Prisoners of war camp

With the prolonged hunger, the captives have become numb. Except for their blinking eyes from time to time, these people are no different from dead people at this moment.

I only drink thin rice soup that is not much thicker than water every day, and even a man with iron can't stand it.

The captives didn't know how long this day would last, but at this time they all had a common idea in their hearts:

"It's better to die than to live like this!"

However, such days did not last long, and one morning, a harsh sound of gongs woke the captives.

Immediately afterwards, the people guarding the barracks were carrying large baskets filled with steaming steamed buns.

"Come on, two for each person, plus a bowl of porridge, eat it quickly!" said a man with the appearance of a commander.

After several days of hunger, when the hot steamed buns were held in their hands, the prisoners were surprised at first, and then they didn't care about the hot steamed buns, and swallowed all the steamed buns into their stomachs in two mouthfuls.

After eating steamed buns, everyone muttered to themselves. After so many days of hunger, they suddenly had dry food. Could this be a dead head meal?

However, these prisoners were open to death, after all, they could finally get rid of it.

Therefore, when the wooden cages were opened, the prisoners were driven out, and then tied up with hemp ropes in succession. They were all numb and at the mercy of others, like puppets.

The prisoners were then escorted out of the prisoner-of-war camp and headed towards an unknown destination.

In the evening, a group of prisoners came to a wide wasteland filled with weeds and stones, and not far away were rows of simple sheds.

Everyone thought to themselves that they came to this wasteland, are they going to shoot everyone?

However, what happened next was beyond everyone's expectations.

I saw the soldiers escorting them untied them one by one, and someone shouted loudly beside me:

"Let's listen to it. According to the rules, all of you will have to be shot."

"However, the county magistrate is kind and kind, and he is unwilling to commit another murder, so he saved your life."

"But the death penalty can be avoided, but the living penalty cannot be escaped!"

"The county magistrate has an order to open up land here, level the land, and use your strength to atone for your sins."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a little more light in the captives' eyes.

Don't kill yourself?

That's great!

As for the refining of land and leveling the land, it is not a heavy or tiring job for these prisoners who are born in farmers.

In fact, even Lin Hongfei did not expect that he asked these prisoners to be free laborers. Not only did the prisoners not think that this was a punishment, but it was a blessing.

The reason is simple. Although the prisoners have a lot of work every day, they almost go from the rising sun to the setting sun.

But whether it is the construction site or the coal mine, they all serve three meals a day, and they are full of food for every meal.

After all, if you do heavy physical work, if you can't eat enough, your body will quickly collapse even if you have a strong body.

Lin Hongfei didn't want this batch of free labor to lose their role quickly, so although the amount of wild vegetable dumplings, bran woks, black bean noodles and cakes is enough to swallow, the amount is full.

Songshan County, Renle County and Hui County are extremely poor. Even as prisoners of the [Jiangbei Joint Defense Forces], they only ate two meals a day before being captured, and they still ate more and did less, so they could only survive and stay full.

In the disaster year, they still can't eat.

Therefore, when they can have three full meals at the coal mine or construction site, they naturally feel that they are enjoying themselves!

Most people are even glad that they have been captured, otherwise they would have gone to find a good job of having three full meals this day.

These people also became grateful to Lin Hongfei, saying that County Mayor Lin is really kind-hearted and a great good person!

This result was indeed beyond Lin Hongfei's expectations.

At the same time, Chu Liangyi also contacted enemies who had a feud with Hong Tianwu, Qin Wanying and others through local relations.

In order to make these enemies believe, Hong Tianwu and others have been captured by Jiangdu County.

Chu Liangyi specially found a camera master and took a photo of the prisoner's makeup for Hong Tianwu and others. In the photo, everyone looked dead and numb, holding a sign in his hands, and his name was written on it.

Originally, these enemies did not believe this, but after seeing these photos, they were immediately overjoyed!

At the same time, Chu Liangyi also showed them some photos of the prisoners of the [Jiangbei Joint Defense Forces], making these enemies realize that many of the subordinates of Hong Tianwu and others were still alive.

Once they really return, they will definitely make a comeback.

Therefore, without any hesitation, the group of people immediately agreed to pay the money, and also made a request, that is, they would personally send their confidants to Jiangdu County and execute Hong Tianwu and others.

This request is very reasonable, so Chu Liangyi naturally did not refuse.

As for Lin Hongfei's request to collect protection fees from these enemies, the group hesitated for a moment and agreed.

They are not stupid either. Lin Hongfei can clean up nearly 10,000 people of the [Jiangbei Joint Defense Force], and it is not like playing with them.

Let’s avoid disaster if you lose money!

However, Lin Hongfei asked for a lot of money, and these enemies couldn't make up so much cash for a while.

So, these people simply took people to steal all the counterfeit villages of the Hong family, Qin family, Han family, etc. who had lost their shelter, as well as Liu Datou and Jin Xiong.

The money they stolen was returned to the pile of money, and they had to make up their own money, so they handed it over to Chu Liangyi.

Most of the local snakes in the three counties paid money and wanted to send Chu Liangyi away as soon as possible.

But five local snakes made different moves. When Chu Liangyi was about to set off to return to Jiangdu County, the Ma family and Qi family in Songshan County; the Lai family in Renle County; the Xiong family and Hu family in Hui County all made the same request, hoping to send some family children to work under County Mayor Lin.

The heads of these five families have a long-term vision in the local area. They can deal with Hong Tianwu, Qin Wanying, Han Sitong, Liu Datou and other long-standing people into prisoners, so Lin Hongfei is naturally not an ordinary person.

How could such a person be satisfied with a small Jiangdu County?

In the future, Songshan County, Renle County and Hui County will inevitably be annexed by Lin Hongfei.

If some family members were sent to Lin Hongfei in advance to serve, everyone would be considered as the Dragon Minister in the future.

Chu Liangyi naturally knew what these people thought. After all, some time ago, he also called some Chu's children from his hometown Huaishui County. After Lin Hongfei was asked to take part in the military and political positions in Jiangdu County.

However, Chu Liangyi cannot decide whether to accept these family members.

So he brought these people back to Jiangdu County. If Lin Hongfei agrees, he will stay.
