It turned into teasing in the end, “Nineteen years old, though her age is a bit young, but you’re only six years older than her. There’s finally a female soldier in our unit; you should really consider it.”
Faced with this comrade’s teasing and a sliver of seriousness that wasn’t detectable, Li Jinnian tossed him a gaze without any warmth; without needing to speak, Big Shark shut his mouth.
The Devil King didn’t like talking about these topics.
Alright, I won’t say it if he doesn’t like it; however, does he not like this topic? Or does he not like Ye Jian?
He doesn’t like Ye Jian? Impossible!
Up till today, Ye Jian was the most excellent and also the most… cough, most beautiful female soldier they had ever seen. Look, look! More than a month’s training didn’t bake her skin into charcoal; all that happened was her skin flaking off from sunburn… There’s still some redness on her skin, a redness that persisted after sunburn.
Taking a look at Li Jinnian, who had walked and stood beside her, his torso was tall and slender. Though his personality is a bit aloof, that handsome face of his, every time they attended the Navy Assembly, the female Communications soldiers all ogled at him… at least that meant he’s attractive. Slightly ignoring his coldness that made it hard for people to approach, if he stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Ye Jian, no matter how Big Shark looked at them, the more he felt they were a good match.
Li Jinnian totally didn’t put Big Shark’s words on his heart. His gaze was so stern that it was suddenly giving Ye Jian tons of psychological stress, “When frogmen are deployed in missions, they must overcome various obstacles and pipelines and also need to avoid being detected by various detection instruments. You already have a certain level of foundation, your overall reaction wasn’t bad, but there’s still plenty of room for improvement.”
There wasn’t a criticism in his words; they even carried a hint of praise… now Ye Jian’s expression became even more taut, she had a feeling the Devil King’s scariness was waiting for her.
“While fighting underwater, unfamiliar waters and complex combat strategies would bring inconvenience to you, at the same time, it will increase your psychological stress. Ye Jian, what is the largest difference between the strategies of frogmen and Ground Forces? Do you still need me to repeat that to you?”
As his voice gradually became colder, Ye Jian knew… the main point was coming!
With a straightened back, Ye Jian raised her head and puffed out her chest, and replied with a straight face: “Reporting, sir, there’s no need!”
“Since you do know, then why did you make such a rudimentary mistake? Perish together? Did I ever teach that in our daily training?” Li Jinnian was a man with very stable emotions, with an indifferent personality; it doesn’t matter how big a problem was, he also very rarely gets emotional.
It’s the same when dealing with Ye Jian; even though he was angry at the time, but he had been calm for some time now. From his frosty tone, it could be heard that although he was criticizing Ye Jian, he wasn’t emotional.
“You clearly had enough time to draw your gun and fire underwater, but you didn’t grasp your opportunity and resulted in my successful counterattack. You knew you didn’t have a chance to win, so you want to ‘perish together’ with me. Ye Jian, if you’re in a real underwater battle, are you still going to choose the dumbest way?”
“Underwater firearms have the advantage of the quick speed and high lethality, if you fired at your enemy at close range, even if they had supernatural abilities, it’d be difficult for them to dodge effectively. Ye Jian, during operations, as long as we have an opportunity to pull out our guns and shoot, guns are always prioritized, survival knives come second!”
He didn’t criticize Ye Jian. Instead, he listed one thing after the next, letting Ye Jian understand where she was wrong.
Big Eel and Big Shark had already reached the front of the boat; they left the space to Li Jinnian to prevent Ye Jian from feeling embarrassed.
From the combat training reef to the harbor needed two hours, Li Jinnian didn’t criticize Ye Jian for too long. He knew in his heart that this female soldier grasped things quickly. After pointing out her mistakes in time, there’s no need for him to worry about it too much because she will correct herself automatically.
