Chapter 1255 Conflict Zhao Danqing, who pulls the wind
"Stop what you want!" the captain shouted, but he was a little panicked inside, as did the soldiers behind him.
Hearing the commotion, they hurried over, but they didn't expect so many people to gather, and the black pressure was overwhelming, and there were nearly a thousand people. Once a conflict broke out, their more than 20 soldiers would definitely not be able to cope with it.
"What are we going to eat? Why do you have something to eat, should we ordinary people starve to death?" someone shouted in the crowd.
"Yes, we want to eat!" all of a sudden everyone was brought into their arms, and they roared loudly, and the sound shook the sky.
The captain wants to explain to the civilians that it's not that they don't give you food, it's that they really don't have food. But at this moment, even if he shouted out his throat, it would be useless, and he could not calm the excitement of the civilians at all.
"They don't give us food, let's get it ourselves!"
"Yes, let's get it ourselves!"
"Go to the steel mill, there must be food there!"
The increasingly agitated civilians began to move forward, slowly closing in on the group of soldiers.
The captain hesitated slightly, raised his hand and threw a grenade to the side, and with a loud bang, everyone's shouts stopped abruptly, and the civilians stopped moving forward.
"You'd better stop, go back to the settlement and wait!, Lord Commander has sent a message to the surrounding territories, and food will arrive soon. If you continue to make trouble, it will be a rebellion, and you will be killed!" shouted the captain.
"Shoot, kill!" the soldiers shouted in unison, and even the crossbow reached their arms.
The agitated emotions of the civilians on the other side were suppressed, and many people showed panicked expressions. As the bottom of society, there is a natural fear of soldiers, nobles and wealthy people, just now it was just a fever in the head, but now it looks like a grenade and a bow and crossbow. All scared.
Seeing that the civilians were shocked, the captain breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "The two commanders also want to distribute food, but there is no food in the steel mill now......
Before he could finish his words, the crowd shouted again: "Don't listen to him, they didn't send a message to the surrounding territories at all." Otherwise, it would not have been possible for four days without moving! They definitely don't want to spend money on supplies......
"That's right, they just want to hold us steady and leave when the people from the stars come. ”
"Yes, go to the steel factory, even if there is no food, we can exchange steel for money, and flee to the surrounding territories!"
"Don't be afraid of them, they have the ability to kill us all, and we'll starve to death if we don't have anything to eat anyway......"
After a few words, the common people lost control of their emotions again and stepped forward with red eyes.
The captain is going crazy, and he is about to succeed. As a result, he was in a state of failure, and now he was eager to pull out a few of the people in the crowd who were talking and beat them to death.
"Captain, what should I do?" a soldier in the back asked in a low voice, is it really killing.
"Retreat, find two people to quickly return to the steel plant and report this to the commander!" The captain gritted his teeth and said, of course he couldn't really kill people, so that the civilians of the entire Minggang City would go to the opposite side of the Star Leader, which would have a great impact on the reputation of the Star Leader.
The last two soldiers pulled their legs and ran back. The captain led the remaining soldiers to point their crossbows at the advancing crowd and slowly retreated.
"They're scared! They don't dare to do it!" the civilians let out a cheer. The courage is growing, and the speed under the feet is getting faster and faster......
At the same time, such things continued to happen in the entire city of Minggang, many patrol soldiers were forced to retreat, and more than a dozen civilian groups of thousands of people gathered in the direction of the steel plant.
Soon after. Li Meng and Wang Bo in the steel plant received the news, and the two knew what was going on as soon as they heard it, there must be someone inciting the people, otherwise it would be impossible to gather so many at once.
"It must have been manipulated by other forces, trying to rob the steel mill!" Li Meng slapped the table hard.
"Thinking of this, they actually took advantage of the civilians who were affected by the disaster!" Wang Bo also looked angry. The first thing they did when they recovered from the disaster was to set up their defenses. But I didn't expect the other party to use such a despicable means.
"They want to create chaos and then fish in troubled waters!" the other party's methods are very clear, but they are helpless. You can't kill all the people. It's not okay to retreat, how can you bring so much equipment, and there are a lot of injured craftsmen and workers.
The two were at a loss, and hurriedly circled around the room, but there was no way to solve it. The soldiers outside had retreated to the edge of the steel plant, and more than a dozen groups of civilians had gathered together, and tens of thousands of people had gathered together with even greater noise.
Li Meng and Wang Bo finally couldn't stay still, and led people to appear outside the steel plant, and shouted loudly: "Don't be excited, don't be instigated by others, there is really not much food in the steel plant now! The materials are on the way to be transported, everyone hold on for two more days!"
"If there isn't much food, it means that there is food, everyone rushes in, and they take as much as they want! If they hadn't demolished the city wall at the beginning, how could so many people have died in Minggang City! I've heard about it, and the people in Linhai City will be fine! Now we are like this, it is completely caused by them!"
"Yes, I also heard that Linhai City is fine, they are all responsible!"
"Rush in and rob them of all the steel! With steel, we can go to other territories to exchange money for food, and we can live!"
The mood of the common people had been stirred up to the extreme, and those at the front had already run and rushed to the steel mills.
Li Meng and Wang Boya were about to be crushed, but tens of thousands of people gathered, and they couldn't find the instigator at all.
"Get ready to do it!" Li Meng took a deep breath and raised his right hand, and all the private soldiers and soldiers raised their repeater crossbows. Now this situation can only be suppressed, but even so, it may not be able to block the impact of tens of thousands of people.
Seeing that the civilians were getting closer and closer, Li Meng's raised right hand was about to be put down. At this moment, suddenly there was a long whining sound from high in the sky, which was low but shook people's eardrums.
"Huh?" Li Meng was stunned for a moment, looked up, and saw more than a dozen black dots constantly magnifying in his line of sight, and in a few seconds, more than a dozen night owls with a wingspan of more than ten meters stopped above everyone's heads.
"Woo~" The night owl that stopped flipped its wings violently, and a strong wind rolled up, blowing so that it was difficult for people to open their eyes, and the hundreds of civilians running in front were blown into a rolling gourd, and the people who followed behind were also staggering, unable to move an inch.
Then, as soon as the night owl's claws were released, more than a dozen large packages weighing thousands of pounds fell from the sky and fell in front of the civilians with a thud. Above the head of the night owl at the front, Zhao Danqing's figure appeared.
"Everyone retreated quickly, the supplies were already in transit, and among these packages was the first batch of food that was delivered, and it would be distributed in a while!" Zhao Danqing stood in the wind, his expression was cold, and he couldn't say anything.
"Don't believe him, the food they transported with the demon beast is obviously for their own people, and they will only ...... when they see us besieging the steel plant" The crowd shouted again.
But immediately after a violent bowstring vibrated with a "boom!", the words came to an abrupt end! (To be continued......
