Even if the craftsmen of the rear battalion worked day and night, there was only so much time, and the ordnance such as bed crossbows made was far less than the speed of consumption, and the ordnance accumulated after two days of fighting could not meet the strict requirements that Bai Qi wanted to cover the front line of the Wei army.

This also means that more lives of Qin's soldiers are needed to make up for the omissions caused by the lack of weapons. But now the Qin army was already injured in the battle with the Zhao army, and the combat strength was already in danger, so if he could fight without his life, where would Bai Qi be willing to waste his elite soldiers in vain.

If there are too many losses in this battle, the Qin army may be defeated even though it is won.

The battle of the Shangdang, which was completed with the strength of the whole country, actually dropped the chain at the last moment, and there was even a possibility that it would fall short, how could Bai Qi not be angry?

In the face of Wu Anjun's anger, the quartermaster was also helpless. Then he knelt down on one knee, clasped his hands into fists and said, "Back to Wu Anjun, since receiving the general the day before yesterday, the last general immediately sent a deputy to lead an army of five hundred, and went to the Light Wolf City with a warrant to mobilize bed crossbows, car crossbows and other ordnance."

"According to the original plan, it should have been escorted to the camp before yesterday afternoon." The quartermaster swallowed, and seeing that Wu Anjun didn't mean to interrupt, he immediately continued: "I don't want to be after noon, it still hasn't been delivered, and the last general thinks that maybe it is also because the main force in the Light Wolf City has fallen, resulting in a slow handover and transfer."

"Therefore, the last general shall send another three hundred soldiers to assist, and make him send men every hour to report the progress. But......" said the quartermaster, wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead.

"But how?" Sima Cuo on the side couldn't help but interject.

After more than two days of fierce fighting, he knew too well how passive he was without a strong crossbow ordnance.

"But." The quartermaster bowed his head and continued, "Until a few days ago, not a single person has returned to the camp to report the progress."

As he spoke, the quartermaster slammed his head to the ground.

Hearing this, Bai Qi's brows furrowed even deeper, and he exhaled two deep breaths of turbidity, and said slowly, "Why don't you send someone to investigate?"

"Yuwu Anjun, since yesterday's midnight, the last general has felt that something is wrong, so he sends cavalry to inquire about the transportation of ordnance almost every half hour. It's just that ......" The quartermaster was a little afraid to continue, and apparently, he finally realized that things might not be as simple as he thought.

"Still no return?" Bai Qi asked expressionlessly.

"Yes, yes." The quartermaster slowly replied, "The cavalry sent out more than ten waves in total, and there was no response."

"Wu Anjun." Sima Cuo also realized the seriousness of the matter, and hurriedly wanted to say something, but was stopped by Bai Qi waving his hand.

What Sima mistakenly thought, Bai Qi naturally knew it, but Bai Qi knew that there was no time, not only was the war on the front line imminent, if the real thing had developed in the direction he least wanted, then time would be even more precious, Bai Qi must grasp the most information as soon as possible, and make the most correct decision with the fastest speed.

Seeing Bai Qi waving his hand, Sima Cuo immediately stepped back.

"How long can the army hold out? How much more armor is there?" Bai Qi continued to ask.

"Yuwu Anjun, due to the reduction of the army's troops, it can still last for five days, and if you save some, you may be able to hold on for ten days." The quartermaster was obviously very clear about his job, and immediately reported the numbers one by one: "As for the ordnance, there is not much left of the heavy ordnance such as bed crossbows and arrow towers, which are only enough for a war, and there are still plenty of crossbow arrows, and there is no problem in holding on to one or two major battles. There are still thousands of things such as spears, swords, and shields."

When Bai Qi heard this, the worry in his heart became stronger and stronger. According to the Quartermaster's words, whether it is food, grass, or ordnance, I am afraid that it can only last for a maximum of ten days, if it is true......

Bai Qi didn't dare to think about it anymore, but Bai Qi also knew that he couldn't mess with himself, let alone Qin Jun.

After pacing two steps in place, Bai Qi already had a plan in his heart. did not blame the quartermaster for delaying the report, because Bai Qi knew that now was not the time, and the current Qin army must unite to have the possibility of changing the predicament.

"Pass me the order." Bai Qi returned to the main seat, his eyes cold and resolute.

"Yes!" The generals immediately replied

Road.

"One: At three o'clock, launch a general attack on the Wei army according to the original plan." Bai Qi ordered lightly.

"Yes!" Although Sima Cuo was very puzzled by Bai Qi's order, he still took the lead in leading the order. Without him, trust you.

"The outer battle is in charge of General Wang Di, and the inner offensive is in charge of General Sima Cuo." Bai nodded, obviously satisfied with Sima Cuo's cooperation.

"Yes." Sima Cuo agreed again.

"General Sima." Bai Qi picked up the token from the table and handed it to Sima Cuo, instructing, "It's not difficult to defeat the Wei army, the general must grab the Wei army's grain, understand?"

Sima was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he understood—Bai Qi was already planning for the worst outcome.

Now that the news of the light wolf city is broken, the worst result is that another country has joined the Changping War, cutting off the supply of the army. Although I don't know which country it is, the country of Chu, the country of Han or the country of Qi? But that doesn't matter! The only Zhao State that can wrestle with my Qin army has been disabled, as long as the problem of ordnance, grain and grass is solved, the Qin army is not afraid of the challenge of any country.

Ordnance, there are many skilled craftsmen in the army, and there is no shortage of wood and iron tools in the party, plus the remnants of the battlefield, supply is not a big problem.

The key is still food and grass! The three-year war of Shangdang completely destroyed the economy of Shangdang, and the population was displaced in large numbers, and the farmland was barren on a large scale, and it was impossible to obtain grain on the spot. Without food and grass, even if it is as strong as the Zhao army, it has become like mud, and the Qin soldiers of their own country will not be spared, I am afraid that before the battle is fought, they will fall first.

And if you want to solve the problem of ordnance, grain and grass, the Wei army in front of you is obviously the key. The Wei army came from afar, and there was no good grain transportation channel in the rear, so the grain and straw it carried must not be a few, as long as it could take the Wei army's grain and grass for its own use, then the Qin army would not be afraid of the blockade of other countries.

Sima Cuo, who understood Bai Qi's intentions, immediately took the token with both hands, nodded and said, "Wu Anjun rest assured, he will get the Wei army's grain and straw to make a fool's plan."

Bai Qi immediately nodded, and continued to order, "Second, the scout camp."

"Yes." A Qin general replied out of class.

"Quickly send the elite troops to the west to the Wolf City, the east to the Danshui Barrier, and the south to investigate the situation. Remember the light and the dark, and be sure to bring back the accurate information." Bai Qi handed out a token and said solemnly.

Although Bai Qi has basically guessed the possible situation from the disappearance of the people who have not arrived and urged the military supplies, but, what if?!
