Chapter 58 Bloodstained Demeanor (30) One-on-one guards
Guo Kaiqing's security work was like going to work, and Platoon Commander Dong did not feel sorry for him, so he bought a second-hand bicycle and went back and forth between his home and the chief's general building.
Chen Shuqin's side is far more idle than Guo Kaiqing, after taking three days off, she immediately went to report to the head of the personnel section, and the new job she got was an office staff in the material department, and the level was at the department level, which was far beyond Chen Shuqin's imagination.
"My good man, I said section chief, I was the main department as soon as I came, is there any mistake, aren't you also a section chief, a section-level cadre, in my hometown, it is equivalent to the level of the secretary of the township party committee." Chen Shuqin can't get rid of her habit of asking questions.
"That's right, the instructions from above, you are at the regular level, and it was your lover who was originally transferred, right? Another document was added, he didn't come, there was reuse, and if you came, he would take his place. The head of the personnel section explained to Chen Shuqin.
"I see, that's good."
In fact, the work of the materials department is not fully staffed. The first and second leaders are on the way to the capital, and the daily presiding officer is an old clerk at the division level, he saw that Chen Shuqin was a female comrade, so he avoided suspicion and arranged her to a separate office, as soon as he entered the door, Chen Shuqin shouted, "Oh, this office is bigger than our township secretary." β
The old clerk said with a smile, "This is small, the director has not yet come to report, theirs is called big, and each room has more than 20 square meters." β
When his wife roughly told Guo Kaiqing about the situation of his workplace, Guo Kaiqing thought that the chief asked him to come to the "National Security Bureau" to take care of him, and with his qualifications, it would be quite good to be given a regular level, but he was also very happy, it must be just as Director Zhu said at the time. It's not easy to take off your military uniform and put it on again.
The guard platoon of the chief's general building is called the guard platoon, and there is a small sign hanging at the door, but none of the people who come here to stand guard are soldiers, which Guo Kaiqing discovered when he stood guard on the first day, because these guards are 100% cadres of the "four pockets".
Guo Kaiqing is not an inquisitive person, he only cares about the post he is standing on, and he also respects other comrades-in-arms, he is like this. He believes that Guo Kaiqing is a sensible person who does not make comrades-in-arms, which is the most necessary for security work.
For many days, Chen Shuqin and Guo Kaiqing. No matter who gets off work early, they will find time to clean their own small yard and make room for it, and the two of them also live with seasonal vegetables. The little days were very sweet. When she was sleeping, Chen Shuqin always thought of her son who was far away from home, and she inevitably nagged in front of Guo Kaiqing. But Guo Kaiqing also understood his wife's mood and helped her explain it at the same time. also gave her some more men's warmth.
Due to Chen Shuqin's physical reasons, she can't go to the "ring". They are also people of good physique, every time they come for a while. Chen Shuqin had to go to the hospital to do a "human abortion", this kind of thing is really unspeakable, but fortunately, later family planning measures also hit with the torrent of reform and opening up, and they also used free "condoms". It's not that they didn't use it before, it's that the thing was too expensive when it first came out, and the price of a box was far from acceptable to them, so they had to send money back to their hometown to raise their son who didn't hold it for a few days.
The head of the security department is still very busy, and the guards around him are also constantly rotating, and generally a guard will be replaced after working by the chief's side for a period of time. Only Platoon Commander Dong and Guo Kaiqing are like an iron-clad battalion and flowing soldiers, and they have not been changed for more than a year.
The guard platoon was divided into three squads, each of which had a squad leader and a deputy squad leader. However, Guo Kaiqing does not belong to these three classes, he is alone, he and several classes of comrades-in-arms have stood on guard, and I also learned from their mouths that these people are all outstanding grassroots commanders in the army, most of them are directly sent to the military academy for study after the chief has finished standing here, and the most bullish one has also attended the seven-year doctoral class of the "Central Committee-Military Academy." (Note: The central-central-military academy proposed in this article is to avoid mentioning the relevant military academies, so it is renamed).
Although there are many colleagues, all the war materials sent to various provinces and cities must be distributed and shipped through them, and Chen Shuqin is also happy about this, only in this way can she forget her son.
What is ridiculous is that because the personnel of the newly formed "State Security Bureau" are quite complex, there are soldiers, public security officers, and local comrades, and their clothing is even more varied, not to mention that they wear their own previous uniforms, and even their shoes and hats are ever-changing.
Guo Kaiqing's salary is still a deputy company, and his is far less than Chen Shuqin's, and whenever he hands over his salary to his wife, he feels a little embarrassed. But his wife said, "My salary is yours, you don't have to be embarrassed, anyway, we don't spend money to eat, at most we can send some to our son." β
Not as high as his wife's salary, Guo Kaiqing's compensation method at home is to do more tiring work and heavy work, he originally didn't like to cook, but now he is also self-taught, not only bought books to study, but also when he got up in the morning, he bought bean juice and oil early, although he doesn't like to drink bean juice, but Chen Shuqin loves to drink, he still reluctantly eats this.
The chief's business trip has not taken Guo Kaiqing with him, which made Guo Kaiqing very disappointed. He secretly thought that the chief must still remember his "hatred", even when the guard was standing guard, the chief's car drove over, he deliberately stood up so that the chief could see him as much as possible, but the chief sitting in the car still didn't say anything, which made Guo Kaiqing's idea even firmer.
The following year during the Qingming Festival, Secretary Song found Guo Kaiqing, "You prepare, say hello to your lover, we will go on a business trip at noon tomorrow, and you will be responsible for the chief's security work." β
After hearing this, Guo Kaiqing was so happy that he almost jumped up, and immediately asked Platoon Commander Dong for leave and went back to prepare.
At night, when Guo Kaiqing told his wife the news, his wife was also happy for him, "This is an opportunity, you have to behave well." Don't let the chief find fault, dead horses and live horses, that's the end of this one. β
"Well, I'll do a good job."
Surprisingly, when Guo Kaiqing came to the general's building in the morning, Secretary Song handed him a local suit, "This time it's a secret mission, you can change it, you are the only one in the guards, and I won't go." When the chief comes out, you will go. β
Guo Kaiqing didn't dare to ask more, changed his clothes in the fastest time, and took off his pair of "three-pointed" leather shoes and put on cloth shoes made in the capital.
At eleven o'clock at noon, when Guo Kaiqing was waiting impatiently downstairs, an old man walked down from upstairs. I saw that he was dressed in a worker's costume and wore a half-worn "forward hat" on his head, although the leather shoes he wore under his feet were polished. But at first glance, it was a shoe for many years, and Guo Kaiqing recognized it at a glance, this is Zhang Wenzhi's father, the chief.
After seeing the chief, Guo Kaiqing nodded his head. I just wanted to say, "Hello chief." But the chief waved his hand at him, "Excuse me, remember, this time we are out." You call me uncle, don't call the chief, do you hear me? β
Guo Kaiqing didn't dare to ask more. Nodded earnestly.
This is an ordinary green train, Guo Kaiqing and the chief sit on the hard seat, the old man is in a particularly good mood today, keep teasing the children in the neighboring seats, and when passing by Beijing and Tianjin, he also bought two famous "hemp flowers." β
Guo Kaiqing knew that the train was going to City A, but as a guard, of course he and the chief couldn't ask in detail, and he kept dealing with the chief's requirements, such as turning on the water and buying things like beer sausages.
When the people next to him saw Guo Kaiqing like this, they said to the chief, "This is your son, it's really filial." β
The chief didn't refute when he heard it, he just looked at Guo Kaiqing and smiled, "Well, this is my little five, I usually don't do this, but now I do it for others to see, this kid is disobedient, but it's a donkey." β
Guo Kaiqing didn't expect the chief's accent to change, and he spoke the local dialect of City A, but he still kept a state of not asking and went directly to City A.
After getting off the train, the chief led Guo Kaiqing and found an ordinary guest house to live in, and they asked for a room, Guo Kaiqing thought that the chief must have lived with him for his own safety.
Listening to Secretary Song, the chief usually sleeps very late, usually until late at night, but today has changed, before nine o'clock in the evening, the chief urged to turn off the lights and sleep, he saw Guo Kaiqing is lying in his clothes, so he said, "Xiao Guo, why don't you take off your clothes and go to sleep." β
"It's okay, that's good."
"Take it off."
Seeing that the chief ordered himself, Guo Kaiqing took off his coat and shoes and fell down by the door.
"It's all off, it's all off, you wear so many clothes when you sleep."
Guo Kaiqing saw that the chief was only wearing a vest, so he had to take off his vest and underpants, so they spent the night.
In the early morning of the next day, the chief took Guo Kaiqing to have breakfast and came to the most famous "martyr's cemetery" in City A. Guo Kaiqing thought that it was time to sweep the graves of the dead.
The chief stood beside a martyr's grave and stopped, and began to sweep it, and when he had finished cleaning, he laid out the food and flowers he had bought in advance, and finally the chief lit three cigarettes and placed them on the incense burner, and he himself lit one.
"Old partner, it's Qingming again, I've come to see you, and this time I also brought you a new comrade-in-arms." The chief muttered to himself.
"This little friend is very honest, his name is Guo Kaiqing, I asked him to come and see you."
"Heyβcome here." The chief waved his hand to Guo Kaiqing, who was standing in the aisle in the distance, and Guo Kaiqing saw that he was calling him, and ran to the tombstone.
"You also bow three times, this is your senior."
Before Guo Kaiqing could see whose name was written on the stele, he received an order from the chief.
After the salute, the chief drove Guo Kaiqing back to the position where he was standing, Guo Kaiqing was also very knowledgeable, what people said to the old people, of course, they couldn't let him know the Tao.
On the way back, the chief pulled Guo Kaiqing to sit on a bench, at first Guo Kaiqing was still polite, ready to stand and answer, but later let the chief hold it down.
"I heard that you are also from City A, and your father was also a soldier, have you ever been here?"
"When I was a child, I often came here, and the school organized activities, first visiting the 918 Memorial Hall, and then coming here to visit the grave."
"Then do you know who is buried here?"
"I don't know much about this, I was very young at that time, and when I got to middle school, the school didn't organize it."
"Qiu Shaoyun, Huang Jiguang is buried here, have you heard of these two people?"
"It's so familiar, it's all in my textbooks when I was in school." Guo Kaiqing really didn't expect that the characters in the textbook were buried here, why didn't the teacher say it when he explained it to them at that time.
"Don't you want to know who the person I worshipped just now is?"
Guo Kaiqing didn't think it would be a matter of answering, he didn't speak.
"I told you, I should have been lying here, and it was because of that person that I survived and had the opportunity to come here to see him for thirty years."
Then the chief told the story.
It turned out that the chief joined the army in the late stage of the War of Resistance Against Japan, when he was only a teenager, and then the War of Liberation, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, at that time he was already a grassroots officer, when their troops entered the Korean War, full staff, the chief was received by the head of the headquarters because of his great merit, and the head of the headquarters was received by the head of the headquarters because of his great merit, and the one he paid tribute to was their battalion commander, that is, he proposed to let the chief transfer to the security department, there were many South Korean spies on the battlefield, and often they would infiltrate our army to engage in sabotage activities. On the recommendation of the battalion commander, the chief joined the team and left the original unit.
But just a few days after he left the army, his original unit and the US army conducted an "encounter", fierce can be imagined, almost all the cadres and soldiers of the battalion were sacrificed in that battle, that is, the chief left a few days early, survived, from then on, the head who returned to the country, every Qingming, will come to pay tribute to his comrades-in-arms, because most of the comrades-in-arms can not be found, only the battalion commander has a name.
"Xiao Guozi, you are also a person who has been through the battlefield, I transferred you out, the original purpose was to keep you away from the battlefield, I hope you don't go to the front line again, don't sacrifice there, you are still very young, the construction of the army in the future will depend on you people who have experience in war to take care of it, but you are not a good soldier, at least all actions can not be done by listening to the command, you really make me very sad."
Hearing this, Guo Kaiqing's tears welled up, he stood up and stood in front of the chief, "I was wrong, I promise in the future to be a qualified soldier." β
"Do you know what you kid said, your god-old man, who saved my life back then, that is, he spoke to help you intercede, so I gave him this face, so it's okay, I'm done paying back the favor, don't work with me when you go back, I have arranged your new job for you."
Guo Kaiqing wanted to say something, but the chief waved his hand, "I know that your father is also old, but this time I won't let you go home, let's go back to the capital first, and then give you a few days off, and then you will come back." β
After returning to the capital, Guo Kaiqing, under the guidance of Secretary Song, came to a department of the army in the capital to report, and the department leader gave Guo Kaiqing a month's leave in accordance with the instructions of the chief, and asked him to go back to City A to see his father, and then come back. In this way, Guo Kaiqing changed to a new job. (To be continued......)
