However, no matter how much these makeshift musketeers complained behind their backs, it could not affect the joyful mood of the workers at all at this moment. They had no time to pay attention to their fellow musketeers with mocking faces and just waved their hands. The axes on the top were roaring loudly, and it was not until Fan Huzi and Zheng Nansheng, who were in charge of managing them, rushed over with bamboo whips on their faces, that these over-excited guys returned to their posts in anger and continued their promising logging work. .

And the reason why they are so obedient and obedient is not without reason! Team Officer Fan Huzi and Sentinel Commander Zheng Nansheng have fully realized the power of these two Lao Qiu Ba from the moment they came to this world. They are fierce, stern, domineering, arrogant and unkind. No one likes to be targeted by these two, especially These two bastards also control everything about all the new immigrants. They have the final say on eating, working, training, and even pooping and peeing. God knows what will happen if they offend them! Many people will never forget what happened to Fan Huzi, Zheng Nansheng and others when a few green-skinned bastards in the fifth or sixth batch of new immigrants used their strength to offend Fan Huzi, Zheng Nansheng and others. Those bastards were severely beaten. Not to mention, he was hung on the mast and swung on a swing for two days. In the end, he almost died of dehydration... And since he started this job, no one dared to question the authority of the officers. After all, no one wanted to After being beaten wildly and having to hang on a swing on the mast with an hungry stomach, the feeling is, tsk tsk, according to the people involved, the few Qingpi who were exiled to the prisoner team to do hard work, it is simply unbearable and painful to the extreme. I believe it. No sane person would want to try. Therefore, after seeing the Qiu Ba duo coming over with bamboo whips and unkind expressions, these workers immediately transformed into good children and went to work honestly.

"Damn, these bastards are very alert. They will run away when they see us coming. Otherwise, we must give them a meal of fried meat with bamboo shoots!"

"You're right, Mr. Captain. If this were the case in our former army, we would have to beat them to pieces. If you dare to delay the work, hum! Hey, you guys, yes, you bastards, who let you If you stop, hurry up and move for me, because you want to eat the stick!" Without stopping the thieving workers, Fan Huzi and Zheng Nansheng stood around the outskirts of the logging factory with sticks in their hands behind their backs. Looking around, soon, someone replaced the lazy laborers and became their new target. Among the prisoners responsible for transporting the logs, there were a few thin guys who were not full enough to eat, resulting in severe physical exhaustion. During the process of transporting logs, they actually Suddenly fell down, and when the supervisors went up to check with spears and bamboo whips, the other prisoners made a noise together, trying to take this opportunity to negotiate terms with Chiyang, so that the supervisors could improve their food standards and increase their Break time! This was obviously not allowed, so Fan Huzi and Zheng Nansheng hurriedly left the workers behind, roared and drew out the Yanling knives from their waists, and rushed towards the place where the commotion occurred.

"Come, bring out all the people who participated in the commotion, give them twenty lashes, and then send them to the beach to build a temporary trestle. If we don't work for five hours today, no one will be able to rest. In addition, in view of the uncooperation of the prisoners, We will save you today's dinner. If anyone dares to disobey the supervisor's management and want to bargain with us in the future, they will be convicted of riot..." The tiger came out of the gate. This word is really used to describe the speed of the Chiyang infantry. It was perfect. The heavily armed supervisors under the command of Fan and Zheng quickly suppressed this small commotion. The prisoners who wanted to negotiate terms with Chiyang were quickly isolated by the guards. Obviously, they were going to endure hardships next. Except for them, the rest of the people also put down what they were doing under the orders of the supervisors and gathered around to watch the upcoming execution process. Chiyang officers such as Fan Huzi and Zheng Nansheng wanted to use this method to show their authority and authority to all the prisoners. Determined, any guy who disobeys the management will be severely punished by them, even if these people were the most unruly pirates.

"Everyone, please work harder and move these logs to the beach quickly. The brothers over there may be waiting impatiently. You know, the old men in Chiyang have said that as long as we complete the work at hand on time, they will let us We went to the boat to rest in advance. It was a real rest. We were not sent to clean the deck. Moreover, there was also a sumptuous dinner for us to enjoy. There was even wine in it. Of course, the amount could not be a lot, but it was still enough. Let's each drink a small bowl to relieve our fatigue..." Of course, not everyone chose not to cooperate. At least, the Taiping Gang, who were responsible for logging and building the temporary trestle, were very sensible. They didn't even need Chiyang to send supervisors. Management, you can happily work non-stop. After all, they are not professional pirates like the fierce sharks who lick blood with their blades (although sometimes, when conditions permit, these seafarers will also serve as temporary pirates, but in the final analysis, they are still engaged in sea trade) Businessmen) who know nothing but murder and robbery. They did everything before becoming sailors. Hard work is a piece of cake for them. In addition, the top management of Chiyang has made a promise to them. before, so in order to get more rest time and better meals, they had to work harder.

"Everyone works hard and drags the wood into the water. Don't just sit there. Come here and help us fix the wooden pillar. Hey, what about you? I want you to swing a hammer. No, what else can you do, you are really a bunch of idiots, the fat ducks we raise on the boat are smarter than you..."

Shaihuo Island Beach.

With the logging axes flying in the workers' hands, the fallen trees were simply repaired, and then they were put on ropes by the transportation crew (composed of half of the new immigrants from Chiyang and half of the better-performing vicious shark pirates) and pulled hard. Arriving on the beach, dozens of slightly thin and embarrassed men shouted neat chants and worked hard together, quickly erecting the wood soaked in sea water. The workers waiting aside saw that the time was almost up, Immediately, under the command of the supervisor, he swung the heavy wooden hammer in his hand and hammered hard on the sharpened wooden pile at the bottom, so that it was firmly fixed in the soft shallow sea sand layer. In this way, the pillars needed for the trestle were obtained, and the next thing the workers had to do was to lay spokes and planks to completely complete the temporary trestle.

"Take them to the shore to pick and crush stones. Since they think their work is heavy, then we must fully respect it and find them some easier work. Salivan, take your people to see Watch them, if anyone dares to make any noise again, I allow you to kill them on the spot without notification!" Then he turned his attention back to the lumberyard down the hill. Four or five of the pirate prisoners who had caused the most ferocious trouble were now Having finished their punishment, the overseers were freed from the wooden frame. What awaits them next will be heavier work. The overseers, who have been holding back their anger and cannot vent their anger, will not let them have another chance to provoke and cause trouble! At the same time, Kang Lin, who landed in a rowing boat, also learned the ins and outs of the whole incident when he visited Liu Laoliu. Therefore, as soon as he set foot on the construction site, he ordered all the prisoners who dared to negotiate terms with him to be killed. They all took him to the beach to smash rocks. He didn't believe that anyone could still have the strength to do anything after smashing rocks for a day. If so, what awaited him would not be a heavy hammer but a black hole. muzzle and hot lead bullets.

"In addition, transfer the prisoners who were originally responsible for breaking rocks to take over their work! Remember, no matter what method you use, I want you to clear enough open space to build a temporary residence before it gets completely dark..."

"Okay, leader, in each outpost, apart from leaving the necessary guards, A will devote all the others to logging and leveling the land. In addition, send someone to notify the outpost team and ask them to seize the time to explore the entire island. Come back later to help!" After quietly listening to leader Kang Lin's order, Yan Si and Fan Huzi, who were actually in charge of commanding the camp, immediately pulled out the sabers around their waists and looked around, who were still busy guarding the prisoners and carrying them from the rowing boat. The material subordinates issued a gathering order. They must concentrate all their manpower on the construction of the project and complete the construction instructions issued by the leader as quickly as possible.

Three hours later.

With the participation of a large number of manpower, the construction speed of the camp suddenly accelerated. Therefore, when the women in the logistics team came to the construction site carrying large wooden barrels filled with brown rice porridge and lighting improvised torches, , a site that is open enough to accommodate everyone has been smoothly leveled by laborers and prisoners. Although there are still dug out tree roots and random stones, it is no longer a problem to build simple tents on it. Therefore, Under the loud command of the officers, the laborers who had had a good dinner continued to work hard at night. With the burning fire lighting, the temporary camp that could accommodate nearly half of the people to rest finally landed on the sixth day of the Chiyang Fleet on Shaihuo Island. Successfully built in an hour! In the meantime, Fan Huzi, who had his hands free, even led a dozen slightly stronger women to build a three- to four-meter-high sentry tower using the wood cut down in the afternoon. A wooden sentry tower that could accommodate two sentries at the same time to stand guard! With this, Chiyang's sentinels can climb up and overlook the entire camp. Coupled with the monocular, the soldiers on duty can even take care of the sailboats moored in the small bay. After all, Kang Lin, Liu Laoliu, and Yan Si , Fan Huzi's gang got their start by stealing ships by sneak attacks, and they didn't want to be attacked like this by others in the future.
