Under the eyes of the worried peasants, who were watching from in front of the gates, groups of five, seven, ten or twenty men, some in city clothes, others in peasant clothes, ran past, taking the road to Pitesti.
Here and there, a man stops exhausted and falls, cursing, in the middle of the road. The others groan, grit their teeth and keep running...
