Chapter 991: Kang Rong's Death

"Those who are brave enough can go into the mountain warehouse and move the food to the city gate, and publicly help the Kang family donate food and fodder to fight the enemy. I, Kang Rong, and the Kang family will bear the consequences of this matter. Your Majesty is from a military background, and he also appreciates these good deeds of all parties uniting to fight the enemy!" Kang Rong continued to shout on the other side.

After shouting several times, my heart sank, and finally a porter stepped forward: "I, Lin Mujia, am alone and I am not afraid of anyone's revenge. I dare to help Master Kang and the people of Northeast Province move these supplies to fight the enemy!"

After saying that, he rushed into the mountain warehouse. As soon as he entered, he was stunned with shock.

What you see are bags of grain that stretch as far as the eye can see. It seems that the granary is as big as the mountain, and it has more than one floor.

It was stacked layer upon layer, reaching up to the top of the mountain. The entire granary was like a tall building in the capital's Wuyuan...

Lin Mujia was shocked, and only came to his senses when his porter brothers rushed in and bumped into him.

Lin Mujia cried, "My grandparents, parents died of starvation. My sisters sold themselves into slavery just to have food... Everyone says that food is precious. In a famine, there's no food. There's nothing we can do. It's all God's fault for not letting the crops grow more. God doesn't want us farmers to survive."

But look at this rich family’s private granary, it’s filled with grain. Is God trying to stop the farmers from living?

These are the rich gentlemen who have brought all the food that God has bestowed upon this land into their own homes!

"Brothers, move. Even if we die today, we must move a batch of food to the city gate to offer as a tribute to fight the enemy! Otherwise, when the Dongmo people attack, we will be the ones who die miserably!" Lin Mujia called out and was the first to move the food.

Lin Mujia carried a sack of grain weighing 100 kilograms and rushed out, calling out to the crowd outside the mountain granary: "Fellow villagers, this is full of grain, hurry in and move it... Even if you don't want to move it, you have to go in and take a look. Master Fugui's granary is completely different from the granaries our ancestors have known!"

The way he shouted these words was simply unbearable.

"Let's go in and take a look. We are not moving food, but we have to read the gossip." Many people were itching to get in and rushed to the mountain warehouse.

Silence, screaming, fainting!

Five people fainted in a short while.

The old farmers cried and cursed: "Oh my God, the grain is scattered on the ground and trampled into the lime. If it were sold to us, the price outside would never be so high!"

"Nine cents for beans and grains, nine cents! It's so expensive that I might as well bite my own flesh to fill my stomach. Beans and grains used to be three cents a pound, wuwuwu!"

Several old farmers knelt down and cried, "It's not for nothing. Sell it to us. Then there will be enough food in the market and the price won't be so high!"

"Fine grains, such as rice, millet, wheat and other refined grains." Others exclaimed.

Lin Mujia had already turned back and called out to the old farmers, "Stop crying! Hurry and help Young Master Rong move the grain out. If you delay, something bad will happen. Don't let Young Master Rong down!"

From the name Lin Mujia, we can tell that his family used to have some wealth. He is literate and has some experience. He knows the dangers and difficulties of Kang Rong opening a private warehouse, so he reminds everyone to hurry up!

"Get up, get up and move the grain. Even if we die today, we must move the grain out!" The old farmers took the risk and moved the grain immediately.

"You guys move quickly, we have a vehicle outside the manor gate, bring it in right away, and after we load the grain onto the vehicle, we'll drive to the city gate!" The traveling merchants also took the risk and immediately went to talk to Liang Zhi, then took a group of soldiers under Liang Zhi's command and rushed to the manor gate.

Traveling merchants are all half-gangsters, and they often have to risk their lives. But in the past, when they risked their lives, they only protected their own goods. This time, if they risk their lives and succeed, it will shock the world and go down in history!

It's really worth dying for.

With the escort of the Liang army, the merchants successfully drove their vehicles into the village. They used mules and manpower to carry food, and after working for most of an hour, they filled 132 carts with food.

The porters and farmers carried out nearly two hundred sacks of grain on their shoulders.

"Everyone, follow me. Let's help Young Master Yong deliver the food to the city gate, donate the food, and help the country fight the enemy!" Liang Zhi shouted, riding his horse in front, with a sack of food on his horse's back.

Liang Zhi also sent two powerful personal soldiers to escort Kang Rong in the carriage to prevent Kang Rong from being killed and the righteous act of opening a private warehouse to donate grain from being interrupted halfway.

"Master Rong, don't go. It's not too late!" Master Kang Zhuo and the second leader Kang shouted, and brought up his relatives: "This matter is too big. Once you leave the village, even the adults can't protect you. Think about the wife and the fourth young master!"

Kang Yong said only one sentence: "The ancestors of the Kang family appeared in my dream and told me that donating food and fodder to help the Wei Dynasty fight the enemy is what everyone in the Wei Dynasty should do. The descendants of the Kang family who have been receiving royal salaries for generations should be the first to do this righteous deed!"

court death!

A person who betrays his ancestors!

Master Kang Zhuo cursed Kang Rong in his heart and hurriedly took people to chase after him.

But Kang Rong was protected by the Liang family army, porters, farmers, and traveling merchants. They chased him but did not dare to actually intercept him.

How to stop?

Are you going to stop it at the risk of your life?

They are not as stupid as Kang Rong, they still want to live a little longer.

Kang Rong was also amazing. He kept saying along the way that he donated food and fodder to the country to fight the enemy because his ancestors had told him in their dreams.

The captain of the martial arts team guarding the gate of the village still remembered what Kang Rong said, that using a knife to stop Captain Liang was treason.

After hearing Kang Rong's voice in the dream again, he didn't dare to stop her.

Kang Rong's "donate food to aid the war" team successfully left the village and ran towards the city gate.

Halfway through...

Whoosh whoosh!

Whoosh whoosh!

He was unexpectedly attacked by a hidden arrow.

Flaming arrows shot from the houses beside the avenue, setting the grain transport team on fire and the people carrying the grain on fire. The team immediately began to scream in pain.

"Shield soldiers, defend and counterattack!"

"Everyone, hide behind the shield soldiers!" Liang Zhi ordered, his face dark. He didn't expect that the powerful family would dare to shoot arrows to kill Kang Rong outside the capital city.

"Master, Master, what should we do?"

"I won't deliver the food anymore. Don't kill me!" Some porters and farmers threw down their burdens, raised their hands, and tried to escape from the grain transport team.

"Come back, if you leave the team you will be targets!" Liang Zhi shouted.

But the villagers didn't understand any of this. Those who were scared continued to run around, thinking that they would be fine as long as they ran away from Kang Rong's team.

Whoosh whoosh!

Whoosh whoosh!

"Ah!" Soon several people were hit by arrows.

Fortunately, the arrows were not aimed at them, but at Kang Rong, so they were only injured in their hands and feet.

"Run back, run behind the shield soldiers, otherwise you will be shot to death by arrows!" Liang Zhi shouted again.

This time, many people who had escaped were called back.

Whoosh whoosh!

But the sharp arrows were still shooting towards the carriage, as if they would not stop until Kang Rong was killed.

Fortunately, in the carriage where Kang Yong was sitting, the Liang family's personal soldiers surrounded Kang Yong and used their armor to block the sharp arrows that pierced the wall of the carriage.

However, the arrows were tied with pine oil, and more than a dozen rockets fell on the carriage, setting it on fire and burning.

"Master Yong, don't panic. This little fire won't kill us. Wait a little longer. The city defense army will be here soon." said the personal soldier.

Soon, Captain Yue and Captain Fan arrived with thousands of soldiers and horses.
