Chapter 435: The First Class for the Scouts (2)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The second battalion commander was momentarily stunned.

Indeed, he hadn’t thought about this before.

“Well, alright!”

Having been called out by the regiment commander, Lin Hai reluctantly set aside his initial feelings.

Because the regiment commander was right, Wang Ye, in the fourth platoon, with his guaranteed admission to a specialized program, would most likely end up in the Armor Infantry Command specialization. However, if he were to join the Battalion Special Forces Platoon, he might have the opportunity to specialize in Armor Infantry Reconnaissance Platoon.

The names of the two specializations sounded quite similar, with the only difference being the addition of “reconnaissance.”

But in reality, there was a significant distinction, especially for outstanding individuals.

Graduating from the Battalion Special Forces Platoon specialization with excellent grades would allow direct entry into reconnaissance units in various divisions.

Reconnaissance soldiers in any unit were undoubtedly elite, there was no doubt about that.

And whether leading an elite unit or a regular one, the future prospects were quite different, needless to say.

On the other hand.

At this moment, Wang Ye, who had just caught up with the second platoon, was still unaware that his assignment had been changed due to organizational considerations.

Right now, as he watched the second platoon soldiers stop in front of the cafeteria door, Wang Ye turned to them and asked, “Why stop?”

“Report, platoon leader, pre-meal preparations!” shouted the corporal who had spoken earlier.

Wang Ye waved his hand dismissively, “Enough with the pre-meal preparations. It’s already lunchtime; everyone can go straight in!”

After saying this, Wang Ye led the way into the cafeteria.

Inside the cafeteria, someone from the kitchen hurriedly stuck their head out to see what was happening.

“Where’s the food for the second platoon, class leader? I brought them here to eat!”

The soldier peering out from the kitchen was a private, and when he heard Wang Ye refer to him as a class leader, he was honestly taken aback.

After serving in the military for over three years, it was the first time he had been called a class leader by an officer.

“Oh, uh, it’s right here,” the private quickly regained his composure and said, “I’ve been waiting for you all. I’ll go get my class leader and the others to help with the meal prep!”

“Hey, no need for that; we can handle it ourselves!” Wang Ye called out to stop him.

After saying this, Wang Ye turned to the second platoon soldiers who had entered, “Class leaders, fall in and come with me to help. The rest of you, line up and get ready to eat!”

Wang Ye had already finished his meal, so he didn’t need to eat again. At the moment, he was assisting with serving food to the soldiers, along with three class leaders and the members of the kitchen staff.

Watching them sit quietly at their tables after serving the food, Wang Ye didn’t say much.

Some rules had to be observed, after all.

Besides, waiting for everyone to start together wouldn’t starve anyone.

He waited patiently until the three class leaders at the end finished serving.

Wang Ye then approached them and spoke up, “If you’re hungry, just eat. There’s no need to be polite!”

No one moved; they were all waiting for Wang Ye, their newly appointed platoon leader, to address them.

When Wang Ye became their platoon leader, they had indeed been quite noisy and even grumbled privately when they first found out yesterday.

However, when Wang Ye stood before them now, no one dared to say anything.

A person’s reputation precedes them, and without mentioning the incident where things went awry in Wang Ye’s hands not once but twice, his reputation alone dictated that they couldn’t afford to defy him.

“Don’t understand my words? Eat!” Wang Ye spoke firmly, looking at them once again.

Having already served as a platoon leader in the new recruits’ company, Wang Ye didn’t feel unfamiliar in his role. This time, with Wang Ye’s command, the three class leaders at the tables immediately exchanged glances with their respective soldiers.

Subsequently, the reconnaissance soldiers wielded their chopsticks like weapons.

Only heaven knew how hungry they were.

Being in the age group where they could eat heartily, having passed a night without food and standing there since morning without even a sip of water, it would be strange if they weren’t hungry.

Wang Ye remained silent, simply observing them as they ate.

“They have some presence; look at these guys, surprisingly so obedient!”

In the kitchen, the other members of the kitchen staff who were on break also emerged.

However, they stayed in the kitchen, quietly watching and whispering.

“They have to be obedient. If they can break the military district’s records, they can surely break your head. If they don’t listen, would you dare to confront them?”

“Tough individuals. I heard that the fourth platoon has been complaining endlessly ever since they got assigned to this big guy’s platoon!”

“Hehe, shedding a layer of skin is nothing, but let’s not get involved. The second platoon needs some tough handling. Recently, whenever I go out, I don’t even dare to say I’m from our Criminal Investigation Company. I’m afraid people will say we eat better than anyone else but perform worse than anyone else!”

“Alright, stop talking for a moment and watch quietly!”

In the kitchen, their class leader silenced their discussions.

Meanwhile, Wang Ye continued to watch them eat.

Two or three minutes later, as each soldier put down their chopsticks along with their respective class leaders, they stopped eating.

“Is everyone done eating?” Wang Ye asked as he looked at them.

“We’re done!”

The voices of the three class leaders and some reconnaissance soldiers rang out.

“Is there anyone who hasn’t spoken and hasn’t eaten enough? Want to eat some more?” Wang Ye spoke again.

Immediately, the mouths of all the reconnaissance soldiers opened.

“We’re done!”

This time, their voices were much louder.

“Alright, the kitchen staff are resting; don’t be so loud!” Wang Ye said this with a smile.

No one said a word.

Wang Ye continued, “Honestly, I’m surprised that you waited for me for so long, and you haven’t even eaten your meal. But just now, I personally helped you serve food, and now I waited for you to finish eating. Consider that an apology.”

“Platoon leader, we dare not complain. We were only following the orders of the company commander!” one of the class leaders said with a muffled voice.

To say they weren’t complaining was impossible.

After standing for a whole morning, sweating at least half a pound, it was impossible not to have some grievances.

However, they couldn’t voice their complaints. It wasn’t Wang Ye who had made them wait.

Wang Ye maintained his smile, saying, “1 don’t care whose orders you were following, but from now on, I’m your platoon leader.”

With that, Wang Ye turned his head to the kitchen area and said, “Brothers from the kitchen staff, please bring out all the dirty clothes and anything that needs to be washed!”

“Uh…”

The kitchen staff soldiers who had been watching the spectacle collectively looked bewildered.

Wang Ye chuckled, “It’s okay, I’m just getting ready to give our proud elites their first lesson, so please provide some props!”

At this moment, the reconnaissance soldiers from the second platoon were all watching Wang Ye. They didn’t know what he had in mind, but they had a bad feeling about it.

Some of them had even guessed what Wang Ye was planning.

Of course, Wang Ye didn’t keep them in suspense. After speaking to the kitchen staff soldiers, he turned back to the reconnaissance soldiers of the second platoon and said, “Elites, I know that you are excellent in terms of physical fitness and skills, far superior to the soldiers in other companies. So, as the new platoon leader, today I won’t be teaching you any skills!”

After a brief pause, Wang Ye continued with a smile, “We just finished eating, and it’s not good for your digestion to do physical training right after. I’m going to teach you something different.”

At this point, Wang Ye pointed towards the area near the kitchen entrance where the kitchen staff soldiers were taking out dirty aprons and such.

“Later, help the kitchen staff wash their clothes and aprons!”
