The trap came too suddenly. For some reason, Qin Lang felt like he mysteriously became Dragon Snake's' guardian '. That was why he asked Wu Caiyun, "I say, Great Miss Wu, did you make a mistake? When did he tell me that he wanted me to become Dragon Snake's guardian?"
"Do you have a Dragon Snake secret order?" Wu Caiyun replied with a question.
Qin Lang nodded.
"Do you know how many pieces of this Dragon Snake secret order there are?" Wu Caiyun continued to ask.
Qin Lang shook his head.
"Only this one." This time, the one who replied was Dai Ding. He said to Qin Lang with a smile, "Brother Qin, master has put a lot of thought into this. I hope you won't let him down."
Qin Lang discovered that Marquis Wu Ming really was a chess expert. This old fella only gifted him a piece of metal, yet he schemed against him. He first told Qin Lang that this thing was a supervisory order, a good item that could prevent him from being chased down by Six Doors Gate. Then, he told Qin Lang that this thing was called a Dragon Snake secret order, that it could be used to mobilize Dragon Snake's field personnel. Now, Wu Caiyun told Qin Lang that this thing had another use, which was a symbol of the guardian's status. He had somehow become Dragon Snake's guardian.
"Can't you all just tell me all of this thing's uses in one go?" Qin Lang gave Wu Caiyun a bitter smile.
Wu Caiyun couldn't help but laugh. "It might have other uses, but we can only wait for you to discover them. However, you have to remember that you now have another identity -- Dragon Snake's guardian, which is equivalent to Dragon Snake's chief of staff. "
"I became a chief of staff just like that?" Qin Lang couldn't help but be stunned. "From what I know, military officers need to be promoted according to regulations, right? My military rank is nothing more than a second lieutenant. "
"Our Dragon Snake is different from other troops." Dai Ding explained. "Dragon Snake is an independent troop. Even though we are also part of the military, we don't receive any interference from the military in terms of personnel. It is because Dragon Snake is a completely independent troop, to the extent where even our funding channels are independent."
"What? Are you saying that the entire army is self-funded? " Qin Lang looked at Dai Ding in shock. He had never heard Marquis Wuming mention this before. Qin Lang always thought that Dragon Snake was the army the country allocated the most funds to.
"Dragon Snake Troop's objective is to protect the great land of Hua Xia and the interests of the descendants of Yan Huang. Everything is for the benefit of the nation and nation. The only way to be free from outside interference and influence was to remain independent. Only then would one not be controlled by others. Master doesn't wish for Dragon Snake Troop to become the vassal of a certain person or a certain interest group, and even more so doesn't want Dragon Snake Troop to become the executioner to suppress and deal with Hua Xia Nation's own people. If we want to achieve these things, we can only maintain independence — complete independence in terms of personnel and economy! "Dai Ding said.
"I see. So, Eldest Senior Brother, you've been fishing on the sea every day just to provide funds for the establishment of the army?" Qin Lang made a joke.
"Haha! However, to be honest, I really was a fisherman before, just that I didn't fish on the sea, but rather on the Yellow River. My family has always been river bandits. Later on, when it reached my father's generation, being a river bandit wasn't popular anymore, so I switched to fishing. Master saw that my fishing skills were formidable, and after eating a few Yellow River carps, he took me in as his disciple. "Dai Ding was an extremely interesting fisherman. Even though he looked just like a middle-aged fisherman, Qin Lang knew that he was an extremely formidable figure.
To be able to steadily move a small fishing boat from the river into the sea, just this ability alone was already enough to leave Qin Lang in admiration.
Since Dragon Snake Troop's source of funding was' self-funding ', then it naturally wouldn't receive interference from the military. Moreover, Marquis Wuming and Dragon Snake Troop always placed the nation and nation's interests first, so no one dared touch him or Dragon Snake Troop.
Only, now that Marquis Wuming had already temporarily left, the situation might change.
"Great Miss Wu, in the future, you will be the leader of Dragon Snake Troop." Qin Lang suddenly said to Wu Caiyun with a rare serious tone.
"What?" Wu Caiyun said. "This matter —"
"There isn't much to discuss about this matter." Qin Lang said. "Since even Boss Wu has said this, and since I am now the protector of Dragon Snake Troop, I seriously suggest that you accept this reality."
"You want me to be the leader of Dragon Snake Troop? Do I look like that? "Wu Caiyun said in self-mockery." Father's arrangement seems a bit too childish, right? "
"Then why did your father make me the protector of Dragon Snake Troop? Isn't that just like a nanny?"
When he said this, Qin Lang didn't laugh, instead continuing with a serious tone, "Sir Wu definitely made you lead Dragon Snake Troop after careful consideration. First of all, once you become the leader, regardless of whether it is your eldest senior brother, second senior brother, other senior brothers, or even your father's old subordinates, out of respect for Sir Wu, everyone will support you. On the other hand, if someone else sits in the leader's position, can you guarantee that they will all respect this new leader? This will inevitably lead to a great battle. Also, since Dragon Snake Troop is an independent army, it naturally cannot be interfered with by the outside world. This time, Dragon Nest Base was attacked precisely because of the interference of outside powers. That is why the more it is like this, the more important it is to stabilize the greater situation. The army cannot go a single day without a commander. Since Boss Wu has chosen you as his successor, then you shouldn't make excuses. If you continue to make excuses, then this young master can't be bothered to be the chief of staff. Motherf * cker, only today did I understand that the word 'staff' really has a lot of meaning! "
The things that happened during this trip to the Southern Sea truly exceeded Qin Lang's expectations. Just like that, he became Wu Caiyun's' nanny '. If it was before, Qin Lang would have been extremely displeased, but after everything he saw and heard today, he finally understood the meaning behind Dragon Snake Troop's existence. Hua Xia's nation and country needed a troop like Dragon Snake that moved in the dark, an army that dared to confront foreign enemies and foreign powers.
Peace was never something that could be exchanged for through negotiations and ceding territory. Peace could only be established on the basis of powerful military force.
A nation, a nation's prosperity, not only did they need to have a full stomach, they also needed their fists to have power. When faced with the secret provocations of foreign powers, there would always be someone who would resist and get revenge. Otherwise, the authority of Hua Xia's nation would become weaker and weaker, and they would be in a more and more passive state.
At this moment, on this small island in Dragon Nest Base, Qin Lang finally understood the true meaning behind Marquis Wuming establishing Dragon Snake Troop back then, and he also developed a deep sense of respect towards Marquis Wuming. This was the only person apart from the old poison thing that Qin Lang truly respected this much.
An inch of mountains and rivers, an inch of blood.
In this selfish society where money reigned supreme, there were already very few people who understood this reasoning. Many people were busy oppressing their own countrymen, busy emptying Hua Xia's resources, yet they didn't know just how many people were bleeding for this nation, for this land, vowing to defend their nation's dignity to the death.
"Everything is for the interests of the nation and country!"
When Wu Caiyun entered Dragon Nest Base with the identity of Dragon Snake Troop's leader, these were the first words she spoke.
