Looking at the captains and logistics personnel who were not proportional to the number of slaves, seeing that they not only did not have any worried looks on their faces, but looked happy, Zhou Xiang knew that the other party must have something to rely on, otherwise where could he be so relaxed, he would have been trembling with fear for a long time.

After thinking about it, under the leadership of the team leader, he received a dry ration, a water bag, and a digging tool from the logistics personnel, and two more wheelbarrows with a combined capacity of about one cubic meter per unit.

Carrying these things to a plain area, I found countless slave soldiers, densely packed according to the formation of the brigade, divided into five huge columns gathered here.

The captain shouted to the slave soldiers gathered in front of him, "Listen, Lord Overseer himself has ordered five trenches to be dug here, five meters wide and seven meters deep, and twenty kilometers long!"

Our brigade was given the task of four or five hundred meters in this second trench, and each brigade was responsible for three meters. The place where I stood was the central point of our brigade. ”

Zhou Xiang and the others all opened their mouths, five people dug three meters, it sounds like very little, but don't forget, this is just the length, and the width is five meters, and it is seven meters deep!

I don't know how much soil was dug up, but it's a lot of work! It's impossible for these people to complete the task even if they dig half to death!

When these people were about to be in an uproar, the captain waved his hand and shouted, "Lord Overseer, I have promised you a reward for your hard work!" As long as the task is completed within three days, each team will be rewarded with ten meritorious deeds! ”

Hearing this, Zhou Xiang's slave soldiers all had red eyes and drooling, which means that everyone has two meritorious deeds, and they will immediately break away from slavery and become commoners! And according to the rule of one-tenth, Wu Chang automatically has one more meritorious service! That is, after the task is completed, you will become a subordinate immediately!

Seeing this hot scene, the captain deliberately poured cold water: "However, if it is completed in four days, there are only five meritorious deeds per unit, one meritorious service per regiment in five days, and no meritorious service in six days!" As for the ones that haven't been finished in six days...... Death for the whole army! ”

The latter sentence, the captain shouted with a gloomy face.

When everyone heard this, their hearts trembled, everyone understood that this was a military order, there was no point of bargaining, and if it was not completed in six days, it was really a whole army to cut off their heads!

Seeing everyone's faces turn snow-white, the captain smiled smugly and said as if deliberately playing with them, "Of course, Lord Overseer is fair and strict, and thinks that rewards and punishments should be just, so the rewards completed in one day are doubled!" Remember, double, that's twenty merits per unit! ”

The eyes of all the slaves are red again! Especially those captains are even more red and green!

When Zhou Xiang calculated that if he completed it in one day, in addition to the four points he rewarded, he also had two points for officers, and six points for meritorious service, so that he would immediately become a citizen who could become a citizen as long as he made one more meritorious service, and his eyes were also green, a civilian? Oh, my God! I can actually jump six levels to become an upper-level civilian! Just complete the task in one day? Pie in the sky?

Originally, civilians have no class, but who said that civilians need three meritorious services to become a superior citizen, so naturally those who have just been promoted and have not yet established meritorious service are called lower-level civilians, those who have established one meritorious service are called middle-level civilians, and those who have established two meritorious services are upper-level civilians, as for those who have three meritorious services? Please, that's the people.

Of course, this kind of title is not officially recognized, and the official believes that civilians are civilians, and those civilian ranks are spontaneously formed by the people, but considering the habits of the people, the official just ignores it and goes with the flow.

Originally, Zhou Xiang's eyes flashed and he was already obsessed, but the skinny dog baby muttered: "Oh my God, five meters wide, seven meters deep, and three meters long, that is, fifteen square soil!" These two bucket trucks have to go back and forth for at least more than 200 turns, how can it be completed in one day! And if there is a big rock hidden in the mud underneath, the five of us alone will not be able to finish it in more than ten days! That's a dead end! ”

Hearing this, the excited Zhou Xiang felt as if he was poured on his head by a basin of cold water, and his whole body became cold.

The captain didn't bother to care what he thought below, so he directly distributed the paragraph to the captains, and then said: "I hope you will work hard!" "And slipped. The departure of the captain was an order, and whether the slaves wanted to or not, they all worked hard under the leadership of the captain.

As the dog said, there were so many slaves present, and none of them could complete the work of digging and carrying fifteen square meters of soil in one day, because no one could do it without stopping digging and transporting soil. The slave soldiers, who knew that they were hopeless, finally stopped their desperate efforts and began to consciously conserve their physical strength.

And there are not a few unlucky teams that encountered big stones not long after they were excavated, but fortunately, Zhao Hujun was not unreasonable, and quickly dispatched a large number of strong men to get these big stones away, of course, these teams don't want to think about any rewards, they were lucky if they didn't cut off their heads according to the military order.

The treatment of working for the army is good, and Zhou Xiang, a slave soldier, enjoyed meat dishes that he had not seen for many years after a hard day. A large bowl of fragrant potato beef stew made all the slaves want to swallow their tongues.

With the hard work of hundreds of thousands of slaves, in just one day's work, five trenches of twenty kilometers long and a little basic in depth and width appeared on this land. And on the third day, the last day of the ten-meritorious reward period, all the slaves burst out with the most violent motivation, so to speak, whether to drink porridge or eat meat depends on the workload of the day!

Just when Zhou Xiang was working hard with the four of them, the captain, who could only be seen during dinner, suddenly appeared, and then grabbed Zhou Xiang's tools and got busy.

Zhou Xiang's team and the surrounding team were stunned, and his captain changed his character? They didn't think that it was right for the captain to work like himself, and the captain was very moved by the slaves when he ate with them, where did they dare to ask the captain to participate in the work, but how did the captain do it himself today? The sun is coming out in the west?

The captain didn't bother to pay attention to Zhou Xiang and them, and quickly filled the bucket truck, of course, he immediately sweated, and when he saw that he didn't wipe the sweat, he immediately pushed it away, Zhou Xiang was not an eyeless person, and immediately came over to help, but he was kicked by the unappreciative captain.

Zhou Xiang, who didn't know what was going on, had to take the dog baby and push another bucket car to follow closely beside the captain. Originally, the captain glared at Zhou Xiang fiercely, but after seeing Zhou Xiang laughing, he still followed, and he didn't pay attention to it anymore, and concentrated on pushing the bucket cart.

After following the captain for a short time, Zhou Xiang immediately found that he was not heading in the direction where he was pouring dirt, and the strange thing was that more than a dozen captains of other teams who were also pushing the bucket cart appeared one after another in this direction! It's just that none of them are followed by their subordinates, and they are all alone.

"Captain Wu, what's going on? Why did all these captains go out to work in person? "The dog baby was confused for a long time.

Zhou Xiang chuckled and said, "Hey, our brothers are lucky today, they are making a show for the big guys!" Work hard, maybe the opportunity to reach the sky in one step is just around the corner! ”

The dog baby is not stupid, it is a little thorough, and he immediately trembled with nervousness, and just when Zhou Xiang was about to cheer him up, a cheap-mouthed captain shouted at Zhou Xiang's captain: "I said, why did you bring your own subordinates?" Aren't you afraid of bumping into adults? ”

As soon as these words fell into the ears of Zhou Xiang and the dog baby, their hearts immediately became cold, and their brains also sobered up, they were just a slave, and they actually wanted to see the faces of the adults that these captains had to do to make a show to attract?

Isn't this looking for death?

Just when Zhou Xiang, the captain, glared at Zhou Xiang and the two of them with an annoyed look on their faces, they shouted in a low voice: "Shut up!" The Inner Guard cavalry is coming! ”

With these words, everyone also heard the sound of rumbling horses' hooves, and the dozen or so captains who were originally going to watch the excitement immediately lowered their heads and pushed the bucket cart forward quickly, and Zhou Xiang, who had escaped, stretched his neck to watch, and hundreds of cavalry not far away were riding horses towards this side.

Zhou Xiang and the dog baby glanced at each other, and found that the other party was also confused, believing that he didn't know what was going on with the internal guard cavalry.

"Captain Wu, are we still going to keep up?" The dog baby was a little nervous.

"Of course keep up, in front of the big guys, the captain they don't dare to do anything, rich and dangerous! Think about what kind of status people can be called cavalry guards of the internal guard! Zhou Xiang said with glowing eyes.

The dog baby may not be able to stand such a temptation, so after thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and nodded, and cooperated with Zhou Xiang to push the bucket truck to catch up with the captain.

The captain frowned, probably worried about the cavalry that was getting closer and closer, and did not drive Zhou Xiang away, but just warned in a low voice: "Wait, no matter what you see or hear, don't make a fuss, let alone speak indiscriminately!" Otherwise, before I die, I will surely eat you two. ”

The captain's tone was very flat, and his eyes were not sharp, but it was this light words and that gentle glance that made Zhou Xiang and Gouwa's cold hairs stand up, and they were so frightened that they hurriedly nodded and reassured.

I don't know what's going on, anyway, they think that if they disobey the captain's orders, the captain will definitely fulfill his words.
