Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Damn, third-class rit, you really got it!”
“Let see, let see!”
“I’m so envious. I wonder if I’ll have the chance to get one in my life!”
In the dormitory, because of the third-class rit that Wang Ye had brought back, the recruits who were originally imrsed in the song “Green Flower in the Army” were instantly awakened.
He didn’t know if they could completely get rid of the aftereffects of Green Flower’s song, but at least everyone was now active.
Other than Deng Hai, who didn’t fit in, everyone else gathered around.
Even Ye Sanshi looked at the military dal and certificate for a while.
This was an honor, and it was sothing that every soldier wanted, including Ye Sanshi.
“Keep up the good work, Wang Ye. Now that you’ve obtained the third-class rit, you’re really missing one more.
If you really win the 400-ter obstacle and get that third-class rit, then you would really have passed the threshold of the military academy and be not far from becoming a real officer!”
Ye Sanshi patted Wang Ye’s shoulder and encouraged him.
“Yes, class monitor, I will work hard!”
Wang Ye couldn’t help but be excited when he heard what he said.
There was still a difference between being a soldier and an officer.
In this life, he wanted to make a na for himself in the army, so he naturally couldn’t stay in the army forever.
After all, no matter how good a soldier was, he was still a soldier.
As for becoming an officer, that was the path to becoming a general.
At 930, the evening roll call was held as usual.
Actually, there was no such event tonight.
In fact, according to the plan, Wu Jianfeng would arrange for everyone to watch a movie after tonight’s preparation party. Then, they would wait until midnight for the entire recruit team to go and rest for the new year.
However, this follow-up of the series of plans had been completely destroyed by a green flower in the army.
“I know that everyone misses ho very much. It’s understandable. Many comrades may have never left ho before, not even their parents, but you have to rember…”
Tonight’s roll call was late, and there wasn’t a requirent to run five kiloters.
Wu Jianfeng gave a simple speech and asked everyone to return to the dormitory.
After that, the instructor ca to each dormitory to visit everyone for a while, reminding everyone to sleep well at night and not to think too much.
However, the motherland song that had been circulating in the camp tonight would not be forgotten that easily.
In the dead of the night, the recruits lay alone on the narrow iron bed, thinking about the comfort of their beds back ho.
Under the situation where their thoughts were flying around, their minds inevitably slipped back to the green flower in the army.
Of course, this situation had nothing to do with Wang Ye.
Before the lights went out, the company commander ca to call Wang Ye again.
Then, Wang Ye took two stools and followed him to the back of the dormitory building.
He wondered where he got the wood.
A fire was lit behind the dormitory building. Wang Ye and the two of them sat there, enjoying the northwest wind and warming themselves by the fire. Then, they sat down and chatted.
He was speechless. Actually, Wang Ye wanted to sleep.
The recruits had only slept for a short ti every day, but they simply did not get enough sleep.
But he ca here to accompany him on the night watch.
Yes, Wu Jianfeng confessed.
He said that he was afraid that soone would try to escape through the window tonight, so he had to keep watch.
However, he was also afraid that he might doze off, so he thought of calling Wang Ye to chat with him to pass the ti.
At that ti, Wang Ye was cursing in his heart.
Fortunately, it was not without benefits.
At least there were a few potatoes and sweet potatoes beside him, as well as a bottle of coke and a bag of lon seeds that Wu Jianfeng had managed to get from the kitchen.
They could eat lon seeds, roast sweet potatoes, and potatoes while chatting.
“Today, your matter has been settled. For your sake, our Battalion Commander has been going to the Regint Headquarters three or four tis a day for three consecutive days,” Wu Jianfeng said with a smile. “Because of you, our regint commander didn’t dare to co to the regint headquarters to work for three days!”
As they chatted, they naturally didn’t maintain their usual seriousness. Wu Jianfeng also shared so amusing stories about Wang Ye.
Wang Ye was imdiately stunned.
“This…”
He was really taken aback.
He had thought about how the Chief of Staff had taken a fancy to him, and how the Company Commander had no way of asking the Battalion Commander for help, and how he had sohow dragged the Chief of Staff to the Regint Commander.
However, he did not expect the story to be like this.
“Haha! Did you not expect it?
Actually, the reason is very simple. Last weekend, 1 went to the regint commander’s house to look for him.
You even brought a box of milk. Give it back to in the future. 1 don’t want the milk anymore. Buy a packet of peanuts!”
“Hehe, alright!” Wang Ye agreed imdiately, mainly because he wanted to hear the next story.
“Haha, what a joke. How can 1 take your money?” Wu Jianfeng laughed.
After he finished laughing, he continued to say, “The regint commander agreed later because I had priority. For you, a soldier, I gave up the opportunity to choose other outstanding recruits.” At this point, he looked at Wang Ye again.
“Kid, you have to work hard for in the future. Do you know that I gave up the opportunity to prioritize other recruits? That ans that when you guys are in the next company, other than you, the other soldiers who perform well will have to be selected by the regint headquarters first.”
“Uh…” Wang Ye was stunned again.
Wang Ye really did not expect Wu Jianfeng to go to such an extent for him.
To be honest, Wang Ye was a little touched at this mont. He knew that Wu Jianfeng was not just his Company Commander, but also a ntor and a friend who genuinely cared about his growth and future.
“Don’t worry, Company Commander. I’ll prove with my actions that you didn’t misjudge and didn’t choose wrongly!” Wang Ye said seriously.
At this mont, Wang Ye had indeed made up his mind. In the future, he would do his best in the company and achieve so remarkable results so that Wu Jianfeng could gain so glory and face.
“Haha, that’s good.”
Wu Jianfeng continued to tell the story. He shared how the regint commander liked to peep, how he was seen by the regint commander and others at the 400-ter obstacle, and how the chief of staff insisted on snatching him away.
Wang Ye was stunned when he heard this.
To be honest, he had never expected that his regint commander would not co to work for these few days because of him. Moreover, the battalion commander, whom he had only t once, had been chased back by the chief of staff several tis a day, and then turned around to be a sticky candy.
“This Battalion Commander of mine looks pretty good!” For so reason, Wang Ye’s impression of the battalion commander, whom he had only t once, also soared. He felt grateful for the opportunities that had co his way and the people who had supported him in his journey.
That night, Wang Ye faithfully accompanied Wu Jianfeng, standing guard outside until three in the morning.
Fortunately, the night passed without any incidents.
There were concerns about possible deserters among the recruits, but Wang Ye and Wu Jianfeng remained vigilant, making sure no one had the opportunity to escape.
The class monitors were on high alert throughout the night, refusing to let sleep overco them. Any slight movent from the recruits was t with open eyes and watchful gazes.
Even the simplest actions like having tea or pouring water were closely observed.
The recruits knew there was no chance of sneaking out through the dormitory windows. Wang Ye had positioned himself strategically, preventing any such attempts.
Whenever soone needed to use the toilet, the class monitor would rise and accompany them to ensure they didn’t try to flee. Such precautions were necessary because there were rumors of recruits on the second floor planning to escape through the dormitory window.
However, every ti soone dared to peek out the window, they would find the company commander seated behind them, keeping a watchful eye with a lit torch or fire.
With such close supervision, there was no chance for anyone to escape. They had no option but to stay put and lie down obediently.
The next day, they had initially planned to take a rest on New Year’s Day.
However, upon waking up and completing their house chores, she found herself being pulled to the classroom after breakfast.
The morning was dedicated to attending classes, with the instructor doing their best to keep everyone’s minds focused and prevent their thoughts from wandering back to the events of the previous night.
The instructor was well aware of the potential distractions caused by the previous night’s incident and wanted to bring everyone’s attention back to their training and responsibilities.
