Tens of thousands of people poured into the streets. The usually spacious streets were now crowded with people, almost all running in one direction.
Seeing this scene, Yi Zhou said earnestly:
"If they can't hold it, the city gate will be breached, and Yundu's 100,000 troops will rush into the city, perhaps burning, killing, looting, or the plague will be rampant. If they capture the city lord or King Cang before reinforcements arrive, Feng The Qing Kingdom is completely in danger. Even if they fail to capture King Cang and the plague enters the city, Jiang City will also fall, and at the very least the city will have to be sealed off."
After listening to Yi Zhou's words, Liu Shengsheng took a step back, "No wonder everyone is running out..."
"So let's leave quickly!"
Liu Shengsheng stood there blankly. She saw a pregnant woman running wildly in the crowd with a big belly. One of them accidentally fell to the ground, and her husband kept pushing the people around her.
"Don't step on her! Get out of the way! Wife, get up quickly!"
The old man on crutches stood at the door of his house, looking at everything blankly.
There were also women crying bitterly while holding their children, shouting loudly: If I had known, I would have run away earlier...
The war begins.
From far away, you can hear someone banging on the city gate, and you can also hear soldiers fighting and shouting.
Although he couldn't see the scene, just by hearing the sound, he knew that the battle was very fierce.
"Get out of the way! Madam is here! Everyone, get out of the way quickly!"
A carriage appeared in front, with a dozen followers guarding the carriage, and they soon arrived in front of Liu Shengsheng.
The road was so crowded that the carriage had to stop in the middle of the road.
Rongrong hurriedly poked his head out, "Hurry up and leave! What are you doing?"
"Back to Madam, the road ahead is blocked..."
Only then did Rongrong see Liu Shengsheng in the middle of the road. She gritted her teeth and said, "Girl, don't you understand the current situation? Why don't you give way quickly?"
"Make way? It's understandable that the people are fleeing in all directions, but as the young lady of this city, you should live and die with this city. Everyone can escape, but you can't!"
Yizhou said with a gloomy expression.
Seeing countless people looking in this direction, Rongrong couldn't help but said, "Young madam is also a human being, and my life is also my life. Everyone has fled. I can't help if I stay here, so why can't I escape?"
"you……"
"What am I? I haven't pursued you yet! I heard that bandits appeared here just now. Those bandits came for you. You almost killed many innocent people. Now you are still standing here blocking the road. How many people do you want to kill? Human?"
Rongrong said angrily, and then said: "Come here, push them two away!"
"How do you know those bandits are coming for us?"
Liu Shengsheng looked at her coldly, "Are they the bandits you bribed?"
A trace of panic flashed in Rongrong's eyes, "How long has it been and you are still talking nonsense? I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, please get out of the way!"
Yi Zhou was so angry that he wanted to make a move, but Liu Shengsheng grabbed him and pulled him slowly aside.
However, after the two people retreated, the road ahead was equally crowded. Countless people were crowded together, and it took a long time to walk a few steps. Under such circumstances, the carriage could not pass at all.
Rongrong was so angry that she jumped out of the carriage, "Everyone, please listen to me. Please line up and step aside. Let me go out first. I will go out to find reinforcements for you. I believe they will be there soon..."
"Are you still a human being?"
Liu Shengsheng interrupted her coldly.
Rongrong was furious, but he didn't bother to pay attention to her. Instead, he directly asked people to push away the people in front of him one by one.
The common people dared not speak out when they were angry, so they could only let her push and scold her.
Liu Shengsheng couldn't bear it anymore and grabbed her.
"Look at how many people there are on this street! These dense crowds are all the people of Jiangcheng. As a young lady, you don't want to let them go first, but instead ask them to make way for you. Are you human?"
"pop"
With a sound, Rongrong slapped her face.
This is something no one expected!
Even Liu Shengsheng herself did not expect that she would hit someone in front of so many people.
It seems that Jiangcheng is really in trouble.
She didn't even bother to pretend.
"I am the young lady. I said I would go find reinforcements, so I am going to find reinforcements. What qualifications do you have to stop me?"
With a "pop" sound, Liu Shengsheng slapped her with her backhand, leaving her stunned.
"You, you dare to hit me?"
"Papa" slapped her twice again. After hitting Liu Shengsheng, he kicked her mercilessly, causing her to fall to the ground!
"Ouch……"
This scene shocked everyone. Upon seeing this, Rongrong's entourage immediately stepped forward to stop him, but he was knocked to the ground by Yi Zhou in a few seconds!
The people watched everything in front of them tremblingly, but Liu Shengsheng untied the rope from the carriage and tied up Rongrong Wuhuada directly.
Rong Rongqi cursed loudly.
"You are so brave! You are all so brave! I am the young lady! If you do this, my husband will not let you go!".
"Shut your stinky mouth!" Yizhou yelled.
Liu Shengsheng threw her directly back onto the carriage. This throw immediately pulled her into the wound where she fell yesterday, and she grinned in pain...
But Liu Shengsheng’s tone was gloomy:
"Everyone is qualified to mention your husband, but at this moment, you are the least qualified! Your husband, even the seriously ill city lord, is rushing to the city wall to defend Jiangcheng! Do you hear the sound of banging on the door in the distance? Do you know Do you know how many people are standing there pressing the city gate right now, just to make the people here safer for every minute?"
"Can you imagine how many soldiers are on the city wall right now, holding swords to stop the enemy troops from climbing up the city wall! How many people are shedding blood just to keep everyone here safe!"
"You keep saying that you are going to find reinforcements, but who doesn't know that reinforcements will arrive soon? Do you need to go out? Is it the enemy troops that everyone is afraid of? What they are afraid of is the plague! The unknown virus, the threat to death of fear!"
As she spoke, she climbed onto the carriage and stood on the roof in full view of everyone.
"You keep saying that you are waiting for reinforcements, looking for reinforcements, you keep saying that you cannot open the city gate, and that the most important thing right now is to defend the city. Everyone is saying that there are no defenders, but look around you, look at the streets. People, let me ask you, aren’t you human?”
Liu Shengsheng's voice was loud and majestic, and the people around her were stunned. They seemed a little confused about her anger.
Perhaps the roads were too crowded, or perhaps they were too frightened. The people looked at Liu Shengsheng on the roof of the car in confusion, not understanding what she was going to do.
Then Liu Shengsheng turned up the volume.
"Fellows and elders of Jiangcheng! I believe you all know that King Cang is here! One hundred thousand of our compatriots are coming soon! Jiangcheng will not be lost! We will not fail! There is no need for everyone here to escape!"
"We have tens of thousands of villagers, but there are only a hundred thousand enemy troops outside the city gate. We have many defenders, and we are not fighting alone! The ones who really want to escape are those outside the city gate who want to attack us, not us!"
"..."
The crowd gradually became quiet until an uncle broke the silence, "What you said is simple. If the plague enters the city, can you save everyone?"
"I can't guarantee that I can! But if the plague enters the city, I will never be alone!"
Liu Shengsheng's eyes were firm.
Another person said: "There are 100,000 soldiers. What do you, a woman, know? The young lady is right, you shouldn't block everyone's way!"
