These words caused an uproar in the audience!

Gao Kai's face instantly turned a deep purplish-red, and he roared, "Bai Wei, you're talking nonsense! You're spouting lies!"

"I'm making baseless accusations?" Bai Wei laughed maniacally, tears and snot mixed with blood on her face, making her look like a demon. "I saw it with my own eyes! I even wrote a letter of complaint! The letter is with you! Instructor Qin! It's in your hands!"

She pointed intently at Qin Ye, her voice growing increasingly shrill.

"She even drove Wang Xiaoya to her death! Wang Xiaoya was driven to suicide because she caught her in an affair! She's a murderer!"

"She's an enemy agent! Her abilities are of unknown origin! She's an enemy who has infiltrated our ranks! Instructor Qin, please read this letter! Arrest her! Eliminate this cancer from our revolutionary ranks!"

Every word Bai Wei said was like a heavy hammer blow, striking everyone's heart.

Promiscuous relationships, driving people to suicide, enemy agents...

In the strict discipline and politically tense military camp of the 1960s and 70s, every crime was enough to get you killed!

The students, who had just breathed a sigh of relief for Su An, were now on tenterhooks again. Their gazes towards Su An became complicated, filled with suspicion and even fear.

If what Bai Wei said is true... then Su An is not a hero, but a complete devil!

Zhang Ruobing's face also turned deathly pale. Although she didn't believe Bai Wei's crazy talk, the words "whistleblower letter" made her heart tighten. If there really was such a letter, and it had fallen into Qin Ye's hands, then the nature of the matter would completely change! This was no longer a conflict during a combat assessment, but a major incident involving conduct issues and political vetting!

All eyes were focused on Qin Ye.

They wanted to see how this stern instructor would choose to respond to such devastating accusations.

However, Qin Ye's reaction once again exceeded everyone's expectations.

He wasn't even slightly moved by the words "whistleblower letter".

He simply stared intently at Su Tang, his deep eyes seemingly silently confirming whether she had been affected by these foul words.

After a good ten seconds, and after confirming that Su Tang's eyes remained calm and unwavering, he slowly turned his head and glanced coldly at Bai Wei, who was splashing around in the mud, out of the corner of his eye.

In that instant, all the warmth in him vanished without a trace, replaced by a suffocating pressure and coldness.

Seeing that Qin Ye was finally looking at her, Bai Wei thought her words had worked, and her face immediately lit up with a morbidly joyful expression: "Yes! Instructor! You have to believe me! What I said is true! That letter..."

Before she could finish speaking, Qin Ye interrupted her with his calm and indifferent voice.

"Instructor Zhang."

"Yes!" Zhang Ruobing stood at attention instinctively, her body ramrod straight.

"Did you hear what Su An just said?" Qin Ye's voice was flat and emotionless, yet it sent a chill down Zhang Ruobing's spine.

"I...I heard it."

“Very good.” Qin Ye nodded. “Then I’ll tell you now, the rules were set by me.”

He took a step forward, and the invisible pressure made Zhang Ruobing subconsciously take half a step back.

"Bai Wei concealed a weapon during the combat assessment, intending to kill her comrade. Su An's actions constitute legitimate self-defense."

"As for the extent of self-defense..." Qin Ye paused, a chilling smile curving his lips as he glanced at the students who were wavering because of Bai Wei's accusations.

"On the battlefield, the enemy will not give you a second chance. Mercy to the enemy is cruelty to yourself. The soldiers I train do not know the word 'excessive self-defense'."

"My soldiers, within the rules, can fight however they want."

Do you have a problem with that?
