Ling Feng's explanation made Liang Yue completely speechless to this man
She didn't even know how to describe Ling Feng.
Because he does things in his own way.
It's such a pure emotion that he doesn't feel wrong about anything he does.
Even at the expense of others to achieve his own goals, Ling Feng also has a way to justify himself.
The key is that Ling Feng is not quibbling, he thinks he is right from the bottom of his heart
Pure good or pure evil is something to be feared.
Liang Yue kept quiet and stopped communicating with Ling Feng.
At night, temperatures plummet
Ling Feng said to Liang Yue and the others,"Let's go back to rest at night!" Now that my vision has deteriorated, I'm not worried that Zhang Yi will notice anything unusual."
He took the special forces back, passing by the tunnel excavation site on the way to inspect the work
There are more than 1,000 surviving residents in Xujia Town, and nearly 1,000 laborers can be dispatched.
But tunnels can't be dug by so many people at once.
It has to be done in batches of 20 people each.
And then we'll do shifts every half hour.
The first digging is the most tiring
Because there is a certain depth below the surface that has been frozen into frozen soil, it is very difficult to dig only by manpower.
Ling Feng led the team leaders over and asked Academician Wu, who was in charge of directing the project," How was it? Did the first day go smoothly?"
Professor Wu said,"Everything is going according to the original plan. If nothing unexpected happens, we will be able to open this 1500-meter tunnel in a month if we continue digging around the clock!"
"And then-boom!"
Academician Wu made an explosive gesture and smiled." We will send Zhang Yi's shelter into the sky with 2000 kilograms of explosives!"
Ling Feng nodded in satisfaction.
He looked at the construction site, which was busy and bustling.
There are several armed soldiers guarding the area.
And not far away, waiting for their shift hands with shovels, bamboo baskets, already waiting
Suddenly, Ling Feng frowned. He quickly walked to a villager and stopped him.
"You, raise your head and let me take a look!"
The villager had a scarf wrapped around his face, but he was small and thin
Upon hearing Ling Feng's order, she pulled off her scarf and revealed a tender face.
Ling Feng's eyes widened." How old are you?"
"I'm thirteen years old."
The boy answered honestly
Ling Feng was suddenly furious. He shouted at Xu Dongtang and Academician Wu nearby," Didn't I tell you not to let children under the age of sixteen work?"
"Do you know that children are the future and hope of the nation!"
Xu Dongtang hurriedly stepped forward and said," Captain Ling, we are all farmers. Although he is only thirteen years old, his strength is not inferior to that of adults in the city."
Ling Feng said angrily,"I said no! No matter how tense the project is, we have to have a bottom line when doing things!"
He pointed at the boy."Bring him back to me at once! This is a battlefield. Children cannot join us!"ωωωǒm
Xu Dongtang hurriedly pulled the child aside." Yes, yes, yes. I'll bring him back immediately!"
The boy looked at Ling Feng with gratitude and admiration in his eyes
Not far away, Liang Yue witnessed this scene and felt even more speechless.
She really did not know how to evaluate Ling Feng.
Ding crab?
Liang Yue was speechless, but it was true that these two people were very similar.
Xu Dongtang asked someone to take the child away
Ling Feng said to him,"In order to speed up the progress of the project, we must not stop this tunnel for 24 hours." Mayor Xu, I hope you can take the lead and let everyone overcome it."
Xu Dongtang was dumbfounded.
Ling Feng had never told him about this.
No, Ling Feng has never considered his and Xujia Town villagers 'opinions.
Including digging tunnels. Now, these people don't know what their purpose is.
It's said that it takes 24 hours to rotate continuously. Xu Dongtang is scared silly.
"Captain Ling, isn't this workload too much?"
Ling Feng asked,"Is it big? 40 people per hour, about 1000 people a day. Isn't that reasonable?"
Xu Dongtang argued," But in this kind of weather, even if you only work for half an hour a day, ordinary people's bodies can't stand it!"
" Moreover…if it really works continuously, we don't know how long this project will take."
"Captain Ling, what are you trying to do?"
Xu Dongtang mustered up the courage to ask
Ling Feng didn't explain to Xu Dongtang. He just patted Xu Dongtang's shoulder lightly.
"Old Xu, you just need to cooperate with us. Do you understand?"
"Everything we do is for the good of your Xu Family Town. If you don't get rid of Zhang Yi, you'll all die in the future!"
"Be smart. Don't think I'm the one who's harming you!"
After Ling Feng finished speaking, he turned around and left without giving Xu Dongtang any chance to bargain.
Or in his eyes, Xu Dongtang also has no bargaining qualifications
"Let's go back and rest! We'll continue to come tomorrow!"
Ling Feng smiled and said to Liang Yue and the others,
As the main force of frontal feint attacks, they launch special ability attacks, and the consumption is also very large.
Liang Yue saw through Ling Feng at this time, so she didn't say anything and followed him back to Xujia Town across the river.
After returning, someone immediately instructed the women of Xujia Town to prepare food for them.
Not long after, a table full of food was brought to Ling Feng and the others.
The main food is steamed bread and grilled fish, after all, in today's reserves of these two kinds of food is the most
Ling Feng ate in big mouthfuls. He could bite off half of the handmade steamed bun with just one bite.
For a while, life became plain and boring
Ling Feng led a few Inhumans and feigned attacks around the Shelter every day as usual.
On the other side, the villagers of Xujia Town became coolies, digging tunnels with great effort.
Fatty Xu was a mutant and would be brought back to Xishan Base in the future. Therefore, no one asked him to participate in the work.
However, after losing his communication equipment, he also completely cut off contact with Zhang Yi.
Time came to the third day
The tunnel was successfully excavated to more than 100 meters. At this time, the difficulty of the working environment was reflected.
The deeper you go, the thinner the oxygen gets.
There was no oxygen supply, and only the most primitive way to pump air in was through a rubber hose.
Similar to the most primitive diving equipment, air is pumped into the tunnel by manual shaking from the outside
However, this method is obviously far less effective than modern equipment.
Add to that the cold temperatures and the high levels of labor, and someone finally falls first.
There was a lot of shouting in the tunnel, and everyone carried the person out in panic.
There was a military doctor in the special forces team. After checking it out, he shook his head.
"Acute myocardial infarction. I can't save him."
The dead man was Xu Youzhi, 52 years old, a construction worker.
Older people are most likely to trigger myocardial infarction and cerebral infarction under low temperature.
The disease is not incurable, but it needs to be quickly transported to a place with a good medical environment for bypass surgery.
West Mountain Base has such medical conditions
But there's no need to go to all that trouble for an ordinary villager.
So Xu Youzhi was directly sentenced to death
The villagers of Xujia Town looked at Xu Youzhi's still warm body and felt sad and angry.
Xu Youzhi isn't dead yet, but he's already dead.
And he died working for West Hills.
A young man shouted to the special forces members around him,"What you're doing is inhuman! They're treating us like cattle and horses. I'm done!"
As he spoke, he angrily threw down the shovel in his hand
Seeing this, the surrounding villagers of Xujia Town also threw down their tools and shouted to give them an explanation.
Shen Hong frowned and said coldly,"The orders of the organization cannot be violated!" Everything we did was to avenge you."
" Now that we've reached this stage, anyone who dares to retreat will be considered a deserter!"
The word deserter is a bit heavy by Shen Hong
He waved his assault rifle and aimed it at the villagers.
This simple action was like pouring a basin of cold water on their heads, cooling down the blood in their bones.
Xu Dongtang sighed: "Bring the man back!" Change!"
The villagers 'eyes were filled with sorrow. They could only carry Xu Youzhi's body away and prepare to bring it back to Xujia Town for burial.
But when one person dies, things get out of hand.
As the tunnel gets deeper, the working conditions and intensity change rapidly
The second, third, fourth…
More and more villagers in Xujia Town died in the process of digging tunnels
Some people are doing it, and suddenly they fall to the ground.
Some people come home from a day's work and lie in bed and never wake up.
The human body is fragile.
They're doing everything they can to survive the freezing temperatures.
Now they were forced to work in harsh conditions, as if it were the last straw that broke the camel's back and killed them
At the back, a few bodies come out of the tunnel every day.
The mood of the villagers in Xujia Town also became irritable as the number of corpses increased.
Although they did not dare to clash directly with the gun-wielding special forces, they continued to clash verbally and make small moves in private.
After Ling Feng learned of this situation, he was unusually calm.
Because everything was as they expected.
"Just pick a few leaders and kill them. Some people don't know fear until they see blood."
"In addition, we only require the progress of the project. Let their village chief and mayor manage it."
"They're the best at managing their own people. They're better than us."
