The Lingnan soldiers were originally best at disaster relief work.
Now that it's been snatched away by these natives from the capital, how could they not feel resentful?
They clearly knew the Marquis first, but now none of them are as popular with him as those greenhorn recruits.
They should be the ones doing the hard and tiring work of disaster relief.
Why should I be relegated to doing easy tasks in the military?
That's not fair!
Xiong Er was beaten so badly that he didn't dare to fight back; he knew he was in the wrong.
Seeing that the fight had gone on for a while, Cheng Hu quickly went up to stop them.
"Alright, alright, Lao Zhang, Xiong Er didn't mean it, he didn't want us to have it so easy."
Zhang San roared in frustration, his voice choked with sobs.
"Stop pretending to be a good person. You two went to the Marquis's mansion for a meeting, but neither of you tried to get a chance to do anything."
"Now the brothers can only do easy work. How can you two face your brothers and the people of Chengxi Village?"
"Especially you, Xiong Er, why don't you dare to fight Zhao Hu?"
"That son of a bitch may be the Marquis's student, but you're the Marquis's first subordinate."
"When you went to war with the Marquis, that bastard was just a lowly soldier."
"Why the hell are you afraid of him?"
Xiong Er covered his face and muttered to himself.
"You bastard, if you have the guts, why don't you hit someone in front of the Marquis? You only know how to bully your own kind."
It took Cheng Hu a lot of effort to persuade the two of them to stop.

"Brothers, I'm sorry to trouble you. You'll have to endure some hardship and do some easy work first."
"Next time there's a mission, I, Lao Cheng, will definitely help my brothers get the chance to suffer and endure hardship."
"We must endure more hardship and fatigue, so that those greenhorn recruits from Beijing won't look down on us!"
Upon hearing this, the soldiers finally smiled.
"Alright, we trust General Cheng. If there's anything like this in the future, make sure we're the first to go!"
Seeing his men regain their fighting spirit, Cheng Hu finally got to work with satisfaction.
Chen Shaoan, meanwhile, watched them, lost in thought.
How can there be people vying to do the work?
Seeing him lost in thought, Liu Yi tugged at his sleeve.
"Old Chen, hurry up and get to work, or someone else will have taken it all."
"Hurry, hurry! Our team absolutely cannot be worse than the others!"
Seeing everyone else working enthusiastically and eagerly, Chen Shaoan stopped thinking about it too much.
I don't know why, but everyone is scrambling for work, so I'll do the same.
