White Snake originally wanted to pretend to be a master and wait for Dragon Boat Festival to invite him in person. Although he didn't have to pay a second visit to the thatched cottage, he still had to invite him out of the mountain before he could come out.
But unfortunately, Leng Xiumei and Hou Junbao couldn't wait any longer.
This Leng Xiumei was originally a subordinate of Xia Shanhu. She was worried that after the supervision team established a foothold, they would settle the score with her later.
So while the Supervision Corps is still on a weak footing, she wants to ask clearly first. If the Supervision Corps wants to settle the scores, she will leave with them immediately. Even if there were all Japanese at the foot of the mountain at this time, they could still go through the back mountain.
The back mountain is huge and the terrain is complex.
Although the only way out has been blocked by the supervision team. But it is still a place to settle down.
And what about Hou Junbao? He thought so too.
He had been careful before, thinking that if the Supervisory Corps wanted to settle accounts in the future, he would be one of them.
So these two people forcefully dragged White Snake over and used his sharp tongue to see if they could settle the matter.
If you see three people during the Dragon Boat Festival, you will naturally not recognize them. Duanwu asked: "Lao Shou has told me the general situation. I wonder what some of you want from me? By the way, who is White Snake?"
Dragon Boat Festival didn't know White Snake, but only heard Lao Shou mention it. Lao Shou said that this person still had some abilities, and this time, attacking Wanjiazhai would not be that easy without his help.
So Dragon Boat Festival is also quite interested in this white snake.
Although he could almost guess who the White Snake was, he still asked. After all, there is no need to guess the other party's identity, just ask.
At this moment, White Snake came up, waving a folding fan and said with an expert smile: "This is White Snake."
Duanwu said: "Old Snoring said that you are a person, and staying in this mountain is really a bit unfair. Don't you know that Mr. White Snake can't be accommodated in my small temple?"
"hehe!"
Bai She laughed dryly and was about to say something pretentious, but at this moment, Leng Xiumei stabbed him secretly.
White Snake had no choice but to fold her fan and fold her hands, saying, "I'm willing to listen to you."
Duanwu nodded, then looked at Leng Xiumei and said: "Miss Leng, I also heard Lao Snoring mention you. You are brave and resourceful, and resolutely chose to stand in front of righteousness. I, Duanwu, say to Miss Leng I admire you very much. Are you willing to stay and fight against Japan with me?"
Leng Xiumei hurriedly stepped forward and clasped her fists, saying: "I am willing to obey the orders of the regiment."
"kindness!"
Duanwu nodded again and looked at Hou Junbao.
Hou Junbao quickly smiled and said: "Commander, I am also willing to listen to your orders. Your famous name is like thunder!"
Duanwu sneered and said: "Hahaha, Hou Junbao. He was greedy for life and afraid of death. He crossed the river and burned the bridge. He was almost killed by more than a dozen little devils."
Plop!
Before Dragon Boat Festival finished speaking, Hou Junbao's knees softened and he knelt on the ground. Hou Junbao said quickly: "Please forgive me, please forgive me. I don't dare anymore, I really don't dare anymore."
Logically speaking, Duanwu couldn't trust Hou Junbao, but would he kill him? So what's the reason? Although he was a bandit, he assisted Lao Snoring in attacking the mountain.
Although they ran away halfway, they stopped Shimoyama Tora and Kojima Chuichiro who were about to escape.
So in fact, logically speaking, this Hou Junbao has made a lot of contributions. But he is greedy for life and afraid of death. Not suitable for being a soldier at all.
But if you drive him down the mountain, there is a great possibility that he will be used by the devils at the foot of the mountain. After all, he was too familiar with Wanjialing.
Dragon Boat Festival was hesitating, not knowing what to do with Hou Junbao. But at this moment, White Snake said: "Master, although my eldest brother is a little irritable, but he is brave and heroic to the brothers. I implore you to give me a chance to let my eldest brother work for you."
Duanwu thought for a while and said: "White Snake, you have seen that there are no cowards in my army. There are only two kinds of people I hate most, one is a weakling, and the other is a traitor."
Speaking of this, Duanwu said to Hou Junbao again: "Hou Junbao, if you commit these two crimes in the future, I will kill you for two crimes. No one can save you by then, do you understand?"
"Understood, thank you, everyone, thank you, everyone!"
Hou Junbao kowtowed and thanked Dragon Boat Festival for his kindness in not killing. Duanwu sighed silently, thinking: This Hou Junbao is still too soft.
But it wasn't like he didn't deal with people with weak knees, and they all became hardened in the end.
At the same time, White Snake quickly pulled Hou Junbao up, then bowed slightly to Duanwu and said, "Thank you, everyone, then who will be in charge of us?"
Duanwu thought about it again and said: "White Snake, please stay at the regiment headquarters, and then I will give you the position of commander of the first company of new recruits. Regarding the training of new recruits, I will find someone to assist you."
As for Leng Xiumei and Hou Junbao, the number of your two troops is only equivalent to one platoon in the corps under my supervision. Therefore, I have temporarily appointed you as the commander of the first platoon of recruits and the commander of the second platoon of recruits.
Take your people and train hard. If one day I am satisfied with your training results, I will give you new positions, go on! "
"Platoon leader?"
Hou Junbao's expression was a little ugly. He was the dignified head of Wanjiazhai, but now he was given the job of a platoon leader? And his brothers are all new recruits? Do not make jokes. His men have fought dozens of big and small battles, right?
"Stop talking and go!"
White Snake took Hou Junbao and left. And Leng Xiumei followed behind.
Leng Xiumei naturally sees things much more clearly than Hou Jun. They were no match for the little devil. On the contrary, the little devil had no chance of winning under the supervision of the general team. This is the difference between the two.
Therefore, although Leng Xiumei was only a platoon leader, she did not have as big an opinion as Hou Junbao.
When they got outside, Hou Junbao shook off White Snake's hand and said, "Brother, why are you holding me back? You should let me take the lead and seek justice for my brothers. Isn't this looking down on people, huh?"
"Don't yell here, it will disturb the rest of the group,"
At this moment, a guard reprimanded. Hou Junbao quickly apologized and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we'll leave right away."
White Snake and Leng Xiumei were speechless. And especially White Snake. He just wanted to comfort Hou Junbao, but he didn't expect that this person was a complete paper tiger. After being scolded a few times by the guards, he immediately gave up.
But White Snake is also used to it. His eldest brother is such a coward, what can he do?
But Hou Junbao is a pretty good person, at least he is affectionate and kind to his second boss.
Therefore, it is precisely because of this that White Snake cannot just watch Hou Junbao lose his head because of his bad mouth.
He said to Hou Junbao: "Brother, this matter is far from as simple as you think!"
"What? Why isn't it simple?"
Hou Junbao was surprised. Although he believed Bai She's words, he really felt that the young leader looked down on him. On the contrary, when he watched the Dragon Boat Festival, he felt like he was still young.
He even thought that if he were to be the leader of the group, he would do better than Duanwu.
