Section 26: Dismissal
During the argument, Iron Slag leaned back on the sofa with his head down, his hands on his chest, and listened to them in silence. He said that because of his neutral attitude as the head of the regiment, the controversy became more and more intense, and each of them insisted on their own views. In fact, he already had an idea in his heart. The reason why he hasn't said anything yet is because he wants to hear more about other people's opinions before making a decision.
Jerome and Bai Xiaoyun have their own opinions, but the level of concern is different. And the difference between them mainly lies in the asymmetry of the amount of information. In general, Jerome's point is correct. Most people on a team can't have strong beliefs, and the bigger the team, the more so. Therefore, the cohesion of the team depends on the common interests, the camaraderie of fighting side by side, and the art of the leader to control the team.
However, the reason why Bai Xiaoyun put forward such a point of view is because he knows the ultimate purpose of iron slag. One day, the Wolf Legion will face the problem of transformation. From this point of view, the concerns are different. Those players who don't have real beliefs will definitely run away overnight.
Iron Slag also believed that if one day, he wanted his team to help him light the flame, and it was estimated that by that time, the two resigned Marines would escape faster than rabbits.
Just when everyone was fighting and the volume was getting higher and higher, Iron Slag stood up. Suddenly, the crowd stopped arguing and looked at their leader.
Iron Slag glanced at everyone, and said in a firm tone, "Let them go!" The Wolf Legion doesn't need this kind of weak-willed, wavering team member. ā
"But......" Jerome stood up, his expression reluctant to speak.
Iron Slag raised his hand, motioned for the staff officer to sit down, and then continued: "However, it is not they who resigned to us, but we fired them. ā
"Commander, if they resign on their own initiative, they will give up this month's salary, but if we dismiss them, we will have to pay an additional three months' salary." Qin Ke'er reminded.
"If we dismiss them, their reputation in the Academy Alliance will deteriorate, this is the price for them to escape, and ......" Halfway through speaking, Iron Slag took out Mu Yuqin's star stone black/card, threw it on the coffee table, and continued: "I don't lack this bit of gold coins. ā
Without waiting for everyone to mention yƬ again, the iron slag drank in a deep voice: "Wang Hu! ā
"In!" Wang Hu stood up abruptly and replied loudly.
"Immediately gather all the team members, disarm the two in public, and then expel them from the wolf legion, never be hired!" Iron Slag said loudly.
"Yes!" Wang Hu straightened his waist, gave a military salute to the iron slag, and then left the rest area.
"Commander, ...... we do this" After Wang Hu left, Marven asked cautiously, "Will it chill the other team members?" ā
"Those who want to go, let them go early. I am sure that they will regret it in the future. Tie Slag said confidently, "Since I can ask Assistant Qin and the Secretary General to come over to help me, I am not afraid of these little nobles, and naturally there will be no shortage of manpower." If it really doesn't work, I'll go to the Goddess Guard and the Temple Guard to poach people......" He said this to Jerome, Marven, and Marcus, in order to give them enough confidence. After all, the three of them are different from Wang Hu, Porcupine, Match, Tuoba San, Bai Xiaoyun, and Ju Amu, and they are also different from Qin Ke'er and Mu Qianhe.
As Iron Slag expected, as soon as the words fell, Jerome, Marven and Marcus all showed relieved expressions.
A moment later, Wang Hu gathered all the team members in the open space in front of the tent. Then, the core layer of the wolf clan legion left the rest area one after another and came behind Wang Hu. At this moment, under the starry sky, several braziers were erected around the clearing. The orange-red fire reflected on everyone's faces, suddenly bright, sometimes dim......
With the arrival of the core layer of the team, the atmosphere of the scene became more and more solemn. It was as if on the eve of a major war, and the flames of war were about to break out. At this time, Wang Hutie blushed and glanced at the marines lined up in a phalanx without saying a word. Anyone who came into contact with his gaze felt a tremendous amount of pressure.
In the silence, Wang Hu suddenly burst into a loud shout and ordered the two marines who had just asked him to resign to immediately come out of the ranks.
The two marines suddenly trembled in their hearts and involuntarily glanced at each other, until Wang Hu gave the order again, and they walked out of the queue tremblingly and came to the front of the team. Immediately afterwards, Wang Hu gave an order, and the four of them, Porcupine, Match, Tuoba San, and Marcus, strode forward, crossed the crowd, and then grabbed the two marines on the left and right, and disarmed them on the spot.
"Old ...... Top dog...... How to ...... "I...... We...... Not...... Didn't make a mistake...... "In the face of this sudden change, the two marines were shocked into a cold sweat, and they thought that Wang Hu was going to execute them on the spot, and they couldn't even speak.
"From today onwards, you are no longer a member of the Wolf Legion, and after settling three months' wages, you can leave." Wang Hu shouted unceremoniously, and then made a "catch flies" gesture. Immediately afterwards, Qin Ke'er, who was standing in the rear, came out of the crowd, and with a look of disdain, threw the two money bags he had prepared at the two marines. The latter two took the money bag, looked at the head of the regiment who was standing behind with a complicated face, and then ran away without looking back, not even packing in the camp.
Seeing this ruthless scene, the marines standing in the phalanx became agitated. They looked at each other and stopped talking, and some of them stood in the back row, and even began to communicate in low voices. Seeing this, Wang Hu was about to shout to stop, but at this moment, Iron Slag stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, and motioned him to retreat. So, he gave a military salute and immediately took a step back.
"I thought they would be our brothers." Iron Slag stood in front of the phalanx and said lightly. Hearing the words of the regiment commander, the marines stopped the commotion one after another and quieted down.
"In the dark jungle, we fought side by side, lived and died together, exchanged our unity for a glimmer of life, and finally won the victory."
"But they, just a little insignificant threat, or a little bit of ethereal temptation, forget their former comrades, forget their own brothers, forget the glory of being a wolf legion!"
"I am saddened by their fragility ......"
"Now, we have suffered some unfair treatment and encountered some difficulties, but I believe that this will not be more dangerous than the battle in the dark jungle, and I am confident that we will soon regain our glory and wash away the malicious slander."
"My mantra has always been simple, fight, make money, and live a better life."
"I can't guarantee that your future will be paved with flowers and victories."
"But I can guarantee one thing."
"I will fight side by side with you until the end of my life!"
"Boss, we believe in you." "We are all brothers who survived the insect tide." "Both of them are cowards, tell them to go back." "Boss, we've got your back." As soon as the words fell, a warm shout erupted in the phalanx of the marines.
Iron Slag looked around at the excited Marines and nodded slowly. When they had gradually regained their calm, he added another fire. I saw him pull out the star stone black/card, hold it high, and say loudly: "Those people who only have purple cards, do you think they are amazing? What are they in my eyes! ā
Under the night, the black card exudes a pale golden shimmer, mysterious and low-key. Seeing that the marines were dumbfounded, they could not have imagined that his unattractive appearance and chirping regimental commander actually had the top status symbol of the silver city world.
After a moment of silence, the Marines' phalanx erupted in cheers that rang through the heavens and the earth. They all know very well that the higher the status of the regiment leader, the more social resources the team will receive, and their social status will also rise with the accumulation of combat achievements. In their eyes, such a regimental leader is worthy of their lives to follow. This regimental commander not only has outstanding personal ability, but also has a high social status, and more importantly, he is also willing to fight side by side with the soldiers at the bottom.
Looking at the soaring emotions of the team members, Iron Slag secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and this incident was finally suppressed for the time being. However, this is only temporary. If we want to truly solve the problem, we still have to uproot the root cause of the contradiction, and there will be many twists and turns.
Next, when the team members had regained their calm, Wang Hu disbanded the team and asked the team leaders to urge their team members to return to the camp to rest.
After more than ten minutes, the iron slag returned to the rest area. He sat on the couch for a moment, hesitantly reaching for the communicator and calling up a set of numbers. Then he fell into deep thought. This is the voice communication number of the Whispering Manor, and he is hesitating whether to ask Mu Yu Lily of the Valley for help. Thinking about it, judging from the current situation, it seems that he has no way to solve it on his own.
However, as Bai Xiaoyun said at the meeting, this kind of crisis will not be the first time, there will be a next time, next time, it is impossible for him to ask Mu Yu Lily of the Valley for help every time. On the one hand, the former is fledgling and can't cause her too much trouble at this stage; On the other hand, as a man, he begs women for help all the time, which really hurts his self-esteem.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally put down the communicator. He had already made a decision, and if he couldn't cope with the follow-up problems on his own, he would honestly go back to the academy to mess around. Although he also wanted to develop the team, he could never build the foundation on a woman.
Between thoughts, Qin Ke'er and Mu Qianhe came to the rest area and brought him good news - the weapons in the God of War Hall of the Central Yincheng Military Academy had arrived. These include two hundred bursts of blast rounds from the Smith M500 he had last ordered, as well as five psionic warrior rifles and three hundred empty psionic rifles ordered a few days ago.
After hearing the news, Iron Slag immediately went to the warehouse area of the camp tent and inspected the psionic warrior rifle wrapped in a wooden box and a tarp. After unpacking, he placed five rifles neatly against the gun rack. At this moment, under the orange-red light, the peach-hearted wooden butt exuded a brownish-red oily glow, and the jet-black, finely engraved barrel also exuded a cold luster.
Next, Iron Slag asked the two girls to call Wang Hu, Porcupine, Match, Tuoba San, and Marcus to the scene, and then distributed five rifles and two hundred and fifty rounds of psionic empty ammunition to them. After taking the gun, the five of them couldn't put it down, and they repeatedly studied and scrutinized. For them, this extremely expensive warrior rifle would give them a certain chance of victory against the psionics, at least without having to flee from the wind.
"Why isn't there Jerome's gun?" Wang Hu, who had been lowering his head and fiddling with his rifle, suddenly raised his head, looked at the iron slag and asked.
"I don't have enough money, I need 120 credits each." Iron Slag replied, but the real reason, he couldn't say too clearly.
Hearing him say this, Wang Hu hesitated for a few seconds, then picked up his rifle with both hands and said, "Or, give him my gun first." ā
"You are the deputy head of the regiment, you make your own decisions." Iron Slag did not take his gun, but replied lightly. Wang Hu nodded thoughtfully and did not speak again.
After this episode, the five people left the warehouse area one after another after receiving their guns and bullets. Afterwards, Iron Slag returned to the rest area with a small wooden box. He turned on the lamp, found a screwdriver, and then pried open the small wooden box on the coffee table.
The moment the wooden lid was lifted, I saw large yellow-orange-orange bullets neatly arranged among them, reflecting a dazzling luster in the hazy light. Take out one of the iron slag and put it under the lamp to observe it carefully.
At the bottom of the bullet, many small letters and numbers are engraved, which are the production batch number, the production date, and the manufacturer, Western Heavy Industry.
