Chapter 299: Soldiers on the News

“Medic, medic!”
When the chief of staff saw Wang Ye’s shoulder, he turned around and shouted.
There was a medic in the fourth company, and the medic had been following them to fight the flood.
He was currently bandaging Zheng Ke’s wound.
When he fell straight down just now, he also scraped himself.
It was unknown whether he had hit a rock or something else, but there was also a red and swollen area on his back, which was also a wound.
It wasn’t serious but it was a flesh wound, and after being exposed to the flood’s dirty water. He definitely had to clean the wound with a sterile swab, then help bandage it and rub away the blood clot.
In a daze, they did not hear the Chief of Staff’s voice.
This was because Wang Ye was currently 70 to 80 metres away from the collapsed area. There was still a torrential flood on the side, and the sound of water flowing could be heard. Even if one didn’t shout loudly from more than ten metres away, they might not be able to hear the sound, let alone now that they were so far away.
“It’s fine, Chief. It’s just a small flesh wound. I’ll be fine later!”
Wang Ye wanted to get someone to call the chief of staff of the medics.
“Come, let me help you up first.”
Wen Bin, check if you’re injured!”Wu Jian Feng spoke at this moment.
After he finished speaking, the female reporter who had been following the chief of staff finally couldn’t hold it in anymore.
“Chief of Staff, we would like to interview your soldier. Is that okay?”
“Yes, yes, of course!”The chief of staff immediately turned his head and said with a smile.
An interview, it’s a good thing!
Did you hear that? They are interviewing our soldiers.
At this moment, he glanced at the local leader who had followed him.
This was the time to get some limelight.
However, when he looked at Wang Ye again, he couldn’t help but feel a little regretful.
Looking at Wu Jian Feng, who was supporting Wang Ye, he had the urge to lack him into the river.
Bastard, a carton of milk gave him a huge advantage.
Otherwise, if Wang Ye was now his direct subordinate, he would be able to laugh even more happily.
“Hello, your name is Wang Ye? I’m Wei Zi Yu, this is our second time meeting?”
The female reporter walked up to Wang Ye with a smile.
Actually, she was quite good-looking. Now that she smiled, she looked even more beautiful.
Thinking about it, it made sense. She was a provincial reporter. How could she leave the country if she was not good-looking?
Looking at the microphone stuffed in front of him, Wang Ye’s expression was a little awkward, especially when he saw that the camera beside him was also facing him. Wang Ye hurriedly reached out and pulled up his clothes.
“Um, can I be censored later?”Wang Ye looked at her and said.
Wang Ye knew that it was basically impossible for them not to broadcast what had happened today.
Even if he wanted to, Wu Jian Feng and the Chief of Staff would definitely not agree.
“Are you still afraid that your parents will worry?”Wei Zi Yu smiled faintly.
While the two of them were talking, Wu Jian Feng maintained a serious expression beside Wang Ye.
When Wang Ye saw this, he really wanted to kick him. Why was he pretending? Didn’t he know to help say something?
“Yes!”
Wang Ye nodded.
Of course, if his mother found out that he had saved someone in the flood, she would definitely jump up.
Perhaps after he served for two years, he would be forced to retire.
After all, she only had one son in her family. Although it was good for her to make contributions, from a mother’s point of view, it was too scary for her son to risk his life like this.
“Alright, I’ll talk to the station later!”
She didn’t agree directly, so Wang Ye felt a little helpless,”Can’t you give me a definite answer?”
“Alright, we’ll pay attention to this. I can promise you that 1 won’t take a headshot.”
“Alright!” “Then ask whatever you want to ask!””
“Alright, alright, stop pacing around. I’m doing something.”
In the office of Wang Jian Jun’s company in his hometown, Wang Jian Jun looked helplessly at his wife walking back and forth in front of him.
However, it would have been fine if he hadn’t opened his mouth.
Your son has made a contribution and you were so smug. Now, your son might be rolling in the mud and even in danger. Aren’t you worried at all?”
“Hey, hey, it’s not that serious.”
Wang Jian Jun shouted,” Look at the soldiers on TV. They’re all wearing life jackets, and they’re just moving the people in the city.”
His son had gone to the army. He was a man. At this time, he shouldered his responsibilities. This was what a man had to do.
Not to mention him, if I were a soldier and encountered such a thing, 1 would definitely do the same.”Wang Jian Jun said seriously.
Of course, Wang Ye’s mother didn’t agree with him,”What are you bragging about? Even if you were a soldier, would you still fight against floods. Look at your stomach now. Are you going to lie in the water like a life buoy?”
“What!” Wang Jian Jun smiled helplessly.
Immediately, Wang Ye’s mother couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
However, she immediately restrained her smile.
Walking to the back of the desk, he rubbed Wang Jian Jun’s temples and said,””Alright, 1 know you’re getting a headache because of me, but it’s raining everywhere now, especially in Xi Guang. You’ve seen the news. It’s said that the amount of rain in a day is equivalent to three years in the Northwest.
Xi Guang was currently suffering from all kinds of internal and external floods.
How can 1 not be worried when my son is a soldier in Xi Guang?”
“Alright, alright, 1 know you’re worried!”Wang Jian Jun enjoyed his wife’s massage, but he continued to speak,””But it’s useless to worry. There’s no such thing as worrying for a soldier.
Don’t worry, it’s not that easy to get into trouble during the flood. Their son and the others have also taken good care of their safety measures.
Moreover, your son is actually just a soldier. He’s a new recruit who just left the company this year. To be realistic, if there’s really anything dangerous, the army won’t let the new recruits go. You can rest assured!”
Wang Jian Jun tried his best to persuade his wife. He had no idea that his son had just climbed out of the flood.
She didn’t expect that her son was being interviewed by a television station…
“How is it? How does it feel to be a big star on TV?”
Beside Wang Ye, Li Bing, who was eating his self-heating military rations, also leaned against the flood control wall and turned his head to ask with a smile.
The interview was already over. Even the hole that had collapsed had been filled up, and the flood that had come out had been completely blocked.
By now, the reporters had already left.
The Fourth Company didn’t take down the flood wall either.
After checking the dam, everyone leaned against the flood wall or found a few bags on the ground to sit down and eat breakfast.
In fact, everyone was to eat military rations.
The cooks had been fighting with everyone, so they didn’t have time to prepare food.
The commoners said that they wanted to get some for everyone, but Wu Jian Feng firmly refused. He also said that they had food, so now everyone only had some Herbal Tea Eggs and other things that they could not refuse.
“What big star? I’m not a celebrity. I’ve asked him to censor my face!”Wang Ye said with a smile as he ate.
The wounds on his body were also washed with a sterile solution and bandaged.
“Hey, why did you want to be censored? It’s such a good opportunity to be famous. If only they interviewed me. I would have shown off my muscles to the entire country!”On the other side, a soldier from the fourth class laughed.
Now, everyone was actually gathering around Wang Ye, wanting to hear what Wang Ye thought after he went on TV.
“Haha, come on, you still want to show off your muscles? It’s not like the camera didn’t take pictures of us just now. Why didn’t you say anything and only focused on carrying the sandbags?”There were people at the side trying to sabotage him.
“Haha, what do you know? Isn’t carrying a sandbag just showing off my muscles?”
On the riverbank, now that all the villagers had left and only the soldiers were here, it was still very easy for everyone to chat.
Of course, it was mainly because the Chief of Staff and Wu Jian Feng were not around.
The collapsed area had been blocked and all the work was done. Wu Jian Feng was now reporting to the Chief of Staff.
“Is it that serious?”
Wu Jian Feng looked at the Chief of Staff with a serious expression.
“Yes!” The Chief of Staff nodded. You guys were originally very tired, so I definitely wanted to give you guys a rest…”
“No need, Chief. We are soldiers. How can we be as tired in a war? We can handle it.”Wu Jian Feng didn’t wait for the Chief of Staff to finish speaking.
“Yes, Chief of Staff, give the order!”
The instructor said seriously.
The report ended very quickly. There wasn’t much to report. The main point was what the Chief of Staff and Wu Jian Feng wanted to talk about.
Just as Wang Ye’s parents had said, there were many places in Xi Guang that were suffering from both internal and external disasters.
The rainfall was too heavy. Not only did the towns suffer from floods, but the cities were also not much better.
The drainage system could not drain it at all. Now, there might be a fish in some cities, and that fish could swim unimpeded in the entire city…
There was a serious shortage of manpower everywhere. Although the fourth company needed to prevent floods, it was currently handled well. For the time being, there did not seem to be any problems, so he thought about transferring the fourth company to support other places that needed more help.
