The next day, Qin Bing led dozens of soldiers to continue on the road, and in the afternoon, he finally arrived at Ginkgo Town.

Ginkgo, like all the towns of the post-apocalyptic era, is dilapidated, with few decent houses, most of them plastic sheds made of bamboo poles, and inside are filthy homeless people, scavengers, and refugees.

Upon learning of the arrival of Qin Bing's imperial troops, the town lord of Ginkgo Town hurriedly came to greet him with a few guards.

There were tens of thousands of residents in Ginkgo Town, but recently heard that the Black Shark Legion was defeated on the front line, and the zombie frenzy was about to sweep in. The residents of Ginkgo Town were able to escape, and they basically escaped.

The town lord was extremely surprised by Qin Bing's arrival, and his attitude towards Qin Bing was almost sycophant, and he quickly completed the defense handover procedures. From now on, the defense of Ginkgo Town will be under the responsibility of Qin Bing, and they have the right to transfer any personnel and materials in wartime.

"Master Qianfu, fellow Imperial warriors, you have worked hard all the way. I've told the only tavern owner in town to prepare a meal, so please come with me to the tavern first! ”

"Don't worry, the town lord, you take us to the town first, I want to understand the situation here as soon as possible, and arrange the defense deployment first."

"Hehe, okay, don't call me the town lord, my name is Hu Bennan, you can just call me Lao Hu."

This town lord named Hu Bennan quickly took Qin Bing and them to inspect the town.

The town is only lined with two main thoroughfares, but other than that, there are ordinary houses and plastic sheds. It is home to more than 3,000 residents, as well as more than 4,000 homeless, scavengers and outsiders. As for the defensive forces, there is basically no defensive force here, and Hu Bennan only has a few private soldiers, at most he can maintain daily law and order.

However, there is a mercenary force of more than 20 people in the town.

The name of this mercenary is called Wolves, and the leader is a man named Wild Wolf, but this mercenary is very well-equipped, and its combat effectiveness is not at all worse than that of the regular army of the Empire.

Qin Bing frowned and asked: "Lao Hu, this wolf pack mercenary, and there are so many homeless people and scavengers entrenched here in the town, and even zombies are about to attack, and many residents are reluctant to flee, what's going on?" ”

Lao Hu explained: "Report to the elder thousand, the wolf mercenaries are here to protect the herb dealers to receive their goods. As for many homeless people and outsiders entrenched here, it is because all kinds of rare herbs are abundant around Ginkgo Town, and drug dealers are stationed here all year round to receive goods, and the residents here basically rely on collecting medicine for a living. These people had no other survival skills, felt that leaving here would be starving, and thought that the zombie frenzy might not really hit here, so they didn't leave. ”

Qin Bing and Xiao Ke understood, no wonder the zombies were ready to attack, there would be so many people entrenched here in this Ginkgo Town.

Qin Bing instructed: "When it's time to eat, I want the mercenary captain Wild Wolf to come and see me in person." ”

Hu Bennan realized that Qin Bing wanted to temporarily requisition this wolf pack of mercenaries to strengthen the city defense force of Ginkgo Town.

He originally wanted to tell Qin Bing that the wild wolf would not accept the requisition, but he hesitated for a moment, and finally chose not to say much, and said honestly: "Yes, I will send someone to inform the wild wolf now, and ask him to wait and come to see you in person." ”

After inspecting the entire town, Qin Bing instructed a ten-captain to take his men to put up a guard outside the town.

Then, she took the other four teams and followed Lao Hu to the only tavern in the town to eat.

There was also a little hiccup on the way, and when passing through an alley, there were quite a few scavengers lying here.

Although these guys were shocked by the arrival of Qin Bing and these imperial soldiers, when someone saw Xiao Ke and the bags of dry food of these imperial soldiers, there were still hungry scavengers, pretending to accidentally bump into them, and then took the opportunity to reach out and want to steal the soldiers' dry food bags.

This eyeless scavenger, the target he chose to start with was Duan Canglong.

Duan Canglong is in this group of imperial soldiers, his physical strength is quite good, how can he let a scavenger succeed, he kicked the scavenger away with a single kick, and said coldly: "Take care of your hands, otherwise I don't guarantee that I can control my saber." ”

Hu Bennan was already carrying a leather whip at this time, and he slammed the whip towards the scavenger on the ground, causing the scavenger to roll and wail all over the ground, but Hu Bennan didn't have the slightest intention of stopping, and scolded viciously while slamming it: "Dare to steal from the imperial soldier, you are really becoming more and more lawless, today I will smoke your dog to death, I guess you will think that this Ginkgo Town is your territory." ”

Xiao Ke used to be a scavenger and a refugee, and when he saw that Hu Bennan really wanted to beat this homeless man to death, he said calmly: "It's okay." ”

Hu Bennan stopped when he heard this, and when he saw that Xiao Ke was wearing a set of ten-master uniforms, he immediately laughed and said, "Hehe, yes, yes, the chief said that if you spare this dog thing, we will spare him." ”

Soon, Qin Bing and Xiao Ke followed Hu Bennan to the only tavern in the town.

The tavern owner was a big, bloated man, with a beard, one-eyed, huge arms, and a taciturn voice, and his eyes occasionally flashed with a fierce light, which he knew at a glance that he was not to be provoked with. Of course, if it's easy to mess with, you won't be able to make a living in this Ginkgo Town.

The tavern owner's nickname is Wine Barrel, Hu Bennan walked into the tavern with Qin Bing and a group of imperial soldiers, and muttered loudly: "Wine Barrel, you dead fat man, are you ready for the wine and food I ordered you to prepare?" ”

"Meals for fifty people, five tables of meals, all ready."

"Very good, prepare another ten more meals, send them outside the town, and send them to the pair of soldiers standing guard on duty."

"Yes!"

Qin Bing sat at a table with Hu Bennan and Xiao Ke, and the other teams of soldiers sat at a table for each team. The dishes are very simple, braised beef with boiled beans, wild vegetable soup, but the only good thing is that the white rice tube is enough.

Qin Bing picked up the chopsticks and ordered, "Eat!" ”

Immediately, Xiao Ke and the other soldiers all picked up the dishes and chopsticks together, and ate with their heads buried in their heads.

This made Hu Bennan and the tavern owner and others look at each other, and they also realized that the group of imperial soldiers led by Qin Bing was a bit unusual.

Xiao Ke was eating, and suddenly noticed that a girl in tattered clothes slipped into the tavern while others were not paying attention. Although this girl was dirty, she couldn't completely hide the fact that she was a beautiful embryo, especially a pair of eyes, like a kitten, timidly looking at Xiao Ke and others who were devouring a meal, she was secretly swallowing saliva.

Xiao Ke was grabbing a large piece of braised beef and wanted to bite it, but he noticed that the girl was staring at him timidly, to be precise, staring at the braised beef in his hand.

This made Xiao Ke suddenly remember his sister who had starved to death, when he was wandering with his sister, whenever it was time to eat, his sister always gave her share for the first time, and then stared at him who was about to eat with this kind of gaze.

Xiao Ke's pain twitched, and the eyes of this little beggar-like girl softened, and she said to the little beggar, "Do you want to eat?" ”

The little beggar was stunned, then looked at her and saw that there was no one around her, and made sure that Xiao Ke was asking her, so she nodded again and again, and whispered, "I want to eat." ”

"Here you go!"

Xiao Ke handed the half-pound piece of braised beef in his hand to the little beggar, the little beggar was in disbelief at first, and then he had the courage to come over and take the piece of braised beef from Xiao Ke's hand, looking at her expression, as if in a dream.

And at this moment, three more people suddenly came in outside, all dressed in arms, with sabers and pistols on their bodies, and the collar of the leader was slightly open, and he could faintly see a tattoo of a vicious wolf on his chest, this person was the captain of the wolf pack mercenaries, the wild wolf.

The wild wolf came in, looked around the tavern scene, and then led two of his subordinates to stride towards the table of Xiao Ke and Qin Bing, and also pushed the little beggar in front of him savagely away.

The little girl was almost pushed down by the wolf, Xiao Ke stretched out his hand to hold it, the little girl had not fallen down, the little girl held the braised beef in her hand, and whispered to Xiao Ke: "Thank you, big brother!" ”

Xiao Ke: "It's okay, there's nothing for you here, go back and eat." ”

The little girl snorted, then turned away.

The wild wolf glanced at Xiao Ke and the little girl, but didn't say anything. His gaze finally fell on Qin Bing, because he could see at a glance that Qin Bing was wearing the clothes of a thousand commanders and was the supreme leader of this group of imperial warriors.

The wild wolf looked at Qin Bing: "I heard the town lord say, are you looking for me?" ”

Qin Bing frowned slightly, in fact, the imperial soldiers and mercenaries were hostile to each other, mainly because the imperial soldiers looked down on mercenaries and felt that mercenaries had no faith and fought for money, and they were scum; And the mercenaries feel that the Imperial Warriors are the lackeys of the upper echelons of the Empire, and they also look down on the Imperial Soldiers.

However, now that the situation is critical, Qin Bing still wants to be as patient as possible, trying to temporarily recruit this group of mercenaries for her use to strengthen the defense of Ginkgo Town.

She said calmly: "I am the commander of the Black Shark Legion, the zombies may soon attack here, I want to recruit you mercenaries to fight to protect Ginkgo Town, of course, you will receive the same salary as regular soldiers, if you die, you will receive the same pension as regular soldiers." ”

Hearing this, the wild wolf glanced at each other with his two subordinates, and then they both laughed, and then he sneered and said to Qin Bing: "Hehe, do you know what the commission of our wolf pack is?" We're going to look down on your little pay? ”

Qin Bing said coldly: "Then you mean to refuse my recruitment and not agree to defend Ginkgo Town with us?" ”

The wild wolf looked up and down on Qin Bingjiao's good figure, and said with a wicked smile: "It's okay if you want me to agree, unless you sleep with me personally, hahaha!" ”

Bang!

Xiao Ke slammed his fist on the table, then stood up and looked at the wolf angrily.

Duan Canglong and the other imperial soldiers on the scene also stood up one after another, angrily looking at the wolves, daring to insult the elder of the thousand masters, this mercenary captain was really arrogant.

Qin Bing raised his hand to signal Xiao Ke not to be impulsive, and only asked the wild wolf coldly: "That is not negotiable?" ”

"I said, when you sleep with me, when I will work for you with my brother, I don't have any other hobbies, just like a woman." After the wild wolf finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Xiao Ke viciously, because it was Xiao Ke who reacted the most fiercely just now, and Xiao Ke was not to be outdone, and looked at this guy angrily.

The wild wolf retracted his gaze, and then said to Qin Bing: "I've finished speaking, when have you thought about it, come to me again." ”

After speaking, the wild wolf left with two of his subordinates, and when he passed by Xiao Ke's side, he glanced at Xiao Ke with an unkind gaze, and then left.

The wolf came out of the tavern with two of his men, and suddenly saw the little beggar who was dirty but could not hide that he was a beautiful embryo in the corner of the street.

The wild wolf immediately remembered the scene where Xiao Ke gave the little beggar braised beef just now, and the corners of his mouth immediately smiled evilly, beckoned, and commanded the two subordinates behind him.
