While the two were chatting, they had already reached the headquarters. Lin Jianyue stopped at the door and said to Han Baihang, "Brother Baihang, I won't go in."
Han Baihang nodded, and after arranging his military appearance, he stepped inside and shouted loudly: "Report, Han Baihang is here to report!"
"come in!"
Zhou Dongliang came towards him from inside, looked him up and down, and asked with concern: "Baihang is back, are the injuries on your body better?"
Han Baihang snapped to attention and said, "Thank you for your concern, Commander. Baihang is fine."
Zhou Dongliang patted him on the shoulder and said solemnly: "Don't show off, your injuries are serious. You need to be treated well and don't leave any hidden dangers."
Han Baihang was moved and said: "Commander, I understand your humble position."
Zhou Dongliang nodded, pulled Han Baihang inside and sat down, and said with a smile: "Baihang, you have been stealing the show along the way. Your name has spread to Commander Yu's ears. Now the whole army knows that there is someone like you who can capture someone like you."
Duan Zhigui, Qu Tongfeng, and Xu Shuzheng have made outstanding contributions and are simply the envy of others."
Han Baihang said humbly: "The humble job is just a blind cat hitting a mouse. It all depends on luck."
Zhou Dongliang said: "Luck is also a part of strength."
Han Baihang stood silent and became wary. From the moment he came in, he felt that Zhou Dongliang always meant more than he meant when he spoke. Although he said some words of praise, it was hard to say whether they were praise or criticism.
After being silent for a while, Zhou Dongliang glanced at Han Baihang, suppressed his smile, and said with a serious face: "You are the person I promoted. I have a share in your merits and demerits. I both thank you and hate you."
Han Baihang looked up and was surprised: "Commander..."
Zhou Dongliang stared at him closely and said: "The ancients said that if a tree is beautiful in the forest, it will be destroyed by the wind. If it is taller than on the shore, it will be turbulent. Your biggest problem now is that your contribution is great enough, but it is too great for you to bear."
, how many people secretly hate you, there are so many generals in the Zhizhi Army, but their merits are less than a fraction of yours, do you think this is terrible or not?"
Han Baihang was secretly shocked. He had never thought of this. Now it seemed that he was indeed eager to make contributions and took away the credit of many people.
Zhou Dongliang continued: "But this is not the most important thing. Yushuai has clear rewards and punishments, and others can't do anything to you, but you have violated a taboo. There is no other order in the army. All your achievements are based on violating Yushuai's military orders."
Under the premise, doesn't this mean that Yu Shuai is not as good as you, a small company commander? If other people in the army follow suit, where is the majesty of the military order? Isn't it a mess? Do you know that you have committed the crime of losing your head?
.”
Han Baihang's face was livid. He realized the seriousness of the matter. His merits have been undeniable throughout the ages. If he really offended the superiors, he would not care what kind of merits he had made until his death. He couldn't help but risk his life.
of cold sweat.
Zhou Dongliang looked at him sharply and said: "Shuai Yu is a man of great magnanimity. I know you made an unintentional mistake and I am not of the same level as you, but the merits and demerits are equal. There will be no punishment for faults and no reward for merits. You understand."
Han Baihang's face turned pale, and he slowly shook his head and said: "I made a big mistake in my humble position. I am grateful to Marshal Yu and the commander for their great kindness in being able to survive. How dare I ask for anything more."
Zhou Dongliang's tone slowed down and he said with satisfaction: "It's best to have this idea. Don't cry in despair. Let me tell you good news. Yushuai asked you to go to Changxin store to meet him immediately. I have prepared a car for you. Wait a minute.
Let’s go.”
Han Baihang was stunned: "Shuai Yu wants to see me."
"You are also a lucky boy." Zhou Dongliang picked up a piece of paper from the desk and handed it to him: "Take a look."
"This is!"
Han Baihang scanned the white paper several lines at a glance and found that what was listed above was a list of weapons. The number was dazzling. He immediately reacted and blurted out: "Is this the arms of Nanyuan Military Camp?"
"That's right."
Zhou Dongliang said: "Fortunately, you defeated Zhang Jinghui in the martial arts competition. Otherwise, if these arms fell into the hands of Feng Jun, it would really be a disaster."
Han Baihang was glad that he was able to fight with Zhang Jinghui at that time, because Wu Peifu's military order was like a sharp knife hanging above his head, making it difficult for him to ride a tiger, so he could only fight with his life, and he was lucky enough to win. If he had the choice, he would not
Fuck Zhang Jinghui hard.
Zhou Dongliang warned: "Baihang, if you meet Yushuai this time, you must be honest with him and don't play tricks, otherwise you will make Yushuai feel bad and your future prospects will be stopped."
Han Baihang nodded hurriedly. Now Wu Peifu is the second most powerful person in the direct line, and he has control over all life and death. If Wu Peifu is disgusted, his future will be slim. The only option is to defect.
After talking to Zhou Dongliang, he sent someone to take Han Baihang to the train. The train was filled with arms and supplies, and there was almost no foothold. He was tortured all the way to Changxindian. Han Baihang got off the military column, but then he
He was taken to prison by the station garrison.
Han Baihang was very panicked and had no idea what had happened. He had been in jail for two days and then the news came back: "Remnants of the Anhui Army have sneakily attacked the Zhili Army Headquarters and are under martial law."
On the third day, Han Baihang was taken away from prison and drove all the way to the former enemy headquarters of the Zhili Army, where he met Wu Peifu himself for the first time.
When Wu Peifu met Han Baihang for the first time, he did not get the impression that he was a commander blaming hundreds of thousands of troops, but like an elder. He smiled very kindly and said: "You are Han Baihang, you don't have three heads and six arms, how can you do that?"
Capture Duan Zhigui and others."
Han Baihang stood with his hands respectfully, flattered him gently and said: "It's only because Duan Zhigui and others are afraid of Yushuai's power that I have the opportunity to catch them."
Wu Peifu laughed and said: "Nonsense, what power do I have? Victory and defeat on the battlefield are all determined by real swords and guns. Don't treat me as a fool. I see all your merits and demerits."
Han Baihang said hurriedly: "I don't dare to do this because of my humble position."
Wu Peifu said: "Now that the war is over, there is no suitable position for you in the army. Now there is an important task assigned to you. Do you dare to do it?"
Han Baihang stood at attention and said solemnly: "In this humble position, I would like to be ruined."
Wu Peifu nodded and said: "Have you heard of Yongcheng at the junction of Henan, Anhui, and Shandong?"
Han Baihang pondered for a moment, then nodded and said: "I have heard about it from my humble position. I heard that there are dozens of bandits there, with thousands of big bandits and hundreds of small bandits. Howling is causing trouble in the place."
Wu Peifu said: "Yes, I want you to go to Yongcheng to eliminate bandits. If you can appease the place, I will definitely reward you."
"I wonder if Marshal Yu will give me a pair of young soldiers." Han Baihang raised his head and said.
Wu Peifu raised a finger and said: "With the strength of your company, I will not send you an additional person. Do you dare to issue a military order?"
Han Baihang said proudly: "I accept the order from my humble position. If the bandits in Yongcheng cannot be eliminated within one year, I will come here to see you."
