Outside the Great Wall, there is pure grassland and Gobi land, while inside the Great Wall, there are either patches of barren grassland or patches of cultivated fields.

Standing on the Great Wall, Feng Zheng took out a telescope and looked into the distance.

"The northern grassland is really too big. The Huns can come and go here freely. If they are not completely controlled, they will always pose countless threats to Great Qin and the Central Plains."

"Master Hou said..."

On the side, Yingbo listened and immediately agreed.

"Go, look ahead."

"promise!"

With Yingbo, Fan Kuai, Feng Zheng and others, they walked on the Great Wall.

"Quick! Front, quick..."

"Hey, be careful... such a heavy thing, if you break it again, it will be over..."

"Yeah... be careful... move slowly..."

In front, a group of laborers, under the supervision of several officers and soldiers, were struggling to carry some straight stones.

Each of these stones has some weight, so they are carried in groups of two, slowly lifting them up.

However, if they are in a group of two, this stone is heavier than them alone, so it is extremely difficult to move it.

What's more, what they walked was far from flat ground.

Either steps, or, directly a steep slope.

Although it is difficult, there is no way. After all, the Great Wall still needs to be repaired. Moreover, there are hundreds of thousands of people here. Although they are working slowly, they can't stand the strength of the crowd. The Great Wall is built under such difficult conditions. , was built little by little.

Bang!

"what!"

Suddenly, perhaps seeing Feng Zheng and the others approaching, one of them couldn't help being a little surprised and distracted. Unexpectedly, a step under his feet didn't stand firmly, and suddenly slipped.

Bang!

Immediately!

This stone fell directly to the ground.

Fortunately, this person moved a little faster, otherwise, I'm afraid that the stone will directly shoot his legs and feet under him!

But even so, he still exclaimed, breaking out in a cold sweat!

"Oh, old man Wang, you, you have made us miserable!"

Seeing the man throwing the stone to the ground, it was cut into two pieces, no matter whether it was his partner or the other groups, their faces were instantly pale and terrified!

"what happened?"

Seeing this scene, the soldiers of the supervising army came over and were furious, "You broke a good stone just like that?"

"Hey, Lord, please forgive me, Lord please forgive me!"

After hearing this, the workers were so frightened that they quickly fell to their knees, "Please forgive me, this, this is all because of his own lack of effort, and it has nothing to do with us..."

"Fart! Did you all forget General Meng's order?"

"In a group, if one person breaks a stone brick, then your group will not be allowed to eat for a day!"

"Oh, my lord, my lord, our rations are already very small... I beg you, my lord, to be more accommodating..."

"I'll accommodate you, who will accommodate us?"

"I'll accommodate!"

Just as several people were talking, Feng Zheng's voice suddenly sounded.

kindness?

Seeing this, the officers and soldiers immediately turned their heads to look.

Seeing Feng Zheng, several people were taken aback.

"you are……"

Seeing Feng Zheng's attire, and having appeared on the Great Wall, he must be a man of great status.

"I am Feng Zheng, Marquis of Chang'an, do you know who I am?"

Glancing at the man, Feng Zheng said lightly.

"Ah? You? You are..."

After hearing Feng Zheng's words, these officers and soldiers quickly knelt down and saluted, "Greetings to Marquis Chang'an!"

"Meet the Marquis of Chang'an..."

After hearing this, the migrant workers quickly turned their heads and knelt down.

"General Meng said that if one person in a group breaks a stone brick, all the people in that group will be fined a day's worth of meals, right?"

"Yes, the villain dare not talk nonsense, this is indeed an order from General Meng..."

After hearing this, the officers and soldiers quickly said, "After all, we don't have a lot of food and grass here, and it's not easy to build these stone bricks. General Meng ordered so in order not to delay the progress..."

"Yes, Lord Hou, before this, when no order was given, the stone bricks were damaged, and the progress was delayed a lot. Now, it is much better..."

"So that's how it is..."

Hearing this, Feng Zheng squinted his eyes slightly. Meng Tian's order was not cruel, and he seemed somewhat helpless.

After all, he was in charge of overseeing the construction of the Great Wall, and his 30 troops could not go back, and he had to watch every move of hundreds of thousands of laborers.

In order to make the progress faster, he also had to think of ways to speed up.

In order to prevent the stone bricks from being damaged, such an order was issued.

Of course, the reason for this is also because there are too many people here!

There are 30 soldiers alone, and hundreds of thousands of laborers are added. The daily consumption of food and grass is huge!

Only by completing it as soon as possible to make the progress faster, then the consumption of food and grass will not continue for a long time.

Therefore, sometimes, there are certain means, so they have to be used.

After all, he doesn't produce food himself, and all he asks for food from the imperial court, and the food in the world today is not enough!

Therefore, there is no way for Meng Tian to have more.

Don't let the Bodhisattva have a heart without the method of thunder, Meng Tian knows how much he is, and this land in the north of the Great Wall is not suitable for large-scale farming, so there is no other good way.

Of course, Meng Tian knew it, and Feng Zheng naturally knew it too...

Therefore, he will not directly enter the silly white sweet mode, ordering the direct overturn of this decree, or ordering all workers to eat without thinking.

There is only so much food in the world right now, and this is the largest project in Daqin at the moment. It is not difficult for you to start, but the difficult thing is for you to start, can it continue?

If you can't do it, then you can't mess around, otherwise, there will definitely be messes in the future, and you won't be able to clean them up.

"Master Hou, we don't want to punish them, but the military order is like a mountain..."

Several officers and soldiers looked at Feng Zheng and said quickly.

"Well, I know that..."

Feng Zheng nodded lightly, "Go down, I will leave this matter to me."

"promise!"

Several soldiers left after listening.

"Hey, Lord, please forgive me, please, please forgive me..."

Seeing this, several people quickly knelt down, howling and begging for favor.

"My lord, the villain is really tired. No, I accidentally slipped my foot... Please, my lord, don't punish us with a day's ration..."

"My lord, we don't have much rations for this day... We can't satisfy our hunger at all... If we stop for another day and work the day after tomorrow, I'm afraid we won't even have the energy..."

"Oh?"

After hearing this, Feng Zheng asked lightly, "What if I make another mistake?"

"Here, if you make another mistake, you will be punished again..."

"Isn't that getting weaker and weaker?"

"That's right... no, no, if that's the case, even if you do it slowly, you don't dare to make mistakes, but you may just get a few more whips on your body..."

"But that's the case?"

Feng Zheng listened and nodded slightly, "Building the Great Wall is difficult...well, if that's the case, then I'll help you!"

kindness?

what?

After hearing Feng Zheng's words, several people were taken aback for a moment, and then asked ecstatically, "The official said that he wanted to intercede for us and not deduct our rations tomorrow?"

"No no no..."

Feng Zheng shook his head and said with a smile, "What's the use of saving a meal of rations? In the future, you will make sure you won't do it again?"

Hiss?

This is...

Chapter 792 Your Majesty Trusts Him, I Trust Him

This……

After hearing Feng Zheng's words, a group of workers looked at each other in blank dismay.

This is true, no one can guarantee that they will never make mistakes in the future...

After all, in this group, not only one person made mistakes.

Moreover, among the hundreds of thousands of people, there are too many of them.

However, it is only because of such a punishment that everyone is more careful.

However, because of this, a group of people were deducted a day's ration even for sitting. If it is uncomfortable, it must be uncomfortable...

"The official...we..."

"Don't worry, I have my own way..."

Feng Zheng said with a smile, "If the government doesn't give food to them, then they can't. However, I won't let you go hungry, Yingbu, get them something to eat."

"promise!"

What?

After hearing Feng Zheng's words, the workers were taken aback for a moment.

My good fellow, so the official meant that!

That's good...

No matter what your rules are, anyway, as long as they don't go hungry tomorrow.

"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!"

"Thank you Guanye, Guanye is a good man, our reborn parents!"

After hearing this, several people quickly thanked you.

"Go..."

"promise!"

"Let's go, let's go too."

"Master Hou, don't we want to watch?"

"Don't watch..."

Feng Zheng shook his head and said, "It's futile to treat the symptoms but not the root cause. When we come this time, we will treat the root cause!"

"Master Hou, here, what is the standard and what is the book?"
