Chapter 88 0087: The refugees completely rioted!
"what…"

A soldier guarding the city yawned, stretched, twisted his aching body, and looked down at the city while holding his breath.

In the dim sky, he could only see that the refugees were still uneasy and in a mess, but he was too lazy to look at them.

The soldiers on the city wall just thought that the refugees were just fighting over the pitiful trash that they all looked down upon.

This situation has been going on since the refugees besieged the city. They have long been accustomed to it. What they are not used to is still the stench.

"Lao Wang, I heard your son is sick, how is he?" The sleepy soldier chatted with his colleague a few meters away, hoping to cheer himself up through chatting.

The soldier called Lao Wang had a flushed face. He turned his head away with some discomfort and responded slightly weakly:

"It's OK. I'll take him to see a doctor after we change shifts. Brother Li, I have to take a day off tonight. I don't know if my boss will allow it."

"I don't think so. The leader said that many brothers had heat stroke or cold and had to rest. We are short of manpower."

When Lao Wang heard this, his heart sank. Did he catch a cold too? Why was he feeling so hot and uncomfortable? But if he fell down, I was afraid that everyone in my family would starve.

Thinking of this, Lao Wang gave up the idea of ​​taking a day off and continued to hold on.

As the sky brightened, the people who were supposed to take over their shifts took their positions, reported their situations, and prepared to leave.

At the west gate of the city, a team of ten soldiers with knives arrived at the gate. Four of them walked out, and when the time came, they simultaneously opened the heavy city gate.

Behind them were twenty or so people or carriages preparing to leave the city.

As the gate opened, a strong stench hit them in the face, causing all ten soldiers to hold their breath.

This is not the first time this has happened to them.

The ten men got ready, drew their swords and formed a battle array, with five on each side walking out.

This is not the first time they have done this.

There are always people who don't know how to live or die and want to rush into the county town when the gate is open. Only by killing a few of them to deter them can the normal operation of the city gate be guaranteed.

After a few tries, it finally worked normally.

However, this time, although I was already used to it, I was frightened by the situation outside.

Outside the city gate, the moment it opened, a large number of refugees began to gather.

Their eyes were red as they stared at the ten knife-wielding soldiers who opened the door.

Among the noisy crowd of refugees, there was a skinny woman with disheveled hair, emitting a foul odor. She was hurriedly carrying a child who was also skinny but had a red face to the city gate, and knelt down in front of the soldiers guarding the city.

Ignoring the soldiers' vigilance of drawing their swords, the woman opened her cracked lips and howled in a hoarse and dry voice:

"Sir! Please save my child. He has a fever. Please let us go to the city to see a doctor!"

As he said this, he began to kowtow.

When the soldiers heard that it was someone with a high fever, their faces suddenly changed and they quickly took a few steps back.

Outside, the refugees, who looked like mummies, were gathered at a distance.

Some people gathered in the crowd holding stones, looking at the soldiers with crazy eyes, as if they were waiting for something.

Seeing this, the soldiers immediately drew their swords and pointed them at the crowd, shouting:
"Everyone, scatter! Scatter!"

The crowd immediately took a step back.

As a result, a soldier kicked the woman away, drew his sword and shouted angrily: "Your son is fine. If you don't leave, don't blame us for killing you first and asking for your permission later!"

Suddenly, a voice rang out from the crowd:
"Don't listen to their nonsense! It's a plague!! There's a plague here, and the magistrate doesn't care about our lives!!"

Hearing these two words, everyone trembled and instantly became terrified. They had heard some news last night. They were already worried, and now that it was said like this, those who were originally skeptical immediately believed it.

"Everyone, didn't you see that those soldiers didn't dare to approach us? It's because we have all been infected with the plague! We are about to die!!" Outside, more and more refugees gathered around.

The same situation also occurs at the other three city gate locations!

There were almost always one or two sick refugees kneeling and crying in front of the city gate.

"That's right, they knew we had the plague but they didn't care about us. They just wanted us to die outside!"

"We don't want to die! We want to live!"

"The county has medicine! Food and water!! These can save our lives! Let us in!!"

Behind the soldiers, those who were preparing to leave the city began to worry as they heard the public outcry outside.

Some people were afraid of something happening and turned around and went back.

"Yang'er, it's not a good time to go out now."

Among them, Cheng Zongyang and Cheng Chen, who were dressed in tattered farmers' clothes, looked outside with some vigilance.

Cheng Zongyang said solemnly, "It seems that someone knows about the plague, and the news has spread outside the city, so these refugees can no longer be suppressed."

He thought about it, then stood on tiptoe to look outside at the groups of refugees that were surrounding him, and he felt a chill in his heart.

Under the impact of such numbers, even if he was an entry-level warrior, he could not stop these people.

Once pushed down, they would probably be trampled and seriously injured.

Cheng Zongyang immediately took his second aunt and quickly retreated from the city gate.

However, just as he was retreating, a roar suddenly erupted from outside the city, followed by a large number of fist-sized stones smashing into the city!
"Kill them. There is medicine, food and water in the city!"

"Let us die, then we will all die together!!"

"I don't want to die! I want to live! I want to live!!"

……

Instantly, the riot at the city gate broke out! A riot broke out without any warning!
Cheng Zongyang's face changed, and Cheng Chen's face turned even paler as she was dragged away by her nephew.

The refugees completely rioted!
Ten soldiers with knives were completely unable to stop the riot of all the refugees. Even if they killed some people, it would be useless!
Countless fist-sized stones flew towards them, hitting them and causing severe pain all over their bodies and bleeding heads.

This forced them to retreat, shouting:

"Close the city gate!"

"Inform the county lord!"

"Hurry up and support!!"

Following the roar of commands, several of them endured the pain in their bodies and the bleeding heads and quickly went in to close the door.

Several other people brandished their knives and continued to hack and kill the refugees who were rushing towards them!

At the same time, the soldiers on the city wall who had just changed their posts and had not had time to leave also rushed down with knives and guns.

However, these refugees had all been aroused to anger, and the last string of resistance was broken by the emergence of the plague!
If they could survive, they would never risk their lives, but the emergence of the plague meant that they had no way out! They had no idea of ​​just getting by, surviving, and living from hand to mouth.

All the soldiers holding knives were hit on the head and blood was flowing. One soldier was even hit on the head by more than a dozen stones in succession and fell to the ground unconscious.

The scenes of fear, retreating, and shouting aroused another instinct in the refugees' hearts - fighting!

From a biological perspective, there is no difference between humans and animals. Animals fight for survival and for food! Humans also fight for survival and food.

The roars, shouts and tragic bloody scenes around them completely aroused this instinct in the hearts of all the refugees.
