Chapter 105 The Escaped Crowd
Lawrence's complete rebellion further indulged the escape of the people and soldiers. In addition, some squads of rogues took the opportunity to commit some vicious incidents. Before the Chinese Empire's army shot them, the entire area fell into chaos. As time went by, rumors spread more and more widely, and the spread became more and more outrageous. In addition, the promotion of merchants and spies, the white people who received the news set off to leave their new homes and rushed to the ports on the eastern coast, hoping to escape from this continent that was about to fall into chaos as soon as possible and return to their hometown in the continent. Even if they had nothing after returning, it would be better than losing their lives.
The fleeing crowds blocked all ports along the eastern coast, and the merchants with ships took the opportunity to sell their tickets at sky-high prices. Even though they called the owners vampires and butchers, those who hoped to escape had to accept their exploitation.
Several other Governors' districts in Western South America also gradually received news, and panic spread again, and similar chaotic scenes appeared in western South America, and then went inland to the inland.
Antofagasta, Governor of La Plata.
"Rex, hurry up and carry your sister on your back. I finally got on your Vampire Uncle Ship. You can't be late anymore. I believe he will definitely throw it away and we will leave."
Outside a small manor outside the city, a strong white man with a beard sat in a carriage and shouted behind him.
"Nathan, the vampire is also your brother. Our family of four also receives us a hundred silver coins. Damn kid, you shouldn't have helped him before, treating his brother like this."
The middle-aged woman following him said dissatisfiedly.
"Arisa, shut up, you should know how to satisfy yourself. Do you know how much he charges for other people? It's one hundred silver coins per person. Damn guy, his boat has made a fortune even after walking, although he has given us a lot of discounts."
His wife's complaint reminded Nathan again of the thorn in his heart. His younger brother was poor when he was young. He helped him ask all his relatives and friends, and contributed all the silver coins he had saved with great difficulty, so he bought a boat that could run far away. However, when he encountered difficulties, he not only did not repay his kindness, but also shaved a lot, which made him feel frustrated no matter how he thought. His younger brother also said in a tone of giving: "If you were not my brother, I could sell four tickets for a sky-high price."
"Oh my God, please accept this ungrateful boy." Nathan could only pray silently in his heart.
"Nathan, you and Aretha take your sister away with you. I have grown up and want to fight against the Chinese Empire. I will never let them get our territory easily, even if I give my own life."
A young man of seventeen or eighteen years old walked out of the manor hut, holding a teenage loli in his hand.
Nathan jumped out of the carriage and slapped Rex's shoulder hard. Rex reflexedly dodged, but his steps were staggered.
"Damn kid, have you ever seen the power of the Chinese Empire? Do you know the advanced level of their weapons? Have you ever seen a warship that can run at more than ten knots of speed in Wufeng? Do you know that their millions of troops have crossed the Governor of New Spain and headed towards us areas? If you want to die, you can pay the twenty-five silver coins paid to your damn uncle first. He will definitely not return them to me because you didn't get on the boat."
"Child, don't be stupid. You have to know that the masters of this continent are not us. Our ancestors can snatch them from the natives, so of course they can snatch us. This world is fair, isn't it?" Aresa helped her son and daughter who almost fell down and comforted her.
"Damn it, this is the world. Whoever is the strongest can get everything. Am I willing to give up this manor left behind from your grandfather? Haven't you heard that although the army of the Chinese Empire does not kill civilians, they dare to kill all those who resist them. They are yellow people and we are white people. Their eyes look at us are like the eyes of those natives we usually look at. Do you want to stay here as slaves? Think about it, if I am ruled by them in such eyes, I will be cold and grove."
Nathan did not want to lose his only son, so he explained his own tone. If the stubborn son did not listen to him and left, he would probably lose him forever.
"Is there no way? Just give up our home?"
Rex just used his youthful impulse, but asked again unwillingly.
"Of course, if the Spanish Empire could create millions of armies holding advanced weapons sent to us, you know, this is impossible. The civilization and technological advancement of the Chinese Empire are known to the world in the past two years. Rex, you have to recognize the reality. There is no justice in this world, only the cruel laws of the jungle, and the strong prey on the weak. Just like your grandfather, he drove away the natives with his grenade gun in his hand and left us this manor. If our technology exceeds them in the future, then you can counter-take it back, but you can only use this as a wish, and believe that we will not see it in our lifetime."
Nathan is quite pessimistic about the future. He does not want to spread this idea to the young Rex, but he cannot help but recognize the reality at present.
"Rex, don't be stubborn. Leave with us. You have to know how difficult it is for us to get four boat tickets. Many people cannot leave as soon as possible. The longer they stay here, the accident may come at any time. Whether life can be guaranteed or not, I can only pray for God's blessing." Aretha added when she saw Rex's attitude relaxed.
"Ba, bha, bha."
A burst of gunfire came from afar. Nathan reacted quickly and picked up the mezzanine on the ground, pulled up his son, picked up his daughter, and shouted: "Go away, it's getting messy. The bodies of the Bell family next door were found in the forest not far away. Everything was robbed. The damn evildoers and the treacherous businessmen, why are they independent? I can't guarantee that we will stay here and talk nonsense. So what will we face in the next moment?"
Rex also untied the mezzanine on his back and put it in his hand. He jumped into the carriage immediately and glanced at the surrounding situation nervously. Even if there was something abnormal in the distance, he believed that he would shoot immediately.
"Go, go." After the family was seated, Nathan hurriedly drove the carriage forward along the dirt road.
Walking through the woods in front of the manor, there is a small plain in front of it, surrounded by many owners of the Nathan family.
"Hi Nathan, I should be glad you, the old guy, are still alive."
A carriage also drove in the distance, and the carriage was also full of family. It was John, who lived not far away, and both sides recognized each other from afar.
"Yes, old guy, I'm glad you're alive. Have you bought a ticket? I have to take my vampire brother's boat back to Europe."
Nathan was very happy to meet an old friend in such a tense atmosphere.
"Yes, I used most of my wealth to buy the boat ticket for the family. We were lucky, but Daniel was unfortunate. When I passed by his house, I found the body of their family in the grass, and none of the nine people survived."
"Oh my god, damn thugs, who can punish them and save us civilians from threats?"
Nathan moaned in pain as he remembered that Daniel, who was drinking together a few days ago, had now lost his life.
"Nathan, we can only pray that their family can enter heaven for misfortune. Now we may all follow in his footsteps at any time. Don't you know that in the entire South American region, except for independent merchants, there are only thugs and no living space for us people. The soldiers ran away most of the soldiers as soon as they got the news. Do they still rely on them to protect us? Damn, there is one thing I agree with those traitor merchants, and the original tax should not be paid."
"John, do you want to stay and join the Chinese Empire?"
"No, I don't want to be a slave. For example, I will never accept the lives of the Indians in my manor. I just agree with some excuses made by the traitors. At the critical moment, no one can protect us and the tax will be paid in vain. Let's go quickly, Nathan, it is said that the army and fleet of the Chinese Empire are not far away. The ship I was on originally set off tomorrow, but now it seems that I can't leave any later."
Two carriages formed a temporary convoy, one in front and one behind.
"Young men, pick up the weapons in your hands. Now you will be the guardian gods of our team. Do you understand your duties?"
Nathan shouted encouragingly to Rex and the two boys from the John family.
Compared to Rex's brave expression, he understood, the two boys in the John family were much weaker. They raised the coercion in their hands with trembling hands, indicating that they had already understood that their faces were pale and their lips were trembling. Perhaps they were scared by the tragic corpse of Daniel's family just now, and they had not recovered yet, and they were still a little dumb.
"Sorry, Nathan, maybe it's not a good thing to be too obedient. Boys should be more naughty and wild. To protect their family, it seems that we two old guys must come on the stage." John drove the carriage and glanced at the already bulleted meme gun. Then he saw Rex who was dissatisfied in his eyes, and hurriedly added: "Of course, there are also our brave Rex. I believe you are also a brave soldier."
Similar scenes are staged throughout the South American continent, riots, robberies, and all the vicious events that humans can do are staged on this continent that is about to lose control. Every day, many people are injured or dead, and more people can successfully escape by boat.
Many local officers, soldiers and soldiers in the towns were the first to escape. They could better understand what kind of combat power the millions of Chinese Empire troops represented, so they all made the choice of smart people, leaving only thick smoke and corpses everywhere.
