Chapter 5 – Talent
“Go and bring me the information on those ones, that Old w.a.n.g and Ye Tianming.”
Liu Bing turned around and walked out, then returned, not long later with a file, which he handed to Zhao Weidong.
Zhao Weidong received it, and opened the folder.
w.a.n.g Jianbo, Male, born in 1970, 32 years old. Enlisted in 1987, middle-school education level, served in Nanjing Military Region Special Forces unit, active duty officer, rank of major, ancestry from Zhuozhou city, Hebei province.
Ye Tianming, Male, born in 1982, 20 years old. Enlisted in 1998, high-school education level, served in Northeast Field Army Special Task Force, active NCO, ancestry from Shenyang city, Liaoning province.
Zhao Weidong saw that there was more information below about Ye Tianming, and continued reading. This person had practiced martial arts since a young age, and had an extremely strong sense of justice. Because he couldn’t bear to watch superiors bullying the soldiers, he has beaten up those superiors many times. He would spend 200 days out of a year in solitary confinement. He would sneak out without anyone knowing every single time, when he would blatantly return to the dormitory to sleep. It’s useless, no matter what you do, he would enter in the morning, and come out at night. Everyone wants to know how he came out, but no matter who asked, he wouldn’t say anything about it. It had also become a mystery that everyone in the field army wants to know. Aside from the soldiers, from corps commanders to the platoon and battalion commanders, they all have headaches due to him. Since he makes all the little mistakes and none of the major ones, you could do nothing about him. Seeing that he goes unpunished and always doing random things in the military region without anyone daring to control him. He became a unique kind of person in the military region. Before enlisting, he acted as a samaritan and killed an attempted rapist, and thus was sentenced to 10 months in prison due to manslaughter. After getting released, he joined the underworld, and due to being merciless and not afraid of dying, he got his own territory in Shenyang very quickly. Later on, due to his family being scared of something happening to him, they used their contacts to send him into the army. Since his physical const.i.tution was quite good, and he had practiced martial arts from a young age, he would be the champion in the military martial contest every year. The military region originally wanted to focus on grooming him, but he was disappointing. And because he caused trouble all the time, in the end the chief of the military region sent him to the Blue Sword Special Forces without any other choice. At the end was something noted with high importance – This person is extremely dangerous.
It looks like the person who wrote this was very familiar with Zhao Weidong, or else he wouldn’t write this introduction.
Zhao Weidong laughed loudly after reading to this point, and said, “He’s a talent, this person is definitely a talent, I’m definitely accepting him.”
Liu Bing and w.a.n.g Feng couldn’t help but chuckle, it was clear that they had seen these information ages ago, and had a deep impression of Ye Tianming.
“This rain is great, let’s go, we still have to train them well, we can’t let them be too relaxed.”
w.a.n.g Feng said hesitantly, “Captain, they just arrived today, the training in the afternoon was so much already, and now it’s raining so heavily outside, would they be alright?”
Zhao Weidong said, “As a soldier, they have to get used to all sorts of environments, any type of weather. If they can’t, then they have no right to be here, we want elites, not young master troops. If this is a war, would the war stop just because it’s raining?”
At this moment, the sound of someone reporting in interrupted their conversation, “Come in!” Zhao Weidong shouted.
The person who entered is a special task force troop of the general, seeing Zhao Weidong, he said, “Commander, the general asked you to come over.”
Zhao Weidong waved his had and said, “Go back first, we’ll be here shortly.”
In the general’s office, “General, did you need us for something?”
Qin Dahai raised his head and said, “Yeah, I saw the training information you sent back together, I didn’t think so many people would be eliminated on the first day, I’m a bit worried whether our Blue Sword can be as glorious as it was during your time.”
Zhao Weidong smiled, and handed the information in his hand to the general, then said, “Look at this information first.”
Qin Dahai opened the folder in confusion, then suddenly smiled. He said, “This brat called Ye Tianming is not bad, he’s a good seed and has a good foundation. I hope you can groom him into the second you, in order to extend the invincible legend of our Blue Sowrd. In recent years, the opposing forces outside of the country have started moving again, if Blue Sword doesn’t have you guys, I really wouldn’t know what to do. Now that you have found a successor, then I don’t have to worry anymore.
You guys aren’t young anymore, and have given up so much for the country, it’s time to rest. When he grows up, you guys should go back, get married, have a kid, and live a normal person’s life.”
Zhao Weidong smiled wryly, “General, do you think we can still get used to the life outside? The peaceful life outside is no longer suitable for us, we are natural-born killing machines, who would want to live with people like us.”
Qin Dahai fell into silence after hearing Zhao Weidong’s words.
Zhao Weidong saw Qin Dahai’s expression and said, “This isn’t anything, it is our fate.”
After saying that, he chuckled, and continued to say proudly, “I will train this brat into an all rounded warrior, and let him become our enemies’ nightmare.”
The soldiers that have gotten tired throughout the day fell asleep the moment they got on the bed, every dormitory was filled with snores. No matter how loud the thunder outside was, they weren’t woken up.
However, one person was an exception, that is Ye Tianming, he was sitting on the bed wearing tidy clothes, and looking outside with his wide eye open. He muttered, “f.u.c.k, it’s raining so hard, I don’t believe that they would let us sleep peacefully.
Everyone couldn’t believe that after a day of intense training, he was still so energised, his eyes were like lightbulbs, and were looking around randomly.
