Chapter 337: Helicopter Pickup After Graduation

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

In the golden autumn of October, even though there was no hint of autumn in Xiguang, and the weather remained oppressively hot every day, Wang Ye paid little attention to these things.

As a member of the training team, he had neither the time nor the mood to appreciate the autumn scenery outside, even if it were picturesque.

“Hurry up, keep going!”

On the sports field, Wang Ye was sprinting vigorously.

Today was October 8th, just after National Day.

At the same time, it was also the assessment day.

For today, they had endured a tough National Day, with only half an afternoon off on the first day, and then no more breaks.

Because on the 8th, they had their final assessment, and there was no time for additional rest.

They continued to train every day until today when the assessment arrived.

At the moment on the sports field, Wang Ye was fully geared up, but he was running at full speed.

This was the last event of the afternoon, the physical fitness assessment.

The training team’s assessment was conducted on a scale of one thousand points.

Among them, individual combat training law accounted for one hundred and fifty points, and collective subject training law another one hundred and fifty points.

In addition, there were the physical fitness assessments, which Wang Ye was starting now, accounting for one hundred and fifty points.

Finally, there were rifle precision shooting for one hundred points.

Grenade throwing for one hundred points.

Four hundred meters obstacle for one hundred meters.

Comprehensive exercises for one hundred and fifty points.

And finally, military theory for one hundred points.

Many points and many projects.

But in reality, except for training laws and comprehensive exercises, most of the other assessments were not much different from the enhanced version of the recruit training.

The assessed projects were mostly the same as those in the recruit training or were an enhanced version of them.

For example, in the recruit training, there was a three-kilometer race, and here it was a five-kilometer armed cross-country race.

For example, in shooting, recruits fired three rounds, while here it was ten rounds.

Perhaps the four hundred meters obstacle course was not tested in the recruit training, but Wang Ye had encountered it in the Iron Bones Hero Regiment and even broke the regiment’s record.

Of course, it didn’t mean that the training team was unnecessary.

In fact, the training team’s process was really necessary, so necessary that Wang Ye couldn’t graduate early even if he wanted to.

Even though Wang Ye had excellent physical fitness and had even shown off in front of the division headquarters during previous competitions.

But the role of the training team was still irreplaceable.

The training here, although many were enhanced versions of recruit training, and they even did some squad training before the assessment.

But the training here was not the same as that in the recruit training.

Here, they aimed to cultivate you into a soldier who could teach, speak, and demonstrate, or in other words, a squad leader.

So, even though Wang Ye had outstanding physical fitness and nearly maxed-out skills, coupled with his extraordinary memory and the thick skin he had developed in his previous life, he still had to attend classes diligently for over a month after returning.

However, it all ended here.

In the assessments, in terms of physical fitness, Wang Ye was unrivaled, and his skills were no different.

Wang Ye was a man who had nearly maxed out his skills, and with his extraordinary memory and the thick skin he had developed in his previous life, he had scored 990 out of a total of 1000 points in the two-day assessment.

Ten points deducted, perhaps the company commander and others were afraid that Wang Ye would become too proud, so they nitpicked and deducted ten points from Wang Ye during the theoretical and practical assessments.

Of course, this wouldn’t affect much.

Among the entire company, the second-best score was only 917 points.

Even if they deducted another sixty or seventy points from Wang Ye, he would still be in first place.

“Tomorrow, you will graduate, and I know you’ll be heading to the military academy next year. Do your best, strive for excellence, and I hope that one day, the soldiers 1 lead can also produce a general!”

On the night of the 9th, Ji Qinglin called Wang Ye out for a walk after dinner.

For the training team, the most leisurely time had arrived.

The assessments were over, and tomorrow they would receive their graduation certificates. After completing this process, everyone could return to their original units.

“Haha, Captain, you really think highly of me, even mentioning becoming a general!” Wang Ye replied with a cheerful smile.

“What’s wrong? Don’t have confidence?” Ji Qinglin turned and smiled.

“Actually, I don’t!” Wang Ye replied honestly.

Becoming a general in peacetime? Even if Wang Ye had extraordinary abilities, he didn’t have the confidence for that.

You could talk about becoming a company commander or battalion commander, and Wang Ye might dare to think about it.

But a general? That was incredibly difficult.

Of course, Wang Ye definitely had such aspirations.

After all, a good soldier should aim to become a general.

Wang Ye joined the military with his unique abilities, and even after his rebirth, he willingly devoted himself to the military life, so how could he not have once dreamed of someday achieving the rank of a general himself?

However, dreams were just dreams, and until that day came, he dared not boast about it.

“Haha, that’s true, becoming a general is incredibly difficult!” Ji Qinglin laughed as well.

After the laughter, he turned to Wang Ye again, his smile still on his face, and said, “But even if becoming a general is tough, there’s no doubt that you’ll make it to the rank of a division-level officer!”

Continuing before Wang Ye could respond, he said, “I’ve been teaching you for so long, and you’ve done well in terms of your personal conduct. You’re not arrogant, and you handle relationships with your comrades properly. In terms of leadership, even though you’ve only been in charge of a squad so far, you’ve shown great potential. You have the talent, and you already have some achievements to your name. Once you graduate from the military academy, you’re destined to stand out and won’t be treated like an ordinary graduate!”

“Hehe, I hope so, but the future is still a long way off!” Wang Ye remained calm.

The titles of general or division-level officer were still far, far away. Right now, he was just a soldier who hadn’t even completed a year of service. His current focus was on honing himself, making himself exceptionally capable, and then experiencing life at the military academy next year.

“Huff, huff-”

Suddenly, in the darkness of the night, the sound of helicopter rotor blades could be heard overhead.

“Hmm?” Wang Ye and Ji Qinglin both turned their heads simultaneously.

At a glance, Wang Ye saw blinking lights in the southern sky.

He couldn’t see the details, but he knew it was a helicopter.

“Wang Ye!”

“Wang Ye!”

At that moment, someone from the first squad was running and shouting by the side of the sports field.

It was a comrade from the squad.

“I’m here!” Wang Ye shouted back loudly.

“Come on, let’s go see what’s going on!” Ji Qinglin immediately spoke up and started running. Naturally, Wang Ye followed.

In fact, in that moment, Wang Ye had many questions in his mind.

What was going on?

Why was there a helicopter?

And why were they looking for him?

A coincidence?

Wang Ye couldn’t be sure.

“What’s going on?” Ji Qinglin ran up to Song Fu and asked directly.

“Captain, the company commander came to Wang Ye’s squad and found out that Wang Ye and you were outside, so he sent us to look for you!” Song Fu replied.

“Did he say what it was about?”

“No.”

Ji Qinglin looked at Wang Ye and then at the helicopter clearly flying towards the training team area.

“All right, I got it. Go and let the others know not to search anymore; we’ll go back now.”

He said to Song Fu, then turned to Wang Ye and said, “Let’s go!”

“Okay!”

Wang Ye responded and had a lot of doubts in his mind, but for now, he kept quiet.

He followed Ji Qinglin as they ran back towards the dormitory building.

The company commander and the instructor were already standing outside the building.

Seeing Wang Ye and Ji Qinglin approaching, the company commander came forward directly, “Come, follow me to meet the Head of Staff!”

“Head of Staff?” Wang Ye couldn’t help feeling a bit helpless.

Wang Ye had some suspicions when he saw the helicopter earlier.

His regiment didn’t have such equipment.

Only the division headquarters did.

He had seen it last time.

And this time, if it wasn’t for others passing by, finding him again was very likely.

But why was he here?

Was he trying to recruit him again?

Hadn’t he already declined last time?

Wang Ye was feeling a bit uneasy.

Unlike when he had Wu Jianfeng and others with him, now he was alone. If the Head of Staff ordered him to board the helicopter, what would he do?

Watching the company commander’s back as he ran, Wang Ye really didn’t want to follow, but he had no other options at the moment.

“All right, stop standing there, let’s go and see!” Ji Qinglin pulled Wang Ye along.

Reluctantly, Wang Ye could only follow.

They returned to the sports field, retracing their steps.

And when Wang Ye and the company commander’s group arrived back at the sports field, the helicopter that had been in the air earlier was now parked on the field, and the people on board had already disembarked.

Many students from the training team were watching around.

Tonight, everyone was free to move around in the camp.

Some were lazy and stayed in the dormitories, but many also went outside for a walk.

Now that the helicopter had flown over, naturally, the students who saw it would come over to see what was happening.

After all, even those from the infantry regiment rarely got to see a helicopter.

And everyone was curious about why the helicopter had come here at this time.

“Hello, sir!” The company commander and instructor, along with Ji Qinglin and Wang Ye, ran up to the helicopter and saluted the Head of Staff who had disembarked.

Beside him was a company commander.

After the company commander received a call from the Head of Staff, he was instructed to clear a spot on the sports field and use signal batons to guide the helicopter’s landing.

The Head of Staff returned the salute and then looked directly at Wang Ye, saying, “Wang Ye, we meet again?”

“Yes, sir!” Wang Ye stood at attention and replied.

He didn’t know what to do now, so he could only play it by ear.

“Do you know why I came to find you?” The Head of Staff continued to smile.

“Report, I don’t know!” Wang Ye pretended not to know.

“Hehe, it’s okay not to know. Go, you have ten minutes to pack your things and come back!” The Head of Staff said with a smile.

This time, Wang Ye looked at him and didn’t move.

11

Sir, does my regiment’s commander know about this?” Although he was a superior officer, in theory, he should unconditionally follow the orders of his superiors.

But at this moment, Wang Ye couldn’t help but ask.

Mainly because the Head of Staff was not his direct superior.

If Wu Jianfeng had ordered him, he wouldn’t say anything, and he wouldn’t hesitate even if the regiment commander had given the order.

But the Head of Staff was another level up, so it was necessary for Wang Ye to ask this question.

“He knows. If you’re worried, you can go pack first, and when you come back, I’ll let you use the radio on the plane to contact your regiment commander.”

Pausing for a moment, the Head of Staff added, “They are currently in training camp. Don’t think I’m tricking you onto the plane; it’s just that you won’t be able to reach them using the camp’s phone.”

“Yes!”

Wang Ye didn’t say anything else.

Although he still had some doubts about the credibility of the Head of Staff’s words, he seemingly had no other choice at the moment.

He could only turn around and run.

“Old Wang, is the Head of Staff here to see you?” Just as they left the sports field, someone ran over to join Wang Ye.

It was Du Yitong and a few others.

Some of them were already outside and came to see what was happening when they saw the helicopter. Others had been in the squad and were called over by the company commander when Wang Ye was summoned.

After the helicopter landed earlier, they didn’t dare to approach.

But now that they saw Wang Ye running out, they immediately followed him.

“Yeah!” Wang Ye nodded at them, then continued, “The Head of Staff wants to take me away, and I can’t refuse. Old Du, when you guys go back tomorrow, tell the company commander about this!”

“Don’t worry, we’ll definitely tell him!” In fact, there was no need to say it. If Wu Jianfeng didn’t know, they would definitely ask when they returned. After all, they were graduating together, and now that Wang Ye was missing, how could he not ask? Maybe he would come over himself to pick Wang Ye up. Of course, they didn’t know the situation here or whether the regiment was aware of it..
