boom!
However, as soon as the knife reached his neck, he saw Liu Mengru raising her feet and holding the stick that had been thrown on the ground in her hand.
With a slight swing, he hit Zuo Zhigang's wrist.
His arm went numb and the knife fell to the ground with a clang.
"General, what are you doing?"
Zuo Zhigang said angrily: "My subordinates have become bandits and have insulted the reputation of the Flying Eagle Army. You can let them die."
"Let me ask you, is being a bandit what you want in your heart?"
Liu Mengru did not answer him, but asked instead.
"no."
"Having been a bandit for so many years, have you ever harmed the common people?"
"I collected the resettlement fee."
"After collecting the resettlement fee, are you sincerely protecting the people?"
"have."
"Since you don't really want to be a bandit and you are protecting the people, how does this conflict with the military discipline of our Flying Eagle Army?"
Liu Mengru asked, "Since there is no conflict, why are you rushing to die?"
"As a soldier of the Flying Eagle Army, even if you die, you should die on the battlefield instead of committing suicide like this."
"If I really want to apologize, I will find out the truth about that year, find the enemies, and kill them."
"In this way, if you die, you will have the honor to see your own master."
"I……"
Zuo Zhigang was speechless when asked, and could only kneel down and loudly said: "I am willing to obey the general's orders and follow him to the death."
"Get up."
Liu Mengru said indifferently: "From now on, you have to listen to my husband's orders. His talents are much higher than mine."
"Under his leadership, we can hope to revenge."
"this……"
Zuo Zhigang hesitated.
Liu Mengru's face suddenly darkened, "How dare you disobey?"
"The last general takes orders."
Even though he said that, he felt somewhat dissatisfied.
After all, Zhao Ping poisoned them and used disgraceful methods. Can such a person be the commander-in-chief of an army?
Zhao Ping didn't mind either.
If you are not convinced now, there will be a time when you will be convinced.
Let's let time witness it.
Zhao Ping coughed twice and stood up and said: "Since Zuo Zhigang is Meng Ru's subordinate and Wen Qi is Wen Hui's younger brother, then this Black Wind Village cannot be defeated."
"Although I can't get over it, I can't be a bandit anymore."
"We can't charge any relocation fees."
"ah?"
Zuo Zhigang was dumbfounded, "Without the resettlement money and not being bandits, how can we live?"
"There are more than a hundred people in Heifeng Village. We can't drink the northwest wind every day, right?"
"You all have your own hands and feet, can't you do your own work?"
Zhao Ping said angrily: "There are idle fields everywhere in Heifeng Village. If you cultivate some and grow some food, isn't it enough for you to eat?"
"I……"
Zuo Zhigang was about to cry but had no tears.
He is a bandit. Have you ever seen a bandit farming?
Zhao Ping also knew this, and then added: "Of course, farming is the clumsiest way."
"As subordinates of the Flying Eagle Army, we should be on the battlefield, so I established a bodyguard bureau. From now on, you will lead everyone in Black Wind Village to join the bodyguard bureau and serve as my bodyguards."
"What does an escort have to do with being on the battlefield?"
Zuo Zhigang asked.
"Now our escort agency doesn't do escort work, it's mainly about training."
Zhao Ping explained: "To put it bluntly, I am training my troops under the name of the escort agency. Otherwise, training privately is a capital offense. We cannot violate the laws of Dawei and be used by people with ulterior motives. It is difficult for us to defend ourselves. "
"Don't generals have the right to train troops?"
Zuo Zhigang said: "She has a flying eagle and tiger talisman with the character "liu" engraved on it. It was a gift from the emperor."
"With that, if we build a team of 5,000 people, no one will dare to make irresponsible remarks."
"No matter how good the Flying Eagle Army is, there won't be many."
Liu Mengru said: "Look at your Black Wind Village, there are more than a hundred people, but my husband can subdue you with only one person."
"No matter how many such people there are, they will never be able to become a member of the Flying Eagle Army."
"I……"
Zuo Zhigang was so suppressed that his face turned red and his neck was thick, and he could only say angrily: "That's what the gentleman used, and he poisoned us."
"You have served as a soldier for so many years in vain."
Liu Mengru said angrily: "What about the dirty tricks?"
"As long as it can defeat the enemy, it is a good method."
"You still don't have enough brains. When my husband's literacy class is launched, you will be the first batch of students."
"Huh? Still going to school?"
Zuo Zhigang was dumbfounded.
"if not?"
Liu Mengru said: "Waging a war requires not only the courage of an ordinary man, but also a strategy."
"Now that the Flying Eagle Army has collapsed, I have no one to use. You will be the commander I focus on training. You must not be a hindrance."
"Yes, I will obey your orders."
Seeing Liu Mengru getting angry, Zuo Zhigang had no choice but to obey his orders.
But Wen Qi on the side became interested, "You can still study?"
"Can I come on?"
"After I go to school, can I take the scholar examination?"
"What are you thinking about?"
Wen Hui slapped him on the back of the head and said angrily: "Your Majesty, the purpose of running a school is to train useful people. What are you doing by taking the exam?"
"Be an official."
Wen Qi said matter-of-factly: "Our family was slaughtered by Medical Officer Feng Gou and Magistrate Gou. I must avenge this."
"Only by entering an official career can we punish them."
"My father-in-law has already avenged half of our family feud."
Wen Hui said: "The Feng family's father and son have been sent to prison by the father-in-law, and they will be assassinated and sent to the army at a later date."
"As for the dog magistrate, he was promoted to Pingyan County and is the county magistrate there. Even if the husband wants to take revenge on him, he has to cultivate his power."
"You must study hard with your husband in the future. I hope you can avenge our family in person."
"Yes, sister, I listen to you."
Wen Qi nodded heavily.
At the same time, he thanked Zhao Ping, "Sir, thank you for helping our family punish the Feng family and his son."
"We are all one family, no need to be so polite."
Zhao Ping waved his hand, and then said to Zuo Zhigang: "Zuo Zhigang, your copycat village shouldn't be stable, right?"
"Let's clean it up while we're all here."
"Kill those who deserve to be killed, and drive down those who deserve to be driven down the mountain."
"We set up an escort bureau. All escorts must be of one mind and half-heartedness will never be allowed. Do you understand?"
"I know."
Zuo Zhigang nodded, "The second boss has been killed by you."
"The only ones who are not stable now are the fourth and fifth masters."
"We surrender, we are willing to submit to the master, and we will never have any thoughts of betrayal again."
This is a general, a concubine, and the emperor. They were both scared to death.
How dare you show any disobedience when you are called out by name at this time.
"Hmph! While we are employing people, we will temporarily keep you alive to see how you behave in the future."
Zuo Zhigang said coldly: "If you satisfy me, not only can you survive, but you may also be able to become a centurion."
"If you are still half-hearted, you should be careful about the heads on your neck."
"Yes, yes, we must be obedient."
The two hurriedly expressed their opinions.
The Sixth Master and the Seventh Master were both members of their own family. Master Ruan Wendi was familiar with the general and could be considered one of their own. Zuo Zhigang simply ignored them.
The third boss is a softie. He only cares about money and food and does not participate in factional disputes.
But the current Heifeng Village is no longer the Heifeng Village before. Here, there is only one voice and there is no neutrality.
The third leader could only express his willingness to surrender to Zuo Zhigang.
In this way, the heads of the entire Black Wind Village were completely unified, without any second thoughts.
When the family members all surrendered, the little bandits had nothing to say. They unanimously chose to support the big boss and only recognized the big boss.
Zuo Zhigang pushed Zhao Ping out again and asked everyone to obey his orders in the future.
No one had any objection.
Whose orders do you have to listen to? If you can take care of a meal, just pay some money for settlement at the end of the month.
At this time, Xia Quan also arrived with a large force.
Zhao Ping discussed with him and began to announce the plan.
"First of all, cancel the title of bandit. From now on, everyone will be an escort and a good citizen."
"Sir, are we all bandits?"
Wen Qi raised doubts, "You have already registered with the government, how can you become a good citizen?"
"We'll talk about this later. You follow my arrangements first."
Zhao Ping waved his hand to interrupt him and continued to announce.
"Secondly, all members of Heifeng Village participate in the training. Those who pass the test can become bodyguards of the Xiping Village Bodyguard Bureau. The salary is three meals a day and two hundred coins per month."
"so much?"
Zuo Zhigang was shocked and said: "Sir, where did we get so much money?"
"Can you please not disturb me?"
Zhao Ping frowned and said, "Listen to me."
Zuo Zhigang took a few steps back, not daring to say anything anymore, causing the bandits to burst into laughter.
Zhao Ping didn't care and continued: "I'm talking about qualified people who can get that kind of treatment."
"What is a qualified person?"
"The standard is in the hands of Xia Quan. He is your escort leader and your most direct leader. From now on, all your training will be under his control."
"Finally, I appointed Zuo Zhigang as the deputy head of the escort agency, with a salary of three meals a day and four hundred cash a month."
“And accept the challenge.”
"If any of you can defeat him, then the position of head guard will be taken by the one who defeats him."
"Brother Ping, I can defeat him."
Li Hu stood up and said.
