Chapter 1287: Maritime Combat Training
Listening to the voices of her relatives, Ye Jian felt as peaceful as the starry sky. “You have to take care of your body too. Don’t work too hard. I have the military to take care of me. Grandpa Gen and you don’t have to worry.”
“We won’t worry, we won’t worry. You always know how to take care of yourself. It’s just that you’re too strong-willed. You’re even stronger than a male soldier. You need to change this a little. Don’t be careless during training. When you rest, you must rest well. It’s better to train when you have enough energy.”
Principal Chen, who came from the military unit, said that he wasn’t worried but he kept repeating reminders for Ye Jian, saying he was worried that Ye Jian would be too stubborn and hurt herself.
Ye Jian pursed her lips and looked at the starry sky with a smile in her black eyes. She listened to her elder’s advice quietly. Ten minutes passed.
“Your admission notice has arrived. The village leader even said that he wanted to celebrate but Grandpa Gen and I rejected him. Everyone in the vicinity knows that there’s a top scholar in Shuikou Village. Some parents even specially came over to buy your old teaching materials.”
Principal Chen’s smile got wider when he talked about the village. “Fortunately, you don’t have a photo. Uncle Gen said that if you had a photo, parents would paste it on their children’s bookshelves.”
Ye Jian smiled too. At that time, when she was in Provincial No.1 Middle School, Mrs. Tong held back all her exam papers and teaching materials. Some students would carry two big boxes of books and exam papers when they left the school. But for Ye Jian, besides a few sets of clothes, she didn’t have a single book or exam paper to bring home.
“I didn’t disturb Grandpa Gen and you, right? If people keep coming, you might as well stay in the military for a while.” Ye Jian’s expression was calm. She didn’t have the sharpness she had during the day’s training. She was like a normal girl who was far away from home. Her tone revealed her attachment to her ‘home’.
“After receiving your admission notice, we stayed in the military unit for a week before coming back. Due to your influence, many high school graduates in our village have plans to become soldiers. Even Ye Ying, who has heart disease, said that she wants to become a military arts soldier.”
Principal Chen’s expression turned cold at the mention of Ye Ying. “That aunt of yours said that Ye Ying wants to be a military arts soldier in the capital city’s political regiment. She has already handed in her file and is waiting to enlist...”
Ye Ying wants to be a military arts soldier? Was that possible?
Ye Jian chuckled. “We all know that she has heart disease and the infamous file from the military training. Isn’t she afraid that becoming a military arts soldier might all be a flash in the pan[1]?”
They ended the talk about Ye Zhifan and his family in a few sentences. Whether Ye Ying could become a military arts soldier or not, it didn’t affect Ye Jian.
If she really entered the military unit, Ye Jian felt that she would be in control of another one of Ye Zhifan’s bribery cases.
The news of Ye Ying becoming a military arts student had spread throughout the village. It even overshadowed the fact that Ye Jian got into the military school. Sun Dongqing was no longer as gloomy as before. She would happily talk about her daughter entering the military.
At this moment, Ye Jian was already sitting on the helicopter. Holding the sniper rifle, she aimed at the floating objects on the surface of the sea and started sniping from the unstable high altitude platform.
“Frogmen often need snipers to provide aerial cover on their seaplanes, and snipers need to jump into the sea to support their team members after completing their targets. We’re 57 meters away from the surface of the sea, 241 meters away from our target...”
As Li Jinnian reported a series of precise numbers, Ye Jian, who was wearing a diving suit and didn’t even have any oxygen equipment, half-squatted at the door of the helicopter. She used her hands to stabilize the sniper rifle and aimed at the floating target with her cold gaze. She calculated the wind and airflow in her heart and pulled the trigger with her slender fingers. One, two, three... A precise shot!
Bang! A 7.62mm NATO bullet shattered the object on the sea.
