Two Hundred and Forty, the Law Does Not Blame the Public

Originally, Ren Xiaosu thought that the number of private troops was not that many, but he was wrong. Seeing that after the assembly, there would be more people than the combat brigade of the Consortium. Li Qingzheng went to inquire about it. This was a collection of private troops from many barriers.

The private troops of each barrier now have a common chief officer named Li Anjun, who is a direct descendant of the Li family, and now concurrently serves as the manager of the 107 barrier.

And the chief officer in charge of the private army of the 108th barrier is called Liu Taiyu.

At this time, the private troops of other barriers had already assembled, and only Liu Taiyu looked at the lonely Ren Xiaosu and the others in front of him, with a melancholy expression on his face.

None of his soldiers came...

Liu Taiyu looked at Li Qingzheng: "Did anything happen on the way you came here?"

Li Qingzheng stood up straight: "Report, sir, there is no accident. The eighth combat team of the Second Railway Battalion assembled on time. Please give instructions, sir. I..."

"All right, all right," Liu Taiyu waved his hands distractedly: "It's not messy enough, do you, just stand here and don't make a sound!"

After speaking, Liu Taiyu left without knowing where he went.

Someone in the team whispered: "Did the people behind us start fighting?"

"It seems to be, it should be robbing people," Li Qingzheng said with a toothache.

Ren Xiaosu was delighted: "That's a good thing. The so-called law does not blame the public. If all the outposts fight, they will not have to suffer punishment."

In fact, the reason why the people in other outposts dared to do this is also to understand this truth. Now that the Li family needs people to fight, how can they have the time to keep holding them accountable?

This is when someone looked at Ren Xiaosu: "Squad leader, is this what you expected? It turns out that you want to create chaos and form a situation where the law does not blame the public."

Ren Xiaosu cleared his throat: "Ahem, it's okay, everything is under control..."

As a result, Chen Wudi said at this time: "My master's brain is not that good."

Ren Xiaosu looked at Chen Wudi silently: "???"

In fact, the management of private troops has always been chaotic,

Especially after the expansion, it is even more confusing.

Ren Xiaosu and the others hadn't been to other outposts very much, and they knew it when they had been. Many outposts were never attended by people, and the team leader of the combat team deliberately lied about the number of people in order to get paid, but now they suddenly asked for an assembly, which caught them off guard.

If the higher-ups were to know that they were paid empty-handed, it would not be as simple as an ordinary punishment, and maybe some people would be pulled out and shot several times as a warning to others.

Therefore, in this chaos, some people deliberately continued to muddy the water.

When Liu Taiyu personally brought back all the members of the private army, the other private troops had already left, leaving only the combat troops of 108 barriers.

According to the requirement, it was assembled at 7 in the morning, but now it is almost evening...

During this period, no one cared about Ren Xiaosu and the others. The entire combat team was like herding sheep. Ren Xiaosu still had time to take everyone to the market town to buy an egg-filled biscuit, and Li Qing was treating them.

In the evening, Liu Taiyu came back with a large army to assemble. The soldiers in the private army were all bruised and swollen. However, the most shocking thing was that several combat teams disappeared in an organized manner...

Many people's clothes were torn and their shoes were lost, but Ren Xiaosu and his entire combat team were still a bit human.

The combat team Ren Xiaosu and the others belonged to was the eighth combat team of the Iron Second Battalion. Originally, there were one to seven in front, but the sixth combat team simply disappeared, and everyone was snatched away, even the team leader was snatched away...

At this time, Liu Taiyu didn't mention any more punishments. On weekdays, he tried every means to deduct everyone's military pay, and he didn't really take care of military affairs. Now he is reaping the bitter fruit.

Ren Xiaosu roughly counted, and now there are 33 complete combat squads left in the private army, which means that the number of this private army is about 1,000.

Standing in front of everyone, Liu Taiyu said: "On weekdays, you eat and drink from the consortium. As the saying goes, raising troops for a thousand days and using them for a short time, now is the day for you to serve the consortium. Our department will march towards Tantou Mountain, Fengyi Mountain, and Shuanglong Mountain, and finally establish a high ground there to prevent Qing's army from invading."

Ren Xiaosu froze for a moment, asked the private troops to build highlands? Really let go to die.

Although the terrain still has a huge advantage nowadays, the problem is that the range and accuracy of the shells are very high. You can occupy the high ground, but if people have money, they can simply wash the high ground for you with shells.

At this time, everyone on the high ground must die.

Generally, in such a situation, it is necessary to build extremely strong fortifications to play the role of a strategic highland, but how can Ren Xiaosu and the others have time to build fortifications?

Everyone in the private army was in an uproar, no one wanted to die.

But the problem is that they quarreled, but no one dared to run away.

There is a reinforced company beside Liu Taiyu, which is his cronies, with a total of 180 people. The weapons and equipment of these people are much better than Ren Xiaosu and the others.

But this army is not used for fighting. On the one hand, they are responsible for protecting Liu Taiyu, and on the other hand, they are responsible for supervising the execution of orders by other combat teams of the private army.

Liu Taiyu said with a smile: "However, if you take on a big responsibility, there will be great rewards. Those who perform well at the end of this war can directly enter the regular army of the Li family. Not only that, but also have a very generous reward. No matter how bad they are, they can directly enter the barrier and become an official resident."

Some soldiers were excited on the spot: "Can you enter the barrier and obtain resident status?"

"real or fake?"

Liu Taiyu smiled and said: "I am the commander of the Second Iron Battalion, can I make such a joke with you? The senior management of the consortium has already issued a document, and you should put your heart in your stomach."

At this time, many people were moved, and the refugees had no knowledge. It was this group of people who were always deceived in history, and it was easier to deceive when a group of people got together.

But Ren Xiaosu knew very well that Liu Taiyu dared to make a big deal like this, probably because he didn't think that this private army of nearly a thousand people would come back alive!

There are quite a few people in the team who can stay awake, but they dare not say anything, and can only let their comrades discuss excitedly on the sidelines.

Suddenly, Liu Taiyu clapped his hands to signal everyone to calm down: "Everyone get in the car, let's go!"

Liu Taiyu's off-road vehicle and the troop transport truck of the reinforced company did not drive in front, but watched from behind to see if anyone escaped halfway.

Ren Xiaosu saw this scene through the rearview mirror in the car, and he said to Li Qingzheng: "This Liu Taiyu is timid, and he will definitely not dare to go to the battlefield in person, so we will have more room for display."

Li Qingzheng was taken aback: "What are you going to play...Xiao Su, don't act recklessly..."
