Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1371: Chapter 818: Changing One’s Mind

”One, two, one! One, two, one! One, two, one...” Zhu Hongyu shouted the slogan, running at the front of the team. Seeing Luo Ye standing on the edge of the playground, she shouted without stopping, ”Don’t just stand there dumbly, join us for the drill.”

When Luo Ye arrived at the Sha City base, it was only a little after seven-thirty in the morning. Zhu Hongyu wasn’t in the office, so she came to the playground, and sure enough, there she was.

Amid the synchronized footsteps, the female soldiers turned their heads towards Luo Ye: ”One, two, one! One, two, one! Please join! One, two, one! One, two, one! Please join...”

The deafening roar, the youthful faces, the powerful strides... Everything in front of her made Luo Ye, who hadn’t participated in a drill for several months, feel an itch in her heart.

She quickly warmed up, then caught up with Zhu Hongyu, walking side by side with her. At that moment, she had no distractions in her mind, just the thought that she was a soldier! A passionate soldier!

The office of the deputy commander of the third unit was directly facing the East Playground. When Qian Jiale looked up, he happened to see Luo Ye joining the team and keeping pace with Zhu Hongyu.

Recalling Feng Tianzhi’s instructions when he left, he hurried to the next office to find Political Commissar Qi Xing: ”Mr. Qi, it seems Luo Ye has arrived, what should we do?”

”We must make sure she stays, what else can we do?” Qi Xing stood up and walked outside, ”If we let this important figure go, would the boss forgive us?”

Both of them were once Feng Tianzhi’s trusted aides. After being transferred to B Division, Feng Tianzhi brought them along as well, but unexpectedly, the Feng Family had such a scandal, forcing Feng Tianzhi to temporarily suspend his duties.

Fortunately, the higher-ups only intended for Feng Tianzhi to lay low temporarily, so they didn’t appoint a new commander. Instead, they let Qian Jiale temporarily act as Feng Tianzhi’s replacement. Their arrangements were akin to preserving Feng Tianzhi’s position due to Qian Jiale and Qi Xing’s loyalty to him.

”Mr. Qi, hold on.” Qian Jiale pulled Qi Xing back, ”We don’t know anything yet, why rush over recklessly?”

”It’s about attitude!” Qi Xing glared back at him, ”An attitude of respect, an attitude of importance. Do you understand, you rough man?”

When the two of them arrived at the edge of the playground, the morning drill had just ended. After the lineup, Zhu Hongyu pointed at Luo Ye and introduced her to the team: ”This is Major Luo, who will be our Female Special Forces Team’s deputy and instructor. Everyone, welcome!”

”Bravo, bravo, bravo!”

The applause was enthusiastic, but the expressions of the team members were not that enthusiastic.

Well, eighteen or nineteen-year-old girls, whose youth could drip water, the rank of major—it was indeed hard for them to accept. Being able to keep up in a morning drill wasn’t much!

”Don’t judge our Major Luo by her age...”

Luo Ye quickly pinched Zhu Hongyu, giving her a meaningful glance.

Briefly surprised, disappointment flashed in Zhu Hongyu’s eyes: ”Dismissed!”

After the team disbanded, a black-faced female soldier in her early twenties approached Zhu Hongyu quickly and saluted, ”Captain Zhu, should I lead the morning training today?”

Zhu Hongyu nodded: ”Yes, lead the training as discussed yesterday, and let Che Xiaohong and Liu Yuerong assist you.”

”Yes!” The girl clicked her heels, saluted, and left without even glancing at Luo Ye standing beside Zhu Hongyu.

”Don’t mind, these female soldiers are the top picks from all over, quite proud indeed. If I hadn’t grown up rolling and crawling in the army, gaining their respect would have been difficult.

They will only genuinely respect those who are strong, so if you want to earn their respect, it must be through showing strength.”

”A tactic of provocation?” Luo Ye shook her head with a smile, ”Major Zhu, you already understand my intentions, right?”

”Why?”

”Major Luo, I’ve been looking forward to your arrival!”

”Major Luo, when Feng Tuan was leaving, he repeatedly emphasized that after you start working in our division, we must show you the utmost hospitality.”

Qian Jiale and Qi Xing walked over at the right moment.

Although Luo Ye was not very familiar with them, she had met them a few times and knew they were Feng Tianzhi’s trusted aides. Hence, she smiled and said, ”Deputy Commander Qian, Instructor Qi, such a grand lineup, I can hardly withstand it.”

”No matter how grand the lineup, it’s what you deserve. The commander instructed that you are equivalent to him, and we must listen to your orders just as we listen to his.”

It seems the kind of officer reflects the kind of soldiers he has! Luo Ye smiled at Qian Jiale: ”Is that so? That’s how Deputy Commander Qian thinks?”

Qian Jiale patted his chest: ”Of course, as a real man, what I say counts. Major Luo, just give your command, whatever the task, we will go through fire and water without hesitation.”
