Farm games to survive the apocalypse
Chapter 49 Ancient War World 8
After waking up the next day, the group planned to go to the city to buy some things, but the grain shops in Lancheng were strictly controlled and purchases were limited, so they couldn't buy much. But other groceries and the like could still be bought at will. After looking around, everyone decided to settle down first and then come to the city to buy things.
The group asked people in the city and looked at the map, and finally decided to settle in a small mountain village near the mountains and forests. This mountain village is called Liangshan Village. They can usually settle in the village and run to the mountains when encountering problems.
The group drove to the entrance of Liangshan Village. Seeing so many outsiders, many villagers ran out to look around. Jiang Wei and others went to find the village chief first to discuss things. They also knew that it would be difficult for outsiders like them to settle down easily without paying a lot of money.
Xiao Chen is a lively person and greeted the village chief first.
"Hello, village chief. We are here to escape the war. We think this place is a beautiful place with clear water and beautiful scenery. There is no war and it is a good place for feng shui, so we would like to stay here."
The head of Liangshan Village stroked his beard and said, "Since you are all refugees, it is indeed not easy. However, there are so many of you that it may be difficult to arrange for you to settle in our village."
Seeing this, Xiao Chen stepped forward and whispered to the village chief: "We also understand that it is not convenient for the village to accommodate such a large group of us, but we will not let you stay here for free. We will give you compensation." After saying that, he handed out a silver ingot.
The village chief's eyes lit up with a smile, and he took it naturally and said, "It's not easy for everyone, why don't you take out 100 taels of silver and give it to the villagers, then everyone will be happy."
Xiao Chen thought to himself that he was really greedy, but he still agreed, "Of course, of course."
When Li Qingruo left, he took away all the savings of the Li family, so one hundred taels was more than enough.
So the group settled down in Liangshan Village with peace of mind. Jiang Weirang, the village chief, assigned them places near the foot of the mountain, and everyone lived together without dispersing.
Jiang Wei finally had her own room. She took out a bowl of bright red strawberries and started eating them. She finally had her own private space. These days, she had been hanging out with other people. Some things were difficult to reveal, and eating was not convenient. Now, she could finally eat whatever she wanted.
"It seems like I have to say the space is bigger next time. No matter what, at least the quality of life will be guaranteed and I don't have to hide it."
The next few days were very quiet and peaceful. The villagers got along with them in a friendly manner because they had received a large sum of money from them. However, the war between the Kang Dynasty and the barbarians was still very fierce, and most of the cities in the Kang Dynasty had fallen.
"The enemy was about to reach the capital. Fortunately, we didn't go to the capital at that time." Xiao Chen said thankfully.
"If we take the capital, the whole country will belong to them. Of course we have to take the capital first," said Li Qingruo.
Yang Le added: "That's true, but if the capital is taken, we in the marginal areas will not be much better off and will be incorporated sooner or later."
"It's okay. We have almost finished the arrangements on the mountain in the past few days. If anything happens later, we can just take people up the mountain." Jiang Wei comforted.
"That's right, we don't have to worry too much." Li Qingruo said, hugging Jiang Wei's arm.
Soon the war spread to the capital city, and countless people were in panic. Even in the market in Lancheng, many people were discussing this matter.
"What should we do? If the capital city is breached, will we have any chance to survive?"
"I heard that the barbarians who occupied the places ate human flesh and drank human blood."
"But what can we ordinary people do? We can't escape anywhere else."

Inside the capital city.
"Liu Quan, I think the situation is not good. Let's leave quickly." Liu Quan's teammates said worriedly.
"Let's go, where can we go now?" Liu Quan said confusedly.
"We have to leave first. With our abilities, it's no problem for us to leave now, but once the enemy enters the city, we won't be able to defeat so many people even if we have three heads and six arms."
"Then what about these people we rescued? They can't leave with us so quickly." Liu Quan asked again.
"Let them catch up or find a way. If they can follow, then follow. If they can't, forget it. We can save them later with the points. Anyway, the points for succeeding in this dungeon are already very generous."
"Okay." Liu Quan finally nodded, and suddenly began to regret that he insisted on going to the capital at that fork in the road. He didn't expect that the seemingly prosperous Kang Dynasty was so weak and it had collapsed like this in such a short time.
It was very wise for Liu Quan and others to leave first. Two days after they left, the capital city had already been captured.
The tall and mighty soldiers rushed into the city like a pack of wolves. The cavalry howled and slashed at the fleeing civilians with their swords. Others swaggered into the homes of the people to rob gold, silver and food, and killed anyone who tried to stop them.
That night, the enemy enjoyed the carnival of victory in a pool of blood and vented their desires to their heart's content.
Jiang Wei and others couldn't help but sigh when they heard the news, but they couldn't care less. They were more worried about the changes in Lancheng. After all, with the change of dynasties, the other cities that have not been affected by the war are bound to be in turmoil. They will have to make a choice whether to surrender to the new dynasty or save the old dynasty.
What Jiang Wei and others did not expect was that before others could make a choice, a third force emerged and civil unrest broke out among the people.
The people who were seriously short of food fled the occupied city, organized themselves into teams, and marched directly towards Lingcheng in a mighty force, not for anything else but to steal food.
Locust plagues and wars put most of the people in the Kang Dynasty in dire straits. In order to survive, they fled, but all the major cities kept them out and the capital was also occupied. With nowhere else to go, they formed their own faction and started a civil riot, trying to steal food and seek a livelihood.
Although these people did not have sophisticated equipment or suitable weapons, they were numerous and gathered under the city walls. The defenders of each city could not kill them at will as they would enemies, which created a dilemma for the besieged cities.
When these people saw that there was no hope of entering the city, driven by hunger, they began to engage in the bad habit of eating "two-legged sheep" again. Suddenly, there was a bloody mess outside the city, and countless people started killing. Others who still had consciences fled in panic, and even more were caught up in the madness.
The tragic scene outside the city made those who wanted to go out to distribute grain stop in their tracks. Their faces turned pale, and they no longer dared to think of stepping out of the city gate.
