Chapter 78 Foundation
......
For everyone, the night when the gladiators appeared inexplicably in the fortress territory was a sleepless night.
Qin Xia asked the gladiators to control every guard soldier.
The Guards soldiers learned that they would not be killed or executed, and that being tied was only a temporary measure, but only if they obeyed.
As a result, nearly 10,000 Guards soldiers in the fortress territory were controlled.
There was sporadic resistance at first, but when the Guards saw the unclear psychic powers that could kill people and the ferocity of the gladiators, the resistance was put out and all the Guards The soldiers were completely controlled.
Qin Xia asked the slaves to identify those who had abused them in the Guards, and then a large number of Guards soldiers were picked out and sent to the drainage canal in the fortress territory, where the gladiators were waiting at the drainage canal. They were executed in front of the slaves.
As for the large number of members of the Moray family, they were escorted to the canal after the Guards. The exhausted gladiators who were killed during the execution forced the nobles to kill each other until the last person died. By the ditch.
When the Murray family fortress territory was taken as the foundation of the rebel army, there were more than a dozen slaves in the cave who were willing to follow the gladiators, as well as the two children Theseus Yochuka, the stone man Brown , they all arrived in the fortress territory by aircraft.
The stone men took control of all the omnics in the fortress territory, and those omnics went out to the streets to hunt down the missing slave owners, and cleared the houses to distribute to the slaves.
Until the sleepless night passed, and early the next morning, a new order appeared in the fortress territory.
The crippled Suya was dragged by the gladiator to open the warehouse door that only she could open, took out the dried meat and loaded it on a self-driving car, and then moved forward on the roads in the city, along the way Distribute food.
Qin Xia, Brown, and Angron were walking on the road.
The security omnic was already walking on the street in the early hours of the morning, broadcasting while walking to ask residents who had injured people at home to send someone to stand at the door.
So now, when Qin Xia sees someone standing at the door, he will go in and help treat the injured inside.
Arrived at the door of another house, Qin Xia saw a woman standing at the door covered with wounds. He thought she was the one who needed treatment. But when he stepped forward to release the biochemical psychic spell, the woman stopped him. , crying and begging while dragging him towards the house.
"My daughter...my daughter..."
The woman burst into tears.
Qin Xia walked into the house and found a girl lying on the ground. Her legs were all gone below the knees, and they were only bandaged very roughly.
Even the wounds began to become suppurative and infected, and the whole person was dying.
"Why are there so many of you wounded? Why are you covered in wounds?" Qin Xia squatted beside the girl, released psychic energy with both hands, and asked about the thing that puzzled her the most along the way.
Obviously the slaves did not participate in the battle last night and were not affected by the gladiators. How could anyone be injured?
The woman burst into tears, but still tried to answer.
Then Qin Xia knew the reason.
There are more than 200,000 slaves here, enslaved by nearly 10,000 Guardsmen and less than 1,000 members of the Murray family.
Slavery methods are simple and crude, even somewhat unnecessary. That is, a small dose every three days and a large dose every five days. Make sure that everyone has new wounds that have not healed.
Then, lots will be drawn randomly, and the person drawn will have his legs cut off on the spot.
The woman also said that the patriarch of the Murray family thought this was too cruel, so he once banned this behavior, but the guards continued as usual, and the patriarch did not stop it after seeing it.
"Actually, it's more likely that the old woman of the Murray family likes to watch such cruel scenes." Brown said to the woman, "and deceived you to make you think that she is still a good person, and then watched you continue to be abused by the Guards. This will make her feel more intense pleasure."
The woman was stunned when she heard this.
"Before we can create a prosthetic body, she will not be able to walk normally, but her life has been saved." Qin Xia removed her hand from the girl's wound and said to her mother, "As for all of you He was slightly injured. We will send out the medicines in the warehouse at noon."
The woman knelt down to thank her and kept kneeling until Qin Xia, Angron and Brown walked out of the house and went to the next door.
“The number of medicines in the warehouse is enough for everyone to treat minor injuries, and the number of prosthetics stored here is too large to count.” Brown knew the situation in the fortress territory at his fingertips, because he had already counted it, “ The prosthetics and medicines can be distributed at noon, so that disabled people like the girl can recover and then go into production with others.”
"There are a large amount of mineral resources and advanced mining equipment underground in the fortress territory. These slaves who have regained their freedom and the security intelligent machines that have rewritten the logic of operations are enough to make the resource extraction capability here stronger than ever before."< br>
“In addition, there are some industrial equipment here that can produce the most basic industrial products to meet people’s daily needs.”
“As for weapons and equipment... we are unlikely to establish them in the short term. Production system from ore to smelting to forging, but fortunately most of the Guards soldiers were sent to the drainage canal to be beheaded, and the weapons they freed up can be used to arm civilians.”
After listening to what Brown said, Qin Xia cast an amazed look at Brown: "He is indeed a stone man!"
Brown smiled slightly: "My higher-level compatriots can quickly count the natural people at their peak. With all the data on several galaxies, I don’t think I have any great abilities.”
"I'm humble." Qin Xia smiled and shook his head, thinking of something, "Speaking of the nobles who were arrested in the city last night, how many were there."
"More than two thousand people." Brown replied, "There are not so many members of the Murray family, but the nobility is like the roots of a big tree, intertwined with branches. Some small nobles who are attached to the Murray family and have no high knights still exist. They were not in the square last night. But I killed some of the slaves who heard the noise, and I locked them up if they were still alive."
"It feels too cheap to kill them directly." Qin Xia put the matter aside for the time being, "Wait. I'm thinking of a good idea."
Brown also put this matter aside for the time being. Anyway, the little nobles were watched by the security omnics and were fasting, so they couldn't run away at all.
"About Suya and the others...there are some doors in this place that only her blood can open. Lead them to dig out all the secret places here, then modify the unlocking methods, and finally hang them on the city wall." Qin Xia said.
Brown nodded and turned to deal with the matter.
After the stone man left, Qin Xia suddenly had a good idea.
That is to transform Suya and the others into servitors and place them at the weapon positions on the city wall, so that their souls and self-awareness are locked in a completely uncontrollable body, as a component forever. Form part of the city defense.
But considering that even the Emperor has not come to this planet, nor has the Mechanicus come, it is estimated that this idea is not easy to realize, so Brown is not stopped.
