After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother

After hearing Yuxiu's warning, the soldiers defending the city immediately showed no mercy. Their wives, children and parents lived in the county town behind them. Today they had to stop these attacking bandits outside the city wall.

"what!"

"Go to hell!"

"I will fight with you!"

As the officers and soldiers continued to swing their swords, the two sides engaged in a fierce battle, and the bandits who wanted to climb the city wall were finally repelled.

They did not leave. Instead, more and more refugees came from afar and stood guard not far away, with a fierce look in their eyes that showed they were determined to win. It seemed that the small county of Yangshan had now been surrounded by these people.

Those people retreated a little at this time, and the officers and soldiers on the city wall could also take a breath temporarily. Zhao Mu led his men to run back and forth to direct those people to treat the wounded, while Wen Yichen gathered a few trusted people aside to urgently discuss the next response plan.

Yuxiu did not participate in these, but stood on the highest point of the city wall. Yangshan County was not big, and it was all within Yuxiu's field of vision. There were still many people running with torches on the streets. Some of them were with their families, while others were alone. They were all people who had learned that the bandits were about to break in and were ready to abandon their homes and businesses to escape.

However, after a short while, the people retreated wailing, and everyone was blocking the street, hesitating and not knowing what to do.

Yuxiu took out her telescope and looked carefully, only to find that the reason those people retreated was because the north gate was also tightly closed. Although she could not see the specific situation over there, Yuxiu could still guess that the north gate must have been surrounded by people.

Not to mention that these people can't get out, even if the door is opened now to let them out, I'm afraid no one would be willing to do so.

There are not many officers and soldiers in the city. There are only about 200 people at the South Gate. Even if there are 200 people at the North Gate, the total number will not exceed 500.

But seeing the increasing number of refugees gathering outside, Yuxiu felt very worried.

She was not afraid. Even if the city was broken, she could enter the space to hide, but these people and civilians would probably be killed by them.

Not to mention that she had received a task from the small system now, even if she hadn't received a task, she thought she couldn't just stand by and watch these people being tortured to death.

However, now that we are on the verge of life and death, resisting the bandits is no longer the task of one person alone. We still have to mobilize the ordinary people in the city.

However, looking at the gentle county magistrate, Yuxiu couldn't help but sigh.

This person may be extremely talented and eloquent, but he is really of no use at this time.

There's no other way, I have to do this myself.

Do it as you think. Yuxiu is now standing in a small attic above the city gate with small windows on all four sides. Now those officers and soldiers are outside and have no intention of coming in. Yuxiu thought about it and simply took out the Bluetooth speaker and small microphone in her supermarket from the space.

"My fellow villagers, please be quiet and listen to me."

This sudden voice suddenly sounded, and most of the people in Yangshan County stopped what they were doing.

"What is this sound?"

"Where did it come from?"

"Could it be that some immortal being couldn't bear to see us suffer and wanted to come and save us?"

The people gathered together and whispered to each other, looking around constantly, trying to see where the god was.

"Everyone knows that the city is now surrounded by refugees instigated by bandits. If we only rely on the strength of the officers and soldiers in the county government, we are far from being a match for those people. If the city is really breached, then where will everyone go?

Your children, your wives, your parents will all be trampled under the feet of those people and tortured.

The family business that you have worked so hard to earn will soon be taken away by others, and your well-behaved and lovely children will be hacked to death in a pool of blood by those people. As for the fate of the women, I am afraid I don't need to say much, you all know it in your hearts.

In short, at this critical moment of life and death, we can no longer be cowards. We must stand up, take up our weapons, obey the command of the county magistrate, and work together to resist the foreign enemies!"

Quiet, deathly quiet.

As the voice fell, both the civilians in the city and the officers and soldiers on the city wall lowered their heads and fell silent.

The officers and soldiers had no way to retreat. Just as Yuxiu said, their wives, children and elders were in the city. Even if they had to fight to the very last moment, they would do their best to keep these people out.

The people were very conflicted and troubled.

If the city is really breached, needless to say, those vicious bandits will be extremely brutal and bloodthirsty.

There were also those refugees who were starving and wanted to grab someone and take a bite.

If those people really break into the city, I'm afraid this small Yangshan County will soon be razed to the ground.

It is said that when the nest is overturned, no eggs can remain intact. Now is the time to make a choice.

"Haha...are you all scared? If you are still a man, then choose to stand up!"

Seeing that no one was talking and just huddled together with their heads hunched, Yuxiu couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Never mind. She can save people temporarily but cannot save them forever. She should find a way to complete the task and get on the road quickly.

She silently put away the Bluetooth speaker, wondering whether she should find a sharp knife to make it easier to use.

"Let me do it. Although I'm not a man, I have some strength!"

Just at this moment, a burly woman squeezed out from the crowd.

She looked to be around thirty years old, carrying a large package on her shoulders, holding a large, shiny machete in one hand, and holding a little girl of eight or nine years old in the other hand.

"She is the only female butcher in Yangshan County. She is pitiful. Her husband was originally a butcher, but he died of a strange disease a few years ago. After that, she supported the family. Not only did she raise her daughter, but she also had to treat her seriously ill mother-in-law and prescribe medicine. Last year, her mother-in-law also passed away. Now, there are only the two of them living in the family..."

Yuxiu turned around and found that Wen Yichen had come over at some point and was standing outside the door of the small attic.

"And us!"

"We're coming too!"

"Let's all go!"

As the female butcher walked towards the city gate, the others were finally moved and they shouted and joined the team.

Everyone already carries self-defense equipment with them when they go out, so there is no need to go back and get it.

As the crowd surged on the street, soon only the elderly, the weak and the sick were left. An old man stood up and said a few words, and those people quickly supported each other and left.
