Chapter 257

"Old Qin, don't be angry, it's useless to be angry now, everyone think about how to solve this problem first." The old general waved at the scarred man, telling him to stay calm.

"Xuan Xiao, you have a smart mind. How long can we eat the food that can be counted in the barracks?" The old general crossed his hands and propped them on his forehead, looking a bit vicissitudes under the candlelight.

"Probably enough to feed the whole staff for ten days!"

"Ten days, it takes fifteen days to come to the capital, not enough time!"

"Let's go to the nearest city to raise food and grass," someone suggested.

"The recent city has been fighting continuously for years, and for several years it has been relying on the food distributed by the kingdom to barely survive. There will be no surplus food for us," said a man with long beard who looks like a military adviser.

"Indeed, we can't make things worse for the common people"

"Think again, think again"

"General, I will lead a group of people to attack the place and steal their food and grass." A young man was wearing armor with a cold light shining on his armor. It seemed that this man was very aggressive.

"No, there is no food and grass, and it is too risky to act rashly."

"This doesn't work, and that doesn't work. I went back with troops and ransacked the houses of those bastards."

"You don't want to live anymore?" The old general patted the guy on the head to calm him down.

"Let's think of something else!"

Lin Wushuang was lying on the back of the tent, his legs were a little numb.

After waiting for a long time and arguing endlessly, Xuan Xiao didn't speak, and Lin Wushuang fell asleep after hearing it.

It wasn't until the clothes on the back of her neck were picked up vigorously that she woke up in a jerk, and looked up at Xuan Xiao's eagle-like eyes, and her heart skipped a beat.

"What are you doing here?" Xuan Xiao's tone was definitely not very friendly.

"Do you believe me when I pass by?" Lin Wushuang laughed dryly.

"Speak directly if you have something to say!"

"Aren't you struggling with food? Maybe I can help"

"Do you have a solution?"

"Hmm..." Lin Wushuang thought he should tell them this, otherwise, how many people would die, and Xuan Xiao didn't have to meet Yu Linglong, so maybe it would be a good thing.

Xuan Xiao took Lin Wushuang back to his tent, and he would not take the risk of introducing her to the general without knowing whether what she said was true.

"Tell me." Xuan Xiao sat down and waited for Lin Wushuang to tell the story.

"We are now close to the northern region, which belongs to the sparsely populated area, but haven't you noticed that there are many animals in the surrounding dense forests that are fat and strong?"

"You mean to rely on hunting to supplement the army's rations?" Xuan Xiao didn't think that this would solve the urgent need, it would only treat the symptoms but not the root cause.

"No, what I mean is, what do animals eat for the winter? Many animals have the habit of storing food for the winter. We can use the animals' winter food. Of course, we must leave enough food for the animals to survive the winter." Lin After Wu Shuang explained what she meant, Xuan Xiao kept staring at her.

"Tomorrow, I will send a team to follow you to the forest. If you can do it, you will be a great contributor to us." Xuan Xiao didn't exaggerate at all, with sincerity in his eyes.

"Ah, good." Lin Wushuang didn't expect Xuan Xiao to believe what she said, because mortals generally never think about it from this aspect.

Early the next morning, Lin Wushuangjiu took a group of people with tools to the forest to find food for the winter.

Lin Wushuang thought that in general, little squirrels in the forest would store food for the winter in empty tree trunks, and as long as they found a tree trunk, they would just dig a hole.
