Chapter 433: Report at the Battalion Special Forces toon
Trantor: Dragon Boat Trantion Editor: Dragon Boat Trantion
“They’ve really crossed the line this time!”
In the dormitory building of the police reconnaissance team, someone was discreetly peering out from a corner of the window upstairs.
In another corner across the window ledge, there were others doing the same.
Upon hearing these words from across the way, a reconnaissance soldier there immediately whispered, “Indeed, our toon leader has gone to raise pigs, and viting regtions like this is nothing!”
“All right, stop clinging to the window ledge; you better watch out for our toon leadering to discipline youter!”
Today, in the Criminal Investigation Company, no one was going out because new recruits were joining.
Of course, there were no weing ceremonies for the new recruits in the Criminal Investigation Company today.
No fanfare, no decorations; all that could be seen were the soldiers from the second toon standing downstairs.
The soldiers from the third toon had no idea why they were being punished by having to stand there today, but they didn’t dare to ask.
“The new recruits are here!” someone by the window suddenly eximed.
Immediately, other veterans who hadn’t been peeking at the window came over as well.
They were curious about what the new recruit looked like.
Even though she wasn’t a fair and beautiful female officer, the mundane military life made any bit of novelty interesting.
Even the toon leader who had originally told them not to hang onto the window ledge had nowe over.
“Is this the Criminal Investigation Company? I see people waiting downstairs. Are they here to wee us?” whispered one of the new recruits from the first toon, following Jiang Huai and Han Yi.
“It should be. Get ready for a warm wee!” replied the new recruit from the third toon who hade over with them, chuckling softly.
Among the three of them, Han Yi was probably the least excited. The other two knew they were joining the strongest direct subordinatepany in the regiment and were still in high spirits. However, reality often differed from imagination.
Soon, the three of them noticed that as they approached, the people standing downstairs hadn’t moved at all. They all had stern expressions, and some even had their heads down.
At the front of the formation, Fu Wei watched as Jiang Huai approached. He squinted his eyes, and when Jiang Huai saluted upon reaching him, Fu Wei immediately asked, “Where’s Wang Ye?”
“Huh?” Jiang Huai was momentarily confused. He had no idea what thepanymander meant, as Fu Wei hadn’t told him about Wang Ye bing the second toon leader.
After regaining hisposure, he replied truthfully, “Wang Ye and the people from the fourth toon went back!”
“All right!” Fu Wei nodded. In fact, he had suspected this even before seeing Wang Ye. Without dy, he shouted upstairs, “Third toon Leader,e down and take these three new recruits to your toon!”
“Yes!”
The third toon leader responded from upstairs and quickly made his way down.
As he descended the stairs, a triumphant smile graced his face. He couldn’t believe his luck; all three of the excellent soldiers who had trained in their regiment this year were assigned to his toon. He felt ecstatic and thankful for this unexpected gift from fate.
However, his smile was only on disy while he was running down the stairs. By the time he reached the first floor, his expression had turned extremely serious.
Thepanymander had been in a bad mood these past few days, and the second toon was still on punishment duty. If he kept grinning, he was sure to get a scoldingter.
Arriving in front of Fu Wei and Jiang Huai, he saluted them and exchanged the necessary formalities before leading the somewhat puzzled Han Yi and the other two away.
What’s going on here?
Aren’t they here to wee us?
Why is everyone so serious? They haven’t even said a word, let alone apuse.
Han Yi and the other two new recruits were feeling quite puzzled.
Especially the two new recruits from the first and third toons who had expected a warm wee but were now influenced by the tense atmosphere, feeling a bit nervous.
“You,e with me!” After Fu Wei had taken the three new recruits to the third toon, he nced at the people from the second toon standing there, said a brief sentence to Jiang Huai, and then turned away without addressing the others.
“Yes!” Jiang Huai, too, was starting to feel a sense of intrigue. What on earth was going on? Why was thepanymander suddenly so concerned about Wang Ye?
But soon enough, he figured it out.
Wang Ye wasing to lead the second toon?
This news stunned Jiang Huai. It was one thing for Wang Ye to lead a new recruit toon, as he had already been promoted to second lieutenant, which would allow him to take charge of such a unit. However, the reconnaissancepany was no ordinary unit. If Wang Ye didn’t get a special promotion, he would still be a second lieutenant, and this meant he would be leading a toon filled with nonmissioned officers, which was entirely different from leading a toon of new recruits.
“What’s with that expression?” Fu Wei scolded Jiang Huai in a low voice. “It’s your kind of attitude that’s causing ourpany’sbat readiness to deteriorate. Do you think reconnaissance soldiers are something special? Superior to others? Aren’t we all carrying the same load on our shoulders? Look at what you’ve be. Arrogant and full of yourself, two years in a row messing up under the new recruits. I’m ashamed of you now!” Fu Wei didn’t wait for Jiang Huai to respond and just went on with his scolding.
Jiang Huai was left speechless as he stared at Fu Wei. What’s going on? I didn’t say anything! But he dared not argue or utter a word now. He understood that thepanymander was simply venting his frustration.
Seeing Jiang Huai’s silence, Fu Wei stopped scolding him. He continued, “Enough. I called you over to tell you about this matter, and also because Wang Ye hasn’t led experienced soldiers before. He’s unfamiliar with the work of an experienced toon. So when he arrives, keep a close eye on the second toon’s work. However, don’t interfere with his management. Just observe. If you find something wrong or unreasonable, don’t approach him directly. Report it to me first, understood?”
“Yes, sir!” Jiang Huai saluted.
But even after saluting, he couldn’t hold back his curiosity. “What about Tian Feng?”
Immediately, Fu Wei red at him again. “What about him? He’s on a ‘cooling-off period’! Let him reflect thoroughly at the pig farm. If he reflects well, when Wang Ye leaves, he’ll have a chance to lead troops again. If he doesn’t reflect well, he should be prepared to feed pigs until he retires!”
Jiang Huai was left speechless once more. He felt a bit of sympathy for Tian Feng, but he didn’t dare to plead on his behalf, especially given the current situation. Wang Ye’s assignment was the regimentalmander’s order, and there was no ce for Tian Feng in the toon right now. Besides, he believed that the current Tian Feng might prefer to feed pigs for a while rather thane back and face thepanymander.
“You’re going to be a toon leader in the Criminal Investigation Company?”
Back in the Fourth Company, in ss Eight’s dormitory, Peng Yuhang and the others widened their eyes in surprise, and even Zhou Qi looked at him in astonishment.
Jiang Huai had no prior knowledge of this situation. Wang Ye chuckled and said, “Yeah.”
He was somewhat helpless. As soon as he entered the dormitory, Peng Yuhang and the others were eager to help him with his bags and unpacking. Naturally, Wang Ye couldn’t allow that. He still had to leave.
After stopping them, Wang Ye didn’t hide the fact that he was about to leave. He told them about his assignment as the acting toon leader in the Criminal Investigation Company.
“Wow, Brother Wang, you’re so awesome!” Peng Yuhang eximed.
“Shh, keep it down!” Wang Ye signaled for him to be quiet.
Then he continued with a smile, “Only our ss Eight knows about this for now. 1 don’t like too much fuss. After 1 finish lunch, I’ll sneak away when you guys are resting!”
“Old Wang, you’re truly incredible!” Li Bing also praised him, smiling.
He genuinely admired Wang Ye. After serving in the military for several years, he had never seen anyone quite like Wang Ye.
Looking at Wang Ye’s peers from the same batch, who were still in basic training, he couldn’t help but think that they must be relieved to have someone to take over some of their chores. But Wang Ye, from the same batch, had already be an officer and was now going to lead reconnaissance soldiers, which was quite extraordinary.
What a gap!
“This is a great opportunity, and such chances are rare, especially before you go to military school. Work hard!” Zhou Qi patted Wang Ye on the shoulder and encouraged him with a smile.
Meng Wenbin chimed in immediately, “What ss Leader Zhou said is right. Military school can be quiteplex. With this experience, you’ll stand out in the challenging environment of the military academy. This experience is invaluable!”
While saying these words, Meng Wenbin couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. Back when he was in military school, he was always seen as the junior by the soldiers from regr units. Those who came from the same region as he did were initially not taken seriously by the soldiers from regr units. They were even mocked by them during the early training days. Now, when he thought about Wang Ye’s uing experience in military school, he couldn’t help but feel that they were livingpletely different lives.
In reality, the most astonished person in ss Eight dormitory was the new recruit who hadn’t dared to speak up.
The standout from the sixth toon of new recruits, at this moment, had his eyes wide open.
However, in ss Eight’s dormitory, he wasn’t particrly close to the others, so even though he heard this astonishing news, he didn’t dare to say anything. Instead, he silently admired the toon leader in his heart: “The toon leader is amazing!”
After lunch, two figures walked side by side within the camp.
Wang Ye had a backpack on his back and was carrying luggage, while Wu Jianfeng walked beside him with empty hands.
“Theirbat capabilities are actually quite strong. Reconnaissance soldiers, not to mention other things, definitely excel in basic physical fitness and skill masterypared to ordinary toons. I think the issues they’ve faced may be more about mindset. So, when you go there, focus on how to rectify their mindset!” Wu Jianfeng spoke to Wang Ye as they walked, analyzing the situation of the reconnaissance toon to help Wang Ye prepare for his new role.
Wang Ye nodded and said, “Yes, 1 feel the same way. I’ve already thought of some specific ns.” He then turned to Wu Jianfeng with a smile. “Company Commander, can I ask you for a favor?”
When he was alone with Wu Jianfeng, Wang Ye preferred to address him as “Company Commander,” creating a more familiar and close atmosphere.
Wu Jianfeng looked over and said, “Go ahead!”
He hade specifically to find Wang Ye after they finished lunch, knowing that Wang Ye was still in the Fourth Company.
Wang Ye continued, “Company Commander, could you arrange for the Second Battalion to participate in some joint exercises with us in the near future?”
As he said this, he quickly added, “You know,bat is the best way to testbat readiness. Although exercises aren’t realbat, they still reveal a lot. This would help me understand their truebat capabilities and then strengthen their weaknesses. Plus, it would benefit the Second Battalion by helping our soldiers improve theirbat readiness through the exercises.”
“No problem!” Wu Jianfeng readily agreed.
He paused for a moment and continued, “Even if you hadn’t mentioned it, I was already thinking along those lines. You’re my soldier, and now that you’re going to lead the reconnaissance toon, it’s a matter of pride for me too. I’ll naturally help you get a solid footing. Don’t worry, this is no big deal. However, the entire regiment is currently receiving new recruits, so if you want to have a meaningful exercise, you should let the new recruits get used to each other first. Let’s discuss it again in about two weeks and pick a suitable time!”
“Great! Thank you, Company Commander!” Wang Ye immediately agreed.
Two weeks seemed like an appropriate time frame, and he could use this period to get familiar with the situation in the Second toon.
“Alright, the Criminal Investigation Company is just ahead. 1 won’t go in with you. If you need anything,e to the Second Battalion or give me a call!”
“Okay, thanks for yourpany, Company Commander! Best wishes for a son in your future!”
“Haha!”
Wu Jianfeng didn’t take offense at all. Instead, heughed heartily. Being rtively young, he indeed had ns for a family in the near future.
“Alright, go on. Remember, once you’re at the reconnaissance toon, toughen up and don’t embarrass me!”
“OK!” Wang Ye made an “OK” gesture and then walked ahead on his own.
There wasn’t much sentiment involved in this transition. It wasn’t like he was leaving the military or the unit; he was simply transferring to a different toon.
Soon, Wang Ye made his way to the building in question, and it was at that moment he noticed the soldiers standing in formation in front of it. They all seemed visibly drained, their spirits low as sweat trickled down under the scorching sun.
Wang Ye was taken aback. What’s going on?
As he spotted them, they noticed him as well. In an instant, the formation straightened up, and when Wang Ye, wearing a puzzled expression, walked closer, an abrupt and resounding chorus rang out.
“Hello, toon Leader!”
“Hmm?” At that moment, even Wu Jianfeng, who had just turned to leave for the Second Battalion, was startled and turned back, equally surprised..
