Chapter 740

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, line up..." a circle of sergeants surrounded the carriage, separated the crowded crowd, and then distributed the food in the carriage.

There were so many refugees all at once. Looking around the carriage, there were hands stretched out on tiptoes. It was like a jungle. It was too dense to count.

"My Lord, give me some..."

"Give me some..."

"We haven't eaten for a day, please..."

The refugees who escaped from Gyeonggi held out their hands, looked at this side with eager eyes, and tried their best to squeeze forward.

Some of those who were assigned things immediately put them in their mouths, while others hurriedly retreated with food tightly in their arms to find their family and partners. The scene was noisy. If the sergeants hadn't surrounded the vehicle, someone would have rushed and robbed it.

This four-wheel carriage is filled with emergency things on the road prepared by Yan Liqiang, including dried meat, fried rice noodles, milk cakes and some water in wooden barrels. These things are priceless for the refugees gathered on both sides of the official road.

In this case, the woman holding the baby in her swaddling clothes just now couldn't squeeze in at all. The child was crying. She could only stand on the roadside anxiously and look at it with powerless and helpless expressions. Yan Liqiang personally found a kettle, filled it with a pot of water, a strip of dried meat, and a small bag of fried rice and milk cakes, and came to the woman, Take the things in your hand to the woman

"Thank you, thank you..." the woman held the child in her arms with one hand and took Yan Liqiang's things with one hand trembling. Tears came out and fell down.

After taking these things, she squatted down, wiped a handful of tears, drank a mouthful of water for the child, then picked up a milk cake, chewed it, and then carefully crossed it to the mouth of the swaddling baby, just like a bird feeding. The crying child ate something in his mouth, stopped crying and began to eat milk cakes

Yan Liqiang watched quietly next to him. Until the baby ate for a while and stopped crying, he calmly opened his mouth, "where are you from? Why are you here alone with the child?"

Hearing Yan Liqiang's question, the woman's tears came down again, but she still managed to hold back her tears and replied, "Sir, the people's daughter's name is Wu Qinghe. She was originally a native of Xiguan, Huizhou City. The day before yesterday, Huizhou city suffered great changes. Many people in the surrounding villages became disobedient, biting people everywhere, killing people, and the city was in chaos, My husband took my daughter and my family to flee together, but I didn't expect that on the road... We encountered thousands of people on the road, just like wild animals. My husband and my family were killed, so I had to run out with my children with the villagers who fled together. Later... I came here... And lost touch with the villagers... So there was only my daughter here... "

Yan Liqiang could imagine the scene as the woman said, even if he didn't see it. He sighed in his heart, "do you still have parents and brothers at home now?"

"No, no..." the woman shook her head absently, continued to wipe her tears and whispered, "the village where minnu's mother's house is located, I heard that all the people in the village are dead. Now only minnu and the child depend on each other..."

Yan Liqiang looked at the refugees fighting for food around the carriage, then looked at the woman and the baby in her arms, and then turned his head directly, "Meng Hui..."

"Your Excellency, you call me!" Meng Hui hurriedly ran over.

"I remember two of the vehicles that the women in the back can sit down. You send her over and let her go with us!"

Meng Hui looked at the woman and the baby in her arms, then looked at Yan Liqiang and nodded heavily.

"Thank you, thank you..." when the woman named Wu Qinghe heard Yan Liqiang say this, her tears flowed down again. She quickly knelt down with her child and kowtowed to Yan Liqiang.

Yan Liqiang picked up the woman and the child, "get up, get up, you go to the back car and go with us. There is also a care on the road..." with that, Yan Liqiang asked Meng Hui to take the woman to the car with the maid in waiting behind.

Yan Liqiang asked himself that he was not a soft hearted person, but at this time, he knew that a weak woman fled with a baby in swaddling clothes. She had no relatives and no reason to rely on. In the end, the possibility that the woman and her child could survive was too low. Fortunately, it was fine these two days. If the weather was bad these two days, as long as it rained at night, When this woman gets sick, the mother and son are finished. At this time, human life is as cheap as grass!

There are too many refugees in front of us. Even if Yan Liqiang has the ability, he can't do anything at this time. He can only do his best to have peace of mind!

Meng Hui had just left with the woman, but the dead eunuch next to Rong Guifei appeared in front of Yan Liqiang. At this time, the old eunuch, dressed as a steward, looked very angry. He just criticized and lowered his voice, "Lord Yan, what are you doing? We are in a situation where we don't have enough to eat, You also give our things to these refugees. Don't you know who is sitting in the car? What do you care about these people? Are you confused? Your mother is still waiting in the car? What if these refugees start looting... "

Yan Liqiang has endured the dead eunuch for a long time, but at this time, Yan Liqiang still suppressed his anger and tried to say in a calm tone, "the public is worried too much. The food we brought in our car and enough for us to use for several days. It's not urgent at the moment. Since I can bring my mother and King min out of the imperial capital, Naturally, they can be sent to a safe place... "

"You..." the dead eunuch just wanted to jump and say something. He suddenly saw Yan Liqiang looking at him with cold eyes and thought of Yan Liqiang's means along the way. For some reason, the dead eunuch was cold in his heart and choked on what he wanted to say. He shook his sleeve, sneered, turned his head and left, leaving a word before taking him away, "Then I'll see what happens to you!"

Although there was a lot of food on that carriage, it was all distributed in a few minutes at this time.

When the food on the carriage was delivered, the sergeants closed the door of the carriage and let the refugees around the carriage leave, "things have been delivered. Go, go, don't surround..."

Some refugees left, but some refugees did not leave. Many people still surrounded the carriage and didn't let it go. They still stretched out their hands, looked up and shouted, "Sir, sir, give me more..."

"Sir, give me some more..."

"You have so many carriages. There must be a lot of food on that carriage. Give me some more..."

Yan Liqiang frowned when he heard it in front. He just gave an order and said a word, "go!"

All the sergeants got on the horse, and the whole team slowly moved forward. The refugees on the road ahead saw the convoy moving, and many people stepped aside. At the same time, some people did not move. There were many people around the guard of honor, so they blocked the road. They just moved slowly and looked at the carriages in the convoy with their eyes, The atmosphere slowly changed

Suddenly, one of the refugees shouted, "you can't let them go. There must be food on the car. Why do they have food, we don't have it. Let's go up and grab it with me..."

"Yes, and these cars and horses. We can go after robbing them..." another voice agitated.

The crowd around the motorcade was a little turbulent at once, but it didn't wait for the crowd to lean over

In the quivering sound of the bowstring and the crowd around the carriage, two screams were almost remembered at the same time. In the crowd, there were two swerting heads and green skin like people. The arrows flew through their chest and nailed to the ground. Those two people were the two people who were just talking loudly and encouraging refugees to rob the convoy.

When they saw the dead, they had already started to kill people here. The refugees who just wanted to surround them shouted and ran away with fear. They were panicked and turned white.

Just now when they received the food, these people didn't think the convoy was terrible, but at this time, when they saw the blood and killed people, they reacted. The people on horses in the convoy were all sergeants, not ordinary people.

Yan Liqiang, riding on Caiyun chasing the moon, slowly retracted the bow on his hand, his eyes were shining, looked at the refugees around him, said nothing, gently clamped the stirrup, Caiyun chasing the moon trotted up, and the motorcade behind moved. No one dared to stop on the road

As the convoy moved forward, there were more and more refugees on the roadside, but the convoy did not stop until the convoy came outside the county seat of Wuting county. Yan Liqiang raised his hand and let the convoy stop all at once.

Under the city wall of the whole county, at this time, it has been crowded with countless refugees. There are temporary shelters everywhere. Just at a glance, the number of refugees gathered under the county at least exceeds 100000.

Yan Liqiang frowned and looked at the county seat of Wuting County in the distance, with some hesitation in his heart.

"My Lord, my mother is looking for you..." Liu Xi rode up and whispered.

Yan Li emphasized turning the horse's head and came to the carriage of Rong Guifei in the middle of the team. The curtain on the carriage was opened again, revealing Rong Guifei's eyes and looking at Yan Liqiang coming, "Lord Yan, what's the matter ahead?"

"Tell your mother, there's nothing ahead..." Yan Liqiang shook his head and said.

"Lord Yan, isn't the county seat of Wuting County ahead? Since there's nothing wrong, why did Lord Yan stop again? The empress and King min have been running around for two days, waiting to have a good rest in the county town? " The dead eunuch was also beside Rong Guifei's carriage. When he saw Yan Liqiang coming, he rushed to Yan Liqiang and said in a sharp voice. Since he left Beijing Xiji, the dead eunuch has become active again.

"Madam, I don't think we should enter the county of Wuting County, so we'll find a place outside the city for a rest..."

"Ah, why, why don't you go into the city? The county seat of Wuting county is clearly in front..." before Rong Guifei spoke, the dead eunuch kept talking, looked at Yan Liqiang with suspicious eyes and looked proud. "After entering the city, we can go to the government to inquire about the situation, see if there is any news from your majesty, and as long as the empress indicates her identity, You can also ask the County Yamen to inform the Sheriff of Hualan county and ask them to send troops to find someone to escort us away. Then everything will be fine. Lord Yan doesn't want his mother and King min to enter the city. What's the peace of mind... "

Yan Liqiang squinted at the eunuch and calmly looked at the eyes in the carriage. "Now the situation in Wuting county is unknown, and there are too many refugees gathered outside the county. Once you enter the city, it's not easy to get out if something happens. If your mother thinks it's safe here, she doesn't need to listen to my arrangement and insists on entering the county, Then we'll go our separate ways here. My mother can go into the city by herself, and then let Hualan County send troops to escort her!
