Chapter 345 This guy really got into character. Wang Xiaoya, Chen Xiaocao and the others looked at Qiao Lin's miserable appearance as she was dragged away, still cursing wildly. Instead of feeling any sympathy, they felt extremely relieved.
Su Tang watched Qiao Lin's figure disappear at the end of the playground. The heart-wrenching curses and cries did not stir up the slightest ripple in her heart.
She felt it was a waste of even a little effort to deal with such a foolish enemy.
The first target of the secret mission Zheng Hongyi gave her was actually solved by Qin Ye in such a swift, efficient, and open manner.
Her original plan was to find a suitable opportunity during the upcoming unrestricted combat assessment, and in a seemingly "reasonable" way, make it impossible for her to stay.
Unexpectedly, Qin Ye's objective description of Qiao Lin's "inappropriate command" in her exercise debriefing report directly cleared this obstacle for her.
That's so convenient.
Just then, Qin Ye's icy voice rang out again, pulling everyone back to reality.
"Instructor Zhang!"
"Here!" Instructor Zhang Ruobing responded in unison.
"The remaining four people on the removal list shall be dealt with according to regulations. Now, execute it immediately!" Qin Ye's tone left no room for argument.
"yes!"
Soon, four more soldiers who had been with Qiao Lin during the exercise were called out of line and, amidst their ashen faces and desperate cries, were ruthlessly taken away by the military police.
In just over ten minutes, the entire Third Battalion lost five men.
This swift and decisive action shattered the last shred of hope in everyone's hearts.
On the parade ground, the remaining sixty-two soldiers, whether they had been punished by running the duck walk or were among the first to assemble, all stood ramrod straight, silent as cicadas in winter, even deliberately keeping their breathing light.
Qin Ye's gaze slowly swept across the entire field, finally landing on the army of "ducks" who were moving slowly across the playground in extremely painful postures.
"Attention, everyone! Stop!"
The more than fifty soldiers felt as if they had been granted a pardon, and they all stopped what they were doing. They were all drenched in sweat, their faces were pale, and their legs were shaking like leaves.
"Very good." Qin Ye looked at their disheveled appearance, a cold smile curving his lips. "It seems you've already begun to understand what discipline is. Now, everyone stand up and return to your ranks!"
The soldiers struggled to their feet, their legs weak, and they helped each other, limping back to their ranks.
Thus, the crackdown triggered by the emergency assembly came to an end.
But everyone knew that this was just the beginning.
...
The setting sun hung listlessly on the western mountaintop.
The drill ground of Battalion No. 3 was now a living hell.
"Dismiss-!"
When Instructor Lei Kuan's two hoarse words, like a broken gong, rang out from the loudspeaker, not one of the sixty-two mud-covered figures on the playground could burst into the expected cheers.
Time seemed to stand still for two seconds.
Immediately afterwards, the sounds of "thump" and "thump" echoed one after another, as if a "human flesh dumpling" had been made.
Whether they were male soldiers who were usually as strong as oxen or female soldiers who gritted their teeth and persevered, at this moment, they were all like salted fish whose spines had been removed, collapsing to the ground in unison, without even the strength to move a finger.
The playground was filled with the smell of sweat and dirt mixed together.
Groans, heavy breathing, and suppressed sobs intertwined to create a mournful symphony.
