Rise, the people suffer; Death, the people suffer.
In this era of low productivity, the common people were always the lowest level of exploitation and oppression.
If they encountered a natural disaster, it would be difficult for them to survive.
As Chen Zhan led his army out of Liaoxi, the tragic scenes he saw along the way made his mood even more depressed and heavy.
There was an indescribable feeling.
He had personally witnessed the subversive act of exchanging children for food no less than ten times.
Not to mention eating Guanyin clay.
Reality proved that when a person was extremely hungry, they could really do anything.
"Sigh! If even Youzhou was like this, it would be even more unimaginable in other places.”
Looking at the refugees on both sides of the official road, Chen Zhan could not help but sigh.
These refugees were dressed in ragged clothes and were all skin and bones. Their faces were haggard and their eyes were dull, like zombies.
However, when they saw the army charging over, they quickly and carefully avoided it.
It could be seen that the desire to live was still there.
It had to be said that the resilience of humans was indeed terrifying.
"They're all damned Yellow Turban thieves. Why are they rebelling?？”Zhang Fei cursed beside Chen Zhan.
His family was a butcher, so he was quite well-off. The tragic scene he saw along the way could be said to have subverted his three views.
"Although the Yellow Turbans are abominable, the main reason is the natural disaster and the Imperial Court's inaction.”
Guan Yu stroked his long beard, his voice full of emotion.
After he committed a crime in his early years and left his hometown, he went to many places. He could be considered to be knowledgeable, so he was not as simple as Zhang Fei.
"The Imperial Court and the ministers of the aristocratic families do not care about the lives of ordinary people.”On the other side of Chen Zhan, Juyi coldly spoke.
Judging from his tone, he did not have a good impression of the Great Han Imperial Court at all. He was also a person with a story.
"Alright, let's not talk about this."
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little depressing, Chen Zhan immediately interrupted this topic.
The current Great Han Empire was like a tree that was about to wither. Only by cutting it down could it give birth to new life.
"Report…"
Right at this moment, several sentry cavalry galloped over.
"General, a large number of Yellow Turban bandits have been discovered twenty miles away. According to my observation, there should be twenty to thirty thousand of them.”
"We still met in the end." Chen Zhan's spirit was shaken as he shouted,"Everyone, speed up!"
"Here!"
Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves rumbled like thunder.
Before leaving, Chen Zhan suddenly shouted to the refugees on both sides,""I am the Governor of Liaoxi, General Chen Zhan.”
"You can head to Liaoxi to seek refuge. It's up to you whether you want to go or not.”
Under the enhancement of Battle Qi, Chen Zhan's voice sounded in the ears of all the refugees.
"Liaoxi Prefecture Governor Chen Zhan? I know who it is. He is the Flying General Chen Zhan who killed so many people that the foreign tribes didn't dare to cross the border. Hahaha, I've decided to go to Liaoxi.”
"So it's General Fei. No wonder he's so majestic. Big brother, I'll go with you.”
"I heard that there are no Yellow Turbans in Liaoxi. Let's go together.”
Among the refugees, there was no lack of knowledgeable people. Under their lead, nearly a thousand refugees on both sides of the official road decided to go to Liaoxi.
At this moment, they could only see the back of Chen Zhan's army leaving.
……
Anning County.
It was a small county with a population of about 50,000 to 60,000.
Because it was the only way to Youbei and the prefectures in western Liaoning, it was more prosperous than the other counties in Youzhou.
But it was precisely because of this that the Yellow Turban Army had their eyes on him.
An Ning County was no longer peaceful today.
Under the city wall, the dense Yellow Turban Army surrounded the entire county city.
"Who is the county magistrate of this city? Come out and speak!？”
In the Yellow Turban army, a man with a long and narrow scar on his face rode his horse to the city gate and shouted.
As he shouted, he raised the two heads in his hands high up.
"It's over, it's all over now!"
On the city wall, the An Ning County Magistrate's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
He was very familiar with the owners of the two heads. They were the ones he had sent to ask Fan Yang for help.
Now that he had been killed by the Yellow Turban, his thoughts were cut off.
"What is Brother Li afraid of? We have 1,000 soldiers and the advantage of the city walls. We don't have to be afraid of these Yellow Turban bandits.”
At this moment, a middle-aged man in battle armor spoke, which made the county magistrate feel much more at ease.
"Cough cough, I've made Brother Wang laugh. I want to see what this Yellow Turban thief wants to do.”
As he spoke, County Magistrate An Ning mustered up his courage and stepped forward. He shouted to the people below,"I am the county magistrate of this city. What do you bandits want?”
"Hahahaha, you said that we are bandits, so we are naturally here to steal things.”
Below the city wall, the scar-faced man laughed wildly." Listen up, all of you. If you don't want to die, surrender as soon as possible."
Otherwise, when I break through the city, none of you will live.”
Arrogant and arrogant.
Scarface's words were filled with killing intent. The scar on his face was like a living centipede, looking extremely ferocious.
"Hiss!"
On the city wall, many soldiers were so scared that their faces turned pale. Even County Magistrate An Ning was so scared that she could not help but tremble.
"Hmph, a bunch of rebels. If you have the ability, come and attack the city.”
At the critical moment, it was the armored man who stood up and shouted angrily to make everyone come back to their senses.
"You don't know how to appreciate favors. Since you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish.”
Scarface wanted to fight, but he was provoked by the armored man and ordered the siege.
"The heavens are dead, the yellow heavens shall be established! Brothers, follow me to break through this city!"
"The heavens are dead, the yellow heavens shall be established!"
Amidst the deafening slogans, the vast Yellow Turban Army surged toward the city wall of Anning County like a tide.
Although it was called an army, apart from three to five thousand people wearing leather armor and holding swords and spears, it was barely considered a small army.
The rest were commoners in tattered clothes, and the weapons in their hands were mostly hoes, shovels, and other farming tools.
It was not an exaggeration to say that they were a group of mobs.
However, at this moment, this motley crew all had fanatical expressions on their faces, but they also erupted with quite a bit of aura.
To put it bluntly, even if 10,000 pigs charged forward together, it was enough to scare people.
