Not only were the soldiers puzzled, but many in the ranks were also stunned after hearing this, and they also let out a blank "Ah!"
No, what are you poking?
The once majestic and imposing mountain changed its expression, shrinking its neck like a quail, its previous imposing manner completely gone.
His face was pale, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
"W-What are you going to do?!"
Zhan Xinjia crossed his arms and sneered.
“From today onwards, anyone who disobeys me, commits a crime, or thinks they have the power to provoke me will be punished by being stabbed in the butt with a knife! If you have this interest, feel free to cause trouble, be arrogant, I will absolutely satisfy you.”
Everyone: "..."
Holy crap!
They usually get a few lashes for making mistakes, which is not a big deal, and they can get by. Occasionally, they might commit a minor offense, which is not a big deal. This has led to a lot of people in the unit who gamble or secretly drink.
But now the rule has been changed to stab someone in the buttocks with a knife if they get caught. Who would dare to break the rules then?!
Is this person even human? Does this person have any conscience at all?!
They wouldn't dare try even if they had eight hundred lives. Forget the pain, it's the shame! Anyone who's ever had their backside stabbed by Commander Zhan would probably never be able to hold their head high in front of their brothers again.
Those who were watching were terrified, not to mention the perpetrators, who felt as if the sky had fallen.
"Damn it! Commander Zhan, please give me a chance! I won't dare to do it again next time, please let it go this time."
"I don't qualify."
"Commander Zhan, please spoil us one more time!!"
"You can beat me dozens of times to vent your anger, but this... this ass is really not a place to poke."
Even the mountain was terrified, awkwardly covering its buttocks with one hand and wiping the cold sweat from its forehead with the other.
"Um... is it too late for me to pack my things and go home right now? Or you could beat me up and kick me out..."
That's obviously too late.
The dark-skinned soldier who had been grabbed by Zhan Xinjia gave a simple, honest laugh, then went up and slashed several times with lightning speed, leaving the men hopping around on the ground like toads.
Suddenly, a chorus of "quacks" filled the air...
The scene was so bloody and brutal that even these seasoned veterans covered their eyes, bared their teeth, and dared not look any longer.
This is worse than killing them.
The few captains who were watching exchanged serious glances, and a sudden warmth, a surge of conscience, welled up within them…
Suddenly I realized that I've always been too soft-hearted and too moral.
Although his soldiers often whispered among themselves that they were too strict and brutal, compared to this girl today—
They're practically bodhisattvas, aren't they?
This guy is the real devil!
Incredibly, they found a sliver of comfort in Zhan Xinjia.
Hehe, looks like we brothers are still pretty kind after all.
Zhan Xinjia had no idea what they were thinking. Anyway, she had done everything she wanted to do. Playing with the fish charm in her hand, she leisurely walked up to the stands and calmly began her day's training.
This time, no one dared to be the first to step forward. They were all big, burly men, as honest and obedient as rabbits.
Zhan Xinjia nodded with satisfaction.
Out of the corner of my eye, I glanced at another marked-out area, where the soldiers seemed to be left unattended. Some were sparring with each other, some were lying on the ground leisurely sunbathing, and others had fallen asleep.
Zhan Xinjia frowned.
"What's that over there...?"
"Those are General Zhan's former personal guards. They don't belong to the Canghan garrison and don't train with us; they're just nominally here. Moreover, these guys don't listen to anyone's orders except for the Tiger Tally. Even General Qu can't really control them, so we've just let them roam free."
The dark-skinned soldier quickly explained.
Zhan Xinjia's heart stirred slightly, but she didn't say anything more.
Just as the midday training session was temporarily ending, she turned to leave, but then suddenly remembered something and turned back.
"May I have your name?"
This soldier is a bit dark-skinned, but he's quite clever and might come in very useful.
And why does she look a little familiar?
The dark-skinned soldier grinned broadly, revealing a set of white teeth. He looked silly, and his clear, big eyes were full of honesty.
"Don't you remember me? Little Sister Azhi, no... I can't call you that now, Commander Zhan, I'm Wangcai!"
Zhan Xinjia's eyes widened in shock.
"Wangcai?!"
This silly face instantly reminded me of the boy in the black leather straw hat from Linshui Village in my memory, only darker and stronger than the one in my memory.
"Wait, Wangcai, what are you doing here?"
Upon hearing Zhan Xinjia's question, Wangcai scratched the back of his head in confusion, his tone puzzled.
"I remember I said I would definitely come to find you when you left with Brother Er Gou."
Hehe, but since you're all in the capital, it's too far and I'd be too embarrassed to bother you. Luckily, Canghan City is recruiting garrison troops, so I'm joining to earn some military merits and see if I can get transferred to the capital. Then I can hang out with you guys again!
At this point, Wangcai's smile became even more hearty.
Zhan Xinjia: "..."
This one is even more important. She thought that parting words were just polite talk, but she didn't expect that the other person was serious.
Regardless, Zhan Xinjia was still quite happy to meet an acquaintance in such a remote and harsh place. At least it made her feel that she wasn't alone and that someone was with her.
There were too many soldiers in the camp, so they mostly ate in their own large tents.
People like Zhan Xinjia were able to eat at a place specifically for junior officers.
As she led Qiaoqiao inside, the other captains she had met before were gossiping animatedly.
"Oh dear, the food doesn't look very good today. Did the young couple have another fight? Sigh, I thought I could get a good meal by taking advantage of our military doctor."
"Don't even mention it. They argue every three days and fight every five days. It's really weird that they still haven't broken up even after all this."
"What are you all worrying about? I think it's only a matter of time before they get together. Maybe we brothers will even be able to attend their wedding!"
At this point, everyone burst into laughter.
Someone with sharp eyes saw Zhan Xinjia walk in and immediately offered her half of the table, greeting her repeatedly.
"Xiao Zhan, Miss Meng, come and sit here!"
Zhan Xinjia didn't hesitate and sat down without hesitation. Qiaoqiao went to help serve the rice and dishes, and she could gossip about their conversation about the "charming military doctor and pretty cook".
It sounded really impressive, and she was quite curious about it.
Work is work, but don't forget about a wonderful life!
Who were you talking about just now?
As soon as she asked, the captains exchanged lewd glances and laughed, some cracking melon seeds while others rubbed their hands together.
"Xiao Zhan, you're new here, so you probably don't know this~"
Just two months ago, a handsome but cold-faced physician suddenly arrived here. He seemed to be of rather unusual status, and even General Qu spoke to him with a gentle and pleasant demeanor.
Tsk tsk, that physician was followed by a beautiful young woman. No matter how much the physician scolded her, she wouldn't leave. She was so persistent! A devoted woman with no lover!
What?! What's all this?
Zhan Xinjia was completely confused. "No, how good is the physician's medical skills? They can't just be focused on him running away while she chases him, can they?"
When the medical skills were mentioned, everyone gave a thumbs up and expressed their great admiration.
"Our Lady Miaoyu's prescription is truly miraculous, bringing the dead back to life and curing the disease instantly!"
Zhan Xinjia: "..."
Zhan Xinjia: "I suddenly feel like going home."
