Chapter 618 Throwing Stones
I heard that the northern barbarian captives were going to enter the city, so how could the people of Huju stay there?
If it was summer or autumn, they would have to get some rotten leaves and vegetable stems and spit on some old phlegm to treat them well.
Now it is winter, and there is really nothing.
But there are always more solutions than problems.
When helping the government office to make sleds, every family saw that this thing was convenient and made it.
At this time, the adults in the family pulled the sled, and the old and the young made snowballs on it. They stretched out their hands and hugged a handful of snow, and the solid snowballs were piled up beside them.
People have a tendency to follow the crowd.
When the people around saw it, they also followed suit.
There was some distance from Huju City to the pass, and the villagers did not complain about the hard work, and they followed the large army forward.
Almost all the people in the city came.
When everyone got out of the pass, the team escorting the prisoners was still far away and had not arrived.
Why are you still waiting foolishly? Just go forward and meet them.
A few black spots gradually appeared on the white snowfield, and they became bigger and clearer.
Then someone with sharp eyes shouted.
"The captives from Beirong are coming!"
The huge team finally stopped, stood still, and looked forward to it.
...
General Xue saw people from afar.
Wow, there are so many of them.
He looked at the two teams of Longxing and Fengming, and then looked at Yan Hushu, who nodded slightly to him.
General Xue immediately felt confident.
He shouted first: "Go and see what's going on in front!"
One of his soldiers took the order and ran away.
The leader of Longxing and General Xue were old acquaintances, but they were not very familiar with each other. It was just that General Xue had bought horses from Huju before.
"Brother Xue, what's going on?"
General Xue pretended to be confused: "I'm confused too. I don't know what's going on. Brothers, please be patient. You'll know what's going on when my people come back."
"Report! There are people in front of us. Master Tian is also here. He said that the villagers heard that Beirong was captured and wanted to come and see the excitement."
General Xue looked as if he had suddenly realized something.
He explained to the two leaders: "No one has ever seen it. I want to see something new."
He looked sad and said in a deep voice: "Brothers, please give us some convenience. It's not easy for the villagers. They have come so far in the cold weather. They must be so anxious. Let's not wait to enter the city. We've bumped into each other here. Let's just let them see enough."
The two leaders looked at each other and nodded.
It's human nature. It doesn't matter if we make some concessions.
General Xue smiled and tried to get close to the two of them, while doing something cool.
Let the tied Beirong circle around the person at the head.
His explanation was that this way, there would be no need to worry about Beirong making trouble. It would be more difficult to escape if they circled in layers than in rows.
The two leaders thought it made sense.
They acquiesced to his order.
Three teams of people formed a circle to guard on the side.
…
Yan Yu still sat on Uncle Qi's shoulders.
There was no way, she needed vision.
There were many children sitting on adults' shoulders like her, but they were not so conspicuous.
"Uncle Qi, put me down quickly, I saw Uncle Luo." Yan Yu whispered beside Uncle Qi's ear.
Qi Si immediately put her down.
Yan Yu was seen moving flexibly among the crowd, and she ran away in the blink of an eye.
Qi Si was anxious but could not do anything. He could not push people, so he could only move forward slowly.
Yan Yu aimed at the target and rushed out like a little leopard.
"Uncle San, is that you, Uncle San?!" A childish voice, full of surprise and disbelief.
A little man ran in the snow, one foot deep and one foot shallow, completely ignoring his feet, and approached the group of skinny, ragged people at his fastest speed.
The "Uncle San" in the team seemed to be surprised.
He responded in a hoarse voice: "Second boy, it's Uncle San, it's Uncle San, woo woo woo, Uncle San is back, back!"
The little man who ran over burst into tears.
"Uncle San, grandpa and grandma are..." He couldn't even finish his words, and almost cried to death.
"Uncle San" trembled all over.
He knelt on the ground.
"Dad, Mom, San'er is unfilial!"
The uncle and nephew hugged each other and cried bitterly.
When Qiucheng was broken, how many families were safe? How many families hung white flags.
This sadness is just not mentioned, just covered up.
But once it is lifted, it will be a huge wave.
"My son! I am so miserable! Why did you save me, you little kid... Why didn't you let me die? I am the one who deserves to die! You bastards, I'll beat you to death, I'll beat you to death!"
A heartbroken mother, although her head and face were covered, still contributed extremely exquisite acting skills with a good voice and excellent empathy.
This mother who performed the transition from sadness to hatred so naturally and smoothly was Cui Niangzi.
Cui Niangzi used local materials, picked up a stone and threw it at the circle of Beirong captives.
One piece after another, there was no need to aim, a large group of Beirong was there, just throw it.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves!
For a while, all the people shouted the names of their relatives and rushed forward like crazy.
The scene was chaotic for a while.
Some relatives who died and could not find their bodies kept searching among the rescued people with a tiny hope.
More people who witnessed their relatives die under the knife of Beirong threw snowballs and stones.
Yan Yu and Luo San retired after their mission.
The two separated quickly and quietly hid in the crowd.
Luo San was helped by Luo Er to put on a thick cotton coat.
The big dog and the small dog dragged their mother to the side.
At this time, no one noticed why there were two boys around the miserable mother.
Madam Cui knew it in her heart.
What did her second brother invite her to do? How could she just howl and leave?
She kept yelling all the way.
What? Kill those inhuman beasts! Give my second uncle back his life, but she would pinch her throat, and the voices were not similar. There were so many people, and if you didn't look closely, you couldn't find that these shouts came from one person.
The so-called smart people in the Huju militia were mostly from Xiaoan Village.
Others were not familiar with Madam Cui's voice, but they could hear something. This voice of the second uncle opened everyone's eyes.
Give my third uncle back his life!
Fourth uncle, you died miserably!
Fifth grandfather, your grandson will avenge you!
…
Yan Yu was just listening to these people’s lack of creativity and was about to shout something else, but someone called “Auntie” suddenly interrupted.
Some called “Auntie”, some called “Wife”, some called “Big Sister”, and some called “Little Sister”…
Yan Yu couldn’t figure out who was shouting, but she felt that it was so out of tune that it must not be someone who had really lost a loved one.
She really didn’t guess wrong.
Big Sister and Little Sister were both from General Xue’s subordinates.
The so-called capable people.
"You don't even have a wife, why are you calling her aunt?!"
"I don't have one, but you do? Where is the sister-in-law you're calling?"
"I'm calling for my future wife."
"What a coincidence, me too."
I came to install the cabinets today and was busy until very late. I was so sleepy that I slept for an hour. I set the alarm to go off every five minutes and stayed at home for half an hour before getting up. Time is too tight, so I'll update first and then correct the typos~
This chapter is from yesterday, and it should be updated tomorrow at night. A relative is coming by high-speed rail and will pick him up at the station tomorrow. We'll go out for dinner in the evening, so the update time won't be too early. Don't stay up late and wait, just read it during the day~
