Chapter 201: Riot
Because she was defenseless, Sizhen was caught off guard, and the dagger in Nizi's hand stabbed into her lower abdomen, but the knee-jerk reaction made her abdomen tighten, and then she flew out and kicked Nizi in the chin, kicking her to the ground and spurting out a mouthful of blood. γFengyun Reading Network. γ
The lark and the magpie reacted, and immediately kicked Nizi one violently, and the other drew a long sword and protected Sizhen.
Sizhen covered her lower abdomen with her hand and said coldly, "Don't kill her yet." β
"Murder! The officials are going to kill people! Fellow villagers, brothers, this official doesn't even let go of children, what are you waiting for? If you wait any longer, you will die! Suddenly, a shout came from the side, and then, more than a dozen people rushed out from the back of the room next to him.
"Yes, kill, fight with them, slaughter that little lady, it's her, refuse to send us more food, fight!"
"Fight! Kill! β
The men were armed with sticks, brooms, shovels, and the like, and rushed up as they shouted, and they gritted their teeth and glared at each other, revealing a sense of ruthlessness, and a hint of relief in the face of death...... They shouted and pounced without the slightest hesitation.
At the same time, the barracks doors opened, and more refugees with sticks and stones rushed in.
Si Zhen and Skylark and the others pulled out the swords on their sides, and Si Zhen shouted: "You guys stop, and then rush forward, Hugh blames the sword for having no eyes." β
However, those people were not afraid of death, although Sizhen cut down a few on the ground with the back of his sword, but those people still rushed up, even the few who fell to the ground, they also struggled to get up, and rushed over, like bloodshed and lost their lives, with a kind of madness of desperate fighting.
"Kill, kill, kill the official, and you will have food to eat!" A man rushed up brandishing a long stick.
"If it weren't for the fact that their Kong family lowered the Manchu Tartars back then, where would we be so miserable!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill! "Shouting more and more excitedly.
Wave after wave, some refugees were still a little wait-and-see, but they were taken by the people next to them, and saw that Sizhen was surrounded by two larks and magpies, so they pounced on them regardless of life or death.
Two fists are invincible to four hands, and Sizhen also ordered a few larks to try not to kill people, so they were gradually surrounded by those refugees.
Seeing the blood dripping down from Sizhen's lower abdomen, the lark gritted his teeth: "Princess, they want your life, you still take care of them, the slave doesn't care, even if you punish them in the future, you have to kill a few to make them afraid." β
She swung her sword and rushed forward, and the sword light swept up, and the first few fell to the ground, blood splashing everywhere, which stopped the attack of the refugees.
But soon, someone shouted among the refugees: "Kill, don't be afraid, villagers, hit them with stones......"
With the man's words, some of the refugees with stones in their hands threw them directly at the four Zhen and them, although they dodged left and right, and used their swords to turn some stones back and hurt a few refugees, but the magpie was still hit on the forehead, fell to the ground, and the lark was hit several times.
At the critical moment, the female soldiers in the barracks rushed over from the training ground, before, they heard the movement and wanted to rush over, but they found that the door was locked, and when they broke out, they found that the person who was guarding the armory had been killed, and a bunch of refugees were dragging weapons out there.
The regular army came, armed with swords, guns, swords, and clubs, and although the refugees were numerous, they were finally suppressed under the joint efforts of the female soldiers.
"What the hell is going on?" Sun Yanling, who rushed over by Wen Xun, had an unusually ugly face, this refugee riot was not only sudden but also fierce, not only Sizhen, Magpie, and Skylark were injured, but the female soldiers also died two, and more than a dozen were injured, and the refugees were even more dead and wounded, if there was no one to instruct them, it would be impossible to rob the barracks in a planned way, even if they couldn't survive, they should have started at the big families, and they attacked the barracks, and they simply didn't know whether they were alive or dead.
"I don't know." Sizhen was lying on the bed, her lips were white, Nizi was young after all, but she had learned some three-legged cat kung fu on weekdays, and the stab Sizhen avoided it again, and the stab was not deep, but she was pregnant, but because of this sting, she had a miscarriage and could only rest in bed.
Thinking that Sizhen slipped for this, lost their child, and may not even be able to get pregnant again, Sun Yanling was so angry that he wanted to kill, but he was afraid that Sizhen would be even more sad about it, so he could only hold her hand and forcibly suppress his anger and said: "I suspect that this riot was instigated by someone behind the scenes, and moreover, it was aimed at you." Otherwise, who has the courage to do it in the barracks? β
Sizhen sighed slightly: "It's a pity, among those people who were arrested, there were no real masters, at that time, it was clear that someone took my life by taking advantage of the refugee riot, and several of them were killed in front of me, if I didn't see the right one, I killed two, I was afraid that they would be able to succeed at that time." No matter who is taking advantage of the refugees to riot, it shows that their intentions are sinister, looking at the situation today, they are thinking that after taking advantage of the chaos to kill me, they will have weapons in their hands to make a big mess in Guilin, and then either someone will come forward to suppress it, or the imperial court will send troops to quell the chaos......"
"No matter what the outcome, as long as Guilin is in chaos, sooner or later the feudal domain will fall into their hands. Erlang, you have to be careful, I'm afraid this matter is not over yet! β
"I know, you...... Recuperate with peace of mind! However, this incident must be dealt with strictly, otherwise those refugees think that they will be forgiven for committing such a serious crime, and they will be used for failure to do so in the future. You sleep for a while, and I'll go see how their interrogation is going in Dongping. β
Sizhen wanted to say something, opened her mouth, but didn't say it, but when she saw that Sun Yanling was about to walk out of the door, she couldn't hold back, and said softly: "By the way, that Nizi, you ...... What do you want to do? β
"What else can be done? Killed, of course. Sun Yanling said hatefully, "You treat her well, she actually did such an ungrateful and inferior thing to pigs and dogs, is it still impossible to leave her in the world?" β
"I know this, but she is also bewitched, and we don't have to spare the leader, but Nizi...... She's still a child! β
"Kid? If it weren't for her, would you have been hurt? Will our children be lost? Sun Yanling finally couldn't help it and shouted, "You pity her for being a child, but don't you have to bear the consequences if the child does something wrong?" If that's the case, what will you do next time they come and kill us with a whole bunch of half-grown children? If you weren't too merciful, why would there be a catastrophe today? β
"If it weren't for the fact that they underestimated your strength this time, and the female soldiers came to the rescue in time, do you think you would be able to get out of the way? Those refugees, in the past, did not do less things to steal chickens and dogs, if they were killed at the beginning, they may not have the courage to dare to make trouble today, people are good at being bullied, horses are good at riding, chastity, this time, you can't be soft-hearted, in troubled times, you have to use heavy codes, that Nizi must be killed, and moreover, you have to kill in public, in order to set an example! β
After a pause, Sun Yanling said again: "Not only that Nizi, but in this refugee riot, those who led the troubles and took the lead in the rebellion, as well as those who were secretly instigated and spread falsehoods, after being verified, they will all be pulled out and killed!" β
"Is it too much for the officials to force the people to rebel, and kill them all?" Sizhen knew that Sun Yanling was sad for the child they lost, and her heart was like a knife, but she hesitated when she thought that so many people would die because of this, "The leaders should be dealt with, but those refugees are really too bitter, if they don't feel that there is no way to live and are bewitched by others, this time it will not be ...... but those who spread falsehood are ...... Sin does not lead unto death. β
"Before, the government said that it would allocate money and food, although we had to wait, but we didn't completely ignore it, and even gave them military food to eat, what else? Of course, it's not enough to just talk about it in private, but those who have ulterior motives, and even take the initiative to spread the word that the imperial court will not provide disaster relief, we must punish them severely regardless of their lives or deaths! I know you have a good heart, but look at it, the soldiers we trained did not die on the battlefield, but were killed by those refugees, is it worth it? Other state capitals, for their own political achievements, many cities do not let those refugees enter, so as not to affect the security of the city, but what about us, not to mention accepting those refugees into the city, and doing everything possible to make up money for porridge, for this, how many nobles have you offended in the city? β
"Those refugees are suffering, but have they ever thought that if we hadn't opened the city to take them in, they would have starved to death and froze to death, why didn't they dare to resist all the way, but they dared to make trouble again and again in Guilin City, before the porridge was robbed, the chickens and dogs were just thieves, this time, they actually did it to you!"
The more Sun Yanling spoke, the more angry he became: "Although someone is secretly instigating, if they don't think we are weak and can be bullied, they may not have such courage." No matter what, they must be killed, so that they don't dare to make trouble anymore, and if they are scared and frightened, they will naturally be able to confess the mastermind behind the scenes. β
Sizhen listened, didn't speak for a while, and muttered for a while, she said: "I'm not against killing, those who provoke the head should be killed, but according to what you say, they are afraid of killing, so how much do you have to kill?" I'm afraid three or five won't work, right? Erlang, they are the people of the Qing Dynasty, they have left their hometowns, and they are already very pitiful when they are displaced, so if we do this, won't we force them to rebel? This matter must be considered in the long run. β
"Nope." Sun Yanling categorically vetoed, "If they don't kill, they are afraid, but they don't know that there will be no next time, just to let them know that they are powerful, and they don't dare to make trouble again, otherwise, they will walk on the street and sleep in bed in the future, but I am afraid that it will not be safe." Don't say anything else, that Nizi, you gave her money, helped her bury her mother, and got her an errand, but what about her? What did she do to you? A wolf-hearted person like this should let her know that our knives are not vegetarians! ββ
