Fortunately, Bastard A didn't continue to disturb Wang Tiao, so the fire in his heart didn't burn.
Bastard A didn't say anything else. He just looked at Wang Zhuo and waved his hand outside, urging him to leave quickly and not delay the matter. He was afraid that General Wan couldn't wait and would scold everyone.
Wang Zhuo hurriedly turned around and slipped out of the tent. The moment he stepped out, he let out a long sigh of relief, sighing as if he had climbed out of hell.
He took a few steps, but he couldn't help but feel annoyed. He turned around and spat at the ground. His voice wasn't loud, as if only he could hear it. However, he was a little worried. He was afraid that Bastard A would hear him and think that he hated him.
Therefore, Wang Chuo would not be able to stay under Bastard A. If he made any mistakes in his work, Bastard A would seize the opportunity to punish him.
There were a few sentries at the entrance of the tent. They probably didn't hear him. Wang Zhuo pretended to be careless and glanced at them a few times. He felt that they weren't paying attention to him.
Thus, Wang Zhuo walked forward with ease, wishing he could step into his own tent and let a few new recruits fetch a few buckets of water to wash off the foul air on his body.
However, after he turned around and walked away, one of the sentries looked up and stared at his back for a long time, cursing him for pretending to be stupid!
This sentry had a hooked nose and could be considered an ordinary cunning man. He rolled his eyes a few times and shouted to the other sentries beside him, saying that he had something to see Bastard A. He asked everyone to be vigilant. After all, there was one less person on guard. If he relaxed a little, it would be easy for the Qing army to take advantage of it.
Hooknose walked into Bastard A's tent after he finished his work. Bastard A continued to look at the erotic painting in front of him. His mind was filled with women and love. He didn't feel that Hooknose had come in at all.
Hooknose saw that Bastard A was bent over the table and thought that he was studying the battle situation. He admired him and couldn't help but feel jealous. With such a small superior riding on his head, it was difficult for a small soldier like him to make a name for himself.
Since ancient times, the people at the bottom of every power chain always hoped that the person leading them would be slightly inferior to them so that they had the opportunity to surpass them and sit in the leadership position.
This was especially true for those with bad intentions. They hoped that the leaders above were either stupid or smelly. They wanted to use the ugliness of the leaders to cover up their cruel crimes and take the position of leader at the right time.
However, Hooknose immediately heaved a sigh of relief because he leaned his head over and found that Bastard A was looking at erotic paintings. Where was he studying military tactics? He was a playboy boss.
As a result, Hooknose's mood improved. He felt that he had a chance to surpass Bastard A. A person who indulged in the pleasures of life would never be treated as an opponent.
Bastard A raised his head and found the aquiline nose standing in front of him. He was a little surprised and asked him what was the matter.
The hawk-nosed man quickly bent over and whispered into his ear,"Wang Tiao was complaining about you just now. He's dissatisfied with you. You must be careful."
Bastard A's mind was still in the erotic painting, so he didn't want to talk to Hooknose. He thought that Hooknose didn't have the money to drink, so he wanted to ask for a reward.
Thus, he pulled open the drawer and took out ten taels of silver. He handed it to the hawk-nosed man and told him to take it for a drink. Then, he motioned for him to stand guard at the door.
However, before the hooknose walked out of the tent, Bastard A called him again and signaled him to come forward. The hooknose thought that he still had something to do and quickly ran back.
Bastard A didn't wait for him to ask. He picked up the erotic painting and waved it at him. He said," You know, I like naked women. You saw it. Don't tell outsiders that some people are born with a cheap mouth. They want women to death in their hearts, but they will accuse others of being immoral."
Hooknose didn't think about who he was referring to. He just wanted to dispel Bastard A's worries as soon as possible. He thought that he would gossip behind his back and anger Bastard A. If that happened, he would really dare to move his head away.
Therefore, the hawk-nosed man quickly reminded Bastard A, Master! You're so forgetful. I helped you find the erotic painting. Think about it! Would I tell anyone?
Bastard A slapped his forehead and nodded." That's true. I almost forgot about this. It's all because of the bastard master above. I'm infatuated with him. Now it's fine. Go back and stand guard. I'll take care of you in the future."
After saying that, Bastard A felt that he should reward Hooknose again so that he would feel grateful and follow him loyally in the future.
Thus, Bastard A pulled open the drawer again and took out another ten taels of silver. He smiled and handed it to Hooknose, saying,"Take it!"
Hooknose quickly thanked him and immediately bent his waist ten degrees. However, he did not kneel down to thank him. The words " kneel " rolled in his mind. He felt that Bastard A's money was too little and was not worth kneeling down and kowtowing.
Moreover, he felt that he was already familiar with Bastard A, and he was too embarrassed to flatter him. Bowing in front of Bastard A was already a good treatment.
If Bastard A had more silver taels, Hooknose felt that he would have considered kneeling or even kowtowing to show his gratitude.
Wang Tiao returned to his own tent. The moment he entered, he called the orderly to fetch water. He wanted to take a shower first to wash away the foul smell that Bastard A had brought to his tent.
Xiao Li, the orderly, was picking his toes at the side of his shop. He did not expect Wang to look back and was stunned! She quickly put on her shoes and stood up to ask, what does the lord need?
Wang Zhuo was a little stunned. He couldn't remember what she had just called him. He simply didn't have a brain.
Hence, he rolled his eyes and looked at Xiao Li. His gaze fell on Xiao Li's boots that were not fastened properly. He scolded him. It was broad daylight, during normal military preparation time, but you were dressed lazily. If the Qing army came, wouldn't you be killed?
Xiao Li hurriedly smiled apologetically, but he was unconvinced in his heart. What right do you have to be lazy? I'm just picking my feet to get some air, and I have to talk seriously. How am I a master who rewards and punishes clearly? Instead, I'm a tyrant who only allows me to set fires and forbids the common people to light lamps. I really want to spit on your face!
However, Xiao Li did not dare to show any dissatisfaction in his words and actions. Although he was ordinary, he knew that a reserved life was a beautiful life. When faced with a strong person, the best way for a small person to survive was to pretend to be a grandson and play Tai Chi. In the gentle and reserved way, the strong person could not be forced to eat.
Seeing Xiao Li's docile attitude, Wang Zhuo couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief in his heart. He had finally found the feeling of being strong. The anger he had suffered when he met Bastard A just now was thrown out of the Cloud Mist.
Moreover, the reason why Wang Chuo let Xiao Li stay by his side was because he had a good temper and was not cunning. He made people feel comfortable and at ease.
Especially during times of war, having a few close followers could alleviate many worries, increase one's self-confidence, and lay the foundation of wisdom for winning the war.
In addition, the Taiping Army was always at war. From the economic point of view to the time, they could not guarantee that all the officers could enjoy a single tent alone. The single tent could only be supplied to officers above the level of Bastard A. Wang Zhuo also needed to eat and live with his subordinates.
However, Wang Zhuo was a little petty. He arranged for Xiao Li to sleep in his room. It was a cover-up, indicating that he did not do anything special. He had an ordinary soldier sleeping in the tent, but he also hired a personal bodyguard to guard his safety day and night.
He thought of Zhang Deshui's matter and asked Xiao Li not to prepare the bathwater in a hurry. He first called his uncle, Wang Daheng, over and prepared to let Uncle Daheng go to Ning Bo to invite his rich friend, Mao Wanwan, to specially study Zhang Deshui's matter.
Xiao Li was just about to pour hot water for Wang Chao when he heard his master change his mind and ask him to go out and call Wang Daheng. That old fellow who talked and walked carelessly, Xiao Li was annoyed with him and thought that he liked to take advantage of others.
Wang Daheng clearly knew that Xiao Li was born poor and did not have much family background. He relied on Wang Tiao Tiao to earn some money to spend. Every time he came to look for Wang Tiao, he would always privately pull Xiao Li to chat about family matters.
The conversation between the two of them was lively. The old man was in the mood and wanted to drink and eat.
Therefore, he told Xiao Li that everyone would pay the bill according to the duty-pay system, and no one would suffer a loss.
However, once he ordered Xiao Li to go out and buy food and wine, Wang Daheng forgot the principle of going dutch and thought that Xiao Li should treat him.
After such a thing happened many times, Xiao Li was a little overwhelmed. He finally mustered up the courage to ask Daheng. He was worried that Daheng would not give him face and would scold him on the spot. Xiao Li called Daheng Uncle and wanted to get closer to him in terms of feelings.
Wang Daheng was very willing for Xiao Li to call him uncle. He narrowed his eyes and asked Xiao Li,"Kid!" If you have something to say, just say it. Uncle will make the decision for you.
Xiao Li cursed him to death in his heart. What kind of dog is this? If it wasn't for Wang Tiao's face, he would really dare to press you down and beat you to death.
Then, he cursed Wang Tiao in his heart, even Wang Tiao! What kind of person was he? Wasn't he just fooling around in the Taiping Country Army? There were really not many good leaders nowadays!
Wang Daheng saw that Xiao Li didn't speak for a long time and knew that he didn't dare to fart casually. Although Wang Daheng was rude, he wasn't an idiot. He knew that he had eaten and drank for free many times. Just from Xiao Li's eyes, he could already feel anger.
However, he didn't care. He even felt that eating Xiao Li's free meals was something he should do. Wang Daheng had been among the ordinary soldiers for many years and knew that these people basically didn't have much pursuit of Confucius. Most of them were like him, racking their brains all day to come up with some crooked ways, hoping to earn an inexhaustible amount of money for food, drink, and entertainment.
He had followed the Taiping Country Army and fought and killed along the way. He basically did not treat ordinary people as humans. He used the excuse of war to casually plunder their wealth and sex.
At this point, the so-called revolutionary war had lost its humanity and revolutionary meaning. It was only a battle to fulfill the dreams of Hong Xiuquan and a few other high-level leaders. Most of the people couldn't benefit from this war.
Wang Daheng's heart had long turned cold when he saw the useless high-level leaders of the Taiping Army. He even had the idea of returning to the embrace of the Qing Dynasty. Even if he were to become a farmer again, it would at least be more stable than this endless fighting and killing.
However, when he thought of the arrogance of the Manchu Tartars and the cruelty of many Han officials and people, Wang Daheng did not dare to return to the Qing Dynasty.
Thus, the path in front of Wang Daheng was a blur. He didn't know where to go. He had discussed this contradiction with Wang Chuo before. Wang Chuo had a smart face, and just like him, he said with a sad face that the current world was not the scene of human life. He would be stabbed if he stretched his head out, and he would be stabbed if he shrank his head back. There was no way! No way!
