Chapter 1091: The Youngest Major
“Who do you want to perform for?” The major general glanced at the most outstanding major that always gave him a headache. He raised his arm and looked at the time. “You can leave now. If you have any urgent matters in the future, you do not need to come personally. If there are things you need to attend to suddenly, you can take care of it yourself as the captain as long as it doesn’t violate the rules.”
Even if he wanted to come and find Ye Jian, Xia Jinyuan couldn’t leave his unit because of personal matters. He was giving special training to a regiment together with Pigeon and there were some things he couldn’t do in the middle because of his lack of authority. Thus, after asking the major general, he came here.
He was only able to stay for half a day. He came at 8 am and would leave at 4 pm.
The original plan was to leave at 4 pm but the major general was chasing him away even though it wasn’t 4 pm yet.
A soldier’s mission was to follow orders. If the general gave an order, the soldier must follow. Xia Jinyuan saluted the major general. “Yes!”
He just replied with a simple ‘yes’ and no additional words. Then, he carried out the order immediately!
He said to Principal Chen, “Uncle Chen, I will visit you next time when I have a break.”
He gave a simple and ordinary smile and a slight nod to Ye Jian. Then, he left the commander tent with huge strides.
“You have collaborated with the youngest major. He’s an outstanding soldier. If there’s a chance in the future, you can seek more advice from him.” The major general waited for Xia Jinyuan to leave before complimenting him. Then, he said to Principal Chen, “Old Chen, let Ye Jian stay here. You can leave with Major Xia later on the helicopter,”
“Don’t worry about leaving her with me. The jade has already been carved. I will make the edges smoother. I will not waste your efforts.”
Principal Chen really wanted Ye Jian to train with the military unit, especially the armored forces. Hence, he replied hurriedly, “The military is where I feel the least worried. I groomed her because I want her to serve the people of the nation. Now, she’s able to train with the armored forces because the military has high hopes for her.”
The major general didn’t deny this. He nodded in front of Ye Jian and said, “Indeed. As long as she’s able to enter any military school in our country, we will immediately start the three and a half years of inferno… Oh right, Major Xia took the same path too. He started his three and a half years of inferno training the moment he entered the military school. Ye Jian will go down the same path.”
No matter how composed Ye Jian was, she started to breathe harder at this moment uncontrollably.
Having three and a half years of inferno training just like Captain Xia! This was something she wished for!
The major general continued, “Since you came, have a good experience here. Our armored soldiers don’t just drive the armored vehicles. They need to know many other things too. Seven days is short but I hope that you can gain something.”
Ye Jian faintly sensed something amiss. This person seemed to be hinting at something.
She just arrived at this place so even if the major general was hinting at her, she wouldn’t understand it. However, since she had this feeling, she would take note of it.
The major general noticed the questioning glance in her eyes. The smile on his face got bigger.
A talented soldier was indeed different. She was able to detect something unusual in this seemingly simple sentence. This small matter was enough to show how thoughtful Ye Jian was.
In the afternoon, Principal Chen and Xia Jinyuan left together. Ye Jian sent them off until she was a small distance away from the helicopter. As she listened to the sound of the propellers, she said to Xia Jinyuan, “This year, my wish will definitely come true. Captain Xia, I’m another huge step closer to my goal.”
