At the Young Marshal's Manor.
Zhang Xuebing heaved a sigh of relief as he looked at the newspapers flying all over the sky.
He had spent a lot of energy to set up this plan. Looking at Sun Dianying's embarrassed state, he could already imagine the predicament of the Northern Expedition Army.
"This time, the world has been thrown into chaos, haha!”
Zhang Xuebing laughed.
"Young Marshal, you are wise. These few days, all the warlords have been busy pressuring Jiang Jieshi, and protests have erupted in several places.”
"He said he wanted to kill Sun Dianying! It seemed that Sun Dianying had angered everyone this time!”
The adjutant at the side echoed.
Zhang Xuebing just smiled and didn't say anything. How could he not know the secret?
There were already conflicts between the warlords in the open and in the dark, and this incident was just an inducement.
It seemed like the newspapers and schools were making a ruckus because of this incident, but in reality, it was obvious who was secretly colluding with them and who was supporting them from behind.
As soon as this matter fermented, all the devils and snake gods unconsciously surfaced. Only those who couldn't see the current situation would follow suit and make a fuss.
However, there was no need to tell the people around him, especially his subordinates, about the twists and turns of some things.
Firstly, they didn't need to know. Secondly, if they said too much, their subordinates would unconsciously become arrogant.
After so many years of being a warlord, how could he not know this?
His thoughts were meticulous, and his methods were iron-blooded.
Zhang Xuebing sat on the white tiger chair and took a sip of coffee.
A strong smell of coffee entered his nose. He looked at his watch and estimated that it was about time.
He put on his military boots and coat and walked out.
"Let's go see Zhang Qishan!"
Then, a military vehicle sped over. Zhang Xuebing got on the military vehicle and put on his sunglasses.
The world instantly changed colors. As the military vehicle accelerated, he soon arrived at the military camp.
...
In the military camp.
After the people from Nine Gates returned, they were arranged to stay in the military camp and were never allowed to go out.
Firstly, it was to rest.
Secondly, it was to prevent the news from being leaked.
However, when he heard that two of the Nine Gates were seriously injured, he was also extremely worried. However, due to the lack of time, he could not come.
Zhang Xuebing had just entered the tent when Zhang Qishan came up and saluted.
"Major!"
"Brothers, you've worked hard! You've worked hard!"
Zhang Xuebing also saluted Zhang Qishan and the others.
"You guys have made a great contribution this time. This commander will definitely reward you well!”
"How are Qi Tiezui and Er Yuehong's injuries? Let me see!"
Zhang Xuebing walked straight over. Er Yuehong and Qi Tiezui hurriedly sat up respectfully.
"Hello, Major!"
The two replied in unison.
Zhang Xuebing looked at the two of them who had just recovered and his heart was filled with gratitude. He reached out and held their hands,
"Two brothers, recuperate well. I've heard about what happened between you two.”
"Young Marshal, you flatter me! We will go through fire and water for the young marshal!”
The two replied.
It turned out that that day, the white-haired thing was a living dead that had been placed into the coffin before being buried by the Qing Dynasty.
The seven orifices of the corpse had been sealed by a secret technique of a warlock, and after living with the corpse for a long time, it had mutated.
The luminous pearl was also a part of the secret technique.
On that day, Red Qi and Iron Mouth were poisoned, so it was not groundless to say that there was an insinuation.
In ancient times, there was a type of poisonous bug that could poison a human being.
As long as he got close to the Yu, he would go crazy.
That day, the Yu had been under the coffin carriage all the time. When everyone got on the coffin carriage, the Yu started to attack the driver.
February Red Iron Mouth was also confused by this and attacked Black-backed Sixth Brother crazily. Fortunately, Black-backed Sixth Brother's saber technique was first-class.
After fighting for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he subdued the two of them.
After listening to their experiences, Zhang Xuebing's horizons were also broadened. He did not expect such a thing to exist in the world.
Zhang Xuebing praised Nine Gates and the others after greeting them.
This was the first time Nine Gates felt that they had truly shown their value. Everyone's faces were filled with joy.
Ever since they had followed the young marshal, this was the first time they had made a contribution.
Even though this mission was extremely dangerous, it had brought them a lot of benefits.
At this moment, they truly felt that following the young marshal was an extremely wise move. The young marshal was not only good at using people, but also empathized with his brothers.
The most important thing was that his leadership style and iron-blooded methods made his status in people's hearts rise unconsciously.
"Brothers, I admire your abilities to the extreme. Take a good rest this time. Tonight, I will personally welcome you!”
Zhang Xuebing's loud voice spread to every corner of the room, and everyone was grateful.
" Thank you, Young Marshal. You're mighty, Young Marshal!"
After that, Zhang Qi Shan brought the young marshal to the warehouse.
Dozens of carts of treasure were locked inside.
Zhang Qishan took out a box from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Xuebing. He opened it and saw a green bead inside.
The entire body was emitting a faint green light. Because the sun was shining brightly at this time, it was not very clear.
Zhang Xuebing used his palm to block the box, and the green bead's light became stronger.
"Good stuff. I didn't expect such a thing to exist in this world!”
Zhang Xuebing exclaimed. This was the first time he had seen such a thing. It was not that he was inexperienced, but that this old witch was too good at plundering.
"Major, this is only one of them. There are more inside!”
Zhang Qishan brought Zhang Xuebing into the warehouse, and the carts of treasures were opened by his subordinates.
In an instant, the entire garage was lit up. The pearls, jade, and gems filled the car.
Zhang Xuebing couldn't help but admire these treasures from car to car. After looking at them, he sighed in his heart.
"Motherf * cker, the old witch Cixi really knows how to enjoy life. I'll exchange these things for some weapons and ammunition.”
"The Manchu Dynasty could still struggle on for a few years, but this old woman only cares about her own enjoyment and never worries about the lives of the common people.”
Zhang Xuebing couldn't help but say.
Behind him, Zhang Qishan was also affected by the young marshal's words.
"Young Marshal is right, but how many people in the entire Qing Dynasty are as open-minded as Young Marshal?”
"When the young marshal saw the treasure, he thought of strengthening himself and attacking the foreign invaders. Ten thousand old witches at this realm can't compare.”
After Zhang Xuebing finished his inspection, he brought the few of them out of the garage.
He called for the staff officer beside him, and Staff Officer Yang hurried over.
"Reporting, Major!"
"Advisor Yang, from today onwards, prepare a feast for the brothers of the Nine Gates every night!”
"Three days!"
Zhang Xuebing said loudly.
Staff Officer Yang thought he had misheard. He was stunned for a moment before he asked in confusion,
"Young Marshal, isn't this inappropriate?”
"If there's anything wrong, just listen to my orders!”
Zhang Xuebing shouted. The staff officer received the order and went to prepare.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the entire military camp immediately rose. All the soldiers were busy.
……
At night.
Loud military songs pierced through the sky, and bonfires were lit under the night sky.
Surrounding the bonfire were muscular soldiers, each of them holding a green wine cup.
In the middle was a roasted golden lamb. There was oil dripping from the bottom of the lamb, and the fragrance of the meat called many military dogs over.
"Let's do it! Hahaha!"
A drunk soldier raised his glass to greet the officer beside him and took a big gulp of wine.
His Adam's apple moved up and down, making gulping sounds.
"Come! Brothers of the Nine Gates, let me give you a toast!”
Like the other soldiers, Zhang Xuebing raised his glass and toasted Er Yuehong and the others.
Er Yuehong and the others hurriedly stood up and raised their wine glasses in return.
"Young Marshal, you can't do that. The Nine Gates have yet to repay your kindness.”
"Young Marshal, our brothers give you a toast!”
The few of them raised their wine glasses high and gulped them down.
"In the future, I'll have to ask all of you, brothers. Let's conquer the world together and do something together!”
"Famous throughout the ages!"
Zhang Xuebing raised his glass and toasted all the soldiers.
"Young Marshal's achievements will be famous for thousands of years!"
"This subordinate will not refuse even if I die!"
The moment Zhang Xuebing finished speaking, the soldiers on the square shouted one after another. They were all sincere and did not lie at all.
Zhang Xuebing sighed in his heart. With such an army, there was no need to worry about not being able to achieve great things. With so many talents, there was no need to worry about the world being uncertain.
Immediately, they drank dozens of cups of wine. The soldiers could see that the young commander was very happy today and also became happy.
But he didn't know why the young marshal was so happy.
"Qishan, you helped me put in a lot of effort. Come, let's go!”
Zhang Xuebing laughed as he held onto Zhang Qishan.
Zhang Qishan, on the other hand, had a respectful and humble attitude. He did not dare to overstep his boundaries because he knew that there was a difference between the upper and lower levels.
The young commander could treat him as a brother indefinitely, but he could not be presumptuous or else he would not have a good ending.
Although the Major was usually carefree, he was meticulous and had good plans. If it was in ancient times, he would definitely be the material for an emperor.
He had to assist such an ambitious person wholeheartedly so that he could realize his value in the future.
He received a lot of rewards.
And many subordinates did not know how to get along with their superiors, so they stuck their tails up high. In the end, they were the only ones who were unlucky.
"Young Marshal, without you, this subordinate would still be a deployment officer in Changsha. It's all because of your promotion. This is what this subordinate should do.”
Zhang Qishan said respectfully.
"Why are we still talking about that? Cheers!”
Zhang Xuebing clinked his wine glass with Zhang Qishan's and downed it.
Zhang Qishan also raised his wine glass and drank it in one gulp, but his expression was still so respectful and humble.
Although he had drunk quite a bit at this banquet, his mind was clearer than many people's, and he respectfully served the young commander.
At this moment, Zhang Xuebing was obviously a little drunk. His face was slightly tipsy and flushed, and he kept humming a song.
The people from the Nine Gates, as well as all the officers and soldiers present, were very happy to see the young marshal like this. Even some of the restrained soldiers were drinking and eating casually.
The wine was already half-drunk, and the scene was a mess. More than half of the wine, meat, and fruits had been wiped out by the soldiers.
Zhang Xuebing saw that everyone was almost done playing, so he immediately stood up and said to everyone.
"Brothers, we can't hold on any longer. Hahaha, we'll leave first! You guys should rest early too! If anyone has any difficulties, just tell us directly.”
"No matter if your family members are in trouble or if you have anything, you can come to me. I will definitely solve it for you!”
"Let's retreat first!"
The soldiers all stood up to bid farewell to Zhang Xuebing. Although they had drunk a lot, they all stood up and saluted.
Zhang Xuebing left the banquet and brought Zhang Qishan to the warehouse.
At this moment, Zhang Xuebing seemed to have changed into a different person. He had just been stumbling, but now he had regained his consciousness.
"Young Marshal, you're not drunk?" Zhang Qishan asked curiously.”
Zhang Xuebing looked at Zhang Qishan's confused face and smiled,"
"How can I get drunk with this bit of wine? But if I'm not drunk, then everyone will cower and not dare to drink!”
"It's meant to let everyone relax!”
As he spoke, the young commander patted Zhang Qishan's shoulder and continued to walk forward.
Zhang Qishan was secretly amazed in his heart. He originally thought that the young commander really drank too much, but he did not expect it to be for everyone.
The admiration in his heart grew even stronger!
However, he only knew one part of Zhang Xuebing's intention, but he didn't know the intention of buying people's hearts and recruiting soldiers.
Zhang Xuebing and the other stood in front of the warehouse for a while.
Even through the heavy iron door, Zhang Xuebing could feel the Yin Qi buried deep underground.
There was a faint glow of treasure in the crack of the iron door, and there was even a faint sound of insects.
They had just been dug out from the cemetery, and they were all peerless treasures. There must be something special about them.
The ancients often said that when they encountered rare treasures in the wild, they would see a special natural imagination, such as fireflies and ghosts.
Of course, this was just a rumor and could not be trusted. However, treasures did have their own unique features. For example, the luminous pearl was completely glowing with green light.
It was definitely a rare treasure in the world, and it was still faintly emitting a chill in the daytime.
No wonder the old witch would put it in his mouth. She must have loved it very much when she was alive.
When the soldiers on both sides saw the young commander coming, they hurriedly saluted!
"Major!"
Zhang Xuebing nodded slightly and went forward to tidy up the two soldiers 'uniforms. He patted their shoulders and said,
"It's not cold at night, right? Which shift?"
"Young Marshal, it's not cold. It's the second shift!”
"You've worked hard!"
"Replying to Young Marshal, it wasn't hard!"
After a few greetings, Zhang Xuebing entered the warehouse and looked at the treasures of the old witch Cixi.
"This time, the army's pay is settled!”
Zhang Xuebing stood there for a while and then instructed Zhang Qishan,
"These things, only sell the gold and silver for military expenses. Don't touch the rest!”
Zhang Qishan was a little puzzled when he heard this. This gold and silver could not buy too much money.
If he could buy some of those jewelry, jade, and pearls, he could make a lot of money. Not to mention raising an army, it would be more than enough to expand the establishment.
But why didn't the Young Marshal allow him to buy it at this time?
So he asked in confusion,"
"Young Marshal, we are currently in need of recruiting soldiers and buying horses. Is it not…"
Zhang Xuebing smiled faintly and didn't explain anything. However, his heart was very clear, but now was not the time to talk about it.
"Just do as I say. I have my own arrangements!”
Zhang Xuebing left immediately after saying that, while Zhang Qishan stayed where he was. He was responsible for dividing the treasures.
He had to get rid of this treasure as soon as possible, or else it would bring him a burden.
……
Fengtian.
Marshal Manor.
"Motherf * cker, Sun Dianying, that son of a b * tch.”
"He actually dug out someone else's ancestral grave, this wicked thing!”
"Although I, Old Zhang, am a gangster, I have never dared to have any ideas about that. This son of a b * tch, heh!”
"Do you think this is f * cking human?”
"Bah! Shameless!"
Zhang Zuolin scolded angrily. He had just heard the news that Sun Dianying had robbed Cixi's tomb and was immediately furious.
He had never thought that this old fellow would actually have such crooked thoughts!
Seeing Zhang Zuolin so furious, Zhang Shouyi poured a glass of water and brought it over.
"Damn it, what made you so angry?”
"Look, someone has come to me and asked me to urge the National Government to punish the grave robbers!”
Zhang Zuolin handed Zhang Shouyi a newspaper. The front page of the newspaper was a photo of Sun Dianying robbing Dongling.
The entire Eastern Tomb had been blasted into ruins. The interior of the Eastern Tomb was riddled with holes. Sun Dianying's subordinates were currently moving things from the tomb.
"Sigh, there are many people who dig graves. Sun Dianying is a warlord, so he won't be punished.”
"It's just some reporters making a fuss.”
Zhang Shouyi said.
However, Zhang Zuolin shook his head thoughtfully."
"It's not that simple. I keep feeling that something's wrong. That land is under Feng Yuxiang's control.”
"How could I let Sun Dianying do anything? With my intuition, there must be something fishy about this matter.”
At this moment, the phone suddenly rang. Zhang Zuolin turned around and wanted to leave when he saw someone calling again.
"Damn it, take it. What if it's something important? You can take it."
"Motherf * cker, Sun Dianying is causing trouble for me, Old Zhang?”
Zhang Zuolin picked up the phone while cursing. A hoarse voice came from the other end.
"Commander Zhang, we should put pressure on Nanjing together and bring justice to the world!"
"Return it yourself! Damn it!" After saying that, Zhang Zuolin slammed the phone shut. Before his hand left the phone, he made another call.
