With Zheng Sanpao's stern shout, the two hundred over recruits instantly became quiet. Although the standing posture and formation were still very bad, it was not as noisy as herding sheep.
"Welcome to our Special 8th Regiment, new recruits. I hope that everyone will have a pleasant time during this recruit training.”
A young military officer dressed in ordinary clothes with a captain on his shoulder said to Qin Feng, Zhuang Yan and the others in a clear voice.
His name was Wang Yang, and he was the chief instructor in charge of the recruit training this time.
Wang Yang pursed his lips and continued.
"Alright, let's start choosing soldiers."
At this point, Wang Yang paused and looked at Zheng Sanpao before continuing.
"First Class Monitor, you go first."
Zheng Sanpao replied loudly when he heard Wang Yang's words.
"Yes, sir!"
After saying that, Zheng Sanpao walked to the front of the first row of recruits. Chen Xiwa, Qin Feng and Zhuang Yan were all standing in the first row.
Zheng Sanpao stopped in front of Chen Xiwa and said.
"Come, smile."
When Chen Xiwa heard Zheng Sanpao's words, she couldn't help but look confused. She didn't understand what Zheng Sanpao was up to.
However, even though she was confused, Chen Xiwa still followed Zheng Sanpao's words and chuckled.
Seeing this, Zheng Sanpao glanced at Chen Xiwa and said.
"Step forward."
Chen Xiwa didn't hesitate at all when she heard that. She answered yes and walked out of the line.
After that, Zheng Sanpao circled around the 200 recruits a few more times and selected five recruits. After that, Zheng Sanpao arrived in front of Zhuang Yan and Qin Feng.
Zheng Sanpao looked at Zhuang Yan and Qin Feng, his eyes filled with scrutiny.
Zhuang Yan felt extremely uncomfortable under Zheng Sanpao's gaze, but Qin Feng did not feel uncomfortable at all. He met Zheng Sanpao's gaze very calmly, as if Zheng Sanpao was air.
After a full two minutes, Zheng Sanpao retracted his gaze and said to Qin Feng and Zhuang Yan.
"The two of you, step forward."
When Zhuang Yan and Qin Feng heard Zheng Sanpao's words, they replied in unison, then walked out of the formation together.
Including Zhuang Yan, Qin Feng, and Chen Xiwa, Zheng Sanpao selected a total of twelve recruits.
After Zheng Sanpao finished selecting the recruits, the other instructors also started to select the recruits they liked.
Half an hour later, the division of troops was over. Each instructor brought their own recruits and began training.
In a corner of the wide training ground, Qin Feng, Zhuang Yan, Chen Xiwa, and the other 12 recruits stood in a neat row. In front of these recruits stood Zheng Sanpao, who was dressed in a normal uniform.
Zheng Sanpao looked at Qin Feng and the others as he said in a clear voice.
"Comrades, let me ask you a question. If we were on the battlefield, would any of you be willing to take a bullet for me?”
As Zheng Sanpao finished speaking, Chen Xiwa and the others couldn't help but be stunned. Obviously, they didn't expect Zheng Sanpao to ask them such a question.
At this moment, Qin Feng said in a clear voice.
"Report!"
Zheng Sanpao couldn't help but say when he heard Qin Feng's words.
"Speak!"
Qin Feng continued speaking in a clear voice.
"If we were on the battlefield, I would be willing to take a bullet for the class monitor.”
When Zheng Sanpao heard Qin Feng's reply, he couldn't help but look at Qin Feng in surprise. Clearly, he didn't expect Qin Feng to reply in this manner.
Zheng Sanpao could tell from Qin Feng's clear eyes that his answer came from the bottom of his heart.
As the saying went, the eyes were the windows to the soul. Sometimes, one could tell if a person was sincere by looking at their eyes.
Zheng Sanpao believed that if it was on the battlefield, Qin Feng would definitely do as he said and block bullets for him.
Zheng Sanpao slightly nodded at Qin Feng. From this moment on, Zheng Sanpao looked at Qin Feng with a hint of approval.
"I don't know if you're willing to take a bullet for me, but on the battlefield, as long as you wear the military uniform of Nine Regions, I'll take a bullet for you.”
Zheng Sanpao withdrew his gaze from Qin Feng and said to Chen Xiwa and the others in a clear voice.
Zhuang Yan could not help but snort coldly when he heard Zheng Sanpao's words.
"Unless there's a bump in my head, I won't block bullets for you.”
Obviously, not long ago, Zheng Sanpao stared at Zhuang Yan for a while, causing Zhuang Yan to be very unhappy with Zheng Sanpao.
Even though Zhuang Yan spoke very softly, Zheng Sanpao still heard him.
Instantly, Zheng Sanpao's expression darkened as he shouted at Qin Feng, Zhuang Yan and the rest.
"Who's talking?"
Chen Xiwa and the others shook their heads, indicating that it wasn't them.
Qin Feng glanced at Zhuang Yan, his eyes filled with anger.
Zhuang Yan noticed Qin Feng's gaze and couldn't help but smile awkwardly. After that, Zhuang Yan spoke to Zheng Sanpao.
"Sir, I was the one who spoke just now.”
Zheng Sanpao heard Zhuang Yan's words and couldn't help but sneer.
"Okay, because of this soldier, what's your name?”
Zhuang Yan replied indifferently.
"Zhuang Yan."
Zheng Sanpao continued after hearing Zhuang Yan's reply.
"Because of Zhuang Yan's mistake, all of you will be punished. Now, on my signal, everyone turn right.”
As Zheng Sanpao's voice fell, Zhuang Yan could not help but look at Zheng Sanpao and said coldly.
"It was my mistake. Why should I punish everyone?”
Zheng Sanpao replied calmly.
"Because all of you are a unit. If one of you makes a mistake, everyone will be punished.”
When Zhuang Yan heard Zheng Sanpao's words, he opened his mouth and was about to say something. At this moment, Qin Feng, who was beside Zhuang Yan, stretched out his hand and pulled on Zhuang Yan's sleeve. He then shook his head.
When Zhuang Yan saw Qin Feng's expression, he instantly understood that Qin Feng was asking him to stop talking.
Zhuang Yan still listened to Qin Feng's words. Zhuang Yan took a deep breath and glared fiercely at Zheng Sanpao, not saying anything else.
When Zheng Sanpao saw this scene, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned. Clearly, he didn't expect Zhuang Yan to listen to Qin Feng's words so much.
With Zheng Sanpao's many years of experience in training recruits, he could naturally tell that Zhuang Yan was a particularly thorny soldier.
Thorn-headed soldiers were usually arrogant and unruly, and it was difficult for people with this kind of personality to be particularly convinced.
Qin Feng shook his head slightly and made Zhuang Yan listen obediently. How could this not shock Zheng Sanpao?
