Yu Yi was waiting to say anything more, but Huang Wenjie didn't have the patience to listen and walked away. Although Yu Yi didn't say anything more, he had some opinions in his heart, but it wasn't easy to get angry. However, Wei Gang came out to smooth things over and hoped to stay. After coming down to figure out a solution with Yu Yi, Yu Yi focused his energy on the remaining personnel.
The officers and soldiers wore masks and escorted those people to the edge of the west gate. Because the west gate was closed, they were compressed in a very small space and kept wailing. There were several children in the crowd, and they were surrounded by their parents. , in order to let them live longer, the parents were lifted up, for fear that their children would be squeezed by the crowd.
These people were discovered as soon as they showed symptoms and were escorted to an area of the East Gate. Because there was an emergency at the West Gate, Huang Wenjie temporarily transferred these people back at his own suggestion. Although during the battle, they moved towards the West Gate city wall. What was thrown below were corpses that were too late to be cremated, but the human instinct to survive existed. After they knew the corpses, their turn would be theirs next, so they began to resist, except for a group of people who were forcibly escorted out by the officers and soldiers at the beginning. The remaining people began to flow back into Chengli, and chaos began to appear in the west of the city.
Yu Yi stood on the west gate wall and felt mixed emotions when he saw all this. Compared with the situation inside the west gate, the situation outside was worse. There were corpses all over the ground and blood stains everywhere. Occasionally, some people who did not die also died due to illness. They got sick and contracted the symptoms, and began to wail. It seemed that they were unable to escape. They were unable to advance or retreat, and all that was left to them was the hope of death.
Although some bandits were defeated in this battle, Yu Yi thought it was disgraceful and a poor choice. Yu Yi believed that he was mainly responsible for the deaths of these refugees. Moreover, Huang Wenjie's ruthlessness made him Yuyi realized how cruel politics is.
"Hey, what are you thinking about? If I don't tell you that County Magistrate Huang will give you three days, the condition of these people and their diseases will prevent them from surviving today."
Seeing Yuyi standing there blankly, Wei Gang next to him spoke.
Wei Gang's words made Yu Yi come out of his thoughts. He looked at Wei Gang gratefully and asked, "Is there anything you can do?"
Wei Gang touched the back of his head and smiled, saying that he just stayed to see the situation and see what Yu Yi could do.
Yu Yi looked at Wei Gang, and he also smiled, but his smile was full of helplessness.
Suddenly Yu Yi heard a shout and looked from the west gate wall. He saw that this person was Xiao Zhu. Yu Yi quickly ordered the officers and soldiers to bring Xiao Zhu over.
"Brother Yu, I went to the teahouse to find Li Banxian as you asked, but I didn't see anyone after waiting for a whole day."
Xiaozhu reported the situation.
"You go and check on the situation every day these days. I think he is a strange person."
Yuyi once again asked Xiaozhu to stay there. For some reason, since he met Li Banxian, he thought that this person had something special about him.
Li Banxian analyzed the situation of the entire Eastern Han Dynasty very thoroughly, and his words were mobilizing everyone's enthusiasm, as if he wanted to call for something. As for the theory of dragons and snakes, and the visions of heaven and earth, Yu Yi believed that these events were not credible enough without personal experience. Gao, of course if you have the chance, you can ask Donghua Shangxian, maybe he will know something.
After Xiaozhu received the new task, he immediately went down to the city wall to implement it. Regarding this point, Yu Yi still likes it very much. Xiaozhu's execution ability is very high, and he will execute it directly even if he doesn't understand.
"Who is this Li Banxian? Are you so anxious to find him?"
Wei Gang heard the conversation between the two and felt a little strange, so he went to ask.
"It's a storyteller I met in Julu City. I think his storytelling is very good. I want to listen to it again, so I asked Xiaozhu to go and take a look."
Yuyi replied.
Wei Gang nodded, looked at the sky, and suggested: "You see, it's already getting late. We can't think of anything anyway. Why don't we go have a meal first and communicate with each other? I think you are still a good person." It’s very interesting, I want to get to know you again.”
Yu Yi looked at the sick people below the city, sighed, made a pause gesture with Wei Gang, and then walked towards their area.
Originally, Yu Yi planned to go in, but the crowd was too chaotic and there was no other way. Yu Yi could only stand outside the circle and start shouting.
"Hello everyone! I am the new deputy chief of Julu County. I am deeply sorry that you are sick. Before I learned about your illness, in order to prevent more people from being infected, I So I can only let everyone make do with it. Today, the bandits took advantage of the chaos to attack our west gate. We resorted to corpse warfare to repel the enemy's attack. This is a helpless move. I hope you can understand. Now I can assure you that I will think We will do everything we can to treat you, so please don’t mess around.”
Yu Yi's words were very pertinent, and he was almost moved by himself at the end.
However, no one seemed to buy what Yu Yi said. A middle-aged man seemed to have gotten some news and stood up and said: "You and that Huang Wenjie are the same species. You officers protect each other. He has already ordered us to be sacrificed. Why do you want to We don’t want chaos, how can we survive without chaos?”
This voice was approved by most people, so the crowd began to boo, and the originally quiet environment became noisy again.
Originally Yu Yi had good intentions, but was misunderstood, and he himself felt a little uncomfortable. However, Yu Yi felt that he was guilty, so he did not get angry, but explained: "Yes, Magistrate Huang only gave me In three days, if I cannot cure you within three days, you will all be sent to Julu City, and you should know what this means."
"Haha, why are you pretending to be so kind? So let's all rise up and resist."
When the middle-aged man saw that Yuyi had told the truth, he thought that his behavior of exposing the other party was very noble, so he became even more unscrupulous.
Seeing the chaos in the crowd, Yu Yi couldn't get off the tiger for a while and didn't know what to do.
At this time, Wei Gang also walked down from the city wall. He walked up to the middle-aged man with a knife and slashed the knife. The man's head fell directly from his neck, followed by his body falling. A large amount of blood spurted out from the neck, and the head rolled right to Yu Yi's feet, frightening Yu Yi a little.
"Let me tell you, Deputy Chief Yu wants to help you. That's because of your submission. If you are as ignorant as this person, then you can only be executed on the spot. It depends on whether you choose to die or live."
Wei Gang put the knife on his shoulder and said loudly to the crowd.
Wei Gang's behavior surprised Yu Yi. He knew it was a trick to scare the monkeys, but it did play its role.
