Become the city lord from today
Chapter 551
Limestone City is located at the junction of the inland and western lands, and it takes about five days to reach from Xiyang City.
At this time, the limestone city has been flooded for most of the time, many civilians are standing on the city wall, fortunately, the wall of the limestone city is stone brick, but it can't accommodate many people, more people still got rafts, and then tied to heavy objects with ropes to avoid being washed away.
The walls were full of civilians, people were standing, squatting, and lying down, the civilians were starving, they had been trapped for three days, and they had not eaten.
Three days ago, the flood came too suddenly, and the flood surrounded the limestone city overnight, and then in just half a day, the ground of the limestone city was flooded, and in the next three days, the water rose higher and higher, soaking most of the limestone city in the water, and many civilian mud wall houses collapsed.
"Alas... If this continues, we will all starve to death. An old man sighed helplessly.
"I'll go and beg the men again, and ask them to lend us some wheat." A strong middle-aged man said in a low voice, he was wearing a suit of armor and a bearded face.
"Taki Knight, don't go, how can they be willing to borrow wheat, it's not that all noble merchants are as kind as Miss Dalena."
The old man waved his hand and persuaded, "Beware that they will insult people again." "
"I'll try again." Taki hesitated, then insisted, "Maybe there will be one or two good people?" "
Taki is a knight of Limestone City, and instead of leaving with the Limestone City Lord and them, he stays behind to help the commoners, which makes him loved by many.
Last year's flood tower base was the same, but I didn't expect that this year there was a big flood, and it was even stronger than last year's flood, which was three or four days after the water trend did not decline, but there was a trend of rising.
If it goes on like this, it won't take two days, everyone will have to soak in the water and wait for death, and they will only be afraid of being taken away by the water on the raft.
"Alas... The Taki Knight is really too upright. The old man looked at the base of the tower, which was struggling to advance on the city wall.
He turned his head to look in the direction of Taki's advance, where hundreds of ships were docked, and a dozen or so boats near the city wall were full of people, these ships were a ship named Miss Dalena, she was willing to let civilians on board and land, and she also saved many civilians.
And the remaining more than a hundred ships were all unwilling to let civilians on board, not even some wheat. The old man also felt normal, after all, no one is a selfless person, let alone these nobles and merchants, and the kind merchant nobles are always a minority.
"Tread, tread..."
"Guys, please let me." Taji said softly, there are too many people on this wall, and you must be careful not to step on people.
"Knight Taki, are you going to find them again?"
"Don't go, those people won't sympathize with us and demean themselves."
“......"
The commoners were persuading Taki not to go to the nobles and merchants, and last time they remembered the nobles, who actually asked Taki to jump into the water and swim to the ships to meet and negotiate, but in the end they were tricked, and the people would not give the commoners wheat to eat.
"It's okay, I'll just ask." Kiwen laughed gently. He can't make everyone wait here to die, what way to always try.
He was originally an orphan, he grew up eating the food of his neighbors, it was these simple civilians who let him grow up alive, as long as he can help everyone, what is the insult?
Dalena was now standing at the top of the cabin of the main ship, looking at the civilians on the board, the civilians on the city wall, and far away, all her eyes were water.
"This big flood really didn't come at the right time, it has been delayed for three or four days, and I really don't know when it will recede." Dalena said bitterly, the time she promised His Excellency Liu Feng was delayed again, which made her a little unsure how to face His Excellency Liu Feng's trust.
Now the speed of the ship cannot be raised at all, the speed of the daily advance is like that of a turtle, and the wind direction is not right, causing the fleet to stop, and many ships do not keep up with them.
"Poof..."
The sound of falling water attracted the attention of many people, as well as Dalena, who saw a figure swimming hard with a log in the direction of Jesse and Kunzhan's boat.
"Taki Knight, come back quickly, it's too dangerous."
"Don't go, even if we starve to death, we can't ask them."
“......"
Dalena quietly looked at the civilians on the city wall, listened to their cries, sighed, and muttered, "I can't help much, and the people on our ship have to be raised." "
She has already distributed most of the wheat, but unfortunately there are nearly 10,000 people here, and the little wheat she brought with her is not enough for everyone to eat.
"I hope this flood will subside soon." Dalena blinked her cyan eyes, looking at the water in the distance, the downstream section is even worse, I am afraid that even the city wall will be flooded, this flood is too widespread, except for some high places, the rest are all flooded.
"Hahahaha... Who got you up? Get out of here. "
", do you think you, a pariah, can come up here?"
"Still want wheat? Take coins and buy them! One silver coin per pound, this is cheap enough, right? Hahahaha..."
"Poof..."
Taki clenched his gums, his forehead was bruised, and he kicked his legs hard, these nobles became more and more excessive, and sure enough, the nobles in the world were as black.
"Taki Knight, come up quickly, you shouldn't go, it's too dangerous."
"How can those nobles help us, Taki Knight, you don't make any more mistakes, we will be fine."
“............"
"Hey, everyone, look, there's a fleet upstream."
