When Ma Xingkong took the battalion commander's seat, the first thing he did, that is, the first order, was to lock Heiwa up for three days. It was right that the company commander wanted to arrest him. Strangers who entered the military camp must be arrested.
. And Hei Wa was just a big-head soldier who dared to hit the captain and company commander, which was clearly an offense to his superiors. Ma Xingkong gave the order and locked Hei Wa in a small dark room. From then on, the guard camp had clear discipline.
, no matter who you are, you should resolutely obey your superiors!
The guard battalion is divided into three companies, each company has three platoons, each platoon has three squads, and each squad has ten people. The total number is only 500 people. The first company commander is to capture Ma Xingkong, named Zhang Peng.
He is a direct descendant of Zhang Zuolin. He started working as a bandit with Zhang Zuolin at the age of thirteen. Over the years, in his eyes, only Zhang Zuolin and Zhang Zuolin's family are the ones he is loyal to.
The second company commander Zou Kai is taciturn and does not like to talk. But he is a cold-blooded killer who does things viciously and will do whatever it takes to complete his orders. He was originally a ruffian in Fengtian City. Every time he fought, he would either kill someone or kill someone.
He was beaten almost to death. The police station arrested him three times, but he managed to escape every time. Another time he caused trouble and killed someone, and he was accidentally saved by Zhang Xueliang during the escape. Zou Kai followed Zhang Xueliang in order to repay his kindness.
The third company commander, Yu Mu, is a gentle man. It is said that he went to school when he was young. Since his fiancée Li Wei disappeared that year, he sneaked out of the school alone and searched everywhere. He searched all over the country and still found nothing.
There was no news. Because he fought against injustice and caused deaths in the Northeast, he had no choice but to become a bandit with Zhang Zuolin.
Among the three company commanders, Zhang Peng has a fiery personality, is not evil-minded, and is a straightforward and honest person. The second company commander Zou Kai is unsmiling and vicious. Only the third company commander Yu Mu is the most liked by Ma Xingkong in his words and deeds. In the end, it is reading
Those who have passed the book will speak in an orderly manner and act cautiously, steadily and orderly.
Although Ma Xingkong is the battalion commander, he still doesn't know much about many things in the camp. Firstly, he wants to explore the truth, and secondly, he wants to get close. Ma Xingkong paid for it and ordered a few banquet tables from outside. Please make a reservation.
All officers above the commander had a meal. This move worked very well, and many people left a very good impression on Ma Xingkong. It also helped him gain a foothold in this talented guard camp.
Ma Xingkong didn't know how to lead soldiers, and he didn't know how to lead them. He still acted like he was in the village, turning a blind eye as long as the soldiers didn't make any big mistakes. He had nothing to do all day long, wandering around the military camp with Liu Wu. Zhang Xueliang
There is nothing going on in the guard camp during normal times. Only Zhang Xueliang sends a few people to follow him when he goes out. Now that there is no war, they seem to be particularly leisurely.
It seems that it has been almost a month since he came to the guard camp. Early that morning, as soon as Ma Xingkong stepped into the camp gate, a tense atmosphere enveloped him. The third company commander Yu Mu hurried over and saluted: "Batalion Commander,
The young marshal is here and waiting for you in your office!"
"Haha, second brother, are you bored with me? Why did you come here to see me today?" Zhang Xueliang's arrival made Ma Xingkong extremely happy. He walked to his office in a few steps and shouted loudly through the door: "Second brother
Brother! Second brother!”
Zhang Xueliang heard it inside and went out to greet them. The two entered the office laughing and chatting. The orderly put tea on the table and the two talked nonsense. Zhang Xueliang suddenly looked around, drove the rest of the people out, and ordered Yu Mu to come in
The door is guarded and no one is allowed to come in without his order.
The sudden tense atmosphere made Ma Xingkong very uncomfortable: "What happened?"
Zhang Xueliang looked around and saw that there was no one around, and then said: "Brother, I want you to accompany me to the capital tomorrow. I wonder if you have time?"
"The capital?" Ma Xingkong asked, "Where are you going? Are you going to kill Cao Kun again?"
Zhang Xueliang smiled and shook his head: "No, it has nothing to do with Cao Kun. This time we are dealing with the Japanese!"
"Japanese? What do you say to them?"
Zhang Xueliang lowered his voice: "Father is planning to buy a batch of weapons from Japan. This matter cannot alarm other people, so it needs to be done secretly. We went to the capital this time just to discuss this matter with the Japanese. After much thought, only my eldest brother accompanied me.
It’s most appropriate to go.”
"Hiss...!" Ma Xingkong pursed his lips, took a breath, and said, "I'm afraid I'm not suitable, right? When I was in the capital, I broke into the Japanese concession over and over again and killed many Japanese.
I hate it so much, if I go, will it ruin the commander-in-chief's important affairs?"
Zhang Xueliang smiled and said: "Brother, don't worry, this trip is secret. The Japanese we contacted are not from the Japanese concession, and have nothing to do with the Japanese embassy. They are all businessmen who came from Japan in person, and Japan also has orders
, are not allowed to sell weapons to us, if something happens, they will die worse than us!"
"So that's it!" Ma Xingkong nodded: "Okay! I'll go with my brother!"
Zhang Xueliang said: "There can't be many people going this time. For safety reasons, we need capable people. Brother can choose a few from the guard camp. However, brother must remember that this matter is of great importance. The purpose of the trip must not be revealed, no matter what.
If Cao Kun or the Japanese know about this, we will be in danger."
"Understood!" Ma Xingkong said solemnly: "Don't worry, second brother, I know it well."
After sending Zhang Xueliang away, Ma Xingkong immediately ordered the entire battalion to assemble. After a few whistles, the group of more than 500 people quickly assembled in the compound according to the positions of their respective companies. Zhang Peng was the first to stand up and report: "
Report to the battalion commander that the entire company has been assembled. One hundred and thirty-eight people were supposed to be present, but one hundred and thirty-eight were actually present. Report completed!"
Ma Xingkong nodded. Zou Kai also reported that the second company also had a lot of people. Only the third company was missing three people. Ma Xingkong frowned: "Who didn't arrive?"
Yu Mu said loudly: "Soldier Long Jie, Soldier Hei Wa, Soldier Shitou!"
When Ma Xingkong heard these three names, he immediately became furious. These guys looked like they were battalion commanders and were causing trouble in the camp all day long. Not to mention the squad leader and platoon leader, even the company commander and the others didn't take him seriously. Today
It was my first time to gather together, but no one came. Isn't this an obvious way to embarrass myself?
"Adjutant Liu!"
Liu Wu stood up hurriedly: "Here we come!"
Ma Xingkong said with a dark face: "I order you to take people to tie up these three guys who can't be gathered together!"
In the courtyard of the barracks, there were five hundred officers and soldiers standing around. Shitou led the way, followed closely by Long Jie and Hei Wa. Each one was tied like a zongzi and walked to the front of the team, Ma Xingkong, with their heads lowered.
Ma Xingkong looked at the three of them and asked, "Tell me! What have you been doing?"
The three of them did not speak. Ma Xingkong snorted coldly: "Adjutant Liu, you left the camp privately according to military orders and failed to gather. What is the crime of rushing into your superiors?"
Liu Wu looked at the others, who were all looking at him. "Say!" Ma Xingkong roared angrily, and the entire barracks was silent, waiting for Liu Wu's words. Liu Wuyi gritted his teeth and said loudly: "I should be killed as ordered.
!”
"Ah!" Shitou was shocked and turned to Liu Wu: "Liu Wu, you are crazy!" Then he turned around and looked at Ma Xingkong: "Brother, you don't really want to kill us!"
Ma Xingkong kept a straight face, ignored the stone, and ordered: "Yu Mu! Pull these people who disrespect military orders out and kill them!"
