Chapter 9 The Sword Refers to the Republic
No one mentions the "wedding" of Laksin and Xiao Xiao anymore. First, this is the handsome Xiao Wanlong's family matter, and it is not something that can be used as a talking point casually; The second is that everyone is so busy that no one has time to gossip.
In the next two days, the people of the original village were nervous, and they were preparing for the upcoming big war. Xiao Wanlong gave an order to every village, asking them to organize their weapons, grain and grass as soon as possible. Everyone had to do it in full swing, and soon these two days were spent in a busy situation.
Finally, when the day of the expedition came, the soldiers lined up in a neat line to the open space in front of the marshal's mansion to wait for the review before the expedition. The platform of the Shuaifu is covered with various colored flags, which represent all the villages of the original village. In the center of these flags stood a large flag. This flag is several times larger than the others, and it is embroidered by hand with the word "righteousness". This is the military flag used by the original village. The word "righteousness" above is the meaning of Xiao Wanlong. According to him, these brothers who went out on the expedition were born for righteousness and died for righteousness, so the military flag must have the word "righteousness" on it. In fact, this word can be understood to have many meanings, and it also contains the concept of fighting for freedom and revolution for the people. Of course, Xiao Wanlong would not say these sour words in front of people, he claimed to be a rough man. As a coarse person, you can explain many truths with one "righteousness".
At noon, Xiao Wanlong appeared on the platform. He looked down, and below him was a crowd of black oppressors. He knew that these were the soldiers who were going to go with him. In fact, this is only a part of the people, because Xiao Wanlong has gathered a total of 50,000 troops, which is actually the entire family of the original village. Due to the large number of people, most of them could only stay at the foot of the mountain and wait for orders, and only one-tenth of them stood in the open space of the Shuai Mansion. But even a tenth is already spectacular.
Xiao Wanlong looked at these soldiers with resolute eyes and suddenly felt good, he seemed to have long forgotten the embarrassment of the previous two days. Putting on a dignified face, he glanced at his troops. The troops were divided into twenty-four large battalions, each commanded by twenty-four generals. These twenty-four battalions are actually divided according to the twenty-four villages of the original village, and these twenty-four generals are also the village chiefs of the original villages. Of course, although they are already generals, they have not received Xiao Wanlong's title, so today, in addition to reviewing the troops and making a swearing-in speech, Xiao Wanlong also has to give these generals a fixed title and title. Of course, this ceremony will not be held until after Xiao Wanlong's swearing-in speech.
Now is the auspicious time that the diviner said. Xiao Wanlong froze, took a deep breath, and shouted at his loudest volume: "Brothers! Today is finally here. We have waited for more than ten years just to get justice for today, for the republic! We're going to revolutionize the life of the Republic! Many of you probably don't understand what a revolution is. Actually, I don't really understand, but I know that revolution is a good thing, it can set me free! You may ask me, 'Aren't we free now?' I can answer you with certainty: 'No!' 'We are not free!' We have been hiding in the mountains and surviving. This is not a long-term solution. One day the republic will find us, drive us out, zuihou destroy us! And at that time, we didn't fight back at all. Because we are used to living this 'free' life. This false freedom does not bring us comfort, we can only seek comfort ourselves. And what to get for this comfort? We have to trade our blood for it! Go fight with them and take back our freedom from them! This is our revolution! Brothers, would you like to join me in this revolution? ”
"Yes!" Thousands of people shouted at the same time. The sound shook the earth. It was as if an earthquake was about to happen.
"Excellent! I trust you, because you are the people of the original village. It's my good brother! You remember that you are not fighting for you personally. You are fighting for your loved ones, you are fighting for your children and grandchildren! Many of you will die in battle, but don't worry, your sacrifice has been exchanged for the freedom of your relatives and your children and grandchildren. If so, would you still be afraid of death? ”
"No!" Again, a loud enough reply to shake the mountain.
Xiao Wanlong nodded with satisfaction and continued: "Very good! In that case, then twenty-four will obey the order! One step forward! ”
Hearing this order from the commander, the twenty generals immediately got down from the tall horses they were riding, stepped forward and half-knelt on the ground, waiting for instructions.
Xiao Wanlong looked at the twenty generals below who were all dressed in military uniforms and in good spirits, and there was a burst of joy in his heart. He drew the sword he wore at his waist and backhanded it to the ground. He said loudly: "The generals will listen to the seal!"

Command! ”
"Yes!" The generals replied in unison.
Xiao Wanlong paused, and then said: "Lakshen, don't obey the order!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the two people who had been riding on the horse also got off their horses very neatly and knelt down with the generals.
"I named Lakshen as the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and Mo Zhitian as the vanguard of the Praetorian Guard. The above two of you are also the generals of my original village like all the generals, and listen to the orders of the army of the original village! If there is a negative village, it will be dealt with by military law! Command! ”
"Yes!" The two of them replied dryly.
Xiao Wanlong nodded again. Naturally, he didn't know that these two people had gone through an extremely painful ideological struggle in the past few days. Now he was only thinking about the Republic, the country he would never forget. The hatred of the country and the family all came to my heart for a while. Gotta win! Gotta win! He constantly hinted to himself that he hoped that the army he led would be invincible, that his people would be able to regain their lives in this revolution.
After Xiao Wanlong calmed down his surging mood, he slowly raised the long sword in his hand, and the sharp tip of the sword pointed into the distance. He shouted at the thousands of troops in front of him: "Everyone has my order!" The three armies set off, the target republic!! (To be continued......)
