Chapter 929 Ariel's Riot
Perhaps because they were not nobles, they did not have much luggage and property to pack, so the first to arrive at the gathering place were the barons.
However, even though they had the least luggage and property among all the nobles in the city, each of these barons still pulled several fully loaded carriages to the gathering place.
Looking at their luggage, Gennady was stunned.
He knew that these nobles were richer than each other, but he did not expect them to be so rich.
More and more nobles came to the gathering place with their families, luggage and property.
The luggage of these nobles was more than each other.
Looking at the pile of luggage of the nobles, Gennady was angry and anxious, because so much luggage would inevitably slow down their evacuation speed.
In order to ensure their evacuation speed, Gennady issued a new order: everyone's luggage should not exceed 3 carriages.
Gennady's new order directly annoyed the nobles.
The nobles protested to Gennady, saying that none of their luggage could be lost, and if they could not leave with these luggage, they would not leave.
Gennady was now completely desperate for these nobles who seemed to have not grown up.
In desperation, Gennady could only ask the soldiers to pull out the long swords from their waists.
After seeing the long swords reflecting the cold light in the hands of the soldiers, these nobles became honest again.
And Gennady also made a harsh statement: "If you don't want to evacuate with us, then you can stay here and wait for death! I will take away all the armed forces in the city. If you want to stay here and wait for death, stay here."
After hearing Gennady's harsh words, the nobles were completely discouraged and obediently reduced their luggage to the weight of 3 carriages.
While the nobles were reducing the amount of luggage, Gennady also began to count the number of people.
After counting the number of people, Gennady found that there was actually one noble who had not come.
That was Grand Duke Zishuval.
Therefore, Gennady hurriedly sent people to the residence of Grand Duke Zishuval to ask what happened.
When the person who was sent to question came back, he said that Grand Duke Zishuval had too many family members, so it would take at least 1 hour to prepare to evacuate Ariel, and asked Gennady and others to wait.
After listening to this person's report, Gennady was so angry that his face turned red.
"Which is more important, life or property?! If you lose property, you can earn it again, but if you lose your life, you lose it. Don't you understand such a simple truth?! Do you really have to wait until the sword of the Britannians is on your neck to understand that money is more important than life?!"
Gennady was so angry that he could only vent his anger by shouting.
The contemporary Grand Duke Zishuval is a lustful person, and this is known to the world.
Relying on his rich family background, the current Grand Duke of the Zishuval family has married 114 wives.
And some of these wives he married were married by normal means, and some were forced to marry by improper means.
The family members that Grand Duke Zishuval mentioned should be his wives.
After all, it is not easy to arrange for such a large family to escape.
Although Gennady can understand Grand Duke Zishuval's difficulties, he has no time and mood to wait for him slowly.
"Go and tell Grand Duke Zishuval! I will only give him 30 minutes. If he does not appear here after 30 minutes, I will abandon him and evacuate with the existing people first. When that time comes, he will be on his own."
The current situation is so serious that it cannot be worse. The vanguard of the Britannia Army is only more than 30 miles away from Ariel. It may attack at any time. It will be too late to evacuate Ariel quickly.
Just when everyone was waiting for Grand Duke Zishuval, something strange happened.
Maybe the nobles leaked the news when they were preparing to evacuate just now, and some servants and waiters in their mansion heard the news that the nobles were going to evacuate. 39
The servants and waiters from various noble houses rushed to the east gate, knelt in front of Gennady's motorcade, and begged Gennady to take them with him.
"Why do you want to abandon us?! Are the lives of you officials and nobles important, but our lives are not?!"
"Lord Iru! Please don't abandon us!"
"Please take us with you!"
...
These people shouted here, and their voices were particularly loud in the quiet night.
And the number of people kneeling in front of the motorcade increased, and more than a hundred people gathered in a blink of an eye.
Looking at these people kneeling in front of the motorcade, Gennady's eyes flashed with reluctance.
If the Britannia Army was farther away from Ariel, Gennady would never abandon these civilians in Ariel.
If the nobles had not been obstructing him, Gennady would have evacuated the civilians in the city to the rear in batches.
It was too late to say anything now. Gennady was in a difficult situation and had no energy to consider the safety of the civilians in the city.
Just as Gennady was struggling and considering how to deal with those who were kneeling in front of the convoy, the nobles suddenly shouted:
"What do you want to do, servants?!"
"Get out of here!"
"Dare to stand in front of my convoy? Are you going to die?!"
"Your Majesty the City Lord, let your soldiers kill these servants quickly! Otherwise, these people will not block the movement of our convoy later."
…
Even though these people were their former servants and attendants, the nobles did not have the slightest sympathy or mercy. They just hoped that these people would leave quickly or die quickly, so as not to affect their evacuation later.
