Chapter 266: Sin
But this situation can't last long at all, you know, the number of refugees is not a star, and in the tens of thousands of terrifying numbers, not to mention the grass roots, and wild stems can bring very little nutrients, these meager nutrients are not enough to feed the stomach, not to mention, even the number of these grass roots, wild stems, is not endless.
As early as half a month ago, the entire land inside and outside Weinan was turned over by these refugees, and it was really the place where the refugees passed, there was no grass, and there was no trace of any living creatures on the ground.
In order to survive, those refugees still refuse to let go of the possibility of survival, but even if there is an occasional harvest, the little food they get can be ignored compared to the needs of the refugees.
Hunger has become a lingering shadow over everyone.
At the time of life and death, all the constraints on their bodies are left behind by them, and they can do anything to survive in order to survive.
As for the government's rescue, they may have looked forward to it at the beginning, but what they were waiting for was infinite discouragement, as well as resentment against the Yanbei Dynasty, when the disaster had not yet happened, those dog officials would only loot the people's fat and ointment, completely ignoring their lives and deaths, fortunately, with the remaining grain after being looted, they could barely survive.
They are just ordinary people, they have never asked for anything, fame and fortune, after all, it is still something that a very small number of people pursue, but as long as they can barely survive, they will not have the idea of rebellion and ignoring the law, and the vast majority of people have such thoughts.
The kind of people who are born rebellious, dissatisfied with the status quo, and ambitious are still very few after all, and even none of them exist.
But now that they have lost even the most basic of survival, is it necessary for them to take care of that ridiculous testimony?
There is a good saying, the government forces the people to rebel, and the people have to rebel.
This is the truest portrayal of the hearts of these people.
With the passage of time, more and more people began to have the idea of rebellion in their hearts, and even many people have begun to take action for this, the previous attack on the gate of the government is the most direct method, but although they have a numerical advantage, but in essence, they are still defenseless people, and even in a hungry state, they can exert very little combat effectiveness.
Although the government only has hundreds of officials, it has the barrier of the government that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, plus they are elite, and even there are many warriors among the officers and soldiers, if you talk about personal combat effectiveness, they are dozens of times higher than those refugees, and under the huge disparity between the two sides, those refugees are even difficult to break through the door of the government.
Speaking of which, it is necessary to mention the structure of the Weinan Mansion, the Mansion, and the ordinary Mansion has a great difference, behind the gate of the Mansion, there is a passage five or six long, three or four zhang wide, after passing through this narrow passage, you can officially enter the Mansion, the Mansion, at the beginning, is not owned by the government, here is a local mansion, this mansion is easy to defend and difficult to attack, on both sides of the passage, are four or five feet high walls, they only need to be on both sides of the wall, respectively, there are archers, those people do not have siege equipment, once someone enters the aisle, it is tantamount to a live target。
In order to lure those refugees in, at the beginning, the prefect of Weinan ordered all the officials to be withdrawn to the interior of the government, as long as they guarded the inner door of the government, then they could be invincible.
In the government, there is still a lot of grain and grass, enough for hundreds of them to support a year and a half, as for weapons and arrows, there are more stocks in the government, but the government only has some advantages on the surface, but in fact it has the most fatal disadvantage.
Those refugees attacked the government several times in succession, it can be said that the losses are heavy, the corpses of the refugees are almost filling the narrow aisle, and then look at the government side, the loss is not very large, after suffering several attacks by the refugees, has only lost more than a dozen people, but things are far from being as simple as it seems on the surface, if this predicament is not improved, then the situation of the government is not optimistic.
After all, the government is extremely short of available people, this is the most fatal wound, don't look at the government in dealing with those refugees, on the surface, it is at ease, in fact, as time goes by, even the government is a little stretched, hundreds of officers and soldiers' energy, after all, is still limited, as long as those refugees keep attacking, even if it only lasts for seven or eight days, they can consume these hundreds of officers and soldiers alive, even if these officers and soldiers are still stubbornly resisting, those refugees can also step on the corpses of their companions, climb the four or five zhang high wall。
In this way, it also means the destruction of the government, the entire Weinan City, only the government still has a large amount of grain and grass, this is a well-known thing, in order to survive, most people will choose to rush forward without hesitation, if they cower, then the fate that awaits them is to die of famine, anyway, it is death horizontally and vertically, it is better to die freely, and the government that has oppressed them for several years will be completely destroyed, in addition, they can also get the hope of living.
Fortunately, those refugees did not have this consciousness of returning to death, and what the government had been worried about did not happen, and after attacking several times, those refugees seemed to be frightened and put aside the idea of attacking the government for the time being.
These days, without the deterrence of the government, the entire Weinan City is full of blood, and almost every inch of land is flowing with endless evil.
Compared with the young and strong, those old and weak women and children obviously do not have the ability to survive, they do not have the ability to compete for food, so this part of them is the most vulnerable group of victims of the disaster.
As for the people in the city who already had food, and even the wealthy people with a lot of wealth, they were ruthlessly plundered by those refugees.
Soon, they will also become new refugees, and this situation is playing out in different places almost all the time, in short, the strong robbing the weak.
The entire Weinan City is starving, and they have not thought about leaving Weinan City, but after leaving Weinan City, the situation at that time may not be much better than now, or even worse.
