Chapter 869: Guard Team

The expressions of several uninformed corps commanders turned a little darker. They were about to step forward to argue with the new leader, but were stopped by corps commander Luo, who explained a few words in a low voice.

"What, so fierce?"

The subsequent corps commanders were shocked. They really couldn't tell that this young boy with a golden elixir level of cultivation would hit someone even if they disagreed with him!

"You'd better shut up and be careful and you'll end up in trouble later."

After Luo Wu Zhang said this, he quickly shut up and kept silent. The people around him didn't dare to frown at Chu Yang anymore.

Originally, Chu Yang thought that there were still some useful people in this escort team, so he asked them to run around to see what they were like. Unexpectedly, he asked Liu Changtian, the civil servant of the escort team, and found out that their discipline was so lax. Even the Chinese officials in the camp were bullied into this state!

"These people are rotten to the core. I'm afraid they are no longer useful!"

Chu Yang sighed and spoke to Qin Yi.

Qin Yi also frowned. She didn't like these soldiers even more. If Chu Yang hadn't been the leader, she would have kicked these people out no matter what.

After pondering for a moment, Chu Yang already had an idea in his mind, and said coldly to the people outside the room: "Most of you people are cowardly and weak, but you still bully the weak and the elderly. What is the appearance of this guard camp?" I'm not inferior to you scum, those who do not observe military discipline in the camp and are immoral. Today, one by one, all of you should get out of here. If you stay, don't let me find out what bad deeds you have done. Otherwise, it will not be a military law. It's so simple. Also, I have to remind everyone that now that I have become the commander, I will naturally rectify military discipline, practice strictly, and even go out of the city to fight to the death with the Wuji Sect monster. In the future, I will not live as comfortable a life as before. If you want to stay, you must think clearly. If you don’t want to stay, you can leave. I will never stop you! "

As soon as these words came out, there was an explosion in the school grounds. None of them expected that Chu Yang would actually want to kick them out because of a half-dead old man!

Commander Luo hesitated for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, in the past, military discipline was lax, and the soldiers did make many mistakes. Please be patient, Commander. We will definitely not dare to make the same mistake again in the future."

"Yes, we just made a small mistake, and they just want to kick us out. The new official's three fires after taking office must have burned too much!"

"That's good. Let's talk about it. There are a few people in this camp who have made no mistakes. Could it be that the commander wants to drive us all away? After that, wouldn't you become the bare commander?"

"Hahaha, that's right. If there was no one under my command, it would be a shame to grandma's house."

The officers and soldiers of the battalion couldn't help laughing as they talked, and there was a joyful atmosphere on the school grounds.

It seems to be rotten to the core!

Chu Yang and Qin Yi looked at each other and saw the disappointment in the other's eyes.

"Forget it, let's start from scratch. There is no cure for these people."

Chu Yang sighed, looked up at the crowd, and shouted: "What I said is very clear. If you want to get out, get out quickly. There will be no waste and scum here. After a quarter of an hour, I will check the resume of anyone who remains. If If you have any questions, get a hundred military sticks first!”

Everyone who was laughing just now was suddenly stunned. They looked at Chu Yang in disbelief. Seeing that his face was serious and he didn't look like he was joking, they finally realized that this new commander really wanted to drive them away!

At this moment, everyone was panicked.

The crowd was silent for a moment, and some people thought to themselves that it was impossible to stay due to their bad records, so they thought of packing up and leaving.

However, someone reminded: "We can leave if we want, but last month's military pay hasn't been paid yet, so how can we leave for nothing?"

"That's right. Before we leave, we have to pay the military salary first!"

"I don't want to stay here for a long time. If I want to leave, I'll pay the severance package first. Otherwise, the whole family will be spoiled by the northwest wind?"

The school grounds screamed in chaos.

Chu Yang looked at the old man in the room and asked, "Old man, was it true that the military pay was not paid last month?"

"Commander, just call me Liu Changtian."

The old man stood up with his walking stick and said angrily: "These guys are paid and don't work. I think we should just let them go and save their military pay to recruit new people."

"Mr. Liu, you should be in charge of this military pay. I wonder if there is any left in the account?" Qin Yi interjected and asked.

Liu Changtian hesitated for a moment, nodded and said: "There is some military pay left, but the commander really wants to pay it to them?"

Chu Yang sighed and said: "If you have money, you can pay it as severance pay, lest these guys don't get the money, they will definitely go out and talk nonsense, saying that we are deducting military pay, ruining our reputation, and asking them to get out as soon as possible." Recruit new people.”

"Then just follow what the commander said."

Liu Changtian nodded, stood up, picked up a shovel, walked not far outside the house, and began to dig up the ground.

"What is this for?"

Everyone looked at it curiously and started whispering.

After a while, Liu Changtian dug up the soil and took out a box from the pit.

The box was covered in mud, probably made of iron, and had rust stains on it. It seemed like it had been buried in the ground for a long time.

Liu Changtian walked up to Chu Yang and reached out to open the lid of the iron box.

Everyone stretched their necks to look inside.

"Commander, this box contains 28,000 Tongbao, which have been saved over the years. The city lord has not allocated the military salary last month, so why not use these to advance?"

Liu Changtian handed the box to Chu Yang.

When I heard that there were nearly 30,000 Tongbao in this box, there was a commotion on the school grounds, and many people cursed angrily.

"That stupid old guy has hidden so much money. He must be trying to keep it for himself!"

"Hey, he refused to hand over his broken leg last time. It seems he kept it to buy himself a coffin!"

"Damn it, if we had taken it out earlier, we would have just split up and dispersed. Why do we have to stay here and be so arrogant!"

Everyone was talking to each other, complaining with unkind expressions.

Chu Yang calculated that so many Tongbao were enough for severance pay, so he waved his hand and said: "Stop arguing, those who want to get out, stand on the left, and those who want to stay, stand on the right, please move!"

Perhaps due to financial incentives, everyone cooperated a lot.

Soon, the school grounds were divided into two distinct groups.

The camp on Chu Yang's left is very large, accounting for about nine-tenths of the total number of people. These people are basically ruffians who have violated military discipline a lot and have endured hardships. So after hearing Chu Yang say that military discipline must be strict in the future, They had to deal with the Wuji Sect demons, so they became timid and just wanted to take the severance package and leave.

On his right hand side, there were only twenty or thirty people left. Most of these people were highly disciplined and had no bad deeds. Most of them were still a little angry and felt that although they would suffer a lot if they stayed, they would still be able to survive. It has a great future and is a shortcut to Nanshan, so after weighing it, I chose to stay.

His eyes swept over the faces of these twenty or thirty people, and Chu Yang remembered their looks in his heart. Among them, Luo Wu Zhang and Chen Ergou chose to stay. It seemed that they still had great hopes for Chu Yang. expected.

After the grouping was completed, Chu Yang called Chief Luo Wu over and said, "Mr. Liu has a physical disability, so I will pay you the severance pay."

"As you command!"

Although it was a small job, Chief Luo was very excited. He felt that this was a sign of the commander's trust in him, and he happily took the box from Liu Changtian's hand.

Chu Yang and Liu Changtian calculated a number that was neither too high nor too low, and asked Luo Wu to distribute it to those who were leaving.

Liu Changtian warned: "Be careful and don't make a mistake. If there is one missing, you are the only one who can ask."

Luo Wuchang smiled bitterly and said, "If Mr. Liu doesn't worry, you can just watch. I will never make any mistakes."

"good."

Liu Changtian was not polite, moved a small bench over, and stared at Luo Wu Chang as he handed out money.

As the severance pay was distributed, there were fewer and fewer people on the campus. Those who had received the money returned to their barracks, packed their things and left the military camp.

After everyone left, Chu Yang said to the people left on the school grounds: "Everyone, please stop standing around. Let's find a place to discuss the rest of the matter."

When paying out the severance package, Chu Yang had already chatted with Liu Changtian and roughly figured out the situation of the remaining people.

Those who dared to stay were basically well-behaved, diligent people who had never made any mistakes, so Chu Yang understood this and did not mention checking their resumes again.

Hearing what Chu Yang said, the people on the other side breathed a sigh of relief, guessing that Chu Yang no longer planned to get to the bottom of their mistakes.

To the south of the school grounds, there is a rather elegant small courtyard, which is a residence prepared for the commander of the escort team.

Chu Yang thought it was very convenient to have such a place to live, so he took everyone there and planned to have a small meeting.

However, when he led people into the courtyard, he discovered that this small courtyard had been abandoned for a long time because no one had lived in it. The courtyard was overgrown with weeds, and even the eaves were covered with moss, making it very decadent.

Fortunately, the house is not damaged inside. Except for a lot of dust on the furniture, it is still okay for people to live in it.

"It's okay if you have nothing to do. Let's clean up this place first. I also happen to know about the situation of the escort team."

Chu Yang was not picky, he rolled up his sleeves and started weeding the yard.

Everyone was just about to show off, but when they heard what Chu Yang said, they all rolled up their sleeves and started fucking passionately.

During this period, Chu Yang finally understood the overall situation of the escort team.

It is said that at its peak, the Lanjiang City Guards had a total of 300 people at full capacity, and each member of the camp was a master who could stand alone. Their average cultivation level was in the middle stage of foundation building, so they were considered a very large force.

Seven or eight years ago, the people who served as commanders were also of extraordinary strength, at least all were monks in the late Golden Core stage. Even the three commanders in the camp were very strong, and they basically all had Golden Core stage cultivation.

Such a powerful leader, coupled with so many powerful grassroots soldiers, is enough to intimidate the lawless people around Lanjiang City.

However, during Dongfang Hao's years of seclusion, the leader of the escort and the three commanders were dissatisfied with the staff of the city lord's palace and finally chose to leave. As a result, the officers and soldiers of the escort were alienated and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.
