In Taiyuan Fucheng, Wang Ruyi, who was trapped in the local area, was also a little silent. As the team walked through the street market, which looked extremely dirty and chaotic; and the crowds of all kinds of dishes were almost flooded in the neighborhood, and you could see Every place under the eaves and walls.
Since the beginning of winter, there have been many refugees and displaced people gathered in Beidu City to avoid the war. These days, hundreds of thousands of people have been brought in from Taiyuan Prefecture. There is no place to shelter, and many people sleep on the street. Under the eaves on both sides, they squeezed into a pile for fear of freezing to death.
They were trembling in the biting cold wind, groaning, complaining, and sighing. The women whispered to God, weeping in sorrow. The children shrank into a ball in the arms of their mothers, crying and crying cold and hungry, tearing the adult's heart with a loud voice.
But when the patrol soldiers sent by the North Capital City Patrol Division approached, they temporarily endured and dared not say anything. However, since the beginning of martial law in Beidu, large numbers of refugees have died every day, and the cold weather has increased with the dripping water and ice.
Although the imperial court has porridge factories in the three outer cities, it cannot change the fact that the mortality rate is getting higher and higher, especially the deaths of the elderly and children. The northeast wind was blowing last night and it was terribly cold. Who knows how many large and small corpses will be carried away tomorrow morning
Soon Wang Ruyi’s team came and stopped at a remote alley; because in the depths of the alley, under the broken wall, the people who had already been frozen to death were packed full of people; the solidified green ash. There was also a strange smile on his face, as if he had gained some relief from a sleep that couldn't wake up.
The next moment, in this temporary service team, there was a kind of conditioned vomiting again. Those were young folks who had just been recruited to join, but the old folks who were already commonplace were obviously dull and numb. Stepped forward, began to pull these stiff frozen corpses.
And then piled up the big pallets that were pushed by one by one, and in the process, those civilians who have been used to doing this kind of thing, even stretched out their hands and fumbled on the dead, in order to search for possible existence. Small objects.
Although the probability of obtaining valuable objects is very small, it is also a potential input for their cleaning teams. Then, after being sent to a special place? The clothes on these corpses will be stripped off, and then handed over to the remaining living people to use them again.
And among the street crowds who were frozen to death? Not only the migrants and refugees from outside, but also the local people who were driven out of their homes and displaced. The reason is very simple. In order to relocate the Daibei clan tribes who have retreated to the city for refuge, allowing them to occupy the residents' homes and think that it has become a normal state.
Therefore, these people who were forced out of their homes and howled on the streets in hunger and cold? Not the most miserable; because? Many people resisted this process, not only lost their lives, but also occupied their wives and daughters and their families. Property? But there is nowhere to redress.
Of course, Wang Ruyi, one of the outsiders who had been coerced from here, could avoid becoming one of these street members, and he could also serve as the leader of the Qingdao team. But it is still thanks to his last bit of family legacy as a son of the Wang family, but? He doesn't want such a laborious legacy at all.
Because? Even the prominent reputation and family background of the former kings of Qixian County? The great prestige and the influence of the connections? In front of the violent swords and guns of the Shatuo people, it will only be stronger than a layer of paper window.
Therefore? It’s just a sentence from the King of Jin that clears the wild and strong walls? The huge Wang clan entrenched in Taiyuan Prefecture? More than 20 houses, large and small, will face the result of dilapidated homes; although the clan chiefs want to resist and avoid? Running and mediating to save? But in exchange, dozens of heads were chopped off in one go.
Then, after being requisitioned on the spot and taking away the food, goods, livestock, horses and poultry collected in the family’s houses? There are thousands of young Wangs, along with a larger number of family members, who are also driven by swords and guns. Stepped down on the road to the northern capital;
However, they are not the most miserable. Compared with the many family members accompanied by the family? The homes of other ordinary people in the cities along the way, after all the young and middle-aged people were taken away? The old and weak women and children, who were no longer useful, were left to the possibility. The peace thief returned.
Therefore, it was only a few days after the war that the family of the county, which was on the same level as the king of Jinyang, had lost its land, attached mouth and family property, and it was once in the Taiyuan Mansion. Out of the state of disintegration and separation.
However, Wang Ruyi is slightly more lucky than the children of other races. After all, he has the official qualifications of serving as a county lieutenant for a few months; plus the Jinyang princes who live high in the dynasty in Daming City, and I don't want to get tainted with these common affairs, so I made them cheaper for the children of Qixian family.
As a former member of the prestigious family of prefectures, except for a few upper-class figures who have a relationship with shelter; most people actually fell to relying on the breath and Yu Ze of the distant clan to talk about subsistence and subsistence; This is undoubtedly an ironic result.
But most of them have to need this opportunity to ensure that the family members who have been moved to the city belong to them, so that they will not be wailing and crying like those on the street.
Wang Renshou thought about it this way, and saw a pleated-faced civilian husband, in order to find more objects; he straightly used a pickaxe to cock the arms of a mother and daughter who were holding a deadly warmth to abruptly break. Come on; he really couldn't help but cried out:
"Stop, the deceased is bigger and more decent..."
"Xiao Langjun is kind, and wants to give some dignity to these frostbite; but if my generation is also hungry and cold, who can give me the demeanor? The deceased has passed away, so why not use it outside? Thing, what is it that seeks a livelihood for my survivors?"
Hearing the words, the civilian husband coveted his left and right sides, and then kept laughing in his hands:
Therefore, no one paid any attention to Wang Renshou anymore, and he went straight to pick up the clean corpse and threw it on the flatbed cart; then, the crowds gathered on the wall on the side of the city, After all the things that can be used were gone, they were thrown into the Fen Water flowing through the city.
After being responsible for witnessing and participating (points) in so many human tragic events, Wang Ruyi also became extremely gloomy and completely reticent; however, when they returned to the temporary shelter camp, they heard that many people were full of people. An angry but suppressed atmosphere that dared not speak:
"The meals given in the camp have been reduced again,"
"Originally there were only two meals in the morning and evening, and I also participated in a lot of chaff and sand;
"It's so thin now that people can only scream in their stomachs."
"Aren't there squirrels and crow meat?"
"That's been given to Luo Digging all the time, now the nameless meat in the ghost market has been sold for five hundred dollars..."
After listening to these words, Wang Ruyi looked at the man's husband with yellow muscles and floating eyes on his left side. Then he thought about the two dry cakes with the same impurity that he had sent. Suddenly, there was no appetite or hunger.
Afterwards, he left the camp and came to a mansion in the East City. However, the host of the mansion who was drinking and feasting with vocal music did not intend to see him anymore, just sent him a few packets of leftover pastries.
Then, carrying these packages of incomplete and broken cakes, Wang Renshou did not go back directly; however, he visited several sick people of the same generation. It was the only thing he could do to give these things away.
It's just that when he walked out of the alley among a few children with mouths full of scum, with a look of expectation, he suddenly saw a somewhat familiar figure crossing the street in front of him, and he couldn't help being shocked.
But in Taigu City, which is a frontier of the Taiping Army, tens of miles away from Taiyuan City, there is a different atmosphere and mood. Because, Mi Bao, who has almost never been away from the chief governor, served as an envoy to bring Zhou Huaian's message to the newly defeated Hedong attacking army:
Therefore, in addition to being seriously injured and unable to get up, Ge Congzhou and Yang Shihou, who were upright in their faces, gathered more than a hundred generals and officials, and they all bowed to their knees and received them. He just listened to Mi Bao, who was holding the instructions, and did not look squinted. Talk freely:
"Wang Shang said, the plea has been read; it is very good to be able to conduct enough introspection and sum up the lessons, and it is also the fine tradition that our army has always upheld..."
"But this is not enough. The government has only seen your follow-up remedial and response measures and policies, but has not seen more regulations and plans on how to continue to attack the enemy and target countermeasures and counterattacks."
"The ancients have a cloud, wherever they fall, they will stand up again; as long as they are strong enough in their hearts and good at learning and progressing, admit deficiencies and learn lessons, and improve in time; then any setbacks and failures will only make the next time better. Powerful nourishment."
"Therefore, as long as you are able to dare to do things and become more and more courageous, the Taiping Eight Ways (newly added Jiannan, Longyou, Guanzhong) 15th Road, tens of millions of soldiers and civilians, can become the most solid of your generation. Backing and relying on..."
After receiving these instructions, the formerly depressed and dull morale was given to the generals who were reinvigorated, and after repeated thanks; Mi Bao took out another fire-sealed document, and delivered it to Zheng Jiang Ge from Zhou's hands and calmed down. Road:
"In order to support Hedong's follow-up strategy, the Lord specially ordered me to bring some support personnel and assisting equipment with the team; in order to prevent the Jin army in the northern capital city from resting and recuperating throughout the winter..."
And following Mi Bao's introduction, at the Fenshui Wharf outside Taigu City, as the river surface was about to freeze completely, the last batch of troops and equipment sent by breaking through a large piece of ice floes were also landing one after another.
Among them, there are hordes of knights with horses draped all over their bodies, as well as large and short artillery carts that require several cows and horses to pull; there are many more wearing light cloth armor and asbestos robes, and they are on the chest. The battle engineer sequence of Thunder and Short Pick is crossed on. (End of this chapter)
