Before he even got close to the camp, Shen Qian saw a fluttering flag with two bright red characters printed on it.
In addition to the text, there is also a strange beast pattern.
At first glance, it looks like a horse, with a white head, a bright red tail, and tiger-like patterns. It is an unusual and majestic horse.
"Is that the strange beast Lu Shu from the Classic of Mountains and Seas?"
Shen Qian frowned.
"Yes, it is said that all the battalions of Jiangzhong Army are named after strange beasts from the Book of Mountains and Seas."
Shang Zuo replied seriously.
"Then there should be a real Lu Shu..."
Shen Qian murmured.
Shang Zuo glanced at Shen Qian in surprise, as if he wanted to say anything but held back.
Shen Qian probably knew what he was thinking.
Let’s not talk about whether all the strange beasts in the Book of Mountains and Seas really exist. Even if they do exist, they are definitely extremely powerful. No one would have the ability to capture them alive, let alone use them as guard mascots.
After checking their identities, the two walked into the Lushu camp and first came outside the commander's account.
Shen Qian was waiting outside, and Shang Zuo went in first to report.
After a while, Shang Zuo came out again.
"Report, Commander Yu is out and not in the camp!"
"Out?"
After Shen Qian was startled, his brows furrowed tightly.
What a joke!
If Yu Shou had no idea that Shen Qian would officially enlist in the army today, Shen Qian would not believe it.
Shen Qian didn't see Yu Shousi when he was in the school auditorium before. At that time, he thought that Yu Shousi had been waiting for him in the Lushu camp, but who knew that this would be the result.
"What kind of plane..."
Shen Qian pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Forget it, let's go directly to the ground!"
According to the normal process, Shen Qian should first pay a visit to the commander-in-chief, then get to know a group of colleagues under the commander-in-chief's recommendation, and finally take up the post.
But since Yu Shou had ignored him and no one seemed to come to greet him, he simply skipped it.
The Tenth Company of the Lushu Camp were stationed close to each other, and Shen Qian and Shang Zuo followed the First Company and walked over.
It must be during the training time, and you can see rows of military warriors shouting and lining up. At a glance, they are really majestic and solemn.
"As expected of the Jiangzhong Army, Lushu Camp should not be ranked high, but they can have such a military appearance."
Shen Qian sighed silently.
Long ago, when Shen Qian learned that Yu Shou was from Lushu Camp, he had done some research on him.
Jiangzhong Army has a total of thirteen battalions, and the Lushu Battalion is not very prominent among them.
But this is actually only a relative term. After all, Jiang Zhongjun ranks in the front row in China, and the lower limit is right there. It is destined not to be too low.
The warriors also noticed the two people walking by, but they just glanced at them curiously and then looked away.
Shen Qian moved forward all the way, passing one company after another.
"...Seven companies, eight companies, ten companies!"
"Huh?"
Shen Qian was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Shang Zuo, who was also confused.
Shen Qian was finally able to confirm that he had read correctly.
There is no Jiulian...what the hell?
Shang Zuo found a guard patrolling the roadside and asked a few questions. He quickly came back with a strange look on his face.
"How do you say it?" Shen Qian asked.
Shang Zuo didn't say a word, but just led Shen Qian to the intersection of a small road.
Shen Qian confirmed something from Shang Zuo's expression. He frowned, then took a few steps back and looked at it carefully.
This is a narrow intersection sandwiched between the Eighth Company and the Tenth Company.
It's overgrown with weeds and there are no signs at all.
Shen Qian and Shang Zuo also passed by here twice before, but they just didn't recognize that this was actually a road.
"...that bastard Lao Huang lost again last night, hahaha, his salary for the next three months is gone!"
"Hey, Wang Jing has been too lucky recently, so you can't play with him."
Just when Shen Qian was distracted, two cursing voices sounded from behind Shen Qian, and then he saw two disheveled warriors with arms around each other staggering past them, carrying a sense of smell. Strong smell of alcohol.
"Excuse me, is the Ninth Company here?"
Shen Qian asked in a deep voice.
The two men paused, then glanced at Shen Qian, but did not answer him at all, and went straight into the path.
"You..."
Just as Shang Zuo was about to shout out, Shen Qian stretched out his hand to stop him.
It wasn't until the two people disappeared at the end of the path that Shen Qian breathed out, "Let's go in and have a look."
Shen Qian took Shang Zuo into the path and walked slowly towards the depths.
After about a few kilometers, the scene suddenly became empty, and a sparse camp appeared.
Compared with other company sites, this camp with a crooked sign at the door is not only very small, but also looks extremely shabby compared to the neat and orderly appearance of other company sites.
"This is more than just a mess..."
Shen Qian actually smiled. He stood there and felt the noise of the camp, and listened to the various sounds for a while before he stepped into the gate of the camp.
"Stop, military restricted area, no unauthorized entry!"
The guard at the door stopped Shen Qian in time, which gave Shen Qian some comfort, at least he wasn't that useless.
"Little brother, let Lin Tong come to see me."
So Shen Qian's attitude was extremely warm.
The guard was stunned for a moment when he heard Lin Tong's name, but when he saw the military documents produced by Shang Zuo, he quickly stood up and saluted, and then ran in without saying a word.
Lin Tong is the centurion of the Ninth Company and the designated liaison person of the military department, so Shen Qian only knows this name.
If there is anyone in Lushu camp who will definitely know the time of his taking office in advance, it must be this person.
What made Shen Qian frown was that he waited for another ten minutes before he saw a middle-aged warrior arriving late.
"Are you Lin Tong?"
Shen Qian frowned.
"Reporting to the company commander, I am the adjutant of the first team, Shen Cong!" The bearded middle-aged man stood at attention and said loudly.
"Where's Lin Tongren?" Shen Qian frowned deeper.
"Report to the company commander, Captain Lin is inconvenient, please go see him." This middle-aged man, who is from the same family as Shen Qian, replied after hesitation.
"Presumptuous!"
Shang Zuo shouted angrily, but just as he was about to take action, he stepped forward again and stopped him.
"Lead the way."
Shen Qianqian said expressionlessly.
Shen Cong led the two of them on a detour, and finally came to a relatively quiet courtyard in the corner of the camp. There were two guards at the door, but when they saw Shen Qian, they just saluted silently.
Shen Qian walked into the courtyard silently, and then saw Lin Tong in the back room.
But the scene inside the house made him slightly stunned.
Bah!
"Lin Tong, centurion of the first team of the ninth company of Jiangzhong Army's Lushu Camp, report to the company commander!"
Before Shen Qian could react, the pale young man, about thirty years old, who was lying on the hospital bed, had already struggled to kneel on one knee and performed a military salute, while letting out a suppressed groan.
"Captain!"
The bearded Shen Cong was a little anxious, but he hesitated to step forward under the young man's stern eyes.
Shen Qian was not in a hurry to speak, and Lin Tongbian kept kneeling.
It wasn't until drops of sweat appeared on his forehead that Shen Qian said calmly: "Are your legs useless?"
"It's just a temporary injury, it will be fine." Lin Tong replied in a hoarse voice.
"Get up."
Shen Qian said something, and Shen Cong quickly stepped forward and helped Lin Tong back to the bed.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
Shen Qian sat down on the chair next to him and asked.
"As you can see, Company Commander, the Ninth Company has been weak for a long time. Now, whether it is organization, armaments or treatment, it is the worst in the entire Lushu Camp. The lower-level non-commissioned officers are unwilling to make progress, the middle-level non-commissioned officers are ignorant, and the subordinates... …I tried my best.”
Lin Tong was silent for a while and then said.
"Where's the root cause?"
Shen Qian was very satisfied. Lin Tong was very smart and knew that he was not asking about his injury.
"There are many reasons, but if you want to trace the root cause, it started ten years ago."
Lin Tong said cautiously.
"Ten years ago?" Shen Qian raised his eyebrows when he heard this sensitive age, "You're not going to tell me that this has something to do with Jiang Chengye, right?"
"Ten years ago, Jiang Chengye was the commander of the Ninth Company."
Lin Tong relaxed a little and replied.
Shen Qian was a little dazed.
What kind of feud is this?
He actually came to the place where Jiang Chengye once stayed.
Shen Qian shook his head and frowned: "So, after Jiang Chengye's accident, the Ninth Company was in ruins? What about Commander Yu, he also turned a blind eye?"
"I don't know, I just..."
"Finished." Shen Qian said two more words lightly.
Lin Tong felt tremendous mental pressure for no reason. He was a little shocked that Shen Qian could be so powerful at the age of seventeen. Thinking of some rumors, Lin Tong felt more confident in his heart, and his tone immediately became smoother.
"In recent years, we have happened to encounter a point of military restructuring. The commanders of Lushu Camp have been changed. Commander Yu only took office this year. There must be no time to rectify it. There may also be some laissez-faire factors."
Lin Tong hesitated for a moment and continued, "Each camp in the Jiangzhong Army advocates the supremacy of strength. In addition to the basic quota, other resources need to be obtained through competition. However, our Lushu Battalion has been in turmoil for years, so the form of competition is relatively unruly. ..."
"Why is it against the rules?" Shen Qian broke the casserole and asked.
"The bigger your fist is, the more resources you will get."
Lin Tong finally showed a wry smile, "For example, the camp originally occupied by our Ninth Company was similar to that of the Eighth Company and the Tenth Company..."
Shen Qian suddenly realized.
No wonder he just felt that the camps of the Eighth Company and the Tenth Company seemed to be larger than those of other companies.
"The big fist has the final say?" Shen Qian murmured to himself, "This is easier to handle..."
He doesn't bother to care about the historical roots, and he's not here to investigate the case.
"What happened to your injury?"
Shen Qian had just examined Lin Tong.
He could tell that Lin Tong had mostly new injuries.
None of them are fatal, but if the elixirs and medical conditions are insufficient, it will take a long time.
"Three days ago, I had a fight with several centurions from the fifth company because of the distribution of satiety pills and concentrated juice." Lin Tong said briefly.
"How many are there?"
"Six."
"How many of you are there?"
"...It's just me."
"What about the other centurions of the Ninth Company?"
Shen Qian narrowed his eyes.
Although the Ninth Company is not fully organized, theoretically there should be at least four centurions left.
"The uneven distribution is just ordinary warriors, they... didn't take any action."
Lin Tong said it more implicitly, but it was enough to get the information.
"I know."
Shen Qian did not continue to ask, but closed his eyes slightly.
The room fell silent.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Qian opened his eyes again and asked, "Where does Jiulian usually hold its meetings?"
"Reporting to the company commander, it used to be in the auditorium when there was a auditorium, but now it is usually in the open space in the middle, but it has been a long time since there has been a group meeting!"
While Lin Tong was coughing, Shen Cong spoke loudly first.
"How about the Disciplinary Officer?" Shen Qian looked at Lin Tong.
"He was transferred here just this year, no problem." Lin Tong replied.
"Okay, Shen Cong!" Shen Qian said in a deep voice.
"Arrived!"
"You take my warrant and go to the Discipline Team. Together with the Discipline Team, call everyone in the Ninth Company to the open space. Anyone who has not arrived in ten minutes will be treated as a deserter."
Shen Qian took off the brand new captain's token from his waist and threw it to Shen Cong.
"Yes!"
Shen Cong perked up, took the token with both hands and quickly disappeared outside the door like a whirlwind.
Shen Qian turned his attention to Lin Tong and suddenly took action. Before Lin Tong had time to react, he had already wiped out several joints on his body.
After the "crackling" sound, Lin Tong, who looked stunned, showed surprise.
He found that those severely damaged bones had been corrected in an instant.
Shen Qian threw another small porcelain vase over.
"It contains a special 'advanced medical mixture'. Drink half of it now and it will be enough for you to walk. If you drink the rest in a day, your injuries should be better."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Shen Qian said calmly.
Lin Tong's body trembled and he showed an expression of disbelief.
It's not that he doubts the effectiveness of the mixture, but because Shen Qian was so generous in his actions!
Advanced medical mixtures are normally only used by mountain and sea warriors, and are not accessible to casual warriors.
Not just because it is effective for mountains and seas, but because it is expensive.
Just such a small bottle in my hand, only 100 ml, is worth nearly 300,000 yuan.
It is equivalent to Lin Tong’s current salary income for one year.
"This is your reward for telling me the truth, but... don't play any tricks in front of me in the future."
Shen Qian took another deep look at Lin Tong, then strode out of the bedroom, and Shang Zuo quickly followed.
Watching Shen Qian's tall back disappear outside the door, Lin Tong's eyes were extremely complicated.
In fact, he learned yesterday that General Shen was serving as the commander of the Ninth Company. Lin Tong was curious, fearful, and contemptuous of the national martial arts champion who had countless news rumors on the Internet and had countless auras in reality.
He knew that the appointment of the military department could not be a child's play, but he did not believe that Shen Qian was really capable.
He's only seventeen years old... Thinking about what he was doing when he was seventeen years old, Lin Tong really can't muster any confidence.
He admitted that he was pretending today, and that his injury was not really to the point where he could not get out of bed.
His original plan was to tell Shen Qian what he knew, which would count as fulfilling his duty, and then just watch and see what Shen Qian would do.
Whether the outcome is good or bad, it has nothing to do with him.
But at this moment...
Glancing at the small porcelain bottle in his hand, Lin Tong took a deep breath, uncorked the bottle in his hand, drank the mixture in one gulp, and then jumped out of bed.
Although the bone-chilling pain that exceeded the limit of endurance invaded his whole body, Lin Tong's expression remained unchanged, and his eyes even became brighter.
"Come here, get my military uniform!"
Three hundred thousand is not an astronomical figure, but Shen Qian's understatement was enough to rekindle his confidence.
Even though Lin Tong has been disappointed countless times.
……
After leaving the courtyard, Shen Qian quickly rubbed his face and bared his teeth when no one noticed.
...It’s so tiring to hold tight all the time!
Shen Qian complained in his heart, but he knew it was not time to relax yet, so he quickly returned to his calm and solemn look, and strode toward the open space in the middle of the Nine Company Camp with steady steps. .
He doesn't have that much time to spend here, and he probably understands why Yu Shou has been "hiding".
"Isn't it just to be a villain for once?"
Shen Qian muttered, "Let's see when you can't sit still..."
