The old colonel waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't talk about these past things, our army is to protect the water and soil of one side, and we don't have to worry about whether we are promoted or not." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Hearing the old man say this, everyone could only sigh in response.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, the second lieutenant colonel immediately changed the topic: "Sir, since Zhao Hu has a special status, do we still want to fight their war horse idea?" ”

"Of course! No matter what his status is, since he is an officer of the Fifth Wing, then he should follow orders, and the commander did not take his personal guards into the army and did not directly send him into battle, even if he gave him face! The old lieutenant colonel said first.

The old colonel did not care about this act that offended his majesty, but listened to the discussion of his subordinates with a gentle expression.

"That's right, we must get these war horses, you know, our current materials can no longer attract mountain bandits down the mountain, and this batch of war horses is enough to lure several dry mountain bandits to loot in batches, and these dry mountain bandits are enough to make our soldiers' salaries climb to the next level!" The third lieutenant colonel shouted.

Thinking that his soldiers could get more salaries, all the officers nodded in agreement.

When the old man saw that the situation had been decided, he also spoke: "Well, since this is the case, let's make a request to Major Zhao Hu and Major Mark in a few days, I believe they will understand our difficulties." ”

The third lieutenant colonel said with a hideous face: "Hehe, please rest assured, sir, they will be very happy." ”

Hearing this, except for the old man who shook his head helplessly, everyone else agreed.

"You take ten people to the street to buy back our mattress sheets, three sets per person, and the adults and eldest sisters are a little more upscale. You take 10 people to the restaurant to order food, you take 10 people to buy cleaning tools, and your whole team goes to buy decoration materials. Sun Jie threw out the money bags one by one, and the guards who took the money bags took the people away.

And Zhou Wen commanded the rest of the men to do it brutally: "Tear down this wall, don't move that place!" yes, vacate it for me, make a garden decoration, and tear down that door for me! ”

With the orders of these two bosses, the courtyard occupied by Zhao Hu's side immediately rumbled and flew into the sky.

Hearing the movement, Mark and the others rushed over, and looked at the scene of the construction in front of them in a daze.

Mark was a little surprised and said to Zhao Hu, who was standing aside and watching like no one else: "Zhao Hu, what are you doing with these guards?" Don't you want to rebuild these courtyards? ”

Zhao Hu smiled: "No, it's just to change the structure and make these five courtyards one." ”

"Ahh Oh, I see. Mark was busy hiding his panic.

Boss, this is the county governor's mansion, and the layout has regulations, how can you change it without authorization if you are not the county magistrate?

Of course, he didn't say these words, after all, he thought that it was very normal for a person of Zhao Hu's status to be so messy.

"Yes, Zhao Hu, have you recruited men and servants? Do you want me to recruit a few for you? Mark asked.

"No, Master Mark, I've already sent someone to recruit him, thank you Lord Mark for being so enthusiastic." Zhou Wen floated over and laughed.

Seeing Zhou Wen's pretty face, Mark was in a trance, and then hurriedly shook his hand and said, "You're welcome." ”

Zhou Wen ignored him, and directly pulled Zhao Hu as he walked, and said, "My lord, let me explain to you the structure of the new courtyard." ”

Mark looked at the backs of Zhao Hu and the others, and after a while, he waved his hand and said, "Go." So he went out with his guards.

At dusk, the old man who had eaten dinner was squinting and drinking tea at the wing headquarters, and his subordinates were also gathered in twos and threes to chat.

Suddenly, the old third lieutenant colonel ran in and said, "Sir, that Zhao Hu is really fucking rich, he just moved in and built a lot of construction, and he also sent people to buy a lot in the city." What's more, all of their Chinese food and dinner were ordered from a restaurant in the city! ”

As soon as these words came out, several young officers immediately shouted: "Damn! The food of the soldiers is better than that of us officers! ”

"Damn! A tasting restaurant? The most expensive restaurant in the city! Zhao Hu, that guy even ordered the food of the little soldier there? Rich! It's fucking rich! ”

Although the other officers did not respond to these words, the look in their eyes showed that they were very jealous, envious and contemptuous.

In fact, it is no wonder that they are like this, because they only have a dead salary, and they have to take care of the families of their brothers who died in the war, they are a little nervous to support their families, let alone eat and drink. In the entire wing, except for the captain of the wing, who had four personal guards, none of the officers had personal guards.

Usually, in order to save expenses, they all work in the wing headquarters, but even if they use public funds, they are nervous, and there are no big fish and meat at all, just full of food.

It's pitiful to say, in a year, only the two festivals of the Chinese New Year and the emperor's enthronement day can see the smell of oil. So now it is very difficult to see that a small major can make his guards eat and drink, and these officers have no opinions in their hearts.

The old man's co-captain didn't care, and asked out loud, "What about Mark?" ”

The third lieutenant colonel replied: "This kid is not so arrogant, that is, he purchased some bedding nets and daily necessities outside, and the Chinese food is eaten at street stalls, and the dinner is run by recruited men." Although he is also a little wealthy, he is much more low-key than that Zhao Hu. ”

Hearing this, the officers present had a good impression of Mark.

The old lieutenant colonel suddenly said, "Maybe we can make a profit from these two guys." ”

The second lieutenant colonel smiled: "Don't dream, big brother. We still want to requisition their war horses to seduce the mountain bandits, so how valuable are those war horses, I don't know if we can get them, and now we still want to make another profit from them? ”

The eldest lieutenant colonel smiled: "Hehe, second, you don't understand people's hearts, if you are vigilant, which of these two people will you be wary of?" ”

The second lieutenant colonel blinked: "Huh? Why do you suddenly ask this? After thinking for a while, he said, "It should be that Mark, right?" Obviously he is just a small major, but he can feed dozens of guards, and they are all equipped with war horses, which is enough to prove that he is very rich, but since he is so rich, he deliberately keeps a low profile, which seems a bit contrived.

"And that Zhao Hu, at first glance, knows that he is an upper-class person, so it is very normal for him to be so prominent, if he is low-key, it will be worrying. Comparing the two, everyone knows which one to be wary of. ”

The eldest lieutenant colonel said with a smile: "You see that people are also full of sets, so we have to see people to cook, you look at Zhao Hu's style, and he wants a war horse, as long as the excuse is used enough, he will definitely give it, and we cry and cry poor, let alone scrape a stroke from him."

"As for that Mark, he is obviously rich but so low-key, he must be a careerist, since he is a careerist, he knows how to exchange, as long as the things we come up with are good enough, he will definitely be willing to cut the meat."

The second lieutenant colonel slapped his thigh: "Damn! If you cry poor, you can exchange it for equipment funds, and you can make Lao Tzu cry every day! ”

And the third child shouted: "Don't say crying!" Tell me to cut my flesh and sell my blood! ”

Not to mention the other officers, they all shouted.

When the old colonel heard these words, his face changed, and he felt a little bitter, but he continued to squint his eyes and play with the teacup, and did not say a word.

"Big brother, Zhao Hu, a superior person, doesn't have to pay attention to it for the time being, so what benefits are we going to take for Mark to let him cut his meat?" The third lieutenant colonel asked curiously.

"It's simple, what careerists crave is strength, and strength is military power." The eldest lieutenant colonel said in a good time.

"What? Soldiers! ”

All the officers jumped up: "Boss, this is not good!" It's a big hassle to put such a careerist in our wing! ”

The hall was immediately in a chaotic uproar.

"Panic what." The old colonel's words immediately made the scene instantly silent.

Seeing that everyone had quieted down, the old man nodded to the old lieutenant colonel and motioned for him to continue.

The eldest lieutenant colonel smiled: "Look at your urgency, your eldest brother and I are idiots, and I will not arrange him in the army." ”

"Then how do you give him military power? Is it possible to organize his own soldiers into a squadron and make him the commander-in-chief? We don't have the right to expand. The second lieutenant colonel asked suspiciously.

"Hey, not only do we not have it, but even the division commander doesn't have the right to expand. But don't forget, the City Guard is under the jurisdiction of the local garrison. The eldest lieutenant colonel laughed.

"City Guard? Big brother, did you forget? At the beginning, in order to be able to put the city gate tax collectors in the hands and help the brothers, we disbanded the city guard, and now the city guard of Jin County is our wing, where is there any city guard. ”

As soon as the third child said this, he immediately jumped up and shouted, "You don't want to hand over the city guard to that mark, do you?" Eldest brother! The number of city guards is calculated according to the proportion of the urban population! For example, we have more than 50,000 residents in Jinwen County, and the establishment of the city guard can reach thousands of people! It's almost two brigades! ”

"Hehe, where could I be so stupid, aren't the general city guards divided into squads by city gates? As soon as the four gates were divided, the number of people immediately dropped, and it was about the same as the number of his personal guards, so we handed over the team in charge of the west gate to him, what do you think?

"This is a good opportunity, our team has not met anyone who can safely scrape oil and water for more than ten years." The eldest lieutenant colonel said with a wink.

"Simon? Aha, Simon facing the woods? No one goes in and out of the West Gate at all? Big brother, you're so bad! The officers immediately burst into laughter.
