With a cold expression, Wang Ye walked alongside the crawling team and spoke in a cold voice.

The reconnaissance soldiers didn’t dare to make a sound, and one by one, they obediently started crawling forward.

Crawling on the cement road surface wasn’t that big of a deal, and right now, they didn’t have much equipment with them either.

The crucial part was that they needed to circle the camp area now!

It was too far, and circling like this, how many people would witness this scene?

“He’s pretty ruthless!”

Back at the cafeteria entrance, a group of soldiers from the kitchen were still watching.

Someone murmured a comment, and someone else chimed in, “They’re in for it now. Running into Wang Ye, they’ll be skinned alive!”

“Heh, no kidding. If 1 had to crawl a lap, I’d not only lose my skin but probably a few pounds of flesh too. They might have thick skin, but I bet crawling will be tough for them!”

“Amen, may the Lord protect them!”

“Hehe, we don’t believe in demons and ghosts, let alone these foreign devils’ gods. There’s no way they’ll be protected!”

At this moment, if the reconnaissance soldiers could hear these cold remarks from the kitchen staff, they would probably be infuriated.

However, even if they couldn’t hear it now, they could imagine that these kitchen staff had surely made a lot of sarcastic remarks about them while they were crawling.

Naturally, Wang Ye didn’t care about that.

This was the effect he wanted.

In training, if you felt that you were too gentle in your self-reflection, then you needed some roughness to toughen up. Let the whole squad see how miserable these reconnaissance soldiers, who usually held their heads high, were right now.

“Hurry up, all of you! Aren’t you elites? Can’t even crawl properly? Pick up the pace!”

Following the crawling team, Wang Ye accelerated his steps and continued to berate them loudly.

Soon, the team passed by the dormitory building of the Criminal Investigation Company in the camp area.

At this moment, the company commander was originally in his office, but after being informed by the communications officer, he rushed to the window to witness the scene.

At the same time, at this very moment, the soldiers from the Third Platoon of the Criminal Investigation Company and the soldiers from the First Platoon of the Guard Company also ran to the windows, widening their eyes to watch this spectacle.

The new recruits for the company had arrived today, but the ones from the training camp had just arrived not long ago, so they hadn’t taken the new recruits out for training yet.

Surprisingly, they could witness such a situation right now.

Of course, the new recruits who had just arrived in the company didn’t have the courage to approach and watch. They could only listen to the hushed exclamations and sighs of the veterans in their platoons, saying things like, “Wang Ye is really tough, the Second Platoon is in for a tough time,” and so on.

“Let me tell you, becoming a soldier in our Second Company is an honor for you. See, those tanks? They’re all ours!”

The Second Company, not far from the Criminal Investigation Company, was currently having their platoon leader introduce the new recruits to their equipment on the training ground.

However, suddenly, he noticed that many soldiers in the formation were looking in one direction.

“What’s going on? Why are your eyes staring over there?” The Second Company platoon leader gave them a stern look, then followed their gazes.

The next moment, he too widened his eyes.

“Damn, what’s happening?”

“What?”

At the same time, in a flat area several kilometers away from the division headquarters, nestled in the mountains, there was a slightly older camp in the center of the rear.

At this moment, Platoon Leader Tian, had a look of astonishment on his face as he tightly held the radio handset.

He had come to the farm in a hurry a few days ago, and now it had been several days.

The day before yesterday, the instructor had called him and told him to hang on for another two days. When the company commander and the staff officer had cooled down, they would notify him to return.

But just now, when the call came, he thought it was time to go back, that the company commander and the staff officer had probably calmed down, and he could put an end to this painful and embarrassing pig farming journey.

However, the call didn’t bring the news of his return. On the contrary, the instructor delicately told him to settle down for now, calm down, stop over thinking, and take some time to rest!

What kind of talk was that?

It was clearly telling him to continue pig farming here!

So he quickly dug to the bottom of it, and he found out that the Second Platoon Leader had been replaced today.

The regiment commander’s order had made that guy, who could make him grit his teeth even in his dreams, the new Second Platoon Leader, taking over his position.

And he? He had to continue pig farming until Wang Ye went to the military academy.

This was madness.

How long would it take for Wang Ye to go to the military academy?

Military academies usually start classes in August at the earliest.

That’s still four or five months away, and he couldn’t bear to raise pigs for that long. He was already on the verge of a breakdown.

Even these few days of pig farming were pushing him to the limit, and the soldiers from the farm laughed at him every day.

Their laughter made him feel utterly humiliated, and he had been enduring it, thinking it would only last a few days.

But now…

His body was trembling slightly.

“Platoon Leader!”

There were two people beside him.

The reconnaissance soldiers who had failed that night were here to raise pigs with him.

At this moment, the two of them looked at their platoon leader’s expression and felt nervous.

The voice from the handset was too low, and the current dormitory was a bit rundown with poor sound insulation, and the pigsty was not far away.

The noisy squealing of the pigs made it impossible for them to hear the instructor’s voice from the handset clearly.

Platoon Leader Tian, didn’t pay any attention to the two of them; he was not in the mood.

“No, Instructor, 1 know I was wrong. Let me go back. I’m willing to be a soldier for now!”

Platoon Leader Tian, was finding it increasingly difficult to endure the prospect of continuing to raise pigs, especially considering that it had already been a few months of this life.

Even these few days had driven him to the brink of madness, and now a few more months?

Damn it, he was a platoon leader of the Army Reconnaissance, not a commander of pigs graduating from an agricultural university.

“Don’t overthink it. I’ve said it before, the company won’t forget you, and you know that Wang Ye going to the military academy is certain. You’ll definitely have a chance to come back.

What’s most important for you now is to obey orders and work on improving your temperament.

Think about where you went wrong and how you’ll lead your soldiers when you return.

Right now, they’re not giving up on you at the farm; they’re tempering you. You can’t give up on yourself either. Write a work plan for your return every week, and both the company commander and I will review it. When the company commander feels it’s about time, you might even come back early.

After all, right now, we can’t be sure if Wang Ye can really lead the soldiers well. Maybe he won’t, and in a few days, the staff officer might kick him back to the Fourth Company!”

On the phone, the instructor was doing his best to comfort Tian Feng.

Of course, his words did make some sense.

If Wang Ye truly couldn’t lead the soldiers, they wouldn’t let him continue aimlessly. The probability of Tian Feng, the platoon leader, being reinstated was quite high.

But that’s assuming Wang Ye couldn’t lead the soldiers.

However, thinking about the scene he had just witnessed, the instructor himself felt that his words were very uncertain and unreliable.

Does Wang Ye look like he can’t lead soldiers?

Look at those reconnaissance soldiers who were usually rebellious and headstrong, now how obedient they were.

They were all crawling on the ground, and not one of them dared to jump up and voice any objections while going around the camp area..
