Chapter 966: Our Soldiers Are Not Weak!
“Alright. Ask her properly. I don’t know what to do when I see her like this. You can go and watch over her as she trains. I will go to site C to take a look.” After he finished speaking, Commander Liu straightened his training cap and left in huge strides.
At 5 pm, Ye Jian finished her training for the day.
Commissar Yan had been waiting for her for a long time. He smiled as he watched her complete a few high-level moves and evade the obstacles. He clapped his hands and walked to the jeep that had turned off its engine. “Your performance in the afternoon is better than your performance in the morning. You’ve entirely entered training mode.”
“It’s better not to suspend training. It should be continuous. I feel that my performance is better in the afternoon too.” Ye Jian jumped down the jeep. In front of the tall and huge military jeep, Ye Jian seemed even more petite. However, the aura of a female soldier was evident.
A green towel was passed to her. Here, Commissar Yan and Commander Liu treated Ye Jian like their daughter. They took care of her in all areas.
Ye Jian took the towel after she smiled and thanked him. Commissar Yan said, “Come again tomorrow evening. It’s late now. Change your clothes. I will take your car to go to the city today.”
This was a good time to have a chat with her. It wasn’t good to have such a heavy heart at this young age. The killing intent in her eyes was a little heavy too. He needed to ask her clearly what happened.
It was getting late so Ye Jian shrugged her shoulders and accepted the arrangement without any objection. However, her clothes… she couldn’t really change them. She wiped the sweat off her face and smiled. “I’ll change after I go back to my school. I’ll send you to the provincial military unit first. Then, I need to return this car. I’ll save the time I need to change clothes.”
“Alright. Go and ask the sentinel to drive the car over. I’ll bring my documents along.”
After coming out from the training site, Ye Jian stood under the sunlight that was tinted with a thin layer of gold dust. She was someone who made the male soldiers feel inferior. Her slightly thin figure was standing up straight. It gave off a sharp aura like a steel gun.
After Autumn came, the scenery in the outskirts got even more desolated. The leaves and trees of an unknown tree shook as the Autumn wind blew past. A few dried pieces of leaves floated onto the ground softly. Then, another few pieces of leaves floated to the ground. Autumn seemed to have come really early this year.
Would the maple leaves on Mount Dalang be able to wait for Xia Jinyuan’s return?
Commissar Yan came out a step later than Ye Jian. He looked at the slender figure standing motionlessly under the golden sunlight. Her gaze was a little serious. There was indeed something weighing on this girl’s heart. It was a heavy thing too. No matter how straight she stood, he could sense some loneliness in her.
“Ye Jian, what are you thinking about?” Commissar Yan walked over and smiled as he said, “You seem a little unhappy? Did Commander Liu say something to you that made you angry?”
There were techniques in asking questions. Guiding someone was Commissar Yan’s forte. He didn’t ask Ye Jian directly what she was unhappy about. Instead, he went around and found a different point of penetration.
Ye Jian immediately turned and denied it. “No, no, I’m just thinking about something.”
She pursed her lips and her expression became a little stern. “Commissar, I want to ask you something. Why do other people look down on Chinese soldiers and think that the Chinese army is weak?”
This wasn’t a question that could be answered directly. Also, it was a sharp question.
“Do you think that our army is weak?” Commissar Yan asked Ye Jian back. Was this what Ye Jian had in her mind? Did someone tell her that the Chinese army was weak?
Ye Jian shook her head. Her gaze was firm as she replied, “No. I have never thought that our army is weak.”
“That’s right. Our soldiers are never weak. We train every day and defend our country as its protectors. We don’t need to prove to anyone that we are strong. The purpose of our presence is not to prove to anyone anything!
