Chapter 829 The enemy attacks

Pei Yu stood on the stage with a gloomy face, looking at the soldiers standing below.

There are nearly 100,000 garrisons in Shanling Pass. If all of them are present, the wide square in front of them should be packed. However, the square in front of them seems a little empty. Although Pei Yu did not count the number of people, he could see with his naked eyes that almost half of them did not arrive before the drum stopped.

The drum sound is an order. When you hear the drum sound, no matter what you are doing, you should come and gather immediately. Especially Shanling Pass is a border pass, and there may be an enemy invasion at any time. The garrison here should react quickly.

However, it is not the case now.

Pei Yu turned his head and looked in the direction of the camp. There were still many soldiers there who were slowly tidying up their clothes. Some were walking towards this side slowly, and even chatting while walking, with a smile on their faces, without any sense of urgency.

Such a situation was rare in Shanling Pass before, or it had never happened before, but now it happened in front of him, when he first assembled the team after becoming the commander of Shanling Pass.

Pei Yu could understand the strangeness of this after a little thought.

Pei Yu glanced at Chen Yufei's residence. Of course, he didn't see anything because the distance was too far, but this did not affect his current thoughts.

"Where is the law enforcement team?!" Pei Yu said coldly.

"Yes!"

"Anyone who has not arrived will be dealt with according to military law and punished with twenty strokes of the cane!" Pei Yu said.

......

The people in the law enforcement team looked at Pei Yu hesitantly and did not immediately agree.

"Hmm?" Pei Yu looked over coldly.

"Sir, there are too many people who have not arrived. Should we wait a little longer?" The leader of the law enforcement team said hesitantly.

The law enforcement team has always been impartial and even cruel in an army, but this time, they all hesitated, because there were too many people who had not arrived. In the face of the war, such a large-scale punishment of soldiers may cause very bad consequences.

"No need to wait, it's decided." Pei Yu said firmly.

"Yes!" Seeing Pei Yu's firm attitude, the captain of the law enforcement team said nothing more.

Afterwards, the captain of the law enforcement team led his men to stand at the edge of the parade ground. Seeing several soldiers walking slowly, he said directly: "Catch them!"

The members of the law enforcement team immediately stepped forward and subdued the soldiers who were walking slowly.

"What are you going to do?" The soldiers struggled.

However, because they were facing the members of the law enforcement team, these soldiers did not dare to struggle too fiercely. After all, the law enforcement team was the only one in the entire army that could kill their own people. If other soldiers killed their own people, they would definitely be punished, but the members of the law enforcement team could raise their butcher knives against their comrades. These soldiers were also afraid of angering these members of the law enforcement team and then raising their butcher knives against them.

"Before the drums stopped, you failed to gather in time and violated military discipline. You should be punished with twenty strokes of the cane." The captain of the law enforcement team said coldly.

The soldiers looked at Pei Yu on the stage. It was obvious that this order must have been issued by Pei Yu.

"We are a bit late because we have diarrhea."

"That's right, we didn't do it on purpose."

"Sir, you can't do this. If you want to establish your authority, you can't deliberately use us as a target."

The soldiers were obviously not convinced and shouted at Pei Yu. It was obvious that they didn't take Pei Yu, their new commander, too seriously.

"You know the rules of the army." Pei Yu said coldly, "As for whether you have diarrhea or not, you know it in your heart. I don't want to say too much. Rules are rules."

"Fight!"

"Fight!" The captain of the law enforcement team immediately ordered.

Pa Pa Pa!

The sound of beating soon sounded, accompanied by the screams of several soldiers. The people of the law enforcement team were merciless.

The movement here also successfully attracted everyone present. Those who were originally slow to come to gather subconsciously quickened their pace. However, when they came, they were also waiting for the sticks in the hands of the law enforcement team.

The screams on the training ground were endless, and even Chen Yufei, who was far away at home, heard it.

"He actually dared to fight?" Chen Yufei said in surprise.

In Chen Yufei's opinion, Pei Yu had just become the commander-in-chief, and it was the time when he needed to win people's hearts. It was impossible for him to punish so many people at once, but Pei Yu did it anyway, and it seemed that no one was missed. All those who were late were beaten.

"This guy is really a fool, but it's good this way. After this beating, I'm afraid many people will complain about him in their hearts." Chen Yufei said with a smile.

If it was just a few people who were beaten, it would not have much impact, but Pei Yu beat so many people now. Those who were beaten would easily feel resentful in their hearts. Even if they didn't dare to confront Pei Yu in person, it would definitely affect Pei Yu's control over the entire army.

"Sir, this is just the beginning, there will be a lot of fun later." A general said to Chen Yufei proudly: "We will also let some soldiers take the initiative to cause trouble and provoke those who are close to Pei Yu. As for those big soldiers, you know that they are very angry and will take action if provoked. Then we will take the opportunity to make things bigger and involve more people. I will see how Pei Yu handles it. Will he punish those who are close to him? If he doesn't punish them, it will inevitably make people think that he is too partial and affect his prestige. If he punishes them together, it will make those who are close to him feel resentful. If this happens a few more times, he will lose all his prestige in the army and no one will be willing to join him."

"Well, your idea is good. I didn't expect you to be so quick-witted." Chen Yufei praised.

"Thank you for your praise, it's all because of your good teaching." The general said with a smile.

While Chen Yufei and others were talking in secret, Pei Yu was watching the soldiers who had been beaten return to the team with cold eyes. From their expressions, Pei Yu could feel their resentment towards him.

Pei Yu didn't care about this. Wu Fan didn't let him take this position to be a good guy. Chen Yufei had been operating here for many years. Pei Yu had long realized the difficulties he would face. The situation in front of him was not beyond his expectations.

"Everyone..." After everyone stood up, Pei Yu spoke up, ready to meet and talk with the defenders of Shanling Pass as the commander.

However, just as he opened his mouth, a fast horse rushed to the city gate. The soldiers on the horse controlled the horse to run fast and shouted loudly.

"Urgent report!"

"The army of the Black Water Kingdom is coming! The enemy has launched an attack!"

Everyone present was shocked.
