The British prisoners felt that their brain capacity was running out of capacity. The latest chapter of Infinite Bloody Evolution.
When Mohot heard the shouting, he raised his head in confusion and rolled his cloudy eyes. Only then did he realize that Steve and others were in the same military uniform as him.
Liu Zhenming was not unreasonable. When he saw the two groups meeting, he kindly waved his hand and ordered a rest to let the British prisoners catch up with each other.
"Who are you?" Mohot staggered over step by step.
"We are here to rescue you. We just came from the Boer battlefield. Then," Logan hurriedly stepped forward to help Mohot and helped him sit down on a stone.
"Save me, I thought the British Empire had forgotten me." Mohot said mockingly, then looked at Steve and Logan, and then asked after a long time: "You were also captured?
"
Logan swallowed unwillingly and replied with difficulty: "Yes, we were defeated. The soldiers of the two brigades kept fighting with the Chinese army along the way, and they were defeated in the end. But this time there were a total of four of us.
Brigade, others will definitely save us."
"It will definitely happen. It's Major General Douglas who is commanding the battle." Steve emphasized in particular. After all, Douglas shined brilliantly on the Boer battlefield. He was young and promising, with real talent and learning. He was not like a bastard like Mohot.
Waiting for death is comparable to that of a major general who was transferred to a remote place like the Atlantic Fleet.
Steve looked at Mohot sternly again and said sadly: "Sir, have you forgotten the glory of being a major general of the British Empire? How can they let you mine? How can you accept it?"
Mohot lowered his head and choked up: "It's the Chinese Liu who said that we only waste food. Therefore, we are required to use labor in exchange for daily food. If we don't work, we will all starve to death."
"Damn it. He will go to hell one day." Steve cursed lightly. After hearing this, Mohot's expression changed drastically.
A British prisoner next to him who had returned from mining immediately jumped up. He raised his hands and shouted: "Report, report!"
A black man holding a whip slowly stepped forward and asked, "What's going on?"
"Him!" The British prisoner pointed at Steve and said loudly: "I just heard him cursing the great General Liu. He said that the great General Liu will go to hell."
"Bold!" Several black men couldn't help but stepped forward. Regardless of Steve's struggle, they pressed him down and gave him five whips.
The surrounding Chinese soldiers raised their guns, and the other British prisoners were shocked speechless by this sudden turn of events. By the time they reacted, the black man had already finished his execution.
The black man hooked his fingers, and the British prisoner who had tipped off the news immediately ran up and begged for a living. Read it in full.
"Well done. You have two days of rest. You can also have a meal of beef!" the black man said with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Excellency. Thank you very much, Your Excellency." The British prisoner rubbed his hands excitedly. It had been a long time since he had a full meal or a meal of meat.
Steve touched the wounds on his body and wanted to go forward and stab the British prisoner and the black man who had tipped off the news.
Fortunately, Logan kept holding his hand to prevent him from making any changes. Logan thought it was better to figure out the situation first.
"Major General Mohot, what happened? Why did those black people behave like this?" The three of them found a place a little further away and started talking softly.
Mohot sighed and said with a lonely look: "Don't blame the children. They only have a little bit of food every day and they don't have enough to eat at all. Therefore, in order to have a full meal, some people start to follow these instructions
Let’s fulfill the Chinese people’s demands.”
Mohot feels that his life in the past two months has been like living in hell. The Chinese have established a complete system of exchanging labor for food, but even if they work hard for a day, they can't exchange much.
Just don’t starve to death.
However, you can get a lot of food by doing other actions, such as someone cursing the Chinese leader, someone trying to escape, and someone being lazy at work.
As long as these are reported, the reporter will be generously rewarded, and those who violate the rules will be put to death in the worst case and whipped in the light case.
The people who carried out the punishment were all black people. These black people were a little scared at first and did not dare to take action. However, after two months of adaptation, they have turned into vicious overseers one by one. As long as the white slaves violated the law even slightly, they would catch them.
Seize the opportunity and get a whipping. Therefore, the hatred in the hearts of these British prisoners towards black people was much stronger than towards the Chinese.
As soon as Steve and Logan heard what Mohot said, there was no color on their faces. Is this how we are going to live from now on?
"The Chinese Liu was kind to us at first, but when he heard that 20,000 troops were coming from Africa to Canada, he began to hand us over to these black people, and began to make us hungry and tired every day
." Mohot looked at Steve and others with a hint of blame in his eyes, as if he was blaming them for not coming to Canada.
Steve and Logan had nothing to say. The British government had never considered resolving the matter by peaceful means from beginning to end. The British government seemed to have forgotten the captured soldiers.
Steve and Logan were both firm supporters of resolving the matter with force before. It was only after they themselves were captured and saw the other prisoners who suffered inhuman torture that they hoped for an early and peaceful resolution.
this matter.
"On the road, on the road, get up!" After receiving the order, the black supervisor immediately shouted arrogantly. The British prisoners stood up quickly as if their buttocks were being burned, without any delay.
.
During the short break just now, the new prisoners had already inquired about various situations from the old prisoners, and all the British prisoners fell silent.
The army began to move forward slowly, but the atmosphere became extremely gloomy and the speed became much faster.
Liu Zhenming couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he saw some British prisoners secretly glancing at the black men who were pretending to be powerful with resentful eyes.
No matter how docile you black people are, no matter how docile you white people are, I will only let you have different treatment and make you hostile and hate each other. I believe that at least the black people and white people in Chinatown have completely hated each other, even to the point of incompatibility.
reached the point.
"Go to those British generals." Liu Zhenming ordered softly, and two soldiers quickly carried him to Mohot and others.
"Mohot! Long time no see, how have you been? I heard you want to see me?" Liu Zhenming tilted his head and looked at Mohot, who was driving the horse, and said hello with a smile.
"Liu, congratulations on your victory." As soon as Mohot finished speaking, he realized that he had said the wrong thing, especially when he saw the livid faces of Steve and Logan, he felt extremely ashamed.
After calming down a little, Mohot said hesitantly: "I think your labor-for-food system is unfair!"
"Oh, what do you have in mind?" Liu Zhenming crossed his hands and looked at the British major general with a half-smile.
"I just think it's a bit unfair to the weak. In fact, I can do some other work for you in exchange for food."
"for example?"
"For example, I can help you train soldiers and even give lessons to some officers. I think that I graduated from the Greenwich Naval Academy and received orthodox studies, which should be helpful to you."
"How do I know if you have fulfilled your duties or if you are just talking nonsense? And I don't think there is much worth learning from the people we defeated." Let the British officers and prisoners come to teach Ye Geyin and other Chinese generals.
Liu Zhenming actually agreed in his heart, but he still had to beat some of these British people.
Even though these British generals were highly dogmatic, some military theories were still very solid.
Mohot's eyes dimmed and he said bitterly: "Yes, there is nothing worth learning from the people you defeated."
When Liu Zhenming was about to lose hope, Liu Zhenming said with a smile: "Okay, I still admire the British Navy very much. I will give you three days to write a rough draft with other officers who want to do mental work."
Let me take a look at the theoretical basis of military training, combat, etc. first, and if you are qualified, we can talk about other things."
Mohot was indeed overjoyed, as if he had received a great gift, and said loudly: "I will not let you down." (To be continued...)
