Chapter 376: What Should I Do?

“Kill!”
“Fuuuck…
H
“All!”
The training ground’s mud pit was particularly lively this afternoon.
Two companies were engaged in a rollicking brawl.
Earlier in the afternoon, during the Second Company’s collective training on capture and restraint techniques, since their last confrontation, the Third Company had been circling the camp and running to this side.
At that moment, Jiang Nan couldn’t resist making a cheeky remark: “What are you guys frolicking under my nose for?”
As a result, the company leader from the opposing side rushed over.
With a smirk, he said, “What’s the use of practicing like this? The enemy won’t follow any set moves!”
One sentence led to the current situation.
After running five kilometers together, the two companies arranged to settle it in the mud pit.
The Second Company was shirtless, while the First Company was fully clothed.
In a company-versus-company bout, they couldn’t strip down, which made it easier for everyone to let loose after getting covered in mud.
However, since it was a company versus company match, they had to be careful not to make any mistakes.
Of course, the rules remained the same: no attacks to vital areas, and no attacks that could cause permanent damage.
“Bang!”
In the muddy pit, Wang Ye, covered from head to toe in mud, kicked one of the soldiers from the Third Company directly, and then engaged in a close-quarters struggle with another Third Company soldier who lunged at him in the mud.
It had to be said that being shirtless was a real advantage in close combat.
Covered in wet mud, slippery all over, it was challenging for them to grab onto Wang Ye.
Meanwhile, Wang Ye could easily grab onto their clothing.
“Bang, bang!” Two punches landed!
“Hehe, I knew these guys would make things lively in the camp when they’re together! Look, even the First Company is joining in…”
On a small mound at the edge of the training ground in the camp, the chief of staff was smiling as he looked through binoculars, and next to him, the camp commander was also watching the mud pit with a grin.
Mud wrestling among the companies was a common occurrence.
Soldiers had a natural inclination for combat, especially the reconnaissance troops, where combat was encouraged from the top down.
Without regular scuffles, where would they find their courage and skill? It was through frequent battles that true abilities were honed.
In fact, sometimes even the camp commander would deliberately organize these kinds of bouts.
The camp commander turned to the chief of staff and said, “These soldiers have plenty of energy, but it’s not enough. Right now, we don’t have real combat situations, and going up against regular units only trains infiltration and attacks. We need more internal battles.”
He then outlined his plan for the upcoming month, saying, “Since all three companies are here, I’m planning a full-camp wilderness survival combat training at the end of this month!”
The camp commander shared his follow-up training plan.
The chief of staff, after setting down his binoculars, smiled at the camp commander.
“It’s a good idea, but it might not be enough. Our own troops need more motivation and pressure.”
After a brief pause, the chief of staff spoke again, “Here’s the thing, wait for my message. I’ll reach out and see if I can contact the reconnaissance companies from other divisions!”
The chief of staff chuckled, “Give them some added pressure and give ourselves some pressure too.”
“Sounds good!” The camp commander nodded with a smile.
As a camp commander, and with the current division commander determined to strengthen combat capabilities, he naturally wanted to improve the skills of his soldiers. However, as a camp commander, he didn’t have the authority to contact other units. Still, he was more than happy to see the chief of staff take the initiative to do so.
The chief of staff picked up his binoculars again, squinting at the two companies battling in the distance.
Internally, at this moment, the chief of staff was invigorated by the earlier conversation.
Which division to approach?
B Division, C Division, or perhaps directly reach out to those notorious troublemakers?
It would give his own troops a taste of hardship as well.
During the recent assessment of the three regiments under his command, he had criticized each company in the debriefing.
However, these criticisms were mild and didn’t leave any lasting impact. In fact, he knew that all three companies had celebrated their achievements afterward.
This couldn’t go on; he couldn’t let them become too complacent. They needed a reality check!
With this determination in mind, the chief of staff made up his mind.
Of course, he didn’t discuss this with the reconnaissance company commander beside him.
The matter was still uncertain.
Arranging a confrontation with other divisions was relatively simple.
Others would surely have some idle time, and even if they were a bit busy or the units were away on training, a little provocation would ensure they brought their troops back in a hurry.
However, he couldn’t quite figure out the special forces.
The special forces remained shrouded in mystery. Although the chief of staff also had tasks that involved helping train reconnaissance units from various divisions, the special forces had their own training plans and strategies.
In reality, despite being a major and serving as a division’s chief of staff, he couldn’t quite reach out to them. He would have to report the situation to the division commander first and then seek permission from higher authorities within the military to issue direct orders for deployment; it wasn’t something he could decide on his own.
However, he didn’t anticipate significant issues.
As long as the special forces weren’t engaged in any special training, they would likely be willing to participate in such confrontations.
Training others and oneself!
The chief of staff’s thoughts were unknown to the camp commander beside him, as well as to the Second and Third Companies still rolling in the mud pit.
In fact, neither the Second nor the Third Company was paying attention to him at the moment. They had gradually stopped their scuffle because troublemakers had arrived.
“Oh, it’s so lively here! Why didn’t you call us? Do you look down on us or something?” The company leader of the First Company arrived with his troops, looking cheerful.
Hearing that the Second and Third Companies were in the midst of a brawl, he couldn’t sit still.
This time, one of the regiments was the focus of criticism.
There was no way around it; they had the highest casualties in battle.
So, the company leader of the First Company was eager to save face. As soon as he heard that the Second and Third Companies were going at it, he urgently sounded the assembly bugle and hastily led his troops over.
In fact, they weren’t alone. Another group of female soldiers was also running towards the scene.
“What’s going on? Why stop? Just because someone arrives on the battlefield, can you all suddenly stop fighting with the enemy?” Jiang Nan didn’t pay attention to the company leader of the First Company and shouted loudly toward the muddy pit.
Immediately, the previously slowing brawl in the mud pit became lively once again.
At that moment, the company leader of the Third Company spoke to the company leader of the First Company, “Today is none of your business. You had a bad idea coming here to pick a fight. Look, Song Tianqi is here with her team. After we finish, we can give you the field!”
“Get lost, I’m not fighting with them!” The company leader of the First Company said with a scowl.
Fighting a group of women, whether winning or losing, was a matter of shame.
Looking at Jiang Nan and the company leader of the Third Company, he said, “Fine, we’re done for today. I was late. Tomorrow, let’s arrange for a match. Are you up for it?”
“Hehe, afraid of you?” The company leader of the Third Company sneered.
Jiang Nan chimed in, “Loser buys a pack of cigarettes!”
“Deal!”
The company leader of the First Company agreed, then turned to his soldiers and said, “What are you waiting for? Let’s go, take a walk outside with me!”
With the arrival of the female soldiers and the inability to join the ongoing scuffle between the Second and Third Companies, they couldn’t linger in the area.
If they were to be cornered later and asked to fight against the female soldiers, it would be a headache.
So, they decided to leave for the time being.
“Captain, the First Company has left!”
“Hmph, a bunch of cowards!”
The female squad arrived relatively late, and when they saw the First Company making a hasty exit, their squad leader couldn’t help but curse.
In fact, he had come specifically for the First Company.
He knew that the Third and Second Companies had already started, and they had even exerted more physical effort than before, making it unfair for the female soldiers to step in at this point.
So, he had anticipated the arrival of the First Company and quickly followed.
Since they couldn’t fight with the Third and Second Companies, they decided to engage the First Company.
But to their surprise, the First Company had left.
“Alright, forget about them. I’ll take you to watch the excitement!”
While they couldn’t engage in a fight anymore, they had come all the way here, and the female squad leader didn’t want to return without doing anything.
They decided to go and support the male soldiers instead!
Naturally, the arrival of the female soldiers added fuel to the fire.
In a confrontation between a group of men, dozens of women stood on the sidelines.
Even if these women looked fierce and intimidating, most of the male soldiers wouldn’t dare to have any inappropriate thoughts about them under normal circumstances.
However, it was a matter of male instinct not to show weakness in front of females.
So, with the arrival of the female soldiers, the male soldiers who had been battling in the mud pit, already exhausted, suddenly found new energy.
“Kill!”
After throwing one opponent to the ground, Wang Ye didn’t even spare him a glance and pounced directly on a Third Company soldier who was on top of a Second Company soldier in the mud pit.
He pinned the Third Company soldier down in the mud and landed a punch.
“Well done! Beat him!”
“Yes, kick him!”
ii
Get up quickly, oh my, you’re so useless!”
On the sidelines, a group of female soldiers cheered them on.
In reality, they couldn’t distinguish who was who in the mud pit at this point, but they encouraged anyone they could see in the pit.
“Hiss- Ow, damn it, those bastards from the Third Company, they really hit like hell!”
“They’ll get a taste of their own medicine tomorrow!”
Inside a dormitory, the entire class lay on their beds once again, applying ointments to each other.
Of course, during the process of applying ointment, there were plenty of sharp intakes of breath and muttered curses.
Some even cursed the female soldiers.
“Those girls can’t be taken lightly. Next time, I won’t show any mercy. I’ll give them a pair of panda eyes if 1 get the chance!”
“Exactly, Brother Qu, 1 support you!”
“Get lost! Oh, Old Wang, be gentler…”
Wang Ye, who was helping apply medicinal oil to someone’s back, chuckled, “Being too gentle won’t help with the bruising. Bear with it!”
The female soldier remained silent; she didn’t feel the need to offer any comments.
In the end, comments wouldn’t make much difference, especially since Wang Ye hadn’t suffered too much today.
After being covered in mud from head to toe, it was impossible to distinguish Wang Ye from the others, so there was no way to single him out.
Moreover, with Wang Ye’s high-level military combat skills, second-level capture and restraint techniques, along with his strength that was 1.55 times that of an average person, endurance 2.1 times that of an average person, and reflexes 1.45 times that of an average person, he didn’t have too many bruises.
Of course, there were still a few, but considering the large brawl involving nearly two hundred people, it was impossible for anyone to emerge completely unscathed, even if they were as skilled as Wang Ye.
“Exactly… Commander, isn’t it about time for the selection and recruitment phase for the Special Forces?”
“Sometimes actions speak louder than words. While the Special Forces are the dream destination for many reconnaissance soldiers, past recruitment efforts have always resulted in only a few elite representatives making the cut.”
“I believe it’s important for them to see the difference firsthand. This is the only way to truly earn the respect of our soldiers.”
“In short, I hope that our military’s Special Forces unit continues to excel!”
At the division headquarters, the chief of staff stood beside the division commander, who was currently on the phone with the corps commander.
The chief of staff had found the division commander immediately after watching the competition between the Second and Third Companies, and he had been adamant about contacting the corps commander.
Now, the phone call was connected.
“I heard that Wang Ye once again performed brilliantly in the competition you organized. You’re not trying to put the blame on my Special Forces, are you?”
The voice from the phone was clear, and even the division commander’s chief of staff could hear it distinctly.
At this moment, the division commander was slightly surprised, and he raised an inquisitive look at the chief of staff.
The chief of staff simply shook his head.
Well… at first, he didn’t have that intention.
However, later on, that expectation did arise.
Of course, it was just an expectation.
After all, Wang Ye was still a reconnaissance soldier with less than a month of service, and he didn’t dare to make big claims.
Although the division commander still had some doubts as he saw the chief of staff shaking his head, he decided to suppress those doubts and speak up.
“Commander, there’s nothing wrong with Wang Ye. He’s only been a reconnaissance soldier for a short time. Besides, you know that he initially declined the opportunity to join the Special Forces. Additionally, 1 never intended to send him to the Special Forces. 1 believe, Commander, that you also understand that he’s scheduled to go to the military academy next year.”
“I simply wanted to give the others a chance to open their eyes, to see the differences. At the same time, it would allow the personnel from the Special Forces to personally assess the level of our reconnaissance soldiers, making it easier for them to select the soldiers for their training.”
“Alright, I agree!”
The division commander agreed to the chief of staff’s proposal..
