Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 121 Why do you want to mess with me?

This was Yang Qian’s first visit to the military camp outside the city.

This time he brought Wang Shigui and Chen Dong, as well as Cui Mingsheng's warrant.

I thought it would be easy to enter the camp with the warrant, but in reality it was still very troublesome. I had to go through three inspections and finally needed the permission of the guard Qin Zhong to enter.

Although Yang Qian did not show any dissatisfaction on his face, he knew in his heart that this was to make things difficult for him. It was not targeted at him, but was done for Cui Mingsheng to see.

Yang Qian was not clear about the twists and turns here, but he was sure that Bing Ya was very unwilling to fail to get the position of chief in charge of suppressing bandits and exterminating monsters this time.

I'm afraid today won't go smoothly. Yang Qian secretly prepared himself.

"Wait here! The general is handling important military affairs and will come to call you in later. Don't run around. Walking around is not allowed in the army. What are you doing?"

When they were taken to an open space, the soldier who delivered the message had a stern face and spoke rudely.

Yang Qian saw that this person was not going to talk to him anymore. He was just trying to show off his power, wasn't he? So he didn't wait for the other person to finish his words, turned around and walked back the way he came, ready to leave.

I'm here to pick people. If you guys don't welcome me, forget it. At worst, I can go back to the police station and pick the rest. What's the big deal? Do you think you can catch me?
"Please tell General Qin Ya that Yang Qian's visit is for no important matter. Since General Ya is busy with his duties, I will not bother him anymore. I will leave now." As he spoke, Yang Qian walked away quickly without stopping.

The soldier who delivered the message was dumbfounded. He had never seen anyone just walk away from the military camp.

Stop? Why? He came with the warrant of the yamen master Cui Mingsheng, and was here on official business. Now Qin Zhong said that he was busy with military affairs, so he didn't want to disturb him, so what was wrong?
However, when Yang Qian was almost at the gate of the camp, a soldier came running up from behind and stopped them.

"General Ya invites Captain Yang!"

Do you think Qin Zhong is sick? Why is he doing this? He doesn't have the ability to confront Cui Mingsheng, but he wants to take advantage of Yang Qian, the errand boy, to vent his anger. He is so petty and stupid.

In the end, they did not dare to let Yang Qian go, because they knew that if Yang Qian left, the people in the vanguard camp of bandit and demon suppression might not be involved in the garrison. It would be strange if the prefectural military office did not punish him at that time, so they hurriedly called Yang Qian back.

"Huh? General Qin Ya has finished his work?"

"Captain Yang, please!" The soldier's face turned pale, and he also felt that his own general did not gain any advantage in this sudden confrontation.

Yang Qian smiled and did not leave stubbornly. However, after turning around, he walked much slower than before. It could even be said that he walked very slowly, taking only one step in one breath with a smile on his face.

"Captain Yang, please hurry up. The general is busy with official duties and cannot wait for long."

"Ah? Yajiang is busy again? How about I leave?"

"Captain Yang, you!"

Yang Qian smiled, but he still walked slowly without giving the other side any face. He was still a little cautious about Qin Zhong being here, but a mere pawn was worthy of asking him for face? He was giving the other side face by dealing with him once.

It took Yang Qian a full meal's time to finally arrive outside the central army tent again.

First the names were called out, and then Yang Qian led Wang Shigui and Chen Dong in.

As soon as I came in, I saw a long table at the head of the big tent. Opposite the table sat a middle-aged general with a long beard. He looked very strong.

The aura coming from him was like a raging fire, very aggressive. Especially the look in his eyes, which was almost like a wolf. However, Yang Qian stood forward, his aura was neither fast nor slow, but it was like a copper wall or a mountain rising from the ground, blocking all the pressure from the opponent, and even Wang Shigui and Chen Dong behind him were not affected.

"Are you Yang Qian?"

"Yang Qian greets General Qin Ya!" Yang Qian bowed slightly and saluted. There was no smile on his face, nor was there any respect, he looked completely businesslike.

"What's going on here?"

"Yang Qian is here to select eight members of the vanguard battalion to suppress bandits and monsters. This is Lord Cui's order. General Qin Ya, please review it!"

The left and right handed the warrant in Yang Qian's hand to Qin Zhong, who glanced at it and put it aside. Then he picked up a piece of paper from the long table and handed it to Yang Qian.

"Master Cui has already told me about this matter. I have also picked out the people for you. Just take them away according to what is written here."

If this matter went normally, Yang Qian would just take the list and go down to pick up the people.

But Qin Zhong's manipulation had not yet made him angry. And if he really went back like this, he would not be able to report to Cui Mingsheng. He had to have an appropriate response.

Directly confront Qin Zhong? No, there is a hierarchy, and basic rules must be followed in the officialdom, especially when you are not capable of changing the rules.

So Yang Qian took the list but did not go down, instead he cupped his hands and said: "This is a serious matter, we dare not be careless, so we have to select these people first. I hope General Qin Ya will bear with me."

Qin Zhong looked over at him straight in the eyes at this moment, and said with a half-smile: "What do you mean?"

"The Vanguard Battalion needs a variety of talents, including spies, disguised soldiers, and combat soldiers. They all need to be experts. I want to see if the best fighters in the army are suitable."

"How are you going to choose someone?"

"This is easy. As long as you can withstand three moves from me, you'll pass?"

Qin Zhong was stunned at first when he heard this, then he burst into laughter, even standing up and pointing at Yang Qian, laughing so hard that he bent over slightly.

After a while, Qin Zhong said, "Three moves? Haha, Captain Yang is indeed a wonderful man. I think Captain Yang must have felt that he was very impressive for beheading an unknown general, capturing Song Qixun alive, and killing a few evil insects, so he decided on three moves, right?"

Yang Qian, however, seemed not to have heard the other party's sarcasm, and said with a cupped hand: "General Qin Ya is right. In Yang Qian's opinion, anyone who can block three of my moves is considered a master."

"Hahaha, okay, then I'll also see what Captain Yang is capable of." After saying that, Qin Zhong ordered the messenger to beat the drums and organize the troops to line up in the parade ground.

"There aren't many soldiers in the army, and they don't have much knowledge. Captain Yang, do you mind opening the eyes of the men below?"

Yang Qian was also smiling, even more brilliantly than Qin Zhong, and replied: "General Qin Ya is interested in this, so Yang Qian naturally has no objection. General Ya will do as he pleases."

Half an hour later, except for those on duty, everyone in the military parade ground was lined up here. There was a stone platform three meters square in the middle, which was the place where the army usually gave lectures. Now it was the place where Yang Qian was going to select people.

"Those whose names are called, come up. If you can block three of Captain Yang's moves, you'll pass. And vice versa!"
