Chapter 265: First Experience with the Infantry Chariot

“Damn, what is this? Damn, second-class merit!”

“Brother Wang, you… You just left for a while and you came back with second-class merit?”

In the dormitory, everyone was dumbfounded.

They all flocked over and peered at the medal box and certificate Wang Ye was holding.

Secretly granting merit and not publicizing it did not mean that he could not share it with anyone else.

Of course, Wang Ye didn’t steal second-class merit. It was fine as long as he didn’t spread this matter to widely.

For example, Wang Ye was openly bringing it into the dormitory.

If the people in the class saw it, so be it.

Wang Ye did not come back alone.

“Alright, attention!”

At this moment, Wu Jian Feng appeared at the door and pretended to be serious.

Everyone turned around right away. They promptly returned to the beds on both sides and stood straight up when they spotted Wu Jian Feng.

Wu Jian Feng walked into the dormitory and closed the door behind him.

Looking around at everyone, Wu Jian Feng said, “Wang Ye’s second-class merit is awarded in recognition of his great meritorious service in the Deng Hai incident!”

These words made everyone sigh in their hearts.

That was true. Now that everyone was with Wang Ye every day, there was nothing else to do before.

Wang Ye hadn’t even seen the criminals despite having been on a mission today. If he could be awarded second-class merit, so could they.

Wu Jian Feng didn’t care what everyone thought. At this moment, he said again, “But Deng Hai’s case is very serious. It involves the reputation of our regiment and even our division.”

“So, the higher-ups ordered that Wang Ye’s second-class merit not be publicized or spread!”

After saying this, he looked at Zhou Qi, but then he ignored him and looked at the third platoon leader in the dormitory, “Platoon Leader Meng, get everyone to write a confidentiality agreement.”

“Yes, sir!”

Meng Wen Bin stood up straight and answered.

“All right, that’s it. Don’t make any noise. Do what needs to be done. I’m leaving!”

Wu Jian Feng did not stay for long. After he left, the dormitory door was closed again.

But now, everyone was as chaotic as when Wang Ye came in just now.

They were still standing there obediently.

“Cough cough- How about this, comrade Wang Ye, you can put away your medal first!”

Meng Wen Bin stood up and said to Wang Ye with a smile.

“Yes!”

Wang Ye smiled and nodded, but he didn’t take action immediately. Instead, he looked at everyone and smiled apologetically, “I’m really sorry about that. I’ve done a meritorious deed, but I’ve also implicated everyone in writing a confidentiality agreement.”

He looked at Zhou Qi and Meng Wen Bin, “I’ll go to the service center and buy some food for everyone as compensation. How about that?”

“What kind of trouble is this?” Zhou Qi grinned.

He looked at the others and smiled, “Let me tell you. If any of you have the ability, I’ll write a confidentiality agreement every day. I’ll write from morning to night. I’ll write it all day without sleeping!”

If a class member performed a meritorious deed, regardless of whether the function could be publicized or not, the class monitor would still have a share of the glory.

Therefore, he was in a good mood now.

Of course, the others were not unhappy.

Peng Yu Hang laughed, “Brother Wang, it’s fine for me to write this confidentiality agreement. I just want one thing from you. Can 1 wear your medal of merit? No, no, no. Just let me touch it!”

He actually wanted to say that he would wear it and then take this photo but he remembered what the captain had just stated, he quickly modified his comments from saying that he would wear it and then take this picture to just touching it.

If he said that, he would be finished. He was afraid that he would not be able to finish it with a confidentiality agreement later.

At this moment, platoon leader Meng Wen Bin also smiled and said, “The lights are going out today. Don’t go to the service center.”

“Of course, if you’re happy after you’ve rendered a meritorious service, you can just give everyone a bottle of drink tomorrow. It’ll be considered as your treat, not some compensation for implicating us!”

“Okay!”

Wang Ye agreed immediately.

He was indeed happy that he had made a contribution.

Of course, it was a second-class merit. How could he not be happy?

That night, Wang Ye dreamed that he had returned home in a military uniform with his second-class and third-class merit badges hanging on his chest. He even seemed to have first-class merit badges.

He appeared to have arrived at his family’s ancestral hall. Then, a stunning girl who had a hesitant expression on her face had sent him flowers. Then came an elderly man who didn’t leave a lasting impression on him. He was loudly reporting to his ancestors while incense-burning, asking them to open a separate page of the family tree just for him.

“Start the car…”

“Open the Dust Extraction…”

On the spacious training ground, Wang Ye sat in the driver’s seat of the combat vehicle.

With every operation, Wang Ye would loudly report the actions of the operation.

Another ten days passed after he received the second-class merit. Zhang Wen Du left Class Eight today and went to the training team.

As for Wang Ye, today was the first time he could finally sit in the chariot and start driving it.

He and Zhang Wen had previously only learned the theoretical teachings of Zhuo Zi Cheng. Even if they were to sit in the driver’s seat, all they would be doing is showing the students how to operate the car. They would then obey Zhou Qi and the others’ verbal orders and drive the unstarted car in order to imitate driving without really starting it.

Throughout the entire journey, the armored vehicle’s driver, Zhuo Zi Cheng, would be watching from behind.

However, today, Wang Ye could finally get his hands on it.

A rumbling sound could be heard as the car’s engine was working…

“Take your time, don’t be nervous!”

In the cabin, Zhuo Zi Cheng stuck his head out and looked behind Wang Ye, making a sound.

As for Zhou Qi, he was in the captain’s cabin next door.

“Advance!”

Zhou Qi’s command came from the earpiece.

Immediately, Wang Ye shouted as he operated, “Put it in first gear… Lifting the clutch… Step on the accelerator…”

The 86A Infantry Tank had the same gears as a manual car. They had five forward gears and one reverse gear.

Driving it was actually quite easy for Wang Ye, who had been an experienced driver in his previous life.

After shifting gears, he gave her gas and left.

The only difference was that the field of vision inside the chariot was very poor. They could only observe the external environment through the four periscopes. Then, they had to determine the position of the 6.7-meter-long and nearly three-meter-wide giant.

“I’m so envious. When can I drive this thing?” On the side of the training ground, Peng Yu Hang’s eyes flashed with envy as he spoke.

They were currently farther than 100 meters from the chariot. The remaining members of Class Eight, aside from Wang Ye, Zhou Qi, and Zhuo Zi Cheng, were awaiting in the chariot.

After all, as a novice driver, everyone was afraid that Wang Ye would overturn the car if they stayed in the car.

Although the training ground was relatively stable and the chariot was very heavy, it would not overturn.

However, it was hard to say for sure. Last year, he heard that there was a student from the disciplinary team who overturned the armored vehicle…

“Hehe, the chances are very slim, or rather, there’s no chance!” Wei Qing Hai was not stingy with his words. He looked at him and said with a smile.

“Brother Wei, you don’t have to be so direct, right?” Peng Yu Hang answered with a bitter face.”

“Haha, what do you think? Unless you have the intention to keep Officer Liu”

“Of course, the prerequisite was that you had the strength to stay.”

“Otherwise, why would he drive a war chariot when he was going back in two years?”

“Are you very happy?” At this moment, Qiao Xuan suddenly turned his head and looked over.

Wei Qing Hai, who was first giggling joyfully, scratched his nose and no longer dared to chuckle after just one sentence.

“Humph!” Qiao Xuan snorted, then looked at Peng Yu Hang again and said, “Don’t look at him. You’re just playing, so who knows what the future will be?”

“Unlike him, who hadn’t improved in the past year.”

“Of course, a player who was just fooling around wouldn’t be able to drive it, but as long as you work hard, I guarantee that you will definitely have a chance to drive a tank!”

Qiao Xuan did not give Wei Qing Hai any face at all.

Of course, what he said was also the truth.

Or rather, he had already said this many times, and Wei Qing Hai himself was immune to it.

“Yes, vice-captain, 1 will definitely work hard!”

Peng Yu Hang immediately expressed his stance.

He wasn’t like Wei Qing Hai, who was a first-class soldier.

He was only in the lower company, but he still maintained his enthusiasm for the military camp. Moreover, although it was quite a blow to have a fellow soldier like Wang Ye in his class, it was also very exciting sometimes.

Just like now, he was provoked..
