Girls und War

When the students saw the instructor lowering his posture so much, they all hesitated.

To be honest, these students don't really want to join the army, otherwise they wouldn't choose to work so hard to take the entrance exam.

They just hate the current pace of military school life.

This was different from their expectations - the feeling now was more like being in prison than being a lieutenant.

Just as the students were hesitating, Sister Dongliang asked again with a hint of confusion, "Actually, I'm even more curious. Why haven't such problems occurred with the non-commissioned officers? Could it be that the students there have a stronger tolerance?"

The officers looked at each other in silence.

Xia Shu and the others also looked as if it had nothing to do with them.

Sister Dongliang thought about it for a while, then suddenly said to Pigeon, "Team leader, go to your team and call a few students over. Just call any one, don't be picky."

The pigeon nodded in agreement and turned to look at the teachers.

Several instructors looked at each other and then turned their attention to the lop-eared cat with the lowest rank.

The lop-eared cat sighed and seemed to have accepted his fate, so he ran obediently to the student dormitory, found a few students and took them to the administrative building.

Not long after, the lop-eared cat returned to the meeting room with a few girls.

The girls seemed to have just come from the kitchen, still holding skewers in their hands.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the conference room was very serious, he quickly hid the skewers behind him and obediently greeted the instructor a few times.

Sister Dongliang didn't care whether they were eating or not. She simply waved her hand and said, "I called you here just to ask a few questions. Just answer truthfully, understand?"

Several girls quickly answered that they understood.

Sister Dongliang then asked, "Is your training tough? How are your instructors treating you?"

The girls exchanged glances, and the leading one replied, "Training... is a bit tiring. But it's okay. It's mainly because the instructors are so kind to us."

As he said this, he glanced at Xia Shu with his eyes.

Xia Shu thought to himself, I didn’t ask you to flatter me.

Sister Dongliang nodded after hearing this and asked, "Are there any of your students who can't stand the current training and want to go home?"

The girls looked confused and said no.

"Not a single one?" Sister Dongliang stared at them, "Tell the truth."

So one girl said hesitantly, "It seems... there's someone in our dorm who's always complaining about wanting to go home. But I think she's just talking."

"So, you think the current training volume can be increased?" Sister Dongliang said deliberately.

The girls all looked distressed upon hearing this and couldn't help but say, "It...it needs to be bigger..."

"Yes, it must be increased. So what are your opinions now?" Sister Dongliang asked calmly.

The girls looked at each other hesitantly, and finally said, "Well... that's fine. It will be added sooner or later anyway."

Sister Dongliang was a little surprised to hear them say this, so she asked, "Why, you don't have any opinions at all?"

"No, we've known about the intensity of the training for a long time. It's definitely not time for it to officially begin yet. Just look at their neighboring squadrons, third and fourth. Don't you agree?"

The leading girl said something, and the other girls nodded quickly.

Sister Dongliang thought for a moment and seemed to understand something. Then she said to the girls from the first and second squadrons, "Okay, it's okay. You can go back."

Seeing this, the girls started laughing and pushing each other, and swarmed out of the meeting room.

After watching the girls leave, Sister Dongliang looked at the officers and instructors with a meaningful look and said, "Did you see that? Is there anything you want to say?"

The officers lowered their heads, not knowing what to say.

The few old non-commissioned officers in the corner of the conference room showed a contented expression as if everything was under control.

721. A fierce operation like a tiger, but a look at the record of zero and five

The veteran non-commissioned officers were experienced and seemed to have anticipated that such problems would arise in the cadet team led by the officers.

But they didn't expect everything to happen so quickly.

The students' stress reaction came too quickly, as fast as retribution in this life.

It’s like I just entered a nightclub with my friends and my wife called me.

At first, they thought these new officers and instructors had some special way of dealing with the situation. But in the end, were they just making assumptions?

Sister Dongliang tapped the table with her fingers, looked at the non-commissioned officers who were sitting calmly, and then looked at the officers who were in a panic and at a loss.

Then he asked the students sitting at the conference table, "So, besides quitting the student team, is there no other solution?"

The girls exchanged glances, and the leader, seemingly receiving some kind of signal, said to Sister Dongliang, "Well, if we could replace our instructor with someone who understands us, we would accept that."

The officers' faces were all very grim. Sister Dongliang didn't say no directly, but asked, "What do you want to change to?"

"That's... Xia... Oh no, we can just give us the instructor of the 1st and 2nd squadrons." The girl almost let the cat out of the bag.

As soon as these words were spoken, several non-commissioned officers laughed.

The idea is good, but it's obviously unlikely to be implemented.

Let's not even talk about whether their replacement can fundamentally solve the existing problems of the cadet team. If the instructors on both sides switch sides, what will happen to the cadets of the first and second squadrons?

Do we expect that if the officers cannot lead their own squadrons well, they will be able to lead the non-commissioned officers' squadrons well?

If it really changes, won’t the students over there be furious?

So this statement can only be the assumption of children.

Hearing this, Sister Dongliang smiled and shook her head, saying, "That won't do."

As soon as the words came out, all the students showed disappointed expressions.

Immediately, a girl said angrily, "Then I want to go home."

The officers' faces were now extremely grim. Judging from the current situation, Sister Dongliang had completely concluded that their teaching skills were inferior to those of the non-commissioned officers.

This made the officers, who were ambitious at the beginning and ready to prove themselves through the new training, feel a huge disappointment.

Sister Dongliang then changed the subject and said to the students, "So your main problem is that you think the NCO instructors are better than the officer instructors, and you want them to teach you, right?"

The students all nodded.

"Then let's do this. I'll let the non-commissioned officers' group take the lead in rectifying the teaching work of the officer instructor group, and unify the lesson plans and teaching concepts of both sides into the non-commissioned officers' group. Then... the non-commissioned officers' group will be in charge of all new training work in the future. If you have any questions, you can report them to the instructors of the non-commissioned officers' group. Do you think this is okay?" Sister Dongliang gave another new solution.

As soon as these words were spoken, the officers felt ashamed, because this was equivalent to handing over the leadership and command power of the officers to the non-commissioned officers, which was tantamount to the rebellion of the lower ranks.

Although these NCOs held relatively high ranks, officers generally outranked enlisted personnel. This exception rarely occurred unless an officer's command displeased their superiors.

The current situation can be understood as Sister Dongliang feeling that the officer instructor group is no longer capable of leadership.

But the officers had no way to express their grievances because the cadets had come here to report them, proving that this was the fact.

Otherwise, people wouldn't have thought of asking the teachers on both sides to switch sides.

Xia Shu and other non-commissioned officers were also surprised when they heard Sister Dongliang make such a decision.

I originally thought that Sister Dongliang would ask them to help coordinate the military skills teaching of the 3rd and 4th Squadrons, but I didn't expect that she would directly transfer the command to them.

This means that from now on, it will not be the officers who come over and talk behind their backs, but they can go to the officers' group and talk behind their backs.

How does it feel? It's like a son-in-law who serves his wife footbath water every day at home, and suddenly hears that the family's 1 trillion inheritance has been transferred to his name, and even his snobbish and beautiful mother-in-law throws herself into his arms. How proud he is!

If you put it on a new media platform and write a silly little piece of writing, you can earn millions a month!

After hearing Sister Dongliang’s suggestions, the students still didn’t quite understand the intricacies involved.

So he asked frankly, "Does that mean our instructors will treat us as well as the instructors of the 1st and 2nd Squadrons?"

"Yes." Sister Dongliang nodded.

"That means if we feel the instructors are treating us badly, we can talk to Instructor Xia Shu and the others?"

"Yes."

"So, Instructor Xia Shu and the others will come to visit us from time to time? We don't have to go to the instructors' dormitory to stay there?"

"Uh... yes."

Every time Sister Dongliang said "yes," it was like rubbing salt into the officers' wounds. And with every question the cadets asked, their faces brightened.

"That's great!" After hearing Sister Dongliang's promise, the girls all cheered.

Xia Shu, on the other hand, was completely puzzled. How come just a few words were related to him again?

"Are you happy now? Now you won't clamor to go home, will you?" Sister Dongliang looked at the students with a doting expression again.

The students' faces flushed, as if they were sorry for disturbing their leader by running over. But their purpose had been achieved, and they were no longer as excited as they had been at the beginning.

So students are the most easily satisfied group of creatures.

As long as you give them a little bit of sweetness amidst the hardships, they will immediately change their attitude and start to remember the teacher's kindness. They are complete hostage syndrome patients.

The girls saw that the officers and instructors looked extremely unhappy. Out of consideration for their future training careers, they bowed to the officers and apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, instructors, we didn't mean to do this. It's mainly because we really can't accept this kind of training life..."

After hearing this, the teachers felt better and their expressions were not so ugly anymore.

Then the students became excited again, and seemed eager to pass the news to the students in other teams.

Seeing this, Sister Dongliang waved her hand and signaled that they could go.

So all the students jumped and ran out of the administration building, without any trace of their previous bitter and resentful look.

However, after the students left the conference room, the atmosphere inside was no longer as comfortable as before.

Sister Dongliang tilted her head and looked at the group of officers and instructors. She said coldly, "You always boast to me about how much better you are than the NCOs, and how well you can do if you're given the job. But what's the result? What's the situation now? Explain it to me."

Upon hearing this, all the officers lowered their heads and were unable to utter a word.

722. Two-Level Reversal

Seeing that the officers were too quiet to say a word, Sister Dongliang turned to Pigeon and said, "Pigeon, as the instructor team leader, you will be fully responsible for the training arrangements for both instructor teams from now on. Is that okay?"

The pigeon nodded, indicating that there was no problem.

Then Sister Dongliang looked at the officers and said, "There are still training sessions scheduled for Groups Three and Four. From now on, all your plans must be signed by the instructor group leader. You won't need my signature then; just Pigeon's will be enough."

Although the officers were very unwilling, they still accepted the order given by Sister Dongliang.

Seeing that the situation had been resolved, Sister Dongliang announced the end of the meeting and let them go back to work.

The officers came out of the conference room first, so they walked in front, while the non-commissioned officers came out later, so they walked in the back.

Seeing the poor officer in front of them looking dejected and frowning, Xia Shu and the others followed behind without even daring to make a sound, fearing that the other party would vent his anger on them.

Well, how should I put it?

Although this matter really had nothing to do with Xia Shu and the others, it was all because the officers themselves did not do their job well.

However, the hatred of menopausal women towards young and beautiful underage girls is also groundless and meaningless, right?

If everything in the world could be explained by reason, then Makoto wouldn't have his head chopped off by the world.

Xia Shu walked with several instructors from the same group, chatting in low voices about random things.

The lop-eared cat suddenly thought of something and turned to the pigeon and asked, "Team leader, why is Sister Dongliang called Sister Dongliang? Is there any explanation?"

Xia Shu was also very interested in this, so he tilted his head and opened his ears.

Pigeon looked at the lop-eared cat, thought for a moment, and then said, "The name Sister Dongliang seems to have come from the Officer Academy. The leading officers there always said she was pedantic and slow, and that she was always thinking twice before making decisions, like a big log. But they felt that "log" didn't sound nice, so they changed the name to 'Dongliang'. So we started calling her Sister Dongliang here."

"Oh, so that's how it is." The lop-eared cat nodded, indicating that he understood.

At this moment, the officers in front seemed to have discussed something and made a decision. A captain came over and politely said to Pigeon, "Team Leader, should we go and revise the old lesson plan first?"

Pigeon nodded and said to her, "I'll go with you guys to look at the lesson plan now."

Then he turned to Xia Shu and the others and said, "Then you guys go ahead. I'll be in charge of the training of the 3rd and 4th Squadrons for the time being. You guys can handle yourselves. Is that okay?"

Xia Shu and the others nodded and said it was no problem.

Pigeon added, "Then let An Nan take charge of your work for the time being. If you have any questions, come to me in the officer's office."

As he said this, he walked towards the officer's office surrounded by a group of officers.
