Since Captain Lu has named him, Ding Meng naturally cannot refuse.
"I don't know what some people are thinking. It's fine if they are not afraid of death, but why do they want to drag us down with them?" someone complained.
"That's right. I just got married and I don't want to die so soon."
Once one person started a conversation, everyone else started complaining.
Gu Huai silently packed up the weapons he had just been given without saying a word.
Lin Sen couldn't help but say, "Didn't we choose to join the army to defend our country? Now the villagers are in trouble, is it wrong for us to help them?
If something happened to your family, would you help?"
Lin Sen's words made several people shut up.
But not everyone thought Lin Sen was right. Ding Meng had been holding back for so long, and now he finally couldn't help it. He said, "If the centurion had called us directly, I wouldn't have any complaints. But now it's because of Lian Qi that the centurion chose us. Don't we even have the chance to complain?
"Lin Sen, you are just Lian Qi's dog, but you can't just follow your master's orders. Aren't you afraid?"
Lin Sen's expression changed. It would be a lie to say he wasn't afraid.
He heard that bandits kill people without blinking an eye, so he was naturally scared to death.
He is the youngest in the family and was spoiled by his family to the point of being lawless. He was thrown into this military camp because he made a mistake.
His family said that if he couldn't change his bad habits, he wouldn't have to go back.
His cousin is watching here, so he can’t lie even if he wants to!
But Gu Huai is his brother, even if he is really afraid of death, he cannot help his brother.
"I……"
"Everyone is afraid of death, and everyone has relatives at home. But don't the people persecuted by bandits have relatives and are they not afraid of death?
Since we receive our military pay from the hard-earned money of the people, we should serve the people.
No matter what you think, I will do it.
If you don't want to go, you can go do something else after you leave the barracks. I won't force you." Gu Huai said.
"Lian Qi, you are crazy. Don't try to show off by yourself. Those people are not ordinary people." Lin Sen said anxiously.
Ding Meng sneered: "Who is Lian Qi? He fought against a hundred of us alone and defeated all of us. Naturally, he is not afraid."
Gu Huai said nothing more and walked out with his weapon.
Lin Sen thought about it, picked up a knife and chased after Gu Huai.
Ding Meng couldn't help but sneer when he saw Lin Sen following Gu Huai. If someone didn't know, they would think Gu Huai was the sergeant.
Gu Huai is a nuisance in their team. If he can be eliminated now, he will have less trouble in the future.
"Centurion."
Centurion Lu came over at some point, and Ding Meng was startled and called out hurriedly.
"Why are you all here? Why did I see Lian Qi and Lin Sen go out just now?" Centurion Lu said.
Ding Meng wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "They are a little anxious. Let's go over and join them right away."
Centurion Lu curled his lips and said, "In fact, it is inevitable that there will be damage in this kind of thing. You just need to take care of yourselves."
Ding Meng thought of something and looked at Centurion Lu in surprise.
What does he mean by this...?
"Did I say anything just now?" Centurion Lu changed the subject.
What else does Ding Meng not understand? Captain Lu wants Gu Huai to die!
Now that Centurion Lu said so, he knew what to do.
"Let's go find Lian Qi and the others," said Ding Meng.
"Sergeant, what did the centurion say to you just now?" someone asked curiously.
The main reason was that Ding Meng's expression became very strange after hearing what Captain Lu said. Everyone was very curious, so they asked someone who was usually close to Ding Meng to come over and ask Ding Meng.
Ding Meng's expression changed as he said, "Centurion, tell us to be careful." He knew some people wouldn't believe him, so he added, "Of course, if we can successfully suppress the bandits this time, everyone will be rewarded. Of course, as the squad leader, I will have the greatest contribution. Do you have any objections?"
"No objection, how could we have any objection?" Everyone laughed dryly. "If the bandit suppression is successful, it's all thanks to your good leadership, Sergeant."
Ding Meng glanced at everyone and smiled proudly: "I remember everything you said."
When the group arrived at the gate of the military camp, they saw Gu Huai and Lin Sen waiting for them.
In the military camp, no one can act on their own without orders from above.
Gu Huai was aware of this, so he didn't dare to leave without his consent.
In fact, he hoped that Gu Huai would act on his own, so that Gu Huai would have another crime to charge.
"Captain, what should we do now?" Gu Huai asked, "If you don't want to go, I can..."
"No need. We are all in the same team. How can we allow you to be the only hero?" Ding Meng said.
"Okay." Gu Huai responded indifferently.
"I wonder what the sergeant's plan is?" Gu Huai asked.
Ding Meng was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses.
Plan? He had absolutely no plan to eliminate the bandits.
All he had been thinking about was how to kill Gu Huai without anyone noticing and then frame him on those unscrupulous bandits.
However, he also knew that with Gu Huai's strength, it was impossible to prove a conflict with him.
No one knows who will die by then.
"I thought about it and the only way to easily get rid of those bandits is to have people pretend to be civilians and pass by the bandits' hideout, then wait for them to be robbed, find the right opportunity to get into their hiding place and then root them out." Ding Meng said.
Gu Huai looked at Ding Meng and thought that he had thought that Ding Meng only had brute force and probably wouldn't be able to think of any good ideas. He didn't expect that at this time their ideas would coincide.
"But the bandits will at most just rob people on the road and won't bring people into their territory, unless..." Gu Huai paused and looked at Lin Sen. In fact, he already had an idea.
"Unless what?" Lin Sen couldn't help but get anxious. How could Gu Huai only finish his words halfway? It was really annoying.
"Unless someone dresses up as a girl, and she's a pretty girl, maybe she can attract their attention," said Gu Huai.
Everyone is familiar with the story of bandits robbing beautiful women.
Lin Sen clapped his hands and exclaimed, "Brother Lian, you really have a great idea, but who should we let dress up the girl?"
He looked around and saw that everyone was a rough man with rude behavior and a big and strong build. They didn't look like little girls at all.
"you."
"you!"
Gu Huai looked at Ding Meng, and Ding Meng also looked at Gu Huai.
He really didn't expect that he and Gu Huai could reach a consensus on their ideas at this rare time.
