Chapter 222: Mobilization
To Ma Gui's surprise, Wang Shouye did not say anything about the high-sounding truth of protecting the family and defending the country in the face of those 'daring to die', let alone any market rules that were willing to gamble and lose.
He just put a set of equipment supported by the Ministry of Engineering in front of the twelve 'daring to die', and then spread out the sketchy drawings that had been drawn a long time ago.
"The first thing you have to do when you enter the alley is to dig two gullies on the side of the black dragon - it doesn't matter how wide or narrow, but at least three feet deep, and if you want to be stable, you can dig up to five feet deep."
"After the ravine is dug, measure the angle of the butt, and penetrate from both sides - dig from the depths at the beginning, try not to alarm the black dragon, and wait for the connection to penetrate. Then try to make the floating soil collapse on it. ”
"The passage doesn't have to be too big, just a fist-thick rope – but it has to be more than six, and within each passage, three ropes can be layered."
"In order not to alarm the black dragon, the rope buckle does not need to be too tight, as long as it is strong and reliable."
"When you tighten the rope buckle, you can choose to exert force two feet away......"
"In order to avoid blood blisters, bumps and the like, this officer has ordered people to prepare twelve sets of large full-body armor, as well as wear-resistant and anti-scratch gloves - the whole body armor will be filled with cotton wool to ensure that you can wear it comfortably, and by the way, prevent damage caused by various collisions."
In the final analysis, it was to show the twenty mountain and sea guards that although the yamen chose them to come out to 'dare to die', they had absolutely no intention of sending them to death.
And these detailed arrangements, as well as the expensive security measures, really calmed the minds of the somewhat restless daredevils a little.
Of course, this alone is far from morale-boosting.
Therefore, Wang Shouye followed the map, and after talking about the various arrangements prepared in advance, he immediately changed his words: "I don't hide it from all the brothers, this time the lottery dares to die, saying that all the mountains and seaguards will participate, but in fact, some people have been spared. ”
At this point, he deliberately stopped talking.
As expected, as soon as they heard that someone did not participate in the lottery, more than half of the twelve daring people were in an uproar, and they were short-tempered and unbright, and even began to question the fairness of the lottery in person.
"But I think it's fair!"
Wang Shouye came to a final word at this time, he faced a few angry faces, and said indifferently: "Because these people have all followed this official and sacrificed their lives in Cangzhou to save the people of a city!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the few people who were clamoring immediately extinguished their anger.
The sinister nature of the trip to Cangzhou was rumored outside the yamen, and everyone inside the Shanhai Prison knew about it.
When the Buddha's light relics were not delivered, Wang Shoubei almost took a group of attachés, almost using the way to resist their lives, and protected thousands of people in Cangzhou City.
No one else should be an exception.
But these people ......
"Facing the demon mark with a tired body, his life hung by a thread for several days, and it was difficult to protect the night, but he swore to die and never took half a step back! How about such a dangerous situation? ”
Wang Shouye's mouth was loud, and his fierce gaze swept over every face under the steps: "They don't participate in this lottery, can you be dissatisfied?" ”
The stairs were silent for a moment, and someone lowered his neck and arched his hand: "We are not unconvinced. ”
At the beginning of this one, the rest of the daring deaths also responded unevenly:
"Yes, we are not convinced."
"I'm convinced."
"Same way!"
Wang Shouye suddenly raised his tone at this time: "Next time you encounter a similar errand, you can naturally stay out of it!" ”
"And not only that, with this personal return of seniority and merit, in the future, errands, rewards, and even super-selection can be ranked in front of others!"
After a slight pause, confirming that there was already some brilliance in the eyes of the daring deaths, he continued: "You also probably know that among the brothers who have returned from Cangzhou, there are already two titles that have made up for the capital—and after the black dragon enters the palace, most of them will vacate one or two places. ”
"These official positions ......"
"This official has already asked Lord Jian Zheng for instructions, and he will choose the best among you, I hope you will not let the court and this official down!"
The danger is smaller than expected, and the benefits far exceed expectations.
The originally low mood of the people who dared to die was finally pulled to a high place at this moment.
exchanged glances with each other, and said in unison: "I am willing to die for the adults and the court!" ”
"Good!"
Wang Shouye rolled up the sleeves of the flying fish suit, and ordered: "Since the military heart is available, the extra officers will not be said, load all the equipment into the car, and we will start immediately!" ”
…………
Starting from the back door of Shanhai Prison to the demolished alley, it was only a quarter of an hour's journey.
Before Ma Gui, who was traveling with him, finished filming the rainbow fart, the horse pulling the cart had already stopped at the mouth of the alley.
Wang Shouye and Ma Gui got out of the carriage, briefly explained a few words, and divided the twelve daredevils into two waves, and ordered them to rotate into the two zhang around the black dragon to carry out their operations - mainly for fear that they would be stewed in a pot by accident, and they had to choose another daredevil' - and then ordered everyone to 'dare to die' into the alley.
Stretching his neck and looking around for a long time, seeing that the excavation work of the daredevils was very smooth, Ma Gui moved his gaze back, and pretended to be relaxed: "These monkey cubs, I was really motivated by you, brother, and I have to use the shovel sent by the Ministry of Works, I am afraid that I will be able to complete the errand before it gets dark." ”
In fact, at the beginning, the yamen prepared ordinary shovels.
But it was freezing on this day, and the soil on the surface was not much softer than the stones, and once the construction did not go well, it would definitely be detrimental to morale.
So in the morning, Wang Shouye specially ordered someone to find some 'sharp weapons' from the Ministry of Industry.
Saying......
One of them looks like the legendary Luoyang shovel.
Of course, according to the introduction of the Ministry of Industry, that thing was actually used to dig wells.
But it was said that Wang Shouye listened to Ma Gui's words, and focused on 'before dark', and couldn't help but be speechless - how eager was he to go to Dongchang to buy and sell people at night?
It seems that in addition to the grievances mentioned before, he is afraid that he has hidden some important information.
But Wang Shouye didn't bother to pursue it, anyway, it was just the family members of a few embezzlers, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with engaging in Zhulian - in fact, every time he saw corrupt officials on the news before, he hoped that the other party's whole family would be unlucky, and he didn't think about whether it would affect the innocent.
But......
Strictly speaking, he seems to have joined the ranks of corrupt officials and corrupt officials.
Well~
Looking at it this way, it actually makes sense to hurt your family.
Even the abolitionist party, which was hated before, doesn't seem to be so hateful when I think about it now.
"Dude!"
Just as he was thinking about something, his wrist was suddenly grabbed by Ma Gui, and Wang Shouye, who was like a vice, grinned with straight pain.
But before he could cry out in pain, the words that followed made him no longer care about these little things.
"Look, those who dare to die seem to have an accident!"
Wang Shouye hurriedly looked up, and saw that the people who dared to die were throwing away their armor and running this way—and their number had been sharply reduced from the original twelve to six!
Looking further away, six bodies of leather armor were spread on the ground, and looking at the shriveled outline, you knew that it must be empty inside.
How come?!
They were just digging a trench next to them, how could they inspire the black dragon to defend themselves and fight back?
