The squad leader, Steven Goode, paused for two seconds and introduced the man wearing glasses: "This is Mr. Don McLean from the Military Academy's Teaching Office. He is responsible for handling the admission and departure of international students. Please clean up immediately. , and then follow Mr. Don McLean to go through the withdrawal procedures, and the school has already arranged a boat ticket for you to return to China in two days."
"You!" the instructor, Second Lieutenant Jonas Hansen, said to the Asian-faced trainee, "After Zhou leaves, this bed will be yours."
Second Lieutenant Jonas Hansen spoke without looking at Zhou Zhihan. This is the worst student he has ever taught since he became an instructor, and it can also be regarded as his biggest failure.
"Yes, sir!"
The Asian student straightened his back, Second Lieutenant Jonas Hansen said, and then glanced at Zhou Zhihan with contemptuous eyes.
Obviously, the freshman knew that Zhou Zhihan was Chinese. The corners of his mouth turned up, showing the posture of a strong man.
Second Lieutenant Jonas Hansen waved his pointer out of habit: "What's your name?"
"Sakamoto Ryunosuke. Sir!"
Second Lieutenant Jonas Hansen nodded: "Yeah! Remember, soldiers' beds must be kept clean and tidy, and don't make them dirty and messy like a chicken coop."
Zhou Zhihan frowned, Sakamoto Ryunosuke? Japanese?
Mr. Don McLean looked at Zhou Zhihan's hanging socks on the bedside and frowned: "I'll wait for you outside. Zhou, hurry up, I have other things to do." After that, he turned and walked out of the door.
Sakamoto Ryunosuke took a few steps forward and put the mesh bag holding his shoes on Zhou Zhihan's bed, as if you should leave as soon as possible and this bed will be mine from now on.
"Sir! Who said I have to leave? The school has no reason to let me leave."
Instead, Zhou Zhihan squatted down on the bed, then picked up his own socks and put them on the handle of Sakamoto Ryunosuke's mesh handbag. He pinched the handbag through the socks with two fingers and threw it to the ground.
"Damn..." Seeing a few lumps of stiff socks exposed from a small bag under Zhou Zhihan's pillow, the dormitory warden, Sergeant Jink White, cursed softly. He felt that the smell was wrong when he entered the room.
Zhou Zhihan picked up the pillow and covered the small bag again: "Sakamoto Ryunosuke, is it your mother who didn't teach you to be polite and respect your seniors, or are you Japanese people lacking in education?"
As soon as Zhou Zhihan said this, everyone present was stunned at the same time.
Second Lieutenant Jonas Hansen and Steven Goode looked at Zhou Zhihan together, feeling a little strange for a moment. The attitude of this Chinese international student was a bit abnormal.
Sakamoto Ryunosuke didn't expect Zhou Zhihan to do this, and he actually dared to humiliate himself in public with his smelly socks. Although he was angry, he couldn't get angry in front of the instructor and others. It was indeed his fault that he disrespected his seniors. It is a school rule that you put your shoes on the bed before someone leaves. This is really disrespectful.
After listening to everyone's conversation just now, he understood that Zhou Zhihan was a Chinese loser who was persuaded to quit because his indicators did not meet the requirements of the military academy, so he immediately felt contempt for him.
You are useless, you can bully powerful people who want to bully them. This is an unchanging truth since ancient times.
The sick man of East Asia was born short in front of the people of the Japanese Empire.
After hearing Zhou Zhihan's words, Mr. Don McLean, who had walked to the door, stopped, turned around, and took off the cigarette holder he was holding: "West Point Military Academy is world-famous and will not expel a student casually or deliberately. Dissuade a student. I'm not asking you if you remember the Catch-22 rules of West Point. I'm just asking you if you remember the Three Rules."
Zhou Zhihan blurted out: "Country, honor, responsibility!"
"Okay!" Mr. Don McLean took a few steps forward. "Since you know the rules of West Point Military Academy, have you ever thought about why your country sent you here? You have to fight for honor for your country and the military academy, and you have to do your best. Do you take on the responsibilities you need to take on?”
Zhou Zhihan held it in for a few seconds: "Yes! Sir!" He said this with a bit of secret shame. His predecessor was a loser and had indeed failed everyone's hopes.
"Yes?" Mr. Don McLean laughed angrily, "All of your physical fitness indicators are not up to standard and do not meet the requirements of West Point, so you can only withdraw. This is not directed at you alone. All the students who arrive at West Point have poor grades. Our school treats all qualified students equally and will advise them to withdraw.
Because you are an international student, our school made an exception and gave you another chance, but you didn't cherish it, you were lazy, you didn't seek to make progress, you didn't do morning exercises, and you didn't train and wandered around every day. West Point School doesn’t need students like you. "
Zhou Zhihan straightened his back: "Mr. Don McLean! I cherish the opportunity given to me by the school very much. But sir, where is the opportunity? The school sent me directly back to China without testing my physical fitness. Is this fair?" "
Mr. Don McLean was stunned when he heard this.
Yes, everyone in the Military Education Department believed that it was impossible for this Chinese student to pass the physical fitness test, so no one proposed to give Zhou Zhihan a physical fitness test, but let him leave directly when the time limit came.
Everyone knew that Zhou Zhihan slept in every day and did not do morning exercises or exercise. How could such a person pass the demanding physical fitness test of West Point Military Academy.
However, it is indeed unfair to let him drop out of school without giving him a physical fitness test.
Mr. Don McLean was at a loss for words.
"Classmate Zhou!" Sergeant Jinke White, the dormitory administrator, stepped forward to rescue him and said, "When you first came here, your training and life were normal, but you have not made any progress. This is obvious to everyone.
Recently, you have been leaving early and coming back late, and you have been absent from training. The Military Education Department did not let you take a physical test, but it was also for your own good and to save you some face.
Everyone knows that you Chinese people are thin, and you look even more frail. How could you possibly pass West Point's super tough physical test? "
Hearing this, Zhou Zhihan frowned, Mad, you are looking at people through colored glasses.
"Sergeant!" Zhou Zhihan said to the dormitory administrator Jinke White, "Just because I have not participated in daily training recently does not mean that I cannot complete those training tasks, nor does it mean that I cannot pass the physical fitness test.
The reason why I don’t train is actually because I feel that the training in the military academy is not intense enough and the training methods are too simple and uninnovative. It feels boring and lacks motivation. It would be better to sleep in the dormitory. "
Zhou Zhihan's meaning is too obvious. Didn't you, Sergeant Jink White, say that we Chinese are weak and that I am weak? Sorry, the training volume and training methods that your West Point Military Academy considers to be world-leading, in my opinion, are too simple and boring.
This sounds very arrogant.
But Mr. Jink White and Don McLean had contemptuous smiles on their faces.
They had seen many students like Zhou Zhihan being persuaded to quit.
Almost every cadet who was persuaded to quit said something like this when he left. He just wanted to express that West Point was not worthy of him and that he could not leave. It makes people feel that it is not that he is not worthy of West Point, but that West Point cannot retain him and is not worthy of him.
"The sick man of East Asia! He just takes advantage of his words."
Sakamoto Ryunosuke hated Zhou Zhihan for humiliating him with his smelly socks just now, so he whispered in half-baked Chinese. His voice was very low, but he ensured that Zhou Zhihan could hear it. Except for him and Zhou Zhihan, no one else here probably understands Chinese.
Zhou Zhihan smiled instead of being angry, and said to Ryunosuke Sakamoto in Chinese: "You remember, of all the Japanese who said this, not a single one got a good ending."
Sakamoto Ryunosuke sneered. He was half China-savvy and could understand Chinese. He just wanted to make this Chinese student look good.
Ryunosuke Sakamoto is a Japanese student studying abroad.
At this time, Japan maintained close ties with the United States, both militarily and economically. Every year, nearly a hundred international students graduated from various military schools in the United States and returned home. Their social status in the United States was far higher than that of international students from other Asian countries.
Since the Meiji Restoration, Japan has begun to focus on cultivating talents year by year. Every year, they send many international students to various Western developed countries to learn various advanced military concepts and military and civilian technologies.
The Japanese who have studied China in depth know very well that working behind closed doors was the main reason for the collapse of the Qing government. Only through all-round exchanges with Western powers is the way to become a strong country.
West Point Military Academy has a distinguished reputation and is also a golden brand of the United States. It recruits many elite international students from various countries every year. This is also a good way to increase the country's reputation.
The school brings together elite students from all over the world, including many Japanese students. They learn various advanced military concepts, techniques and tactics. After returning home, they communicate with domestic military elites and quickly improve the military's tactical and practical capabilities.
In fact, both China and Japan know very well that sooner or later there will be a war between the two countries.
Japan is making all-out preparations to launch a war of aggression against China. However, since the Northern Expedition, the Nationalist Government has been full of warlords, big and small, each with their own agendas and shrewd calculations to preserve their strength. They seem to share the same hatred, but in fact they are divided internally.
In the past half month since time travel, Zhou Zhihan still followed his predecessor's habits and was cautious, for fear of exposing the trap of the time traveler, although people at this time still didn't know what time travel was.
But only with caution can you sail the ship of ten thousand years. If you have just crossed over and show a completely different training and lifestyle from your predecessor, it will easily arouse others' suspicion.
Otherwise, he would have returned to Randolph Air Force Academy based on his strength.
Now, it's time to show off and show off!
What is the golden finger for?
If you don't show off, why do you need golden fingers?
"Sir! I request a physical fitness test!"
Zhou Zhihan raised his chin slightly, looking confident that he was determined to win.
This is a reasonable request.
It was so reasonable that, except for Ryunosuke Sakamoto, Don McLean and others immediately nodded in agreement.
Half an hour later, Zhou Zhihan appeared on one of the martial arts fields at the Army Academy at West Point.
