"Execution!"

"Pop pop"

The sound of the whip beating his back made Gu Zheng's back ache. It was also punishment. It seemed that his foreman Liu Youliu had a sense of propriety.

It doesn't hurt the skin, it only hurts.

It's not like the people in the field. After a few whips, it turns into a bloody gourd.

For the screams on the field, the expressions of the onlookers below are also different.

Heartache, panic, fear, but more is the numbness caused by day work.

When there are problems in their own survival, where do they get the extra kindness to worry about others?

Therefore, the purpose of the disciplinarians in the field was achieved, and the execution of the more than 100 civilian men present was completed very smoothly.

The little blood on the loess ground has not lost its temperature, but the captain in the detention yard, with indifferent eyes, imprisoned these half dead people in ten wooden prison carts. With the rolling yellow sand, they were sent to the distance of the unknown road.

They were still staring at the departure of their former co-workers, but the foremen in the field woke them up in an instant with whips.

"What are you looking at? The punishment ceremony is over. Take your place and work for me. Cheer up. Don't think about those who can't think about it. If you're not sure, you won't see the sun tomorrow!"

The fear of foremen is innate.

These silent folk men, carrying one or more of the piles of tools, walked towards the place where they worked every day.

Gu Zheng is no exception. He quietly follows behind Gu Er Shu and moves towards his own earthwork excavation site.

But on the way, he looked in the direction of the team on his right unconsciously.

Because there is a man named Zhao TIANRI and Zhao erlengzi.

At this time, many people surrounded him, either in front of or behind him. In order not to let the foreman find their abnormality, they kept a certain distance from each other.

But as long as it is carefully observed, it is not difficult to see that the walking frequency of this group of people is similar. Everyone unconsciously surrounds Zhao TIANRI, either protecting or following the crowd, and takes this person as the center.

Now is not the time to approach. If Mao rashly runs over, it will only make his foreman doubt.

Just after a circle in his mind, Gu Zheng steadfastly lowered his head and buried himself in his work first.

Sure enough, because of Zhao's encouragement day and night, some civilian men, after seeing today's punishment, not only did they not give up resistance, but became more worried.

Their anxious and impetuous hearts drove this morning, and the whole air was full of restless molecules.

Until they finished their morning work and the time to eat morning food, this eagerness finally broke out.

Gu Zheng observed from the side. In the short process of distributing meals, he saw that no less than ten small teams or individuals had made intersection with Zhao Ritian in various ways.

When the morning food distribution is completed, the foremen in various places also eat in rotation and relax their vigilance.

Those folk who received the meal spontaneously gathered around Zhao Ritian and wanted to hear a statement.

Gu Zheng will not miss this once-in-a-lifetime moment.

He did not get close to Zhao TIANRI, nor did he mingle with the group of people with ideas.

He just squatted on the back of a large raised stone above Zhao TIANRI, like a lonely person who likes to eat in the corner, as if he was very hungry.

This angle did not delay Gu Zheng's eavesdropping at all. With his ability of hearing and seeing, he listened to more than half of Zhao TIANRI's plan.

Sure enough, as Gu Zheng expected, this comrade is definitely his own hometown in the traditional sense.

But judging from its characteristics and character setting, where does he have such great confidence that he will do such a big thing as soon as he comes up?

Because the ideas of these people are very consistent with the theme of crossing the crowd, while buying people's hearts and being called brothers, Zhao TIANRI wants to take these brothers to revolt.

Around Zhao TIANRI, most of them are bastards without parents and no drag.

These people who were most easily dragged away when they collected corvee in the village were also the most lawless and carefree people.

For many of Zhao's theories, they can have a great resonance. If they can run out, they don't have to run far according to Zhao's ideas. Relying on the nearby Liangqu branch, they make a living by robbery on the river course of the grand canal that will be unobstructed sooner or later. Whether it is land or water, it is a promising business.

The surrounding terrain is complex and the mountains and rivers are crisscross. If the other party's power is too strong, it can turn around and dive into the more remote mountains and forests, which will bring real trouble to the encirclement and suppression of the imperial army.

Zhao Ritan knew from the routine chat with the foreman and patrol team leader that it was really a good chance to escape in the future.

The survey officials and engineering inspectors of the imperial court will arrive tomorrow afternoon. According to the past practice, some of the guards on the dam will be transferred to follow and protect.

For the civilian men in the middle section, the garrison strength increased, but for the civilian men in the second half of their canal channel, it was a great opportunity.

Just the day before yesterday, he made an example to others and escaped a large group of people on a large scale.

According to the thinking inertia of these managers, no one will think that there are those who are not afraid of death who dare to continue to escape the next day after punishment.

Because everyone will think that after this event, the atmosphere will be particularly tense, and the monitoring on the surface will be stronger.

But if you think in reverse, this is the most relaxed period of time for the garrison foremen.

Very clever, but a little vicious.

Because the group of people who escaped and were caught today was just a bait deliberately sent by Zhao TIANRI to paralyze the imperial court.

He used demagogic language to give a false message to the people in front who had already formed their own groups and didn't listen to their own words.

Let them become the stone in the final real plan.

As for why Zhao Ritian is still constantly absorbing new people, Gu Zheng has to increase his malicious speculation.

Maybe the boy's move is just to find more cannon fodder on the road.

But I'm not afraid. I'm not with them. I just want to borrow your east wind.

The other party's plan and specific ideas were almost heard by himself. Gu Zheng, carrying an empty bowl and walking to the place where the food was distributed, heard a sentence that almost made him fall down.

"That eldest brother, where did the brothers finally settle?"

"Wagang village. There are dozens of villages, large and small, surrounded by waterways leading to rivers and canals."

"It is the place where the world competes for the Central Plains, and it is also a rural area not covered by the power of aristocratic families."

"As long as we can't hinder the influence of those old door lords, all we need to face in a short time is the troops collected by the imperial court."

Be flexible and have enough time to develop slowly.

The idea is really good, but Gu Zheng always feels a sense of disobedience in Zhao TIANRI.

What's wrong?

With a flash of light, Gu Zheng issued a basic order to the laughing and forgetting book in the divine knowledge sea: "laughing and forgetting book, scan Zhao TIANRI's physical condition."

"Yes!"

A yellow light came out from the center of Gu Zheng's eyebrows and shone on Zhao Ritian, shooting one side from top to bottom.

Sure enough, when I swept the palm of Zhao Ritian's right hand, I finally found the abnormality.

i see.

No wonder the red arrow doesn't appear on weekdays. It turns out that this is not a system, but a dead object.

It is the fairy spring or fairy source that ordinary people look magical and have appeared in countless novels.

To put it another way, you should take a pool of water with you.

According to the quality of this water, it may open urban farming, and further it may be urban power or immortal cultivation.

No wonder Zhao TIANRI is so confident that he dares to seize the first opportunity before the world is in chaos.

Day after day, day after day, other people's ancestors, this is simply a standard template through the protagonist.

Seeing this, Gu Zheng didn't have any reaction. On the contrary, he was even more calm.

This is a good thing. It shows that this escape may succeed. It also strengthens Gu Zheng's determination to fish in troubled waters.

Thinking of this, Gu Zheng took the initiative to communicate with his second uncle Gu at night for the first time: "uncle, do you want to go home?"

"Yes, why not? I'm the first group to come out of the village. Now the people around me are almost dead."

"Even young children like you have been sent out. My 70 year old mother and 10-year-old child have not been taken care of."

"Who doesn't want to go home?"

Hearing this, Gu Zheng's eyes argued very much: "uncle, tomorrow evening, Zhao TIANRI's group of people will start to escape."

"I heard today that they want to kill officials."

"You think, uncle, this is not an ordinary escape. If you come back and sit down, you will die."

"If they succeed, those of us who stay here and have not reported the situation will become their scapegoats."

"In order to vent their anger, the imperial court will not make our future life too easy."

"When we go to the mine or to more severe places, our chances of survival will be even slim."
