Chapter 699: "·Food Crisis"

As long as you look at the words that deny yourself and others from different angles, the world will suddenly change.
-Alfred Adler (Austrian psychologist)
On November 6th, the blast fortress hidden in a mountain forest in Broyansong County, the total population living in it finally broke through the 300,000 mark on this day; but the food stored in the fortress was only enough for 300,000 people It takes four days to eat and drink normally.
The storage situation of the original wind strongholds is almost the day when the wind thieves cut off the food; fortunately, their leaders began to reduce the food distribution per person per day as planned a few days ago, which saved some food.
In the absence of external food supplements, no matter how much the wind thieves conserve the use of food, their cut-off date cannot be delayed until the 16th; at the latest on November 15th, the blindly expanded blast thieves will be completely Off grain.
At this time, Montgomery, the leader of the typhoon thief group, was discussing the countermeasures to resolve the food crisis with his confidant generals; only six people could really be trusted by the large gust thief group.
"Chief, before we sent someone to send a letter of appeal to His Royal Highness William, so many days have passed, has His Highness William not prepared enough food for us? If we don’t deliver food, we can’t really sustain it. Now."
Among the seven core members of the Blast Thieves and the most loyal to Prince William, the leader Montgomery is undoubtedly the highest, followed by Auchin Lake who just spoke; he is the blast officer appointed by the Prince William himself, all other than military affairs All matters are handled by him.
"It's not that His Highness William didn't prepare food for us, but that the prepared food couldn't be transported under the eyelids of the orc army; for this reason, His Highness also took the initiative to find Prince Pross and exchange sacrifices for Prince Pross in other ways. Reinforcement for us."
Montgomery, who had just received a letter from Prince William two days ago, hadn’t finished speaking yet, and Paresi, the 10,000 elite warrior who commanded the blast thieves, questioned: "I don’t believe that Prince Prosper can be so kind, but he is Your Highest Competitor!"
"I don't think so." Cunningham, who is the best strategy among the generals, said another way: "I think that for Prince Pross, as long as the price paid by His Royal Highness is enough to impress him, he will definitely not Refusing to exchange an interest with your Highness."
"Alas... I haven't waited until I thought about it, or my lord wouldn't have to look down to look for Prince Pross." Mountbatten, who was born in the Onassis family, is the second grandson of the Duke of Columbine, and is very close to Prince William. brothers.
Of all the core members of the Blast Thief Group, including Montgomery, only Mountbatten is a young man in his twenties, and the other six are experienced celebrities in their forties; this cannot be explained by ability, More is determined by his origin.
"Who would have thought that a rock fortress that had been built for more than two hundred years would be lost forever?" Montgomery, who was urged by Prince William and the Duke of Columbine to train Mountbatten, encouraged him when he blamed himself. Road:
"The fall of the fortress has not only caused the empire to destroy nearly a million soldiers in vain, but also destroyed everything that His Royal Highness has worked hard in the eastern empire; if we want to preserve the dignity of His Highness, we must strive to survive, using the sword in our hands. Your Highness is thorny!"
"Yiwu's sword, swear to defend Your Highness!" The uniform slogan instantly wiped out the decadence of the hearts of the seven people.
Of course, this slogan is only known to their seven core members. The elite warriors and newly-built troops of other blast thieves screamed on weekdays that the swords of gust thieves are quite characteristic of the gust thieves.
"Boss, according to our spy report deployed outside the fortress, Bai Feng's army entered Broyansong County yesterday; after that, he didn't mean to send me food, but instead passed us and went straight to Broyansong City."
Slim, who is also the commander of the Fourth Blast Corps and an intelligence officer, informed everyone present at the intelligence he had learned about Bai Feng’s army this morning; Bai Feng’s move caused Montgomery and others to wrinkle brow.
"It wouldn't be the lucky boy of Bai Feng, would you like to violate the agreement between his family Prince Prince and our Highness?" Caswall, who was very uncomfortable with Bai Feng, was very dissatisfied when he heard the information. Scolded.
"Caswell, I have warned you how many times, don't underestimate this white peak; he can climb to the position of commander of the army in just a few months, it is not an ordinary character, look down on such a strong man, sooner or later will Bring you disaster!"
"No matter what you say, I will look down on him anyway!" Cassower, with a stubborn mind, said indignantly: "The imperial army allowed a half-old child under twenty to command the 250,000 army, No wonder the Sunset Fortress will fall!"
"You..." Montgomery, anxious, just started to reprimand Casswall, Aukin Lake came out to round the road and said: "Boss, General Caswall is of this character, let's forget it; our top priority is still to find a way Solve the current food crisis."
"Do we have a solution to this food crisis?" After venting his complaint, Paresi said helplessly: "In addition to waiting for the arrival of Baifeng's food, we have no other feasible way to solve the current crisis."
As soon as these words came out, in the noisy meeting room just now, it became silent again; after a long time, under the premise that the other six people did not say a word, Montgomery, as the leader, had to stand up again and conclude :
"Today is the sixth. We will wait for Baifeng for three days, at the latest on the ninth. If Baifeng has not sent food, we will send someone to find Baifeng; now, let’s save as much food as possible, starting tomorrow, The rations of the soldiers in the army are halved."
"Boss, this is absolutely impossible!" Mountbatten, who had not raised any objections to Montgomery for several years, retorted for the first time: "If the rations of the soldiers are halved, once an enemy strikes, How can our army have the energy to face the battle?"
"Mount Patton, I also agree with the leader's decision." This time without the need for Montgomery to explain it himself, Cunningham, who had surpassed others, asked in reply: "Within less than ten days, we will completely cut the grain; this At that time, who else can we stop?"
"This..." The silent Mumbatton lowered his head heavily and said nothing more.
After this internal meeting, five people, including Paresi, Cunningham, Mountbatten, Caswall, and Slim, were asked by Montgomery to appease their soldiers; the rations of the generals were reduced by half, but not A trivial matter can easily cause mutiny in the army.
Aukin Lake’s mission is to continue to appease the refugees with less than a quarter of the ration; the gang of thieves who do not have much grain storage has never let the refugees who have trusted them eat enough, but the previous ration is half full. One in a quarter is now a quarter of alive.
After giving orders to his nominal six subordinates, Montgomery began to prepare to take the initiative to contact Bai Feng; he could become the leader of the wind thieves, not only by his loyalty to Prince William, but also by himself. ability.
Although Prince William condescended to a series of agreements with Prince Prosper, Montgomery, who would be unacceptable in foreign military orders, still understood; therefore, he did not put all his hopes in Prince Prosper's order to Bai Feng on.
