Chapter 22: Thunderbolt Means

  The third company has more than 200 people, excluding those on duty as sentries and in the kitchen and sanitation teams, at least over 170 people participated in morning training. But now there are less than 100 people, what's going on? Didn't giving themselves a warning yesterday enough, do they want to continue today?

  Wang Yuez's face was extremely gloomy, he couldn't tolerate others provoking him again and again. He needed to take control of this troop as soon as possible, there wasn't much time to waste on those guys.

  "What's going on with three rows missing? Who hasn't arrived?" Wang Yuezhe bellowed loudly.

  "Report to the company commander. The first platoon leader and three squad leaders of the first platoon, as well as some soldiers, are absent! The second platoon leader and some soldiers of the second platoon are also absent!" replied Shi Deyou, the third platoon leader, after taking a look. His third platoon, which he had specifically instructed beforehand, was present in full for this morning's training exercises.

  "Hmph!" Wang Yuze let out a cold snort, his face looking unpleasant as he gazed at the dormitory building beside the playground. He knew that right now, there were many people inside waiting to see him make a fool of himself. If that was the case, then he couldn't let them have their way.

  "You don't give me face, so I can't blame myself for taking action." Wang Yuezhe said quietly.

  "Wang Wei, why didn't you attend morning training without a reason? How should I punish you?" Wang Yuezhe asked loudly.

  "Company Commander, according to the military law of Western Sichuan Army, those who do not participate in morning training without reason will be punished with 20 military clubs, and officers will be doubled!" Wang Wei said loudly.

  "Shi Pai Chang, did you hear that? Your men will take action immediately and execute military law!" Wang Ze commanded.

  "Commander, is this right?" Shi De You hesitated. After all, most of the people in the first and second rows hadn't arrived, so doing it like this might cause a commotion, right? If that really happened, then things would get out of hand.

  "Report to the company commander, the first and second platoons went on a mission yesterday and didn't return until midnight. They also didn't attend this morning's training session for a reason." Suddenly, a young officer in his early twenties with slightly dark skin stood up.

  "Who are you?" Wang Yuze asked. He had just arrived, and apart from the officer who had welcomed him yesterday, all the other officers were unfamiliar to him.

  "Reporting to Company Commander, I am Deputy Platoon Leader Shen Ming of the First Platoon." The young officer reported loudly.

  "Alright, you're now the deputy platoon leader of this row, coordinate with Shi Platoon Leader's actions! Any questions?" Wang Ze's eyes were fixed tightly on Shen Ming, waiting for his response.

  "Ah!" Shen Ming was stunned, originally he stood out to bail out the crowd. Although he and the first row were not on good terms, so he didn't follow the arrangement of the first row leader to participate in the morning training. But he also didn't want so many people in the first row to be subject to military law. So, he came forward to explain. However, he did not expect Wang Yuze to be so bold, directly relieving the first row leader of his duties and letting him take over temporarily. This made Shen Ming somewhat hesitant. But then he made up his mind. If one doesn't take care of oneself, heaven and earth will destroy them! By siding with Wang Yuze, he could seize the opportunity to get the position of first row leader, what could be better than getting a real official position?

  "Report to Commander, Shen Ming guarantees completion of the task!" Shen Ming replied loudly.

  "Alright, alright! Is the deputy squad leader of the second row present?" Wang Yuezhe nodded and looked at others.

  "Report to the company commander, Second Platoon Deputy Platoon Leader Lei Jiaping reporting for duty, please instruct." A sturdy young officer stood up, seeing Shen Ming suddenly appointed as acting platoon leader, his heart was burning with fire. Although he had a good relationship with the second platoon leader, if he had the opportunity to replace him, he would not let go of such an opportunity.

  As expected, Wang Yuzhe did not disappoint Leijia Ping and said what he wanted to hear.

  "Lei, deputy platoon leader, you are now acting as the second platoon leader. Have your men coordinate with the third platoon leader. Any questions?" Wang Yuzhe asked.

  "Report to the company commander, no problem, Lei Jiapeng guarantees to complete the task!" Lei Jiapeng replied excitedly. In order to get rid of this position, he was immediately sold out by the previous second squad leader.

  "Very well, execute the order!" Wang Yuez's face revealed a smile. Pulling and hitting, dividing and dissolving. Using such means to deal with an enemy whose position was originally not firm, is undoubtedly the most effective.

  "Third row, follow me!" Third-row leader Shi De-you shouted loudly and rushed towards the barracks first. Seeing that Wang Yu-ze had gained the support of most people with just a few words, he didn't dare to slow down, this was a great opportunity to show his loyalty! Shen Ming and Lei Jia-ping also quickly led their men to follow, they had just defected to Wang Yu-ze's side and needed to make achievements to gain his favor.

  "Damn it, those two traitors!" In the barracks, two young officers in their early twenties were closely watching the development of the situation on the drill ground. Seeing Shen Ming and Lei Jiaping being subdued by Wang Yuze, they became even more furious. The two of them were the company commander and deputy company commander. They had originally thought of giving Wang Yuze another blow, but unexpectedly, Wang Yuze directly relieved them of their duties.

  "Let's go, the two of us are done for now, let's admit defeat!" A long sigh escaped his lips, although he wouldn't actually concede. But a good man doesn't take unnecessary losses, so in this situation, it's better to yield temporarily.

  The second row of people also nodded, it was clear that they had lost this round.

  There were two leaders, the first and second rows of soldiers, who also left the barracks. When Shi De-you led his men to rush over, he happened to meet the leader of the first row and the leader of the second row walking out of the barracks. Seeing this situation, he had no choice but to stop.

  "Hey, Shi De-you, what are you doing? This is a military station, are you trying to start a rebellion?" one of the soldiers said.

  "You!" Shi De You was furious.

  "Lei Jiaping, what do you want to do? Get back here!" the second row leader roared at Lei Jiaping. Lei Jiaping immediately lowered his head. Originally, he still wanted to rebel against the second row leader, but when they really faced each other, the courage that had been mustered up disappeared.

  "What are you still stunned for? Do you want to repeat the order again?" Suddenly, a loud roar came. It turned out that Wang Wei was standing behind them.

  "Deputy company commander, what's this?" Shi De You hesitated a little.

  "Didn't you hear what I said? Carry out Battalion Commander's orders!" Wang shouted sternly.

  "Yes! Brothers, take action!" Shi De-you saw this and had no choice but to grit his teeth and go up. Under his command, dozens of people in three rows suddenly rushed towards the first row leader and second row leader.

  "Shi De You, what do you want to do?" a loud voice shouted from the front row.

  "Even if you're the company commander, you don't have the authority to relieve us of our duties. To relieve us from duty, it must be approved by the battalion headquarters!" The second squad leader also shouted loudly.

  However, Shi De-you didn't care about the refutations of the two men. Since he had already boarded Wang Yu-ze's ship, he could only follow one path to the end. The three rows of people also followed Shi De-you in an attempt to capture the first and second row leaders.

  "Brothers, let's fight it out with these bastards! They're trying to kill us!" A row of men saw this and their faces changed greatly, shouting loudly. Originally, he still thought that admitting his mistake and apologizing would be enough for Wang Zifei to cover up the matter. Now it seems that things are not that simple.

  "Brothers, take action and let these turtle eggs know our strength!" The second row leader also shouted loudly. Suddenly, some people from the first and second rows responded to the commands of the first and second row leaders and launched a charge against the soldiers who were executing the orders in the third row, and a melee broke out.

  "Bang!" A crisp gunshot suddenly rang out. The two parties who were about to take action stopped in their tracks. Everyone turned around, only to see that Wang Yuze's handgun was still smoking.

  Wang Yuezhe walked towards everyone, and instantly, the soldiers involuntarily made way for a path.

  "Seize the two ringleaders, Zhang Yong and Zhang Er! Flog them forty times with the military rod, then hand them over to the garrison for punishment. As for the rest of you, if you want to follow in their footsteps, I'll show no mercy!" Wang Yuze bellowed.

  "Yes, sir!" Shi De You immediately obeyed. The several soldiers in the third row instantly seized and took down the first and second squad leaders. The two men fiercely resisted, but under the joint pressure of several soldiers, they were unable to break free. The people from the first and second squads were also intimidated and did not dare to take action.

  "Wang Long, this is a personal vendetta!" shouted the first and second squad leaders.

  But Wang Yuezhe turned a deaf ear to this, and Shi Defu took them away directly. After being beaten with forty military clubs, they were taken to the barracks.

  Wang Yuezhe established his own prestige in Sanlian through this!
