"Lord Rook...... At the current consumption, the food in the team will only last for four days at most......"

In the team of Kate City's long journey, David, who had been promoted to logistics quartermaster, reported with a serious face.

In the tent, the faces of the other generals became solemn after hearing the news, the military march, the grain and grass represent the last confidence, once this thing is gone, the hearts of the people who have been hard to gather are likely to disperse.

After all, the situation is so desperate that it's hard to breathe, and if there is no more food, it's really hard to imagine what those numb soldiers will do.

The point is that they don't even know where to find supplies.....

The vegetation visible to the naked eye along the way was infected, and it was obvious that the situation was exactly the same as that of Kate City, not to mention that it was extremely difficult to replenish food and water.

Now the team can barely maintain order, all rely on the shelter in the mouth of the beast, a group of people like Wangmei quenching their thirst, desperately persevering, although the other party can't even say where the specific location of the shelter is, but the human instinct to live, but let them choose to believe him as if grasping the last straw.

But this kind of persistence is not without a bottom line, every day of hardship is consuming everyone's patience, the huge camel is now just a straw away from crushing, and the news that the grain has bottomed out is very likely to be the last straw.

The tent fell silent, and the decision-makers in the tent, including Rook and Bundy, were silent at this time, apparently even they themselves could not digest the news for a while.

It didn't take long for Luke to reluctantly come back to his senses and said with a wry smile: "How many people know about this news?" ”

"The people in charge of taking care of the food are your henchmen, and they are very strict, so they shouldn't leak it...."David hurriedly said.

Rook sighed and nodded, this old knight of Bundy is indeed very delicate, it seems that he had expected this situation in the early days, and asked himself for a personal guard to help watch over and distribute the food, and now it seems that it is indeed a wise move.

But this is only a slight delay, because things will never disappear because they are well concealed, and paper will not be able to contain the fire after all.

"Let's cut the quota......" Rook sighed, this is the only way to go, one more day is a day.

David was stunned, and thought to himself that most people's quotas are very small now, after all, everyone is not resting every day, and the daily trip has to exceed sixteen hours.

Of course, he couldn't argue with it, because he couldn't think of any good way to do it other than cut the quota.

Now that the quota reduction has been decided, it is necessary to discuss which part of the quota to cut.

"Grom's can't cut .....," Bundy said first.

As soon as these words came out, none of the people in the entire tent refuted, although the orc's food was amazingly large, and the food of one person was worth the ration of thousands of people, but still no one refuted.

Not to mention that the hope now is on the orc, and no one is qualified to reduce his quota for his contribution along the way.

Since the route is to the south coast, along the way through several large cities have encountered a lot of mutant creatures attack, every time you encounter that kind of very terrible monster, it is basically this orc who stands up to kill him, and now he is the basic security guarantee of the team, and one person feels more effective than their army.

Even many civilians feel that they are unnecessary, because they are not able to intervene in many battles.

The quota for orcs can't be cut, and neither can the officers'.

His generals have long been cut to the point that they can't be cut anymore, and the consumption on weekdays is about the same as that of ordinary officers, and it doesn't seem appropriate to cut them to a civilian level.

Soldiers can't cut either, and now the soldiers are under great mental pressure, and they have to face the accusations of injustice among civilians, and they have already endured to the limit, and if they cut the military rations again, they may lead to mutiny.

If you calculate it, you can only cut the civilians......

Luke thought for a moment, and finally said: "If the quota for women and children remains the same, and only weakens the quota for ordinary civilian men, how many more days can it last?" ”

These words made David, who was born in a commoner, feel a little complicated, but he also knew that this was a helpless move.

From a moral point of view, giving priority to women and children can make some sense to a certain extent, especially those heads of the family, as the pillars of the family, to endure some hardships and let the mother-in-law and children eat more, which must be acceptable.

Thinking of this, David sighed, and finally replied honestly: "If the rations of all civilian men are cut in general, it can save about three days of rations." ”

"Is it only three days?" Rook frowned when he heard this, a little dissatisfied with the number.

"Three days is barely enough...... David said with a wry smile.

"And what if you cut it to a third?"

David was stunned, feeling that this was too ruthless, at least there had to be a process..... Cut it directly by one-third, and at the current intensity of the trip, many people may not last more than two days and have to fall.

"That should barely last five days.....

"Let's just decide!" Rook didn't wait for David to react, and said directly.

"This ......" David suddenly looked around, wanting to ask for help from others, but was stunned to find that the entire tent, including his old boss, Duke Bondi, had also acquiesced in this decision.

Suddenly puzzled, before he could speak, Bundy suddenly spoke: "Sometimes you have to give up when you should give up, fewer men is a good thing for many soldiers who are single and have lost their families." ”

"Huh?" This inexplicable remark made David stunned for a while, but he was also a smart person, and after being stunned for a few seconds, he pondered it.

Adults, you want to give up civilian men completely!

Pushing up after reaching this conclusion, everything can be explained.

Most of the soldiers in the team have either not started a family, or their families have been killed in the chaos, and the 100,000 soldiers are all singles.

You know, judging from the current intelligence, they are likely to be the last population on the continent, so it seems that those women in Kate City may also be the last women on the continent.

Give up those civilian men, the women in their families can be vacated, women will need to find a strong man as the breadwinner of the family in order to survive, and soldiers also need a family to support in order to have the goal of struggle.

Kill two birds with one stone!

As soon as he thought of this, David's heart suddenly cooled, although he knew that this decision was for the whole team to have more hope of survival, but this ..... That's too much, isn't it?

"No!"

Just when David didn't know how to reply, a mellow voice came from the mouth of the tent, and then a huge burly figure bent down into the tent.

David's spirits lifted, and the person who came was Brother Dog.

"Mr. Grom......" Seeing that the orc broke in to object, Rook frowned at first, but still replied in a gentle tone: "This is also a helpless move, after all, we need more time to find the shelter you said, and it is a forced choice to give up some people for this....."

"Tomorrow...."Brother Dog directly interrupted the other party's words.

"Huh?" Luke was stunned.

"Tomorrow, we'll be at our destination!" Brother Dog said quietly.

Everyone: "!! ”
