Chapter 66 Fa-rectification
Zhou Qi is from Zheng County and is still a relatively famous ranger in Zheng County.
Zhao Xu met him when he was a county magistrate in Zheng County, but to be honest, Zhao Xu didn't care much about Zhou Qi at first.
After all, Zhao Xu is still a law-abiding person at heart, so he never contacted the private salt business in his family back then, and he hated those rangers who violated the ban with martial arts.
But for Zhou Qi, as a wanderer in the county, he admired Zhao Xu very much.
Whether it is Zhao Xu's extraordinary martial arts or Zhao Xu's legendary deeds, Zhou Qi, who rarely leaves the boundary of Zheng County, deeply admires it.
So when he heard that Zhao Xu resigned from his post and was about to return to his hometown to recruit his sons and go to Lintao Dong Zhuo to quell the rebellion, he was so passionate that he immediately gathered more than 20 playmates from his hometown and became the first group of people in Zheng County who were willing to seek refuge with Zhao Xu.
Because of this reason, after appointing Pang De, Ma Xun, Zhao Han and Mo Ne around him as hundreds of generals, Zhao Xu, who was temporarily unavailable, couldn't help but think of Zhou Qi and promoted him to hundreds of generals with the idea of buying bones for some money.
So among these people, the one who Zhao Xu was most worried about was Zhou Qi.
As expected, three of the four wandering soldiers caught by Zhao Xu were from Zhou Qi's camp, and two of them were known to Zhou Qi without punishment.
This made Zhao Xu angry. The person he promoted himself was such an unreliable person. How could Zhao Xu not be angry?
"Ba, bha, bha!"
In Zhou Qi's camp, under everyone's gaze, Zhao Xu whipped Zhou Qi hard on his back with a horse whip.
Zhou Qi, who was born in Youxia'er, was indeed a tough guy. He knelt on the ground without saying a word, but just silently followed Zhao Xu's whip.
"County lieutenant, please stop beating."
Because Zhao Xu had been a county lieutenant in Zheng County for more than a year, the soldiers and soldiers from Zheng County are still used to calling Zhao Xu the county lieutenant.
Now, the two soldiers of the county guards who were protected by Zhou Qi were punished when they saw their hundred generals Zhou Qi were punished. They felt guilty and couldn't help but kneel on the ground and beg for love to Zhao Xu.
"It's our fault for the county magistrate's mistakes. Please, please be beaten again, don't beat him again."
The two knelt on the ground, slapped themselves in the face with their hands, and begged Zhao Xu with tears in their eyes, but Zhao Xu ignored it at all.
Twenty whips, twenty whips were beaten.
When Zhou Qi's clothes on his back were scattered and blood was oozing out of his body, Zhao Xu, who did not say a word, finally stopped.
"Zhou Qi, raise your head for me."
He handed the horse whip in his hand to Zhao Qi, looking at Zhou Qi kneeling on the ground, Zhao Xu, who was angry, finally returned to his usual calmness after he let out his anger.
His eyes were like a dull ancient well, and Zhou Qi, who raised his head, met these eyes, and his face flashed with shame, and he subconsciously lowered his head again.
"Do you know it's wrong now?"
Seeing this, Zhao Xu's tone became much softer.
Zhou Qi, who was kneeling on the ground, heard Zhao Xu's question, and his face became more and more flushed, and he couldn't help but nodded silently.
"Why!"
He sighed and helped Zhou Qi up from the ground with his own hands, then took off his coat and put it on Zhou Qi's body.
Seeing Zhou Qi showing shame and speechless, Zhao Xu could not help but look around and said, "I think everyone present must have a lot of resentment about my Zhao Xu's arrangements.
But today I want to tell you that even if you have resentment in your heart, the rules set before will not change at all."
Zhao Xu glared and looked around, "As for why, because you are about to go to the battlefield now, because you are about to fight against the group of Qianghu who are killing without blinking.
On the battlefield, there is no eyeless sword or gun. When it stabs into your body, it will ignore who you are! If you want to survive on the battlefield, don’t want to become a rotten corpse, and want to follow me, Zhao Xu to make achievements, then you must listen to me, Zhao Xu. From now on, I will continue to implement the rules set by Zhao Xu meticulously!
If you don’t agree, then stand out from the team, stand in front of me, and then take the money and get out. I, Zhao Xu, don’t need those bastards who are irresponsible to me and irresponsible to my fellow comrades beside me!"
The angry scolding made everyone around him lower their heads.
Seeing this, Zhao Xu nodded silently, "Okay, think about it yourself. I, Zhao Xu, said this today. If you dare not act recklessly without obeying orders, don't blame me for not thinking about the affection between the villagers!"
After saying that, Zhao Xu stopped talking about anything else and turned around and left without looking back.
"Okay, it's all gone, it's all gone."
When Zhao Xu left, he looked at the subordinates in the camp who bowed their heads and said nothing, just like frost and beat eggplant. Zhou Qi, who was still wearing Zhao Xu's coat, couldn't help but waved to everyone, letting everyone in the camp disperse.
After the people in the camp dispersed, Zhou Qi touched the robe that Zhao Xu had put on his body with his own hands. In the cynical eyes that used to be, he could not help but show a rare resoluteness.
...
After several hours, Dong Zhuo finally left Huangfu Song.
"Master, should we go back to the camp to rest now, or go see the camp?"
When Dong Zhuo walked out of Huangfu Song's central army tent, he saw Dong Zhuo, who had not had time to rest well after a long journey, couldn't help but look tired. Dong Ren, a personal soldier of Dong Zhuo's family, couldn't help but ask like this.
"Let's go to the camp first!" Even though he was already tired, Dong Zhuo still answered without thinking.
"promise!"
As a servant who knows Dong Zhuo's character very well, Dong Ren agreed after hearing this, and then led the way without saying a word.
But unexpectedly, at this moment, Dong Zhuo, who was riding on the horse, didn't know what he thought of, but he couldn't help but ask Dong Ren with a smile: "Haha, Dong Ren, what kind of behavior can my children in Longxi do at this time?"
"this……"
When Dong Ren was suddenly asked such an unprepared question, he was stunned.
But then, facing his master, he couldn't help but answer truthfully: "These guys who travel thousands of miles to follow their masters to suppress the rebellion are all top-notch good men.
But after all, they are not old soldiers who have been through the battlefield for a long time. Many people have not received any training before. Especially the hundreds of children under Zhao Lang's command in Zheng County are even more messy. They should not be as good as the old soldiers in the city who have been on the battle formation!"
