Under the twilight, the port of Qiongzhou Mansion looks more and more desolate, and the ruins are unbearable to look at. Mao Wenlong's fleet of steam engine warships has docked in the harbor of the wharf, standing at the high bow of the Fu ship, and Mao Wenlong has seen everything in the wharf at a glance.

The generals beside him were full of differences, and everyone knew that the port was attacked by the Japanese invaders. But no one thought that this port would be attacked like this.

Looking at the ruined port, these generals could already anticipate how fierce the battle would be.

Chen Jisheng slammed his fist on the railing, roaring, "Damn the wolf! ”

Chen Qiyue was much more sensible, and he said to Mao Wenlong in a deep voice: "Chief soldier, looking at it like this, the battle between the two sides should be extremely fierce at that time. I heard that we had only about 400 defenders, and we were attacked unsuspectingly. As a result, the entire army was wiped out, and the only survivors were the seriously wounded. ”

Mao Wenlong squinted at Chen Qiyu and said coldly, "What do you want to express?" ”

Chen Qiyue was seen through by Mao Wenlong, but he didn't have the slightest embarrassed expression: "The subordinates feel that the commander of Qiongzhou Mansion should be severely punished, and only when the commander is severely punished can the soul of the deceased be able to rest in peace." The rules of the army can also be upheld! ”

Mao Wenlong seemed to know early on that Chen Qiyue would be the first to stand up and say this, and he was not surprised at all. On the contrary, Haoda's face was very embarrassed, he thought about who in the army would stand up and ask Mao Wenlong to punish Haoxiao, but he didn't expect that Chen Qiyue, who had always had a good relationship, would be the first to stand up.

Stared at by Haoda's surprised eyes, Chen Qiyue's face was full of calmness, as if he didn't know that he had completely offended Haoda by doing that just now.

Mao Wenlong turned around slowly, his eyes swept over the faces of a group of generals with different expressions, and then said coldly: "What should I do, I don't need you to say much here, take care of your subordinates and do your part." ”

This remark surprised everyone present, according to Mao Wenlong's previous performance, he had never said such a heavy word to them.

Chen Qiyue's eyes rolled for a moment, and then he was relieved, and he no longer insisted that Hao Xiao should continue to be punished. Instead, he shut up and said no more, and then took two steps back and returned to where he should stand.

Chen Qiyue said so, and everyone else naturally followed, if he was fighting with Mao Wenlong at this time, he would be looking for death. Seeing that they all stood solemnly and stopped talking, Mao Wenlong's face softened.

"You all remember for me, don't try to overstep, if anyone dares to talk too much about this, then don't blame me for not remembering the old feelings. If anyone is not convinced, then I will have 10,000 ways to convince them. Again issued a serious warning to these old subordinates, Mao Wenlong did not pay attention to them anymore, and got off the fortune boat with a huge face full of excitement.

On the shore, Haoxiao had been waiting for a long time with the army, and when he saw Mao Wenlong finally getting off the warship, everyone immediately bowed down and clasped their fists and saluted: "Chief soldier!" ”

Hao Xiao knelt directly in front of Mao Wenlong, and said calmly: "Chief soldier, your subordinates should die, let the two sneak attacks succeed." Please, the commander-in-chief, surrender! ”

Mao Wenlong snorted coldly and said: "You really deserve to die, but executing you now, obviously cheapens you." Get up, go back to the palace and talk about anything, this is obviously not a place to talk. ”

Although Qiongzhou Mansion is said to be like spring all year round, it is still quite cold on the edge of the sea, under the fierce sea breeze. It's too late to stay here for a long time, and there's still the heart to deal with those troubles.

Haoxiao was very surprised, he wanted to say something, but he was directly kicked to the ground by Haoda, and then asked him to do it. Although Haoxiao is inexplicable, he is not so stupid, and his eldest brother can still believe it. After all, he is his own brother, and there must be no possibility of harming himself.

To guide Mao Wenlong, Hao strode ahead, the carriage for the reception had already been prepared, Mao Wenlong got into the carriage without saying a word and then galloped away.

The lively wharf returned to calm, but Chen Qiyu and others did not follow Mao Wenlong to the mansion. They remained on the ships in case anything happened to them.

By the time Mao Wenlong arrived at the government office of Qiongzhou Mansion, it was already late at night. In the spacious hall, only Mao Wenlong sat alone, and the rest could only stand at the bottom. In the dreary hall, only the sound of everyone's heavy breathing remained, and no one dared to make the slightest noise at this time.

Haoxiao was very apprehensive in his heart, the momentum of facing calmly just now was gone, and the rest was anxiously waiting for Mao Wenlong to announce his final fate.

People are so strange sometimes, they can do anything in one breath if they see death as home. And when this breath is vented, they will take care of this and that. Haoxiao was very entangled, and the more Mao Wenlong was silent like this, the more tortured he became.

"Ahem......"

In Haoxiao's torment, Mao Wenlong finally coughed lightly and squinted at him and said, "Haoxiao, you have been attacked twice by the Japanese Kou, you really deserve to die." ”

Hao Xiao knelt down when he heard this: "My subordinates know that the death penalty is inevitable, no matter how the general soldiers deal with Hao Xiao, I will never complain." ”

Mao Wenlong suddenly sighed: "Alas, why are you still so impulsive, as a general, you don't have the calmness that a general should have." Look at Chen Jisheng, he is also hot-tempered with you, but over the years, people have been negligent on the battlefield. It seems that you really don't look like you're fit to lead the army! ”

After a pause, Mao Wenlong suddenly shouted: "Haoxiao will no longer hold He's official position from today onwards, and will be temporarily detained in the cell of Qiongzhou Mansion." No one is allowed to visit without my permission, and anyone who dares to disobey the order will be punished for the same crime. ”

Haoxiao didn't have to die in the end, and Mao Wenlong didn't say specifically how to punish him. Although I was still uneasy, I also knew that things should not be as bad as expected.

Mao Wenlong couldn't say anything, and waved his hand to let the guards escort Hao Xiao directly to the prison to face the wall and think about it. Then he looked at Wang Bin and Li Dazhui, and said lightly: "You are the generals who have made meritorious contributions to the enemy this time?" ”

Li Dazhui took the lead in replying: "Subordinate Li Dazhui, the commander of the cavalry battalion paid a visit to the chief soldier." ”

Wang Bin also reported to his family afterwards: "Subordinate Wang Bin, the port guard has seen the chief soldier." ”

Mao Wenlong nodded and said with satisfaction: "You have made meritorious contributions to the enemy this time, especially Wang Bin, the general army already knows that it is you who led more than 400 subordinates to fight to the death against more than 4,000 Japanese invaders. In the end, you are brave and deserve to be rewarded for keeping the pirates out. Meritorious service in the army must be rewarded and punished, this is the rule. Say, whatever reward you want, as long as this general soldier has it, it will definitely satisfy you. ”
