"Chapter 4: Generosity"

Unexpressed emotions never go away. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info they were just buried alive and one day would erupt in an even uglier way.

The day before the official start of the army, the soldiers of the 40th Army ushered in their long-awaited pay day, which was also the custom of the Imperial Army, and the soldiers were paid for the next three months in advance before each expedition.

In the past, the Imperial Military Department paid each soldier three silver coins per month, but in recent years, with the increasingly serious financial crisis of the Empire, the military salary of the soldiers has dropped from three silver coins to two silver coins.

Bai Feng, who was the captain of the Seventh Wing, was called to the Legion Commander's tent by Giscar's guards, and found that the military tent was full of boxes containing silver coins, while the Legion Commander Giscard and the other seven Wing Commanders all had iron and blue faces.

Bai Feng, who had learned about the customs of going out to pay salaries from Bonella and others, walked into the military tent, pointed to the box containing silver coins in the center of the military tent and asked Giscard: "General, is this the three-month military salary that our various wings are about to pay?"

"Three months' salary?" Before Giscard could speak, a black-faced wing captain next to him sneered: "Those old men from the Imperial Military Department are reluctant to give us three months' salary, they wish we didn't take a single silver coin, and they still worked for them!"

"Presumptuous!" Such a damaging remark made Giscard, who was already frowning, immediately roar angrily: "Rodwell, do you still look like an Imperial soldier?

"General. In the face of the rebuke of the regiment commander, the captain of the Rodville wing stiffened his head and said: "I am a soldier of the Empire, not a soldier of the Imperial Military Department;

"You ......" The angry Giscard just wanted to scold angrily, but the captain of the wing, who had met Bai Feng at the gate of the barracks that day, hurriedly stood up and admonished: "General, the captain of the Rodwell wing is also angry, don't be like him if you have a lot." ”

"Yes, General. Seeing that Giscard's anger had not yet dissipated, another wing captain stood up and said frankly: "Don't say it's the captain of Rodville, even we are all dissatisfied;

"General, I also think it's the fault of the military department this time, and I really can't blame the Captain of the Rodwell Wing. The other co-captains were not idle, and they all stood up to speak for the Rodwell co-captain, only Bai Feng, who didn't understand the situation, stood in place without saying a word.

"Alas, do you think I'm not angry?" Seeing the co-captains under his command persuading him to persuade him, Giscard sighed helplessly: "But, what can I do? Go to the military headquarters to make trouble? Or go to His Majesty the Emperor to ask for it?"

"General, we also know that the empire can't get too much military pay now, but we can't give each soldier three silver coins, even according to the reduced military salary, each soldier should also get six silver coins, three silver coins is too little!"

After hearing the words of the Wing Captain, a disappointed Ghiscard whispered to him, "Kabul, you are the most resourceful Wing Commander of our Legion, can't even you solve this problem?"

The wry-smiling Caboul didn't speak, but shook his head helplessly, Bai Feng, who still knew a little about the 40th Legion, knew that he was the co-captain of the 1st Wing, Kabul, and he was barely Giscard's military advisor.

Even Kabul, the military advisor, shook his head and said nothing, and the other wing commanders naturally had no choice, and the atmosphere in the military tent became dull;

"General. Before proposing his own solution, Bai Feng first asked Giscard, who was silent: "If we have a way to prepare more military salaries by ourselves, will the military department embarrass us?"

"Prepare your own military salary?!" Giscard, who was shocked in his heart, seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and said urgently to Bai Feng with hot eyes: "Bai Feng, you have a way to prepare more military salaries for us, right?"

As soon as these words came out, the other wing commanders in the military tent also turned their eager eyes to Bai Feng; in their opinion, it was definitely not difficult for the Bai family, which had been in the limelight recently, to solve the issue of the military salary of the 40th Army Corps.

Facing everyone's expectant eyes, Bai Feng, who had a calm face, said indifferently: "As long as the Imperial Military Department does not embarrass us, I can personally contribute 240,000 silver coins to raise the military salary of each soldier to fifteen silver coins." ”

"Two hundred and forty thousand silver coins?!" everyone present was shocked by Bai Feng's magnanimity.

Bai Feng, who had millions of silver coins in the White Spirit Ring, poured 240,000 silver coins into the center of the military tent under the incredible eyes of everyone, and stared blankly at the mountain of silver coins, even Giscard felt his breathing become heavy.

"Generals, co-captains, these silver coins are my personal property, and they have nothing to do with the Bai family, we are all members of the big family of the Fortieth Legion, and it is my honor to be able to contribute to our big family!"

"That's good!!" Giscard, whose face turned red, stood up and said, "Bai Feng, I really didn't misunderstand you!"

"Brother Bai Feng, you will be my brother in the future, if anyone dares to bully you, I will help you kill him!"

"Brother Bai Feng, we welcome you to our big family!" this was a welcome from Kabul.

"Brother Bai Feng......" The other wing captains naturally did not dare to lag behind, and they all thanked Bai Feng; taking advantage of this opportunity, Bai Feng happened to get to know these wing captains one by one, and matched them with the various wings of the 40th Legion.

Among them, the most recognized by Bai Feng are the first wing captain Kabur and the ninth wing captain Rodwell, and the other seven wing captains are: second wing captain Pereira, third wing captain Moya, fourth wing captain Destro, fifth wing captain Debichy, sixth wing captain Kleber, eighth wing captain Zuniga, tenth wing captain Evans.

After the matter of military salaries was settled, the other nine wing captains each left the military tent with their own military salaries, but Bai Feng was left behind by Giscard, which was also expected by Bai Feng.

When only Giscard and Bai Feng were left in the military tent, the slightly embarrassed Giscard apologized embarrassedly: "Bai Feng, the matter of letting you raise your own equipment before was an excessive move out of desperation, I hope you don't mind!"

"General, I know that you were forced to let me raise my own equipment, since I am now a member of the 40th Legion, it is also my responsibility to contribute to the Legion, if you still need equipment, I can provide you with enough equipment to arm a thousand men!"

What does it mean to repay grievances with virtue? This is called repaying grievances with virtue! What does it mean to be broad-minded? This is called broad-mindedness! Giscard was the confidant general of the Eighth Prince and a true soldier of the empire; at this moment, he was impressed by Bai Feng's open-mindedness and moved by Bai Feng's selflessness.

Of course, Bai Feng has his own purpose in doing all this, but Bai Feng is a person who is willing to give, he understands the relationship between giving and giving, and understands that only by giving more can he get more.
