Wu De's other task is to prevent escape. Once he starts working outside, someone will probably try to escape. He must completely prevent such a thing from happening. A successful escape will give other people similar hope.
Therefore, before starting to go out to work, he requested from the Executive Committee that the military team members assigned to him to guard the prisoners must be special shooters, preferably equipped with sights and night vision goggles.
"What do you want someone so strong to do?" He Ming felt a little strange.
"When you find someone escaping, you can kill them with one strike." Wu De explained that the more decisive and ruthless the stop is, the more effective it will be. When the fear level is enough, there is no need to guard.
Then, he dispersed those who said they were willing to join the gang and assigned them to various labor teams, telling anyone who talked about escaping to report directly to him.
He does not promise anything to these people and does not give them any benefits. If he wants to gain trust, he must show the courage to surrender himself.
Probably because that battle left such a strong impression on many people, or maybe because their lives before and now are not much different. Anyway, except for some people who reported that a few small landowners and rich peasants were complaining that no one came to redeem them, the farm work at home was
There is nothing unusual except that there is nothing you can do.
Because Fu Buer had an injury on his leg, he did not go to work as a laborer with the others. Instead, he rested in a tent with other wounded people. In addition to changing dressings every day, he also had to eat, and the food was not bad. Although the rice porridge was thin, it was enough.
Seeing several pirate men in white clothes going in and out every day to take care of their injuries, Fu Fuji admired him very much: He is a doctor after all, and his invisible fear is much less.
There were twenty or thirty injured prisoners. Some died without recovering from the operation, while others recovered quickly from their injuries and were sent to work in the labor team. Ma Peng, the long-term worker of Fu Buer,
It was just a sprain in his foot, so he was sent away quickly. In the past, this long-term worker would not even look at him, but now that he is gone, he feels nostalgic. Now, there is no acquaintance around him.
A few days later, Ma Peng found an opportunity to see him. He said that he was working for the pirates. He no longer called them pirates, but respectfully called them "chiefs."
It's very refreshing to get the lucky charm. Ma Peng now cuts trees and digs soil every day. He eats rice and porridge every day, and he can also eat salted fish for three days. He only works for six hours a day - he is forced to take a shower every day.
It's annoying, but he has gotten used to it. Generally speaking, life is pretty good. I heard that the pirates gave them white rice and fish, which surprised Fu Fuji: the long-term workers in his family have been eating sweet potatoes all year round.
He would only give rice and salted fish to eat when the farming was busy and he was working hard. Although it was not inconsistent with him at all, he still felt sad for the pirates' luxury.
Mapeng also said many incredible things, such as the machine that can move by itself and can make tens of thousands of bricks in a short time; there is also a thing that is covered in smoke and makes a rumbling roar, "chiefs"
They are not allowed to get close. It is said that it is the source of all power, which is to constantly add firewood. The firewood used in a day is more than a village uses for cooking. Others include pots and stoves mounted on four-wheeled vehicles and magical saws.
, you can cut down a big tree in one go...
He said it happily, and Fu Fuji was not too surprised when he heard it: he himself has seen many novel things these days. He has already been mentally prepared for the pirates' new gadgets.
"...The chief said that if you do a good job, you can be transferred to an employee if you are willing to stay."
"Employee? Isn't that just being a pirate?"
"It's not like being a pirate..." Ma Peng said in a low voice. "That's not enough for me to be called an employee. I don't know how to write it. Anyway, I just eat three meals a day, with meat every meal, and I can still do it every month."
Take a day off or something..." Ma Peng looked a little envious.
"Hey! Do you want to be a thief?" Fu Buer saw that his long-term worker was about to fall into the abyss of rebellion. He didn't care much about Ma Peng's life and death. He was just afraid that one of his laborers would be reduced, so he quickly reminded him that this was a rule.
Dangerous road.
"I don't dare. The master is right, it means beheading. But I heard that some people are willing. Besides, the county magistrates can't do anything with them at the moment. What can we, the common people, do?" Ma Peng did it for the pirates.
After ten days of work, he seemed to have become more flexible with his words, "It's all work anyway..."
"Ma Peng, you have such stupid thoughts!" Fu Buer reprimanded, "As soon as the imperial soldiers arrive, they will be reduced to ashes! If you depend on the pirates, you will even be labeled as a thief!"
Ma Peng opened his mouth, probably not knowing what to say.
Fu Buer took the opportunity to ask if there was any news at home. Mapeng said that he had been working and had not seen anyone coming from the village. Moreover, there were many large places where pirates were working now, and he was often driven here to do a few things.
I have been working there for a few days, but I almost lost track of the place. Fu Buer was very anxious, thinking that even if he wanted to demand a ransom, he would still have to send someone to negotiate. Why didn't the pirates even make a sound?
Ma Peng left quickly because he still had work to do. Fu Buer's injuries on his legs were almost healed and he could walk around. Forgetting, he didn't dare to go out, for fear that the pirates would kill him if they saw him running away.
Now that he saw that the horse tent could enter and exit freely, he used a stick as a crutch and walked around the tent. The tent was surrounded by barbed wire. When he saw this thing, he shivered. During the battle that day, bloody corpses were hung on the barbed wire.
The scene was so horrific that he could never forget it.
There is a wooden tower outside the barbed wire fence. Below it stands a bored little pirate, carrying a blunderbuss with a dagger on his back. I have seen the power of this thing before. It is as dense as rain when the shots are fired.
With such a powerful weapon, even the government and army would be in trouble, let alone a militia like them. However, Fu Fuji also knew that it was a dream to expect the government and army to rescue them. The Ming government and the army were too lazy to pay attention.
If they really wanted to suppress the bandits, they, the common people, would be the first to behead them and take advantage of the reward. When he went to Guangzhou, he had heard of such things.
"Guest troops are like bandits."
Suddenly there was a strange roar in the air, like the sound of firecrackers exploding. Then there was a rumbling roar, and when the sound was heard, a red steel monster was roaring, spewing out dirty black smoke, and it was incredible.
The power gnawed at the ground, and the scene in front of him had never been seen even in the most terrifying nightmares. Fu Fuji's face turned pale and he almost fell down.
Seeing the creaking of the iron plate, this huge thing moved slowly, and then with a roar, a huge shovel was lifted up from the soil. The soil and gravel were scattered around like a waterfall, and everything seemed
So thrilling,
Fu Buer was so surprised that he couldn't speak. How could he resist such a power? Not to mention the more than a thousand officers and soldiers of Qiongzhou Prefecture, even if they mobilized people and horses from several provinces to suppress it, what could they do? They have such great power.
What is the purpose of building a large-scale construction here if it is not for long-term living?
Thinking of this, his mind became very confused, and he couldn't tell whether it was a blessing or a curse. He squatted on the ground for a while, at a loss.
Wu De took the latest issue of "Ideological Trends of Prisoners" to report to the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee had high expectations for this group of prisoners and wanted to use them as seeds for future political power construction, so it required that these people's ideological status be monitored every Monday
Reports are made so that corresponding policy adjustments can be made.
The Executive Committee Building - although it is actually a simple building, everyone still habitually calls it an office building to show its grandeur - has now completely changed. The barbed wire fences on all sides have been demolished and a tall building has been built.
A guard was set up in front of the fence and the wooden double-open gate, and two rows of bungalows were built on both wings of the office building. Since there were plasterers among the prisoners, it was not a problem to build a few old-fashioned brick and wood frame tile houses. The floor of the compound was completely paved.
It has blue bricks and two flower beds on the left and right. There is a Beijing 212 parked in the yard, and there are also a few motorcycles and bicycles. At first glance, it looks like the chairman of the county committee of a certain county in the 1960s and 1970s.
hospital.
Wu De did not enter the building, but went directly into a tile-roofed room on the east side. The black lettering sign on a white background in front of the door said "Publishing and Printing Room" in neat artistic calligraphy. This is where the executive committee edits and prints documents and various internal
Publications place.
This kind of internal publication has been edited since the Executive Committee moved it to Bairentan. Although Ding Ding clamored to publish Lingao Times, the Executive Committee has always rejected his request on the grounds that the time was not enough, and instead put him in charge.
Develop internal publications. These internal publications range from those circulated by all time travelers to those restricted to the Executive Committee. "Prisoners' Ideological Trends" is a material that is restricted to the Executive Committee and the Theory and Policy Group, and only five copies are printed per issue.
The copy and printing room is dark, because to save electricity, no lights are turned on unless needed for work. The room is very large, with a fast mimeograph machine inside, and a large table taken from the ship with wax paper, steel plates and stylus pens spread out on it.
In the corner are two computers and several Epson 24-pin printers. Boxes of white paper and printed documents are piled in the corner.
There was no one in the room, so Wu De picked up a piece of paper on the table. It looked like a tabloid. On the front page were two crooked big calligraphy characters written in tadpole script. Looking carefully, it turned out to be:
"Lingao News", there is also a signature below: Xi Yazhou.
Xi Yazhou's head seemed to be healed, and he had written an inscription for the publication. Wu De read it and found that the newspaper reported the victory of the "First Counter-Encirclement and Suppression" in a large area, and exaggeratedly reported that the local government dispatched an army of 3,000 people.
, but under the attack of the divine power of our heavenly army, they were all wiped out in just half an hour. Although the signature was from a military commentator of this newspaper, the style of writing, which was similar to the description of a war chess game, was obviously written by someone who was unfortunately injured on D-Day.
Xi Asia's hand.
Then there was an editorial signed: Special commentator of this newspaper. He commented: The reactionary Ming Dynasty government will be completely wiped out by our wise and great Crossing Party.
The last is a theoretical article introducing Marxism. Of course, this Mr. Ma became a hermit who was born in the Wanli period. It is signed by Du Wen. However, although this article is very long and lists many figures, Wu De always
I didn’t understand what it was written about. I guess even Marx himself didn’t know it after reading it.
On the back of the newspaper was another article, "The Blood and Tears of the Lingao Farmers", which described the tragic experiences of many farmers. Wu De thought it looked familiar - wasn't this the "Interrogation of Prisoners" copied to him by Xiao Guo after interrogating the prisoners?
Are they excerpted from "Memories"? It's really a large copy of the world's articles, and a lot of content has been added to it. Its imagination is simply outrageous. The author consciously did not sign his name.
