There were so many complicated things and Zhang Shixun had to do so many things. He focused on the big things and let go of the small things. All he did was train the troops.
Zhang Shixun arrived at the First Army before dawn. When the drums sounded, the officers ran quickly to the playground. More than two months of training were very effective. They had developed a habit of training under Zhang Shixun.
When the roll call was taken, everyone was present except the commander of the fifth command who was about to leave.
Zhang Shixun was very satisfied, but his face showed no expression.
"Look at you! It's only been two days, and you all look exhausted. I gave you a day off so you could rest... What's the matter? You're already indulging yourself as soon as you get home?"
Zhang Shixun walked up to Gao Yanei with a stern face and lifted his chin with his hand. "Oh! Gao Du Yu Hou, your chin has become pointed, and your face is pale... Tsk tsk! Can you tell me what's going on?"
"My Lord! This matter is not worth mentioning. It's all caused by the women in my family. It's okay. I'll be able to recover in a day or two." Gao Yanei puffed out his chest and answered loudly.
He stared at Zhang Shixun with provocative eyes.
There was a sudden burst of laughter on the playground.
"Shut up!" Zhang Shixun didn't expect Gao Yanei to be so shameless and reveal his private affairs in front of so many people.
Seeing everyone laughing, Zhang Shixun became angry and shouted, "Everyone, turn right and run!"
The officers were out of breath after running so long.
In order to punish them, Zhang Shixun specially added fuel to the fire and made them run two more laps than usual.
After the race, Zhang Shixun stood in front of the team and pointed at the officers who were out of breath and said, "Follow me, you will be blessed in the future."
This sentence was incomprehensible. The officers were confused and looked at him with wide eyes.
"Military commander! The 'fu' you are talking about is the 'fu' in 'tofu', right?" Someone in the team muttered in a low voice.
The man thought that he spoke in a low voice and the military commander could not hear him, but he did not expect that Zhang Shixun had sensitive ears and still heard it.
"Who's speaking? Stand up!"
No one came out. Zhang Shixun snorted coldly and said, "If you don't stand up, each officer present will be punished with ten military sticks."
"Ah!" The officers were stunned.
Are you still being unreasonable?
"Military judge!"
"arrive!"
"I will count to three. If the man who just spoke doesn't stand up, he will be punished by military law."
"yes!"
"One...!" Zhang Shixun stretched out a finger.
"Two...!" He stretched out another finger.
Before he could raise his third finger, an officer stepped out from the crowd.
"Commander, it was me who said that just now." The officer came in front of Zhang Shixun and said while standing at attention.
"Who was it I thought? It turned out to be the black turtle!"
"Replying to the commander! My name is not Black Turtle."
"Oh! Not Black Turtle." Zhang Shixun walked around him.
"My name is Hao Twelve." Black Bie couldn't stand the pressure brought to him by the military leader, and sweat began to appear on his head.
"Hao Twelve, that's a decent name. It sounds better than Black Turtle." Zhang Shixun squinted at him and asked, "Why didn't you stand up immediately?"
"I... I'm afraid of being punished by the military commander." Black Bie's voice became lower and lower.
"You sound like a sissy, not like a man with balls... Speak louder!" Zhang Shixun put his face close to him and said viciously.
"I'm afraid of being punished by the military commander." Black Bie risked his life, opened his eyes wide, and roared at the top of his lungs.
"This looks half right." Zhang Shixun stretched out a finger and wiped his face. Because he was too close to this guy, his saliva sprayed on his face.
"You were afraid of my punishment at first, so why did you stand up in the end?" Zhang Shixun asked with his hands behind his back.
"I don't want my brothers to be punished for me. A man should take responsibility for his actions." Hei Bie shouted at the top of his lungs to avoid being called a sissy by the military leader.
"Oh! You're quite responsible... Military Judge, drag him away and give him ten blows with the military stick."
The military judge came over, pinned him to the ground and started beating him.
After the ten blows of the military sticks, Hei Bie stood up with gritted teeth.
"Secretary! I'll give Hao a reward of twelve copper coins and five strings of cash. I'll record it in the account first and pay it out with the military pay at the end of the month."
"yes!"
The officers were confused. The reward was a bit strange.
When Hei Bie heard the reward of two strings of cash, he felt so confused that he couldn't even feel the pain on his butt.
Ten military sticks in exchange for five strings of cash, that's totally worth it!
His monthly military salary was only ten strings of cash.
Their expressions all fell into Zhang Shixun's eyes. He couldn't help but laugh in his heart. I am the boss of the First Army. You bastards are under my command. I can do whatever I want to you. I don't believe you will not obey me.
"Hao Twelve, do you know why you were beaten with a military stick?" Zhang Shixun asked.
"Replying to the commander, I violated discipline and made sarcastic remarks in private within the team."
"Well! So you know that you have violated military discipline." Zhang Shixun snorted coldly.
Hei Bie shuddered inwardly, not daring to respond, and stood straight.
What if the military commander finds fault again and says that he committed the crime knowingly, which is a more serious crime, then he will be in trouble again.
Zhang Shixun slowed down his tone and asked him, "Do you know why I rewarded you with five strings of cash?"
"My Lord, I don't know."
"Fool!" Zhang Shixun kicked him and shouted, "This is a commendation for defending your colleagues and for being willing to stand up and face military punishment."
When Black Turtle heard this, his face turned red with excitement and he shouted, "Thank you, Army Commander, for the reward."
"Get in line!" Zhang Shixun ordered.
"Yes!" Black Turtle responded, holding his head high and returning to the queue.
"Everyone in the First Army is a comrade. What is a comrade? Who can tell me?"
