The night was dark and rainy.
Gong Mengbi looked at the layers of clouds in the sky and could no longer clearly see the dying black dragon.
The clouds overlap like mountains and mountains hanging upside down.
Lightning, thunder and fire shuttled through the clouds, revealing a brief brilliance of blue, purple, green or red.
The rainwater pattered on the eaves, and the rainwater falling on the eaves turned into silver threads, swaying left and right in the strong wind.
Gong Mengbi sighed, unable to resolve the depression in his heart.
It's been a stormy night, but what will it be like tomorrow?
After dawn, the rain came and went, and Gong Mengbi got the answer.
The valley below Fox Slope is submerged in water. Looking up, it looks like an isolated island in the river.
On land further away, even the trees were half submerged.
Needless to say, he knew that all the refugees had suffered heavy losses overnight.
If you can't find a high-lying place to protect yourself from the rain and water, it will pour down all night, and even adults will be swept away by the water.
Gong Mengbi looked up at the sky, seeing dark clouds lingering in the sky.
The heavy clouds gathered by the breath of the sky and the earth have not dispersed yet, and the rain has not yet ended.
Gong Mengbi couldn't understand or imagine it.
He closed his eyes and cleared his mind.
The ghost in yellow who followed the refugees came back to report the news, saying: "My lord, the time is almost here."
Gong Mengbi followed the ghost in yellow to the outside of the county town.
A large number of refugees gathered outside the city, creating a dark atmosphere.
The blackness of silence seems to be like coals of fire, which can be ignited by just a tiny spark.
General Banyin tried his best to attract refugees from all directions and surrounded the county.
This fire was originally lit by him, so that they could gather into an army and be driven by him as he wished.
Now the fire is burning by itself. Although the process is the same, General Ban Yin can no longer witness its results.
Natural disasters force people into desperate situations, but there are safe shelters and enough food in the city.
If someone wants to starve to death and freeze to death, that person will be a devil crawling out of hell.
The refugees are not all ordinary people. Among them are squires, wealthy households, thieves, and water thieves.
In the face of natural disasters, any identity is useless.
But in front of the refugees, these identities and experiences suddenly became useful to incite people's hearts, seek a life, or have ulterior motives.
A refugee with a background as a thieves said: "We have brothers in the city who can serve as internal responders."
"We can recruit a few good guys at night and open the city gate. Then we can break into the city and survive."
There are also a few capable people hidden in this group of people. Although it is difficult to fly to the sky and escape from the earth, they are as light as a swallow, climb trees on walls, and have the ability to connect with flying ropes to cope with such a scene.
At night, someone was indeed in the city to meet him.
Several people hooked the city wall with a zip line, climbed up the wall, and introduced the best people among the refugees into the city, forming a small team of twenty people.
Thanks to the sound of rain and the dark night, he was not discovered by the soldiers guarding the city.
In the second half of the night, when the defense was relaxed, these talented people suddenly took action, and some of them were able to blind the evil wind.
As soon as the dark wind blew, this group of people immediately took advantage of the chaos to attack, either using strange weapons or directly seizing the way of the guards. They knocked several guards to the ground and immediately prepared to open the city gate.
These movements were hidden in the darkness and did not even attract the attention of the officers and soldiers guarding the city.
Until there was a boom.
"The city gate is open! The city gate is open!"
The whistling sound suddenly started, and countless refugees who were awakened seemed to see a glimmer of hope.
Regardless of whether it was planned or not, at this moment, all the refugees rushed towards the city like crazy.
When the city guards came again at this time, they could not stop the surging crowd and were forced to retreat all the way into the city.
A loud arrow sounded in the air, exploding into a ball of red light.
More officers and soldiers gathered together, their swords facing each other. The refugees squeezed in front could not help themselves. Once they stopped, they would be trampled to death by more people behind them.
Flesh and blood flew everywhere.
The sound of rain, crying, and shouting; the light of swords, fire, and lightning.
"Liu County Lieutenant, Liu County Lieutenant."
Liu Sheng was asleep and was woken up by a voice.
Chi Xia stood beside his bed and said: "The refugees have invaded the city and are starting to fight. If we can't suppress the situation, Wuning County will fall soon."
Liu Sheng suddenly climbed up from the bed, his eyebrows furrowed and his eyes solemn.
Liu Sheng immediately put on his armor, held a sword, and went out with a bow.
By the time Liu Sheng arrived at the alley in front of the city gate, the officers and soldiers had already rushed out of formation. The patrolman was shouting desperately, but his voice was drowned in the crowd and could not be heard clearly.
The corpses of refugees and officers and soldiers were crowded together, and blood flowed all over the ground.
Liu Sheng took a deep breath, and his voice was like a bell: "Array! Mandarin duck array!"
Liu Sheng walked out of the darkness, the firelight shining on his face like a lion.
The patrol inspector had fallen into despair, but when he saw Liu Sheng coming, he felt both hatred and joy at the same time.
I hate him for seizing power before the battle, I hate myself for not being able to seize the opportunity, but I am happy that I can survive.
The officers and soldiers were still hesitating, but the inspector shouted at the top of his lungs: "Listen to Lieutenant Liu's command!"
Liu Sheng took the lead and got into the crowd, knocking down the refugees one after another with elbow strikes and leg strikes, without causing many killings.
He was like a sharp knife piercing the whirlpool of refugees. Officers and soldiers followed him and kept gathering.
But the officers and soldiers were not so soft-hearted. They raised their swords and killed them until rivers of blood flowed.
When the refugees in the back saw the bleeding in front, they no longer dared to move forward and were forced to keep moving back. The refugees in the back moved forward, while the refugees in the front moved back. They were blocked in one place, unable to enter or exit.
Narrow alleyways have become the most powerful weapons for officers and soldiers. They can block the outposts of refugees and block the people behind them from moving.
Liu Sheng stood in front of the refugees. The officers and soldiers wanted to come forward again, but Liu Sheng reached out to stop them and said, "Is there anyone you can talk to?"
A burly man pushed through the crowd and stood up. He had a ferocious face and thick bones. He sneered, "Zeng Fan from a certain family still has some weight in his words."
Liu Sheng said: "Take them out and exit."
Zeng Fan said: "Master Guan, I can retreat. If I retreat, I can find food and a place to stay. But how can they retreat? They have no place to stay, no food or drink, and they will die if they retreat."
"Don't say that I just have some strength and helped a few people, so my words are still useful. But if you ask them to withdraw and wait for death, you ask them whether they will agree."
The firelight shone, and the refugees' eyes looked like wolves in the darkness.
No words were spoken, no need to speak.
Liu Sheng frowned. Although he led his officers and soldiers to kill a group of refugees, he only took advantage of the favorable location. But in a real fight, two fists are hard to beat with four hands. Between waiting to die or defeating the officers and soldiers to survive, they must choose the latter.
Liu Sheng looked at the inspector and said, "Go and ask the county magistrate to make a decision."

I worked overtime until nine o'clock today and didn't have time to finish writing. I'll put up one chapter first and the next chapter first to ensure perfect attendance. Don't read it yet. Wait until the wording on the title is corrected before you read it.
