Several soldiers couldn't stand Zhuang Jihua's urgency, and successively reported why Guan Linzheng had aroused public anger, and their reports were basically the same as Zhuang Jihua's estimates.

Guan Linzheng's surname is like a fire and a short temper, and most of the Sichuan people, especially Xiong Kewubu, are from Yucheng, and the people of Yucheng are also unruly, and the two will inevitably conflict.

The original Sichuan army also has political education, the main slogans put forward are mainly Sichuan people governing Sichuan, the rest is still what to maintain the republic, oppose the Beiyang warlords, etc., although these slogans are vague, there is no clear implementation strategy, but under several years of education, these slogans have been rooted in the minds of the Sichuan soldiers, Guan Linzheng can not explain where this slogan is wrong, so Guan Linzheng came to the third company on the first day of the conflict with the soldiers, when he lectured, the soldiers did not understand, and some people took out these slogans and asked the wrong where, Guan Linzheng was asked, and then the soldiers coaxed, Guan Linzheng couldn't hold it on his face, he took a simple suppression, and the result was naturally clear, the soldiers obeyed temporarily, but they were not convinced in their hearts.

Then Guan Linzheng clashed with the soldiers continuously, and also clashed with the officers of the original Sichuan Army who stayed, Guan Linzheng beat four times in six days, the most serious is today, Guan Linzheng used his hands to beat Ma Yuwa to spit blood, unconscious, the soldiers' backlog of grievances suddenly broke out, several Ma Yuwa's fellow villagers on the spot and Guan Linzheng moved, Guan Linzheng was also powerful, he beat those fellow countrymen, but then the whole company of soldiers rushed up, Guan Linzheng was defeated and retreated, closed the door, and never dared to come out again. Until Zhuang Jihua came to call him.

After the investigation was clear, Zhuang Jihua asked Guan Linzheng in front of all the soldiers if this was the case, Guan Linzheng stubbornly replied yes, and then he argued that these people were purely vexatious and challenged the prestige of the commander.

"Prestige? Gain trust by coercion or credibility by trust? Zhuang Jihua asked seriously, Guan Linzheng was stunned, he had never thought about this problem.

Zhuang Jihua announced in front of the soldiers of the whole company that Guan Linzheng would be confined for three days, and after three days, he would inspect the soldiers of the whole company in the third company, and decide on the final punishment according to their level of knowledge.

Zheng Jiemin didn't expect Zhuang Jihua to let him preside, but in front of the officers and soldiers of the whole company, he couldn't refuse, so he had to agree, and then Guan Linzheng was immediately escorted away and confined to prison.

After dealing with Guan Linzheng, Zhuang Jihua began to deal with the troublesome soldiers. If this kind of thing happens in the army, it must be punished, and if no one is punished, no one will be able to take this company well.

"According to military regulations, the siege of the company headquarters should also be punished." Zhuang Jihua paced back and forth in front of the queue, and the nervous gazes of the soldiers followed his figure from left to right and from right to left. The Clever Point began to look around for which ones could escape.

"Now the leader who is attacking the company headquarters is out of the ranks," Zhuang Jihua has figured out how to punish these soldiers.

No one in the queue moved, these were all veterans, and they all knew what to do with the shock company, and the fifty lashes of the light were the worst of the head.

"Dare to act and dare to be a hero." Zhuang Jihua saw that no one admitted it, so he began to use the radical method again. But what disappointed him was that this time the agitation failed, and none of the veterans moved their nests.

"Luo Bing, fight and fly."

"Here." Luo Bing and Zhan Yifei both replied.

"Those are the leaders?"

Luo Bing and Zhan Yifei looked at each other, and the two of them understood the answer from each other's eyes.

"I don't know, sir."

"Don't know? is righteous enough, but if you want to be a good man, you have to pay a price. You have to think about it. Zhuang Jihua sneered and threatened.

Luo Binghe and Zhan Yifei gritted their teeth and still insisted: "Report to the chief, I really don't know, I wasn't there when it happened. ”

"Okay, it's a man, here." Zhuang Jihua shouted loudly, and two soldiers came over with the order.

"Luo Bing, as soon as the battle flies, he neglects his duties, neglects his training, and is punished with two days of confinement, and he will be executed immediately."

Hearing that it was only two days of confinement, Luo Bing and Zhan Yifei breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and the soldiers also breathed a sigh of relief, and some of their clenched fists were also released.

The atmosphere at the scene was still tense, and Zhuang Jihua was also thinking about how to find out the leading soldiers.

"It seems that you are still not good enough to be a good man, and you are still afraid of military regulations, so that's fine. However, there are still penalties. Zhuang Jihua continued: "If no one admits it, I will only punish Quanlian." ”

"I didn't do it, why punish me." Immediately someone was not convinced.

"I know that there are people who didn't participate, just watching the excitement from the sidelines, and I know that you must know that those are the leaders, but I don't want to ask you, I want the leaders to come out by themselves. Prove that you are a man. ”

"If you don't come out, it means that you also know that storming the company headquarters is a very serious mistake and must be punished, otherwise the military discipline of the third company will be wiped out, and an army without military discipline will not be an army, it is a bandit. Now I give you one last chance, and the leader himself will come out and be punished, or I will punish the whole company; If you think that the law does not hold the people accountable, then you are wrong, and I would rather dismiss the three companies than punish you. Ten oceans of severance pay per person, go back to Sichuan by yourself, where to go, you choose for yourself. Zhuang Jihua's attitude is very resolute.

Zheng Jiemin was very nervous, he actually knew that those people were the leaders, but he didn't know why Zhuang Jihua didn't ask him from beginning to end, he handed Zhuang Jihua a look, but only Zhuang Jihua glared at him fiercely, and scared him back. What he didn't understand even more was that Zhuang Jihua's handling was public from beginning to end, and he didn't consult with anyone. He didn't know if these leading soldiers really didn't come out, whether Zhuang Jihua really wanted to punish the whole company, and whether he really wanted to dismiss the whole company.

"Righteousness is an inexplicable thing, sometimes it is good, sometimes it is bad. Righteousness on the battlefield can help the troops to unite their combat effectiveness, but if it is used to fight against military discipline, righteousness is not worth advocating, and that will undermine the discipline of the army, and the army's combat effectiveness depends on strict discipline. Now that you are using your righteous anger to fight against military discipline, then I will have to deal with heavy hands. Zhuang Jihua said very calmly, as if he was chatting, but the more he did this, the more frightened these soldiers were.

"The brothers are righteous to you, and you should also be righteous to the brothers, and do not trouble them, but come out and receive the punishment yourself."

In Zhuang Jihua's chattering "small talk", finally someone couldn't stand it.

"The head has fallen off the bowl and has a big scar, damn x, Lao Tzu is the leader." A short and sturdy soldier walked out of the queue scolding, looking at Zhuang Jihua nonchalantly.

"Okay, the first one, what's the name." Zhuang Jihua didn't care about his attitude anymore.

"Lao Tzu's name is Duan Kunpeng, let's say, kill the head or shoot it." Duan Kunpeng said nonchalantly. Zhuang Jihua smiled grimly.

"Who else, he can't be the only one." Zhuang Jihua asked loudly.

After a while, two more soldiers walked to the front swearing.

"Gone? If it is found out, it can be punished severely. Zhuang Jihua asked loudly again.

No one came out again.

"I'll give you one last minute, it's not too late to come out."

A minute passed quickly, and Zhuang Jihua's face was cold: "Zheng Jiemin." ”

"Here." Zheng Jiemin stepped forward quickly.

"Did you say there was anything else?"

"Yes, he, he, he..." Zheng Jiemin quickly pointed out the four people.

"Okay, let's go down." Zhuang Jihua said to the four people who were named: "You come out." The four of them walked to the front tremblingly.

"I have not wronged you. Everyone said that they had not been wronged. ”

"Sir....spare your life." The four shouted in fear.

"Stop, stop... I'm not going to kill you. Zhuang Jihua waved his hand to stop them from begging for mercy: "But I look down on people who dare not do it." ”

When the four of them heard that they would not kill them, their hearts settled down a little.

"You three" Zhuang Jihua said to the three people who came out: "The punishment is as follows, confinement for three days, in-depth inspection, and immediate execution." ”

The three of them were stupid, they thought that the worst was dozens of leather whips, but they didn't expect it to be so simple, but they soon wondered again, what is the inspection?

"Long... Sir, is this the end? Duan Kunpeng stammered and asked.

"Yes, this is the punishment, what more do you want, whip or shoot, the latter I can satisfy you, the former is not, my troops do not allow corporal punishment." Zhuang Jihua said neatly.

The soldiers below "Boom" couldn't help but laugh, and someone shouted: "Duan Scar, you dog is old." ”

"The chief gave him fifty lashes."

…….

"Sir," Duan Kunpeng stammered even more amid the soldiers' heckling: "So....what is that inspection?" ”

Only then did Zhuang Jihua remember that the soldier's education level was very low, and it was probably difficult to write an inspection.

"Writing a check is to write down your understanding of this matter, where the mistake is, whether you will make it in the future, write these out."

Duan Kunpeng and the three of them cried at the same time: "Sir, we are illiterate, do you want to be punished?" ”

"Then how can it be done, the military order is like a mountain," Zhuang Jihua shook his head and vetoed: "That's it, when the time comes, you can just tell your understanding in front of the whole company." ”

Duan Kunpeng was even more anxious now, he was the leader of the robe brother in the third company, let him check in front of the whole company, and put his face there.

Brother Pao is a gang organization in Sichuan, from the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, the League will use gangs from all over the country to oppose the Qing Dynasty, Xiong Kewu is no exception, his troops have also absorbed a lot of Brother Pao. During the Republic of China, people from all walks of life in Sichuan participated in Brother Pao, and every village and township had Brother Pao organizations, and there were many people who formed an army, the most famous of which was Fan Shaozeng, the commander of Ha'er.

Zhuang Jihua didn't know and didn't want to care about this, he saw that Duan Kunpeng still wanted to negotiate the price, so he glared at him and said sharply: "Shut up, at this time, there is no price to talk about military law." ”

Duan Kunpeng was helpless, and then Zhuang Jihua looked at the four people behind him, and looked at these four people as creepy, the regret in their hearts, they knew that the punishment was like this, they came out early, and after a while Zhuang Jihua said: "Although the three of them have violated military law, they dare to act, they are good men, I like it; What about you, dare not do it, belong to cowards, such people are not wanted by my troops. ”

After speaking, Zhuang Jihua announced loudly: "The four of them will each be paid ten yuan of severance pay and expelled from the barracks." ”

The soldiers were stunned, they didn't expect Zhuang Jihua to do what he said, and simply drove the four people out.

During the Republic of China, soldiers were forced to serve as soldiers, this last resort was mainly poverty, some people may say that to catch the strong men, in fact, at this time the local troops to catch the strong men are still very few, the strong men mainly occurred in the Anti-Japanese War and the civil war after that, because the army consumption is too large and too fast, relying on recruitment has been unable to meet the needs, the national political axe was forced to use this extreme method of recruiting new soldiers.

These soldiers of Xiong Kewu's army are mainly recruited, they are actually willing to be soldiers, in addition to fighting, at least they don't have to worry about eating, and it is impossible to return to Sichuan with ten oceans. Therefore, Zhuang Jihua's punishment was very severe.

The faces of the four of them were as pale as dirt, but they were helpless, and Song Yunfei next to them immediately took out forty pieces of ocean, stuffed ten pieces into each person's hand, and then tore off the badges on their shoulders and arms, and drove them out of the barracks.

In the end, Zhuang Jihua said to all the soldiers: "The leader has dealt with it, but you are also at fault, you are all veterans who know military discipline." My punishment for you is to stand in a military posture, and everyone stands... Correct! The whole company stood in a military posture for two hours. ”

"Zhuang Jihua, the leader of the reorganization team, was not strict in supervision and failed to discover the mistakes of his subordinates in time, which was negligence in his work, and he was punished for standing in a military posture for two hours. All punishments were supervised by adjutant Song Yunfei. ”

After Jiang Xianyun heard about the accident of the Third Company, when he rushed to the Third Company, all the personnel of the Third Company, including Zheng Jiemin and others, were honestly standing in a military posture on the barn field.
