My Endless Life.

Chapter 4 A little lesson

Brett is a young man who looks to be in his late thirties.

He had some fine stubble on his face and his hair was naturally curly, making him look like a weathered middle-aged man.

After stopping Li Qi's actions, Brett quickly stepped forward and checked several of his team members. After confirming that they were fine, he stood up and angrily said to Li Qi:

"Sergeant Li Qi! What were you doing just now?! What do you want to do?! Are you going to kill the outstanding soldiers of the Principality here?!"

"excellent?"

Li Qi sheathed his knife, expressionless:
"I don't think anyone who beats up a colleague over a woman can be called 'excellent'.

"And Sergeant Brett, you seem to have misunderstood. I didn't mean to kill him."

This is the truth. If Li Qi really wanted to kill this soldier, his knife would not have stopped.

Brett said angrily:

"Then you can't attack my team members!"

"Hmm? Sergeant Brett, you seem to have made a mistake. You seem to be the first ones to take action."

Li Qi raised his head and looked at Brett:

"Or is it that only your team members can hit my team members, but I can't fight back against your team members...Sergeant Brett, you don't really think so?"

Li Qi's words were as calm as ever.

Although in this world that is somewhat like the 19th century and somewhat like the Middle Ages, military discipline is very loose and most of the rules are not yet formed.

However, the prohibition of fighting within the army still exists.

It was reasonable for Brett's team to attack Li Qi's team first and for Li Qi, as their leader, to teach them a lesson.

So even if Brett was really angry, he couldn't do anything.

Seeing Li Qi's righteous look, Brett was so angry that he was shaking all over. He stared at the boy in front of him and couldn't say a word for a long time.

"Take care of your team members." Li Qi's eyes swept across his face calmly, then turned and walked towards the tent.

But just as Li Qi turned around, the unlucky guy who was knocked to the ground by Li Qi just now got up from the ground.

His face was ferocious, his eyes were red, and he looked at Li Qi with hatred.

"Smelly brat!!!"

Maybe he is a new recruit, or maybe he is a newcomer just transferred from a brigade.

In short, this person didn't seem to know Li Qi, nor did he know Li Qi's name.

All he knew was that he was beaten up by a kid who looked even taller than his chest, and was stepped on to the ground by the other party, without any dignity at all.

So he wanted to take revenge and teach this little devil a lesson!
The sturdy man, over 1.8 meters tall, rushed towards Li Qi like a mountain bear.

But when he saw him getting up to attack Li Qi, the most anxious person was his captain Brett.

"stop!!!"

Brett shouted to the soldier.

Unfortunately, this soldier is not like Li Qi who would stop when told to.

He continued to move closer to Li Qi, his palm about to reach Li Qi's back.

Getting closer, getting closer!
The soldier's grin almost reached his ears, but the next moment, his smile completely froze on his face.

The dagger was unsheathed at some point, and Li Qi dodged the soldier's attack at a very subtle distance.

Then Li Qi kicked the soldier's calf hard.

The crisp sound of bones breaking made the soldiers wail in pain:
"Ahhhhh!!!!"

But this is not the end. Li Qi, who had missed the opportunity, swung the sharp blade in his hand, slashing it across the soldier's hands, then came to the soldier's back and kicked him hard.

boom!
The soldier's body fell forward.

He subconsciously tried to support himself with his hands, but as soon as his hands touched the ground, they were separated from his wrists, and a large amount of blood gushed out from his wrists.

“Ahhhhhh!!! My hand!! My hand!!!”

The wails of pain were chilling.

Brett's eyes almost popped out of their sockets when he saw this. He quickly walked up to the soldier, picked up his severed hand, and at the same time controlled the blood that was constantly gushing out of the soldier's wrist.

"Li Qi!! You're going too far!!!"

Then Brett yelled at Li Qi.

Li Qi slowly took out a towel to wipe the blood off the knife, and whispered to Brett:
“He assaulted his colleagues and his superiors. According to the rules, I can kill him. Now I am only cutting off his hands, which is already very merciful.

"In order to take care of him and help him recover his fighting strength as quickly as possible, I used my knife very quickly and the incision was very neat. If I use healing magic, he should be able to recover in two days."

Li Qi said, sheathing the knife and walking to Brett:
"Sergeant Brett, if you don't want your soldiers to get hurt, then please keep them under control in the future."

After talking to Brett, Li Qicai turned and left.

Looking at Li Qi's back, Brett's face was uncertain.

"I'll tell the captain about this!" "Whatever."

Li Qi waved his hand indifferently, then ignored Brett and walked to his men.

Genero and Rick were standing side by side, and when they saw Li Qi approaching, they both swallowed at the same time.

After hesitating for a while, Rick gritted his teeth and stood up and said:
"Captain, this matter..."

boom! !

Before Rick could finish his words, Li Qi hit Rick hard with the scabbard.

The blow was very heavy and sent him flying. Judging from the sound he made, at least two of his ribs were broken.

Rick's body rolled twice on the ground before stopping.

After the other party struggled to get up from the ground, Li Qi said:

"Stand for three hours as punishment, and then go to the infirmary to heal your injuries."

"understand!"

Rick managed to stand up straight and responded while holding back the pain.

Li Qi turned his gaze to Genero again:

"You too."

"…Yes."

Genero lowered his head and stood with Rick.

Li Qi didn't say why he hit Rick, and the two didn't ask.

Because this wasn't a problem in the first place.

It would have been fine if he had just gone to the infirmary to tease the little girl, but he also started a fight with her, and the fight lasted for a long time and there was still a stalemate with no winner.

Li Qi saw this embarrassing thing, but he was only hit by the knife and had a few broken ribs, which was considered a good thing.

The team leader was really angry. They might have to go to the battlefield with injuries tomorrow.

That’s when it will be really fatal!
The farce was settled just like that. Li Qi didn't look at his two men. He turned back to the tent and lay down again.

The military discipline of the Principality of Uno is not as strict as imagined.

And here the principle of strength first is also upheld.

As long as you are strong enough, you are qualified to do anything.

That's why Li Qi had no hesitation in teaching Brett's men a lesson and decisively cut off the hands of the soldier who wanted to attack him.

Maybe Rick was indeed wrong in this matter.

But whether he is right or not is not important to Li Qi at all.

The important thing is that Rick is Li Qi's team member, and it is natural for him to stand up for his teammates.

But having said that, Rick still needs to be taught a lesson.

With this extra energy, instead of improving your own strength and increasing your survival rate on the battlefield, you use it to tease little girls?

If it wasn't wartime now, Li Qi would definitely give them a good training.

Practice to death!
Anyway, there is healing magic in this world. As long as the injury is not serious, the injury during normal training, even broken limbs, can be healed by healing magic.

It was for this reason that Li Qi dared to cut off the hands of the new recruit from Brett's team.

The incision was neat and the cross-section was smooth. There was no need for a tactical-level medic to help. Any first or second-level medic could have reattached his hand.

At most, you just can't use your hands too vigorously for a few days.

Li Qi felt that his punishment was not severe.

Of course, he didn't intend to use too much force.

Otherwise, you will be seen as a "cruel" person in the eyes of others, which will be detrimental to your subsequent promotion.

And then again, judging by the character of this new soldier, if the war continues, he probably won't survive long.

The ones who die the fastest on the battlefield are these young and inexperienced people who get easily carried away.

He likes to charge forward even though he has no ability.

"Alas... When will the war end..."

Lying on the straw mat, Li Qi stared at the tent with his eyes open, muttering to himself.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Li Qi appears to be so strict and fierce in the eyes of others.

But in fact, Li Qi now just wants to end the war as soon as possible, or transfer to the rear as soon as possible to study magic.

Compared to fighting, the magic system of this world is more interesting.
