"It turns out that he is a member of Xueshuai's tribe and a disciple of Cheng Taibao! Haha, he is indeed a handsome man, and he is among the best! So, let me introduce myself first, so that everyone can get to know each other! After all, from now on, In the end, we will be brothers who play with each other. It’s okay if we don’t know each other...

My name is Kang Lin, and my courtesy name is Yuan Jing. I am the master of this place, and I am also the big leader who you all need to bow to and obey in the future! Behind me are our civil and military officials from Chiyang. Take a look at their faces. If you have anything to do next, in addition to coming to me directly, you can also seek their help! As for the soldiers with live ammunition around you, they are our regular flag troops and reserve troops in Chiyang, and they are also the brothers you can entrust to your back in the future! And where is this place? Brothers, please use your loudest voice to tell us new brothers..."

Simple face, strong body, and thick and powerful hands and feet! Boss Kanglinkang is very satisfied with the upgrade reward given to him by the imperial system this time. From every aspect, these peasant men from Hunan, Anhui, and Jianghuai areas meet the selection standards of the Ming Dynasty Army God Qi Jiguang and Grandpa Qi. In the future, as long as After a little training and equipping them with sophisticated weapons, they will become an elite and powerful army that can fight!

Only the pig tail on the back of the head is annoying! A dignified Chinese man, whose body, hair and skin are shaped by his parents, what does it mean to have such a long braid like a woman? He is neither male nor female, making people uncomfortable to look at him! It seems that if we want the Hunan Army and the Huai Army in front of us to really gain their attention, we must cut off their braids! Only in this way can they completely bid farewell to the past and truly integrate into their own group!

"This place is called Jeju. A few months ago it was the territory of the Lee clan's Koryo. Now it is called Tamna. It is our Chiyang's world! This place is called Jeju. A few months ago it was the territory of the Lee clan's Koryo. Now If it is renamed Tamna, it will be our world of Chiyang! This place is called Jeju, and a few months ago it was the territory of Goryeo of the Ri clan. Now it is renamed Tamna, and it will be our world of Chiyang..."

After hearing the questions from their leader, the surrounding regular flag troops and reserve soldiers raised their weapons without saying a word and began to slam them towards the ground. At the same time, they kept saying Let out a roar like a roaring mountain and a tsunami! Once, twice, three times, in the end, even the civil and military officials under Kang Lin and even Kang Lin himself joined the roaring crowd!

This made Peng Yushu and Cheng Xuerui look at each other a little bit! Although they are all experienced battlefield generals, they sometimes choose to turn a blind eye to the robbery of their subordinates, but in their conscience, they have never regarded robbery as anything.

A glorious career to do! Especially Peng Yushu and Peng Da Sentinel. He was an officer of the Hunan Army. He had studied at Shigu Academy in Hengzhou for several years. He always regarded himself as a scholar and was very strict in managing his soldiers!

At this moment, when he saw Kang Lin and his group talking so confidently about occupying the country and plundering the people, and even a little complacent, his face instantly became a little unsightly. However, just as he was about to transform into a private school teacher , when he was preaching to these shameless people in front of him, the Huai Army sentry officer Cheng Xuerui behind him calmly held him back!

Are you kidding me? The other party is the new master of people like me. From now on, whether he will be a popular and popular drinker and be treated as a close confidant, or whether he will hide in a corner and be unpopular with others, is all a matter of one word! Now, when people are most excited, you go up to preach. You, Peng Yushu, are seeking death, but you must not bring me, Cheng Xuerui, with you!

Not to mention, these seemingly crazy guys don’t have braids on the back of their heads. They either keep their hair in a bun or simply shave their heads. And everyone who knows what this means knows! You know, I used to live in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom with my brother Cheng Xueqi for a while! Therefore, if you wear the attire of a rebel, you will be a good person! These guys with buns or bald heads in front of me are definitely not kind people!

Uh, by the way, those people call themselves Chiyang, Chiyang, Chiyang. What kind of force is this? The Qing Dynasty, long hair, twisters, English, French, Russians, and Americans have heard of it themselves, and the Koreans, Japanese, and Annan people are no strangers to them, but what the hell is this Chiyang? He is really Unheard of! Could it be some Jianghu force trying to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, or some ghostly Taoist sect hiding in the dark!

Forget it, never mind, as long as I can take care of my own food and drink, and pay my own salary in the future, what's the matter with selling my life to them? I used to be quite carefree when I was a hairy under Ye Shuai, if not Later, Ye Shuai listened to the villain's slander and killed his sister-in-law and nephew. Why did his eldest brother Cheng Xueqi lead his army to surrender to the Qing Dynasty! Now that I met a Han man with a bun, it didn't matter if he cut off the pigtail on the back of his head. Anyway, I didn't have any good impression of the dim-witted court where female ministers were in charge. My eldest brother was a hero, but in the end he was just for points. He was ostracized by the Zeng brothers for trivial matters, and was eventually kicked into the Huai army of Li Shaoquan. Fortunately, Li Hongzhang was very knowledgeable and willing to entrust his eldest brother with important responsibilities, otherwise his eldest brother would really have to Being secretly betrayed by someone else!

When he thought of what that thief Zeng Guoquan had done, Cheng Xuerui felt a burst of anger in his heart. At the same time, he also felt a sense of resentment towards Zeng Guofan, who was ignorant and protective of his shortcomings! So he ignored Peng Yushu's horrified gaze, reached out and pulled out a short knife from his waist, and then cut off the braid on the back of his head with a "snap" sound! Not only that, after this guy finished his ideological work, he turned around and shouted loudly to his subordinates,

"Everyone, everyone, listen to something, listen to something! I think we were all citizens of the Ming Dynasty a hundred years ago, and we never had this extremely ugly pigtail on the back of our heads. Today, it is rare for the leader to not abandon it. We should take it as our own responsibility. Cut off these evils of the old dynasty to clarify your will! Come, everyone, listen to a certain order, draw your sword and remove your braids, and show your mind to our leader!"

"Hey! Uh no, yes!"

Seeing their elders suddenly cutting off their braids with a knife, the soldiers of the Huai Army under Cheng Xuerui also subconsciously pulled out the bayonets from their waists, and then severely cut off the braids on the back of their heads! As the saying goes, what kind of people lead what kind of soldiers? Cheng Xuerui is determined to submit a certificate of surrender to his new master, so his soldiers will naturally imitate him! Soon, as the cold sword light continued to flash, the ugly and greasy braids were thrown into the garbage by these veterans of the Huai Army who had been in the Taiping Army!

"From now on, we will swear allegiance to the leader to the death, to destroy the Tartars and restore China! From now on, we will swear to be loyal to the leader, to destroy the Tartars, and restore China! From now on, we will swear to be loyal to the leader, to destroy the Tartars, and restore China! China!"

Seeing Cheng Xuerui and a group of Huai army soldiers decisively cutting off the long braid on the back of his head without thinking, Kang Lin couldn't help but show a satisfied smile on his face! To be fair, although Cheng Xueqi's Kaizi camp was adapted from the surrendered troops of the Taiping Army, he did not have much loyalty to the Qing court where the Manchus were in power! However, he could change his attitude so quickly in front of the new master and then break off...

Inventing Zhi actually shocked Kang Lin! You know, that is the braid that has been with them for most of their lives. It is broken at this moment. It is really a bit decisive! If such a person is not a passionate loyal minister, then he is a powerful and powerful woman in the city! It seems that I have to be very careful when dealing with them next! Because they can betray the Qing court once without any pressure, they can betray themselves a second time with peace of mind!

"Sergeant Cheng, what are you doing? I think that the Holy Emperor of the Qing Dynasty is now on the throne, and the court is full of talented people, and the court is full of people. Today, you openly led the soldiers to cut off their braids, but you are going against the order of your brother Fang Zhonggong. Teaching, learning how to raise an army and rebel?"

With his eyes full of the treacherous move of cutting off his hair and braiding, and his ears full of the rebellious words of annihilating the Tartars, Peng Yushu, the left sentry officer of the Hunan Navy's Central Battalion, faced the sudden defection of friendly troops and the surrounding people with their hair in buns. Weird soldier, the expression on his face can't help but change! Unlike the officers of the Huai Army, who were mostly reckless, the officers of the Hunan Army were mostly composed of scholars who were well-educated in poetry and literature, so they were far more loyal to the Qing court than the former! Therefore, after a brief period of astonishment, the Hunan Army young general immediately drew out his saber silently, preparing to go up and fight Cheng Xuerui and others with his life if they disagreed!
