    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 634

    Jiangnan Province, Hancheng Port.

    "Quick, don't dawdle, move quickly!"

    The soldiers of the Southern Army in strong and sharp clothes were standing everywhere, and the ferocious officers were waving long whips, loudly urging the forced laborers.

    The peasants are carrying newly felled wood, earth and rocks, and are urgently reinforcing the city defense of Hancheng Port.

    Tens of thousands of civilians were busy in Hancheng Port, and if they moved a little slowly, the Southern Army officers whipped them down severely.

    On the towering flagpole, the bloodstains of several hanging heads had turned dark red. They were the civilian husbands who tried to escape last night. After they were captured, they were directly beheaded in public.

    The Qinghe army swept across the prefectures and counties of the southern provinces, making the southern army in Hanchenggang panic.

    Hancheng Port is the home port of the Southern Army Navy, and the residence of Navy General Ye Chun is also here.

    Facing the menacing Qinghe Army, Ye Chun urgently sent people to Dongjiang Province to ask for help from Zhennan General Luo Mingyuan.

    Now there is news that a Qinghe army with a size of four to five thousand people is less than two hundred miles away from Hancheng Port.

    So now Hancheng Port has been under martial law, and the whole city is filled with a chill atmosphere, as if facing a big enemy.

    "The progress of the project needs to be accelerated. The bandit army is only two hundred miles away from us."

    Surrounded by more than a dozen generals, Ye Chun, the navy general, patrolled the city defenses of Hancheng Port.

    ?Seeing the people's urgently strengthening the defense lines of various places for emergency repairs, Ye Chun still felt uneasy.

    The Qinghe army's reputation was so fierce that they wiped out tens of thousands of Li Hong's reinforcements to the south. Now Ye Chun is also full of fear for the Qinghe army.

    Facing the fearless Qinghe army, Ye Chun was really not sure of victory, so he insisted on strengthening the city defense.

    "Is there any news from the general?"

    After inspecting the defense lines of Hancheng Port, Ye Chun also asked about the situation of the reinforcements.

    "The general has ordered the former general to lead an army of 20,000 to come back as the vanguard. It is only half a month's journey to our place."

    "Send someone to remind them again, and say that the bandit army stormed Hancheng Port. We will persist for ten days at most. If they rescue them too late, they will have to collect the corpse for us." Ye Chun opened his mouth and ordered.

    "General, isn't this bad?"

    "What's wrong, if we don't make the situation a little worse, they will take a long time to come to the rescue."

    Ye Chun naturally knew the situation of the southern army, and their navy was at odds with their infantry, so he could only complain.

    "What's going on over there?"

    Suddenly hearing a commotion in the distance, Ye Chun couldn't help frowning.

    An officer strode towards the noisy place, and soon turned back.

    "General, there are refugees who fled here. They fled here to avoid the bandit army. They want to take refuge in the city." The officer reported.

    "How many people are there?" Ye Chun asked.

    "It's estimated to be fifty or sixty thousand."

    "so much?"

    Ye Chun was also surprised when he heard that there were 50,000 to 60,000 refugees gathered in Hancheng Port from all directions.

    "General, there may be spies from the bandit army hiding among the refugees, don't let them into the city."

    "General, think twice, the thieves are very cunning, we have to guard against them."

    The generals are also facing the enemy now, seeing Ye Chun's hesitant expression, they tried to persuade him one after another.

    "Now several large granaries in the Jiangnan Province are occupied by bandit troops. If refugees are allowed to enter the city, our army rations will not be enough and there will be trouble."

    After Ye Chun heard what the generals said, he also realized that if refugees were allowed into the city, the situation would get worse.

    "Send troops to drive them away¡ª"

    Ye Chun felt that it was not a matter for so many refugees to gather in Hancheng Port, so he decided to send troops to expel them.

    "No!"

    After a general of the Southern Army and Navy responded, he immediately pedaled down the city wall.

    Soon, a large group of Southern Army soldiers armed with weapons drove out of the city in a mighty manner, pushing towards the refugees who were crowded outside the city.

    "kill!"

      Seeing the black crowd of refugees crowding outside the city, the soldiers of the Southern Army formed an army formation, and their sharp spears pointed outwards in unison, erecting a cold steel forest.

    Facing the murderous sharp spears, the refugees with their families all retreated in fright.

    "Leave Cold City Harbor immediately, or shoot to kill!"

    An officer of the Confederate Army shouted loudly when he saw the refugees whose faces were tired and muddy.

    Now that the Qinghe Army is sweeping across the prefectures and counties, these refugees don't understand the Qinghe Army, and think that the Qinghe Army is a murderous bandit.

    That's why they flocked to Hancheng Harbor one after another, trying to get the protection of the Southern Army.

    But now the Southern Army raised its swords and asked them to leave. The refugees also stood there, at a loss for a while.

    "Please let us into the city."

    "I beg of you."

    "We just want to hide."

    These refugees opened their mouths in a hurry, begging the soldiers of the Southern Army bitterly, trying to arouse their sympathy.

    However, the officer in charge of carrying out the deportation order also felt that he could not explain to his chief when he saw the messy refugees not leaving.

    "Press it up, if you don't leave, you will be killed without mercy!"

    In order to complete the task as soon as possible, the southern army officers with fierce faces had to take tough measures. After all, their general Ye Chun was watching from the top of the city.

    Following the officer's order, the Southern Army soldiers with sharp spears slowly moved forward.

    The surrounding officers also followed suit, and the orders came one after another, and the Southern Army's queue slowly pressed down on the crowded refugees.

    Facing the spear blades that were pushed flatly, the refugees also turned pale with fright, and retreated one after another.

    The refugees in the front retreated, but the refugees in the back didn't know what was going on, and kept pushing forward.

    For a while, there was chaos outside Hanchenggang City, and soon the soldiers of the Southern Army could not move forward, because there were densely packed refugees in front.

    The officers of the Southern Army were yelling sharply, but in the face of the chaotic refugees, their yelling was of no avail.

    "kill!"

    As a last resort, a stern look flashed across the face of an officer of the Southern Army, and he ordered the assassination.

    A row of cold spears stabbed out fiercely, and the spears easily penetrated the bodies of the refugees who were close at hand.

    The refugees saw the spear piercing through their bodies, their faces were full of pain, they screamed in pain, and they couldn't believe that the imperial army they trusted actually killed them.

    The spear was taken back dripping with blood, the refugees fell down immediately, and the smell of blood began to waft in the air.

    "kill!"

    The soldiers of the Southern Army pushed forward with their spears straight, and the refugees who were unable to dodge were constantly stabbed down and trampled under their feet.

    "Killed, run!"

    Facing the Southern Army soldiers who were killing them, the refugees fled back in panic like frightened rabbits.

    Countless packages, clothes, baskets, barrels, etc. rolled to the ground one after another, some children also tripped in the chaos, and there was a sudden chaos outside Hanchenggang.

    It didn't take long for the southern army to disperse the 50,000 to 60,000 refugees gathered, and Ye Chun, the general of the navy at the head of the city, let out a long sigh of relief.

    "The order will continue to be expelled, and anyone who dares to approach Hancheng Harbor will be killed without mercy!"

    Facing the countless refugees outside the city, Ye Chun was worried that the Qinghe army would be mixed in, so he directly issued a death order and did not allow the refugees to approach Hancheng Port.

    But Ye Chun ignored one thing, that is, the wives and children of the tens of thousands of civilian husbands they forcibly recruited are among the refugees outside the city.

    When those civilian husbands learned that the Southern Army was violently expelling refugees outside the city, they were all filled with righteous indignation, and their chests were full of anger.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
