Chapter 9

Ye Tianming opened his mouth but could not utter a word, as if he had swallowed dozens of flies. He thought to himself, damn it, you are ruthless, but who told you to be the instructor

At that moment, the emergency assembly alarm rang out, and the dormitory was filled with curses. "Is this still a place for humans? We've already been training for two days and nights, and now we have to assemble again. Are we not allowed to live?"

Ye Tianming saw his fierce expression and could only lie back down reluctantly, saying: "Why are you so agitated? It's just two questions. If you don't want to answer, then don't. Why act like you're about to eat someone?"

Prime Minister, I would like to request the Blue Sword to be deployed to eliminate them

Ye Tianming, I asked you to seize the flag, not to carry the flagpole as well. Since you enjoy carrying it so much, now you will run fifty laps around the playground while carrying it. You are not allowed to stop until you have completed the laps.

General Zhang placed the documents in front of the Prime Minister and said: "Prime Minister, trouble has arisen. According to intelligence reports, Sri Lanka has not completely eradicated the Tamil Tigers. Their remnants have escaped to our Yunnan border and have already established contact with the East Turkestan terrorist organization. There are indications that they intend to infiltrate our territory."

Ye Tianming arrived at the foot of the cliff and looked up. Then, with a powerful leap, he reached out to grab a protruding rock. After carefully selecting his landing point, he exerted force with his arms and ascended more than 10 meters. With a tip of his toes on the rock, he made just a few jumps and reached the top of the cliff

On the playground stood the eliminated soldiers. Wang Feng asked, "Captain, do you think Bai Ze can defeat Ye Tianming?"

Wang Honglei exclaimed after hearing his words: "I say, my friend, are you even human? How could you single-handedly eliminate so many people?"

Qin Dahai stated: "Sri Lanka has not completely eradicated them; the remaining personnel have already fled to our Yunnan border. Our task is to eliminate both them and the East Turkestan personnel who are assisting them"

Everyone present, upon hearing about the mission, which was not a training exercise but a real deployment to the battlefield, had their eyes shining like light bulbs, their excitement evident. Gone was the listlessness they had when they first arrived; now they appeared invigorated and full of spirit

He turned to Bai Ze and said, "I must thank you very much for saving me a great deal of effort"

Ye Tianming looked at the red flag fluttering atop the cliff in the distance, letting out a strange laugh, "I have won."

Bai Ze said with a bitter smile: "I never expected to be defeated by you so quickly, allowing you to take advantage of the situation."

Upon hearing him say that his master is Wang Feng, everyone gasped in astonishment, rendered speechless.

Bai Ze questioned on www.hetushu.com: "What are you doing? Why don't you take down the red flag? Carrying a flagpole like that, aren't you tired?"

They were eliminated by me; you won this training match.

Before long, Ye Tianming appeared, swaying as he carried a thick and tall flagpole, his face full of pride.

The people on the playground all looked at him with glee and malice.

Qin Dahai nodded: "We have a mission."

Violation of discipline? Destruction of facilities?

Ye Tianming's previously proud expression suddenly vanished, replaced by a face full of bitterness. With a mournful look, he said, "Instructor, I won this confrontation, so why are you still punishing me?"

Oh? Zhao Weidong's eyes lit up as he said, "General, it seems that we haven't had a mission for a long time. Could it be that those guys from East Turkestan have united with some other country to cause trouble again?"

Zhao Weidong looked at him with a sense of frustration, thinking that if I don't let you experience some hardship, you will never settle down.

Come in

Ye Tianming's arrival was not particularly surprising; it would be unexpected if someone in this position as an instructor did not possess considerable skills

Zhao Weidong said: "The Tiger Organization? Haven't they already been eliminated by the Sri Lankan government forces?"

Zhou Jiang saw Ye Tianming's wrist and with a snap, threw his arm away. Irritated, he said to the librarian: "Ye Tianming, you rascal, you don't need rest. You can mess with me as you please, but I can't. I am but a flesh-and-blood being, and I haven't rested for two days and nights. Can't you let me have a good sleep?"

Wang Honglei's eyes lit up as he asked, "Who is your master? I also want to take him as my teacher"

The Prime Minister furrowed his brow as he reviewed the documents in his hand and said: "We cannot allow them to enter the country; if they join forces with the East Turkestan group, it would be a significant problem"

Ye Tianming helplessly carried the flagpole and began to run around the playground. At this moment, he did not feel that carrying the flagpole was impressive at all; he wished he could chew it up and eat it, as that would be more comfortable than carrying it.

Zhao Weidong pointed to a nearby military vehicle and said, "There are weapons on the vehicle that you need. I will give you five minutes to select the weapons that suit you best"

Bai Ze smiled faintly: "I still have a long way to go. If it were my master who took action, I believe that apart from Ye Tianming, you would all have been eliminated."

Qin Dahai shook his head: "No, it is the Tiger Organization. They have already contacted the East Turkestan group to escape into our country."

Ye Tianming circled the flagpole several times, chuckling to himself. With a smile, he reached out and grasped the flagpole, which was as thick as a baby's arm, and with a forceful pull, he snapped it in half with a crack. He then hoisted it onto his shoulder and leaped off the cliff, landing with a thud on the ground, completely unscathed.

Report to the instructor, Ye Tianming has completed the task and is here to report.

Bai Ze smiled and said, "You all know my master; his name is Wang Feng"

Zhou Jiang rolled his eyes, ignored him, and turned over to lie back down.

Ye Tianming lay in bed, muttering to himself, filled with indignation as he cursed: "What a damn disgrace, to actually say that I do not follow orders and that I have damaged the base facilities"

At this moment, he noticed that everyone on the playground was looking at him with a gaze of disbelief. Zhao Weidong was truly at a loss for words; this kid always managed to create some sort of trouble, no matter the time. He had asked him to retrieve the red flag, and now he had even brought back the flagpole.

Ye Tianming smiled proudly and said, "Don't you think I look quite impressive like this?"

After muttering, I grabbed Zhou Jiang, who was lying on the upper bunk, and asked: "Old Zhou, do you think I disobey orders? Have I damaged the base facilities?"

Upon hearing his words, everyone was rendered speechless

Blue Sword Training Base, General Qin Dahai's Office, "Report!"

Zhou Jiang had just dozed off when he was startled awake by Ye Tianming grabbing him. He rolled over and sat up in bed, seizing Ye Tianming's wrist and twisting it forcefully, which elicited a cry of pain. This sound jolted Zhou Jiang fully awake.

The roar of the helicopter echoed overhead as a domestically produced Z-10 attack helicopter slowly descended onto the helipad

I asked you to take the flag, not to bring the flagpole as well. Is this not a violation of discipline? You broke the flagpole; is this not a destruction of base facilities?

However, it was not reflected on his face, as he coldly stated with the same indifferent expression: "This assembly is not for training. According to orders from higher authorities, we are to carry out a mission at the Yunnan border. The remnants of the Sri Lankan Tiger Organization have already infiltrated our border, and our task is to eliminate them"

Zhao Weidong pushed the door open and walked in, asking: "General, did you need to see me for something?"

Zhao Weidong stood on the playground, looking at the weary soldiers before him, feeling a deep sense of compassion in his heart

Hmph, Zhao Weidong snorted, you have violated the rules and damaged the facilities of the base, shouldn't you be punished

Everyone looked up at the jungle, and in the distance, they saw a red flag flying high, slowly moving towards them

The Prime Minister pondered for a moment and said: "The Blue Sword, yes, it has not appeared for several years. It is time to let them come out and show themselves; it seems that some people have almost forgotten about them."

The Prime Minister raised his head and looked at the gray-haired general standing in front of him, asking in confusion: "Old Zhang, what important matter brings you here in person"

Zhao Weidong pointed at the jungle and said, "Bai Ze has already lost"

Zhao Weidong stands at attention: "I guarantee the completion of the task"
