"My mother is the same..."
"......"
Seeing this, Xiaowen and Xiaowu were at a loss as to what to do.
Because what they said was true, their family members were indeed sick and looked quite ill.
After some discussion, Xiao Wen hurried to report to Zhang Feimo.
"Place the sick first!" Zhang Feimo ordered.
"Sir, I'm afraid this is not a good idea. If we take in the old, weak, sick and disabled first, I'm afraid we won't be able to survive. Food is fine, but medicinal materials are also a considerable expense."
Ji Xiangfeng couldn't help but persuade.
He said it would be better if these old, weak and sick people could survive.
If they can't survive, there is no choice but to let them die outside the city gate.
It’s no wonder Ji Xiangfeng thought so. In fact, it is much more difficult to accommodate an elderly, weak, sick or disabled person than to accommodate an ordinary refugee.
In terms of food, medicinal materials, and manpower care, it is time-consuming and laborious.
"Do as I say!" Zhang Feimo insisted.
Of course he knew what they were talking about, and he also had his own considerations. He couldn't bear to watch these people die at the city gate.
Moreover, if something happens to their families, it would be even more difficult to resettle these refugees.
If they hate Heshan County deep in their hearts, how can they get along well with the people here?
As the city gates opened, refugees outside poured in.
Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu quickly took hundreds of yamen runners to guard the city gate, making sure to check every one of them.
As soon as the city gate was opened, the refugees began to crowd in again.
For a moment, it was simply impossible to sustain it.
The big man beside him shouted, "No fighting or grabbing, enter the venue in an orderly manner, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless."
Although the refugees were frightened by the threats of the yamen runners, they still complained.
At this time, a drizzle began to fall from the sky.
As it is spring now, the weather is still a little chilly.
But the refugees outside are poorly dressed and it is difficult for them to avoid getting sick.
As the rain got heavier, the voices of the yamen runners were buried in the crowd again...
In such a noisy crowd, who can pay attention to what they say?
"Everyone, please note that if you fight for it, you will be driven out of the city gate. If you can enter the city, everyone will be given a bowl of porridge. Do not fight for it."
As the city gates opened, Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu shouted loudly to maintain order.
Trying to use this method to maintain the current situation.
"Everyone, please note that the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled should line up in front. The sick must have family members by their side to take care of them. If they are not sick, they will not be allowed to enter..."
But the refugees at this time could not hear them talking, and when they saw the city gate open, they immediately became chaotic.
"If you continue like this, sir, I'm afraid people will get trampled and exposed." Hu Yuhao was anxious.
They stood on the city wall and had a clear view of the situation below.
"Close the city gate!" Zhang Feimo threw out three words.
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Just as all the refugees were rushing towards the city gate, there was a loud "bang" and the city gate was suddenly closed.
This move completely panicked the refugees.
If they still held such great hope just now, thinking that they could have a place to rest in the evening.
