The Taohuashan bandits taken in by Liangshan are different from the bandit members of the two armies of the north and south of the pirate empire who were forcibly recruited at the beginning, Liangshan, without the official name of the country and the invisible strong binding force and the hope of prosperity and fame, just talk about the national righteousness or something, it is useless to the Taohuashan bandits.

If a gangster cares about the overall situation, interests, and a sense of social responsibility, then he is not a gangster, and he will not be a gangster who harms society.

The vast majority of the bandits in Peach Blossom Mountain lack the most basic cultural knowledge, are trapped at the bottom of society, ignorant and don't care about this or that, they only live for themselves.

For various reasons, these bandits don't even have the only family members who can be concerned about their conscience, and they are all singles who can be killed with wanton ferocity.

Because of this, Zhao Yue never had the intention of transforming the training of bandits into a regular army with a righteous goal and national integrity.

That's impossible.

The only feasible thing is the bandits' belief in the idea of fighting together and surviving, and the most crucial vital interests are the fundamental driving force and binding force of all the bandits' behaviors.

Zhao Yue wants to train the bandits into powerful bandits, so that these people can consciously hold a group and be loyal to Liangshan for themselves in the troubled times, obey the command, and fight bravely.

In the summer, the defeated Taohuashan bandits totaled more than 9,000 people, after the war, a total of more than 8,000 people were captured by land and water, and the number of people who were lost was either drowned in Shuibo, or was killed on the spot on the east bank of Shuibo, all died, none of the minions and big and small bosses escaped, only Zhu Biao and Zhu Hu were able to escape by luck.

Today, the number of bandits has been further reduced, and only more than 7,200 remain.

Nearly 1,000 people were naturally eliminated in the training and transformation, and they all died.

Some of them were already beasts before the start of the training, and Liang Shan could not effectively control the reform, or the cronies of the Zhu family could not be retained, and they were beaten to death by the bandits of the same mountain;

Some of them are stubborn and unruly in the process of training, or unruly or unwilling to endure hardships and suffer crimes, and they do not know the so-called willfulness, and they all disobey management in various ways, resist training, and even secretly incite rebellion.....

Isn't it unwilling to reform and unwilling to endure hardships in training?

Okay, then don't transform and don't train. All changed to work for survival food.

There is only one place to work: the empty duckbill beach.

There is only one labor project: the transformation of Duckbill Beach.

First, the rocks on the side of the mountain were moved and the cement was used to build a surrounding embankment, which isolated the original natural diving area from the water and built a beachhead barrier that was more than half a person high. This is a flat and vast area that needs to be used to prevent the water level of Yangsanbo from rising sharply during heavy rains and floods, and to flood the Yazui Beach.

This project alone tortured those gangsters who could not be rectified to the point that life was worse than death, hot weather, intense labor, and food was only the worst for them to sustain their lives and the most basic physical strength...... Just like the little devils drove the Chinese laborers back then, how could these gangsters be willing to work, but under the fierce and ruthless supervision of the Liang Shanjun, they had to grit their teeth and persist in doing it, otherwise the lightest thing would be that the leather whip would be beaten without a head or face, and there would be no food.

What frightened the gangsters the most was:

Those who are stubborn and even dare to resist are usually not killed with a knife, but will be crippled by breaking their arms and legs on the spot, and people who can still survive will be ruthlessly thrown and buried alive in the diving area that they have worked so hard to isolate......

This involves the second step of the renovation of the Duckbill Bank: digging the silt from the dive area to fill in the isolated dive area and spreading it inside.

Except for the training ground reserved in Liangshan and the racetrack that circles around the perimeter of Yazui Beach, the entire narrow Yazui Beach has to be covered with silt, which is thick, at least one foot...... The fertile land covered with silt will become vegetable fields or grazing horse areas planted with grass in Yangshan, just like the renovated golden sand beach, and the gangsters who have been crippled and abandoned will naturally become fertilizer in the silt......

The gangsters, whether they are already unlucky or those who grit their teeth and pretend to be honest, all have numb scalps and tremble with fear......

What frightened the gangsters who pretended to be honest even more was:

It was they who had to carry their abandoned peers and throw them in...... and buried a basket of mud with his own hands.....

Looking at the helpless peers who are dead in their hands and feet lying or sitting in the diving area struggling in vain, struggling like maggots in the black and smelly mud that is constantly covered, oozing screams and begging for mercy, gambling and vowing never to dare again, as long as they can be forgiven once and can live, they will be loyal to Liangshan from now on...... How and how...... But the overseers of Liangshan were all as deaf as deaf, expressionless and heart-like as iron, their indifferent eyes swept over the other gangsters, and they watched the despair and wail in the mud until they fell silent, and they were indifferent from beginning to end.

In fact, many of the overseers were deaf and mute, and they could only stare at them, and could not hear the howls and pleadings of the gangsters.......

No sympathy, no forgiveness......

One after another, the living and vicious men who were once stubborn and powerful, triumphantly harming the people and harming others were deposited under the nearly two-meter-thick silt and slowly decayed......

The fierce and willful gangsters are not willing to suffer this great crime from anger, always thinking about taking weapons to resist and waiting for the opportunity to seize the boat and escape, as for the attack on Liangshan, they dare not dare, they have seen the strong combat effectiveness of the Liangshan people and the terrible bow and crossbow and gunpowder weapons in the battle when they were captured, they no longer dare to imagine the good thing of taking the opportunity to seize Liangshan entrenched, the only thought is to escape, and then to resist and escape always fail again and again, to the horror of being buried alive, and those who are fortunate to be alive are finally honest.

But it is not honest and willing to work hard, and it has also expressed its willingness to sincerely obey the management and command of Liangshan and the training and transformation, and the people of Liangshan will give them a chance and let them go.

Forced surrender under special circumstances is not credible, especially the oath of such a gangster......

It's still the same work, the same hard work, the only difference is that the food is finally better, at least there is vegetable soup to drink, and you can eat a little more.

The embankment was built in one place, and the reserved sluice gates opened to the water outside and the irrigation canal dug in the duckbill beach...... Day after day, time flies, and the work of laying the silt spreads out one by one, and the laborers and gangsters also die of exhaustion and illness one after another, and are also filled under the silt and become fertilizer.

The rest of the gangsters finally felt that they understood, Liang Shan was afraid that he didn't want to let a guy like them live at all, and he didn't have any forgiveness for them, and he was afraid that he would exhaust them all to death.

They didn't know that the Pirate Empire was so ruthless with those stubborn foreign captives.

Grief and anger were frightened, and the anger under despair was irrepressible, but by this time it was too late, there were not many of them left, and they were so exhausted that they didn't have much energy and strength...... It's better to die than to live, the reason why gangsters are strong is because they have a strong desire to survive, but as long as they can live, they won't take the initiative to commit suicide, isn't there any hope for this? Liang Shan may not be as vicious and vicious as he imagined. Persist until the project is completed, and maybe there will be a chance to be reborn......

But this opportunity is just wishful thinking in desperation...... Sin has to pay a price before it takes its last chance to repent.

Such gangsters were picked out from the rocky beach in batches, and finally all of them were filled under the silt of the duckbill beach.

Liang Shan doesn't have time to do anything to this kind of stubborn gangsters, with great love, perseverance, perseverance, and compassion.

The sinful nature of such people has been formed, and no matter how considerate and caring you are, they will not be moved, let alone change their bad nature. If you are soft and compassionate, it is more likely that they will feel that they have an opportunity to take advantage of it, and they will gain an inch and become a profit....... How many of the vicious prisoners who came out of prison reform in later generations can truly repent and rehabilitate? More people have more criminal means and experience, and more criminal connections, and it is easier to pull up gang forces, and if they want to make up for the debt trapped in prison, they will only be more greedy, cunning, and more vicious and vicious.......

Dying early is the best choice for Liangshan.

There are so many important things to face and do, who has the time to show love to the stupid gangsters who have been sin and still die.....

Mingbu, the Peach Blossom Mountain robbers who honestly received training in the rocky beach were also executed.

The people of Liangshan took the bandits to dig the barren beach land around the silt shop by the water, and also planted pasture, but the most important thing was to dig deep in the diving area of Liangshan that is easy to freeze in winter so that outsiders can dive into the Liangshan diving area, and transform the reeds. Of course, it is also through labor to further test the bandits...... There's a chance to escape outside the water. The area around Liangshanbo is either a wasteland with lush weeds or dense forests, and it is easy to escape, as long as you wait for the opportunity to drill into the weedy forest, or hide in the vast reeds of the diving area......

The bandits who sincerely obey Liangshan and want to survive on Liangshan will naturally work hard, perform better than in the Jedi of Rocky Beach, prove their sincerity, and will not escape.

Those guys who pretend to be actively reforming, even if they intelligently judge that this may be a test trap deliberately set by Liang Shan, but the opportunity is in front of him, and the opportunity is rare, he still can't help but want to escape.......

And those who dared to flee were all caught back, and none of them succeeded.

Those who were not disabled or killed on the spot were helped by other peers who did not escape, and dug a deep pit in a relatively soft place on the side of the berth, nearly three meters deep, and then, the people who escaped were killed, disabled, or still alive, and the number of people ranged from three, two, or four or five, to the people who did not run, and the clothes were stripped naked by the peers who did not run, and the straw rope bundles were carried together, and the big head was planted into the well, and the pit was filled and buried, and the dead died, but the ones who did not die were buried in the well dug by themselves, and the clothes were burned, and after the well was filled, the Liangshan people trampled on the horses until they stepped on the flat........ The fugitives, without exception, also prove this..... Sure enough, it was a trap that Liang Shan deliberately tested people's hearts.

It's just that there are not many bandits waiting for an opportunity to escape, and there are only a few people who die so horribly.

Those who didn't escape must have thought about it, but they didn't dare to put it into action, this kind of talent is the biggest hidden danger in Liangshan.

Liang Shan deliberately dealt with the escapees so brutally so that the other bandits could see for themselves.

And the bandits were so frightened that their legs went weak when they saw the fate of the escapees...... Both the sincere and the pretender couldn't help but wipe a cold sweat and secretly rejoice....... Fortunately, Lao Tzu didn't ........ Be a fool. The people of Liangshan are so cruel and terrible. The Cangzhao family is indeed as rumored, and the other side of extreme mercy is extremely cruel......

Interestingly, for such a master leader and such a Liangshan, the bandits recognized it more, and began to take the initiative to follow it psychologically.

Because, as villains, they know better than ordinary people:

In this troubled world, there is no charisma without benevolence and righteousness, and there is no foundation for standing without cruelty. Confined to benevolence and the noble virtues and dogmas preached by Confucianism, such a celebrity and such a wealthy family will become the first victim when there is a turmoil, and will only perish worse in the disaster.

Benevolence is not benevolent, weak and can be bullied, and there is a tougher and more ruthless heart than the daring offender, and more decisive and cruel means, such a family will be truly strong, and it is most likely to lead everyone through the troubled times to survive......

How to shock these bandits who have crooked hearts, how to make the bandits have a strong will to actively follow Liang Shan under passivity, Zhao Yue gave suggestions based on the various bad consequences of the criminals released in the prison in later generations, but the main credit is still in He Xuantong, a Taoist military master who understands human nature and is best at observing and grasping people's hearts.

He Xuantong, in terms of playing conspiracy, is far inferior to the level of Zhiduoxing Wu using those means, and in terms of staff and military command to fight wars, he is not good at it, nor is he the material for polemics, but his specialty is incomparable to Wu Yong, and the role of He Xuantong in Zhao Yue's Liangshan anti-Jin strategy of collecting bandits into an army is not comparable to Wu Yong.

There is a specialization in the art industry. Current events make heroes.

The special environment and needs can make ordinary people with special abilities create dazzling brilliant achievements and become extraordinary.

Zhao Yue understands this truth very well.

After dealing with the escapees in such a brutal manner, the steward of Liangshan also specially told the bandits: Escapees, it is difficult for them to get along in today's society, not to mention killing themselves, and exposing the secret that Liangshan privately took you in and gave you the court repeats a way to live......

If the escapee, if he pretends to be a good citizen and wants to live a normal life, and has the imprint of the Peach Blossom Mountain bandit on his face or body, the government also knows this, and the general order rewards encourage the people everywhere to pay attention to all strangers whose image is suspicious, and there are few people in today's society who can be called good, no matter what kind of people dare to be fierce and want to make a windfall, even if it is a pedantic Confucian who pays attention to the image, he naturally hates gangsters the most....... The fugitives will not be able to hide in the people at all, they will be captured by the locals or even killed on the spot, they will be caught by the government and executed by the public, and their heads will have to be displayed on the city gate;

If you want to run to Erlong Mountain, Chao Tianwang, who is conceited as the righteous hero of the Green Forest, will not spare the scourge of the most familiar and disgusted Taohua Mountain bandits, and if he does not kill the civilians in exchange for popularity, he will at least not accept this kind of gangster who is sinister and difficult to control and will destroy the reputation of Erlong Mountain.

At least the bandits in Peach Blossom Mountain themselves look at Erlong Mountain like this, thinking that they are damned in Chao Gai's eyes, and there is no need for Liangshan people to say anything about it.

None of those who escaped thought of taking refuge in Erlong Mountain.

Erlongshan military discipline is strict, this is not allowed, that is not allowed, more particular than the regular army of the imperial court, it is easy to lose their heads if they violate military discipline, and the escapees are all trying to find a place to gain a foothold and freely do evil and find happiness, how can they stand this.

This society is not the time when you can be a robber in the past, Shandong can't get a foothold, so you can only flee to Tianhu Wang Qingna, but it's a long distance, not to mention penniless, it's difficult to move an inch, even if you have money, it's difficult to run so far alive in a society where everyone is sinister, and you will also die in evil robberies or report arrests.

But the fugitive still chose to escape, not because he didn't know the difficulties and dangers outside, but because he was lucky, he wanted to break away from Liangshan's control and do whatever he wanted freely.......
