings over the years to Zhong Yuemin to send to their families.

Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang went to visit the homes of the fallen comrades on behalf of Zhao Shucheng because Zhao Shucheng could not visit the homes of the fallen comrades in person.

The conditions at the homes of the comrades who lived in the cities were better, but when Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang saw the conditions at the homes of the comrades who lived in remote areas, they felt sorry for them and left all their money to the brothers and sisters of the fallen comrades, not even leaving the money for their return tickets and meals.

When they were preparing to return to the base, they encountered several carjacking thugs on the bus. Seeing their arrogant appearance, the two men naturally could not turn a blind eye.

So when those people dragged the passengers down and beat them, he got off the bus and beat the criminals seriously.

They did not make it public after they came back. It was not until the automobile company sent a banner to the army that Deputy Director Wang learned that they had done such a good deed.

A few months later, Zhao Shucheng successfully recovered and was discharged from the hospital, but the military district was a little undecided about his job arrangement for a while.

The original plan was for Zhao Shucheng to go to university for further studies first, then be promoted to officer, and then work in the special brigade directly under the military region.

But at this time, Zhao Shucheng had a few days off and was planning to take a leave to go out and buy some local specialties.

When Zhao Shucheng was strolling on the street, he suddenly heard someone shouting, "Help, help, help!"

Zhao Shucheng saw a man chasing a woman with a stick in his hand and started beating her.

Zhao Shucheng couldn't really turn a blind eye, so he stepped forward and grabbed the other person's arm, saying, "What are you doing?"

The opponent punched Zhao Shucheng without saying a word. Zhao Shucheng naturally could not indulge him. Because of his previous habit of killing enemies on the battlefield, he kicked him directly. After the opponent fell down, Zhao Shucheng remembered that he was not on the battlefield and should not use so much force.

At this time, the woman who had just been rescued saw the man fall down, and said, "You hit my man, I will fight you!"

Seeing the other party rushing towards him, Zhao Shucheng could not fight back like before. He could only stand there and let the other party tear him apart, using his hands to protect himself.

Soon, the local police received the news and when they arrived, they saw the man lying on the ground and Zhao Shucheng in military uniform.

The man was seriously injured, with three broken ribs. His family was very upset and complained to the army.

When the leaders learned the news, they immediately called Zhao Shucheng over with some disappointment.

"Look at you, Ning Wei. Even if you were brave enough to do something righteous, you should have asked questions before intervening. But you broke three of his ribs with one kick, and he refused to give in. Director He from the Political Department went to apologize in person, but he still refused to do it!"

Zhong Yuemin, Zhao Shucheng's superior, was also here and said, "You kid don't know how to restrain yourself. You can break a tree with one kick, so how can you kick someone? You've caused a big disaster!"

"That woman is just used to being beaten. She feels uncomfortable if she is not beaten. You are meddling in other people's business. You have caused a big disaster!"

Wu Mantun said, "Teacher, I can't figure this out. If I were to encounter this, I would intervene. That guy beat people with a stick and made them roll on the ground. This is simply murder. Anyone with a sense of justice would intervene. Who would have known that they were a couple?"

Zhong Yuemin said: "Battalion Commander, instructor, now that the matter has been clarified, that woman deserves a beating. I want to beat her up."

"Alright, Captain Zhong, this matter is already very tricky, so just leave it alone. Don't come to the hospital with me tomorrow. I've noticed that every time you apologize to someone with a smile, your fists are always clenched. I'm really worried that one day you will lose control."

"This is the only way to deal with this matter. If the superiors had listened to us, everything would have been fine. The problem is that this matter has become a big deal. The decision was made by the Political Department, and it just happened to coincide with the military reform. Ning Wei had just made meritorious service and was about to be recommended for promotion. Now that he has caused such a thing, he will inevitably be punished, and he must be demobilized and transferred to civilian jobs."

Zhong Yuemin was very unhappy when he heard this and said, "Battalion Commander, you also said that this responsibility cannot be entirely blamed on Ning Wei. Why should he be demobilized? In this case, I also want to transfer to civilian work. Why not give this position to me and let Ning Wei stay in the army."

The battalion commander looked at Zhong Yuemin angrily and said, "What nonsense are you talking about, kid? Where do you think this is? Whether to go or stay is not a game. Everything is decided by the organization." Zhao Shucheng saw that Zhong Yuemin was about to quarrel with the battalion commander, so he pulled Zhong Yuemin and said, "Company commander, don't quarrel with the battalion commander. In fact, this is not bad. My life was given by my comrades-in-arms. Their parents are in very difficult conditions. I originally thought that I could do something. It just so happens that I have been demobilized now, and the country also allows individuals to run businesses. I want to give it a try and help my comrades-in-arms' relatives improve their lives."

Zhong Yuemin wanted to say something, but when he saw Zhao Shucheng's serious look, he hesitated and swallowed the words.

Zhong Yuemin was naturally unwilling to accept this, so he went to see Director He himself, hoping to get Zhao Shucheng to stay, but he ended up falling out with Director He and was almost kicked out by Director He.

He Xiaoping also returned to the army, but learned that the art troupe was about to disband because the battle on the front line had come to an end. The troupe held its last performance, which was for the comrades in the field hospital.

She suddenly didn't know what to do, so after thinking it over, she wrote a letter to Zhao Shucheng, asking for his opinion.

Zhao Shucheng didn't expect such a coincidence that they were demobilized at about the same time. After hesitating for a long time, Zhao Shucheng wrote back to He Xiaoping, saying that if she had nowhere to go, she could go to Beijing to find him.

On the day Zhao Shucheng retired from the army, Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang came to the station together to see him off.

"Ning Wei, it's a pity for you. If it weren't for this incident, you might have been transferred to the special operations brigade directly under the military region. You are also considered a veteran of the special forces. Don't you feel unwilling to leave like this?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "There is nothing to be unwilling about. I joined the army and was even able to defend my country and participate in battles. I am much luckier than most of my comrades. Many of them may have served in the army for decades without encountering a battle. Moreover, compared to those comrades who died, I am also much luckier. At least I am still alive, but they will not be able to see the sun tomorrow."

"Brother Yuemin, Brother Haiyang, you are our children. You must work hard in the army and make achievements. Don't let me look down on you."

"What you said is true. We are not as troublesome as you are." Zhang Haiyang said.

Zhong Yuemin nodded and said, "Yes, we are much more mature than you, and we know when to strike. When you go back this time, you must control yourself and don't use your fists to solve problems. This is a lesson for you. You must exercise restraint."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "I understand. In fact, I didn't come to my senses before and counterattacked subconsciously, so I didn't use enough strength. But I will control myself in the future. When I encounter such a situation, I will only use 30% of my strength and will not attack the fatal part."

"In fact, this is also a negative example for my fellow soldiers, letting them know that what they learned in the army are all killing skills. It doesn't matter if they are used on the battlefield, but they must be restrained in normal times."

In fact, Zhao Shucheng felt that if the special forces were to be demobilized, they should be assigned to local units, either the armed police or the public security bureau. After all, these people had a lot of skills, and if they were demobilized directly to local units without any regard, if they encountered the same situation as Ning Wei, they would become a destabilizing factor for society.

Zhao Shucheng returned to the capital and went home first, but saw that his parents and brother were at home, as if they were waiting for Zhao Shucheng's return.

The moment his father saw Zhao Shucheng coming in, he was trembling with excitement, but he quickly suppressed this emotion and said coldly: "You're back!"

"Mom and Dad, I'm back!"

"Tell me about you. We asked you to join the army. What did you do? We don't expect you to become a high-ranking official, but at least you should train in the army for a few more years, right? But what about you? You were almost expelled from the army. I don't even dare to tell others that you are my son."

After hearing this, the mother pulled the father aside and said, "Why are you telling your son this? We know the truth of the matter. Our son was acting bravely this time. He had to leave the army only for the sake of the relationship between the army and the people. He was wronged."

Ning Yong looked at Ning Wei and said, "Boy, I've heard about the battles you participated in. You did a good job. By the way, our army is also planning to set up a special operations team. It would be a good idea for you to go home and give me some advice so that our special operations team can become the strongest special forces."

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "All this is easy to say. I will tell you everything I know when the time comes."

Seeing that Zhao Shucheng was not disappointed, his mother asked cautiously, "Xiaowei, what are you going to do now that you are back? Otherwise, I will find someone to arrange for you to work in the government."

"No. My son can't take the back door. Don't even think about it." The father said excitedly.

Zhao Shucheng also shook his head and said, "Mom and Dad, I don't want to join a government agency. Instead, I want to try my luck out there. The policy is very good now, and I want to see if I can make a name for myself."

"Are you sure? Even if you don't go to the government office, you are a demobilized soldier and can work in a factory."

Zhao Shucheng shook his head and said, "I don't want to go to work and earn a low salary. Besides, as far as I know, most factories are not doing well now, and some can't even pay wages. I want to work hard on my own. Maybe one day, I will become a 10,000 yuan or 100,000 yuan household."

Ning's father and mother didn't think Zhao Shucheng could really do this. They just thought Zhao Shucheng was just being angry. However, they expressed their support and even said that they could lend Zhao Shucheng some money.

Zhao Shucheng was not polite and gave all the money he had to his comrades' families. He was now penniless. Whether doing business or doing anything else, you need to have some money on hand.

However, Zhao Shucheng did not take the money for free. He told his parents that the money was a loan and he would pay them back at the highest interest rate when he earned money.

After Zhao Shucheng rested at home for a few days, he wandered around the city, hoping to find a project to make money. But after wandering around for a while, he didn't know what project to start.

In fact, this era is full of gold for Zhao Shucheng. Not to mention other things, even if Zhao Shucheng sets up a small stall to sell snacks, he can make a lot of money. But this is not challenging for Zhao Shucheng, and it does not meet Zhao Shucheng's previous expectations.

Zhao Shucheng thought about opening a restaurant directly, but the food issue was a big problem. After all, in this era where everything depends on tickets, running a restaurant is too challenging. Not to mention the food tickets for steamed buns and rice, it is not something that their family can save up.

What's more, there is speculation now, so even if you are doing business, you will face considerable challenges.

Unfortunately, time waits for no one. While Zhao Shucheng was still struggling, He Xiaoping wrote a letter to tell Zhao Shucheng that she was ready to come to Beijing to find him and also told him the time of her arrival.

He Xiaoping is here too, so he can't just sit there doing nothing. He has to find her a job. After thinking it over, Zhao Shucheng decided to set up a small stall first to solve the most basic problem of food and clothing, and then look for a suitable business opportunity. (End of this chapter)
