Chapter 188 Peanut Sprouts
Recently, Princess Mingyue has come to the vicinity of the city of Dadu.
However, Princess Mingyue did not launch an attack immediately.
I originally thought that after this period of drought, there would be no one in Dadu, but I didn’t expect that there were still people in Dadu, and quite a lot of them.
Someone means something, it means there is water in it.
But it's already hell on earth in there.
Princess Mingyue didn't dare tell her two good friends about the tragic situation inside, for fear that they would not be able to accept it.
When her spy told her about it, she almost vomited, so she didn't share it with her good friend.
The temperature is high, there is drought, and it is a disaster-stricken era. There are no refrigerators. You can imagine what is left to eat now.
Princess Mingyue told her two good friends that she planned to start attacking Dadu in a week.
The main reason is that there are still some refugees in the territory near Dadu. She wants to take all of these refugees into her own team, regardless of gender, age or status, because she has to take these people in, otherwise they will either die or become food for others.
Miao Xiaomao’s nutrient processing plant has started producing nutrients.
She gave Princess Mingyue ten thousand boxes of goods.
Huang Lingling brought one million tons of snow water to Princess Mingyue.
Princess Mingyue looted almost every city she could along the way.
She used all the looted items to buy supplies.
When he ran out of money, he would call Huang Lingling to go to her store to buy things.
In the ancient world.
Princess Mingyue stood at the gate of Dadu, holding her big belly.
Her belly is very big, and her time here is obviously faster than Huang Lingling and Miao Xiaomao.
She asked the system what the reason was, and the system said it was due to space-time propagation.
Princess Mingyue, with a big belly, stood at the gate of Dadu. There was no trace of her own Dadu here.
If she hadn't seen that they were in the same location on the map, she would have thought she had gone to the wrong place. The city here looked more like the capital in the game.
There are thick city walls, tall wooden gates, and a moat surrounding the city gate. Unfortunately, the moat has dried up, leaving only a deep ditch.
Princess Mingyue only had 80,000 troops at her disposal. Even though it was a drought period, the people in Dadu didn't believe it at all.
You want to attack Dadu with such a small number of people?
The city gates were tightly shut. The people inside didn't even show their faces in response to Princess Mingyue's provocation. They just called out a messenger and said, "Feel free!"
What it means is that you can hit them as you like, and it counts as your ability if you can get in.
The people in the city can’t even get enough food to eat now, so how can they have the energy to defend the city? They all lie down and sleep.
Besides, the city walls are so high and thick, and the people outside have been starving for more than a year. They all look skinny and bony. How could they still have the strength to attack the city?
Maybe they had been hungry for too long, or maybe they had become numb to the disaster, but in any case, everyone in the city was living a lifeless life like the walking dead.
The people inside didn't take Princess Mingyue's words about conquering the city to heart.
This was exactly the effect Princess Mingyue wanted. She placed the refugees she had gathered along the way at the front of her siege team in order to paralyze the people in the city.
Wu Se-hun, the mayor of Dadu City, was having dinner with his family. He was crying while eating, but he had to eat because there was only a few deep wells in Dadu and no water could be found anywhere else.
As for the food, he looked at the piece of meat in his hand and stuffed it into his mouth while suppressing his nausea. He didn't want to starve to death, so he had to eat it even if he didn't want to!
When the soldiers reported that Princess Mingyue of the Dayu Dynasty was coming to attack his city of Dadu, he didn't believe it at all.
He just thought that Princess Mingyue probably knew that he still had water and came to ask him for water.
He told the defenders not to worry about it and just to guard the city walls and prevent anyone from attacking them.
Wu Sehun is still very confident in the city walls of Dadu.
There are only tens of thousands of people outside, and they are tens of thousands of people who are short of food and water.
He would only be interested if Mingyue brought hundreds of thousands of troops.
It can be said that Wu Sehun is completely slacking off.
You can't blame him. He really doesn't want to live anymore. After eating things he shouldn't have, he feels like he's no longer a human being. He's no different from an animal, and now he's just like a walking corpse.
Princess Mingyue didn't expect that when she was about to attack the city, the people inside would let her do whatever she wanted.
What's happening here?
What do you mean?
She didn't understand for a moment.
Originally, she wanted to launch a sneak attack and catch the people inside off guard.
It was her general who said he wanted to notify the other party and test their strength.
But the answer he got was something Huo Jun didn't expect.
Princess Mingyue was preparing to attack Dadu, and even Huang Lingling was very concerned. She would ask Princess Mingyue about her situation almost every day.
Princess Mingyue: "They told me to hit them as I pleased, but I don't know what that means."
The ancient people's thinking process was very strange and it is really hard to understand!
Huang Lingling: "I guess he doesn't want to live anymore. I can guess what the situation is like in Dadu right now without you telling me."
Princess Mingyue: "Yes, Dadu is now a living hell. The people inside can no longer be called human beings."
In recent days, Princess Mingyue has also been considering how to deal with the living people inside. Killing them is definitely not allowed, as the most lacking thing now is labor.
If they kill everyone, who will grow crops and vegetables for her?
In the end, all of Princess Mingyue's people were turned into slaves, working exclusively for Princess Mingyue.
Although she wanted to kill them, her subordinates persuaded her that it would be better to keep them to help her herd sheep and horses.

Speaking of growing vegetables, Huang Lingling has recently planted all the vegetables and grains that should be grown.
In addition, she also began to follow the sisters-in-law in the family compound into the woods to dig wild vegetables.
The people here have limited private plots, so even though every household grows a lot of crops, they are still quite old.
But people nowadays can eat a lot because there is not much oil in the food.
What we grow in our own private plot is not enough to eat for the whole winter.
So what can we do? We can rely on the wild vegetables in the forest to solve the problem.
As the saying goes, live by the mountain, eat by the mountain. If you can starve while living by such a large forest, it only means that you are too lazy.
Huang Lingling was on vacation that day, so she, Gu Shufen, and A'gu followed Wang Qiaoyue to a field to dig peanut sprouts.
Of course there are other wild vegetables as well, but the main thing is that Huang Lingling has never heard of peanut sprouts. Can that thing be eaten?
She only knows that peanuts are edible. Wouldn’t she be poisoned if she ate these peanut sprouts?
Wang Qiaoling told her that peanut sprouts were delicious when fried. There happened to be a piece of land where their army used to grow peanuts, so it was a good time to dig up peanut sprouts and eat them.
Huang Lingling was very curious about the peanut sprouts, so she followed Wang Qiaoling to the field.
When they arrived, several family members were already digging in the peanut field.
The white and tender peanut sprouts are similar to bean sprouts, but they are larger and longer.
Gu Shufen naturally knew that this thing was edible. She used to dig this thing shortly after digging peanuts as long as it rained, but the weather here was different.
The peanut sprouts have just emerged a little bit, and this is the time when the peanut sprouts are the freshest and tenderest.
