“Prepare to raise the flag!”
Ji Qing Lin shouted as he stood in front of a row of flagpoles on the field.
In the next moment, Wang Ye and the other captains of the eight companies raised their company flags and stepped forward.
The company flag had been put into the backpack before they arrived at the regiment headquarters. However, after Wang Ye and the others were called out, they followed Ji Qing Lin’s orders and took it out of the backpack. They even used the pole provided by the teaching team to prop it up.
At this moment, Wang Ye and the others walked to the leftmost eight flagpoles. After pausing, they immediately began to prepare to raise the flag.
He tied the flag with the rope on the flagpole.
“Raise the flag.” After Wang Ye and the others were done, Ji Qing Lin gave another order.
“Salute!”
Behind him, Wang Chang Dong, who was now the Platoon leader, shouted. All the soldiers in the company raised their hands.
No speakers were playing any songs, and everyone did not sing their songs. Under the lead of the first platoon leader, they sang the military song together.
Standing under the flag platform, Wang Ye slowly pulled the rope.
There were many flagpoles here. Only the eight flagpoles on the left were raised.
Unsurprisingly, the flagpoles on the side were used by the other two regiments that had yet to arrive.
A few minutes later, when the fourth company finished singing the military song, Wang Ye and the others also raised the flags.
Following Ji Qing Lin’s orders, they returned to their respective teams.
As temporary team leaders, they had pressed the pause button.
If they wanted to reactivate their identities, they would have to wait until someone in the company quit or until they graduated and wore their military ranks again.
“I’ll give you one hour now. Go to the second floor and find your platoon.”
They were brought from the field to a dormitory building. Ji Qing Lin gave another order, but he didn’t mention any follow-up plans or training matters.
On the first day of joining the team, he would first clean up.
However, when Wang Ye and the others entered the dormitory building, the first thing he wanted to do was complain.
This was because the teaching team was not particular at all.
There were soldiers here.
But now, there was so much dust in the dormitory.
There were many footprints on the stairs.
However, it was useless to say this now.
On the second floor, the dormitory was not difficult to find. There was a sign at the door, clearly indicating the platoon.
After pushing open the door and entering the dormitory, there was no need for everyone to divide their beds.
There was a row of five high-bottom iron beds on the left-hand side of the wall. At first glance, one could see the names on the bunk beds.
The first bed they entered was the bed of the squad leader from the Sixth Company.
The name on it was Song Fu, and his upper bunk was a soldier from the 4th Company. He could even be considered a relatively familiar person in the 4th Company.
The squad leader of the fourth squad was Du Yi Tong.
He was the original fourth squad leader who had been replaced after the war incident. He was a first-class soldier.
After the next match, he was actually in platoon 6, in the same platoon as Wang Ye.
However, Wang Ye didn’t communicate much with him. Or rather, Wang Ye felt that this person should have some opinions about him.
Wang Ye was not a fool and he could more or less sense everyone’s emotions.
Just now in the car, he didn’t smile, nor did he chat with Wang Ye and the other comrades of the Fourth Company.
Ignoring him, Wang Ye glanced at his bed and then walked to the second bed.
His name was on the lower bunk of the second bed.
“Everyone, hurry up and tidy up the internal cabinets.” Wang Ye said. Then, he looked at Song Fu and said, “Class monitor, I’ll go and find the tool room first!”
Wang Ye didn’t touch his backpack immediately.
He was the vice-platoon monitor and had to do his duty.
The vice platoon monitor was mainly in charge of internal affairs and studies.
He was also in charge of training, but that was the class monitor.
“Yes, sure!” Song Fu smiled and nodded, not putting on a cold persona.
Or rather, he might not be used to being the platoon leader yet.
Soon, Wang Ye walked out of the dormitory.
However, what made Wang Ye a little dumbfounded was something else.
There was no tool room on the second floor.
Wang Ye only saw a few brooms and two ash buckets in a small cubicle in the bathroom.
There was nothing else.
There was no mop.
“This teaching team is going crazy!” Scratching his head, Wang Ye touched the short hair that he had shaved two days ago. It was still very hard to touch.
He felt helpless.
This situation clearly showed what it meant.
With the army’s hygiene standards, a few brooms would not be enough.
And now, there was only this little thing.
How?
There was no other way.
Everyone had brought their towels.
His scalp went numb. Wang Ye had only brought one towel, but in this situation, he had no choice but to go back and use it.
“No way, using a towel?”
“That’s right! Did you not find the right place? How could there not be a mop? Even if there was no mop, there was no rag?”
After returning to the dormitory, Wang Ye explained the situation, and the others immediately shouted.
Wang Ye rubbed his temples and said helplessly, “Alright, there’s only so much space on the second floor, the things might be on other floors. But we’re not familiar with it now, and we have limited time, so stop dawdling and take out your towels!”
“How are we going to use our towels like this?”
“Yeah, let’s go look for it again!”
Someone was unwilling.
Immediately, Wang Ye looked over, and the expression on his face was completely restrained, “If you can’t use it, then don’t use it. Comrade veterans, I hope you can understand the current situation.”
“I said, take your towels!”
Wang Ye’s words with a straight face immediately caused the expressions of the two recruits who had spoken to stiffen.
Looking at Wang Ye, they opened their mouth, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.
“Alright, listen to the platoon assistant. Use our towel first. If it really can’t be washed clean, don’t use it next time” At this moment, Song Fu also came out to smooth things over.
Wang Ye glanced at him, but he didn’t take the initiative to shut up and ease the tension. On the contrary, he continued to look at the two of them expressionlessly, and then at the others.
“When I was in the 4th Company, I was already a deputy. There were also a few sergeants and first-class soldiers in my class.”
“But when 1 was the vice-leader, no one ever refuted me, let alone discounted my words.”
After a pause, Wang Ye said in a solemn tone, “I know what kind of mentality you have. 1 am a private, and you are all veterans.”
“You all thought that a recruit like me would still be a new recruit even if 1 became a vice leader and you could ignore my words!”
Wang Ye’s words made the eyes of some of the veterans from the other companies in the third platoon flicker.
Wang Ye naturally saw it as well. He immediately said again, “Respect is mutual. This is the teaching team, and I’m the vice-leader now. I hope you won’t remember that I’m a private.”
“To put it bluntly, so what if I’m a private? We’re all soldiers, and strength is the foundation. To put it bluntly, I don’t think any of you can beat me in training, in any event!”
Wang Ye’s eyes were sharp, and he did not leave any room for negotiation as he spoke, “Don’t blame me for being arrogant, and don’t say that 1 don’t respect veterans.”
“If you want me to respect you and you’re stronger than me, that’s fine.
Otherwise, as long as I’m the class vice-leader, 1 don’t want anyone to refute or question me when 1 say something next time.”
Wang Ye’s words made the expressions of the veterans of the other companies in the dormitory change a few times.
Only the two veterans from the 4th Company were very calm.
The main reason was that Wang Ye had been like this when he was in the fourth consecutive battle.
It wasn’t in the fourth company’s eighth platoon, but every time after some training, when Wu Jian Feng organized Wang Ye to teach everyone his training experience, Wang Ye was like this.
Yes, they were veterans, but who in the 4th Company dared to call Wang Ye a recruit?
In private, many people were calling him their new father.
Looking at the silent platoon 3 recruits, the smile on Wang Ye’s face suddenly returned, “Alright, I went a little overboard just now, but it’s also because I like to say the ugly things first so that we won’t be unhappy after we officially start training.”
After a pause, Wang Ye continued, “Since no one has any objections, I’ll give you ten seconds to get your towels. 1’11 allocate the sanitary areas!”
“This Wang Ye is not bad. As a private, he can put on a show in front of a group of veterans and suppress them.”
“Not bad, it made me open my eyes!”
In a room on the first floor, there was a large screen on the wall.
The big screen was divided into nine smaller screens.
Three of the screens were showing images, and there was even a sound coming from the speakers.
The army did not always follow the old traditions.
For example, when Wang Ye fought against the scouts from the division headquarters, they all had cameras on their bodies.
And now, there were hidden cameras in the dormitories of each class.
The surveillance footage was being watched by three officers and a few sergeants who were at least sergeants.
Squadron leader, instructor, and division secretary.
As for the few non-commissioned officers, some were instructors of the teaching team, while others were district captains. For example, Ji Qing Lin, the captain of the first district team, who had just met Wang Ye and the others, was among them.
The one who spoke was the first lieutenant of the three officers. He was the secretary of the division headquarters.
Looking at his smiling expression, one of the two captains also smiled and said, “It’s very powerful. A private training a veteran.”
He was also smiling.
It looks like we’re in trouble this year! This guy’s results are abnormal. Old Ji, you’re in for it this year!”
At this moment, someone among the sergeants spoke.
“Hehe, it’s just a recruit. It’s not that exaggerated!” Ji Qing Lin replied with a smile.
At this moment, he was no longer as cold and arrogant as when he faced Wang Ye and the others outside.
The smile on his once-dark face told everyone that he was in a good mood.
There was also competition for the position of district captain, and the competition was very strong.
The three regiments of warriors were divided into three platoons. Needless to say, the competition would be intense.
As the district captains, they naturally shared the same glory.
“Alright, it’s about time. Zhang Lin, you two go out and wait!”
“Yes, sir!”
The two sergeants immediately stood at attention and nodded.
The distance between each group was different, so the arrival time was naturally not uniform.
However, this was not a big problem. There was no official training today.
There was no difference between arriving earlier and later..
