Chapter 203 Widow Chen's Speech
Chapter 223 Widow Chen's Speech

When Jiang Xiaobai entered the city in the morning, the place was deserted and deserted. After walking for more than 200 meters, he didn't even see a hundred people.

Dilapidated, depressed, seriously underpopulated, unable to support the normal operation of a city, this was Jiang Xiaobai's impression at the time.

However, at this moment, after experiencing a bloody baptism, the residents in Yizhou City not only did not run away, nor hid in their homes shivering, but all walked out of their homes.

There are people at the door of almost every house, six or seven more, one or two less, standing respectfully as if welcoming a VIP room, and some even set up a square table with melon and fruit snacks on it. It's almost like holding a small red flag, holding a banner, jumping and shouting like later generations.

Although everyone's expressions were dull and panic was revealed in their eyes, it was absolutely true that they came out to meet the widow Chen and Jiang Xiaobai.

Even some corpses on the North-South Street were cleaned up urgently, and the road was unimpeded.

In such a short period of time, the entire city's residents were organized and forced to show a gesture of welcoming the bandits into the city. This big fat man has more energy than imagined.

For all this, the widow Chen didn't think too much about it. Instead, she was elated, smiling and waving to the residents on both sides as she walked.

"Brother Bai, it's not easy. I like this entrance ceremony!"

In fact, the shock in Jiang Xiaobai's heart was far less violent than the shock in the hearts of the residents of Yizhou City and Fatty Fang's subordinates.

Leaving aside the halo of the two people who are masters of Taoism, and the terrifying magic weapon that can kill people a hundred steps away with a loud noise, the team they lead has completely subverted their understanding of the army. cognition.

With such a neat queue and such strange equipment, are they really magic soldiers and generals?
If these soldiers also have magical spells, wouldn't it be easy to defeat an army of tens of thousands of people?
Fatty Fang originally planned to show his favor to the widow Chen and Jiang Xiaobai in such a way, or to express to them his ability to firmly control Yizhou City, but soon he discovered that he had worked so hard to create The momentum that came out was completely suppressed.

He just walked around the city casually, and left an indelible impression on everyone.

Especially Fatty Fang's subordinates, they also wanted to follow behind and march forward like that, but their uniforms, weapons, and pace were even more inconsistent, and they marched chaotically, more like a group of bandits.

It was so embarrassing, so it became more and more sloppy and listless when walking.

"Fang Da, lead the way ahead, the target county government office!" The widow Chen didn't know where the county government office was, so she asked Fatty Fang to lead the way.

Fatty Fang had intended this for a long time, so he immediately responded and walked to the front quickly.

Turn west and pass through a [-]-meter-long alley, and you will find Fuqian Street in front of you.

This is also the area where the fighting was the most intense and the casualties were the heaviest. At least 150 people were killed here, and blood flowed in the streets.

Jiang Xiaobai originally thought that Fatty Fang would not be able to clean up this place no matter what.

But when he came over to take a look, Jiang Xiaobai was surprised. Although it was not clean, it definitely changed a lot, and it was not so bloody.

The entire street was covered with a thin layer of loess, most of the blood was covered up, and the weapons and body parts scattered on the street were also cleaned up.

But the corpses are still there. More than 100 corpses of Jinbing, more than 20 corpses of strong men, and corpses of County Magistrate Liu and more than ten yamen servants are divided into three groups and piled up under the big flagpole in front of the county yamen.

The corpses of the yamen servants and Fatty Fang were neater, they were all lined up, and the missing body parts were all spliced ​​together, and some of them were even covered with straw mats.

But Jin Bing's corpses were much worse. They were all decapitated, with heads piled up and bodies piled up, just like a pile of firewood.

From the moment she walked to Fuqian Street, the widow Chen grabbed Jiang Xiaobai's hand, her arm was trembling slightly, and most of her body weight was on her.

As a woman who came from the countryside, even with the wildest dreams hidden in her heart, it would be abnormal to say that she was not afraid when she suddenly saw so many corpses.

It is already a miracle that widow Chen can stand up and continue to walk forward.

Reluctantly walking up the steps with Jiang Xiaobai's support, the widow Chen suddenly stopped, looked back at the pile of corpses and human heads under the big flagpole, and then looked at the cowhide drum on the left, and suddenly broke away from Jiang Xiaobai and strode over , picked up the drumstick.

"Boom, boom, boom..." The sound of the drum was dull, resounding throughout the city of Yizhou.

Jiang Xiaobai knew that this was a kind of catharsis for the widow Chen. Since she entered Yizhou City, everything she saw made her feel depressed, frightened and even angry, but she couldn't show it, so she had to tap the cowhide The way of drums to vent the inner emotions.

Again and again, the widow Chen's strength was no less than that of a strong man, beating the big drum to the point of crumbling.

And with the sound of the drums, the expression on Widow Chen's face gradually calmed down, her eyes became sharp, like a queen, uh, strong confidence began to gather.

Maybe it was a mistake, but this kind of drumming was only used in the past when the government summoned the people to announce important matters.

As a result, the entire city of Yizhou moved. Whether it was out of compulsion or curiosity, more and more people walked out of their homes and began to gather in the direction of Fuqian Street.

Dozens, hundreds, thousands...

Widow Chen played the drum for 5 minutes, and the gate of the county government office was already filled with darkness, with nearly 2000 people gathered.

"Commander, why are you beating the drums and gathering the crowd?" Fatty Fang became more and more curious as he watched, and suddenly leaned over and said in a low voice, "Could it be that they..."

Fatty Fang made a beheading motion, but his expression was full of hesitation and fear.

Even he, who regards life as nothing, can't bear to kill more than 2000 innocent people at once.

"I know kill kill kill, they are my people now, my treasures!" The widow Chen Bai glanced at Fatty Fang, took Jiang Xiaobai's hand and walked down the steps, and said loudly: "The elders of Yizhou City Folks, how are you?"

The voice is crisp and the smile is the most sincere greeting.

But all the people around were silent, they all looked at the two with terrified and confused eyes.

"Fathers and folks, you have suffered under the oppression of the soldiers of the Kingdom of Jin and the oppression of the incompetent Song government!" The widow Chen clasped her fists, bowed to the people around her, and said loudly: "However, the suffering has passed. , the two mountains that weighed on your heads were overturned today. From this moment on, a brand new, happy, rich and fulfilling life begins!"

Everyone is still silent, they can hardly understand.

The widow Chen was a little embarrassed, and found a seven or eight-year-old child in front of her. She wanted to ease the atmosphere, so she walked over and said softly, "Little sister, you..."

"Wow..." The little girl cried out in fright.
