One Thousand One Hundred and Eighty-Four More Difficult to Deal with than Aliens
After more than a week, the supply ship finally returned to the Qiongzhou base, and Ye Han and others finally returned to the Qiongzhou training base.
The Second Airborne Division and the Third Airborne Division all participated in the southward plan, with only a few personnel left behind. Only the First Battalion and the Third Battalion, which had returned earlier, and some backbones of the Fourth Division were in the base.
The Fourth Division was a unit that had just begun to be formed before the implementation of the southward plan. The framework had not been set up yet, and the southward plan suddenly started. All the personnel who were supposed to join the Fourth Division followed the troops southward. Less than half of the officers and less than one-third of the sergeants were in place. In this situation, the Fourth Division could not be established for a while.
It's not just the Fourth Division. After the transfer from Nanyuezhou, the First Division lost two regiments and several directly affiliated units. These vacancies also need to be supplemented by personnel, and the record of the First Division is obvious to all. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a favorite of Huo Qiang. The base will definitely give priority to filling the vacancies of the First Division, which invisibly affects the speed of the formation of the Fourth Division.
Who wouldn't want to have more experienced veterans under his command? But the Fourth Division hasn't even set up its own frame, how can it compete with the First Division?
In short, the commander of the Fourth Division, who was no better than a commander without troops, was very entangled. He wanted to recommend himself and be transferred to the First Division as a regiment commander, even if it was a high-ranking position with a low salary.
Ye Han didn't think so much at all. His only thought was to go home quickly.
Under his command, the returning troops completed the finishing as quickly as possible... The soldiers were more anxious than Ye Han.
After Ye Han gathered the people and briefly summarized a few sentences, the Second Battalion and the Guard Company were disbanded on the spot. The soldiers cheered and rushed out of the base to go home and reunite with their long-lost relatives... The family area was right next to the base, and it only took a few minutes to walk.
Like the soldiers, Ye Han returned home happily and saw his long-lost wife and children.
The moment Bai Xiaoting saw Ye Han, tears flowed uncontrollably and she quickly welcomed Ye Han into the house.
However, the two little guys didn't give him any face and refused to call him dad. They pointed at the photo on the wall and said that this was dad.
Ye Han felt sad and guilty. Tears kept rolling in his eyes and he almost couldn't help crying.
He could command thousands of troops and fight aliens to death, but he didn't know how to get closer to his children.
The two children were already four years old, but the children had been born for so long that Ye Han could count the time he spent with them on his fingers. It was no wonder that the children didn't recognize him as their father.
But he was not in a hurry. The First Division would definitely rest at the base for a while. He believed that he could definitely deal with the two little guys... Happy families are similar. That night, many families were full of laughter and they didn't disperse until midnight.
However, some families were happy and some were sad. Not all families were immersed in joy. There were still some families who spent another sleepless night in tears.
They had a common name - martyrs' relatives.
Ye Han did not forget his fallen comrades. The next morning, he kissed his wife and children goodbye and returned to the base. He recalled all the officers and visited the relatives of the martyrs door to door. He personally visited every household and never missed any one.
The visit was just a formality. Ye Han's real purpose was to listen to the martyrs' relatives' requests. All those he had the right to solve were solved on the spot; all those he could not solve were recorded and solved afterwards. In a word, the heroes would never shed blood and tears!
The problems of the martyrs' relatives mainly focused on several aspects. The first was the treatment issue. The national rationing system was implemented, and the treatment of military relatives was far better than that of civilians. From military relatives to martyrs' relatives, could the previous treatment continue?
The second was the housing issue. It was natural for military relatives to live near the base. After becoming martyrs' relatives, how should the housing problem be solved?
The third was the relocation issue. One of the military's benefits was that military relatives had priority to relocate to the moon under the same conditions. After becoming martyrs' relatives, would there be such an opportunity?
In addition, there are some other miscellaneous issues, such as children's schooling and employment; and whether the conditions for military dependents of appropriate age to join the army can be relaxed...
Ye Han's head was overwhelmed by what he heard.
And he went to visit each family, and he wanted to gather everyone for a meeting and explain the country's policies to them.
But he couldn't do that, so he had to repeat the answers to these questions over and over again.
Ye Han was not the only one who visited the martyrs' families. All officers above the platoon level in the division accompanied him. The basic reason was that irrelevant personnel stayed outside and waited, and all direct officers went in to visit the martyrs' families.
For example, if a soldier in a certain squad of a certain company of a certain battalion of a certain regiment died, then all the squad leaders and platoon leaders up to Ye Han, the division commander, must show up to express their condolences. As long as the person is not dead, they are absolutely not allowed to be absent.
In this way, Ye Han and his men spent several days visiting all the relatives of martyrs, and then spent several more days to solve all the problems that could be solved. Those that could not be solved were reported to the base headquarters in written form, and the base would come forward to solve them. If there were indeed extraordinary requirements, the reasons should be explained in written reports. After the compromise plan was reported, the base would send a special person to negotiate and solve it.
Finally, after the problem was solved, a special person should be sent to follow up, and it must not be a hands-off boss... Everyone knew that the issue of the relatives of martyrs was by no means a trivial matter. It was related not only to the affairs of the soldiers after their death, but also to the vital interests of the relatives of the soldiers.
These days, being a soldier means putting your head on your belt. You might die without a burial place one day. If the worries are not solved, who can work for the country with peace of mind?
Soldiers talk about sacrifice, dedication and honor. To put it bluntly, it's all big truths. Everyone understands this stuff, but soldiers are also human beings. They also have to take care of their parents and relatives. We can't just let soldiers sacrifice and dedicate themselves without giving them the treatment they deserve, right?
In the past, the country didn't have the conditions, but now it's different, so the aftermath work of the Qiongzhou base is very good. 90% of the martyrs' families are satisfied with the base's aftermath arrangements, and only a very small number of people's unreasonable conditions are not met.
It's very rare to be able to do this.
After more than half a month of hard work, Ye Han finally solved the problem of martyrs' families. In the following period of time, the troops received some supplements, but there is still a long way to go before they are full. There are few veterans in the army and many new recruits. It takes time to improve the level of military training and the combat effectiveness. A lot of things have made Ye Han anxious.
His only consolation is that he can find time to go home and stay for a while every night. He also tries to find time to accompany the children. The two little brats have gone from being strangers to being familiar with each other. They finally accepted this strange father. When Ye Han heard the children calling him dad, his heart melted.
However, the time was still too short. The children usually preferred to stick to Bai Xiaoting, which made Ye Han sigh. These two little brats are more difficult to deal with than aliens!
When writing this chapter, I thought of Malipo, the old mother of the martyr Zhao Zhanying, and those dilapidated martyr cemeteries and demolished martyr cemeteries... I don’t want to say more about this, but as a veteran, I sincerely hope that one day, Beijing will pay attention to the affairs of martyrs as much as in the book, and there will be no more sad scenes of martyrs sacrificing for 20 years but their mothers have no money to go to the martyr cemetery. This is not only the sorrow of the martyrs, but also the shame of the country. Above.
