General Zhang hesitated for a moment, and only spoke after Zhou Tianqi stomped on his other foot.
It turns out that since General Zhang colluded with the Liu family, he has become increasingly negligent in managing the army.
There has been no war in recent years, so he has used various methods to get rid of any disobedient soldiers.
As a result, many people with tempers left.
Once everyone left, he occupied those positions, taking up the space without anyone else, and incidentally, he also received military pay, pocketing a considerable amount of money.
Those who stayed were either just trying to make a living or were from wealthy families and were just loafing around.
"So, in such a large army, you're the boss!" Chu Tianling grew angrier the more he thought about it, and grabbed a cup from the table, smashing it at General Zhang.
"Damn old man!"
General Zhang had a hole smashed in his head, and blood was flowing down his forehead. He lay on the ground, too afraid to speak.
"Tie him up and take him to the playground!"
Zhou Tianqi picked the person up again.
"Puff puff puff!"
Three muffled thuds sounded, followed by a stench that assaulted the senses.
Shen Jiaojiao covered her nose and looked in the direction from which the sound came.
Inside the tent, the woman on the bed was completely wrapped in a blanket.
She had obviously been awake for a while, but she was still hiding under the covers.
Liu Yue had been working hard all night and had woken up long ago; such a big thing had happened.
She was a pawn sent by the head of the Liu family, only outstanding in appearance and with a good figure, used to win over General Zhang.
This time, I didn't dare to move at all. I secretly wrapped myself in the blanket, seeking a little sense of security.
Unfortunately, last night, General Zhang insisted on seeking excitement and trying something new, which caused her to eat a lot of mysterious food.
This time, I really couldn't hold it in any longer.
At first, she tried to hold back, but she just couldn't.
As soon as I relaxed a little, I was surprised to hear one fart after another, and they were so loud.
After enduring it for three minutes, she couldn't take it anymore and suddenly threw off the covers, meeting everyone's disgusted looks.
"Get dressed and come out!" Shen Jiaojiao covered her nose, not wanting to stay a second longer.
They pulled the person away quickly.
Liu Yue nodded quickly, her face turning bright red from being covered.
Shen Jiaojiao and the others lifted the curtain and stepped outside, finally able to breathe in some fresh air.
"Phew~"
The feeling of being alive!
Once Liu Yue saw that everyone had left and she was all alone, she let loose and let herself go.
"Beep beep beep~"
"Puff puff puff~"
"Boohoo!" Twenty-four loud, consecutive farts.
Shen Jiaojiao and the others were standing at the door and hadn't gone far, so they all heard the whole thing.
The tent was just a single layer of cloth, and the twenty or thirty guards surrounding it heard everything.
Chu Tianling didn't want to look at her; she was utterly repulsive.
Only one person was left to wait at a distance for her to come out and take her away, while the rest of the people followed her to the playground.
Under normal circumstances, the training area should be where people practice every day.
But when they arrived at the drill ground, they found that there were no soldiers training there; instead, groups of three or five people were resting around.
It's absolutely a mess.
Although Chu Tianling had never led troops, having lived so many lives, he had done his research on the imperial city's troops in order to survive.
He knew there was a large drum on the side of the playground used for assemblies, so he walked over and started beating it.
In wartime, the sounding of the drum signifies assembly.
"Bang bang bang!"
As the drums sounded, a group of people, who seemed to have appeared from nowhere, slowly gathered together.
Soon the playground was filled with a dense crowd of people.
Chu Tianling was the first to walk onto the stage, his gaze sharp as he looked down at the people below.
He shouted in a loud voice, "I know you are curious about who I am. Now I will tell you that I am His Highness the Crown Prince of the Imperial City!"
The people below started whispering amongst themselves, clearly disregarding him.
These people are already useless.
These past few years, I've just been eating and killing time.
"This is your General Zhang. He is out of office starting today!"
Seeing that his subordinates didn't take him seriously, Chu Tianling decided to make an example of them.
Let Zhou Tianling pull General Zhang onto the stage.
"General Zhang has no regard for military law, treats the army as his own home, creates fictitious positions to make money, and colludes with local authorities. His crimes are too numerous to count. He will be executed in public now!"
Zhou Tianqi picked up a large knife and, in front of everyone, brought it down with a swift motion.
*Pfft*
A fresh human head fell to the ground and rolled to one side.
It started boiling down below.
With General Zhang gone, the group was leaderless, and everyone panicked.
There was even more discussion below.
Chu Tianling raised his hand: "Everyone, be quiet and listen to me!"
"I know that everyone came to the army for various reasons. I won't dwell on what happened before. I will personally take over the army from now on."
"I noticed that everyone's food seems to be not very good, so the first thing I'll do after taking over is to provide everyone with a decent meal."
"The military still has many vacancies. Anyone who is interested can apply. I will personally assess them. If they pass the assessment, they will be hired directly and will receive bonuses according to their positions."
The people below were relieved to hear that the past would not be investigated, since many people had done things that violated discipline.
And I've heard there's a possibility of a promotion and a raise.
Which man doesn't want to achieve something great?
With Chu Tianling's encouragement, the atmosphere below suddenly became heated.
Shen Jiaojiao quickly asked someone to find paper and pens and put them on a table, then called out to the crowd: "Those who want to nominate themselves, come here to sign up!"
"Me! Me! I want to sign up!"
"I want some too! I want some too!"
The guards who had accompanied her quickly surrounded Shen Jiaojiao to maintain order.
The guard looked at the head at his feet, and his legs went weak.
Now that's bad, the person who was supporting me has completely collapsed. What am I going to do now?
At this moment, the guards brought over Liu Yue, who was already dressed.
"Your Highness, the person has been brought here."
Liu Yue blushed and knelt on the ground with a seductive posture: "Greetings, Your Excellency!"
Her voice was alluring, like a seductive little enchantress.
Shen Jiaojiao was a little unhappy: "Speak normally!"
Liu Yue's eyes flickered, and she looked at Shen Jiaojiao with a seductive smile: "Oh! This is just how I am normally, what's wrong with me?"
"Don't make me slap you!"
Tears welled in Liu Yue's eyes: "Waaah, it's just that I've been trained like this since I was little, and no one has ever taught me how to speak normally~"
She cried so pitifully.
"Alright, stop crying! Tell me why Patriarch Liu summoned you here? How many messages have been sent out? Who else is in the family?"
Liu Yue took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and replied in a charming voice, "The higher-ups didn't say anything, they just told me to please the general."
"You have no idea what this old woman is like. She's old, but she still has all sorts of fun things to do. It's so tiring taking care of her!"
"I don't know if anyone lives in my family; I've never seen them since I was a child."
"I have lived in a small room since I was a child. We were fed every day. When we got a little older, someone came to teach us some skills to serve men."
"Then, when they reach a certain age, they are sent to various places to serve all kinds of men."
