Chapter 288 Kill one to serve as a warning to others
Command downstairs.
After Gu Chan came down, he stood directly in front of all the generals and asked them to stand in a row of ten people, making them stand in more than ten rows.
When everyone was standing, she said, "Xue Lihua, Ren Nanshan, come out."
"Yes, Shopkeeper Gu." The two said in unison.
After saying that, they immediately trotted out of the team and ran to stand opposite Gu Chan.
Gu Chan looked at everyone and said, "Listen here, this military training lasts for seven days. Today will be half a day from now on. After that, the two of them will be responsible for helping me supervise you during the military training."
"Shopkeeper Gu, there are too many people. Let us also come out to help you supervise!"
"Yes! After all, we used to be generals. You should give us some face and don't let us follow you in training!"
"Shopkeeper Gu, can you give me some face?"
The three brothers Tian Ying, Tian Bao and Tian He all begged Gu Chan with smiles on their faces.
Gu Chan glanced at the three of them disdainfully, "If you want to come out and monitor, if you don't want to practice, just go and tell the Ninth Prince upstairs. If he agrees, I won't let you practice with him."
The three brothers instantly stiffened their faces, how dare they act blindly.
Originally, they had suffered a defeat and lost over a hundred thousand soldiers, which made the Ninth Prince hate them. Now that the Ninth Prince is here, he has already given them a lot of shame by not punishing them immediately.
If at this moment, they were still ignorant and ran up to disturb him, there would be no need to say what the consequences would be.
Gu Chan sneered and said, "Who else doesn't want to practice and wants to come out to supervise? If so, please come out and tell the Ninth Prince right away."
All the generals were silent.
Gu Chan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, now let's start the first part of the military training, stand in a military posture, and stand there until dusk."
"Ah? We just knelt all morning, now you want us to stand all afternoon?" Tian Ying said unhappily.
"Ninth Prince, does General Tian have any objections? Why don't you come out and tell him?" Gu Chan turned around and shouted to the top.
Tian Ying trembled in fright and quickly waved his hand and said, "No need, Shopkeeper Gu, I won't talk anymore. I will just practice whatever you say."
"We've stopped doing this a long time ago. We've talked so much nonsense. Let me tell you, the Ninth Prince said that you people are usually too pampered. You must suffer some hardships so that you can train your will. After seven days, we will lead you." The matter of conquering the enemy's army must be left to you, and you can make meritorious deeds. You can take care of it yourself!" Gu Chan said slyly.
When the generals heard her words, they felt as if they had taken a reassurance, and the resistance in their hearts instantly dissipated.
There is no doubt that if they want to keep their position, they must defeat the enemy and make achievements, and the current military training is actually the punishment given to them by the Ninth Prince.
After thinking about this, the generals certainly did not dare to neglect anymore.
Gu Chan stopped talking nonsense and shouted, "Listen to the command! Stand at attention."
The generals immediately stood up straight and did not dare to move.
Gu Chan said to Xue Lihua and Ren Nanshan, "Go get me a stack of paper and put one between each of their legs. If any paper falls on the ground, give him a stick."
"Yes, Shopkeeper Gu." The two of them responded with suppressed laughter.
Then they followed Gu Chan's instructions and immediately ran to get a stack of paper. Then, as she said, they put a piece of paper between everyone's knees.
Because the paper was quite thin, everyone had to clamp their legs tightly to hold the paper. If they relaxed even a little bit, the paper would fall from between their legs.
"Bang bang bang..." After a while, deafening bangs sounded one after another in the square.
"Ah... Ouch... it hurts..."
What followed immediately was the scream of the beaten general.
Gu Chan had a reclining chair brought over and placed it in front of everyone. She sat down directly on the reclining chair, crossed her legs and ate the fruit. Two female soldiers stood beside her to serve her.
Xue Lihua and Ren Nanshan each held a stick and walked around in the team.
All the generals gnashed their teeth in hatred and really wanted to cut Gu Chan into pieces.
In the meeting hall on the rooftop of the command building.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Qing was lying on the recliner, holding a chess book in his hand and studying it with gusto.
A soldier in silver armor walked in from outside the door and said, "Ninth Prince, Gu Chan asked Tian Ying and others to stand in a military posture, and put a piece of paper between their legs. If the paper falls to the ground, give them a stick. "
"Interesting, this Gu Chan ghost has a lot of ideas. Keep an eye on me. Anyone who dares to go against him will be killed directly." Xuanyuan Qing said with a sneer.
The silver-armored soldiers nodded in agreement and immediately left.
In the square below.
Tian Ying and others did not know at this time that Xuanyuan Qing had actually had murderous intentions towards them.
No, after standing in the military posture for more than an hour, a deputy general couldn't stand it anymore. After receiving a stick from Xue Lihua, he was so angry that he directly raised his leg and kicked Xue Lihua to the ground, and then angrily He ran up to Gu Chan, pointed at her nose and cursed, "You stinky brat, who do you think you are? The Ninth Prince asked you to train us, but he didn't ask you to torture us like this. All of us, after all, are the Central Plains Camp. General, who is not higher than you? How dare you act so arrogantly in front of us?"
"Ouch! Then you are so awesome, how did you lose the battle before? You also lost more than 100,000 soldiers, you really have the nerve to say this!" Gu Chan sat up straight and taunted.
The deputy general clenched his fists angrily, his whole body trembling with anger, as if he was about to go berserk.
"You're right. Even if you don't stand in this military posture, I will lead the people to kill eighty miles away and fight to the death with the enemy."
"Yes, rather than being insulted by you here, we would rather die happily on the battlefield."
"That's right, let's go and stop standing. I despise bullshit military training."
Several generals in the rear immediately sang the opposite tune.
After roaring at Gu Chan one after another, they prepared to leave.
But at this moment, an unexpected incident occurred. A silver-armored soldier suddenly rushed forward, drew out the long knife from his waist at lightning speed, aimed it at the neck of the furious deputy general standing in front of Gu Chan, and slashed fiercely. passed.
"Bah!"
The next second, there was only a sound. The deputy general's head was cut off by the silver-armored soldier on the spot, and it flew away and hit the ground.
The deputy general's broken neck suddenly splattered with blood. The scene was terrifying!
Gu Chan was the closest, and blood was splattered all over her body. She was sitting on the recliner, dumbfounded.
Although in ancient times like this, beheadings were common and not considered a big deal, when she saw this scene so close, the feeling was still very shocking.
