Empire

Chapter 54

At the gate of a residential building on East Street, Li Lang, the deputy battalion commander in charge of military discipline, surrounded by a team of military police, stared coldly at the soldiers carrying bulging packages.

Li Lang looked through the gate and saw a messy yard with several bloodstained bodies of civilians scattered around in the yard. Their lives and deaths were unknown.

"Take them down!"

Li Lang looked at the soldiers who had committed crimes and robbed the property, and with anger on his face, he issued an order in a stern voice.

The military police wearing red armbands on their cuffs passed by Li Lang with murderous intent, intending to arrest the soldiers who had violated military discipline.

"Who dares?"

But before the military police rushed to the front, these soldiers suddenly drew their swords from their waists and took a defensive posture.

The military police did not expect these soldiers to dare to resist arrest, and they all drew their swords and crossed them across their chests. The two sides were on the verge of a fight, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense. When

Li Lang saw that the other party actually drew his sword, his face suddenly sank, because this was a provocation to him, the deputy battalion commander in charge of military discipline.

"Put down your weapons, or I will kill you without mercy!" Li Lang warned coldly.

"Who dares to bully my brothers?!"

Before Li Lang finished speaking, a general with a hundred men and a group of murderous soldiers came running over aggressively, with countless swords and bayonets pointed at Li Lang's military police.

""Big brother, help me."

When the murderous soldier saw the general with a hundred men coming with his men, his tense face suddenly relaxed.

Li Lang turned his head to look at the general with a fierce look on his face, and then looked at the soldiers who were pointing their swords at him and others, his face was terribly gloomy.

"What, you want to rebel?!"

Li Lang's cold eyes swept over the soldiers with their swords drawn, and he asked in a cold voice

"Deputy Battalion Commander Li, don't flatter me, I'm not afraid of being scared!"

Although this general of 100 men was not as high-ranking as Deputy Battalion Commander Li Lang, he was not afraid of Li Lang at all.

"Let my brother go, and I will pretend that what happened today never happened. From now on, you go your way, and we go our way, and we won’t interfere with each other." The captain of a hundred men was also an unruly fellow, and he did not take the deputy battalion commander Li Lang seriously at all.

Instead of getting angry, the deputy battalion commander Li Lang laughed, and then his face became serious. He stared at the captain of a hundred men and said,"What if I don’t let him go?"

After hearing what Li Lang said, the captain of a hundred men’s face turned cold, and he raised the sword in his hand and said,"If Deputy Battalion Commander Li insists on having his own way, the swords in the hands of the brothers will not agree."

"Mr. Li, you are just a surrendered general, don't be shameless! Get your people out of here right now!" A soldier who committed the crime also shouted. The gendarmes who followed Li Lang were all indignant, but they didn't dare to act rashly without Li Lang's order.

Li Lang was originally a member of the Dynasty Army. Later, he was captured and directly incorporated into the 9th Battalion by Chen Ziang, and entrusted with important tasks.

Because Li Lang came from the Dynasty Army, he was always very low-key in the 9th Battalion.

Even though he is now the deputy battalion commander, the second only to Chen Ziang in the 9th Battalion, he still maintains a humble and low-key style.

But now, facing these arrogant soldiers, the anger in his heart is bubbling out.

Chen Ziang asked him to take charge of military discipline and formed a gendarme directly under him, but he has not really exercised his power because he is afraid of offending people.

But now these soldiers have killed people in order to rob property. If he turns a blind eye again, he will betray Chen Ziang's trust in him.

"Get out of here right now, or else you will be punished for the same crime!" Li Lang changed his usual weak attitude and suddenly became tough, which surprised the general who came to protect him.

"Mr. Li, we are General Wang's men, you'd better think carefully!"

The general of a hundred men immediately looked gloomy when he saw that Li Lang didn't give him face, but he knew that his identity could not scare Li Lang, the deputy battalion commander, so he could only bring out his superior Wang Hu.

Although Wang Hu was only a general of a thousand men, he was once the superior of Chen Ziang, and he was also a fighter from the same village as Chen Ziang. Most people dared not offend him.

The other party brought up Wang Hu, a general of a thousand men, originally to scare Li Lang, but made Li Lang lose face.

If Li Lang let them go, although he would not offend Wang Hu, his dignity would be destroyed in the future, and their military police who enforced military discipline would become a joke.

Li Lang had long recognized that the other party was a subordinate of General Wang Hu of a thousand men, and wanted to catch him and beat him up. The military stick can make a big thing small and a small thing nothing.

But now the opponent has put him in a difficult position. The soldiers watching the excitement around him are pointing fingers at this side. Li Lang knows that if the military law is not strictly enforced, the 9th Battalion will have no place to stand in the future.

And only now did he understand why Chen Ziang let him, a surrendered general, take charge of the military law, because he came from the dynasty army and did not have so many complicated relationships.

If he enforces the military law today, he will offend people completely, and he will become a lonely man in the 9th Battalion in the future.

Thinking of this, the deputy battalion general Li Lang couldn't help but curse Chen Ziang in his heart. This was simply pushing him to the crater on purpose, but he had no way out.

""Catch them all!"

Li Lang took a deep breath, his face became particularly stern, and he gave the order loudly.

The military police had had enough of these arrogant soldiers and generals, so they drew their swords and forced themselves forward.

The general of a hundred men did not expect Li Lang to be so tough, and he immediately waved his hand, and his men quickly stepped forward and stopped in front of the military police, determined to protect their own shortcomings.

The swords of both sides were pointed at each other's chests, and they could hear each other's heavy breathing.

Seeing that the situation was in danger of getting out of control, the officers who were watching the excitement in the distance hurriedly sent people back to the camp to find Lieutenant General Chen Ziang.

Chen Ziang was placing and rescuing the wounded in the camp. After hearing the cause and effect of the incident, he immediately led his men to the city in a hurry.

Seeing the tense situation between the military police and these soldiers, Chen Ziang's face also turned cold.

""Give me their weapons!"

Chen Ziang rode up to the front and loudly ordered Li Changqing, the general of the hundred soldiers.

Li Changqing waved his hand, and the soldiers rushed forward like wolves and tigers.

Those who blocked the execution of military law did not take the military police seriously, but they did not dare to fight with Chen Ziang's soldiers.

In just a moment, dozens of soldiers were disarmed, and Chen Ziang rescued Li Lang for the deputy battalion commander.

""Sir, I'm making it difficult for you."

Deputy Battalion Commander Li Lang strode up to Chen Ziang, saluted with his fists clenched across his chest, and then looked ashamed.

"You did nothing wrong, it's these arrogant soldiers who are too arrogant. Today I will support you, and we will rectify the military discipline. Kill those who should be killed, and don't let me down."Chen Ziang said

""Yes!"

After hearing Chen Ziang's words, Li Lang, the deputy battalion commander, suddenly became more confident and grateful to Chen Ziang.

As long as Chen Ziang, the lieutenant general, did not protect his shortcomings and supported him, the person in charge of military discipline, he would not be afraid of anyone.
