"This group of bastards raises!"

Mei Zhihuan slapped the table with a heavy palm, and the paper and pen on the table jumped up in shock. "Inhumanity, animal!"

After cursing a few times, Mei Zhihuan's chest was undulating and her anger was hard to calm down. "Are you all the damn people eating? You actually let a group of thieves come in and out, and you can leave as soon as you want. You haven't caught them for such a long time. Now they have even slaughtered the entire village. Do you still have the face?"

In front of Mei Zhihuan, there were a row of burly men, all of whom were officers from Baoshengbao Township. There were both officers in the barracks, officers in the middle, officers in the horseback riding team, captains of the brigades who did not stop at night, and captains of the various brigades of the You Bingbat.

More than a dozen important generals of the township troupe stood in a row, and everyone was scolded. The township troupe in Baosheng Fort was usually in Macheng, and even in the entire Qihuang Prefecture in eastern Hubei, they were all loud and loud, so they could not give them some face anywhere. Although they were not officers and soldiers of the troupe, they were much more popular than those beggar soldiers in the troupe.

But today, they could only be scolded and didn't dare to raise their heads. Because the Lin Family Village next to Guanghuang Avenue in Xianju Township was slaughtered by thieves in the village. The situation was extremely tragic, and all the men were killed. The thieves even cut off all the men's heads and inserted them on wooden stakes.

The young child was even more stuck on the sharpened wooden stake, and the woman was even more miserable. She rushed to inspect and did not pay back the reward. All the women were humiliated, raped and then killed, which was extremely tragic.

The thieves who caused this killing were not traversed from other places to commit crimes, but have been traversing on Guanghuang Avenue since last year. However, they had only robbed some passers-by business trips and made small fusses. The township group was dispatched several times but failed to catch anyone. It was fine, but this time there was such a big tragedy.

"Waste, a group of wine bags!" Mei Zhihuan was furious. After retiring, he actively ran around to raise funds and established the Baosheng Fort, a village group. This was no longer just a private servant of each family, but to protect the entire Macheng and even the entire Qihuang area in eastern Hubei.

There were many people and fully equipped. Not only was there a cavalry team of hundreds of people, but also a well-trained elite team of Ye Wushou. He even brought a large number of artillery guns from southern Jiangxi, Guangdong and other places, and built a unit of hundreds of people and firearms. Over the past few years, this township regiment has become larger and stronger in size and strength. There are the main barracks formed by recruiting elite troops and the You Wanshou Battalion formed by absorbing refugees. He sent Ye Wushou and the horse team to sweep away the thieves everywhere to resist the entry of the thieves.

He also sent the Yougang to guard the villages and forts, making great contributions to the stability of the land in a village. This has always been the most proud thing about Mei Zhihuan.

But now, under the escort of his country, there is a village that has been slaughtered, not in the dangerous northern mountainous area, but on the edge of the most important avenue leading to the city.

"How much do you know about this group of thieves now? Only you can destroy them?" Mei Zhihuan asked.

"Mr. Mei, this group of thieves have been wandering around between Guanghuang and Huang for more than a year. They have always been cunning and careful. We have been dispatched many times, but every time they have been lost. This time, the thieves are so cruel that we are very angry. But if we want to find them and wipe them out, it is probably not feasible for a while."

"Fried pork, don't make excuses for your incompetence." Mei Zhihuan was very dissatisfied with this answer.

"Three days, I will only give you three days. In three days, I will see you bring the heads of the bandits who killed Linjia Village. I will hang all their heads on the gate of the county town to show them."

“Three days are too short…”

"I'll give you three days."

The officers of the township troop complained, "Three days are too short, and they are more familiar with the Nine-Headed Horse Team stationed in the Queen's City in Linjiazhai before." Some generals began to shirk responsibility.

Mei Zhihuan glared at the man, but she did not blindly protect the Nine-Headed Horse Team.

"It has been happening for so long, why hasn't the Nine-Headed Bird reported the situation yet? Does anyone know what they are doing now?"

Someone replied, "The Nine-Tao Bird Camp goes around the camp in Queen's City every day, but they eat and drink well every day, have three meals a day, and have meat every day. Life is so easy. It is said that the gentry and people in Queen's City have given them thousands of taels of silver. At this moment, they probably hide in the camp and dare not go out."

Mei Zhihuan said, "Immediately send two riders to the Queen's City, let Gong Ji and Ji Ye come to discuss the elimination of this group of thieves."

Xing'an Temple.

The battle is over.

Under the dark night, piles of bonfires were lit in Daxing Temple, and the soldiers of the Nine-Headed Bird Horse Team were cleaning the battlefield.

Liu Jun and Li Chunjiang were both patrolling the battlefield with their long swords, "Die thieves, cut off their heads. Those who are not dead should be tied up and don't kill them."

The doctors in the two teams also began to get busy at this time. They carried the medicine box and directed several soldiers from the Central Banner to check the injuries of the Nine-Headed Bird soldiers. They first evaluated the injuries of the wounded according to what Professor Liu Jun had done during the previous training.

"Well, you kid just wiped a little skin, it's okay. The blood on your clothes is thieves, and you're lucky." The doctor checked Dong Gouzi. The big blood stain on his body looked scary, but when he took off his armor, he only had a little skin trauma. After the arrow that shot him passed through the cotton armor, he only had a little bit of flesh. If you apply a little medicine, it's okay.

"First use this gauze to stop bleeding, and then use clean water and soy sauce to clean the wound, and it will be fine." As he said that, the doctor tied a green cloth strip on Dong Gouzi's arm, which means that it is basically fine and there is no need for subsequent diagnosis and medication.

The team member of the Central Banner next to him looked at Dong Gouzi with envy, and there were three heads at Dong Gouzi's feet. These were all Dong Gouzi's personal results. As soon as the battle ended, Dong Gouzi immediately cut off the heads of the three thieves he killed with a knife.

Fortunately, there were regulations for training. Before the battle ended, soldiers were not allowed to chop people's heads. Moreover, the battle tonight was not too chaotic. He killed three people in total. At first, he shot one of them by bird guns, and later he attacked the hall and shot one of them with bird guns. Finally, with the help of Gou Zuo, he used a long sword to kill one of the injured ones.

In the rest, their army team worked together to kill several heads. Now the heads are placed on the firearms' feet, which is considered the team's collective military merit.

"Brother Dog is powerful, with a head of twenty taels per person. Now you have made a lot of money. Three heads are sixty taels, and it is not considered other military achievements." The township hero of Zhongqi is a drummer. When he was fighting, he followed the doctor to treat the wounded. Although it was much safer, he had many opportunities than the war team. He usually paid less money, and he was rewarded less when fighting.

Dong Gouzi looked proud, "You usually practice drums well, and you can practice bird guns well. As long as you have enough skills, you can also join the war team." He looked at the three bloody heads under his feet, surprisingly without feeling a trace of fear, but only that kind of unstoppable excitement.

Three heads, one is twenty taels, three are sixty taels, no, and one is the leader, and one can support two, then these three are worth eighty taels. Oh my God, eighty taels of silver, how much does it cost? Usually he pays two taels of silver a month, and eighty taels is his pay for forty months, which is equivalent to three years and four months.

He even wondered how he would spend it after getting the money. He first used the money to find a good girl to engage in marriage, and then hired someone at home to build a big house that he had been to three places. Well, he would have to buy a few more acres of land.

Another doctor also glanced at the thief's head under his feet when he passed by and smiled, "What's the point of rewarding money? Donggou has made such a great contribution this time, and he will definitely be promoted when he turns around. Don't forget to treat us to drink wine."

"Sure, certain." Dong Gouzi smiled extremely brightly.

At this time, Liu Jun and Li Chunjiang, who were inspecting the battlefield, came over with several servants. Liu Jun also saw several heads under his feet at a glance.

"It's all your achievements?"

"Reply to the official words, yes."

Liu Jun smiled, "Brother Dog, you are getting more and more promising. You can kill three of them by one, that's great."

At this time, Ye Bushang, behind Liu Jun, stepped forward and looked at the heads a few times, pointed at one of them and said to Liu Jun and the other two, "This is the bandit leader **, the big-sized Magui. Look at his face, he looks very easy to recognize."

When the head was lifted, several people looked at it carefully in the light of fire, and their faces were indeed full of pockmarks. Liu Jun also asked someone to take some alive prisoners and ask them to identify them separately. As a result, it turned out that Dong Gouzi was indeed lucky and actually killed a bandit leader with one shot.

"The clerk claimed the merits of Zhang Donggou, killed the bandit leader Magui, and the two bandits."

The horse clerk who followed Liu Jun quickly picked up the pen to record it truthfully. While recording, he also looked at the surprise, Dong Dog who opened her mouth wide and couldn't speak.

A poor hunter in Dongshan really turned over in a blink of an eye. He usually had good bird guns, and was appreciated by General Liu Qi and often gave advice. Now he also earned face, so he killed three in one battle and killed the bandit leader.

"Donggouzi, what do you want to tell your brothers now?" Liu Jun asked him with a smile.

Dong Gouzi swallowed, but still didn't come back to his senses from this great happiness. Now his mind was full of rewards issued before the war, and those who killed or captured the bandit leader alive would be rewarded with 100 taels of silver!

"Mr. Qi, can I really get one hundred taels of silver?" He said something in his heart, and then Dong Gouzi felt a little regretful. How could he ask such a thing in public? In fact, even if he gave half of the reward, he was satisfied.

Li Chunjiang smiled and patted Dong Gouzi on the shoulder, "Are Jiye and I the kind of person who don't keep our word? Of course, I give it to you, and it's true. One hundred taels, no, three people are 140 taels, and you won't be rewarded with a penny of money. You kid, not only will you reward you as much as possible, but I will also promote you. Jiye, what position is appropriate to promote Dong Gouzi?"

Liu Jun glanced at Dong Gouzi who was already excited and could not speak, "I will reward you for any merits, and rewards and punishments are clearly necessary. Dong Gouzi performed outstandingly this time and had an amazing record. I think he can be promoted to the commander of the sergeant."

Donggouzi was so happy that he couldn't find him anymore, so he asked foolishly, "After referring to the Soldier, will I change to the Groove Gunman?" The Soldier Cai of their ranks is now a Groove Gunman, and is equipped with rockets. The Soldier Zhang is even equipped with a flag gun, a long sword and a tip bow. The Soldier is not equipped with a bird gun. Donggouzi has become accustomed to and likes to change his weapons, and is reluctant to change his weapons.

Liu Jun laughed out loud, "Don't worry, you can continue to use bird guns as the commander."

Ps: Today is the military parade commemorating the 70th anniversary of the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan. Remember to see it, remember history and not forget the national humiliation!
