Si Fangxing's men galloped into the dock on their fast horses, dismounted and reported to Si Fangxing: "General, Gao Dutou has brought people to the school grounds. Please go back to the camp with General Xiaoliang and give instructions."
It took only half a moment of pure effort to finish the battle, which was so efficient.
Si Fangxing said loudly: "I understand, we will return immediately!"
The group said goodbye to Liang Zao and immediately returned to Sifangxing's school grounds. Liang Chuan looked back at this magnificent shipyard. At this moment, he could believe that century-old projects such as the Great Wall of China and the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal and even the legendary Epang Palace could be created in the age of handicrafts without cranes or machinery. It was really not a dream.
It's a pity that the torrent of history has already determined its direction. Just like the stories in Tui and Bei Tu will still come true one by one. I am just a pebble in history and cannot stir up waves, let alone change its direction. In a thousand years Ah, if these crafts could continue to develop and not be lost in the torrent of history due to wars and dynasty changes, Liang Chuan could not imagine how great and advanced the Chinese nation could have contributed to the creation of world civilization at that moment.
The two of them returned to the school yard. In the middle of the school yard stood two rows of prisoners with timid expressions. The prisoners were wearing prison uniforms and their hair was disheveled. They looked extremely embarrassed. Liang Chuan could tell from their eyes that they were very scared. Expulsion into the army was a severe punishment. The road was no different from going through the gate of hell.
All the soldiers in the school field have tattoos on their faces. This is something Liang Chuan has never understood about the Song Dynasty. Who in the Song Dynasty can tattoo? These prisoners would have their faces tattooed after they were convicted by the court, and then sent to where they were supposed to go. The soldiers would also have their faces tattooed, and the civilians would call them thieves and serve in the army, so their status would be higher than these prisoners. A little bit. The difference is that one person has already been brought to court and has been tried, while these people in front of them are awaiting trial.
It is said that soldiers are the cutest people. There is only a lot of anger on these people's faces. How can there be any cuteness at all?
If those who defend the country are not respected, then they will never have the concept of defending the country in their hearts. They have no sense of national pride and no idea of dedicating themselves to the nation. On the contrary, they only have hatred in their hearts. When foreigners attack at the door of their home, When the war is over, can we still expect soldiers and generals to resist foreign aggression? That's a fool's dream. It's not unreasonable for the Song Dynasty to survive.
In the center of the school grounds, these big-headed soldiers surrounded the prisoners. They held guns and sticks in their hands and poked and prodded them from time to time. Some of them screamed at them. The prisoners knew they were fish on the chopping board, so they were afraid of being beaten and tortured. , even the smallest movement scared the shit out of them.
Gao Chun told the prisoners that they should row dragon boats. When they heard that they could go outside and paddle well, they could say good things to them, so that their lives in prison would be easier in the future. Everyone followed after they felt hopeful. Why was this suddenly brought to the barracks? Legend has it that when training soldiers in some barracks, the soldiers would select people to practice their skills after seeing blood. Could it be that they tricked him into killing them for fun?
Si Fangxing looked at this scene, his fiery eyes gradually turned into frosty coldness, and a nameless evil fire ignited in his heart. If the prisoners who had finally been summoned were frightened by these arrogant soldiers, he would still A bird dragon boat? These people who only know how to get paid are of little use and have no soldiers. They will not be asked to contribute. They are so enthusiastic about bullying these powerless prisoners. Is it true that they are trained to bully these weaklings?
"Take me and whip me!" Si Fangxing summoned his whip for the second time, and his men handed over the riding whip in horror. They looked at Si Fangxing's blue face and knew that he was really angry this time.
Si Fang walked into the crowd and shouted: "Everyone, stand still for me!"
When several veterans saw that Si Fangxing was robbing someone again, they knew something was wrong and wanted to run away. When they heard the order, they couldn't run away and could only stand there.
Si Fangxing rolled up his sleeves, raised his whip high and whipped everyone one by one. Those who were lucky enough to receive one whip could barely hold back, while those who were unlucky received a few more blows and were so painful that they shed tears. , screaming on the spot.
The big-headed soldier who looked like a gangster just now was like an old hen waiting to be slaughtered. Everyone was beaten up. Liang Chuan and Gao Chun looked on, not to mention trying to relieve their anger.
The prisoners looked at the general and thought they were going to be beaten, but they did not expect that the general would stand up for someone like themselves who was nothing. Si Fangxing's status suddenly became higher in their minds.
Gao Chun said: "My brother was able to suppress these soldiers when he was here. Lao Fang is used to being a good guy and has never fought hard against them. They thought Lao Fang didn't dare to control them."
Liang Chuan was so hungry that he felt dizzy. What these soldiers did was irritating, but naturally someone came to take care of them. Now he was more concerned about his stomach.
Si Fangxing beat everyone up and was still not relieved. He had been busy running around for a whole day. He didn't expect these subordinates to bring glory to him, but they still dared to watch the fun. He threw away the riding crop in his hand and said to everyone. : "There is nothing to eat tonight, go and train for me, practice thrusting five hundred times! Who dares to be lazy and receive fifty lashes from me!"
All the soldiers immediately picked up their wooden guns and were led by the corps commander. They ran to their positions in the school field and began to practice stabbing. Without the laughter and laughter just now, these big-headed soldiers who entered the practice state still looked a bit posturey.
The prisoners watched with fear, because these big-headed soldiers looked at them with extremely unfriendly eyes, and every thrust they made seemed to be stabbing them.
Si Fangxing scolded: "If you don't put roof tiles on your house for three days."
Gao Chun said to Liang Chuan: "I got twenty prisoners out of the prison. They all committed small crimes and were not heinous. I was afraid that there were not enough people, so I found two more for you in case you need them. Let's see now. How did you turn decay into magic?"
Liang Chuan said: "I'm hungry, and these prisoners are probably hungry too. Can we start eating first?"
The cook in the military camp brought the food over and cursed: "Damn it, this guy in the guard room has better food than me. What kind of evil has the general got? Just give these damn ghosts two buckets of porridge. That's enough." , but also fat chickens and ducks, and donkeys’ poor food.”
The prisoners couldn't believe their eyes. One moment they were worried about whether they would be beaten to death in the school grounds, but the next moment there was actually good meat and vegetables for them to eat. They almost couldn't remember what meat tasted like. Just know that the porridge with maggots can fill your belly.
This was what Liang Chuan ordered Si Fangxingjiao and other cooks to prepare for them. It would be ineffective to ask the prisoners to work hard not to feed them.
After a tiring day, Liang Chuan and Gao Chun Si Fangxing drank two cups of wine and sat down to eat. What they eat is naturally the best. If others have meat, they must not only have meat but also good meat. Si Fangxing saw that the people had gathered, and the dragon boat had begun to be built. Everything was ready. Maybe this time on the Sun River The dragon boat race can really bring you a bonus.
While eating, Liang Chuan suddenly asked: "I heard that someone hijacked a ship at our Qingyuan Port last time. How was the investigation? Was the ship recovered?"
This matter caused a lot of commotion in Qingyuan, and it could be said that everyone knew about it. No one was surprised that Liang Chuan asked about this topic.
Si Fangxing said: "What the hell are you going to check? Where can I go to check if this ship is blinded as soon as it leaves the port?"
Gao Chun said: "The hijacked ship belongs to those from the Dashi country. Many of them settled in Qingyuan. They went to Weiyuan Tower to make a fuss over this matter. They wanted us to investigate the matter thoroughly. They also threatened not to come back until the murderer was caught. Qingyuan is doing business. Mr. Huang scolded him in his face. They have been begging us to do business since ancient times. I have never heard of Song Dynasty being rare for him to come to our place. If you don't like it, get out of here."
Liang Chuan had seen Huang Shaoping's temper as a general judge, and it was really his style. Very few scholars could realize the importance of business to a country. Even Huang Shaoping, who had stayed in Qingyuan for so long, did not realize this.
I don’t know where the Liao envoy fled to in the end. Now the south wind has just begun to blow, and they can follow the wind back to the Liao Kingdom. It is estimated that Si Fangxing and the others also went out to sea to pursue them. They generally thought that these ships would escape to the Nanyang, because there were very few seagoing ships in the north, and the Liao people knew nothing about business. According to common sense, the ships would not go north.
The soldiers in the school yard were even more furious when they saw the prisoners being served with good food and meat. Their arms were sore and swollen after being stabbed hundreds of times. The key point was that by the time the meal arrived, their stomachs were empty, even worse than these pigs and dogs. The prisoners all had meat to eat, and they couldn't get angry anymore. The king of hell was watching them, urging them to do so.
After they had had enough wine and food, it was completely dark. A bonfire was burning in the school yard. The firelight made the school yard exceptionally bright. The big-headed soldiers continued to practice assassination. After eating, the prisoners began to feel uneasy again because someone I said, I'm afraid this isn't a deprivation meal.
The three words "decapitation meal" are too powerful. They had not eaten anything good in prison, but they were afraid that one day something good would be delivered to them, because this meal was "decapitation meal" and eating it would lead to death. human. Some people eat slowly. When they hear these three words, they can't eat anymore. They sit there and cry.
The words "deprived rice" made Liang Chuan almost want to write a suicide note, but luckily the danger was averted.
When Liang Chuan saw that there were still people crying, he immediately went over to watch the fun. After asking, he found out that they were worried that they would be beaten to death after eating this meal. Liang Chuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and shouted to everyone: "No one wants to harm you, just ate After dinner, please eat. When I ask you to work hard and you can't run, I will let Capt. Gao entertain you. But if you run well, I will go to Capt. Gao and tell you that even if you can't go out in the future, you will be threatened. You can live a better life in Yuanlou Prison than before."
The prisoners looked at Liang Chuan eagerly and murmured to each other: "Who are you? Why do you seem to have seen him before? Have you been in the cell?"
