"Military punishment?"
Chu Ming narrowed his eyes and sneered."Aren't I just following the military law? The first law of the Great Yan Army is that if you do not answer the call of the name, do not arrive at the appointed time, do not arrive after the appointed time, and change the law of the division at will, this is called slow army, violators will be beheaded! I am a new official and want to personally select the number of people, but these people dare to turn a deaf ear to me, so I naturally have to punish them.”
"Punishment? Your so-called punishment is to kill all your subordinates? I think it's obvious that you're cruel by nature, so you used the name of punishment to wantonly slaughter your subordinates to satisfy your cruel nature!”The commander opened his mouth and directly put a big hat on him. Killing a subordinate was a serious crime, and if this crime was carried out, Chu Ming would definitely be beheaded.
"What a joke. I was doing things according to military law from the beginning to the end. Chu Ming glanced at the commander and said coldly,""As far as I know, the dare-to-die camp is a special independent organization. It has always been controlled by the battalion commander and the highest general in the camp.”
"You're wrong about that!" The commander's lips curled up slightly and revealed a mocking expression."Unfortunately, just a while ago, the lieutenant had already placed the dare-to-die camp under my command. So, from now on, the entire dare-to-die camp, including you, the battalion commander, is under my direct control.”
"What is it? Is there such a thing?"
Chu Ming's expression changed. It was one thing for the lieutenant to assign him to the dare-to-die camp, but now, he even sent a commander to restrain him. This was clearly not giving him any way out.
"You don't believe me? This is Lord Lieutenant's warrant, take a look for yourself!”As he spoke, the commander casually threw a roll of paper over.
Chu Ming took it and opened it. Just as the commander had said, the dare-to-die camp had been incorporated into his camp.
"So what? No matter whose camp the daring death camp is under, the military rules are like mountains. No one is allowed to provoke them. Not only did these people disobey orders, but they also offended their superiors and tried to kill me. According to the law, they should all be executed. I killed them to maintain military discipline. Could it be that the commander is trying to protect them?”Chu Ming said firmly.
"Good boy, you've only joined the army for less than a day and you're already talking about military law and regulations in front of me!”The commander stared at Chu Ming with a dark expression. His eyes were burning with anger, but he quickly suppressed it and said,""Fine, you have a point. Let's forget about this matter. I don't want to see such a thing happen a second time. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!”With that, he turned around and left. Since he couldn't catch Chu Ming, he didn't want to waste any more time. However, there was still a long way to go. He believed that there would be a chance to teach Chu Ming a lesson.
Chu Ming's killing intent gradually dissipated after this episode. If it was possible, he would naturally want to kill the remaining members of the daring death camp as well. However, this would definitely give the commander a chance to make things difficult for him. Although he could still use the military rules as an excuse, the other party could also punish him for disrespecting his superior's orders. Moreover, if he really killed all these people, then he, the commander of the dare-to-die camp, would become a naked commander without any soldiers. This was not good for him.
"Your luck is pretty good!"
After a while, Chu Ming glanced at the surviving members of the daring death camp expressionlessly and said indifferently," I don't care what you were like in the past, but from today onwards, I don't want anyone to ignore my words. You…" Chu Ming raised his right hand and pointed at one of the five people who had left the barracks."I remember that you came out of the first barrack, so you will be the deputy battalion commander of the dare-to-die camp and help me deal with the daily affairs!”
"Thank you for your nurturing, sir. This subordinate must do my best!”Hearing this, that person was overjoyed and bowed. The other four looked at him enviously, regretting not coming out earlier.
In fact, if it was before, no one would have cared about the position of deputy battalion commander. All along, those people from the dare-to-die camp couldn't even control the battalion commander, let alone the deputy battalion commander. It was meaningless. However, it was different now. Under Chu Ming's bloody suppression, these thugs had basically been convinced. Under such circumstances, the position of deputy battalion commander naturally became a pleasant one.
"Alright!"
"Now, take the others to clean up this place and rebuild the barracks!" Chu Ming waved his hand coldly.”The original barracks of the Dare-to-die Camp had already been destroyed by him. If he did not build a new one soon, he would probably have to sleep on the ground tonight.
"Yes, my lord!"
As soon as Chu Ming finished speaking, the new deputy battalion commander immediately bowed and accepted the order. Then, he ordered the other members of the daring death camp to move quickly. Although the other members of the daring death camp looked down on this guy, they could only obey Chu Ming's orders obediently.
The construction of the barracks wasn't a difficult task for these " veterans ". An hour before nightfall, a simple wooden barracks appeared in front of Chu Ming. The new barracks were simple and crude. There was nothing inside except for a shelf, but Chu Ming was quite satisfied. At least the new barracks were much cleaner and brighter than the old and decaying barracks.
……
The sun rose and the moon set. Before they knew it, Chu Ming had been in the camp for two days.
In the past two days, Chu Ming had handed over all the affairs of the Dare-to-die Camp to his appointed deputy battalion commander, Zheng He, while he himself was a hands-off manager. Other than eating and sleeping, he spent his days practicing martial arts in a small barrack built especially for him. During this period of time, Sun Hui took some time to look for him once. He finally understood why the Lieutenant of Mount Mang Military Camp, Ouyang Bo, deliberately targeted him.
However, Chu Ming wasn't too worried. Great Yan's military rules were strict, and even the lieutenant did not dare to harm him openly. At most, they would give him more missions to send him to his death, or find an opportunity to catch him and punish him with military law. Moreover, it was useless to worry. What should come would come sooner or later. What could not be avoided would not be avoided in the end. In short, when the soldiers came, the water would be blocked. He wanted to see if Ouyang Bo's methods were more powerful or if his life was tougher.
Just like that, the peaceful days lasted until Chu Ming's fifth night in the camp.
It was midnight, and the night was quiet.
"Kill them!"
A burst of battle cries suddenly came from the east. The battle cries were mixed with the neighing of warhorses and the clashing of swords and spears.
In the military camp, many people were alarmed and rushed out of their barracks. The surroundings were calm, and bonfires were burning quietly. A few miles away in the east, flames soared into the sky, and the shouts came from there.
Balls of light bloomed in the dark night. It was the battle between the experts of the army and the enemy.
"All of you, go back."
Seeing many people rushing out of the tent, a black-armored lieutenant shouted and walked over."This kind of camp attack happens often. Stand at your posts and don't make a fuss!”
Chu Ming also noticed the commotion and walked out of the barracks.
Chu Ming glanced around and saw the dark warriors standing proudly with their halberds in their hands. They looked calm, and it was obvious that they were already used to this kind of midnight raid.
"It seems that we were making a fuss over nothing.”
Most of these people who rushed out were reserve troops temporarily transferred from various counties or new recruits who were on the battlefield for the first time. It was normal for them to think that it was the enemy camp when they heard the commotion.
However, Chu Ming suddenly felt that something was wrong. Just as he was about to take a closer look, he heard the sentry shout,"Enemy attack, be careful!"
"Herod…"
Before he could finish his shout, a high-pitched neighing of a warhorse came from the darkness. Under the astonished gazes of many Great Yan soldiers, a black shadow flew up from the forest outside the camp. Its fiery red mane was faintly visible in the light of the campsite. It was a red warhorse as tall as a man.
Whoosh!
A long spear suddenly flew out from the back of the horse, piercing through layers of space and hitting the top of a watchtower with lightning speed. With a loud bang, a ball of fire exploded. The top of the watchtower exploded, and countless wood shavings shot out in all directions like arrows. The sentry who had issued the warning was crushed to pieces in the flames.
"Get down!"
At the same time when the sentry tower exploded, a loud sound that sounded like a huge bell rang out from the back of Great Yan's camp. A sharp arrow pierced through the night sky and pierced through the pegasus with lightning speed. The huge force directly sent it flying thousands of feet, falling behind the forest.
"Hahaha, men of the Gale Empire, kill them!”
Amidst the laughter, a burly man in fish-scale armor jumped down from the dead warhorse. With a shake of his hand, the barricade outside the camp was instantly blown into pieces.
"Herod…"
A series of neighing sounds rang out as countless armored warhorses leaped out of the forest, rushed over the fence, and charged towards the camp. At the same time, fire arrows shot out and set the tents ablaze.
"Kill them!"
A bone-chilling voice came from the dark night.
The army of Great Yan Empire was like a war machine. The moment the assault troops of Gale Empire rushed into the camp, they immediately began to move crazily.
In an instant, a dense black armored army charged over from all directions. During the process of running for more than a hundred feet, they immediately formed a simple battle formation and cut towards the Gale Empire's assault troops.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sounds of the giant crossbows were endless, and every arrow was shot without fail. More than a dozen Gale Empire soldiers were immediately shot to death, and their corpses flew hundreds of feet before falling to the ground.
