Beiyang 1917

Chapter 77 Violation of Discipline and First Punishment for Sweeping the Toilet——

Wang Geng looked at Li Mingzhong, the new head of the 1st regiment, and smiled in his heart. The [-]st regiment has always been the main force. This Li Mingzhong is almost the backbone of the generals after Feng Yuxiang was dismissed.

"My lord! It is said that soldiers take obedience to orders as their bounden duty, but what I can't figure out is that the former brigade commander Feng loved soldiers like his son and devoted himself to serving the country. The Ministry of the Army dismissed Mr. Feng as brigade commander. What is the reason? Is it a crime to go to the Ministry of War to ask for payment in arrears?"

Li Mingzhong had thick brows and big eyes with a righteous expression on his face, obviously he wanted to seek justice for Lao Feng, when this fellow asked this, the generals below immediately yelled and clamored for Mr. Wang to give an explanation!Otherwise, the brothers will not accept it, and even the platoon leader and soldiers below will not accept it. If they are owed wages for so long, there will be a mutiny if they fail to pay!

Wang Geng thought to himself, Damn, could it be that Lao Tzu was so frightened that he dared to mob up and become violent, and didn't take Lao Tzu, the new brigade commander seriously?Open your mouth and shut up, my lord, do you not admit that I am your brigade commander?

"Quiet!" Wang Geng knocked on the table lightly, his voice was not loud but full of spirit. The word "Quiet" seemed to ring in everyone's ears. Wang Geng, but it depends on what this guy says!

"Since I am the brigade commander, I am your commander. In front of the commander, if you want to speak, you must first raise your hand and report. No one is allowed to speak without permission! Unless the commander asks a question, or the commander allows you to speak, please close your mouth." Mouth! Could it be that you, Boss Feng, were also so disrespectful when you spoke before?"

Wang Geng spoke in a neither hasty nor slow manner, but his eyes swept all over sharply.

"It also depends on what kind of officer you are. Boss Feng and his brothers have been here together for many years. Of course we respect him. If he is just a dude who has gone through the back door and messed around with errands, I am afraid of you." No, what if I, Song Zheyuan, are not the battalion commander!"

The one who jumped out was Song Zheyuan, Feng Yuxiang loved him very much, it was time to show his ambitions, but at this time he was suddenly dismissed, the evil fire in this guy's heart couldn't be suppressed at all, and now he jumped out to kill Wang Geng, the new brigade commander's army, since this is Langfang anyway, what fear does Wang Geng have when he takes up his post with only one adjutant and two guards?

So what if I offend you, at worst, I will take off my military uniform and go to Tiantai Mountain to farm with Mr. Feng!

Although Song Zheyuan jumped out to be quite disrespectful and provocative, the other generals fell silent for the time being. Obviously, it depends on how Wang Geng responds. Besides, the subordinates of Lao Feng are united around Lao Feng, not to say that these subordinates They are so humble and united.

Song Zheyuan is only a mere battalion commander at this time. Because he has won the favor of Lao Feng, he usually doesn't pay attention to several regiment commanders, so there are not one or two people waiting to see him.

"Captain Song, what I just said was the discipline in the meeting. I don't care what you think of me personally, but you spoke in the conference room without permission and insulted the superior without evidence. Since you don't care about the military Honor and discipline, to be the first warrior to eat crabs, then I will fulfill you!"

Wang Geng smiled coldly, turned around and said, "Shi Jingting, you are a military judge. If you knowingly violated the discipline of the meeting and insulted the superior with your words, how should you deal with it according to the military law?"

"You can be put in confinement, beaten with military batons, or dismissed!" Colonel Military Judge Shi Jingting said dryly.This guy is considered a veteran in the army, and he always disliked Song Zheyuan's arrogance, so he replied.

"This punishment is too simple. One more sentence will be added from now on. Violation of the discipline of reporting first and then speaking, the first demerit will be punished for cleaning the toilet for one week, and the second major demerit will be punished for cleaning the toilet for one month!"

Wang Geng said expressionlessly, but his eyes were fierce and the anger in Song Zheyuan's eyes was fighting each other without showing weakness!

"What if it's the third time?" Shi Jingting ignored the generals below who were holding back their laughter, and asked Wang Geng while writing it down in his notebook.

"It's only three things, the third time will be directly removed from the list! A glorious unit like the 16th Mixed Brigade never needs so-called warriors who can't even abide by the most basic discipline!" Wang Geng said firmly!

"I don't accept it! You are taking personal revenge!" Song Zheyuan pouted his neck. If Wang Geng hadn't ordered all the officers who entered the meeting room to take off their guns and hand them over to the guards outside the door for safekeeping, this guy might have already pulled out his guns Come to scare Wang Geng!

"Captain Song, you didn't report and get permission to speak again. Now you have to clean the toilet for a month. Of course, if you want to come again for a third time, then please find another job. The 16th Mixed Brigade doesn't need you Such a black sheep!"

Song Zheyuan blushed and wanted to yell, but Liu Yufen behind him covered his mouth and pressed him down. The man lowered his voice and said in Song Zheyuan's ear, "Be safe and don't be impatient! He's the nephew of the deputy chief of the army! Let's see what he says!"

In fact, Wang Geng’s so-called punishment was to clean the toilet. This seemingly child’s play punishment unknowingly reduced the anger and hostility in the hearts of many generals present. I'm afraid that more than half of the people will stand up and beg for mercy, but now they are cleaning the toilet, and some guys who usually don't like Lao Song are laughing gloatingly.

"I don't know why Boss Feng was dismissed by the Ministry of the Army. It's nothing more than offending some people who shouldn't be offended, so you have to pay the price. I hope Boss Feng can learn a lesson and know when to say something and what conditions What to do next, I hope he can come back to you as soon as possible!"

Wang Geng still spoke in an unhurried tone, "I punished Song Zheyuan not because he disrespected me personally, but because he punished him for disrespecting his superiors. To put it lightly is to spread rumors and stir up trouble, to put it seriously is to slander Shangguan!"

The conference room was so quiet that even a needle could be heard falling on the ground. Obviously Wang Geng's board was held high, but cleaning the toilet could only be regarded as a light blow. A young and handsome brigade commander who behaved so strangely, had to It's not easy to make people hate him all of a sudden.

Wang Geng glanced at the generals and continued,

"If you stick to me, you don't even want to be your brigade commander. I, like you Boss Feng, also want to bring a team of my own soldiers. The job of the 16th mixed brigade commander was assigned to me by Prime Minister Duan. The burden, I didn't want to take it!"

The generals in the conference room heard the words, whispering and buzzing again. Fortunately, with Song Zheyuan's example, no one dared to speak loudly for the time being!

Wang Geng was obviously very satisfied that the generals finally gradually began to understand that they must abide by the first discipline he set.

Of course, it's hard to say how long this group of arrogant and tough guys can last. If they hadn't taken away their guns before entering the conference room, maybe their tempers would not be so good right now!

"I, Wang Geng, neither got the position of brigade commander through the back door, nor was I some kind of dandy in the world. Both of my parents died when I was young, and my family fell into poverty. With the help of my relatives, I was admitted to the Tsinghua School of Studying in America!"

Wang Geng paused for a while, and glanced at the generals. Obviously, everyone was waiting for him to speak quickly, so he said again,

"When I graduated from Tsinghua Academy, I was number one in my grade. When I went to college in the United States, I was still number one in my grade when I graduated from the School of Liberal Arts at Princeton University. In the United States Military Academy at West Point, I was also number one in my grade for two consecutive years. I can't stand the two accusations of being a dandy!"

The buzzing among the generals became louder. Apparently, Wang Geng's academic performance and qualifications made the generals feel that he was a dude.

"Report! This subordinate requests to speak!" Zhang Shusheng, the leader of the 3rd regiment, raised his hand honestly.

"Teacher Zhang, please tell me!" A slight smile appeared on Wang Geng's face.

"Boss Feng just went to the Ministry of the Army to ask for wages for the brothers of the 16th Mixed Brigade, and then he was dismissed! What's wrong with Boss Feng? Our officers and soldiers of the 16th Mixed Brigade can't figure it out!" Zhang Shusheng buzzed.

"Whether everything is right or wrong, you must first find the reason from yourself. There are so many divisions and mixed brigades in the Central Army. Why does the 16th mixed brigade owe so long?! Why do other division commanders and brigade commanders go to claim wages and not be punished? Removal?"

Although Wang Geng's words were light, they were like a stone thrown into a pond, causing infinite ripples in the hearts of the generals!
