Chapter 624: Xiliang horses, running rampant across the world!【1】

Mid-fourth month!

The weather was gradually turning warmer, but Luoyang was becoming more and more panicked.

As more and more commoners fleeing the war from Jizhou, Yanzhou, Yingchuan, and Yuzhou poured into the pass, there were more and more rumors about the commanderies of the world.

The commoners who fled described the flames of the Way of Peace uprising as having burned every inch of the Great Han.

Officials in various commanderies were killed, powerful clans were looted, and the Huang Jin rebel army captured cities and seized strongholds, sweeping across eight provinces with an irresistible momentum.

Youzhou, Jizhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou—everywhere there were Huang Jin rebels.

There were also rumors that Zhang Jiao had already ascended the throne and declared himself Emperor in Jizhou.

There were also rumors that the armies sent by the imperial court had all been wiped out.

And there were rumors that the Huang Jin rebel army had already reached Xuanmen Pass (Hulao Pass).

Outside Luoyang, there were rumors everywhere, and the commoners and officials were all panicked.

Because of this, Liu Hong, who lived in the imperial palace, worried that the commoners around Luoyang would cause chaos, and issued an order again.

Those who had previously believed in the Way of Peace, whether officials or commoners, were all to be arrested and beheaded.

And he ordered the strict closure of the eight passes of Luoyang, and no commoners were allowed to enter.

If any refugees from outside were found, they were all to be arrested.

For a time, Luoyang was once again filled with rolling heads.

Inside and outside Luoyang, it had reached the point of talking about the "Peace" with fear.

Although the weather was getting warmer, Luoyang no longer had the prosperous and bustling scene of the past.

The gates of Luoyang were closed, and commoners were not allowed to enter or exit at will.

Those living in the city were panicked, fearing that one day the Huang Jin rebels would break through the pass, surround Luoyang, and trap the people in the city to death.

And those living outside the city were even more worried, fearing that one day the rebels would come and loot their families and property.

There were nearly a million people near Luoyang.

But the vast majority of these people lived outside Luoyang.

As long as the rebels came, I'm afraid no one would be spared.
