Chapter 55 Arrest the Laborers
Unlike civilian ships, military ships are loaded with huge crossbow arrows on their decks, and a large part of the war equipment is also carried in the cargo holds, the most of which is fire oil.
On the deck, Captain Li Bing coldly glanced at the fleet in front of him, and waved his hand to let the entourage turn the rudder and intercept the fleet.
Li Bing took more than a dozen tiger and wolf guards onto the cargo ship, and the murderous and vicious aura on his body made the people on the cargo ship palpitate for a while. These soldiers belonged to the Jiangnan Navy directly under the imperial court, and they were not the kind of government and state troops raised in the fields. The border wars continued, and most of the people had been on the battlefield, and this time they were specially supervising the Huaiyang waterway project. Hundreds of heads have been cut off, there are laborers who have escaped, and officials whose projects are not up to standard......
A housekeeper in the Qi family's fleet hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Soldiers, I don't know what to bother about?"
"Ben will suspect that you have water thieves here, check ......"
"Huh?"
The housekeeper was stunned for a moment, and then saw Li Bing's cold eyes, and immediately realized in his heart, and hurriedly took out a stack of silver tickets and stuffed them into Li Bing's sleeve.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it's a little meaning, take it and drink tea. As for the water thieves, hehe, we are all serious merchants, how can we collude with those water monkeys......"
Li Bing pinched the silver ticket in his sleeve, felt the thickness, and snorted coldly: "Ben will still be able to wronged you, come here, search for me."
"Yes, sir."
The soldiers behind Li Bing poured into the cabin, searching through the neatly piled sacks. A soldier stabbed the sack with a spear, revealing the white rice inside. The grain flowed down the hole in the mouth and all over the ground.
The butler wore his cuffs, and his eyes were a little cold.
After a while, the soldiers didn't know what they had found, pointed to King Jing's guards, and shouted, "My lord, these people are water thieves......
Li Bing nodded and sneered: "Grab them all and send them to dig the canal!"
Where is this to catch water thieves, this is to catch laborers! Those guards of King Jing are tall and big, and if they don't go to be coolies, they won't waste it.
Li Bing sighed in his heart, he couldn't help it, the project was too slow, and if it continued like this, he would also be punished, so he had no choice but to arrest strong men everywhere. The able-bodied laborers in the nearby villages had been raided, and the elderly and women had taken up the field, as had children over the age of eleven. With a lot of heavy labor every day, many people can't stand it and die, so they can only keep replenishing fresh blood.
As for the water pirates, they have long since disappeared. If these water thieves are caught, they will also be the life of a strong man.
In addition to King Jing's guards, there are also some young travelers who are accused of being water pirates. There were about 300 men in all, and these soldiers were no longer in charge. However, they also arrest people regularly, and they don't know how to arrest people from the Qi family, and it's too troublesome to arrest them. And these travelers are all from the countryside, and they will be caught digging the canal for half a year, and then they will be released again, and they will not cause trouble.
"Master, this~~"
A scar-faced guard asked King Jing slightly, this person's name is Yan Ying, he is King Jing's loyal lackey, he is the commander of these guards, and the force has been practiced, although it is only the early stage of training, but it is also extraordinary.
"It's okay, I'll see what they do......"
......
......
The soldiers wanted to escort more than 300 people away, but most of them were in a hurry and had to resist.
"No, I'm not a water thief, I can't dig a canal, my mother is sick and dead, waiting for me to go home and mourn!"
A middle-aged man with a Chinese face resisted, but was stabbed by the soldier next to him, and the blood flowed and he died directly. This hand really frightened the people next to him, and he didn't dare to resist anymore, so he obeyed the order strangely.
The housekeeper coughed angrily, and said coldly: "Master Bing, it's a little too much, if the court is like you, who would dare to live here." If you slander people like this, you will be dismissed......"
"This is the order from above, and the general will also act as an order. For the sake of the imperial court's project, no matter how big the price is, it is worth it!"
Li Bing immediately ordered 300 people to be escorted back to the military ship.
"Rock Eagle, let's slaughter them all when we get on the boat, we are coming to that warship."
"Yes, Lord Wang".
The three hundred strong men boarded the military ships in turn, and the Qi family's fleet also left. The Qi family also has some understanding of the current policies of the imperial court, and will not bump into the imperial court for the sake of these travelers.
Liu Yang smiled and said lightly: "The imperial court is already in a hurry, in order to speed up, the people's resentment is boiling, and if it goes on like this, the fortunes of the great cadres will be reduced, and they will perish in less than ten years......"
"More than ten years, if Emperor Ming succeeds in a few months, we are all finished, who is still his opponent!"
......
......
Zhou Sheng and the others jumped off the fleet and floated on the water. At this time, Zhou Sheng discovered that the Lord of Chen County also had cultivation. He didn't pay attention to it before, but now when he takes a closer look, the cultivation of this Chen County Lord has been condensed, and there is a flame in the center of his mind, which seems to be nothing, and this condensed evil qi is a fire genus, which is quite extraordinary.
Zhou Sheng's eyes were sharp, and he looked directly at her eyebrows and saw the shape of the flame clearly.
The flame was not like a candle flame or a burning fire, but rather an active volcano, spewing magma and boiling smoke.
This is the fire poison at the bottom of the volcanic magma, which can only be formed after 10,000 years of condensation. After Fang Shi died, these earth evil qi would return to the bottom of the volcano, and after absorbing the energy of Fang Shi before he died, Liliang would be even more powerful. Fang Shi is equivalent to the host, and the evil breath of the earth is the parasite.
Many psychic hell spirits, Liliang is too powerful, and will divide themselves into several parts, looking for several hosts.
Ji Chen felt that there was a gaze on him, his eyes flashed, and he immediately looked for the source, and his sharp gaze reflected back.
This gaze contains her spiritual attacks, mental attacks, and thought fluctuations, which are mixed together, and if they act on a city, they can make most of the city die instantly. Spiritual death, the annihilation of consciousness, leaving only an empty body, becomes a headless tragedy, and this kind of thing happens several times a year in the world.
The spirit condensed into a needle of nothingness, piercing Zhou Sheng's sea of knowledge.
Zhou Sheng secretly shouted: "Okay! What a wonderful technique, the spirit is condensed a little, and there is no diffusion!"
This attack is the most powerful. Those ordinary alchemists, as soon as they made a move, the sky fell apart, and Liliang couldn't control it at all, focusing on one point, the radiation range was too large. It's the same kilogram of cotton and steel, and it must be that steel hurts more when it hits people, because steel is dense, and so is the attack.
"Jingle Bell"
The needle of nothingness pierced the sea of consciousness of Zhou Sheng. Ji Chen found that Zhou Sheng didn't even hide, his hands were behind his back, and the clouds were light and light. She could feel that there was not the slightest flow of energy in Zhou Sheng's body just now, which meant that Zhou Sheng was taken a hard beating, and he didn't use Liliang to fight back at all.
Ji Chen's heart was greatly surprised, even a well-trained Fang Shi couldn't take her attack like this. Although the well-practiced Fang Shi can make her attack disappear with a flick of her fingers, she still has to resist.
A child of a few years old uses his strength to hit an adult's belly, and if this adult has no defense, his stomach will hurt for a while, let alone Ji Chen.
"Amazing, this person's cultivation is unfathomable, it is estimated that he is stronger than his father, and he must not offend ......"
......
Zhou Sheng touched the big white playing in the water next to him, this big wolf can also float on the water with Zhou Sheng's help. The paws stepped on the surface of the water one by one, like a jump.
"Hey, there is no gap in the crystal wall of Zhihai, even if others attack me with spirits, it is useless. However, if you can't go out, it's also a trouble. This attack is not enough, I need a stronger mental attack to break my sea crystal wall outside......"
......
On the ship, as soon as the three hundred laborers stepped onto the deck, they were surrounded by hundreds of soldiers with weapons from the cabin. Then, dozens of soldiers came up to search their bodies and confiscate all their money and weapons.
Money was secondary, and only a small part was collected. However, the weapons were confiscated quite severely, and even blades and firewood knives were not spared. It seems that these soldiers are not at ease with these captured laborers, and must maximize their safety and not give them a chance.
Li Bing, who was standing on the side, felt that something was wrong in his heart, and he always had a sense of panic. His hands were involuntarily rested on the saber at his waist, ready to give the order to kill at the slightest movement. He trusts his instincts, which are the sensitivities developed on the battlefield, and this instinct has saved him many times.
Glancing at these laborers, when his eyes saw a King Jing guard, his face immediately changed drastically, pale, bloodless, and a trace of horror flashed in his eyes.
"Not good, there are baskets among these people. There are so many people who are masters of martial arts, and their blood and vitality are not inferior to the strongest army on the battlefield. Damn, careless......"
"Kill, kill me, kill them all......"
Li Bing shouted, and the soldiers who had been prepared for a long time were stunned for a moment, and immediately raised the long knives and spears in their hands. The crossbow arrows also whizzed in bursts, and dozens of laborers fell to the ground bleeding in an instant.
They've been through this kind of thing before, so it's very quick to get started. However, this time the opponent is King Jing's most loyal guard, each of whom has been tempered thousands of times, whether it is consciousness or body, they are absolutely fierce.
......
"No, what's going on?"
"Oh my God......"
Seeing the overwhelming array of cold weapons, the laborers were stunned and couldn't figure out the situation. Smelling the bloody gas, he squatted down, holding his head in both hands, and was pierced through his body by a crossbow arrow.
Yan Ying snorted coldly, and with a wave of his hand, the guards who were mixed with the laborers immediately scattered, and rushed into the cabin and the soldiers under various covers, and suddenly the sound of undulating shouts came, and the sound of knives cutting flesh and blood was endless.
The battle was one-sided, and the combat level of these guards was several times higher than that of the soldiers, and even if they did not have weapons in their hands, they could easily break the necks of the soldiers with their hard hands. Only a few hapless guards died in the crossbow arrows.
"Damn, they all jumped ship and fled......"
Seeing this, Li Bing's eyes were scarlet, and after shouting, he was about to jump into the water from the side of the boat.
"Did you run?"
Yan Ying stretched out his hand, and countless spider silk-thick qi cut vertically and horizontally, Li Bing's legs were cut off, his upper body hung weakly on the deck, and his intestines flowed from the wound.
Hundreds of soldiers were cut into minced meat and fell to the ground. The armor made of steel was also cut into tofu blocks, which were vulnerable.
Li Bing gritted his teeth, and his lips were bitten: "Damn, who are you, dare to do such a rebellious thing, this is a great crime of the Zhulian Nine Clans......"
There was a hint of mockery at the corner of Yan Ying's mouth, "Zhulian Nine Clans?haha, joke, who in the world can plant the Nine Clans of my master?"
King Jing is a royal family, his brother is Emperor Ming, who can kill Emperor Ming?
Yan Ying settled the battle with a snap of his fingers, and gave Li Bing a few more points to seal his blood.
"You can't die yet, the master hasn't given the order yet......"
Blood flowed everywhere, and bright red blood flowed into the water through the cracks of the big ship, attracting large swaths of piranhas.
