The First Tyrant of Daxia

That night was getting darker and darker like water. Dark clouds were floating in the sky, covering up the pale moonlight. From time to time, the tip of the iceberg was revealed, casting strange shadows on the trees on the ground.

After a brutal war, the entire plain seemed somewhat quiet and empty in the middle of the night. Only the occasional cold wind blowing across the plain brought some movement to this empty world.

Suddenly, a light of fire was heard in the dark night, swaying in the cold wind, like a small and playful fire elf constantly moving in the darkness.

"Everyone, cheer up and patrol well!"

The patrol leader walking in front was fully armed and turned around and shouted, "General Mule specifically instructed us to strengthen patrols tonight, which means there is a high possibility of an enemy attack today."

"If anything happens tonight when my team is on patrol, or if anything goes wrong in the area I'm responsible for, I will punish you guys one by one and will never let you off!"

According to the military system established by Qin Yun, ten people form a squad, one of whom is the team leader, and the remaining nine need to obey the orders of the team leader.

"Got it, Captain."

The other nine soldiers replied weakly.

There was a brutal war yesterday, and they naturally participated in it. After experiencing such a brutal war, their physical strength was almost exhausted.

After I came back, I just took a short rest for a few hours, and now I still feel very sleepy.

I feel the most sleepy when I am woken up after sleeping for a few hours. It would be better if I didn’t sleep at all so that I could be more energetic.

Now these soldiers hope to finish their patrol duties as soon as possible, so that they can go back and sleep until dawn.

But it's only a few hours until dawn.

One soldier couldn't help but complain, "If you ask me, this General Mule is really something. Today, we beat all of Bachmann's soldiers so badly that they couldn't even get up from the ground. Why does he torture our brothers and increase the patrol force? Can't we just have a good sleep?"

When the other soldiers heard his complaints, they immediately seemed to agree with him.

One of the soldiers whispered, "General Mu Le listened to His Majesty Qin Yun. I heard that it was His Majesty Qin Yun's idea to increase the defense force today. If you ask me, His Majesty Qin Yun is a little too cautious."

"We beat Bachman and his men to such a state, how dare they come and attack us!"

"That's it!"

"That's exactly what you said!"

"Be bold!"

The leader of the team in front suddenly turned around and shouted, "How dare you talk nonsense about His Majesty? How many heads have you lost?!"

Hearing the team leader's scolding, several soldiers were suddenly frightened and quickly shut their mouths.

It is a capital crime to make irresponsible remarks about the Emperor of Daxia. If Qin Yun hears it, the consequences will be very dire.

The team leader glared and said, "Everyone, pay attention and patrol, don't talk nonsense! Is His Majesty short of food or clothes for you? Or hasn't he paid you?"

"No...we were just talking nonsense."

Several soldiers smiled awkwardly, not daring to meet the captain's eyes.

Qin Yun treated these soldiers very well. The food they fed during training was the best, comparable to the food of some wealthy families.

The pay they receive is also very generous. If there is any combat damage or unfortunate death on the battlefield, their families will receive generous pensions, allowing them to fight without worries.

This kind of treatment is simply unthinkable in other places. In some places, soldiers are even forced to enlist without any choice. Moreover, during normal training, they eat wild vegetable buns, which is completely different from what they eat.

When soldiers from other places died, there was no so-called pension, nothing at all. Once they died, they were dead, without even a word of comfort.

In comparison, Qin Yun's Great Xia army was simply heaven.

These soldiers knew all of this very well, but the intensified patrols tonight really made them a little drowsy, and they actually said such things.

That's why the team captain was extremely angry.

Being able to become the captain of a squad, he has been under Qin Yun longer than these new soldiers. Naturally, he has a deeper understanding of how happy it is to serve as a soldier under Qin Yun, which is not comparable to these guys who have only been in the barracks for a short time.

That is why the team leader was angry about the rumors spread by these soldiers. Qin Yun treated these soldiers who came from the lower class very well.

However, these soldiers verbally slandered Qin Yun. Of course, the team leader was unhappy and reprimanded them severely.

After being reprimanded by the captain, the soldiers became obedient and followed the captain carefully to patrol the areas they were responsible for.

At this moment, a soldier walking behind suddenly said, "Captain, can you wait for me for a moment? I have to go to the bathroom."

The captain turned around and glared at the soldier at the end of the team, and said helplessly: "Hurry up and get back after you're done!"

They can only stay here for a while and then have to leave, otherwise their patrol time will conflict with the team behind them.

"Thank you Captain."

The last soldier hurriedly left the team and quickly ran into the bushes next to him.

But they waited there for a long time, but the soldier never came back, as if the endless dark forest had swallowed him up.

"Something's wrong!"

The team leader suddenly sensed an unusual smell, which made him feel a little nervous.

"Go over and have a look!"

The team leader said in a deep voice.

When the other soldiers saw the captain's expression, their expressions became a little serious, because they all noticed that there was something wrong with the captain's expression.

The captain drew his knife and walked into the jungle vigilantly.

Seeing this, the other soldiers also drew their knives and followed the captain slowly into the dark jungle.

"Wild monkey, where are you?!"

The captain shouted as he walked.

In the silent and dark jungle, there was no sound of the soldier, but instead there was a faint smell of blood.

"problem occurs!"

The experienced captain was immediately shocked and shouted, "Sound the alarm! There are enemies near our camp!"
