Dark circles under the eyes, a tired face, some sad stubble, and slightly wandering eyes... These conditions all reveal how poor the quality of Kang Lin Kangda's sleep has been in the past two days. Therefore, Master Baihu, who was angry at getting out of bed, obviously didn't intend to go around in circles with his subordinates, but asked the question in his heart directly.
"Brothers, why did you come to see Kang so early?"
"Sir, my subordinates failed to guard the prisoners of war, causing three prisoners to abscond. I hope you will be severely punished by Baihu!" As expected, the first infantry team tried Baihu Fanjing, and Zheng Nansheng, the first post general flag, immediately came again after hearing this. He knelt down on one knee, raised his hands and confessed his mistake to his leader. But what they didn't expect was that instead of blaming them, Kanglin Kangda Baihu actually walked down from behind their own agenda and reached out to help them up.
"The thieves are cunning and escaped at night. I can't blame you. However, in order to strictly enforce military discipline, you and I will tie up Fan and Zheng and give them twenty lashes as a warning to others!" In fact, To be honest, Kang Lin did not want to punish Fan Huzi and Zheng Nansheng, who were his confidants. However, out of serious military discipline considerations, he ordered his men to escort Fan and Zheng out of the tent and flog them. .
"Yes, leader!" So soon, the sound of rattan beating flesh could be heard outside Kang Lin's tent. At the same time, many Chiyang sailors and people who had gotten up early in the morning also heard. They gathered around and began to watch the execution process vigorously! Moreover, out of a gossip mentality, they are constantly whispering with people they know or don’t know around them...
"Lords of the Hundred Households, the execution has been completed, and I have come back to you!" Ignoring the whispers and discussions among the ordinary people and soldiers, they did not let go at all, and the personal followers who tied up Fan and Zheng with twenty cane whips quickly took them into custody. The two officers who had finished their punishment came to the big tent, and then everyone lined up and began to wait for their leader's next words.
"Okay, for the sake of strict military discipline, I have already punished Captain Fan and Commander Zheng! However, guilty must be punished, and meritorious deeds must also be rewarded. Although they made mistakes, they still managed to capture one in the end. Fugitive! Therefore, in order to commend them for their achievements, we have now decided to take out two fine steel knives from the male (the system rewards refined waist knives), ten taels of silver, ten pieces of colored satin, and ten pieces of fine white cotton as rewards. The two of them..." Credit goes to credit, fault goes to fault, just like Kang Lin said, he is a person who knows rewards and punishments clearly. He will not not hold his subordinates accountable for their faults just because they have merit. In the same way, he will not Just because they made a mistake, the credit of their subordinates was wiped out! Therefore, after showing off his big stick, he immediately handed over a sweet date!
"Master Baihu is wise!" Rewards and punishments are clear, fair and reasonable, and Kang Lin's handling of things is always blameless. Therefore, he quickly won the hearts of everyone, and the two guys who were closely linked to each other, Fan Huzi and Zheng Nansheng, knelt down on the ground with excitement, kowtowing hard to thank their leader for his grace! Among them, Fan Huzi is the worst. He has been a frontier soldier for many years, but he has always been rewarded for his merits. How often has he encountered a superior officer like Chief Kang Lin Kang who has clear rewards and punishments (and this is also the case with the Ming Army in Different Time and Space). Always "traditional"!), for this reason, he is very grateful to Kang Lin, the current head of the family, and is even willing to die for him now!
"Okay, now that we've talked about defense, it's time to talk about the escaped slaves. Come on, bring the escaped slaves to this hundred households!" After dealing with his subordinates' affairs, Chief Kanglin Kangda now decided Meet the guy who dared to escape from his own prison camp, because I heard that that bastard had killed five of his unsuspecting soldiers with the help of his accomplices last night.
Yes, there are five defenseless soldiers, maybe more, but it doesn't make much difference to Kang Lin, because this guy is destined to die. In order to avenge his tragic death of his subordinates, Kang Lin will definitely wait. He will be tortured to death in the most cruel and inhumane way! Of course, before that, if this bastard could be used to lure out his accomplices, everything would be even better.
"Sir, the escaped slaves have been brought up!" So soon, Huang Wei, who was tied up like a rice dumpling, was rudely pushed in by Kang Lin's followers, and then, seemingly inadvertently, Yang Qi and Luo Guang With a sudden hard force, the latter was pushed down heavily in front of the Kangda leader's case in an instant.
"Who are you kneeling before the case?" Next, without the instructions of Lord Baihu, two discerning followers stepped forward to pick up the fugitive, who was like a gourd rolling on the ground, and held down his high head, forcing him to behave. He knelt down in front of his leader! Of course, after hearing the questions coming from behind a few cases, the two guys slightly loosened their hands holding "Zongzi" so that he could barely raise his head to answer his boss's question.
"Huang Wei." There were no excessive words or strong struggles. Huang Wei acted very calmly, as if all his strength had been drained away by the sharp blade on his neck, and he did not show any signs of it. He showed how an ordinary person should behave after being captured. There was neither anger nor pleading in his words!
"You know, last night you and your accomplices killed five loyal sailors under my command! Haha, you know, each of them is my brother and a precious asset to the development of the entire fleet! However, Just because of you bastards, five of them died in one night, five, five smart and capable men! You said, you just ran away, why did you kill my men? Was it theirs? Life is worthless, I should die in your hands?!..." Kang Lin left his seat and came to the prisoner of war in a few steps. He grabbed the man's chest and shirt and lifted him up effortlessly. He got up, and then stared at this guy with a pair of fierce eyes, and the latter barely made any effort to read the danger and cruelty in the other person's eyes, which was equivalent to telling himself nakedly, The other party is very happy to kill him. Of course, it would be even better if he could kill the rabbit while killing his escaping companions!
"Yang Qi, tell me, what happened to the guy who killed our brothers last time?" Kang Lin punched Huang Wei's weather-beaten but still fair face, and then his face turned pale He shouted gloomily to his subordinates, "Hurry up and tell our distinguished guest!"
"Half of the people are dead, and the rest have become our prisoners, Master Baihu!" Yang Qi is also a man of trouble. Looking at his leader's eyes at a glance, he expected that he must have spoken out to back him up, and then immediately Then he opened his mouth and responded.
"Then what are you waiting for? Why don't you drag this guy down and kill him quickly!" Kang Lin's words contained a strong meaning of "anger", as if he was about to order his personal followers to push the prisoner out and kill him. The next moment, in order to cooperate with his leader, Yang Qi also let go of the prisoner's hand and reached the place where the knife hung on his back. He was preparing to draw the knife to kill! If anyone who knows Yang Qi well is here at this moment, they will definitely scream out in surprise, because at this moment, Yang Qi's face does not have the slightest hint of cowardice and humility in front of others, instead it is full of murderous intent! I think this guy has followed Kang Lin and killed more than two pirates in battle, and he killed them with real swords and guns, so he is no stranger to killing people!
"Yes, Master Baihu!"
"Sir, killing this guy right now is like slaughtering a dog. Why don't we keep his life and lure out the other two escaped slaves who killed our sailors..." However, just as Yang Qi grabbed Huang Wei's head, When he was about to "take action", Kanglin's painting officer Yan Si stood up and stopped Yang Qi's movements. Following Yan Si's words, Huang Wei, who was kneeling on the ground, visibly moved. Suddenly, obviously, he is not as fearless of life and death as he appears!
"Well, since Yan Zanhua is interceding for you, I will spare your life for the time being and tie this guy to the mainmast of the flagship for me. No one is allowed to let him down without my order!" Pretending! After pondering for a moment, Kang Lin finally "reluctantly" agreed, and under his order, several strong soldiers entered the tent and took away the bloody prisoners.
"Chief, what happened last night only shows that our temporarily formed fleet has various loopholes that we know or don't know about, but there are also bright spots. One of them is that the soldiers are united and have not flinched. An example! In the previous battles, our people always had the problem of weak will to fight, unable to fight for a long time, and even defeated the enemy. But this time, they performed much better. Without their desperate fighting last night, , maybe those three bastards can capture the ship without losing a single person..." Not mentioning Huang Wei who was taken away by hundreds of soldiers, Yan Si, the fleet's painting officer, continued to speak, and his words were very fast. This aroused the approval of the fleet leaders, including Conlin.
"So?" Kang Lin sat back on the big chair that belonged to him. At the same time, his maid, the thin Xiao'e, also brought him freshly brewed tea. Of course, Kang Lin, who had won the battle, couldn't help it. He would just let his exclusive maid wear that ugly black dress again. After looting so much silk and cloth, and among the new recruits, there are people who are proficient in tailoring skills. There is really no reason for this guy to let his maid wear the system again. The product was made of black clothes, so Xiao'e quickly put on a dress made of cotton, and this was in line with her temporary identity!
"We must seize the time to train our soldiers. They are timid, cowardly, greedy, undisciplined, and even defeated at the first touch. Don't look at me. Although Yan praised them just now, in essence, they are still a group of people without any knowledge." The fighting power is a mob, so, Lord Baihu, we must put the training work on the agenda as soon as possible..." In the tent, Yan Si, the painting officer, was talking non-stop, but the next moment, a man opened the curtain He interrupted his speech rudely,
"General, sirs, Medical Officer Lei asked me to report to you. Please move to the medical camp. He has something important to report to you face to face!"
