Chapter 86: Chapter 74 Fei Xinyu’s Military Training [Add 5 for White Silver Guild Chief Jiuxueer] Chapter 86: Chapter 74 Fei Xinyu’s Military Training [Add 5 for White Silver Guild Chief Jiuxueer] “Yes, it must be very important. Who else have you mentioned this to besides me?”

Wu Tiejun took a deep breath, feeling the scum known as Fei Xinyu was growing on him a bit.

Reluctantly he had to admit, the man did have some abilities!

Although he had just insulted me numerous times as a dimwit, I’ll deal with these grievances when I find the opportunity.

But overall, his brain and abilities were not too bad.

“Who else could I tell such a confidential matter to, if not you, moron?”

Fei Xinyu rolled his eyes: “Talking to those other idiots would be like throwing pearls before swine.”

Wu Tiejun instantly retracted his former appreciation for Fei Xinyu, his impression of him returning to wanting to clobber him on sight. He asked in a stern tone: “Why didn’t you report this to Elder He?”

Fei Xinyu responded with annoyance: “Are you playing dumb? That old bastard detests me so much he can’t stand to see me much less listen to me speak. I don’t feel like seeking my own humiliation. I haven’t the slightest idea what I did to offend him. I’m an innocent man in all this, but it’s as if I had killed his whole family or dug up his ancestral graves… He can’t maintain decorum at his age, it’s as if he’s degraded into a dog…”

Wu Tiejun coughed, took a sip of his tea.

An innocent victim?

Doesn’t your conscience twitch when you say such words?

Do you really have no idea why people detest you?

If it weren’t for the Heavenly Clothes’ hard rule against internal strife, you would certainly be beaten to death by furious mobs!

“I get it. You stay here and keep an eye on things for me. I’ll go and inform Grand Master He about this.”

Wu Tiejun swiftly stood up: “Whatever Feiyi Hall’s Black Feather wants to do so much they’d risk heavy casualties for it, must be extremely significant and possibly detrimental to us.”

“It’s the one we suspected earlier.” Fei Xinyu reminded, “Don’t forget, you idiot.”

“I’m smarter than you! And if you dare to insult me again, I’ll beat you to death alive!”

“You keep watch here properly, don’t goof off like a piece of excrement!”

Wu Tiejun left hastily, as though his butt had been slashed with a knife.

Fei Xinyu kicked back and sipped his tea, completely ignoring Wu Tiejun’s departing instructions.

His mind filled with disdain.

“What an idiot. The tighter the scrutiny at the city gates, the more cautious the inside operations will be. He doesn’t even understand such a simple principle. And this amazing idiot is my commanding officer!”

“I’m the third son of the state-protecting General’s Mansion, forced to serve under such an idiot as his deputy. It’s not just a lack of divine justice; it defies the basic laws of the universe!”

“Those blind fools at the military department exiled me; those senile bastards at the Heavenly Clothes demoted me to a deputy… Life, oh life, is like a shitty turn of fate.”

After finishing an entire pot of tea, Fei Xinyu reluctantly came out to stand guard, his body as slack as if he’d just gotten out of bed, his eyes sleepy.

Anyone looking at him would doubt whether he could even catch a person, or even if he himself knew where he was.

The captain of the guard sighed in relief.

Finally, that obstinate Wu Tiejun was gone. Although he did motivate everyone, it was so exhausting. After a day’s work under him, everyone would go home with aching backs, cursing him all night.

Now Fei Xinyu’s here. Looking at his slacking appearance, everyone could finally take a breather.

Then, the captain was rendered speechless.

Because, although Fei Xinyu didn’t seem to be working himself, he had actually begun to drill the soldiers.

As a member of the Heavenly Clothes, he was already considered higher-ranking than a regular officer, hence the saying ‘one level up can crush people below’.

He stayed out of military affairs and only offered a little guidance. Who would dare contradict him?

But no one expected his ‘discipline’ to be so ruthless.

“Look at you all… What kind of formation is this? Are you ready to sleep standing up? Notice this one who is hunched over; what’s the difference between him and a well-formed piece of shit? He’s bending bit by bit… You moron, your body isn’t articulated, is it? Are you a fucking bamboo? Look at you, standing as a dry shitwave, straight and dignified.”

“And you too, what kind of soldiers do you lead? Is it seriously that embarrassing? Can it get more embarrassing? And this one here, collapsing like someone with a bad stomach, falling apart piece by piece… Is this what you call a soldier? Would you quit defaming the term ‘soldier’?”

He started yelling at the squad leader.

The squad leader turned pale with anger, his face flushing red. He didn’t have the words to retort… and most importantly, he couldn’t take him in a fight. Otherwise, this guy would’ve been drowned in the muck pile long ago.

“Damn! This one is actually an assistant squad leader? Impressive, you must have inherited the position from your ancestors, right? Or did you beg so much that you can’t stand straight anymore? Oh, wait up, could it be that you’re so overworked that your back’s giving out? How will your wife handle this? A soldier whose waist is bent from exhaustion? No wonder you’re looking so green… You better retire and go back to your wife, otherwise, you’d not only lose face, but you’d look awful.”

“Bro, listen to my advice; I’m saying this for your own good. Resign and go home, really.”

“Look at you all, each one of you looking like differently shaped pieces of shit, only lacking the stink…Oh no, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have said that… The smell coming from you guys is already close to that of a dead body inside a coffin, precisely that which was left unburied for three days during summer.”

“Retire here honestly, don’t dream about defending the nation anymore. If the Great Qin ever needed you all to go on the battlefield, we would have been fucked long ago… I can’t believe this could be called an army. My goodness, let me tell you all a life-saving solution – when you see the enemy, immediately kneel and beg, and call them your daddy – that would certainly save your lives. No need to thank me. I just can’t stand to see you all deliver meritorious deeds for others. Your type going to the battlefield would just mean one thing: death!”

“Seeing you as their opponents, the enemy’s commander would only cheerfully shout one word: Good! Do you know why they shout ‘Good’? You gotta think about it, think carefully about it, hahaha…”

“Seriously, I’ve trained many soldiers throughout the South and the North over the years, and I boast a broad vision, but I never expected to see this today. The Great Qin actually has soldiers like you? Honestly, I’ve lost hope in the Great Qin Empire since witnessing you all. Alas, I see a bleak future, Great Qin is done for, Great Qin is done for…”

Fei Xinyu’s words flowed like an unremitting torrent of filth.

The small squad of city gate guards was about to burst with anger.

An angry, bearded soldier couldn’t help but retort, “What merits have you earned? What gives you the right to belittle us like this? Is it just because you hold a higher rank? Are all officers of the Rainbow Guard like you?”

“What right do I have? Hahahahaha, what kind of person do I look like?! Today is the day you scumbags get a pleasant surprise…”

Fei Xinyu waved his hand nonchalantly, and with a clatter, a pile of military medals fell to the ground.

“Did you see that? This stuff was earned in battles since I was fifteen, these can’t possibly be fake, right? These honors for charging first, leaping through enemy lines, capturing leaders, and seizing flags, even the crown prince wouldn’t dare to fake these, right? The back of these even incise my name! It’s genuine, isn’t it?”

“What a shame! From fifteen to twenty-two, I earned around a hundred achievements in those seven years, which make me regret not having more. I feel useless, totally useless…”

Fei Xinyu tossed out another pile of medals, “These are the military honors I earned from twenty-five to thirty-seven years old in the northern border. Barely more than double of the previous amount, it’s such a joke, not even worth mentioning in eyes of the Fang Family… Then I joined the Heavenly Clothes…”

“You want to see my medals from the Heavenly Clothes, don’t you? Hahaha…”

“You’re right, I don’t have any right to chastise you. What right does someone like me have, hahaha…I have no right, before I was forty, I received less than four hundred achievements… my insignificant merits, how are they enough to chastise you noble soldiers? Hahaha…”

In face of this ostentatious display of meritorious deeds, the entire squad of soldiers, including the squad and assistant squad leaders, unconsciously stood tall, staring mesmerized at the nearly four hundred glowing medals laid on the ground, rendered speechless.

Their faces showed nothing but undisguised respect!

Even the opponent’s obscenities seemed justifiable – he had earned the right! Forget about swearing; he even had the right to kill!

As Fei Xinyu said, these things could not be counterfeited.

Every merit award was recorded, and the back of each medal held the name of the merit earner!

As long as the Great Qin Empire lives, these merits will remain.

One medal can secure the peace of three generations.

Throughout these three generations, unless one commits a heinous crime, common legal penalties will be exempted from punishment. The current generation is tax-free, the second generation pays half, and the third generation keeps eight out of ten.

After three generations, the medal shall be taken back, remelted.

It was hard to believe that the guy in front of them, the loudmouth who spouted filth like a cesspit, had such a glorious past – shocking yet real beyond doubt!

Ever since Fei Xinyu arrived at Yuezhou, he found the local garrison distasteful. As the scion of a general’s family, he looked down upon these lax military disciplinary standards, and had intended to teach them a lesson. This time, while bringing his collated information to Wu Tiejun, he also intended to reform the stationed military.

Although he didn’t have the proper power to drill them fully, he could still provide a life-long unforgettable lesson of mental shock.

Besides, there were some private anticipations involved.

In the future, without any accidents… Cough cough, let’s not think for now, otherwise, that idiot Wu Tiejun will fight over it with me.
