Chapter 129: Class Monitor, My Pants Are Missing!

Ye Sanshi came back swiftly, and after everyone settled down, he reentered the room a few seconds later. He glanced at everyone, who was diligently memorizing the questions, and nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he turned his attention to Wang Ye and said, “Second Company is facing some trouble. But don’t worry, the company commander has assigned Fourth Company to monitor their physical fitness.”

The mention of this news silenced the dormitory, and the recruits of the fifth squad felt their hearts racing in confusion.

Why hadn’t Wang Ye mentioned this earlier?

However, under Ye Sanshi’s watchful gaze, no one dared to ask. They had to continue focusing on memorizing the questions.

During the afternoon training break, they finally found an opportunity to ask Wang Ye about the situation, and he didn’t keep it a secret.

“I’ve heard being a tank soldier is pretty cool! I mean, just think about it – when other guys are trying to impress girls with their car pictures, I’ll be showing off myself driving a tank. Who could resist someone riding on the barrel of a tank?” Qin Li said dreamily.

Ye Sanshi almost had his hat knocked off, taken aback by Qin Li’s enthusiasm. “What’s so great about tanks? If you want to go, be my guest. But personally, 1 don’t see the appeal. We have armored combat vehicles too, and they come equipped with anti-tank missiles. If we encounter tanks, we can take them down just fine!”

With a stubborn expression, Ye Sanshi playfully teased the group of new recruits who were still naive about the reality of military life.

Indeed, for the recruits, they did not know much about the current military situation. Although they were already soldiers, they were new soldiers who had never touched a gun.

How could they know the difference in detail?

Even Zhang Ping’an directly asked, “What is an armored combat vehicle?” This kind of simpleton question.

Of course, no one laughed at him.

Because at least half of the people in class five didn’t know about this.

In this era, the Internet was not very popular. Moreover, before everyone joined the army, they did not have the time or leisure to understand this.

“Um… You can think of it as a light tank. Anyway, it looks like our cannons are a little smaller. However, one armored vehicle can hold a squad, while the other party’s tank can only hold three people, so it’s not suitable for us.”

Ye Sanshi avoided the main point and explained. Then, he pulled a long face and said, “Alright, you guys are still far away from this. Some of you might go to Tank Company, and some of you might go to other companies, but that’s not the most important thing right now. Since you’re not tired, let’s continue practicing.”

“All!”

Gu Yingnan screamed, but after being glared at by Ye Sanshi, he immediately shut up.

Very well. Everyone lay down, crawled forward, and continued practicing.

It was nighttime. After the lights were turned off, the three loo-point training sessions had ended. The moment Ye Sanshi gave the order to disband, many recruits rushed to their beds, exhausted from the intense physical training over the past two days.

Wang Ye’s physical fitness was already at 1.65, but he still felt overwhelmed after the day’s training. Hugging the blanket, he fell asleep almost instantly.

In the dormitory, others were snoring, but their deep sleep was undisturbed even by the snoring hooligans.

However, amidst the peaceful slumber, Wang Ye suddenly heard a whistle.

“Shh!”

“Shh! Shh! Shh! Emergency assembly!”

“Fuck!” Wang Ye’s eyes shot open, and he immediately sat up, instantly alert.

“Fuck! Quick, get up, get up!” Ye Sanshi’s reaction was even more dramatic than Wang Ye’s, suggesting that he might not have been aware of the emergency gathering either.

Though, it was possible he was pretending.

But Wang Ye wasn’t concerned about that at the moment; he had to act fast.

He threw off the blanket, got off the bed, and dressed swiftly. His movements were seamless.

Once ready, Wang Ye shook the bed to wake up Qin Li, who was still sleeping soundly on the upper bunk, oblivious to the commotion.

“Quick, quickly get up and assemble!”

Ye Sanshi was doing the same, not even bothering to put on his clothes. He immediately got out of bed and started pushing people one by one.

“All?”

“Class monitor… What’s wrong?”

During this period, nothing had happened at night, and they didn’t even have to stand guard. They were used to sleeping until Ye Sanshi called them to fold their blankets the next day.

But now…

“Emergency assembly, quickly get up and pack!”

Ye Sanshi shouted in a low voice.

“Fuck!”

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”

The dormitory instantly descended into chaos.

Some on the upper bunks threw their blankets and got off the beds, while others on the lower bunks lifted their blankets and rolled down.

Everyone was jolted awake from their sleepiness.

“All, where are my clothes…”

“I can’t find my backpack!”

“Don’t step on my blanket!”

Panic spread like wildfire through Class 5’s dormitory.

And it wasn’t just their dormitory; the entire recruit dormitory was in the same chaotic state.

For new recruits, the first day’s emergency assembly during training didn’t count. This was the first official time they were being called for an emergency assembly.

During their training period, whenever Ye Sanshi had some free time, he taught everyone how to pack their bags and had practiced twice what they should do during an emergency gathering. However, those practice sessions usually took place during lunch breaks or after 7:30 pm when the lights were still on.

But this time, it was the middle of the night, and the lights were off.

The only light came from the street lamps outside, faintly illuminating the dormitory.

But it was far from enough.

Moreover, this emergency gathering was entirely unexpected.

As panic spread among the recruits, they made all sorts of mistakes they wouldn’t have made under normal circumstances.

For instance, some recalled Ye Sanshi’s instructions to gather during an emergency. So, after putting on their clothes, they threw their blankets under the bed to pack their bags, thinking that using the limited space on the bed was a waste of time.

But in the panic, some forgot to wear their clothes and tossed their blankets along with their clothes on the ground.

Consequently, they couldn’t find their clothes amidst the mess.

Others, in their hurried state, got up and kicked around, losing their shoes in the process.

“Fuck, my shoes are gone!”

“Where are my pants, where are my pants…”

In the midst of the chaos, Wang Ye no longer paid attention to others. He quickly put on his clothes and swiftly packed his backpack using the three horizontal and two vertical packing method taught by Ye Sanshi.

“Stay calm. Pack your backpack first, then sort out your satchel!”

While Wang Ye was getting his equipment, he accidentally bumped into Gu Yingnan. After steadying himself, he told him to focus.

With that, he hurried to where his cup and toothbrush were kept.

The first day of training was different; they only needed to put on their clothes and gather downstairs. But now, after almost forty days in the army, an emergency assembly required them to follow specific requirements.

Wang Ye put on his clothes, grabbed his bag, cup, toothbrush, toothpaste, towel, and a water bottle filled with water.

Thankfully, Class Five had the habit of filling their water bottles before going to bed, so he could grab it quickly.

“Quick, quick, quick… We have to gather downstairs in five minutes!” Ye Sanshi reminded everyone as he kept himself busy.

His words added to the panic among the recruits.

But Ye Sanshi didn’t have the time or patience to calm them down right now.

“Don’t panic, just follow what I’ve taught you!”

“Class monitor, my pants are missing!”

As soon as he finished speaking, someone cried out.
