Gunpowder walked up to the group of surrendering soldiers with his hands behind his back. Looking at the three dejected men standing at the front, Gunpowder asked: "Are you the leaders of the Three Banners?"

"Yes." The three of them answered in unison.

Gunpowder squinted his eyes and looked at them for a while, and said in a deep voice: "These surrendered troops are all your men. There are more than 40,000 people, which is an unstable factor. And I want to select at least 8,000 of these 40,000 people.

If you join our federal army, your life will be like a time bomb. You say, can I keep you?"

Seeing that the bodies of the three of them could not help but tremble slightly, Hupowder continued: "However, you chose to surrender in the end instead of resisting to the end. Those who understand the current situation are heroes. I like this very much. You are welcome to join the Federal Army.

Here, there will be a bigger stage for you to display your talents. However, our federal army only has soldiers who died in battle and no prisoners who surrendered. Therefore, after joining the federal army, I do not want to see you surrender to others again.

"

After listening to Gunpowder's words, the three people's original panic expressions were suddenly replaced by ecstasy. The first half of Gunpowder's sentence was right. If they had been in Gunpowder's position, they would have executed them to avoid future troubles. But they never expected that Gunpowder would

They had such a big mind and were able to survive despite the fact that they were certain to die. This made them full of respect and gratitude for Gunpowder. From then on, Gunpowder had three more invincible generals under his command.

With the assistance of these three people, the aftermath work was carried out much more smoothly. Soon, all the work had been handed over, and Gunpowder was satisfied with selecting more than 6,000 relatively qualified soldiers from the 40,000 surrendered soldiers.

Joined the Federal Army.

Just when they were packing up and planning to withdraw the wooden flag, two helicopters flew over quickly from a distance and landed slowly outside the crowd. A group of more than 30 soldiers wearing sky blue camouflage jumped out of the helicopters.

I saw them running quickly in front of Gunpowder, and after giving a military salute, a soldier with the rank of captain stepped forward and said loudly: "Report to Commander Zhu, we are here to ask the leader of the Three Banners of Xia Yuan on the order of our commander.

Something.”

Seeing them, Gunpowder couldn't help laughing and said jokingly: "Your commander is really impatient? According to the speed of your helicopter, it should have set off with the previous bombers, right? Do you want to ask the remaining Blue Flags

Where did the remaining personnel go?"

The captain leading the team blushed slightly and said with a little embarrassment: "Our commander said that Commander Zhu is like a god with his troops, and the battle will definitely be over by the time we arrive, so we set off a little early. We

This mission is to find the whereabouts of the Blue Flag, conduct reconnaissance, and provide guidance for subsequent troops."

Gunpowder looked like he was indeed like this, he reached out and pointed towards the northwest, and said with a smile: "I know your commander's temper. He will definitely not wait for me to come back. Are you afraid that I will steal his business? I have asked you just now.

, the people from the Blue Flag went to the northwest. As for where exactly, I don’t know. The Northern Army’s equipment was very poor and there were only a few vehicles. Moreover, as soon as the Blue Flag left, they fell into civil strife, so they didn’t have time to spare.

Find the specific location of the blue flag.”

After listening to Gunpowder's words, the officer saluted again and said loudly: "Yes, I understand, thank you Commander Zhu. Then I won't disturb Commander Zhu's work, let's go first."

After saying that, he led his men onto the helicopter and roared towards the northwest.

Sequoia walked to Gunpowder, and after she saw the helicopter disappearing into the distant sky, she curled her lips and said disdainfully: "This Scorpion is so stingy. He was afraid that you would steal his business, so he sent troops out so quickly.

"

Gunpowder followed with a smile, "There is no need for him to be so nervous. The prairie is so big. If we want to find the location of the blue flag in it, our army alone will undoubtedly be looking for a needle in a haystack. Only their air force can find it, but recently

Our army has been in too much limelight, he must be nervous."

With that said, he ignored the situation in the northwest and rushed to Muqi Town with his troops and civilians.

The helicopter is flying at an altitude of 6,000 meters. If you don't look carefully on the ground, you won't notice the two small black spots above your head.

More than 30 soldiers from the Parachute Air Service Regiment dispatched by Scorpion, that is, the special forces affiliated with the paratroopers, are now carefully observing the situation below with their eyes wide open. Even the slightest disturbance cannot escape their eagle-like eyes. Now

They had said goodbye to gunpowder for more than an hour. According to the speed of the helicopter, they were now in the depths of the grassland more than 300 kilometers away, and had long since left the Chinese national boundary defined during the civilization period.

Suddenly, a soldier exclaimed, Captain, look at the 3 o'clock direction. The captain immediately raised his binoculars and observed carefully. On the grassland at the 3 o'clock direction, rows of yurts were particularly conspicuous.

, based on the number of yurts, there is a population size of at least 40,000-50,000.

"Found it, find a place to land. The crew will take this time to refuel the aircraft. Others will come with me to take a closer look." As soon as the captain finished speaking, the helicopter began to slowly descend and stopped in a small

In the mountain col, the bottom of the tail fin slowly opened, and four small all-terrain vehicles retreated from the helicopter.

More than 30 soldiers all put on green camouflage nets to block the sky-blue camouflage inside, and then quickly approached the settlement in four all-terrain vehicles. When they were still far away, all the soldiers got out of the car, except

Four people were left to watch outside the car, while the others all got into the thick grass and approached cautiously on their knees.

The people in the settlement were living a quiet and happy life. They never imagined that just a few hundred meters away from them in the grass, there were dozens of pairs of eyes staring at them with malicious intent. Deep inside the prairie area

, there was not a single zombie. Because they came out early, there was no melee between the warlords at that time, so everyone came out with a lot of food.

In addition to reclaiming wasteland and sowing a batch of grain seeds, the remaining grain was enough to sustain them until the crops in the field matured. Although the land on the prairie was not suitable for growing grain, the leader of the Blue Flag, the one who owned them all,

Everyone respects the beloved female leader. The taxes she collects from the people here are very small. This also allows them to have a lot of food left over after paying the taxes, which is enough for them not to endure hunger.

Every time they heard how difficult the life of the people in the original three-banner territory was after the civil strife broke out, and even when people were cannibalizing, they were glad that they had a good leader who led them away from the whirlpool in time.
