Chapter 107: Iron Blood Fourth Company, Real Soldiers
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Out of Camp.
During the physical training period, instead of heading to the physical training ground, the recruits were led straight out of the new barracks area through the main gate. This unexpected route piqued their curiosity. What was the captain planning to do?
However, as the formation moved forward and the squad leaders followed closely, everyone refrained from muttering or communicating. They could only keep their heads down and run along with the team, shouting ‘one, two, one’.
Before long, the recruits discovered their destination. Ahead of them stood the imposing gate of the Iron Bones Hero Squad. Large red words at the top of the gate sent a chilling ssage, filling the recruits with an iron-blooded killing intent.
To their surprise, they were about to enter the main camp.
Although the new recruits were now officially part of the Iron Bones Hero Regint, they had been residing in a small independent camp adjacent to the Iron Bones Hero Regint’s camp. This neighboring place was unfamiliar to them as they had never set foot there before.
Of course, this exclusion didn’t apply to the service center. Even though they entered the service center through the back, they had never used the main entrance. Their usual routine involved entering and exiting through the back door.
This ti, however, everyone was about to enter through the main gate.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound was familiar, but the recruits rarely heard the distinct noise of a tank engine. This ti, they were in for a visual treat.
“Wow… He looks so impressive!”
As they were led past the edge of the tank training ground, the recruits of the entire company beca thrilled and excited.
The air was perated with the scent of engine oil and diesel.
Surprisingly, nobody found the sll unpleasant.
On the contrary, it acted like a stimulant, pumping up the recruits’ adrenaline.
“I really want to give it a try!” Wang Ye overheard soone’s enthusiastic voice.
“He’s so dashing and gallant!”
Even the class monitors beside the team didn’t attempt to stop the recruits from expressing their awe and excitent.
Wu Jianfeng stood at the side and enthusiastically addressed everyone, “See, this is a real soldier. Skilled in tank driving and battlefield combat.”
Despite the recruits continuing their march, Wu Jianfeng had not brought them here to observe the tanks; they were simply passing by. Nevertheless, this sight ignited a passionate fire within the recruits’ hearts.
Earlier, when Wu Jianfeng had ntioned that they were like kindergartners graduating to elentary school, the recruits weren’t entirely convinced. But now, they were about to shout it out loud themselves.
“We might be like kindergartners, but we’re ready for tank school!”
Alas, that was just a dream.
“One, two, one!”
A group of seasoned soldiers approached them, both teams shouting the familiar cadence while sizing each other up.
The recruits were fixated on the guns the veterans held, studying their armbands, military ranks, and equipnt.
On the other hand, the seasoned soldiers were intrigued by this group of fresh-faced newbies, marveling at their sense of wonder. Notably, the recruits didn’t even carry guns.
As they passed each other, the recruits’ slogan-shouting beca more subdued. They were captivated by the weapons and equipnt on display.
“Rember the slogan!” Wu Jianfeng urged, reminding the recruits to stay focused.
After the encounter with the seasoned soldiers, the first platoon leader let out a powerful roar, snapping the recruits out of their trance as they had been gazing at the others with fascination.
In all honesty, this place felt like a whole new world to the recruits. Although they were now wearing the sa uniforms as the seasoned soldiers, they felt markedly different upon arrival – like two distinct groups.
“Co on! Move it!”
“Run, run quickly!”
As they continued walking, they reached a training ground where soldiers were engaged in various physical exercises. The recruits couldn’t help but be drawn to their energetic movents and agility.
“Is that the 400-ter obstacle course?” Wang Ye questioned, not entirely certain.
Back in their previous camp, the recruits had never experienced such a training ground. The information he had found on the Internet only offered limited details and so images of the obstacle course.
It resembled the infamous 400-ter obstacle course that many veterans claid was more challenging than running five kiloters.
“Company commander, you’re here?” a first lieutenant officer approached as they neared the training ground.
With a smile on his face, the first lieutenant ran to Wu Jianfeng and saluted him before greeting him warmly.
“Yes, blow the whistle!”
“Yes, sir!”
The first lieutenant saluted again, then retrieved the whistle and ran to the training ground to blow it.
“Shh, shh! Gather!”
On the side of the training ground, the recruits had already halted their movents. After the first lieutenant called them to gather, Wu Jianfeng faced the assembled recruits.
“Are you all wondering why 1 brought you here?”
As Wu Jianfeng finished speaking, he turned around and pointed at the team quickly assembling on the training ground.
In that mont, Wu Jianfeng’s pride was evident on his face.
“Let tell you, this is my company, Iron Blood Fourth Company!”
“Do you know why it’s called Iron Blood?”
Wu Jianfeng answered his own question.
“Because our regint is known as the Iron Bones Hero Regint, and in the past, our company contributed the most to earning this regint its heroic reputation, thus earning the na Iron Blood Fourth Company.”
“This is where the most exceptional and elite warriors of the entire team gather. This is the very foundation where the blood of heroes flows and is carried forward.”
“However, 1 must be honest with you. This is a place few of you will have the opportunity to co to in the future.”
The final statent left many recruits speechless.
So recruits were so frustrated that they wanted to retort, saying that Wu Jianfeng could have just stopped after the first two sentences.
“I didn’t want to hear all those fancy nas and explanations. I know this is just a place where they’ll train us to death!”
Wang Ye heard soone muttering behind him, and without even turning his head, he knew exactly who it was, given how familiar he was with this person Yan Zhiming, even though he was standing in the third row.
However, at this mont, Wang Ye wasn’t in the mood to deal with Yan Zhiming’s complaints. Instead, he was focused on observing the team that had gathered in front of him.
‘Is this…’ Are they the troops under my command?
Unlike the other recruits, Wang Ye was aware that he had nearly been assigned to Wu Jianfeng’s company. Thus, he felt a different emotion from the rest of the recruits as he scrutinized the assembled soldiers.
“Do you know why I brought you here?” Wu Jianfeng shouted once again, repeating his earlier question.
“Because I want you to see if you’re really graduates from kindergarten. I want you to witness the difference between you and soldiers with real combat strength.”
After saying this, Wu Jianfeng turned around and confidently strode toward the gathered team.
“Now, it’s your turn to perform. Show these rookies what it truly ans to be a qualified soldier with combat effectiveness. Any objections?”
“Iron Blood Fourth Company, charge ahead! Pursue excellence, be brave, and fight to win! Kill, kill, kill!”
A thunderous slogan echoed across the training ground.
Though the number of soldiers in the Iron Blood Fourth Company was obviously less than that of the recruits, the power behind their shout shook the newcors.
The recruit company had also shouted slogans during their training, but those slogans had felt empty, lacking depth.
However, when the Iron Blood Fourth Company roared their slogan, it felt different. It seed to carry essence, qi, and spirit. Wang Ye felt as if it had a soul, and he could almost sense the sll of blood lingering in the air.
The atmosphere was intense, and the recruits couldn’t help but be awed by the seasoned soldiers’ formidable spirit..
