Before he finished speaking, dozens of soldiers with guns walked in.

The curse words came to his lips but he swallowed them back.

Without saying a word, he threw away the knife in his hand and knelt on the ground.

"My dear soldiers, we brothers are only seeking wealth, and we have not hurt anyone. Please give us a chance and spare our lives."

Shen Hao watched several people kneeling and kowtow and ignored them.

Looking at the scattered oceans, he said:

"Everyone gets their own money. Anyone who dares to take more will bear the consequences."

"Yes, Sir."

The guests in the inn were so frightened that they dared not breathe.

Obediently pick up your own money.

These days, soldiers are no different from bandits, all are jackals, tigers and leopards.

But the officer in front of him seemed a little different. Not only did he not rob them of their money, he also returned the money to the bandits.

After receiving the money, everyone knelt down and kowtowed to express their gratitude.

Then, Shen Hao looked at the ten bandits.

"Where are you bandits from?"

The bald leader hurriedly said: "General, we are all soldiers under Brigade Commander Guo. When we attacked Echeng last time, we were defeated by the enemy and we escaped.

I have no money, so I have to rob some inns."

Shen Hao was stunned. This had something to do with him.

"Do you know who I am?" Shen Hao asked;

"Sir, I really don't know you," the bald man hurriedly shook his head;

"I am Shen Hao, the governor of Echeng County whom your Brigade Commander Guo is going to attack."

Hearing this, the bald man turned pale with fright.

He kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Please spare our lives, sir."

Shen Hao ignored the pleading bald man and looked at the waiter.

"Do you know them?"

The waiter hesitated and then nodded.

"Have they ever killed anyone, raped anyone, or abused anyone?"

The waiter said: "I have never seen this. They take people's lives, but they never commit rape or abuse."

Hearing this, the bandits relaxed their expressions. Fortunately, this guy didn't talk nonsense.

They also felt extremely unlucky. They just started robbing and ran into soldiers, who were their former enemies.

At this moment, they felt that they had gone out without checking the auspicious zodiac.

I guess his life is in danger.

Shen Hao looked at the bandits and said calmly: "Are you willing to be my soldiers?"

The bald man was stunned. There was such a good thing.

He kowtowed and thanked her: "Yes, yes, please take me in, Lord Shen."

The last battle left a shadow on Guangtou and his men. It was the first time they discovered what massacre meant. ...

I will never forget that scene.

It is truly a great honor to be able to follow such a general.

The artillery fire that day was really fierce.

Shen Hao said: "Very good, follow me from now on. If you dare to do anything against the will of heaven and earth, I will definitely shoot you to death."

"Yes"

These days, bandits still have some fighting power.

Many warlords came from bandit backgrounds.

After cleaning up, a woman in white with a group of children stood out in the crowd.

The woman had a big braid and bangs on her forehead.

Her facial features were three-dimensional and delicate, her skin was very fair, and at this moment, her beautiful eyes looked at Shen Hao with curiosity.

Shen Hao looked around and saw the woman.

Looking at the familiar face, isn't this the woman Bai Ling that Shen Hao is looking for?

However, Shen Hao did not say anything, but said calmly: "Boss, serve the food."

The boss looked at Shen Hao tremblingly and asked hurriedly: "Master Jun, what do you want to eat?"

“All the signature items are here”

"Yes, Sir."

Then, he looked at the man sleeping on the table and saw that he had a beard. Shen Hao guessed that this was the master Ma Feng played by Peng Yuyan.

Shen Hao still wants to recruit people with good skills for his own use.

Having such a master at least gives one some face. After all, all the major warlords are protected by masters. It would be embarrassing for Shen Hao if he doesn't have one.

The martial arts candidate was not bad, but he was beaten to death by Shen Hao.

In Shen Hao's opinion, individual combat power is always limited and is powerless when facing hot weapons.

Shen Hao saw that the female teacher Bai Ling brought a group of children and only had one bowl of noodles.

So he said to the boss: "Go give each of the children and teachers a bowl of noodles. Children need nutrition to grow."

"Yes, Sir."

Shen Hao's actions greatly increased Bai Ling's favorability towards him.

This gave her a different perspective on these soldiers.

When Cao Shaolin led his troops to attack Stone City, he killed everyone he saw, and even some villages were completely wiped out.

In Bai Ling's school, teachers and students were killed just because the students read too loudly.

Bai Ling and these eight children were the only ones left in the school.

In Bai Ling's heart, the fear of being a soldier is more terrifying than the fear of being a bandit.

Bandits only seek money, but these soldiers rob families and destroy their families, committing all kinds of evil.

83. Follow me, and no one will bully you in the future

There have been wars everywhere in the past two years, and warlords have been trying every means to seize territory.

The ones who are hurt are the common people.

The Tongmenghui and the Beiyang government reconciled on the surface and were nominally the Republic of China, but secretly, they were trying to kill each other.

Although the Beiyang warlords have not yet stabilized their regime, they have already occupied more than half of the country.

Although the revolutionaries also controlled several provinces in the south, they were ultimately no match for Yuan Shikai.

Yuan Datou not only had a strong military force, but also had the support of the United States, the Japanese, Germany, Tsarist Russia, and the United States, all of which lent money to Yuan Datou.

How can we win this?

In the age of hot weapons, wars are fought for money, and everything else is secondary.

Soon, all the dishes came up.

Shen Hao took a bite and found it tasted just average.

But wanting to eat food prepared by a chef in this place is simply a pipe dream.

The boss also brought a few bowls of noodles to the children.

Bai Ling stood up and walked in front of Shen Hao.

"Thank you, General."

Shen Hao said: "It's really dangerous for you, a girl, to be out with so many children."

Bai Ling's eyes turned red, then she lowered her head and hummed.

This was the first person who cared about her so much since she escaped from Stone City, which made her feel warm inside.

Besides, if it wasn't for Shen Hao, the only dollar she had would have been snatched away by the robbers.

Shen Hao saw Bai Ling's red eyes and he didn't expect that she would break down with just one sentence from him.

Smiling and comforting, "Look forward, life will always be good."

Bai Ling's face turned pale, and she took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for your kind words, General. I'm afraid such a good life really doesn't belong to me."

"Oh, why?" Shen Hao asked in confusion;

Bai Ling took a deep breath, looked at Shen Hao, and then she gathered the courage to speak;

“I am a teacher in a school and these children are my students.

Two days ago, Cao Ying and his soldiers occupied Shitou City and burned, killed and looted everywhere.

Everyone in our school died, and only I and these kids were left to escape from Stone City.

Now, I plan to take these children to the provincial capital to see if I can find their relatives to take care of the children."

"What about your parents?" Shen Hao asked;

Hearing this, Bai Ling's face turned pale as paper, her lips trembled, and tears suddenly flowed out.

"She...they were all killed by those soldiers"

As he spoke, tears rolled down his face like pearls.

Shen Hao patted Bai Ling's shoulder gently, then held her in his arms to comfort her.

This operation is smooth and seamless.

After a while, Bai Ling finally reacted. Seeing that Shen Hao's clothes were wet on his chest, she said a little embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault."

Shen Hao asked knowingly: "Oh, by the way, I've been talking for so long, but I still don't know your name."

"My name is Bai Ling"

"Bai Ling? Why does this name sound so familiar?" Shen Hao frowned;

This made Bai Ling a little confused.

Suddenly, Shen Hao looked as if he suddenly understood something.

"Do you know Ren Tingting?"

"Ren Tingting? I know her as my best classmate," Bai Ling said hurriedly;

Shen Hao explained: "It's good to know each other. She is my wife. It turns out that you are classmates. What a coincidence."

Bai Ling felt an inexplicable pang in her heart, but she herself didn't even realize it.

He forced a smile and said, "What a coincidence."

"Bai Ling, what are your plans now?"

"I just want to send these children to the provincial capital. They will be safe there. As for my future, I don't know," Bai Ling said in confusion.

She just ran without thinking too much.

Shen Hao smiled and said, "How about you go to my place?"

Bai Ling asked in confusion: "Where is the general talking about?"

"Mayor of Qing City. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I am the mayor of Qing City and also the commander of the independent brigade. My name is Shen Hao." After Shen Hao finished speaking, Bai Ling widened her eyes and covered her mouth in disbelief.

She didn't expect Shen Hao to be such a high-ranking official.
