Chapter 440: Devil toon Leader


    Trantor: Dragon Boat Trantion Editor: Dragon Boat Trantion


    On March 1st, another significant event urred on the international stage.


    Across the vast ocean, the membership of LBY in the Human Rights Council was suspended.


    Essentially, this meant that Colonel Kardashev, for now, had his qualifications as a person revoked…


    However, this matter had no connection whatsoever to Wang Ye at the moment.


    The domestic evacuation of citizens couldn’t possibly involve these battle-hardened veterans from the southern region.


    Moreover, Wang Ye had no mood to think about Colonel Kardashev’s affairs right now.


    Standing below the Criminal Investigation Company building, Wang Ye, at this moment, seemedpletely indifferent to the worn-out clothes, pants, and even the calloused hands and feet of the soldiers in front of him.


    “Do you think I, Wang Ye, am a fool for trying to reason with you? Are you satisfied with what I’m doing now?”


    Each reconnaissance soldier had sweat dripping down their faces, looking haggard and fatigued.


    But no one dared to speak.


    At this moment, they didn’t even have the energy to curse in their hearts.


    Too exhausted.


    Wandering around the camp, it took nearly three hours.


    Very tired, very painful.


    However, Wang Ye had no sympathy for them whatsoever.


    Continuing with a stern expression, Wang Ye spoke up, “Your hands and feet may be hurting from the abrasions, right? But that’s better than losing your life on the battlefield.”


    Pausing for a moment, Wang Ye continued to reprimand them, “You’re not invincible, so what’s there to be so arrogant about? With your mindset before entering the battlefield, you still consider yourselves reconnaissance soldiers? If you go to the battlefield with your previous mentality, you might as well be running home ahead of others to deliver your own heads!”


    “Report!” In the midst of the soldiers in front of him, ance corporal suddenly looked at Wang Ye with anger in his eyes and shouted out a report.


    Wang Ye stared at him and asked, “You don’t agree with what I just said, do you?”


    “Yes!” The reconnaissance soldier affirmed through gritted teeth.


    Then, he continued to look at Wang Ye with determination and said in a deep voice, “Sir, you can deny our performance under yourmand because we did have failures, but you can’t say that we’repletely worthless. In our years of military service, our years of sweat and toil, I don’t believe that just because we hit the battlefield, we be the useless pawns you make us out to be.”


    “Heh,” Wang Yeughed, but it was a chillingughter.


    Staring at him, Wang Ye questioned, “Is there a difference? Even if you can attribute our previous failures to my leadership, what about this year? And don’t tell me that one minor mistake negates your years of hard work. Do you think the enemies on the battlefield will care about these things?”


    Wang Ye’s voice grew louder, and he sharply scanned all of them, saying, “1 see that some of you are truly beyond help! Reconnaissance soldiers? Years of hard work? Do you focus only on your muscles and not your brains?”


    Wang Ye’s scolding was so loud that someone in an office on the second floor was now twitching at the corner of their mouth.


    He was scolding the soldiers of the second toon, but he was their toon leader!


    The entire toon had been trained under his leadership.


    Scolding the soldiers below, the sound was now reaching him. Was there any difference between scolding them and scolding himself?


    But he had nothing to say. He even wanted to go down there and personally kick the reconnaissance soldier who had spoken.


    Were their minds muddled? Could a reconnaissance soldier say such things?


    Downstairs, Wang Ye didn’t care at all whether the people in the dormitory building could hear his scolding.


    It didn’t matter.


    Looking at the group of reconnaissance soldiers in front of him, he continued to shout loudly, “You still im to be reconnaissance soldiers? Don’t you know what we’re here for? Don’t you understand the mission we shoulder?”


    Pointing his finger at them, Wang Ye was practically spitting in their faces as he said, “We are the frontline on the battlefield. We are the eyes on the battlefield. Our mission is to gather enemy intelligence.


    And whether the gathering of intelligence is meticulous or not, and whether the mission is sessful or not, will directly impact the oue of a war.


    This is our task and our mission.”


    Pausing for a moment, Wang Ye continued his tirade, “Yes, you may think that your previous mistakes were just minor ones. But you need to understand that on the battlefield, one small mistake can cost you your life and the failure of a mission can affect the oue of an entire war.


    Effort? Does effort matter?


    If a mission fails, it fails. Do you think the battlefield will give you a second chance because you put in effort and hand you a bottle of regret medicine to start over?


    Do you not understand the fleeting nature of opportunities on the battlefield?


    Do you keep saying you’re notpletely worthless?


    Can’t deny your effort?


    What kind of effort did you put in?


    Is this the result of your effort?”


    At that moment, thence corporal who had spoken earlier turned red in the face.


    But they had been silenced by his words, and the others were in the same boat.


    Wang Ye paused for a moment.


    Honestly, Wang Ye was truly infuriated right now.


    These guys, he felt like their mindset was all wrong.


    Perhaps they had enjoyed peace for too long, mistaking a soldier’s training for their mission and forgetting that the purpose of training was for war.


    Looking at them, Wang Ye spoke again, “Honestly, you’ve disappointed me. I initially thought you were the elite of our Iron Bones Hero Regiment. I even thought that maybe you had a bit of arrogance and looked down on new recruits before, and that’s why things went south under mymand due to poor leadership. But now, upon closer inspection, I realize that you guys have a real problem, a significant problem, deep within your core.”


    Wang Ye’s voice grew louder again, so loud that they all lowered their heads in silence.


    But Wang Ye paid no mind and continued his scolding, “As reconnaissance soldiers, you haven’t even figured out why you’re wearing this uniform and standing here as soldiers. Look at your ranks—one or two are on par with my years of service, and for the rest, in terms of service years, I should be addressing you as toon sergeants.


    But what about you?


    Your understanding of a soldier is even worse than mine, a so-called new recruit in your eyes.”


    At this point, Wang Ye’s tone became somewhat deste, and he turned away from them, waving his hand, “Forget it, go back. Get your wounds treated at the medical room, and after dinner, rewrite your reflections on how you view the role of reconnaissance soldiers for me tonight.


    1 hope this time you take it seriously and don’t let me be thoroughly disappointed.”


    “OldFu!”


    Upstairs, just a few seconds after the second toon had been dismissed, the door to the toon leader’s office was pushed open by the toon’s instructor.


    “Did you hear?”


    The toon leader sighed with a bitter smile.


    The instructor nodded solemnly, “What Wang Ye said makes sense. In fact, he’s not just talking about the second toon; our entirepany, even our whole reiment, seems to have this issue!”


    “More than just our regiment!” the toon leader shook his head and sighed.


    “They’re right. We’ve had too much peace, and war has been too distant for everyone. Even though people often say that soldiers are born for war, the overall environment now has disconnected us from actualbat. Even the training exercises often feel like we’re just following a script.”


    The instructor, with a serious expression, continued, “We may not have control over other units, but we can’t afford to ck off ourselves. Now that we’ve identified the problem, we need to find a solution as soon as possible!”


    Fu Wei nodded as he looked at the instructor, “I understand, but our purpose is to defend our homnd in peace. We can’t just decide to break the peace for the sake of improvingbat readiness and maintaining abat mindset, can we? Besides, is this something you and I can decide?”


    Fu Wei’s words made the instructor sigh and smile helplessly.


    Indeed, the purpose of our country’s soldiers is to maintain peace. It’s not possible to deliberately disrupt that peace just because we’ve had peace for too long.


    At this moment, Fu Wei thought for a moment and then spoke, “So, let’s not interfere with the second toon for now. Let’s watch how Wang Ye trains them. At the same time, we can also follow up on some of his training methods. For example, what he said today and the reflections he asked the second toon to write. Although these things don’t directly prepare us forbat, they will definitely have some utility. Constantly reminding everyone of their mission and original intentions, incorporating them into our daily training, will definitely enhance ourbat readiness!”


    “Alright, I’ll take care of the ideological aspect!” the instructor immediately nodded.


    “Hiss, ss Leader, be gentle!”


    Inside ss Six’s room, after everyone had gone upstairs, they took off their clothes, cleaned their wounds, and then began to help each other apply iodine and bandages.


    For these simple abrasions, although Wang Ye suggested they go to the medical room, they couldn’t actually go. If they did, they would definitely be teased by the sanitary personnel, especially since one of them was known to have a background as a traditional veterinarian.


    So they had to take care of it themselves in their dormitory.


    Currently, the soldiers from the three sses of the second toon were each busy in their respective dormitories.


    There wasn’t much conversation, and no one wasining about anything.


    Even though Wang Ye was in ss Four, not the fifth or sixth, everyone in the fifth and ss Six was also very quiet.


    Wang Ye’s words had stung them just now.


    They wanted toin now, they wanted to vent, but when it came to speaking, they realized they didn’t even know how to start.


    Inside ss Four’s dormitory, just as Wang Ye had finished storing his luggage and was about to make his bed.


    “Report!”


    Suddenly, a voice came from the doorway behind him.


    Wang Ye turned to look.


    It was the ss Leader from ss Five who called, but it seemed like there was someone else behind him.


    “What’s the matter!”


    Wang Ye stood up straight and walked over.


    The next moment, Wang Ye saw that indeed there were two soldiers following the ss Leader from ss Five.


    “ss Leader, these two were with ss Leader Tian at the farm earlier. The instructor told them to return first.”


    “ss Leader, hello!”


    The two soldiers looked at Wang Ye and saluted with serious faces.


    Wang Ye looked at them; both were nonmissioned officers, one was ance corporal and the other was a corporal.


    “Which squads are you from?”


    Wang Ye wasn’t aware of this situation, thinking that his toon had only twenty-four soldiers, and now there were two more.


    “Report, I’m from ss Five!”


    “Report, I’m from ss Four!”


    “Alright, those from ss Four cane in, and the one from ss Five, you take them back!” Wang Ye directed hisst words to the ss Leader from ss Five.


    “Yes, sir!”


    The ss Leader from ss Five saluted and then led the corporal from his squad away.


    Thence corporal from ss Four who remained looked a bit cautious as he walked into the dormitory.


    “ss Leader!”


    He greeted the ss Leader of ss Four who wasing towards him.


    The ss Leader of ss Four gave Wang Ye a quick nod and then turned to thence corporal who had just arrived.


    At this point, Wang Ye addressed him again, “Go put down your backpack, and then have your ss Leader tell you what happened today and what you need to doter.”


    “Yes, sir!” Thence corporal replied crisply.


    Although they had just returned, they both felt that something was amiss when they entered the camp gate earlier.


    The guards at the gate gave them sympathetic looks, and even the soldier on duty downstairs did the same.


    Later, when they arrived at ss Five’s door first before heading to ss Four’s, they saw soldiers applying ointment with their bare arms.


    This made them nervous. They had just taken up their positions today, right?


    But now, looking around, they saw that there wasn’t a single soldier in the entirepany who wasn’t injured. ss Five was like this, and now their own squad was the same.


    “Alright, continue with the bandaging, but I want to get to know each of you, so let’s introduce ourselves one by one now!”


    Wang Ye took out a piece of paper and a pen.


    He didn’t know most of the soldiers in the toon yet, and since he had some time now, he wanted to start with this basic task..
