Battalion Commander Chi was speaking in anger, but Tong Jianshe didn't think so.
"It was just a fight, why does it have to be a demerit? Is it because Wei Aiguo has connections? Which leader is he related to?" Sui Gang asked. Those of them who got into the special forces through their own abilities looked down on those who got in through connections.
Battalion Commander Chi retorted, "Who told you this nonsense?" If this gets out, it won't be good for Commander Shen.
"If it weren't for connections, would he be qualified to train with us based on his shooting performance?"
"Besides, this guy is incredibly petty. Qiao Dazhu has an impulsive and easily angered temper; if someone attacked him, it was definitely his doing," Tong Jianshe said. He just didn't know how the others got dragged into it.
Battalion Commander Chi was truly enraged now. Officer Han had left the man with him, and these young men were bullying him: "You're all talking about qualifications, but he's more qualified than you. His mother died in a gunfight with the enemy; he's the child of a martyr."
In terms of merit, he has been awarded a third-class merit once as an individual and a third-class merit once as a collective. His second-class merit award is currently under review.
You who think you're so great, so qualified, what makes you think you can compare to him?
Tong Jianshe and the others never expected that Wei Aiguo was so capable.
“Go on, keep going! You think you're all so high-achieving that you can get all high and mighty just because you get good grades?”
They even claimed that Wei Aiguo designed Qiao Dazhu.
Qiao Dazhu is a soldier. If he were provoked into disregarding discipline during battle, have you considered the consequences?
You're not students who only need grades. How much real combat experience have you had? In real combat, is it just about firing at fixed targets?
Several people fell silent after being scolded.
Battalion Commander Chi stood outside the solitary confinement cell, and those inside could hear him clearly.
Battalion Commander Chi: "Speak!! The incident definitely didn't start today."
Wei Aiguo has only been in your class for a few days.
Tell me the whole story.
To explain the cause and effect, we must mention Qiao Dazhu's thoughtless words, which angered Wei Aiguo. The reason people don't want to say it directly isn't to cover for Qiao Dazhu, but rather because it involves... women.
“It was my fault for accidentally soiling a very important photo of Comrade Wei Aiguo. Qiao Dazhu was speaking up for me, but he doesn’t think before he speaks, and his words were very unpleasant…” Tong Jianshe said.
Battalion Commander Chi: "You guys think things through before you even think about what Qiao Dazhu says?"
Have you ever thought about it? Out of so many platoons, squads, and companies, why was Wei Aiguo placed in your platoon?
Because his grades are outstanding. Not just comparable to yours, but surpassing yours! His abilities surpass yours!
"Get back here and write your self-criticisms!"
There were originally nine people in their class, four of whom were put in solitary confinement, leaving five people.
Sui Gang: "The battalion commander told us to write self-criticisms. But I can't think of anything to write about!"
“Perhaps we have many areas that need to be reviewed,” Tong Jianshe said.
"Are you talking in your sleep?" Sui Gang said. The others had the same expression.
"First, if Wei Aiguo is the enemy, we have underestimated him. If we were on the battlefield, we would be doomed."
"His shooting performance was so mediocre that we thought he wasn't capable enough. Listen to his military achievements; if someone like that isn't good enough, then we're nothing at all," Tong Jianshe said.
"Go on!" Sui Gang nudged Tong Jianshe when he saw him pause.
"Secondly, it's about our minds. We all think our achievements are outstanding, so we forget about our minds." Tong Jianshe's words are still very touching.
"Are the class monitor and the others really going to get demerits?" Sui Gang asked.
Everyone fell silent. If Wei Aiguo insisted on holding them accountable for beating him, they would definitely be given a demerit.
The people who stormed off are now returning looking dejected. They must have been scolded by their boss!
After a moment of silence, Sui Gang couldn't hold back any longer. "Wei Aiguo and Qiao Tiepao are likely to receive demerits. This is no small matter and will be recorded in their files."
You don't have any major grudges against Qiao Tiepao and the others..."
Everyone thought Wei Aiguo wouldn't pay any attention to Sui Gang.
But Wei Aiguo, who was lying down, sat up. "It's not that I have any major grudge against Qiao Tiepao, it's that we don't have any grudge at all."
I don't understand, what did my wife do to offend him? Qiao Tiepao just had to insult my wife like that!
Some of them exchanged bewildered glances. They had heard Tie Pao mention Wei Aiguo's wife twice.
The first time, what Qiao Tiepao said was very ambiguous.
The second time was when Yang Liqing talked about firearms, telling him to think before he spoke, so as not to insult others without realizing it.
Qiao Tiepao was unconvinced and kept arguing. He hadn't said anything, but hadn't he just said that Wei Aiguo's wife was quite pretty?
No matter what, Wei Aiguo's wife is made of paper; you can't praise her.
When a group of rough men talk together, it's inevitable that their conversations will sometimes be a bit rambling.
Qiao Tiezhu said that Wei Aiguo's wife is quite beautiful, and probably quite seductive. Otherwise, why would Wei Aiguo be so nervous about showing her a photo? Wei Aiguo married a vixen!
You can't choose a wife like that!
Yang Liqing slapped Qiao Dazhu in anger, saying that every military family member deserves respect. Someone like Qiao Dazhu deserved a beating.
Qiao Tiezhu was always like this; everyone ignored him and kept running forward.
After that, no one mentioned it again.
Could it be that Wei Aiguo overheard their conversation?
Judging from their expressions, they remembered. "Talking about lesbians behind their backs—see if you're any man up to it? Have you no shame?"
Wei Aiguo's words made everyone uncomfortable.
Yang Liqing's words were fairly fair, otherwise I would have beaten him up today too.
