During the construction period, a group of hooligans appeared on the road.
They specifically blocked the way and didn't let people pass.
The craftsmen who were working were very angry when they saw this.
There are tasks every day that must be completed within the specified time.
You need to set aside some time to participate in military training.
There is no time to lose.
The leader, the sergeant, stepped forward and shouted at the hooligans, "Please make way. You're blocking the road, and the carriages can't get through."
The gangsters are extremely arrogant.
"What does it matter to you that I'm standing here? Who do you think you are? Why should I give way to you?
If you know what's good for you, get out of here and don't piss me off."
The sergeant didn't want to make a fuss, after all, they were all ordinary people at the bottom of society.
I just want to live a peaceful life.
He suppressed his anger and continued, "We built this road originally, specifically for the purpose of building an official road.
If the construction progress is affected, the consequences will be at your own risk."
"Hahaha!" The leading thug laughed arrogantly and glanced at everyone with ill intention.
"You guys are repairing the road? If you call it, will it respond?"
He took out a dagger and waved it in front of the sergeant.
He said threateningly with a smug look on his face, "I'm going to make way for you. Have you asked me if I have a knife in my hand?"
Wu Chang's face was gloomy: "It seems that you are here just to cause trouble!"
"That's right. Even if I don't let you work, what can you do? Do you know that this place is my territory? If you want to pass through here, you have to pay protection fees."
Wu Chang understood the other party's intentions clearly and was not afraid at all.
They have been conducting military training these days.
The order was that if anyone dared to cause trouble, they would be knocked down and arrested immediately.
At this time, another team drove over with horse-drawn carriages and was blocked in the same way.
After understanding the reason, they rolled up their sleeves and instantly entered combat mode.
He quietly reached out and picked up the tool as a weapon.
But these gangsters don't know that danger is approaching.
They thought these were ordinary people and could be easily intimidated.
The extremely arrogant man continued to shout: "From now on, it will cost one hundred yuan for each car passing by, not a penny less."
"What are you looking at? Are you not convinced?"
"If you dare to glare at me again, I'll dig your eyes out!"
A sergeant finally couldn't stand it anymore.
He raised his iron staff and shouted, "Brothers, kill these guys!"
Everyone rushed forward together.
Before a group of hooligans could react, they were hit on the head with iron clubs.
There was still confusion in his eyes until he fainted.
They could never imagine how the people they usually oppress would dare to take action against them.
Aren't you afraid of being arrested by the government? Aren't you afraid of being retaliated against in the future?
I really can't figure out what's going on.
You know, they dared to come to the construction site and provoke us so arrogantly.
There are officials backing them up.
Not only will all the money they rob keep for themselves, but the government will also turn a blind eye and suppress any crimes they commit in the future.
But they never imagined that these laborers would be so brave.
After finally finding the opportunity to take action, everyone felt like they had been injected with adrenaline.
I just can't stop.
I have long hated these ruffians and would show no mercy to any of them if I got the chance.
I wish I could beat all these people to death.
At this time, the person in charge heard the noise of fighting and hurried over to check the situation.
"Stop it right there! Who told you to fight if you're not working properly?"
After hearing the scolding, everyone stopped immediately.
The first sergeant to take action explained, "Just so you know, these are local ruffians and hooligans.
They ran here and blocked the road, saying that we had to pay 100 yuan for each carriage to pass.
He even took out a knife to threaten us, saying he would kill us if we didn't give him money.
We are all following the instructions of our supervisors and will show no mercy to these troublemakers."
"Is that so? Are you sure you didn't just have a fight because of something weird?"
The person in charge asked while observing the beaten thug.
"Of course we're not fighting amongst ourselves. We all get along pretty well. Even if there's a disagreement, we wouldn't fight to the death, right?"
"Look at these hooligans wearing dirty clothes, they are not working people!"
…
Guan Xian watched as dozens of thugs were almost beaten to death.
Some even fainted.
Report the situation immediately.
After receiving the news, Li Ye immediately went to the scene to watch.
In order to ensure the smooth construction of the road, Li Ye has been staying in the command tent.
I saw many people looking timid, afraid that they would be held accountable if they hurt someone.
After all, they were all ordinary people, and they were blinded by anger at the beginning.
Now that I've calmed down, I'm actually a little scared.
"His Highness is coming!"
Someone shouted, and everyone quickly made way.
Li Ye led his men forward.
Just by taking a look, I knew that the people being beaten were indeed hooligans.
I inquired about the situation again in detail.
Li Ye then asked, "Who on our side made the first move?"
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on one person.
The first to attack, Sergeant, walked forward with a frightened look on his face.
"I greet your Highness. It was me who sent someone to initiate the attack!"
"What's your name?" Li Ye asked.
He was tall and strong, wearing short clothes that revealed his dark and strong muscles.
No wonder he was chosen as sergeant. Just looking at his size, he is much stronger than others.
"My name is Tiezhu!"
Li Ye nodded in appreciation: "Well done! This is how you should deal with these hooligans.
I will immediately promote you to the rank of centurion and reward you with one hundred taels of silver.
All of you should remember that as long as the orders are given by the higher-ups, you can rest assured to carry them out.
If anyone dares to make trouble again, there is no need to worry about anything.
As long as you are a stand-up person, you will be rewarded!"
I thought I would be punished for injuring so many people.
I didn't expect to be promoted directly and be rewarded with so much money.
Everyone was shocked.
Even Tiezhu looked incredulous.
He raised his head and looked at Li Ye in shock.
"What are you still standing there for? Does this prince have any silver on his face? Go and claim your reward."
Li Ye said with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Tiezhu kowtowed twice on the ground excitedly, then stood up and ran to collect the reward money.
Everyone else looked at Tiezhu's back with envy as he left.
I can't regret it all.
When facing the gangsters, they were all very nervous and no one dared to take the first step.
If they were bolder, they would be the ones to get promoted and make money.
Everyone was determined that if anyone dared to cause trouble again, they would not back down and would take immediate action.
"Okay, let's continue working. The injured can go find a doctor for bandages, and those who need to rest can rest.
Don't worry, even if you get injured while working for this prince, your wages will still be paid." Li Ye said.
