Chapter 138: Workers' Revolt (Subscription Requested)
The scenery of the northern country, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow drifting.
Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, only reckless; Up and down the river, suddenly lost and surging.
When Wang Xu reads this poem now, he really realizes how brilliant that great man's writing is.
Although the Great Wall of Qin had not yet been officially built at this time, the Great Wall established by the Spring and Autumn Warring States and the Shang and Zhou dynasties could not be seen in Liaobei, and as for the Yan Great Wall, it was more than a thousand miles away from here, and it was estimated that it had been shattered by the armies of Great Qin and Donghu.
Donghu's hatred for the Great Wall of Yan is deep in the bone marrow, after all, the establishment of the Great Wall of Yan was established on the national humiliation of Qin Kai and Hu Qianli, so the first battle of the Donghu army to sacrifice the flag must not be to directly attack Liaoyang City, but to destroy the Great Wall of Yan first to boost morale.
Donghu wants to destroy the Great Wall of Yan, and the Qin army will naturally not let go of this opportunity to consume the other party, so there must be a tragic battle on the Great Wall of Yan, and the result of the battle should end with Donghu breaking the Great Wall of Yan.
Because Wang Ben won't set the main battlefield over there.
So at this time, although Wang Xu is not far from Shanhaiguan, he still can't see the appearance of the inside and outside of the Great Wall, but the scenery is only reckless, as long as you open your eyes, no matter inside or outside the city, it is a dazzling white world.
And up and down the river, it is really surging, the unnamed lake in the backyard of the palace has been completely frozen, although the ice is not thick, but the rippling sound of the wind and water waves in the past has been extinguished at this time.
I don't know that Weiming Lake, Datang River, and Shihe River have all frozen, and now the people in the city use clean water or snow to boil water.
In the blink of an eye, the phenomenon of thousands of miles of ice is not because the temperature has dropped so much, nor because it has suddenly snowed, but because it has been snowing for a month.
Wang Xu had seen continuous drizzle, but it was the first time he had ever seen continuous snow.
For a month, day and night, even if they maintain a positive, optimistic and enthusiastic attitude, the enthusiasm of the lonely bamboo people who want to maintain the image of the city has gradually diminished.
After all, clearing snow every day is indeed a boring thing, so Wang Xu provided the residents in the city with the first entertainment project 'snowball fight' in the country of Guzhu.
The latent violence gene in the human body will never be wiped out, this is the instinct gene brought about by evolution, so in the era of peace, only sports, or athletic, competitive sports, can release their own repressed violence genes.
Snowball fights are considered a sport that meets this condition.
And at the same time snowball fights, it can also train the physical fitness and flexibility of the tribe, and most importantly, it is a sport suitable for both men and women, so over the years, the whole city has been in a lively atmosphere more than 5,000 residents have started snowball fights in all corners of the city.
No one could have imagined that these people wearing mink furs, otter hats, happy smiles on their faces, and criing wolves with snowballs, were still unclothed and hungry half a year ago.
It's not that they are floating, and Wang Xu doesn't allow them to go out of the city to work, because this month's fine snow, the snow outside is almost half a person's high, and it is too dangerous to go out to work in such weather.
It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift, this truth is aimed at people.
But for the 'workers' in the city who have not yet adapted to the living conditions of people, not working, lying in a warm house every day, eating delicious food, is a kind of fear for them.
So the first 'uprising' incident occurred in Qiancheng, and the workers who were ordered by Qiu He to rest at home and not work collectively asked to go out to work, and Qiu He was a little caught off guard by the sudden situation.
As a last resort, Wang Xu could only assign a new job to these workers, that is, snowball fights.
So every morning in the city, there will be a lively sound of 100,000 people playing snowball fights outside the city, shaking the branches of trees within a radius of several miles.
For these workers, it doesn't matter what the content of the work is or what the purpose is, just let them work and not be idle, because when they are idle, they are afraid.
Regarding the behavior of these workers, Wang Li summed it up as 'cheap disease. ’
"I don't think it's a cheap disease, the workers are slaves, and they are born to work to live, which is also very natural, aside from their stupid behavior, in essence, like all people, Rokujo." The Zhu family played a card with a serious face and glanced at Wang Li.
"Eat." Wang Li raised his eyebrows slightly, and was about to take the card.
"Touch, I'm sorry, three cakes." Tu Tan smiled and blocked the way.
Wang Li glared at Tu Tan, withdrew his hand and put his mahjong tiles back up, "Why are we just like those fools?" We wish we had nothing to do. ”
"That's because someone is working for you, huh." Wang Xu slowly pushed the hand card, "You have to remember that work or survival is the destiny of all creatures, and you now feel that you want to be idle because someone is working for you, there is no clothes to reach out for food to open your mouth, and someone is carrying the weight for you." ”
"This sentence should be recorded in the "Commentary on the Heavenly Rules". Sitting on the couch fiddling with a pile of parts, Mo Lian listened and reached out the notepad he had brought with him.
"Then I'll change the adjective, let's be cheap." Wang Li rolled his eyes and said with his cards.
"This adjective is speechless, what does the emperor think?" The Zhu family chuckled and looked at Wang Xu.
"Cheap? It should describe you as a kind of guy who likes to work hard and does not want to make progress, and vice versa, and your life is the idea of those workers, who love to work, and would rather die if they don't work. Wang Xu chuckled and shook the dice.
"Am I stupid or are you stupid?" Wang Li's face was blank.
"Then we must be stupid, the emperor is the realm of heaven and man, and we are the realm of layman." The Zhu family said with a chuckle.
Tu Tan smiled knowingly, "A cake." ”
Thousands of miles of ice outside, Wang Xu ordered everyone to stay closed, not only the workers and clansmen were idle, but they were also idle.
Wang Li and Li Xin took Wang Jiajun and Lan Jiajun to fight two snowball fights, and the two sides seemed to be angry, and they could smash snowballs, and their noses were swollen and even fainted, and there were several accidental injuries, so Wang Xu forbade the soldiers to have snowball fights.
So dumbbells and skipping ropes were distributed to the people in the barracks, so that they could sweat and release restless hormones in the dormitory.
Because the training methods of the Broken Army and the Lanjia Army are killing and hunting, in this training state, although it helps the slave mentality to change to the military mentality, it is also easy to fall into a bloodthirsty atmosphere, so they have to train until they are exhausted every day, so that there will be no accidents caused by irritability.
Unable to unify the army, Wang Li and Li Xin, including Tu Tan and Zhai Qiu, were idle, in order to pass the time for them, Wang Xu asked people to carve a set of mahjong.
Although the name mahjong is said to be derived from the homonym of 'sparrow', it has to be said that this sport has the same effect as marijuana, that is, addiction.
The thrill of four-player mahjong is by no means comparable to the boring game of Go, so several of them are playing mahjong these days.
Li Xin has little interest in playing mahjong, mainly because he can't distinguish between three kinds and three cakes, so he can only sit cross-legged on the ground and play with blocks.
Ever since he knew the role of Jieshi Mountain, he wanted to build a 'Jieshi Immortal Palace' that could satisfy King Qin, and since he saw Wang Xu's simulated sand table and the simple Lego model bricks used by Mo Lian to build a house, he became obsessed with playing with building blocks.
Listening to Wang Xu's small talk, Li Xin suddenly sighed melancholy, "We have the tools that the emperor has rewarded us with to keep out the cold, but the army thousands of miles away does not, and I don't know how many robes in the army can't withstand the cold of Liaodong." ”
After Li Xin finished speaking, the air condensed.
Wang Li put down the cards in his hand, sighed, and nested in his chair with some interest.
Wang Xu glanced at him and smiled, "General Wang Ben is not the first time to enter Yandi, naturally there will be complete preparations, the military uniform configuration of the Qin soldiers should not be worse than ours, after all, there is Mai, the warmth effect of Mai is no worse than that of animal skin, and although there is no coal, but there is also charcoal, didn't you say that when the army marched eastward, it took a long time to cut down trees along the way." ”
Li Xin was stunned when he heard this, and smiled awkwardly, "The general is really a general, yes, it's too much to worry about." ”
"In fact, instead of worrying about the army, it's better to worry about those barbarians in Donghu." Zhu Jiamo wore a beard on his chin, "Listening to Murong Quan, the army basically took away most of the materials in the clan when they went out, and I don't know if there are enough winter supplies left for the rest of the women and children." ”
"In fact, now is a good time to wait for the surprise." Tu Tan also pondered.
"And there won't be any surprises right now." Wang Li looked up at Wang Xu.
"And then kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred?" Wang Xu didn't speak, and Mo Lian, who was sitting on the sofa, snorted softly, "You people only think about fighters, not about battle damage?" Although the Breaker Army sent it to you, you can't be so bad. ”
Li Xin said with a smile: "Two days ago, I took the Broken Army to practice, and it was actually fine. ”
"That's because there is a stove and a hot pool when you come back from training, and hot meals are served, and you also have this condition when you go out? If nothing else, thank God you can find dry firewood in this environment. Mo Lian snorted softly.
"Didn't you invent something called a sled? It's very convenient to transport supplies. Wang Li muttered.
"That's very convenient in this area, the terrain of this area has been filled in and repaired, you are going to the mountains and forests, are you really generals who have fought in battles?" Mo Lian frowned and wondered.
Wang Li, the Zhu family, and Tu Tan lowered their heads in embarrassment at the same time.
Li Xin didn't dare to squeak, although he had fought, but he didn't seem to have won.
It's embarrassing.
Mo Lian looked at this group of guys who were talking about soldiers on paper, and became more and more angry, "Although it is your own business to say how to lead the troops and how to fight, but after all, these people also survived eating the food of my Guzhu Country, even if you don't consider them, you should consider our contributions." ”
Wang Xu chuckled and patted her head, telling her to stop talking, and turned her head to look at the quail Wang Li and the others again, and now they were a little worried.
"Let's play mahjong instead." After a long time, Tu Tan whispered.
Wang Li nodded in agreement, and Li Xin buried himself in playing with blocks.
Wang Xu smiled, "Don't worry, it won't be long before winter passes." ”
