Chapter 216: The Company Commander Who Committed Suicide

At the end of the parade, Chen Di ordered the room to prepare wine and food for a feast of the soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info A hundred cauldrons were erected in the camp, and nearly two hundred pigs were slaughtered, skinned, and thrown into the cauldrons.

At night, the entire Flying Tiger Army camp was filled with a festive atmosphere. The soldiers drank wine and ate meat, feasted and were not happy.

Chen Di was guessing the boxing order with Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang, and Tang Shunzhi, and suddenly Zhao Laogen, the patrol officer on duty, came to Chen Di.

The position of patrol officer was created by Chen Di. Similar to the military staff officers on duty in later generations. There is no fixed number of patrol officers, and each battalion commander of the Flying Tiger Army is on duty every seven days. Its duty is to patrol the barracks and lead the sentries in the camp. Although the Flying Tigers were having fun with the officers and men tonight, only the sentries and camp patrol officers were not allowed to attend the banquet, and they had to be on guard and patrol in the camp.

Chen Di had toasted Zhao Laogen in the Jinluan Palace, so he naturally knew him. Chen Di said: "Camp Commander Zhao and the brothers who patrol the sentry have worked hard! Don't worry, the wine banquet is indispensable for you! Wait until tomorrow when you get off the post, and let the room make up for your wine and meat! ”

Zhao Laogen arched his hand and said: "Xie Dadu Governor Meiyi。。。。。 ”

Chen Di saw Zhao Laogen's panicked expression, and he stopped talking. Chen Di asked, "Camp Chief Zhao, what's wrong?" ”

Zhao Laogen fluttered and knelt down for Chen Di: "Governor, subordinates are derelict in their duties!" Xu Fugui, the company commander of the 8th Battalion of the Fire Gun, 。。。。。 Killed himself with a locust crossbow in the barracks! ”

Chen Di slammed the wine glass on the table with a "snap": "What? The company commander of the Flying Tiger Army committed suicide? ”

Zhao Laogen nodded: "Yes... Xu Fugui is an old brother in Yiwu, and I, who is a brother and a boss, are not optimistic about him. Subordinates damn it! ”

Chen Di asked: "Why did he commit suicide as an old flying tiger for no reason?" ”

Zhao Laogen replied: "Xu Fugui, this person didn't say anything about fighting, and he dared to play with his life." Being a human being and treating fellow brothers has always been to suffer losses and not take advantage. He's good everywhere, but there's a problem, he's good at gambling. The brethren knew about his problem. At this time, he went crazy and borrowed money from his brothers. The brothers knew that he must have become addicted to gambling again. So I asked the brethren not to lend him a tael of silver. Who would have thought that just now I inspected the barracks of the 8th Battalion of the Fire Gun and saw him。。。。。。。 Alas! It's all my fault! ”

Chen Di said: "Lead the way ahead, go to the barracks of the eighth battalion of the fire gun!" ”

Chen Di and the others came to the barracks of the eighth camp, only to see a corpse lying in the barracks, this should be Xu Fugui. Xu Fugui is dressed in a military uniform and has a sixth-class tiger medal pinned to his chest, which shows that Xu Fugui is an old flying tiger during the founding of the Yiwu army.

Xu Fugui held a grasshopper crossbow in his hand, and a crossbow arrow was inserted into Xu Fugui's right temple. In his left hand, he holds an envelope.

Chen Di broke his left hand and opened the envelope, which contained Xu Fugui's suicide note.

"Brothers, I can't help you. I can't live anymore, I can only die. I can't control my own hands, and when I was a miner in Yiwu, I loved to gamble when I had money. Three months ago, I received my monthly salary, and I took my money to wander around the capital. After strolling around, I entered the auspicious gambling house in the south city.

I had a good hand, and I won more than two hundred taels of silver that day. Since then, as soon as the turn comes, I will go to the auspicious gambling house. But just like falling for the evil, betting on the dice to buy big and open small, buy small and open big. Not to mention the fact that I won all the silver in the past, I also lost all the meritorious fields awarded to me by the imperial court! and owed a foreign debt of eight hundred taels of silver to the gambling house.

The day before yesterday, I went to the auspicious casino to turn over. Unexpectedly, the owner of the gambling house not only stopped giving me money on credit, but also asked me to pay off my old debts. He said that if I can't pay back the silver within three days, I will go to the Flying Tiger Army camp to find my Shangguan to ask for silver.

It is only natural to repay debts. There's not much to say about it. But I can't let the prestige of the Flying Tigers be tarnished! The company commander of the dignified Flying Tiger Army has not paid off his debts, how will the people think of the Flying Tiger Army in the future?

I can only die once, hoping that this will preserve the prestige of the Flying Tigers。。。。。 ”

Chen Di finished reading Xu Fugui's suicide note, and directly smashed the suicide note! The casino forced Lao Feihu to death, is this still necessary?

Chen Di shouted: "Patrol officer Zhao Laogen! Immediately gather a hundred firecrackers and follow me to the auspicious gambling house in the south of Shuntianfu City! ”

It's late at night, but the lights in the auspicious gambling house are still bright. A crowd of gamblers shouted in the gambling house.

Chen Di broke in with a hundred firecrackers!

Zhao Laogen shouted: "Sit down honestly for me!" ”

Liu Wanguan, the owner of the gambling house, said loudly: "Who is so bold that he dares to come to the auspicious gambling house to make trouble?" ”

Zhao Laogen was about to scold Liu Wanguan, but Chen Di made a look. Zhao Laogen understood and closed his mouth.

Chen Di asked Liu Wanguan: "Do you know who we are?" ”

Liu Wanguan looked at the soldiers holding the Tiger Might: "Look at your dress, it should be the Flying Tiger Army, right?" I also told you, don't care if it's Shuntianfu, Wucheng Terracotta Division or Flying Tiger Army, you can't care about my auspicious gambling house! ”

Chen Di sneered: "What a big breath! ”

Liu Wanguan said: "Do you know whose shares my auspicious gambling house has? ”

Chen Di asked: "Whose shares are there?" ”

Liu Wanguan said: "Hmph, don't say it, I'm afraid I'll scare you to death if I say it!" Come on, get out of here with your soldiers! I'll treat you as if you've never been here! If you don't leave, someone will kill you! ”

Liu Wanguan's tone was a little scary.

Chen Di ordered Zhao Laogen: "Tie him up." ”

Zhao Laogen ordered the soldiers: "Tie up this thing that doesn't know the height of the sky!" ”

Four soldiers of the Flying Tiger Army stepped forward and couldn't help but say that Liu Wanguan was tied up.

Liu Wanguan shouted hysterically: "It's against you!" ”

Chen Di said coldly: "Palm! ”

Zhao Laogen came up and gave Liu Wanguan more than a dozen big-eared posts.

Liu Wanguan slapped his mouth, and his arrogance immediately disappeared: "I said this adult, come here, I will tell you whose shares are in Jixiang Casino." ”

Chen Di walked up to Liu Wanguan. Liu Wanguan lowered his voice and said to Chen Di: "Does Lord Yan of the Yan Shifan know? He's the deputy chief of staff of the Flying Tigers! The eldest son of the cabinet Yan Shousuke! The righteous brother of the Metropolitan Governor Chen Di! In this auspicious gambling house, there can be Master Yan's dry shares! How about it, why don't you let me go? ”

Chen Di learned Liu Wanguan's tone, and also lowered his voice and said, "Do you know who I am?" I'm sorry, I'm Metropolitan Governor Chen Di! ”

When Liu Wanguan heard the word "Chen Di", he chuckled in his heart. "The Grand Governor, the small one has no eyes, and offended the Grand Governor. The Metropolitan came here late at night。。。。。 I don't know what you're doing. ”

Chen Di said: "Naturally, I want to gamble when I come to the gambling house!" How dare you bet with me? ”

Liu Wanguan breathed a long sigh of relief, it turned out that this Governor Chen Dadu came to Jixiang Gambling House to make money. That's easy to do, just lose some money to him secretly.

Liu Wanguan said: "Dare to ask the Governor what he wants to bet on, and how big a silver code is he betting?"

Chen Di said: "Bet on the dice." But it's not interesting to bet on silver, if you want to gamble, you have to gamble your life! ”

Liu Wanguan stumbled and asked, "Bet on your life。。。。。 Dare to ask Governor Chen, what kind of gambling method? ”

Chen Di said: "It's good to say, you sit in the village, and I bet on the size." Within ten of them, if I bet on one of them, I'll cut off your head and kill you!" If I can't win any of the ten, I'll take my brothers with me! ”
