Reborn at Boot Camp: General, Don't Mess Around! - Chapter 2899

2899 Next Time
The observation team in front was still cheering for Ye Jian’s exciting performance. But Ye Jian was being criticized by Xia Jinyuan so badly that she almost couldn’t raise her head.

She was indeed too embarrassed to raise her head. However, just as she lowered her head, the man who was criticizing her growled, “Raise your head! You made a mistake. Do you think you can just lower your head like that? Even if you made a mistake, you have to raise your head and face it head-on. You have to correct your mistakes!
“The soldiers in our team are not cowards who bow down to criticism!”

At this moment, Xia Jinyuan was the youngest, most capable, iron-blooded, and cold leader of the Xueyu unit. When he scolded people, he didn’t use any curse words. However, he scolded them until they couldn’t even raise their heads. Even so, they weren’t allowed to lower their heads. If they lowered their heads, it would mean that they admitted defeat. If they admitted defeat, they would be cowards.

Ye Jian hadn’t officially entered the Xueyu unit, but she had experienced Xia Jinyuan’s ruthlessness a few times. When she was sent to the hospital, she was punished until she almost fainted. She was criticized until her body couldn’t take it anymore. Even when she lowered her head, she was called a coward… Ye Jian hugged her rifle tightly and raised her chin. Even though she was criticized, she was still as proud as a pine tree.

She was a soldier!

She could get hurt and spill blood, but she mustn’t lose the perseverance of a soldier. She couldn’t be afraid of anything!

Even if a soldier was wearing casual clothes, people would be able to tell that they were a soldier at a glance. This was a matter of temperament. It was different from an ordinary citizen’s temperament. Every move a soldier made revealed the aura of a soldier. It was mighty and straight. A soldier would never give in.

Since a soldier was mighty and unyielding, how could she lower her head?

If she made a mistake, she had to correct it immediately!

If she won, she would raise her head and face everything calmly!

If she lost, she would raise her head and get ready to face the next round!

In short, no matter what, soldiers had to have a straight back. They had to be prouder than pine trees and taller than green bamboo.

This didn’t just represent the posture of a soldier; it also represented the integrity of a soldier.

Xia Jinyuan was such a person. No matter how difficult or dangerous it was, he would never lower his head. He would always straighten his back and raise his head to face everything.

Ye Jian lowered her head because of this mistake. This was something he couldn’t allow to happen. He didn’t want to see it happen either.

Ye Jian felt a chill on her back when she heard his even colder voice. She stood at attention and straightened her back. She raised her head and looked straight ahead.

“Don’t let me see you acting like a cowardly soldier again. It’s wrong, so change it! You made a mistake that you shouldn’t have made during the inspection of basic equipment. This mistake… I’ll settle it with you when we get back.

“In the later stages, your performance was alright. You calmly handled the mistake and didn’t let the worst outcome happen. You knew that you were wrong, but you didn’t panic. You knew your mission and duty well. You faced it calmly and corrected your mistake early enough. You did well in this aspect. You let me see how fearless you are as a soldier.”

In the beginning, Xia Jinyuan criticized Ye Jian severely. Later, he judged her merits based on facts. He criticized her when he should and praised her when he should. Xia Jinyuan didn’t blindly grab Ye Jian’s mistakes and be aggressive. He commented on her merits and mistakes, making Ye Jian understand and admire him even more.

Just like the veterans of the Xueyu unit, they were also criticized when necessary and praised when the occasion called for it. When it was time to be ruthless, the commander was so ruthless that even the veterans would tremble in fear… After that, he would comment on their merits one by one. Xia Jinyuan used half a year to subdue these veterans.
