Chapter Five Talents

  "Go get the files of this Lao Wang and Ye Tianming."

  Liu Bing turned around and walked out, soon bringing back a document and handing it over to Zhao Weidong.

  Zao Weidong took it over and opened the folder.

  Wang Jianbo, male, born in 1970, 32 years old. Enlisted in 1987, junior high school culture, served in the Nanjing Military Region Special Forces Brigade, active duty officer, lieutenant colonel rank, ancestral home Henan Province Zhuozhou City.

  Ye Tianming, male, born in 1982, 20 years old. Enlisted in 1998, high school education, served in the Northeast Field Army Special Operations Company, active-duty officer. Ancestral home is Shenyang City, Liaoning Province.

  Zhao Weidong saw that there was more information about Ye Tianming below, so he continued to read. This person had been practicing martial arts since childhood and had a strong sense of justice. He couldn't stand seeing his superiors bullying soldiers, so he beat them up multiple times. As a result, he spent over 200 days out of the year in solitary confinement. However, every time he would somehow manage to sneak out and return to his dormitory to sleep. No matter what methods were used, it was useless - he would go in during the day and come out at night. Everyone wanted to know how he did it, but no matter who asked, he wouldn't say. This became a mystery that everyone in the entire Wild Battle Army wanted to solve. For the soldiers, from the highest commanders to the lowest squad leaders, Ye Tianming was a headache - he would make small mistakes repeatedly, but never big ones, and there was nothing they could do with him. They could only watch as he "acted above the law" and roamed freely in the military district without anyone daring to stop him. He became a unique figure in the military district. Before joining the army, Ye Tianming had been imprisoned for 10 months for killing a would-be rapist while defending himself. After his release from prison, he joined the underworld because of his ruthless and fearless nature, quickly gaining a reputation in Shenyang. Later, his family members were worried that he would get into trouble, so they used their connections to send him into the army. Due to his good physical condition and martial arts skills, Ye Tianming became the champion of the military district's annual martial arts competition every year. The military district had originally planned to cultivate him as a key talent, but he just wouldn't behave - he would constantly cause trouble and stir up conflicts. In the end, the military district's leaders had no choice but to send him to the Blue Sword Special Forces. Finally, there was a special notation marked "extremely dangerous".

  "It seems that the person who wrote this passage is quite familiar with Zhao Weidong, otherwise he wouldn't have written this introduction."

  Zhao Weidong laughed when he saw this and said: What a talent! This person is absolutely a genius, I've decided.

  Liu Bing and Wang Feng couldn't help but burst out laughing too, apparently they had seen these materials before and had a very deep impression of Ye Tianming.

  "This rain is great, let's go and give them a good drill, can't let them be too idle."

  "Wang Feng hesitated and said: Captain, they just arrived today, the intensity of the training this afternoon was so high, and now it's still raining heavily outside, can they handle it?"

  "Zhao Weidong said: As a soldier, one must adapt to all kinds of environments and weather. If they can't take it, they don't deserve to be here. What we want are elites, not spoiled soldiers. In battle, would you stop fighting just because it's raining?"

  Just then a report interrupted their conversation, "Come in," Zhao Weidong shouted.

  "It was the general's orderly who came in and said to Zhao Weidong: The commander-in-chief wants you to go over."

  "Zhao Weidong waved his hand and said: You go back first, we will arrive soon."

  "General's office, General you look for us have matter?"

  Qin Dahai raised his head and said: "Yes, I looked at the training materials you sent today. I didn't expect so many to be eliminated on the first day. I'm a bit worried that our Blue Sword may not be as glorious as it was in your time."

  "Zhao Weidong smiled and handed over the document he was holding to the general, saying: Take a look at this document first."

  Qin Dahai opened the file with a puzzled expression, but suddenly burst out laughing. He said: This little guy named Ye Tianming is not bad, he's a good seedling, with a good foundation. I hope you can cultivate him into a second version of yourselves to continue our Blue Sword's undefeated legend. In recent years, foreign hostile forces have begun to stir again, and without you, Blue Sword would be finished. Now that there's a successor, I can finally rest easy.

  "You're not young anymore, you've paid so much for the country, it's time to rest. Wait until he grows up, then you can go back and marry a wife, have a child, and live an ordinary life."

  "General, do you think we can still adapt to life outside?" Zhao Weidong said with a bitter smile. "The peaceful life outside is no longer suitable for us. We are born killing machines. Who would want to live with people like us?"

  Qin Dahai fell silent after listening to Zhao Weidong's words.

  Zhao Weidong saw Qin Dahai's appearance and said: This is nothing, this is also our fate.

  "After finishing with a haha... laugh, he continued to say magnanimously: I want to train this kid into a real all-around warrior, and make him the nightmare of our enemies."

  The tired soldiers fell asleep as soon as they lay down on their beds, and every dormitory was filled with snores. No matter how loud the thunder was outside, they wouldn't be woken up.

  However, there was one exception, Ye Tianming, who sat neatly on the bed, staring out with wide eyes. He muttered to himself, "Damn it, with such a big rain, I don't believe they can let us sleep peacefully."

  "It's really hard to believe that after a day of high-intensity training, he's still so spirited. His eyes are shining like light bulbs, and his eyeballs are rolling around restlessly."
