Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption-Chapter 426 - 252
What a pity, tonight the broadband is having issues; after calling the telecom customer service, damn it, they said the service in our area is temporarily unavailable and it would take 24 hours to repair, no choice, Nu’an could only finish coding at home and then go out to find a non-telecom Internet cafe to upload.
The Chapter tomorrow morning will be uploaded around 12 noon, fearing that the office network might also be problematic.
---------------------
The vehicle rumbled along for about half an hour before finally stopping at the temporary location of the Blue Army B Division. The trainees jumped off the vehicle and were immediately captivated by the neat rows of green tents they saw in front of them; the confusion on their little faces mostly turned into excitement. It was their first time down to the troops, and it was indeed quite fresh.
"Quickly form a single line!" shouted a military man in his twenties who got down from the driver’s cabin.
Everyone hurriedly redirected their attention and lined up according to height.
"Reporting to the Commander, formation complete, awaiting instructions!"
"Stand at ease!"
"Yes!"
"At ease!" The military man carried out the command and moved aside.
Feng Tianzhi, with a faint smile at the corners of his lips, glanced around, "Everyone, the journey was hasty, and we haven’t had a chance to get to know each other yet.
My name is Feng Tianzhi, and I hold the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. I am currently the Commander of the B Division of the exercise. The B Division belongs to the B Military Region and is a well-equipped force ready for battle.
I welcome you all here for your internship. However, let me say the unpleasant part first; even as interns, you are still part of the B Division. Your hearts must be with the B Division, and your actions must align with the B Division. Can you do that?"
"We can!" Everyone answered in unison.
Luo Ye secretly pouted. Are they hinting at or warning her? Geez, they all treat her like what exactly? Feeling Feng Tianzhi staring at her, she promptly stood up straight and did not look elsewhere.
"Very good, your spirit is commendable. I suppose you’ve heard enough about the hardships and persistence required during the collective training, so I won’t go into details. I’ll just ask one question: in the training with the troops, you won’t lose to the veteran soldiers, right?"
"Right!"
Feng Tianzhi nodded in satisfaction, "Very good, now let’s take some time for everyone to introduce themselves, from left to right, begin!"
Li Xiaobei, Liang Xiaorao, Ji Sisi, Luo Ye, Liu Xing, Lu Jian, Yan Han, and Jing Feng stepped forward one by one to introduce themselves.
"Now that we all know each other, let me talk about the upcoming training plan. To show our emphasis on you student soldiers, I will personally take on the role of drill instructor for the student class. Over the next few days, all training will be fully aligned with the entire B Division! 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Although everyone is only here for half a month, we still need a leader, and who should be the leader?" Feng Tianzhi’s gaze lingered on everyone’s faces, ignoring the eager looks from most students, and settled on Luo Ye: "Luo Ye, you will take on the role of class leader for the student class!"
"Reporting!"
"Step forward!"
Luo Ye took two steps forward: "Reporting to Commander Feng, both Liu Xing and Yan Han have higher overall scores from the collective training; they are more suitable for the role of class leader."
Damn it, making her the class leader means she could be called upon anytime to report on their work, and she’s now his subordinate, so how could she not obey?
"Luo Ye, the decision to make you the class leader is based on an assessment of your overall qualities by General Instructor Mo Datong, not because I whimsically found you pretty to make the choice. Your appeal is denied."
Feng Tianzhi’s rationale left everyone somewhat stunned—seeing a military leader who’s so unreserved and informal was indeed a first.
"Reporting, I insist that I am not fit for the role!"
Feng Tianzhi dropped his trademark smile, "I also insist that my appointment is the correct one. Following orders is the sacred duty of a soldier, don’t you know?"
"Yes!" Luo Ye helplessly complied, knowing there’s no arguing with authority, and there was nothing she could do about it.
"Luo Ye, run ten laps around the track!"
"Yes!"
"Reporting!"
"Step forward!"
Liu Xing stepped forward: "Reporting to Commander Feng, I don’t understand why Luo Ye is being punished."
The smile on Feng Tianzhi’s face deepened: "You don’t know?"
"I don’t!"
"Liu Xing, run ten laps around the track! If you have a problem with that, you can leave the B Division right now! Does anyone else have any questions?"
"Reporting!"
"Step forward!"
This time it was Yan Han, "Reporting to Commander Feng, I’ll run with them!"
Feng Tianzhi glanced at him briefly, "If you want to join, just join. No need to report that to me. Anyone else who wants to run, you’re welcome to join. Lunch at 11:30 and training will start promptly at 1:00. Dismissed!"
...
"Liu Xing, in the future, don’t stand up for me." Luo Ye reminded Liu Xing while they ran.
"He’s clearly being unreasonable. Luo Ye, did you know him before? I feel like he’s singling you out on purpose?" Liu Xing asked.
