Chapter Twenty-Three: A Man Kills?
ps: It is said that the people of the historical military are united, and they are specially asking for votes to support the explosion of chrysanthemums ()!

The rivers are separated and the three towns belong to each other ().
If the city of Wuchang is defined as the political and military center of Hubei, then Hankou is the economic center, and Hanyang, across the river, is the industrial and manufacturing base.
In order to protect China's largest and most complete industrial base, Zhang Zhidong built a larger base here from the time of the new army, and as the eighth town gradually moved to Wuchang, which was more important, Hanyang became the 21st mixed training ground.
As one of the two infantry standards under the name of the 21 Mixed Association, the 42 standard was stationed not far from the gun factory.
Although the rain has thinned out a lot, the places around the 42nd Battalion School Yard where they can hide from the rain are still crowded with soldiers who have been transferred back from all over the place, some of them are smoking cigarettes, and some are dozing off.
There was a sturdy man in the middle of the soldiers, stripped naked to reveal his tendons and flesh, and danced a thirty-pound stone lock up and down, and the cheers next to him were even louder, and there were a few good things to bet on him, which made this man even more proud.
Next to the circle, Yue Peng, who was dressed in a clean official uniform and had a slightly thin figure, saw the stone lock flying, and shouted hello twice from time to time. Next to him, Zhang Wenjing, who graduated from Gaowubei Academy in the same year as him and is now the clerk of the 42nd standard, smiled when he saw this: "Brother Yue Peng is also interested in showing his hand?" ”
Yue Peng shook his head and smiled: "Why is Wen Jing sarcastic about me, you see me like this, can you dance the stone lock so chicly?" ”
Zhang Wenjing and Yue Peng are not only classmates, but also friends in the army, one of them is a secretary and the other is a second-class adjutant, standing together is naturally eye-catching, so he hurriedly pulled Yue Peng to the side and asked quietly: "Brother Yue, have you heard about what happened last night?" Do you think Lord Biaotong will come today? ”
Yue Peng twisted his eyebrows and looked at the camp gate in the hazy smoke and rain, and there was no answer in his heart, as an officer, even if he was no longer willing, he knew a little bit about what happened in Wuchang City last night, it is said that there were no less than 100 bullet casings on the street alone, which shows how nervous he was at that time, will he still come in this case?
"I don't know how much green smoke came out of the ancestral grave of the kid, and it has actually become our standard ()." Zhang Wenjing said with a smile: "I heard that he is only 22 years old today, and he has only been in the army for more than half a year. You say, why didn't you and I get this kind of good luck? ”
Zhang Wenjing was still unsatisfied, pointed to the strong man who played with the stone lock, clicked a few more times on the side of the puzzle club and the officer, and said with a wicked smile: "See?" It's all puffed out, and there will be a good show to watch in a while. ”
Yue Peng smiled and didn't speak, the army is a complicated place, it is both reasonable and unreasonable, many times a big fist is more convincing, and the most taboo in the army is to transfer a strange officer from the outside to lead, not to mention this group of veteran ruffians, even if he knows how to serve a new soldier.
"Hehe, Brother Yue, how many people do you say he will bring from the baggage camp to the town in a while?"
Yue Peng was just about to speak, when his eyes suddenly lit up: "He will come alone." ”
"Kill alone? Are you kidding. ”
"I'm never joking." The corners of Yue Peng's mouth hooked, looked at the camp gate and said, "Because he has already come!" As he spoke, Zhang Wenjing hurriedly turned his head, only to see a tall young man outside the camp gate, wearing a general's uniform and a command knife at his waist, carrying a small burden and walking in alone in the rain.
"Let's go, let's go to the conference room." Yue Peng pushed Zhang Wenjing, frowned, and said, "The courage is good, but it's a pity that I don't know." ”
Walking into the school grounds, Yang Qiu couldn't help but frown at the chaotic scene.
Before coming out, he temporarily rejected Xiao Anguo and Ma Kui's kindness to let him bring a few people to the town, so he came here alone, and now there are three battalions inside, plus miscellaneous servants and other personnel, a total of 1,733 officers and soldiers, as long as he crosses the camp gate, there are only two results.
Failure, success ()!
The identity of a soldier in the parallel world makes him know the truth of the army better than anyone else, and he also knows how difficult it is for a newcomer, and he is a person with no prestige and no record to lead a unit equivalent to a regiment.
Looking at the stone lock that was still flying, Yang Qiu smiled coldly, if it was in another field, maybe he would turn back directly, but this is the army!
Seeing Yang Qiu holding his head high and smiling into the barracks, the soldiers gathered around, opening their eyes wide to see clearly what kind of immortal this heavy soldier who came out overnight and was promoted to the fourth level in a row.
"He Xi in the first battalion, Chen Shanyou in the second battalion, and Guo Erxing in the third battalion have met Lord Biaotong." As soon as Yang Qiu stepped into the conference room, the pipe bands of the three battalions immediately stood at the door with the officers to greet him.
He Xi, the commander of the first battalion, was about thirty years old, with a big beard, and the corners of his mouth were not straightened after seeing Yang Qiu. Chen Shanyou is just the opposite, he is not tall, his body is also very thin, and he has no smile on his face, as for Guo Erxing of the third battalion, who has had a relationship, he sneered at Yang Qiu from the corner of his mouth and looked at Yang Qiu from the corner of his eye.
"It's all thorns." After Yang Qiu said secretly, he said with a smile: "I've kept you waiting for a long time." ”
"Lord Biaotong is polite, today's lord is going to work, this is what the lower officials should do." He Xi was full of smiles, but his eyes were looking out of the door, and Yang Qiu smiled when he saw this: "Lord He doesn't need to look at it, Lord Admiral sent me to take over as the standard, but he forgot to give me a horse guard." ”
"Huh."
Yang Qiu's words caused everyone to laugh, and even Yue Peng and Zhang Wenjing, who were sitting in the corner, glanced at each other, feeling that this new standard lord who was about the same age as them was at least good at talking.
"My lord, this is." He Xi was just about to introduce the officer, but was interrupted by Yang Qiu, put down the small bag he carried and said with a smile: "Let's go and meet the soldiers first, it's raining outside, so it's not good to make everyone wait for a long time." With that, he walked out.
Behind him, Zhang Wenjing and Yue Peng looked at each other, both a little surprised, but they didn't expect Yang Qiu to be so faceless ().
"Assemble, assemble."
Seeing that Yang Qiu had just entered the conference room and walked out with a few battalion commanders and officers, the junior officers who were waiting outside immediately began to shout at the soldiers to assemble, although the rain had thinned out a lot, but the muddy school yard and the dirty puddles with potholes that had soaked for most of the night still made many soldiers careless, and after the officers repeatedly urged, they lazily walked into the school field with guns on their backs.
This is the Hubei Mixed Association New Army, known as the First Army of the South Seas?
The lazy footsteps of the soldiers made Yang Qiu understand in his heart that this was not the new army known as China's modern army, but an army that was too lazy to deal with it because of the sudden arrival of a new commander.
"These are the 42 target brothers, right?" Seeing Yang Qiu walking towards the formation that was standing in line, He Xi and Chen Shanyou changed their looks, and the taste of sarcasm in the corners of their eyes began to rise, but Guo Erxing pursed his lips, and his eyes became more and more aggressive.
"Hello everyone, my name is Yang Qiu, and from today we will be shaving food in a rice bowl!" Looking at the loosely arranged formation, Yang Qiu frowned and said, "I will trouble everyone when I take office for the first time today. ”
"I'm not afraid of trouble, but I don't know if Lord Biaotong has brought two months' salary, are the brothers right?"
Before he finished speaking, a strange voice came out of the soldiers' formation, and the soldiers also laughed, Yang Qiu turned his head to see that it was the sturdy soldier who played the stone lock like a juggler just now, and smiled heartily, the play finally came.
"What do you mean by daring and thundering? The matter of military salaries is the concern of Lord Li and Lord Admiral, so what is the matter with Lord Guan Biaotong? Chen Shanyou put on a menacing appearance, and after scolding, he turned his head to Yang Qiu and said, "My lord, you don't need to care about these ruffians, you should teach him a hard lesson after a while." ”
"It doesn't matter." Yang Qiu waved his hand and beckoned to the soldier who spoke: "Come forward and speak ()." ”
The sturdy soldier thought that he was going to punish himself, and he was still a little afraid in his heart, but seeing He Xi's eyes, and he had already boasted in public that he wanted to leave a deep memory for the new "baggage soldiers", so he stepped forward.
"Name, position."
"Lei Meng, the head of the 42nd standard law enforcement team."
Yang Qiu looked at this short and sturdy soldier, twenty-five or sixteen years old golden age, even if he put on clothes, he couldn't wrap his tendons and flesh, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and the corners of his mouth were cold and hard, he should be a veteran ruffian who had been in the army for several years.
"How much money do I owe you?"
"In two months, a total of 5 oceans." Thinking that someone was backing him, Lei Meng was not afraid of Yang Qiu, who was "tall and sven" in front of him, and hummed: "You officials have all got it, but you owe us for it!" ”
"I have heard about the arrears, so when I went to see the Governor last night, I suggested that the wages should be paid as soon as possible, and fortunately I was allowed to raise 10,000 oceans for me to bring." The corners of Yang Qiu's mouth hooked, and Si Tiao took out the silver ticket sent by Ruicheng yesterday from his arms, and shouted: "Who cares about logistics and pay?" ”
"Zhang Wenjing, the secretary of the 42nd standard, see my lord."
"Take it, send it down after morning exercises, a total of 10,000 oceans."
Hearing that there were 10,000 oceans in the box, all the soldiers who were full of resentment just now were blown up, and He Xi and the others behind him didn't expect that Yang Qiu would actually bring such a big gift bag.
Guo Erxing's heart also sank, he knew best who gave this ten thousand oceans, but he didn't expect Yang Qiu to pay out of his own pocket to settle the arrears.
Lei Meng was even more dumbfounded, he thought he was the best excuse but he didn't expect it to be so easily resolved, so he simply gritted his teeth and said: "I waited for the army to carry a gun to defend the country, practiced every day, and learned how to kill the enemy before the battle, not luck!" There are three battalion commanders here, and there are so many officers, why should we let an outsider take care of us, I don't accept ()! ”
"Practice every day, you deserve it!"
As soon as Lei Meng finished speaking, Yang Qiu suddenly walked to the front of the formation, pointed to the crooked queue, and shouted: "If you can't do it, you can't do it, you can't stand it upright, this is the result of daily practice?" His words were tantamount to scolding everyone, which immediately caused a burst of restlessness among the soldiers, and Yue Peng also scratched his head secretly, as if he felt that the last few sentences were a bit excessive.
But Yang Qiu didn't care, he just wanted to leave a deep and unforgettable impression on these guys today! So after finishing speaking, he turned his head and walked in front of Lei Meng, and said coldly: "Yes, I know what you're thinking, you're thinking that I'm just a baggage soldier of Lama, and it depends on luck that I can be promoted, if I am asked to bring 42 bids, everyone will die on the battlefield in the future, right?" ”
"But I'm telling you now, it's not that I look down on you, it's that what you learned before was just a child's trick!"
"My lord, it's okay for you to scold me, but don't insult me!" Lei Meng was originally a tendon, and when he heard it, he immediately jumped up and shouted: "I'm waiting to practice the way of killing the enemy, what's wrong!" ”
"Kill? Ha ha. ”
Yang Qiu laughed arrogantly, and then unexpectedly hooked his finger towards Lei: "You are also worthy of talking about killing the enemy?" Have you ever been on the battlefield? Have you ever experienced life and death? Do you know what a bullet smells like when it hits you?
"Not convinced? Very good! Since you can take the lead today, it means that they believe you can give me a dismount? Come! Yang Qiu raised his eyebrows, pointed to the military formation, and proudly glanced at the audience: "One-on-one, whether it is you or anyone here, as long as you win against me, the baggage soldier who pulls the carriage in your eyes, I will immediately apologize to you, and never step into the 42nd standard camp for half a step!"
On the contrary, you will be obedient to me from now on! ”
Yue Peng's face changed abruptly, he was too arrogant!
