When Xiao Ke returned to the deserter team, the guys around him laughed and laughed, this kid dared to bribe the Valkyrie, did he really suffer?

Xiao Ke was very depressed, he didn't want to bury his life in a daze because he picked up a set of clothes to wear.

The fate of the deserters, whether they are sent to the mine to mine day and night, or sent to the front line as cannon fodder to fight zombies, will not live for a month.

However, in the face of Qin Bing, the female commander who escorted them to trial.

In addition to her high military strength and high intelligence, she is also upright and does not accept curry favor and bribes.

Xiao Ke is helpless now, so he can only honestly accept the fate of this pit man, follow these deserters on the road, and go to the base of the Black Shark Legion to be judged.

However, what Xiao Ke didn't expect was that things would soon take a turn for the better.

When they were still fifty kilometers away from the base of the Black Shark Legion, suddenly several dusty armed off-road vehicles came on the road in front of them, and the off-road vehicles flew with the banner of the Black Shark Legion.

When Qin Bing saw several armed off-road vehicles raising dust in the distance, he immediately reined in his hips, raised his right fist, and motioned for Xiao Ke and dozens of other deserters behind him to stop.

Several armed off-road vehicles were obviously on the way, and when they saw Qin Bing and the pair of deserters behind Qin Bing, they didn't slow down, and directly roared past them.

Qin Bing frowned, because according to the rules, when the imperial team met outside, the two sides had to give a simple greeting and exchange military salutes. These armed off-road vehicles looked unusually hurried, as if something big had happened.

Could it be that the zombie frenzy has entered the Drinking Horse Plain and is about to approach Vermilion Bird City, the capital of the southern provinces?

Suzaku City is one of the five megacities of the empire and the largest city in the southern provinces, with a population of 50 million.

If the zombie frenzy invades Suzaku City and Suzaku City falls, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Just when Qin Bing was worried about the battle situation on the front line, suddenly, the few armed off-road vehicles that had been whistling past actually stopped, and slowly retreated, backwards.

Qin Bing also stepped forward and soon gathered with several armed off-road vehicles.

On several armed off-road vehicles, more than a dozen high-ranking soldiers of the empire came down one after another, led by the deputy commander of the Black Shark Legion, the captain of the Ten Thousand Commanders, Bai Longyin.

Bai Longyin is only in his thirties this year, he was born in the Imperial Scholar Clan, he has joined the army since he was a child, and now he is a captain of ten thousand people, and he is also one of the two deputy military masters of the Black Shark Legion, and he is a shining new star in the empire.

Qin Bing was also taken aback when he saw Bai Longyin, and hurriedly dismounted, his waist straightened, and he made an unusually standard military salute: "Qin Bing, the commander of the Black Shark Legion, has seen the deputy military master!" ”

Bai Longyin also gave a standard military salute, then looked at Qin Bing and the dozens of deserters not far away, and asked, "Qin Bing, what are you doing?" ”

Qin Bing: "Report to the sir, the number of deserters in the Black Shark Legion has increased recently, and the military master has ordered me to arrest the deserters and severely punish a group of deserters to set an example." ”

Bai Long Yin: "The military master led the 50,000 soldiers of the Black Shark Legion to intercept the zombie frenzy on the front line and failed, the military master has been killed in battle, and the 50,000 soldiers are dead and scattered, this zombie frenzy formed by hundreds of thousands of zombies has entered the Drinking Horse Plain and is heading straight for Vermilion Bird City, and the situation is already very critical." ”

Qin Bing lost his voice: "What, the army master died in battle, and the tens of thousands of soldiers of the Black Shark Legion were also defeated." ”

Bai Longyin nodded: "Now I have taken over the Black Shark Legion, collected the defeated troops, contacted the soldiers of the nearby strongholds, regrouped, and intercepted the upcoming zombie frenzy." Qin Bing, what about the soldiers under your command? ”

Qin Bing: "More than half of my subordinates have died in the battle some time ago, and my establishment was canceled a few days ago, and the remaining subordinates were integrated into other units. It is precisely because I am now a bare-pole commander that the military master did not lead me to intercept the zombie frenzy, but gave me such a mission to hunt down deserters. ”

Bai Long Yin: "Your strength is also among the best in the Black Shark Legion, and it is useless to hunt down deserters. Plus, now that the Warlord is dead, it's up to me to regroup and continue to stop the zombie frenzy. Now when it comes to employing people, you don't want to hunt down any deserters, I'll give you another task. ”

Qin Bing: "Sir, what is the task?" ”

Bai Longyin: "About 90 kilometers to the south, there is a place called Ginkgo Town, which is also one of the paths for the zombie frenzy to attack Vermilion Bird City, and now there is no defense force there. I think you led the crowd to guard the town, not as a last resort, and you can't let any zombies pass by. ”

Qin Bing hurriedly said: "Sir, I am now the commander of the light pole, and I don't have a single soldier under my command, how can I guard Ginkgo Town?" ”

Bai Longyin turned his head to look at Xiao Ke's group of deserters not far away: "Those are not soldiers?" ”

Qin Bing: "They are deserters!" ”

"Deserters are also soldiers, and commanding deserters to fight can better see your command ability." After Bai Longyin finished speaking, he added: "Qin Bing, the military master died on the front line, and the tens of thousands of main soldiers of the Black Shark Legion are gone, and it is impossible to replenish you with so many excellent soldiers." We now have to use all the power we can use to make it possible to delay the speed of the zombie frenzy attack before the imperial reinforcements arrive, and prevent Vermilion Bird City from being attacked by the zombie frenzy, do you understand? ”

Qin Bing had already realized the severity of the current situation, and she nodded: "The subordinates understand, the subordinates receive orders, so they will lead them to Ginkgo Town to defend it." As long as his subordinates are alive, they will not let any zombies pass through Ginkgo Town. ”

Bai Longyin nodded: "Very good, based on your current situation, I will give you the greatest privilege." You have the right to requisition any villager, outcast, scavenger, deserter, mercenary in the Ginkgo area to fight for you. And in your establishment team, you have the right to appoint and dismiss. ”

As Bai Longyin spoke, he asked his subordinates to bring a stack of appointment letters that had been signed and stamped with his name, all centurions and ten-division commanders, but the name of the soldier in the appointment letter was blank to be filled.

This means that among Qin Bing's 1,000 subordinate soldiers, Qin Bing has the right to directly appoint and remove the positions of the warriors, and the empire recognizes them.

Bai Longyin said to Qin Bing: "This is the only support I can give you, come on, my warriors!" ”

After Bai Longyin gave Qin Bing this difficult task, he drove away in a hurry with his subordinates.

The front line has been lost, and the zombie frenzy has rapidly approached from the Drinking Horse Plain towards Suzaku City.

White Dragon Yin has to race against time to regroup, organize combat forces, slow down the pace of zombies, and wait for the arrival of imperial reinforcements.

As soon as Bai Longyin and his entourage left, dozens of deserters around Xiao Ke exploded, and they all said in horror: "Oh my God, you want us to go to the front line to die, even the army master has been killed, and the main force of tens of thousands of Black Shark warriors has been destroyed." What can we deserters do, we just want to send us to death! ”

"I don't want to die, I don't want to go, I'd rather go back to be judged, I'd rather be thrown into the mine and mine until I die, and I don't want to face those horrible zombies."

"Me too, I'm not going either!"

"No, none of us go!"

These deserters were originally because they were greedy for life and afraid of death, so they became deserters, and now they are asked to go to the front line to die, but they really refuse to go.

Only Xiao Ke's face was full of hesitation, he had already noticed the stack of appointment letters that Bai Longyin had given to Qin Bing just now.

It's a real letter of appointment, and even a centurion's letter of appointment.

If he can get a letter of appointment, then he can go from being a refugee in the apocalyptic era to an imperial centurion. Not only can he become a soldier from a refugee, but he can also directly become a mainstay member of the army.

You must know that since the beginning of the apocalyptic era, the empire has attached great importance to military merits, whether it is a family of the upper class, a nobleman, a child of a poor family, or a pariah of the lower society, a scavenger, and a refugee from the lower society, the best way to advance is to join the army and make meritorious contributions.

However, in general, the imperial recruitment is very strict, and many people who want to join the army cannot do so, and even if they do, it is difficult to be promoted.

However, once promoted to the rank of centurion, the status will change dramatically.

Qin Bing had already regained her indifferent expression at this time, she looked around at the group of deserters around her, and said coldly: "Now in an extraordinary period, I have been ordered to go to Ginkgo Town to defend it, and you will also go with me, who has any objections?" ”

A big man with a beard stood up and said loudly: "I, I don't want to die with you, I want to be tried at the Black Shark Legion base, I want to be sent to the mine to mine, I don't want to fight those terrible zombies......"

Before he finished speaking, suddenly with a flash of sword, his head had already been cut off by Qin Bing, and the pillar of blood rose to the sky, and then the headless corpse fell down in a daze.

When the people around saw this, all of them were silent.

Qin Bing was holding a stack of appointment letters in his left hand, a sharp saber in his right hand, and his pretty face was frosty: "Follow me to defend Ginkgo Town, not only will I be exempted from the punishment of desertion, but I will also have a chance to be promoted." Refusing to obey my call, he disobeyed his commander's orders during the war, and was beheaded. How are you going to choose, tell me one by one. ”

Deserters, you look at me, I look at you, and none of them squeak.

They didn't want to fight the zombies, but they didn't dare to say no, lest they follow in the footsteps of the bearded man on the ground.

Qin Bing was also anxious in her heart, although she rewarded with one hand and punished severely with the other, she applied both soft and hard, and both pronged.

But if all these deserters refuse to give in, then will she be able to kill them all?

Killing won't help!

Just when Qin Bing was anxiously hoping that someone would be able to stand up and take the lead in agreeing to go with her to defend Ginkgo Town.

Suddenly, a slender warrior came out of the crowd and said in a deep voice, "I want to be a centurion, and I want to go with you, sir." ”

This person is Xiao Ke.

Qin Bing was ecstatic when he saw that someone had finally taken the lead, and immediately took out a letter of appointment for the Commander of the Ten Masters without hesitation, asked Xiao Ke's name on the spot, and then solemnly filled in Xiao Ke's name in the blank space of the name of the appointment letter, and then handed the appointment letter to Xiao Ke: "Very good, based on your brave decision, as a reward, I now appoint you as the Commander of the Ten." ”

Xiao Ke was overjoyed when he heard this, as far as he knew, generally only veterans who had been in the army for more than two years had the opportunity to be promoted to the rank of ten commanders (except in wartime). He didn't expect that it would be so easy to become the position that many soldiers dream of, and he was pleasantly surprised to learn the way Qin Bing saluted Bai Longyin just now, and snapped a military salute: "Yes, sir!" ”

With Xiao Ke taking the lead, and seeing that Xiao Ke was promoted to the rank of Tenth Master on the spot, the other deserters were envious, and refused to go to the battlefield, everyone also saw it just now, so the rest of the deserters shouted one after another: "Master Qianfu, we are all willing to follow you, go to the battlefield with you, and intercept those damn zombies." ”
