Chapter 332: Blood Splattered on the Goddess River
Chapter 332 Blood Splattered on the Goddess River
(1)
How many days have we spent like this? Three days, five days, ten days, half a month, or has it been half a year? Life in a besieged city is undoubtedly extremely painful.
In order to ensure that the food will not be exhausted in advance, the aristocratic families who are the face of Yuyi Town must set an example and lead everyone to save food and clothing. If there is a slight slack, there is no need for the enemy to invade the city. Once a rebellion breaks out in the city, it will be enough to overturn everything.
Among them, the Yuyi Zhao family’s approach was the most extreme. The head of the family, Zhao Wei, seemed to be determined to break the bank and donated his own granary for free. At the same time, he ordered everyone in the Zhao family to obey the principle of "wherever there is a strong need, food will be distributed."
——Send wine and meat to the soldiers on the front line, guards, and hard-working workers, and those who are not involved in fighting and construction should be given bland food that is enough to satisfy their hunger.
On the streets, the bustling vendors and footmen seemed to have never existed. The small shops that used to sell wine and meat had no choice but to close down due to the supply of goods being cut off. The Tavern Street, which had always been the most prosperous, also became dead, with only a few drunkards wandering here.
.
Now that the Zhao family has sworn to live and die with Yuyi Town, the remaining rich and wealthy people cannot escape. Even if they are just pretending, they must make themselves look thin due to hunger, so as not to fall into the trap.
Criticism.
In addition, living in a besieged city is like having an executioner with a butcher's knife hanging over your head all the time, leaving you with no peace for a moment.
All the things that are supposed to make people happy, the happy time will always become short and precious; all the things that are disgusting and fearful, the time they stay in people's hearts will increase exponentially. But just now
At this time, the coalition forces, which had been unable to attack for a long time, began to use heart-attack strategies.
During the day, the Heba brothers and sisters from the west commanded catapults to throw cattle carcasses that died of disease, as well as the bodies of women and men who died in horrific conditions into Yuyi Town at regular intervals. They had no clear target.
It is impossible to predict where the body will fall.
There will be no impact if the body falls on the street, but if it hits people's homes, it will inevitably cause a small-scale panic. In this way, day after day, everyone will become frightened, afraid that they are under the eaves, themselves
On the road, when you are doing something, you will suddenly encounter unexpected disasters.
At night, the coalition forces of He Batao and Rouran in the north would set up bonfires and sing, dance and have fun all night long. They would sing "Celege", eat barbecue, and drink goat's milk wine, feeling very at ease.
They raised flags and took turns beating drums, trying to convey this melancholy sound to the ears of everyone in Yuyi Town, and then shouted to them loudly: "Surrender, we will not kill the prisoners!"
The guards who were eating the food provided by the people in the town heard this, and because they did not want to betray the trust they owed others, they would turn a deaf ear to these slanderous words. However, there was no guarantee that some people would not be shaken in will, be fooled by this extravagant voice, and change their minds.
The mind becomes weak and the spirit becomes depressed.
With such a shortage of food and being besieged on all sides, it was only a matter of the length of time that Yuyi Town was captured by the coalition forces. During this period, it was an extremely long day and night for the people of Yuyi Town.
Under the control of agents Su Qing and her younger sister, Yuyi Academy often sends its disciples everywhere to help people affected by disasters.
Those who have achieved some success in light-weight kung fu will serve as scouts and are sent to the front line to submit intelligence. Those who have achieved medical skills will follow Mr. Tao Wuyong to practice medicine everywhere. Those who are well-written and well-written will set up platforms in the streets and alleys to give speeches and call on everyone to unite.
Consistent.
Everyone was performing their duties, and such vitality once gave Zhao Xiaomei some hope after witnessing all this. Until one morning, a loud bang hit her boudoir, followed by a stench of rotten flesh that rushed into her nostrils.
The little girl looked at the pile of rotten flesh on the ground in disbelief. The bones were so distorted that she was afraid to confirm that the corpse in front of her was actually a woman.
Most of this woman's breasts were cut off, and her limbs were tied together to resemble a ball. Her face was completely unrecognizable because it was smashed straight to the ground. The little girl only saw an eyeball falling out and didn't dare to continue thinking about it.
"Someone is coming! Someone is coming!" She shouted eagerly: "Prepare horses and chariots, I want to get out of here!"
Zhao Xiaomei should have stayed at home and stayed away from the war, but this corpse suddenly expelled her from her beautiful fantasy. She panicked and ran away. She didn't even have time to pack up her makeup and packed it with her wherever she went.
Scroll. It happened that the Zhao family and his son were out on business that day, so the younger sister had an excuse to leave home and return to Yuyi Academy.
I recall that my father and brother forced my little sister to return home because they were worried about her personal safety. However, they would not tell her that no place in Yuyi Town was safe anymore. If they had not seen with their own eyes the tragedy caused by wars and disasters,
, she may always feel that she can face all this calmly and calmly.
When she arrived at the academy, she went straight to the room where she usually stayed and rummaged through the cabinets, and hurriedly pulled out a small book filled with densely written words - these were articles she had written in her spare time, all based on oral
The stories passed down from hand to hand, the facts seen with one's own eyes, were written out of sudden inspiration.
She flipped through the article about Bai Feng, and when she saw such childish writing, she couldn't help but laugh at herself: "Do you really exist?"
Compared to the shocking corpse, at this moment, the story of the young swordsman was as illusory as a legend, even though it was a story written by Zhao Xiaomei herself.
"Of course, didn't you see this with your own eyes?" A frivolous middle-aged man appeared on the window sill and continued: "Miss Zhao, what happened to you again?"
"Su Qing?" The little girl picked up the little book and was about to hide it, and replied: "How do you know!"
"I took a few sneak peeks while you were away." Su Qing jumped off the window sill in an extremely exaggerated manner, pretending to be relaxed and smoothing his beard, and replied: "I didn't expect that I would be so impressive in the eyes of Miss Zhao.
Disciple."
"Aren't you? Well, a slut who was abandoned by his wife can be regarded as karma!" The younger sister was instigated by Su Qing and became very arrogant, but after a moment, her expression dimmed.
"Bai Shaoxia, will he come back..."
Su Qing lamented and said earnestly: "I don't know either. Maybe someone else has found a good place to live in seclusion. I don't know."
"You are talking nonsense, he is not that kind of person!" Zhao Xiaomei's eyes widened with anger, and she added: "I wouldn't be surprised if you did such a thing."
Su Qing laughed and said: "Miss Zhao, Miss Zhao, little sister! Then you are really mistaken. I, Su Qing, will only give up and continue to pursue gold unless my legs are disabled and I can no longer walk."
Silver jewelry, beauty Hu Ji!"
"Shameless!" As soon as the little girl cursed, her tears suddenly flowed down uncontrollably. She seemed to regard Su Qing as someone to confide in, and said, "Actually, I'm really scared. If Bai Shaoxia really doesn't come back, I...
Will I become one of those... Su Qing, if I am captured by the enemy, please take my life."
"Then it depends on whether you will frequently mention Xiang Chuchu's affairs in front of others in the future." Su Qing had no intention of comforting the other party, but instead tempted the little sister to make long-term plans, saying only: "If you don't comply,
I told people everywhere that you wanted to have a romantic relationship with that guy Bai Feng."
"You!" Zhao Xiaomei really didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "I shouldn't talk to you."
After speaking, the little sister took the small book and hid it in her chest, and walked out angrily. After that, she stayed in the academy temporarily for two days, often staying with Ajuan. There were not many women in the academy, so they two
Mainly responsible for taking care of the daily life of that crazy junior sister with tiger eyes.
With other things on her mind, the younger sister's mood gradually recovered a lot. Although the thought of the corpse in the boudoir was still vivid in her mind, she no longer felt so panicked.
In the academy, she could see more things related to this war, including of course the latest news from the front line.
