Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 96 Taking office

"These two people are ignoring the law, pull me down and punish me with fifty rods!" Liu Qi shouted.

Those four officers and soldiers looked at each other, although they were considered to be on Liu Biao's side, they also knew that in the city guard army, Liu Biao's side had no right to speak at all.

When he was under the command of the deputy commander, there was no room for the deputy commander to speak at all. Now Liu Qi told them to pull the two generals in plain clothes down and punish them. He didn't know how to respond, and they all looked at the deputy commander.

But the deputy commander turned his head to the side, as if he didn't see it. After all, he is not the biggest here now. Even if he was the biggest before, he didn't have any room to speak. Just now he felt that Liu Qi would not let these people go so easily, and he didn't want to. It is not something he can meddle in.

When Cai He and others wanted to speak for those two people.

"I am the commander of the city guards. I am the biggest here. Do you want to disobey the order? Pull them down and punish them with fifty rods. If they dare to resist, they will be killed on the spot!" Liu Qi glared and scolded.

"promise!"

The four soldiers didn't dare to hesitate any longer, so they walked towards the two generals in plain clothes.

"Liu Qi, if you dare, you must know that we are not easy to mess with. If you want to use us to make an example of others, you will definitely regret it!" One of the generals said viciously.

However, neither of them resisted. They could feel the murderous aura Liu Qi brought when he said the words "beheaded on the spot". They didn't dare to question whether Liu Qi really dared to kill them.

"Hehe, threaten me? Believe it or not, if you say one more word, I will prevent you from leaving the gate of the city guard army today?" Liu Qi looked at the two generals and said with a smile on his face.

goo~~
Both of them swallowed, not daring to speak anymore, and let the four soldiers pull them out, because they saw the smile on Liu Qi's face, but the gaze they cast made them feel like they had fallen into an ice cave , just like being stared at by a poisonous snake.

Soon.
"Ah~ah~ah~"

Crack~crack~crack~~
A burst of screams, as well as the sound of a stick being struck, came in from outside the meeting hall.

Liu Qi, who was sitting in the main seat, glanced at the people present with a smile on his face, as if he was deaf to the sound outside, and it seemed that it was not his behavior.

Some of the generals who were still in the camp had sweat on their foreheads. Liu Qi made it clear that he was trying to make an example of others, and they were not on the right side. It can only be in vain, and no one will stand up for them.

Didn't you see that Cai He had already compromised under Liu Qi's toughness, and didn't dare to speak to persuade?

Soon, the punishment has been completed.

Four soldiers dragged the two generals whose butts were beaten to pieces, and walked in. They had seen Liu Qi's toughness, and they didn't dare to have any idea of ​​cutting corners, but they ruthlessly went to complete the task.

"Help them back to their seats!" Liu Qi said calmly, looking at the two generals whose faces were pale from the beating.

"promise!"

The four soldiers dragged the two generals back to their original positions. They couldn't sit down anymore, so they had to lie down.

There was resentment in the eyes of the two generals, but they didn't dare to say anything more, they could only bury this resentment in their hearts, waiting for the opportunity to take revenge on Liu Qi.

"Okay, I hope you will take this as a warning in the future. This is the city guard barracks to protect the safety of the people in Jingzhou City. It is not a place for you to have fun, and it is not your own mansion. I hope that today's incident will not continue to happen in the future!" Liu Qi said.

"promise!"

Everyone didn't dare to underestimate Liu Qi at this time, Liu Qi's performance now was not at all like the performance when he was in Jingzhou before, it was like a different person.

Liu Qi also nodded in satisfaction. At the same time, he also knew that at least when the matter was not clear, these people would respect him on the surface. Although it was a temporary solution but not the root cause, it would be much easier to act after he established his dignity.

"Let's start discussing business now!"

After the words fell, the generals also pricked up their ears. After all, they were also in the city guard army, and they also wanted to know what Liu Qi wanted to do, whether it was beneficial to them or not. This also related to their choice.

"First, from today onwards, all the daily affairs of the city guard must be reported!"

"Secondly, the usual tasks of the city guards are to guard the city gates and inspect the situation in the city. If there is something that oppresses the people in the city, I will arrest all the offenders. If anyone dares to cover up, who will command those soldiers? , then I will find someone, and the punishment will be determined according to the size of the crime committed by the prisoner!"

"Third, in order to strengthen the commander's control over the city guards and make more appropriate arrangements so that the soldiers of the city guards can better protect the safety of the people of Jingzhou City, please go back and send the city guards under your command Report the number of guards, armaments, arrangements, etc.!"

"As far as the above three points are concerned, I hope you can cooperate well with this commander's work!" Liu Qi said lightly.

It is said that there is no room for negotiation, and he has no idea about the first two, and these generals will not refuse. The most important thing is the last one, which is related to whether the city can be closed as soon as possible. The guards became his own private arrangement.

Not surprisingly, the generals were surprised. They could completely accept the first item, and they could barely pass the second item, but they had to think about the third item.

If you really follow Liu Qi's instructions, then the details in their hands will be completely exposed in front of Liu Qi, and Liu Qi made it clear that he wants to control the entire city guard army, which is so acceptable to them.

"Subordinates obey the command of the commander!" Cai He stood up and cupped his hands.

Hey, he still has some thinking ability, Liu Qi secretly thought.

"Subordinates obey the command of the commander!" The deputy commander also stood up and cupped his hands.

After all, the deputy commander is considered Liu Biao's man, and he doesn't control many city guards, which is completely acceptable.

The rest of the generals were not surprised when they heard the deputy commander's reply, but they were very surprised by Cai He's reply. They could all think that Liu Qi wanted to recruit the city guards in their hands, so how could Cai He Unexpectedly, how could he agree so easily.

They couldn't figure it out, but they also knew that Cai He's behavior must have his reasons. With the belief in Cai He's thoughts, they also stood up one after another, cupped their hands and said: "This subordinate obeys the command of the commander!"

The two generals who were reprimanded by the staff also agreed on their seats.

"So, let's go down and make arrangements!" Liu Qi waved away.

"promise!"

Everyone walked towards the outside of the meeting hall, and the two generals who couldn't even walk were helped away by familiar people.

"Cai!" As soon as a general walked out of the door of the conference hall, he wanted to ask Cai He why he agreed to the third point mentioned by Liu Qi, but Cai He stopped him with his eyes after he uttered a single word.

The general just remembered that Liu Qi was still here, so he didn't continue talking.
