Chapter 137 Coming(1/2)
A caravan was driving on the official road leading to Shengshan County, with endless refugee camps on both sides.
In the middle of the caravan, a middle-aged man carrying a halberd and riding a horse looked worriedly at the refugee camps on both sides, his lips and teeth moving slightly:
"Too many"
A young man riding a horse on the side came over and asked in a low voice:
"Xue Tou, what's too much?"
The horses the two of them ride are both of demonic beast blood, tall and handsome, with extremely clear muscle lines.
The middle-aged man glanced sideways at the young man:
"There are too many refugees."
The young man then looked back at the refugees, remained silent for a while, and whispered:
"So, the refugee camp here is indeed much larger than the ones we have seen before, but so what?"
There is deep worry in the middle-aged man's eyes:
"If you are not careful, riots will break out in these refugee camps."
The young man was a little disapproving and pointed to the military camp stationed in the distance:
"There are border troops stationed over there. Looking at the size of the military camp, there are at least a thousand troops, so there is no need to worry about a riot."
The middle-aged man sighed and whispered:
"I'm not worried about Shengshan County, but I'm worried about our caravans."
The young man was stunned for a moment, then his expression turned strange. He looked at the numb refugees and whispered:
"That shouldn't be the case, disturbing official roads is a serious crime."
The middle-aged man shook his head:
"If you can't survive, who cares about this? I hope the inspection by the Imperial Supervisor can quickly evacuate these refugees. If they continue to gather like this, these refugees will not be able to survive, and they may really be robbed."
The young man's eyes flashed, and he slightly tightened his grip on the weapon:
"Well, the scale of the monster tide near the Wanxing Mountains this time is similar."
And before he finished speaking,
A flock of birds suddenly flew out from the rolling forest on one side of the official road.
A huge flock of birds,
It’s so big that it can almost cover the sky!
The flock of birds came and left just as quickly. In a few breaths, they had already passed over the official road and fled towards the territory of Dayan.
Everyone on the official road saw this sudden change, and everything on the official road seemed to have pressed the pause button.
Everyone knows what these birds represent, but no one dares to act rashly when stuck in this position.
And in the midst of all this stillness,
The middle-aged man's hand holding the halberd began to tremble slightly, but he did not look in the direction of the mountains and forests, but looked at the refugee camp:
"The monster is coming, prepare to fight"
The young man came to his senses:
"What?"
The middle-aged man waved his halberd and let out a bang:
"The caravan gathers its formation and prepares for battle!!"
"."
The monster finally breaks through the forest.
As the first monster entered the refugee camp, and as a refugee was buried in the monster's mouth, panic spread uncontrollably!
Horrified screams, piercing whines, and angry yells almost immediately broke out, like a domino being toppled, and chaos quickly spread in the slums on both sides of the official road.
p>
"The monster. The monster is coming!!! Run!"
"Ah!! Help."
"My dear, the village is gone, even this Erxi Slope won't let anyone stay, the imperial court"
"Child, where is my child?! Erba!!"
"No, don't steal my food. This is to save my mother's life. Don't kill me!! Please!!"
"Run, Fan'er, don't run to the official road. The gentlemen there will not show mercy. Run to Shengshan County!!!"
As panic spread, the refugee camp exploded like boiling water.
In the refugee camp on the side of the Wanxing Mountains, countless people in ragged clothes poured towards the official road like an avalanche.
Some people want to escape to the other side of the official road, but some people want to take advantage of the chaos to make a fortune.
Wave after wave of people who were kidnapped and people with ulterior motives rushed towards the various caravan groups above the official road.
The caravan groups traveling on official roads reacted equally quickly when seeing such a scene.
"These refugees are crazy!!"
"The escort team is ready! Anyone who collides with the caravan will be killed without mercy!!"
"How dare the Sihai caravan rob?! Kill!!"
"These are ordinary people, do you really want to take action?!"
"You bastards! Ordinary people will come to snatch the goods?! These people have gone crazy!"
"If you don't take action, these refugees will not show mercy to you. Are you going to pay the money for the goods to the merchant house?! Kill!!!"
The escorts and knights guarding the caravan drew out their sabers one after another, but these shining sharp blades still failed to stop the flow of refugees who were swallowed up by panic and madness
Like a sea tide, the refugee wave swept away the caravan on the official road, and then swept towards Shengshan County not far away!
The moment the monster appeared, the psychedelic formation engraved around Shengshan County was immediately activated. In an instant, Shengshan County and the one kilometer radius outside Shengshan County were shrouded in a thick layer of white mist.
.
Looking down from the sky, the entire Shengshan County seems to have disappeared.
But this is for the outside world, and the internal chaos within the phantom array still continues.
Even though most of the monsters have been isolated, the dark wave of refugees is still rushing towards the clearly defined city wall like ants!
The panic has swallowed up the reason of these poor people, and they desperately want to run to a place they think is safe, even if the monster behind them has been blocked.
It's a pity that the border troops in Shengshan County will not allow them to enter the city.
The generals in charge of Shengshan County knew very well that allowing this group of crazy refugees to enter the city would cause a greater disaster.
The border troops stationed near the refugee camp formed a military formation and were ready.
General Qu's persuasion at the border was fruitless, and under the constant impact of the surging refugee flow,
The killing has begun.
Kill!
Anyone who dares to attack the city gate will be killed without mercy. Kill until these crazy refugees calm down.
Finally,
After all, the chaos was restricted outside Shengshan County.
In just half an hour, tens of thousands of people died quietly due to the turmoil caused by the monster. However, the number of people who actually died from the monster's mouth was no more than a hundred people.
Shengshan County has three city gates in the east, north and south. Because the west side faces the Wanxing Mountains, there is no gate.
After the trade routes passed smoothly, Shengshan County set up three markets in the east, north and south along these three city gates.
Every market is lively and the management methods are simple and crude.
Garrisoned troops.
Nowadays, the top chief executive of Shengshan County is a school captain general. It is really difficult to expect a big boss to be able to manage these things.
An army of 500 people was stationed next to each market. Anyone who dared to attack in the market would be dragged out and chopped up.
There are disadvantages and advantages to being in charge of generals. At least in emergency situations, the response speed of the entire Shengshan County is much faster than that of bureaucrats.
For example, now,
Within half an hour after the wave of monsters arrived, the bustling market was forcibly cleared.
Groups of frontier soldiers armed with sharp swords were patrolling back and forth in the city.
Standing by the window of the inn, Xu Yuan looked at the dense fog in the sky that seemed to have been there forever.
In fact, the moment he saw the psychedelic formation activated, Xu Yuan knew that if nothing unexpected happened, there would be another accident.
To be continued...
