Chapter 535: Natural disasters and wars in the world 83

There had been no rain, and the high-yield crops, such as sweet potatoes and potatoes, planted by Ling Xue's subordinates were barely harvested thanks to her secret watering.

Although the yield is not as good as the previous crop, it is almost the same and enough for them to eat.

What's more, they also grow crops such as wheat and corn, so Ling Xue has no shortage of food.

There is no shortage of food here in Lingxue, but there is a severe shortage of food in other places.

More people came to Ling Xue, and the forces that were fighting began to run out of food, and some forces even lacked water.

Although Feng Shisi had no shortage of food and water, there were only so many people in Kyoto, and one less person would be one less.

The result of the power struggle outside the city gate was also announced, and the old emperor's younger brother Qinwang won the final victory.

As a member of the royal family, there is no one who is not interested in the throne. They have been fighting for that chair all their lives. Seeing that victory is in sight, the loyal king cannot give up halfway. He is even unwilling to waste time. He wants to quickly take Kyoto.

"Even if we have to fill the void, we must take Kyoto as soon as possible, otherwise I may never have another chance in my lifetime."

The King Qin was both excited and worried. They all knew that due to natural disasters and wars, only one in ten people survived, and large tracts of fertile land were abandoned. The little food they had saved would not last long. They had to cut the Gordian knot to have a chance of survival.

"I heard from Young Master Shen that the new crop of grain has been harvested in abundance. It would be safer for us to go over and borrow some grain first." Although the military advisor knew what King Qin meant, he still tried his best to persuade him.

"I can't wait any longer, and victory is right in front of me. I won't be willing to give up just like that!" King Qin was unwilling to change his mind.

The military advisor closed his eyes helplessly. He was a little powerless to hold on. It was God's will!

The siege begins!

There will always be brave men when there is a big reward. There are many soldiers and generals who hope to be promoted to the throne and given titles and honors. Wave after wave of soldiers climbed up the city wall using ladders, but more of them were chopped down by the guards of the capital.

Feng Shisi was furious and cursed: "King Qin is a madman. What's the point of attacking the capital if he doesn't just go and grab Feng Shisan's food?"

Everyone around Feng Shisi was silent, no one dared to approach her when the Queen Mother was angry. Feng Shisi was very powerful, and the pressure she radiated was difficult for ordinary people to withstand.

The battle lasted for a month. When King Qin broke through the city gate, he was shot in the eye by Feng Shisi's arrow and died.

The King's Assistance Plan failed!

The loyal subordinates protected the family members who came to defend the king and retreated, leaving Feng Shisi with a broken city wall.

Ling Xue occupied most of the land, but what good was a large amount of land in the face of a natural disaster? Even Ling Xue was unable to replenish the water lost due to the drought.

People were so thirsty that they had no energy left to farm.

Ling Xue chose some slightly larger rivers and used the power of the Water Spirit Pearl fragments to inject clean water into these rivers to ensure that the main veins and tributaries of these rivers would not be cut off.

But doing so can only ensure that the areas around the river have enough water, Ling Xue is powerless in most other places.

Ling Xue ran back and forth, making her a little exhausted.

All of her actions were seen by Feng Shisi, who was very disdainful. How could such a person survive in the mission world?

Ling Xue didn't know what Feng Shisi thought of her, and even if she knew, she wouldn't care. She did things according to her own heart, and didn't care much about other people's opinions.
