After some discussion, everyone left. At midnight the next day, Tang Ning rang the wind chime in front of the team's meeting room.

Not long after, several monks arrived one after another. There were nine people in total. In addition to the four monks from the second team, there were also five monks from the first team.

Due to the serious casualties among the teams under the alliance, the two teams were merged into one team to facilitate management. The original captain of the first team was killed, so he took charge of the affairs of the two teams.

"Everyone is here. I have called you here today to discuss an important matter that affects our own interests..."

Tang Ning recounted the news she heard from Pan Xian.

After hearing this, several people were filled with indignation and expressed their dissatisfaction one after another.

"We can't let them slaughter us. Our headquarters has contacted other teams to appeal to the legion meeting hall and strive for the meritorious rewards they deserve. If you are willing to go together, prepare to set off at 10:00 two days later. If you are not willing to go,

Don’t force it. When the time comes, the coalition forces change their mind and issue merit rewards. If you don’t get a share, don’t complain.”

"Juniors must obey the orders of seniors."

"Junior, I obey."

Several people responded one after another.

"Since you are all willing to fight for it, well, let's gather here the day after tomorrow and set off together. You must try to keep this matter secret and don't leak it."

………

Two days passed by in a flash, and in front of the alliance meeting hall, various teams gathered one after another.

In the hall, the captains and stewards of each team, including the captains of each team, gathered together, but there was no figure of Jiang Huan on the main seat.

Tang Ning sat behind Pan Xian, surrounded by Nascent Soul cultivators from the headquarters team.

As time went by, several more teams entered the

Inside, about a quarter of an hour later, a group of people from the Fourth Brigade finally entered. The leader greeted the commanders of each brigade and sat down below.

At this time, a man with a leopard head and ape arms stood up. He was Shen Jian, the captain of the Ninth Brigade, who was also a disciple of Taixuan Sect. He said: "Everyone is here. We are going to the Legion Meeting Hall to appeal this time.

To be fair, everyone should not cause trouble. After arriving there, they just sat cross-legged in front of the temple quietly, waiting for the legion to send someone to deal with it. Everyone has no objections! If you have any different opinions, you can raise them now.

"

No one raised any objections.

"Since everyone has no objections, let's set off!"

Everyone stood up and filed out after him. Outside the hall, disciples from various teams were already waiting here.

"Let's go." I don't know who shouted, and many escaping lights rose into the sky. Tangning followed behind, and the mighty team of hundreds of people headed south.

…

In the majestic and majestic cave, a man pushed open the door and entered, bowing to the old man sitting cross-legged inside and saluting: "Greetings, Uncle Master."

"What's up?"

"In front of the legion meeting hall, many low-level monks from the headquarters came and sat in a group. There were about a thousand people. They asked to see the top brass of the legion."

The old man frowned slightly: "Is there such a thing? Who are they?"

"They are the Allied monks who were on the front line of Longhua City. My disciple has already inquired about them. These people are all monks of the seventh column. I heard that the Allied forces are not going to distribute their rewards for their achievements, so I came here to ask for an explanation."

"Nonsense." The old man shouted in a low voice: "Let them all go back. If they behave like this again, arrest all the leaders and discuss the affairs of the army.

Isn’t the temple a place for them to be arrogant?”

"Yes, disciple, please leave." The man responded, left the cave, and soon he came to a large hall. At that time, the front of the hall was surrounded by monks, all sitting neatly.

The man disappeared from the light and said loudly: "By the order of the commander of our army, I order you all to go back and not to cause trouble."

After everyone heard this, they looked at each other, but no one moved. Tang Ning saw others getting up, but she stood still.

"Are you going to disobey me?" The man shouted sternly when no one responded.

"Senior, junior and others have come to the legion to complain. We hope the legion will give us a reply." At this time, a burly man among the crowd replied.

"Who are you?" The man looked at him.

"Junior Seventh Column, Seventh Regiment, Third Battalion Feng Yuan."

The man took a step forward and came to him. His eyes were like eagles and he said sternly: "Feng Yuan, the commander of the army ordered you to leave immediately. Do you want to disobey the order?"

Feng Yuan saw his sharp eyes, then looked at the people around him, and whispered: "Junior dare not disobey."

"What about you? Do you want to disobey?" The man turned to look at the other person beside him.

"Junior doesn't dare." He immediately responded.

The man's sharp eyes swept over the crowd: "Without any arrangements from superiors, you privately organized teams to surround the legion meeting hall. Your behavior today can be classified as a riot, and the coalition forces have the right to detain and convict you all."

"I remember that you fought bravely on the front line to resist the rebels. With little hard work, you made another mistake for the first time. The army has issued a special decree to forgive you for this crime. You will not be lenient if you do it next time."

"Now I order you to leave immediately. Anyone who dares to disobey will be captured immediately. Start by cultivating

To condemn the highest.”

Everyone, look at me and I look at you. Faced with the strong pressure from the senior monks, no one dared to speak out, especially the commanders of the brigade, who were even more excited in their hearts. The man's words just now were very clear. If you don't obey the order, you must first do it.

Take action on them.

Under such circumstances, naturally no one dared to stand up to the thunder. Only one monk after another stood up and turned into light and fled away. The mighty team of hundreds of people turned back the same way, each returning to his headquarters.

…

At night, in front of the majestic cave, two rays of light came out, and two figures appeared. They entered the room one after the other. The person in the lead was tall and tall, and the person behind them had slightly white temples. They were the seventh column.

Inspector Jiang Huan of the Sixth Regiment.

The two came to a hall, where two other monks were sitting. They were Inspector Fengxian of the Fourth Regiment of the Seventh Column and Wang Yue, the deputy captain of the Eighth Regiment.

"Please three fellow Taoists, please wait a moment while I call Master Qin." After that, the man turned around and left.

Jiang Huan and the two of them nodded and took their seats on the left side.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, you are here too. It seems that Senior Qin is here for us in exchange for today's events." Wang Yue said.

Fengxian said: "I don't know what the attitude of the higher-ups is. I heard that Daoist fellow Huangjian who was directly under the column was very rude when he dispersed the people who complained, and threatened to arrest and convict those who took the lead in making trouble. Do they think what happened today is

Are we behind this?"

"No matter what happens, we can't escape our involvement in this kind of thing. However, since Senior Qin summoned us to his cave, it at least means that the higher-ups are aware of the situation. If they really want to get angry, they won't have this attitude."

"What Daoyou Jiang said is, once it comes,

Just let it go and wait for Senior Qin to come and he will know about it later."

A few people chatted and waited for a long time. They heard footsteps outside and a middle-aged man walked in slowly. The three of them quickly stood up and saluted: "I've met Senior Qin."

The man walked over to sit down and waved his hand: "No need to be polite, just sit down!"

"Thank you, senior." The three of them took their seats as instructed. "I invited you here because of what happened in the legion meeting hall this morning. You must all know it!"

The three of them looked at each other, and Fengxian responded: "Senior, we are not behind this plan. It was all contacted by the people below. I don't know who spread the news, saying that our column did not declare their meritorious service rewards.

Therefore, everyone was unwilling to give up, so they got entangled in one issue and went to the legion to complain. We only found out after the fact. I hope our seniors will understand clearly."

The man surnamed Qin glanced at him: "Knowing it after the fact? I'm afraid this is not true! The joint action of so many people, I heard from the disciples who were on duty today, there were over a thousand people, except for those in charge of the alliance and above, basically

Everyone is involved. As the actual commander of the regiment, don’t you know anything about it beforehand? Is this something that can be evaded by just knowing it after the fact? Do you think those above are all fools?"

As soon as these words came out, the three of them could not sit still and stood up one after another. Jiang Huan said: "We dare not hide it. I did receive some news in advance. These days, there is news that our column will cancel our meritorious service rewards."

It has already spread throughout the entire regiment, and everyone feels aggrieved after hearing this letter."

“Several leaders of the brigade went to the juniors, complained to the juniors, and said they would report to the corps

Appeal, the juniors warned them not to listen to hearsay, act rashly, and wait for the coalition forces to announce the results."

"Unexpectedly, they contacted each other privately and agreed on a time, so that they did what they did today. The seniors clearly know that what happened today was indeed not instructed by the juniors and others. "

The man waved his hand and said: "Everyone, sit down!"

"Yes." The three of them responded and sat down again.

"The impact of this incident is very bad. Master Qu, the commander of our army, is very unhappy. He was originally planning to severely punish the person who took the lead in making trouble, but considering that you have just returned from the front line and have made some achievements, I will be lenient and forgive these people for the time being.

Once. Tell me to have a good talk with you. Regardless of whether you knew it beforehand or not, and regardless of whether you were behind the matter or not, forget it this time. If there is a next time, don’t blame the ruthless military law."

"Yes, I will be strict with our staff."

The three people expressed their opinions one after another.

"As for the reward for your unit's meritorious service, the coalition forces have their own considerations, but no matter what the circumstances, an incident like this will never happen again. Understand it!"

"Yes, this junior knows."

"You go ahead!"

"Junior, take your leave." The three of them stood up and left.
