Chapter 378: Cross-dressing, The Confrontation Begins

“Very well, come on, eat more; this is your lunch.”

“I believe you’d rather have a few more pieces of chicken than fill up on snake meat, rat meat, or bugs, right?”

As Wang Ye cut a piece of chicken and put it into his mouth, he smiled.

Wang Ye didn’t smile.

Although the raw chicken went into his mouth, it was transferred to his personal space after he closed his mouth.

But that meat had indeed come into contact with his tongue.

The taste was quite something.

The gaminess made Wang Ye feel a bit nauseous.

“Haha, Wang Ye, let me give you some advice, try some snake meat; the snakes we train are artificially bred, no parasites to worry about, and they’re skinned and cleaned. It tastes better raw than chicken!”

Behind them, the class leader, Ge Hui, burst into laughter.

For seasoned soldiers, scenes like this were considered a reward.

Every year when new recruits joined, they loved to see this kind of excitement.

Watching the newbies’ constipated expressions, and seeing them lying in misery after eating, they often found it particularly enjoyable.

After all, the rain they had endured back in the day was now being passed down, and there were always people to endure it!

This kind of psychological sensation, although a bit unusual, is a normal reaction for a person.

However, to their disappointment, Wang Ye didn’t vomit.

Of course, Wang Ye hadn’t eaten anything in the first place, so why would he vomit?

In fact, if he were to open his mouth right now and show them his teeth, they could even see bits of sausage stuck in the gaps between his teeth.

Wang Ye chewed and swallowed, but what he was actually eating were those small sausages he had bought and stored in his training space.

He had thought about how to handle this discreet eating situation in advance. After all, he couldn’t just magically transport large pieces of food directly into his mouth; his mouth wasn’t that big.

So Wang Ye had purchased some small sausages, removed the outer packaging, and thrown them into his training space. The purpose was to have them readily available to eat when needed.

Now, his foresight was paying off.

Using the sausages not only helped mask the taste of the raw chicken he had pretended to eat but also allowed him to appear to be chewing and swallowing without actually eating anything.

“Good!” Wang Ye ignored the few remaining guys behind him, nodded to the platoon leader, and continued cutting the chicken with his knife.

After eating a few more pieces, Wang Ye moved on to the next challenge.

Several small snakes were wriggling inside a cage.

The platoon leader stood to the side, grinning, and said, “Just reach in and grab one, one snake is enough, but of course, you can grab more if you like. However, 1 recommend grabbing the green one!”

“Why?” Wang Ye couldn’t help but ask.

“Because green brings good vibes! Eating something of this color will make you feel happier!” It wasn’t the platoon leader who said this, but Wang Gang who spoke up from behind.

The task of catching bugs was assigned to the younger soldiers in the squad, while the rest continued to watch Wang Ye’s lively performance.

Wang Ye looked back at them with a somewhat speechless expression.

But they ignored Wang Ye’s expression and continued to have a good time.

In fact, at this moment, the platoon leader beside him also chuckled and said, “That’s right, green brings good vibes, and it’s more comfortable to eat!”

Feeling somewhat helpless, Wang Ye looked back at the cage in front of him.

At this moment, his hand clenched and then relaxed, and he hesitated to reach in.

Damn it, even though he wasn’t afraid of snakes anymore, there were still several snakes together inside that cage.

If he reached in to grab one, would he get bitten by a snake?

“Go ahead, don’t tell me you’re scared!” the platoon leader spoke up again.

“I am really scared!” Wang Ye replied directly, looking at him.

He wasn’t a god; he could recognize the snakes inside.

There were a total of five snakes, three non-venomous and two venomous.

What if he reached in and got bitten by a venomous snake?

“Haha! There’s no way around it, actually, you’ve only been here for a short time and haven’t experienced a real hellish training week yet. When you encounter and go through it, you’ll know what it means to fear nothing!” the platoon leader laughed heartily.

In truth, he had a lot of patience with Wang Ye, and his teaching style was completely different from how he treated others.

In previous years during the new recruits’ training for this project, there was no such smile.

They maintained a serious demeanor throughout, giving orders in a commanding tone, and pushing them forcefully.

But with Wang Ye, things were different. After all, Wang Ye’s arrival was special, and he had the same insignia as the platoon leader, so he had been lighthearted throughout the training.

Wang Ye looked at him and then turned to glance at the group of people behind him who were still smiling.

With determination, Wang Ye slowly raised his hand and reached it towards the cage.

After all, they wouldn’t let him die in the military, so if he got bitten, he’d deal with it!

Wang Ye had mentally prepared himself for getting bitten, and in reality, these snakes were not holding back.

As soon as Wang Ye reached in, the next second, he couldn’t help but exclaim, quickly withdrawing his hand.

Because he had indeed been bitten.

In that moment, Wang Ye’s heart was pounding intensely.

It was the most terrifying moment since he joined the military.

However, he quickly realized something.

The hand he had inserted had saliva on it, but there were no bite marks, let alone any wounds.

His heart was still racing, but at that moment, Wang Ye couldn’t help but turn to look at the platoon leader beside him.

“Haha!”

The platoon leader burst into laughter.

“No teeth?” Wang Ye asked in confusion.

“Yes! They’ve all been defanged!” the platoon leader admitted with a suppressed laugh.

“Damn! You scared me!” Wang Ye’s words were not a pretense; he had indeed been frightened a moment ago.

But now, Wang Ye immediately raised his hand and reached in again.

Several small snakes, still without venomous fangs, what difference did they have from eels?

Soon, Wang Ye pulled out the green snake.

ii

In the original training outline, we were supposed to drink snake blood, but now we need to maintain our physical condition, so just eating the meat is fine!” The platoon leader’s words made Wang Ye inwardly relieved.

He was glad he didn’t have to drink snake blood. He hadn’t even tested whether liquids could be transferred to his personal space. And even if he could transfer it, what difference would it make once it was in his mouth?

Without saying a word, Wang Ye began to prepare the snake.

Later, he tried eating mice and the insects brought back by Luo Yong and the others one by one…

Of course, eating these wasn’t the end of survival training.

In fact, in wilderness survival, eating raw meat was usually a last resort.

In the subsequent training, An Ping and others also took Wang Ye into the jungle to identify various plants.

In real combat situations, plants were the top priority.

Wild fruits and plant roots and stems were what people usually ate for survival.

As for eating various raw meats, that only happened in dire circumstances.

One task after another, Wang Ye didn’t get a break.

Over the next four days, An Ping and the others spared no effort in guiding Wang Ye through a wide range of training that reconnaissance soldiers needed, including setting up observation posts, radar surveillance, psychology, motorcycle and truck driving, and even makeup.

With his exceptional memory, Wang Ye managed to learn many of these skills quite well after just one pass, and even for those he didn’t fully master, he had a good grasp of the basics.

However, while learning these skills, Wang Ye found himself deeply immersed in some of them.

Some of them were difficult for him to accept, like eating raw snake and mouse meat.

And then there was the makeup lesson he had in the afternoon.

In his two lifetimes, he had never worn women’s clothing before, but now, as a soldier in the military surrounded by male hormones, he found himself wearing a skirt with long flowing hair…

Thinking back on it now, Wang Ye felt a bit awkward.

Fortunately, he was tall enough that they didn’t make him wear high heels; otherwise, he would have felt even more uncomfortable.

“Hey, Wang Ye, are you asleep?”

The dormitory lights had already been turned off, but suddenly, a voice came from the neighboring bunk.

Wang Ye didn’t respond.

He pretended to be asleep.

After all, they had just been discussing his cross-dressing, and if someone was starting a conversation now, it probably wasn’t for a pleasant reason.

“Hehe, our Lieutenant Wang, don’t be embarrassed. Honestly, Lieutenant Wang, you could make a living just with your looks! 1, Qiu Shuang, consider myself quite handsome, but compared to you, I feel inferior, especially with your cross-dressing today. Oh my, my heart rate even sped up at the time!”

“Come on, let’s go find a place to spar with knives. If your heart rate is increasing, I’ll help you calm down, I guarantee that your heart rate will slow down later!”

Wang Ye sat up abruptly.

That bastard, he couldn’t stand it anymore.

“Pfft-!”

“Haha!

■I

Laughter erupted in the dormitory.

Qiu Shuang spoke again, “Alright, alright, I can’t compete with you!”

“Okay, stop teasing Wang Ye. You guys talk as if you’ve never done anything like that before. Everyone, get some rest!” An Ping was also laughing, but the lights had been turned off, and he had to maintain discipline in the platoon.

However, his words were of no use. Wang Gang was still chuckling.

But despite the platoon leader’s words, in the next moment…

“Beep- Beep beep…”

“Damn!”

“Get up quickly!”

In an instant, the laughter on everyone’s faces in the dormitory vanished, and Wang Ye’s previous frustration was no exception.

When the emergency assembly signal sounded, there was no time to think about those previous conversations.

“Full gear, downstairs!”

Downstairs, Jiang Nan’s voice echoed.

The response was the sound of footsteps and some clanking objects inside the dormitory.

In less than three minutes, the entire platoon had gathered downstairs.

“Comrades, do you know why I’m calling you?” Jiang Nan asked, and no one said a word, but the eyes of each reconnaissance soldier were wide open, filled with anticipation.

Jiang Nan didn’t keep them in suspense and shouted loudly, “The day you’ve all been waiting for has arrived.”

As he looked around at everyone, he shouted again, “Following orders from higher-ups, we will start a confrontation with the Special Forces tonight. You have five minutes to change into exercise gear and grab your preferred weapons!”

“Hurry…”

At that moment, the three platoon leaders immediately gathered their respective soldiers.

“Damn, it’s finally here. This time, I’m definitely going to give it my all!” Qiu Shuang’s excited voice could be heard from Wang Ye’s side.

And his words and demeanor represented the entire reconnaissance platoon at that moment.

After Jiang Nan made the announcement, in reality, everyone had been talking about it for the past few days.

Now that the moment had finally arrived, how could they not be excited?

Everyone changed into their exercise gear, and Wang Ye once again grabbed his Type 05 rifle.

At the same time, he had something else with him.

A Type 89 grenade launcher.

Well… it was similar to the grenade launchers used by the Japanese in WWII.

They wouldn’t be using tanks against the Special Forces, so rocket launchers wouldn’t be very effective, and mortars were heavier compared to this.

But Wang Ye wanted some artillery firepower.

So after playing with this thing during a previous training exercise, he couldn’t help but become fond of it.

It was lightweight, had a firing range of up to 800 meters, and most importantly, it had a 50mm caliber.

Not all Special Forces soldiers were sharpshooters; didn’t they like to use sniper rifles on TV?

He was going to use this 50mm caliber weapon against them.

Even though he didn’t have a scope for it, he did have a targeting reticle.

Moreover, this weapon used parabolic trajectory, so he could fire from behind cover as well..
