587 Volcanic eruptions

"Zhao Xiaoli, go and get Zhou Youfu back, just say that the military seat is named." Chu Tingchang said.

"No need," Zheng Dongguo got up, "Since Commander Zhou thinks that Guan Gong is more important than the chief, why don't I go and meet him." After he finished speaking, he walked outside, Chu Tingchang glanced at He Bisheng on the side, why Bisheng understood, and quietly slipped away from behind to give Zhou Youfu a wake-up.

Taking Tao Mingzhang away is an important part of Chu Tingchang's overall strategy. Tao Mingzhang may not like the new army commander, but he is definitely unwilling to participate in conspiracy and trickery, stay here and say a few words that are not yin and yang and out of place, most of them will be bad, in fact, in terms of loyalty, he is indeed very lacking, just like Zhou Youfu said: full of doctrine, that is, there is no morality.

He Bisheng quietly came out from behind the tent and rode a fast horse to the construction site of the Guandi Temple. Officers below the battalion level should all be there at the moment. It has long been rumored in the army that when the statue of Guan Gong was built, a strange stone ox was dug up, and it is said that this is the ruins of the temple that Lao Tzu built when he went out of the letter valley to enter Tianzhuhua Hu Chuanjing, and it can be met with it, which can be seen that it should be inducted by heaven and man. Everyone said that the Guandi Temple here must be effective, so they made an appointment to come. Outside the mountain gate, everyone saw the huge sandalwood Guan Yu statue standing there with a big sword in hand, and the Taoist priest invited by Qingcheng Mountain in Sichuan was holding a consecration ceremony.

Zhou Youfu led all the low-level officers, lined up in line, and entered the bow in turn, praying for victory and victory in a hundred battles.

After bowing, Zhou Youfu saw that there was a hexagram stall in the main hall, and a long-bearded old Taoist was sitting behind the table, so he stepped forward and asked for a signature. And they all gathered around.

Zhou Youfu shook the bucket, and a stick fell inside. Lao Dao picked it up and only glanced at it, and suddenly looked embarrassed.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Everyone asked. Zhou Youfu glanced at Lao Dao and motioned to continue.

"Officer, this is a sign." The old man stroked his beard.

"What? Down? The crowd was shocked.

"Yes, yes, and listen to me," Lao Dao shook his head and began to chatter, "Dapeng is ambitious in the quagmire, the Tokyo soldiers are frustrated, the traitors are in turmoil, and the Northern Expedition dies before he is ready; Well, that's a big omen. ”

Everyone was horrified, this was the first sign asked for after the completion of this Guandi Temple, and it would be so appalling.

"How do you interpret this signature?"

"Back then, Yue Fei raised troops to attack Tokyo, and he saw that he could recover the Central Plains, but unexpectedly, the traitorous ministers seized power, issued twelve gold medals in a row to prevent him from marching, and then killed Marshal Yue's father and son in the Fengbo Pavilion in a trumped-up name."

Everyone looked at each other, everyone knew this allusion, and it seemed that it should be on Chu Tingchang, who had won a hundred battles, and the current 200 division had just won a big victory, but an irrelevant person was sent to take over. Listening to this meaning, if there were no traitors to obstruct him, Chu Shizuo should have led everyone into Tokyo.

"No, no, draw another lot."

Zhou Youfu began to play tricks, and Lao Dao smiled slightly, and he didn't stop him. Zhou Youfu reported the signing bucket and shook off another signature.

Lao Dao picked it up, and his face was ugly. Everyone knew that the situation was not good, but no one dared to ask.

"Well, it seems that God wills so. is another sign, and the signing is Zhao Kuo's soldiers. ”

"How?"

"This is to say, King Zhao replaced Lian Po with Zhao Kuo to take charge of the army, Zhao Kuo was familiar with military books, but he could only talk about soldiers on paper, and as a result, he was defeated by Bai Qi, the general of Qin, in Changping, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers were slaughtered by the Qin army."

This sign stabbed everyone's heart, and the hairs stood on end. After all, the previous signing of the Storm Pavilion was only a martyrdom for Yue Fei's father and son, and this Zhao Kuo came here, but he was going to exhaust the three armies.

Everyone hung their heads and followed Zhou Youfu outside, each with an evil fire in their hearts. Even though the new commander had just arrived and had not done anything wrong, he had already earned enough disgust.

In fact, Zhou Youfu's signature was not written at all, this was the idea of Chu Tingchang when he was planning with Chu Tingchang, he was really amazed that Chu Shizuo's intelligence was simply beyond the world, even if Zhuge Liang was alive, I am afraid that he would not be able to think of such a vicious plan. If the strategy succeeds, it will be equivalent to letting Zheng Dongguo offend everyone up and down the 200th division, and naturally there is no possibility for him to continue to gain a foothold.

For the average Chinese soldier, this kind of specious signature, it is indeed very demagogic, after all, everyone is immersed in Chinese culture, what they believe is nothing more than some alternation of yin and yang, otherwise Ji Tailai said, Zhu Shizuo has won so many battles, in fact, most officers are also worried that there will be a big setback, from a historical point of view, the sky is jealous of talents, villains take power, this kind of thing, is also a common drama. Sure enough, as everyone feared, things really came.

He Bisheng hurried here, got off the horse and squeezed through the crowd, and arrived in front of Zhou Youfu.

"Commander Zhou, the new military commander, has come to arrest you with a guard company."

"Catch me?" Zhou Youfu pretended to be surprised.

"Say that you have disobeyed military discipline, you can't be named, and you have to be court-martialed. He also said that he would push it to the Guandi Temple to break the superstitions in the army, and then there were those who asked God before the war, and they would all have twenty military sticks. ”

He started talking nonsense, this group of people had conspired together a long time ago, and there was not a word of truth in his mouth. The new army commander was rushing in the dust, completely unaware that he was on the cusp. The volcano under the ass is about to erupt.

"Look, they're coming." He Bisheng kept his hands on it, and sure enough, a cloud of smoke and dust came galloping from the north, with three jeeps in front and seven or eight trucks behind him.

"I don't bother my brothers, everyone go back to the camp quickly, just as if they didn't come in the morning." Zhou Youfu said awe-inspiringly.

"No, it's not your Lao Zhou's business today, this newcomer wants to make trouble, and he won't give up and kill your Lao Zhou, the next one will be the master's seat, and then we, so we must not promise him to mess around today."

As soon as the emotions of the people were stirred, they all rose up.

"Everyone listens, this surnamed Zheng is sent by Chongqing after all." Zhou Youfu continued to pretend to show weakness and provoked with his heart.

"Ge Laozi, how old is the one sent by Chongqing? Under the command of those rice buckets in Chongqing, Lao Tzu has never won a battle. Only with the Zhu Shi Seat, Zhou Tuanzuo, did he teach the Japanese a good lesson, seeing that they were going to hit Tokyo and seize the emperor's bird position, if they dared to do bad things, Lao Tzu would not recognize him as a turtle son of Chongqing. ”

"Yes, Lao Jiang can't fight, he has a whole set, we don't recognize him."

Someone finally shouted out the word Lao Jiang, seeing that the fire was not just right, but over, as if it was about to get out of control, Zhou Youfu hurriedly stopped everyone. As he spoke, the jeep arrived. Zheng Dongguo jumped out of the jeep and walked over quickly. It's quiet, waiting for things to happen.

Zheng Dongguo was wearing a brown military uniform that was completely different from everyone else, breeches and leather boots underneath, and a cylindrical military cap, which looked out of place for everyone here.

"Which one is Zhou Youfu." He got straight to the point and looked for Lao Zhou.

"Me."

Lao Zhou stood out of the crowd. A righteous and awe-inspiring look.

"Someone, tie up."

When Commander Zheng came, he thought very clearly, whether he could establish his authority in this new unit, and cleaning up this Zhou Youfu was the key, if today's confusion passed, the rewards and punishments were unknown, and the military discipline was not good, no one would naturally be afraid of him in the future. He didn't want to do too much, he just planned to tie up the disobedient Zhou Youfu in public first, kill his sharpness, and then let it go gently, which would make the rest of the people feel that they were by no means arbitrary and rude generals. He couldn't say that he was thinking carefully, but he didn't expect that the forces that opposed him would be plotting for much longer than him. Chu Tingchang's car even broke down on the road, so as to avoid appearing here too early and being in an awkward position.

Zhao Xiaoli's guard company, I didn't know whether the new army commander had the final say or not, they all looked back at Zhao Company Commander, saw him nodding, and came over to pinch their shoulders and put their heads on their backs, wanting to tie up Zhou Youfu. The junior officers in the back rushed up to block the soldiers.

"Mom, it's really easy for us to bully, it's only been a day since we came, and we will arrest people when we say they're arrested."

A company commander turned sideways to Zheng Dongguo and scolded himself. He is Zhou Youfu's brother, although Zhou Tuanzuo is unpopular when he plays cards, but the character in the army, losing money is losing money, and righteousness is righteousness.

"You ......," Zheng Dongguo raised his hand and pointed at the company commander.

"What are you, Lao Tzu Jibu Second Battalion, machine gun company commander Cao Ping, if you want to arrest it, I'll arrest it together."

"Tied together."

"Then get us back together."

Dozens of officers stepped forward together, blocking the soldiers, and then pressing forward step by step.

The guards and soldiers turned around and found that Zhao Xiaoli was hiding far away at some point, and they all knew each other, knowing that the immortals didn't have to be too active in fighting, so the troublesome officers advanced a foot, and the soldiers retreated, and soon retreated behind Zheng Dongguo.

Commander Zheng suddenly found himself a loner, but he knew that he must not retreat at this time, otherwise he would lose his momentum, and in the blink of an eye he was surrounded by officers. Even a few of his staff officers he had brought from home were kept out of the crowd.

"Our 200 divisions have one heart, and we don't allow outsiders to mess around."

"If you want to erect the seat of the master, ask us first."

"Chongqing wants to make trouble, and we will accompany it to the end." Another person mentioned Chongqing without knowing the height of the sky, which was the most fearful part of Chu Tingchang when formulating the overall plan, he hoped to control the fire, and only kick Zheng Dongguo away so as not to alarm Chongqing too much, but once the masses are mobilized, it is difficult to grasp the proportion. It is difficult for everyone's anger not to implicate Chairman Jiang of Chongqing Remote Control.

"You will rebel." Zheng Dongguo pulled out his pistol.

"We just want to fight the Japanese, and whoever has the same heart with the Japanese, we will not finish with him." Someone else buttoned Zheng Dongguo a pro-Japanese hat. It's a complete game. This farce planned by Commander Chu Ting, in just one morning, made almost all the officers of the 200th Division stand on the opposite side of the new army commander, and it was bound to make Chongqing take back its fate.

Chu Tingchang's car was late, he saw from a distance that it was going to get out of control, and if he was late, Zheng Dongguo might be beaten. He rushed to him in three steps and two steps, squeezing into the crowd.

"Whoever dares to touch Commander Zheng will step on me."

As he spoke, he stopped in front of the crowd.

After all, everyone bought it and retreated.

"Who is leading the trouble?" He turned to Zhou Youfu. "I knew it was you, someone who came, handcuffed Head Zhou, and sent him to the confinement room."

At the sound of an order, the guards rushed up and handcuffed Lao Zhou and took him away.

Chu Tingchang leaned into his waist and glared at everyone, but everyone didn't dare to say more, and they avoided his eyes.

"Master Guan is besieging Shangguan at his feet, do you still know that loyalty and filial piety are righteous and shameful?"
