Chapter 309: An Old Acquaintance in the Militia

In the 1980s, China had become the sixth largest industrial country, and the production capacity of bicycles was fully able to meet the needs of ordinary people.
But you still need a ticket to buy a bicycle.

This has resulted in ordinary people not being able to own their own bicycles at will.
Either you find an opportunity to get a bicycle ticket, or you have to go to the black market to buy those illegal bikes, or find a way to build one yourself.

This is completely different from the current situation where bicycles are not available due to insufficient production capacity.

As for what He Daqing said about him finding connections,
He Yuzhu thought this was also a solution. Anyway, the bicycle tickets had not been issued yet. If others could do it, why couldn't he, He Yuzhu, do it?

"Okay, Dad!

Then I will go visit those old acquaintances in a few days to see if there is a chance to get one."

After talking to He Daqing, He Yuzhu continued to talk about his plan.

"Dad, when you go to work at Fengze Garden later, please tell Manager Mou that I have to report to the militia first, and then go to Fengze Garden."

"It's no problem for me to tell Manager Mou for you.
But when will you come back after you go to the militia? Can you give me an exact time?
We can’t let Manager Mou keep waiting!”

“How would I know that!

In case the militia has other arrangements, I will tell you a specific time. This will delay Manager Mou's work.
Or you can ask him not to wait,
Anyway, my task today is to report, so I might as well wait for him."

Hearing his son say this, He Daqing thought about it and realized that who knows what will happen next. It would be useless to say anything now.

"Okay, I know how to tell Manager Mou."

After getting off the bus, He Yuzhu walked all the way to the militia's office, took out the letter of introduction issued by the State Council and gave it to the comrade in the security department.

"Hello, comrade. I am here to report today. Here is my letter of introduction."

Seeing the letter of introduction handed over by He Yuzhu, the comrade from the security department saluted first, then took it and checked it.
After reading the contents of the letter of introduction, he saluted again and then said with a smile,

"Hello, Captain He, Captain Ma told us early this morning that you would report here, and we will take you in when you arrive.
plz follow me. "

"Thank you for your help, comrade."

He Yuzhu followed this comrade named Wang Shouquan towards the office building, chatting with him.

Soon under his leadership, they arrived at the militia captain's office.

"report!"

"Come in."

"Deputy Captain He is here to report the arrival of the cavalry."

"Hello, Captain Ma. He Yuzhu has been ordered to report to you."

As soon as He Yuzhu finished his salute, he heard Captain Ma, who was sitting behind his desk, burst into laughter.

"You are such a jerk, I was right about you.

He has made so many contributions right after arriving at the front line, and now he has come to our militia to serve as my deputy captain."

He Yuzhu was surprised to find that the militia captain Ma who looked up at him and smiled was actually the former director of the Public Security Bureau, Ma Yongqiu. After a moment of hesitation, he said,
"Director Ma, didn't you used to be the director of the Chaoyangmen branch?

How did you get transferred to the militia to be the captain? "

However, Ma Yongqiu did not answer He Yuzhu's question immediately, but looked at Wang Shouquan who had just brought him over and said,

"Xiao Wang, you go back first! I want to catch up with Zhuzi."

"Yes, the cavalry." After Wang Shouquan left, Ma Yongqiu signaled He Yuzhu to close the office door, and then said with a smile,

"Not long after you went to the front, I also went to the peninsula.

But I came back earlier than you. I was among the first batch of people who returned to China last year.

After I came back, there was no place for me at the Public Security Bureau, so they assigned me to the militia.

When the State Council informed me a few days ago that you would come to our militia to serve as deputy captain and artillery instructor, I was so happy.
You are a precious child now.

I heard from Lin Zheng that you shot down a lot of planes of the coalition forces and captured a lot of pilots at the front line.

In just two or three years, he had risen to the position of group leader.

You are much better than we were back then.

How about you tell Brother Ma about your life on the front line, how you fired your anti-aircraft gun, and why it was so powerful?

You have to teach our militia comrades a lesson this time."

Today's militia is not the pension department of later generations.
It's a real combat unit.

After returning from the frontline on the peninsula, Ma Yongqiu was transferred to the militia as a captain, and he had reason to be happy.
Not to mention that when all citizens become soldiers in a few years, the status of the militia will rise sharply.

But when Ma Yongqiu asked me to talk about my experience in the army,

He Yuzhu felt that there was nothing much to say.

"Brother Ma, I'm not that great.

That is to say, my comrades cooperated well, and I was lucky enough to survive to the end on the battlefield, so I seemed to be so powerful.

Speaking of meritorious service, if I didn’t have the cooperation of my comrades, I wouldn’t be able to handle an anti-aircraft gun by myself! "

"Don't be so modest, boy.
I admit that you are right about the operation of weapons. It is the result of teamwork.

But what about taking prisoners?

I heard from the comrades above that there were quite a few American pilots, but you and your comrades captured them with your own hands.

Do you know that those pilots you captured are now playing a big role?

This time, we, Daxia, negotiated with Milijian, but we used these pilots to exchange for many scientists who were under house arrest by Milijian.

This is a real benefit.

Not to mention that when you captured the pilot, you also shot down a number of armed helicopters that came to rescue.
Even though they were in tatters, the wreckage of these helicopters brought back helped our military industry and those old Russian experts a lot.
Even the research progress in this area has been accelerated a lot,
Maybe it won’t be long before we have our own helicopter.”

He Yuzhu, who already knew the direction of history, knew exactly which pilots the captured pilots of the joint forces could be brought back.
Since he had shot down the joint forces' plane and had a chance to capture the pilots, He Yuzhu naturally had to do his best.

There is no possibility of letting them go.

So when He Yuzhu heard Ma Yongqiu say that the higher-ups were negotiating with Mi Lijian to exchange the captured pilots for the scientists, he just pretended to be a little surprised.
And because it might involve confidential information, he did not ask.

But when he heard Ma Yongqiu say that the helicopter wreckage he dragged back from the battlefield with great difficulty could actually be helpful to the military industry,

When it was even possible that the research could be done soon, He Yuzhu was really surprised.
