Chapter 124: Shield
On the third day, the dog-day major returned with his small convoy again, and this time the guy no longer pretended to be bullshit, but piled up a smile on his face, and first handed us a fax stamped with the big seal of the Southern Military District.
"This is an appointment from His Excellency Commander Saroyev, please take your looks."
We were curious to take a look, and oh, that's kind of interesting.
Almost all of them have been promoted, I, pervert, Bangbang, Flying Dog and other backbones who have been working the front line all year round have been promoted by two levels, from trainee non-commissioned officers to sergeants (trainee non-commissioned officers are equivalent to the rank of corporal), and Brother Gang, military division, Long Fei, these chief officers are even more awesome, and they are directly promoted to lieutenant and second lieutenant, all of whom testify with the seal and signature of the Ministry of National Defense.
"Oh, the chief is so polite this time, there must be something important to discuss."
The military advisor still has a commercial expression that doesn't smile, obviously not welcoming this guy at all.
"Of course, after careful consideration, our chief feels that it is not easy for you to fight bravely and tenaciously to open up such a large territory for the Overseer army in the south, and if you hand it all in, it will be a little unsatisfactory, so we have decided that as long as you call out the town of Kohonde and its affiliated strongholds, the others will be your bases, and as compensation, the commander will also negotiate with the Ministry of Defense several times to give you the opportunity to be promoted, you must not waste it."
If we had to ask how we felt at the time, it would be "fuck you"!
Grandma's, we all rolled in the pile of dead people several times, and it was not easy to lay down the current territory, and we were sent away by two levels, and who didn't know that the arms in Kohonde Town were enough to arm two or three divisions, and it was a large stronghold in our hands that was second only to the iron depot.
"Oh, it turns out that the commander wants the Kohonde stronghold, why bother so much, this is just a matter of words for us, after all, we are all soldiers who have sworn allegiance to the government army, and soldiers should naturally take obedience to orders as their duty, and personal interests are insignificant."
The military advisor's righteous and awe-inspiring expression made us almost believe his nonsense.
"So, ...... so"
Major Garlic Nose immediately showed a look of anticipation, but unfortunately the next sentence of the military advisor made his little face turn green directly.
"It's just that the town of Kohonde belongs to the assets of the Blonya family, and the same is true of the weapons and equipment inside, in fact, the Blonya family has proposed to return it many times before, and we are in a difficult situation, since the southern army is willing to take over, it is the best, I believe that the commander will definitely be able to use these land arms to defend the country."
This little garlic-nosed major was completely panicked.
The power of the Blonna family is all over the Directory Army, and some people even joke that when Lord Blonna sneezed that day, the Directory Army had to tremble a few times from rifles to ocean-going warships, and the Southern Army, as the weakest link in the Directory, certainly did not have the courage to compete with such a huge force.
"Well, I'll tell the commander-in-chief about this, tell the commander-in-chief, and .......... right away."
Major Garlic Grunted and ran away with his men.
Xiaobei came up vigilantly and asked:
"Hey, big brother, are you really going to return the weapon to the Blonna family?"
"Thinking too much, who likes to give things back to that family full of elm heads and vampires, to scare and scare this waste."
"Phew, it's like some nouveau riche is a good thing."
"Of course they're good things, and I even think you can use 'good guys' as an adjective, and they're determined to reform and get rid of their evils, and they're better than the idiots who still stick to the rules of aristocracy in the new century."
"Bullshit, hypocrites can be taken seriously, that's what hell is called."
“…………”
The two of us went back and forth, and soon hormones rushed to the brain, and they almost quarreled again, and we had to separate them.
"But the military advisor, is this reliable, that dead imp from the Blonna family doesn't look like a good stubble." I took a moment to ask.
The military advisor frowned rarely, and his expression often meant that although he had already guessed the answer, the answer was completely out of his mind.
"As far as I know, the Blonna family is not a generous family, and even has a very stingy quality, in the old century, the previous head of the Bronia family once sent a private army to annihilate a warlord team of hundreds of people for the trivial matter of a dozen pistols not being paid, such a large batch of arms, they have no reason not to recover........... unless they are eyeing us, this batch of arms is an upfront investment."
"Wouldn't that be great, we also don't have to pay for the receipt to buy his old man's face." Brother Steel said with a big grin.
"Don't be too complacent, boss, since the era of the Old Kingdom, the Bloonya family has been the purest and most cold-blooded speculators, they not only talk about investment, but also about returns, if the benefits received are far lower than expected, they will never give up, even if they drag us to sell blood and cut organs and chop them up to make human meat buns, they will not hesitate to squeeze the last copper plate on us."
The military advisor's tone trembled slightly, obviously fearful and disgusted with this ancient family.
We were also chilled.
"Damn, if we don't do this, we can't do it, and all the arms territory will be returned to them!" Tintin said hurriedly.
"I'm sorry, it's not possible, we only have the right to be chosen, and not the right to choose, that's the style of the Blona family."
It's rare that Xiaobei didn't quarrel with the military advisor this time, but frowned deeply, but it was just a moment, if you didn't pay attention, it would be easy to be ignored.
In the afternoon, our boss of the White Turban Gang also came, bringing large bags and small bags of all kinds of treasures, as well as boxes of cash. Although we knew that bank transfer business was not used in the southern region, we were still shocked to see so many large bills.
"Excuse me, is this ..........?"
"Oh, of course it's a commission, it's all paid as promised," our boss smiled, "The other part is your opening fee, when will you go back to your hometown, we can give you a drink." ”
Look, look, not only the Southern Army, but even the local snakes have come to join in the fun, if it weren't for the different interest groups represented by these people, I would have thought they had been rehearsed in advance.
The military advisor happily accepted the money and treasure gifts as if he had accepted the letter of appointment before, and then smiled sincerely:
"Oh, this, of course we will retreat immediately, it should be in the last few days, after all, our hometown still has a lot of things to do, speaking of which, you are really a good place here, the scenery is beautiful, the people are simple, if you don't have a task, I really want to stay for a while."
Our dear boss's face turned pale with a "swish", and he quickly interjected:
"No, no, no, we are poor here, what is there to stay in, how can there be good conditions in the central area."
"Alas, the boss is still reasonable, it just so happens that the people of the Southern Army have come to us every day to hand over the territory, which has made us very annoying, and now we are finally freed, and the rest will be handed over to the brothers."
"Wait, what did you say, the Southern Army came?"
"That's right."
The boss's face changed again, and it became even more ugly than before, like a piece of spoiled pork.
As the saying goes, the people do not fight with the officials, and this is still an iron rule that applies in the new century. The White Turban Gang is very powerful, but after all, it is just a snake that runs rampant in the countryside, and it is not enough to compete with the powerful regular army, even the weakest southern army.
"Fuck, a bunch of dog mongrels, Lao Tzu spends millions of protection money every year to honor them, and the food supply is a dime, and now at a critical time, they all want to rub oil from Lao Tzu, and they also want to swallow Lao Tzu's territory, it's really not a thing for his grandmother........."
The boss scolded with an ugly face, but the military advisor still said sincerely:
"Boss, then we ........ about the withdrawal of troops"
"Hehe, hehehehe, don't talk about this first, don't talk about it first, you have a great contribution to the White Turban Gang, don't leave so casually, it's okay to play here for a few more days."
"But we still have a mission, and the cost of the garrison is ........."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, the documents will be sent directly to the helm, and we will reimburse them."
"Gee, that's embarrassing."
"Small, small, hahahaha."
After a goosebump-like greeting, the boss took his little brother into the car like a run, and ran out of the house, not knowing which high-level relationship he was looking for.
"Okay, big brother, I have to say, this round of wolf and tiger fighting is very beautiful, but this can't be delayed for too long, they will soon reach an agreement on the sharing of the spoils, and the hollow area left behind after the withdrawal of the hound group will still be a lot of trouble for us at that time." Xiaobei said with a frown.
"Spoils agreement?"
The military advisor turned to look at us, his dark eyes flashing with a playful light.
"Then get rid of their stolen money first, and see what else they can share."
