NovelEnglishReborn at Boot Camp: General, Don’t Mess Around!
Chapter 1557: She Was Here, ExcitedOn the shore was a man, with a towering temperament like a mountain, standing in the dark and guarding like a reef sea, no matter how high the waves were, he never moved.
He looked at the waterproof watch and pressed his slender finger gently on the dial pad. The watch had a faint green light illuminating several sets of numbers, one of which was displayed as “21:18:47.”
It took two and a half hours for the plane to take off from the military airport to Shuangyue Jiao Island. Yeah, this duration was about right.
As more and more figures came ashore, the man turned off the light on his watch and stood straight in front of everyone, his eyes slowly sweeping over everyone.

A sense of oppression also followed, making everyone who was tired maintained an upright standing posture, motionlessly accepting his gaze.
He didn’t speak, so everyone continued to stand still as if they were going to stand together until the next day.
The sky was clear, and the moon was bright, dotted with stars.
On the sea surface, the waves undulated endlessly, and the monotonous ebb and flow of water resembled the applause of thousands of people, applauding for this group of soldiers guarding the border of their motherland.
About twenty minutes later, the ink-like seawater made even bigger waves. When the waves’ sound was louder, the sound of propellers “rumbled” from the horizon into the monotonous sound of the sea, and the man standing in front opened his mouth. “Turn back!”
His voice was like the first snow blooming, with the most primitive coldness, so cold that it seemed that he had rubbed snow into his heart; every word was extremely cold.
All of them turned around, facing the sea, looking towards the sky in full gaze.
The man stood next to them, pressed a button on the side of the dial pad. A light source illuminating the dial at 12 o’clock, 4 o’clock, and 8 o’clock. This was to send a signal to the aircraft on the flying helicopter to let the helicopter pilot know their specific location.
“Confirm the location and prepare to launch.” The helicopter pilot with earmuffs received the ground signal and reported several sets of distance numbers between the ground, the sea, and the aircraft, to the two crew members behind him.

As the helicopter pilot accurately reported the figures, everyone standing on the coast saw a military helicopter gradually enlarged from a petrel-sized figure until it stayed above them.
The strong wind from the propeller “whoops,” blowing the sea and sand on all the stalwart faces facing the sea.
Their wet combat uniforms were covered with fine sea sand in less than a minute, and their faces, eyebrows, and eyelashes were more like wearing a sea sand mask. It was completely unclear who was who.
There was sea sand in their eyes. It was sore and painful. The sea breeze blew across their eyes and face, bringing a strange itch like tens of thousands of ants crawling into clothes and crawling over the body. But they gazed ahead and defended every inch of land behind them.
“Open the door and carry out the delivery.” The helicopter pilot-operated the helicopter proficiently, keeping the entire fuselage still in the air, confirming the delivery height, and then started to deliver the items.
The cold-spoken man walked in front of them and watched the supplies from the helicopter with his comrades. It seemed that they had benefited because of Ye Jian as the supplies were supplied three days earlier.
