After passing through the book, our family likes to mention the cannon fodder script

Chapter 22
During the holiday, many daughter-in-laws in the village who married outside were a little worried, and the village head also saw their worries. Fortunately, these young daughter-in-laws were all from nearby villages. Several strong men escorted her back to her natal home to report.

It took three days and two nights to finally evacuate the entire village. When the time for spring planting came, the village head went to the county government office as if nothing had happened, and bought back all the seeds that should be bought this year.

These seeds can also be planted in the mountains. If the land in the mountains is more fertile, the yield may be higher than that in the outside.

During the daytime, there are occasional people walking around in the village, just to hide their eyes and ears.

It had been ten days since they moved into the mountains until the day when the dragon raised its head in February, and the resettlement of houses in the valley was almost done. On this day, Yang Jinwen, Liu Dexin's son Liu Shuli, and several people from the same village came out to patrol. a child.

These children are mainly used to run errands. As long as they find something here, the children will run back to the valley as fast as they can to report the news.

After several days of hard work, the villagers have already dealt with all the wild animals near the valley. In order to ensure the safety of the villagers, the young and strong laborers in the village specially moved the relatively tall stones to the cave bit by bit. Outside, a passage was made with stones. From the outside, it was an ordinary stone passage, and the innermost part of the passage was a small cave that was not very big.

Soon, the child spread the news to the valley, and the noise outside was that King Yu's army was going to the countryside to recruit young men.

Because of the lack of food harvest in autumn, many people ran out of food after the Spring Festival. Suddenly, there were many beggars in the county town. King Yu's army didn't even let these beggars go. As long as they are men, there is no obvious major problem. , they have to be forcibly expropriated, and when they go to the countryside to smoke young men, they will also forcibly buy food from the villagers.

When the villagers in the valley heard the news, they were all very thankful that their patriarch was a wise man who acted decisively enough.

The patriarch didn't dare to send her teenage children to the county seat, so Lu Qingshang volunteered to take her eldest daughter there. The county seat inquired about the news, and before leaving the house, they used the ashes from the bottom of the pot to blacken their faces and body. They were painted and their hair was messed up, so they tied a strip of black cloth, took a basket, and a walking stick, and the two of them set off from the valley.

Although the men in the family are not at ease, after this month of recuperation and training, it is impossible to say that they are completely the same as before, but [-]% to [-]% of them are already there, and now there are four or five strong men. He must be able to beat Ms. Lu Qingshang, who looks thin and weak.

Not long after they walked out of the village, a team of about 20 people came, only the three leaders were wearing armor, and the rest were just dressed in civilian clothes.

Seeing that they were walking in the direction of their village, Lu Qingshang immediately stretched out his hand and waved lightly behind his back twice, and there were two children who had been following them in the bushes, and immediately ran back.

When he heard that an army was about to enter the village, the young man on patrol in the village immediately withdrew to the mountain with the child.

When the group of people passed by Lu Qingshang's mother and daughter, they blocked their way.

The leader in armor carefully observed the mother and daughter, and found that they were indeed an old woman and a petite pregnant woman.

"Where did you two come from? Where are you going?"

"I...I...I..." Lu Qingshang pretended to be afraid of these soldiers, stammering nervously, and trembling all over.

"Mother, don't worry." The little daughter-in-law next to her with a puffy belly hurriedly held her hand to comfort her.

"Brother official, my mother will be like this when she is nervous. There is no way to come out this early in the morning. The family has run out of food. The man has been missing for almost half a month. It took me a long time to find him when I came to Yangjia Village. Yes, my man used to have a good time with a man named Guangzong Yaozu in this village, but now we can't find him at all, so our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can only go back to the county now." Yang Yuling used her The crappy dialect, although the speech is a bit stuttering, but the words are clear after all.

The armored man in the lead looked at their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who were black and thin, and the basket they were holding was still empty, so he didn't suspect anything, but when they heard that they didn't see anyone at all, he looked puzzled.

What about a village?How could there be no one?Recently, their work has been extremely difficult. There are no people in the nearby villages, and many of them have said that they have gone out to beg.

They did catch a lot of beggars in the county town, but there are too many people in this village. In some villages, there are only old, weak, women and children, and children under five or six years old.

The higher-ups told him to act quickly, but there is no one here, so it is useless to act quickly?

When they came to Yangjia Village, they found out that it was true. The houses where no one lived were also moved to empty houses.

Is this news in advance, or is it because of the drought that you can't survive?There is no grass growing in the whole village, and it doesn't even look like plowing the ground. Is it because of the drought that the whole village went out to escape? ?

Now it's troublesome. No one here can catch the top, and I don't know how to punish them. Damn it, why didn't you leave early?Leaving late or not?It's time to go.

Lu Qingshang took his eldest daughter and searched the entire county, and found that except for those old people who couldn't walk, the rest were children under six or seven years old, and the women at home.

The shops are basically closed, especially the food and grocery stores, and all the gold and silver jewelry stores are also closed, and all the shops that usually sell breakfast on the street and open small restaurants are also closed.

There are a lot of beggars on the street, and they all look like they are half dead, which is a bit scary to look at.

"This has just begun. How will we live in the next few years? Many people may not be able to make it through." Lu Qingshang felt a little emotional, and with their limited abilities, they couldn't save many people at all. It is best to protect yourself and your clan. important.

The two of them had been out for more than a day. They were afraid that their family members would worry, so they trotted when they walked back.

Walking from the mountain road on the county side, you need to cross a mountain that is not very high before you can reach the mountain in their village.

The entire hillside has been stripped bare, no one can see even a root of grass, and the trees on the mountain have been stripped bare, leaving some with thicker trunks, which cannot be cut without a machete.

The mountain next to the county seat is a big cliff at the end. Generally, people in the county town will not come here to dig wild vegetables or collect firewood.
