Chapter 154: Mutation Four

Desperate and angry people piled up at the gates of the city, crying and screaming: "Open the door!"

Those who can't squeeze through the door slap the hard wall: "Open the door!"

In the distance, there were still people running to the city gates......

The guards gathered together with their knives in their hands, surrounding Li Yi, Kong Wen and others in a circle behind them, nervously watching the crowd of people running around them.

Their small circle of people is like an island in the crowd, a boat fluttering in the wind and waves.

Kong Wen cried: "Oh my God, how can this be!"

How did the case of embezzlement and relief of food, which was originally being properly interrogated, become like this?

Li Yi said: "I was used by the spies! The victims were already hungry and wanted to go crazy, but as soon as they shouted like this, they all went crazy and wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to enter the city! Even if they didn't have this thought, they went crazy with the people!"

Qin Nuan was silent, angry and desperate crowd, where would they still think of the original purpose of the incident now? In the struggle of life and death for more than half a month, how many of them could still be sober-minded?

They are left with only the simplest and most primitive desire: to go to the city!

She glanced at Lu Chang, if no one was corrupt, the victims were not so hungry and desperate, and they would not have reached this level!

How can this man be so greedy and bold!

Kong Wen said: "County Lord, what now?"

The city gate has been closed, and they can't enter the city, so where are the officials he brought with him useful? But Li Yi has a group of fierce guards around him.

At this time, someone shouted: "Kill the dog officer!"

"Kill the dog officer to get revenge! We won't survive anyway!"

"Kill the dog officer, take revenge!"

The crowd, having lost their minds, turned their heads and gathered in this direction.

The Jin Wuwei waved their steel knives and shouted, "Whoever dares to approach will be killed on the spot!"

"Stand back, or you'll be killed!"

"Stand back!"

The people in the front row facing Xueliang's blade were still a little scared, and they stopped moving forward for a while, but the people behind were rushing forward, so the encirclement was still shrinking.

Li Yi ordered: "Biography: Whoever makes any more disturbances and shouts will be a rebellion!"

So Cheng Jun and Xue Liangbi led everyone to shout in unison: "Stop!

"Stop! Whoever moves is a rebel!"

More than a hundred people shouted in unison, which was still somewhat intimidating, and the crowd slowly stopped.

Still people shouted: "Why don't you check the grain? Why do you shield the dog officer!"

"We're going to check the grain!"

"Check the grain!"

One shouted, several echoed, and then it became a thousand shouts.

"Who said they wouldn't check!" Ding Yin shouted.

The crowd was slightly quiet, and continued to shout chaotically, "check the grain", "check the grain!" and "check the grain......

It is necessary to open the city gate to check the grain, but in the current situation, it is resolutely impossible to open the city gate.

The crowd scrambled forward again.

Cheng Jun and Xue Liangbi looked back at Li Yi, their eyes were very clear and urgent: "Do you want to cut people?"

Li Yi's face turned pale, but he didn't give an order.

Looking at the smaller and smaller encirclement, Qin Nuan nervously grabbed a small corner of Li Yi's clothes, for fear that she would open her mouth and order the killing.

After all, these people are too pathetic!

If he really did it, the well-equipped Jin Wuwei would naturally deal with these unarmed victims like chopping melons and vegetables, and it would inevitably be a river of blood, and there would be two possible results in the end: one was that after cutting down some people, the rest of the people would be frightened and disperse; the other was that the victims were enraged and attacked in groups, although they were weak, but the number was afraid that there were 20,000, and these hundred or so people would be easily drowned.

Of course, the latter is more likely, not to mention that these victims have lost their minds, not to mention that there are still people who are deliberately inciting them.

Yang Yun suddenly said in a loud voice: "County Lord, tell them how the embankment broke in Sizhou!"

Li Yi raised his eyebrows and said to Ding Yin: "Tell them!"

It's a great way to divert your attention!

The embankment burst in Sizhou, and the imperial court has determined that the embankment was destroyed by man, but these victims were already on the way to escape at that time, struggling on the line of life and death, where would they know the news.

Ding Yinlang said: "Fellow villagers, do you know how Sizhou broke the embankment?"

Sure enough, the noise of the crowd was quiet, homes were destroyed, relatives were lost, and countless people were buried underwater...... This is the most heart-rending scene of all.

Ding Yin said: "In fact, it was ruined!"

Man-made destruction!

I thought it was a natural disaster, but I didn't expect it to be a man-made disaster!

Suddenly, the crowd sprinkled a handful of salt in a pot of boiling oil and roared angrily.

There are all kinds of screaming and scolding: from black-hearted and rotten liver beasts to the eighteenth layer of hell, all the scolding words can be heard here, and some people hiss and cry bitterly while scolding......

There was also a faint sound of "nonsense" among them, but it was completely drowned in the sound of anger, and no one paid attention.

"The court found out that it was the spies sent by the traitors in the south who destroyed the embankment!

Ding Yinlanglang's voice overshadowed all the noise: "So, check the grain today, you must not mess around, the traitors over there will wait for the chaos here to come! You didn't drown in the water, don't die under the traitor's knife!"

At that moment, the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the distance to the east, as if it were like thunder.

The crowd suddenly panicked, and some people shouted "The traitor is coming!" and "The traitor is coming!"

The panicked crowd immediately began to scatter and flee, but because it had been so crowded before, it was huddled together, and some people were squeezed down, trampled, and there were panicked cries and cries everywhere......

Ding Yin was furious and shouted: "Don't run around! It's not a traitor! It's a Yangzhou soldier!"

Li Yi's face turned blue with anger, if Ding Yin didn't say the latter sentence, he wouldn't have caused such panic and turmoil!

Although he had good intentions, this time was too coincidental!

Hundreds of guards also shouted in unison under Li Yi's order: "Silence! Silence! Not a traitor!"

After shouting for a long time, the panicked crowd slowly calmed down, but after a while, I don't know how many people were injured or even trampled to death.

The cavalry in the distance soon approached, and the banner raised in front of them was the word "Jingwei", and a banner decorated with multicolored feathers, embroidered with a small sharp-billed bird with red feathers, and two long tail feathers.

Kong Wen cried with joy when he saw the flag, grabbed Mo Wenzhen's arm and said, "Reinforcements are coming! Reinforcements are coming! I didn't expect the county lord's 'Jingwei Battalion' to come!"

Mo Wenzhen also wiped away tears in surprise, he was so scared today that he might be torn to pieces by the crowd at any time.

As the group approached, they immediately separated with the banner waved in the hands of the silver-armored general, and surrounded the victims in an arc.

Although they were much smaller in number than the victims, they were all in bright armor, and their long swords were cold, and they all rode tall horses, all holding longbows in their hands, and wound their arrows, facing the crowd below-
