Chapter 411: The Southern King Surrenders at Abyss River
When food prices climbed so high that no one could afford them, Qingshan City fell into total chaos.
“Are they going to let us live or not?!”
Shouts like this spread, and gradually, people in Qingshan City began to riot. They stormed grain shops and broke into homes to steal rice and flour.
When matters got out of hand, chaos exploded completely.
As the unrest erupted, the authorities immediately sent people to put it down. But the mobs were too big. With no choice, they called in troops from outside the city.
For a while, the whole street rang with the sounds of smashing and fighting.
“Those government soldiers get food! And we get none! The Righteous Army? What a joke! Time to rebel! Screw this!”
“Kill them!!”
But these people were starving, hadn’t eaten a full meal for days. How could they defeat these well-trained soldiers?
