Chapter 173 Injured, half of the face is covered in blood (2)

He Donglai was the person in charge of the entire mine clearance operation, so he was naturally at the first scene.

Zhou Chongshan came with some soldiers to calm the villagers after learning of the conflict between the two sides.

He controlled the situation and prevented the villagers from completely losing control.

On the other hand, he had to loudly order the soldiers not to take any action.

Even if he was hit on the head by the villagers' sticks, he could only endure the pain.

Zhou Chongshan had noticed a long time ago that there was a troublemaker young man among the villagers. He was the one who always shouted the loudest and demanded compensation the most.

The man was cunning and had been hiding in the middle of the crowd.

If Zhou Chongshan wanted to catch him, he would have to push through the crowd and then pin him down with force.

But in this case.

If you are not careful, you will hurt other villagers. That troublemaker may even push other villagers out on purpose.

If someone is really injured.

It's like throwing a match into the woodpile.

When things develop to an uncontrollable level, it will cause conflicts between the two groups.

This is the last thing Zhou Chongshan wants to see.

Therefore, Zhou Chongshan remained as calm as possible, trying to resolve the matter in a peaceful manner, and also persuaded the other soldiers to calm down as well.

A farce is just that.

Absurd, yet intense.

Jiang Rou saw Zhou Chongshan in the crowd and heard most of what was said. She had a rough idea of ​​what happened.

Half a year ago, when the soldiers arrived on the island, they conducted their first mine-clearing operation.

Most of the danger was resolved at that time.

Then, in line with the country's land reform policy and in cooperation with the production brigade, the land was divided among the villagers.

I spent more than half a year in peace like this.

An accident, the previous explosion, broke the long-standing peace.

In order to protect the safety of the villagers, the troop leaders requested a second mine clearance operation that was more careful and thorough.

therefore.

Some crops had already been planted on the divided land, and perhaps there was some harvest.

In order to cooperate with this action, losses were incurred by the villagers.

The starting point of all this is for everyone's life safety.

But the villagers who suffered losses could not see this.

In addition to the losses that have already occurred, there is also the inner panic.

The incompleteness of the first mine clearance operation made the villagers unable to trust the second mine clearance operation.

These two emotions are spreading in the hearts of the villagers.

Some people took advantage of this sentiment, fanned the flames and provoked this dispute.

Jiang Rou had a cold face and stared closely at the person among the villagers who was shouting the most fiercely.

He looked like a gangster, with a look of confusion in his eyes.

This kind of person has only one goal - for money.

"We want compensation!"

"We need to change locations!"

"The troops lost money! They oppressed the people!"

It turned out to be just as expected.

The man's shouts gradually revealed his true purpose.

The villagers on the island have no cultural education and lead a hard life. If someone stirs up trouble and says there is money to be made, it is easy for them to cause trouble.

In this situation, even if the village party secretary and the village head stepped in, they would not be able to control it.

In such chaos.

Suddenly someone shouted again.

"Ah! My head! Someone is beating me! The soldiers are beating me!"

In the jostling crowd, it was impossible to tell who hit whom, and it was even less likely that the soldiers were the ones hitting people.

However.

As long as someone shouts that, someone will believe it.

The situation, which was already on the brink of danger, was completely ignited.

"Arou... no... it wasn't the soldiers who beat him at all. I saw that person! It was clearly that person who jumped up and beat him."

Song Qingqian spoke nervously.

The place where they stood was exactly the back of the villagers, which was different from the position where the soldiers stood.

Therefore, everything that the gangster did could be seen clearly.

Song Qingqian saw it, so how could Jiang Rou not see it?

but.

Jiang Rou frowned tightly and looked at the scene with a serious expression.

She spoke in a low voice.

"It's too late..."

The sparks have already fallen.

Even Zhou Chongshan and his soldiers could not control this chaotic situation, let alone Jiang Rou.

Even though they saw everything and knew the truth, this was not a situation where they could reason with others.

"Folk people, please stay calm!"

"Fellow villagers, if you have any requests, we can resolve them through negotiation."

"Fellow villagers, please believe us, this time we really ..."

Even if someone was shouting with a loud speaker, it would be of no use.

in chaos.

Hobs and forks were flying in the air.

All soldiers followed strict orders and were determined not to take action. They could only block the attack while trying their best to ensure their own safety.

But in this situation, how can I get away with it unscathed?

Several soldiers had been injured in the scuffle.

"It was because of you that my son joined the production team and went to that place to plow the soil. Now my son has lost a leg, and you have to compensate him for a leg!"

Among the villagers, there was an old man in his fifties or sixties who was the most emotional.

This man was Dazhuzi's father, and he watched helplessly as his son lost a leg.

His eyes were red with anger, and he held the hoe in his hand. He swung the hoe out with all his strength without caring about anything.

But the old man was too emotional.

When I was trying to exert force, someone pushed me from behind and I became unstable and almost fell.

The hoe also slipped from his hand.

It fell heavily from mid-air.

The silver iron block on the hoe head emits a dangerous and cold light.

The direction it fell was exactly towards the old man himself.

In such a crowded situation, there is nowhere to hide.

A critical moment.

Zhou Chongshan saw this scene.

Without thinking, he rushed over, grabbed the old man, and then used his body to block the hoe falling from the sky.

Boom! Boom!

The hoe head landed on Zhou Chongshan's back, making a sound like a club hitting him.

What’s even more terrible is the heavy piece of iron.

So many eyes, looking at the iron block on the hoe, fell on Zhou Chongshan's head.

"ah--"

"Captain Zhou! Be careful!"

"Captain Zhou!"

"Captain Zhou!"
