Chapter 4: Roommates

The Tiger Battalion is one of the three main battalions stationed in Toyosu.

In August, Dong Bacheng loved to defeat Xiao Yong's two battalions of the Hedong Army in the south of Feng'an City, and Xiao Jiu and Xiao Demon were taken prisoner together. Both sides suffered heavy losses in that battle. Therefore, soon after the war, the 300 captured Hedong sergeants were forcibly incorporated into the Tiande Right Army. Later, Yang Hao reformed the military system, the establishment of the Tiande Right Army was revoked, and the non-commissioned officers of the department were organized into four battalions: Tiger, Leopard, Jinfeng, and Tiedang.

The Tiger Battalion was originally stationed in Feng'an, and was later transferred to Fengzhou with the Iron Bell Battalion. Xiao Jiu also came and went, from an ordinary soldier to Lao Huo, Lao Huo was second only to the gang leader, and he was also a number one person in the gang.

"General Yang is a person who does great things, otherwise how can people like us be reused?" This is a mantra that Xiao Jiu often hangs on his lips. But since returning from a meeting at the outpost last night, he has become reticent.

Last night's meeting was presided over by the second sentinel. Two days before the outpost was taken away by the Chincha guards, and no one has been seen since, some say that he was condemned as a remnant of the royal party, and he was beheaded on the spot. Some people say that he was thrown into the Toyosu prison pending trial and conviction.

Since the Qincha Guards were stationed in the Tiger Camp for rectification, three of the five sentry commanders in the battalion have disappeared in the past few days, and only the second sentry commander, He Yu, was confirmed to have been beaten to death because he refused to cooperate with the Qincha Guards' rectification.

Zhang Yu, the deputy of the three sentinels and three teams, is He Lao's wife and brother, and after He Umbrella was beheaded, Zhang Yu was asked to collect the body. Huang Man of the Qincha Guards warned Zhang Yu that if he dared to show the slightest hint of his mouth, his head would immediately fall to the ground. Zhang Yu was timid and didn't dare to say a word, but his sister and He Umbrella's wife shook out the cause of He Umbrella's death during the funeral.

Zhang Yu also disappeared that night, and the next day his head was hung on the flagpole in front of the camp gate, accused of colluding with the Wang Party and attempting to rebel.

"What's wrong with Brother Jiu?" The little demon took a roasted potato, broke it in half and handed it to Xiao Jiu.

"Why don't you eat it?" Xiao Jiu took the potato and took care of himself in a daze, and didn't eat a bite.

"I don't have an appetite, you can eat it yourself." The little demon took the potato, looked left and right, and whispered to Xiao Jiu: "There will be a river of blood over there." Tu Ne asked the brothers below to expose each other, saying that there was credible information that there were at least three adults in their outpost who were in the royal party. He also said that if the royal party is not killed for a day, no one will be able to get out of it. Alas, they are all brothers who eat in a pot, who can bear to expose them with a clear conscience. If you don't do that, no one will be able to pass the test. Tu Nie also said that if any gang does not find out the three royal parties within three days, the gang leader and the old gang will be arrested. How can you make that sense? There are three royal parties in each gang? How is that possible? ”

"Alas-" Xiao Jiu sighed and hugged his head in pain.

"Brother Jiu, what's wrong with you?" The little demon was a little flustered.

"Lao Jiu, come over here." The gang leader Ban Qing beckoned to Xiao Jiu on the school field.

Xiao Jiu stood up and patted the dust on his body, and followed Ban Qing towards the grove by the school grounds. Looking at the mysterious appearance of the two, the little demon was very surprised, knowing that it was taboo to eavesdrop on the gang leader and Lao Huo, but he still followed.

"What do they say?" As soon as he entered the woods, Xiao Jiu asked urgently.

"They also have this mind, rather than being killed by them, it's better to fuck it back!" Ban Qing gritted his teeth and said.

"Damn, it's the other way around." Xiao Jiuyi punched the trunk of the tree.

"I inquired, and Yongfeng let General Zhang suppress it. After the rebellion leaves the camp, we will vote for General Zhang. As Ban Qing spoke, he suddenly lost his eyes at Xiao Jiu, and Xiao Jiu suddenly understood.

"Why is it hot this year, you say? It's all the moon, and you don't need to cover the quilt when you sleep at night. Ban Qing suddenly said something inexplicable, and then pounced on a bush beside him.

"Don't hit Big Brother, it's me, little demon." The little demon was punched by Ban Qing in the face, and grinned in pain.

"Why are you here?" Xiao Jiu was very surprised.

"I ...... I'd like to hear what you're talking about. The little demon said tremblingly.

"Hmph, since you've heard everything, you can go and report us to the Chincha Guard now. With this credit, no one will say that you are a king anymore. Not only did he save his life, but I am afraid he could also be promoted and make a fortune. ”

"Big brother, ninth brother, is my little demon such a person? I can swear to heaven that if I tell what I hear, I will not die a good death. ”

"Big brother, he is my good brother for many years, and he will not betray us."

Ban Qing snorted, patted the little demon's shoulder and said, "I believe in you." Come with us. ”

――――――

On the first watch, there was tension in the huts of the three groups of the first and second teams of the Tiger Battalion, and everyone was checking their weapons and belongings. The inspection team has already come to check the house, and according to the usual practice, there will be no outsiders before dawn.

"Are you all ready?" Gang leader Li Hong asked in a deep voice.

"Alright." Everyone replied in unison, with a hint of grief and indignation in their voices. The whole group of ten people has been arrested and four royal parties, but the above is still not satisfied, and they still want to continue to dig deeper.

"If you dig any more fucking digging, you're all done. What do you say to do? Gang leader Li Hong asked, and everyone replied in unison: "It's against the damn!" ”

Six people are ready to stop, and there are still six people like them in the Tiger Camp. On the second watch, someone would give a signal outside, and at that time, everyone would work together, first rush into the residence of the Qincha Guard, slaughter these murderous beasts, rescue the imprisoned companions, and then set him on fire and go out of Fengzhou City.

"What time is it?" Li Hong looked at the sky and asked Zhang Wenqiu, the old fire next to him.

"It's almost the second shift." As soon as Zhang Wenqiu finished speaking, there was a sound of bamboo tubes beating outside.

"It's been the second ......"

"What's going on?"

"Why didn't anyone send a signal?"

……

There was a panic in the shack, and Li Hong's heart suddenly tightened: Could it be that the matter leaked out?

"Da da da ......" The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and there was tension in the shack.

"No one is allowed to do anything without my orders." Li Hong shouted in a deep voice, while unbuckling his belt, taking off his armor, and making it look like he had just gotten up to greet him.

Zhang Wenqiu grabbed him and said earnestly: "Big brother can't go!" And they all raised their voices to stop them. Li Hong broke Zhang Wenqiu's hand and said: "I can't help but go, you listen, if I can't come back after a stick of incense, you can go to the sentry chief to report that I am the king's party, and push all the faults on me!" ”

With that, Li Hong suddenly pushed Zhang Wenqiu's hand away and walked out of the shack.

A herald came on horseback, took the order flag and said: "Li Hong, the leader of the three groups of the second team, and Zhang Wenqiu, the old fire, will immediately go to the outpost on business. ”

"Dare to ask what's your business?"

"You'll know when you go." After the herald finished speaking, he drove his horse away.

――――――――― "Ah! The red soldering iron pressed on the little demon's chest, and a burnt smell of flesh instantly diffused throughout the torture room.

"Those who know each other have recruited earlier, and only three of these thirteen torture tools have been used." Huang Man, a brocade-clothed guard stationed in the Tiger Camp by the Qincha Guards, spoke in a sharp and thin voice. The three teams standing beside him, Zheng Wang Qun, only felt disgusted when he heard it.

"I don't know anything, what do you want me to recruit?" The little demon's face has been beaten to the point that he has lost his human form, and these words are extremely difficult to say.

"Pretend, you continue to pretend to me. I'm telling you, you can't hide that little from me. Counting on them to save you is wishful thinking. ”

"No one is going to save me, I, I'm wronged."

"Come on, give this toast master who doesn't eat and drink, and get something new." Huang Man picked up the tea bowl, blew off the floating skin, took a sip, and looked at Wang Qun, who was standing straight, and a strange smile appeared on his thin face: "Wang Team, this Yao Guang, I remember that it was a pawn from Hedong, right?" You guys check and check, why don't such suspicious people check? ”

"Thirty percent of the brothers in the tiger camp are all soldiers from Hedong, do you mean that everyone wants to investigate?"

"Before the matter is clarified, anyone can be a remnant of the royal party!" Huang Man glared, pointed at the little demon's scream and shouted, "If it weren't for God's eyes, let my people hear him say the opposite, and hold him, tonight, you and my heads would have moved long ago!" ”

Wang Qun sneered: "I don't know what Yao Guang said to make the upper cha hear?" ”

"Isn't 'rebellion' a counterword?" Huang Man's eyes were originally more white and less black, but at this time, he looked even more white.

Wang Qun snorted coldly, turned around and walked out.

"Where is Team Wang going?" Huang Man was extremely angry at Wang Qun's disrespect to him. But this person is the person Zeng Chongyang named to protect, and he is helpless.

"Lao Tzu is going to kill people!" Wang Qun roared in a low voice and slammed the door out.

"Kill!" As soon as Wang Qun went out on the front foot, there was a sound of killing in the camp.

"What's going on?!" Huang Man was stiffened by Wang Qun, and he was angry in his heart, and he immediately roared when he heard the sound of killing outside.

"Go on a bad day." The sentry commander Tu Ne led a team of people into the torture chamber in a panic.

"What's the panic?" Huang Man scolded angrily.

"Oh, that's amazing. The remnants of the royal party have rebelled. "Tu Ni is Huang Man's most loyal follower, and he kills the most people in order to be motivated.

"Sure enough, there was a rebellion, I said a long time ago that there would be a rebellion. Haha, don't panic, your chance to make meritorious service has come. Huang Man grabbed Tu Ni's shoulder and shook it desperately, "Quickly take your soldiers to quell the chaos, I will ask for credit for you." ”

"It's late, it's all a mess now, what a mess." Tu Nie hurriedly commanded a few entourages, "Quick, take the errand quickly." ”

"Let go of me! You stupid pigs, I'm going to put down the rebellion! I'm on an errand, I'm afraid of ...... anyone" Let Huang Man cry and make trouble, and the entourage will take him away with both soft and hard measures.

"My lord, what should he do?" An attendant asked, pointing to the little demon on the torture rack.

"Alas, be forgiving. No one in the world is as stupid as I am, and I killed myself. Tu Nirvana thumped his chest and felt remorseful.

――――――

The news of the Tiger Battalion's rebellion soon reached Zeng Chongyang's ears, at this time he was sitting in Fengzhou Thorn Mansion, supervising the purge of the Fengzhou City garrison, Feng'an's purge has begun, and in three days, more than 300 Wang Dang have been found in each battalion in Feng'an, and 120 chief evildoers have been corrected.

But someone in the Fengzhou garrison dared to defy his own orders, if he didn't kill this demonic spirit, wouldn't it be against the sky!?

"The remnants of the royal party will not be willing to ambush them, they will definitely secretly fan the evil wind and make some trouble. In this regard, one must not be afraid, and the other must be prepared. These are the words of Zeng Chongyang when he summoned the officers above the sentry chief of the Fengzhou garrison. The rebellion was expected by him, so when someone reported to him that the Tiger Battalion had rebelled, Zeng Chongyang was not too surprised, and he immediately ordered the Poyu Battalion and the Fengzhou Battalion to send troops to quell the rebellion.

The Broken Camp was formed by the ghost army team recruited by Meng Bochang; The Fengzhou battalion is a garrison army, and its combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of the 12th battalion of the regular army, and its team is hundreds of wounded soldiers left behind. There is nothing to do with the two battalions and the Tiger Battalion, and it is far more suitable to use them to deal with the Tiger Battalion than the Leopard Battalion and the Golden Wind Battalion, which are more combative.
