Many, many people temporarily saved their lives after Prince Xian took action, but because the border town was already short of medicine, those who were burned by the scorching rain hid in caves, but in the end they still did not escape the fate of death.
Among them, there are also many border troops.
Why do people fear heaven and respect gods?
Natural disasters are ruthless and cannot be changed without human intervention.
Fortunately, General Wei and Lieutenant General Lin are not unreasonable people. King Xian is powerful, but King Xian is not a real god. Given the current situation in the border town, they both understand that King Xian cannot change herbs.
In just a few days, they had seen too many injured soldiers die of pain due to lack of medical treatment, and some could no longer bear it and begged the people around them to give them a break.
Now that there is finally a medicine, they no longer have to watch helplessly.
There is no one who doesn't like 'zero-yuan purchase', and with the added strength of more people, the gang leader and the diligent women have just prepared dinner, and the yard is already full of people arranged by Lieutenant General Lin to go 'zero-yuan purchase'
'What I got.'
They lived temporarily in a wealthy man's large courtyard. There were several open-air gardens in the house, which had been corroded by acid rain. There were no flowers or green grass on the ground. Some big trees were still standing, but they were also damaged by the soldiers.
They chopped it up three by five and prepared some stretchers for carrying the injured.
There are many craftsmen among the people and victims of the disaster. Old Man Wang is a carpenter. His craft tools are more valuable than his own life. This escape has never left him for a moment. Fortunately, he cherishes it and now wants to
When doing carpentry work, he can take out tools in a swipe.
A simple stretcher is a very simple job for a carpenter, just make two sticks of the same length and size, and then let the women fix the two sticks with thick cloth so that people can lie on them.
Let people carry and carry the cloth without breaking it, and it will be done.
The supplies sent by the court this time also included fabrics, and some of the people who went to 'Zero Yuan Shopping' were strong women. Deputy General Lin did things properly. Women know best where the things at home are hidden, so they went to 'Zero Yuan Shopping'.
'Ah, I still need a woman to search more carefully.
Sure enough, the women brought back a lot of needles and threads that men would never be able to handle, and the problem of sewing stretchers was immediately solved.
The houses in Liancheng were not as completely destroyed as in the border city, and everyone also found many buckets and earthen jars that could hold water.
The departure of the whole city should have given the people enough time to sort out. Everyone found nothing of value in each house. Not to mention money, they didn't find a few ordinary clothes, quilts, etc.
Don't even think about it if you only have a little food.
The eyes of the people in the border towns and the victims of the disaster in Baihe Country were shining brightly when they looked at the mountains of things they could buy for "zero yuan."
Lieutenant General Lin said that Prince Xian had ordered that all these things be distributed to them, even the soldiers did not pay a penny.
Of course everyone knows that Prince Xian will not taint the soldiers, but they also know that they cannot be envious of this, let alone jealous.
Naturally, Qi Bao'er did not need to worry about these things. After dinner, she rested for a night in the main courtyard specially arranged by Vice General Lin. Early the next morning, the large team was preparing to leave Liancheng and move towards Yicheng.
Yicheng is the main city of Yizhou. If even Yicheng is affected, they will have to continue walking towards the capital.
But today, the atmosphere of their entire escape team has changed drastically. The original uneasiness and despair have disappeared almost overnight, and everyone has a smile on their face; the team is no longer like the previous two.
The heaven-like silence was numb, but it added a lot of excitement.
It's just a little noisy.
General Wei behind him seemed to be in a lot of energy today. He walked on his own without any help, "As the old saying goes, don't panic when you have food in your hand; everyone has luggage to carry on their backs.
I feel confident in my life.”
Lieutenant General Lin was chatting with General Wei while chewing pancakes, "No, thinking about yesterday, every one of them seemed to have no hope of living. It makes me very angry just looking at them."
"General, tell me, we are clinging to them in order to save food and drink, but they are still attacking us like a dead fish. How can our brothers feel at ease?"
General Wei snatched his cake, broke off a small piece and stuffed it into his mouth, then gave the big one back to him, "It's really no wonder that the people can't think about it. When I was a child, I escaped famine with the adults. If I didn't have anything to eat or drink in my hands,
That’s really hopeless.”
"It's okay for us. The court still takes care of us. That was really difficult when I was a child."
"It was Dazi from Linguo who came in. The general guarding the gate was nothing. He took advantage of Dazi and didn't even send troops to stop him. We didn't know anything. The Dazis had already rushed into the village and killed them again.
One after another."
"Almost every household in our village has a cellar for storing grain. Many people died, but most of them survived by hiding in the cellar."
"After the masters left, the village chief and Ren Lianfu wanted to go to the county to report the crime. Who would have thought that the son-of-a-bitch county magistrate had already escaped. The door of the county government office was wide open, and there was no one inside.
.”
"There was no other way. The village chief had no choice but to take us and escape. He was afraid that Da Zi would come again, so he didn't dare to pack more things. Everyone just took their money and food and left."
"All the young men were killed by Da Zi, and the rest were either old or young. Our village was not the only one who fled on the road. Within two days, all our belongings were robbed by people from another village."
Speaking of this, General Wei had tears in his eyes and his voice trembled.
Lieutenant General Lin could no longer eat his dumplings. He did not expect General Wei to have experienced such a hardship.
Lieutenant General Lin had never experienced an escape himself, but the place where he had been stationed had received victims who had fled from other places. There were some things that General Wei did not need to explain clearly, and he knew what he knew.
When a person is extremely hungry, what can't he do?
As for the evil thoughts in people's hearts, once the boundary is broken, there is no need to continue it, and they may not be able to return to normal people.
Lieutenant General Lin has destroyed a gang that ate one person, and also arrested wealthy businessmen who took advantage of natural disasters to make a fortune. It can be said that once a natural disaster or man-made disaster forces the people to flee, all kinds of dirty and smelly things will happen.
That's why when Lieutenant General Lin was outside the cave a few days ago, he did not directly kill the evil-doing group of victims, but instead arrested them and let the victims vent their anger.
It is not benevolent and righteous, but in troubled times it is necessary to use heavy codes.
They were not facing troubled times now, but the situation in front of them was very dangerous to them. If they had not suppressed the people and victims with heavy blows at that time, they would not have been able to escape safely on the road ahead.
"There was really no hope at that time. All the old people in the village found a tree with their waistbands and hanged themselves. Only a bunch of children were left."
Those people originally wanted to take the children with them, but the village chief told them to run away, so they escaped.
But what's the use?
With no money or food, a group of children as young as one or two years old and as old as fourteen or fifteen, where else can they go?
