"The First Battalion of the Detachment of Women and the Iron Tiger Battalion are responsible for the security. The others are disbanded and unload the supplies on the ship!"
In fact, there were not many supplies that needed to be unloaded on the ship. In order to save space, Wei Shengjun and the female workers rarely moved on the ship for so many days. Jin Feng asked them to unload the supplies so that they could move their legs and feet before rushing on.
With the number of Weishengjun and female workers, they can almost finish unloading before dinner starts.
However, Jin Feng did not notice that the cooks were in trouble when faced with a pack of wild wolves.
Sichuan and Sichuan are mountainous, and most people will go into the mountains to catch wild animals during the off-season to improve their lives. However, without enough tools, most people cannot catch prey all year round.
Even if something is caught, it is only small animals such as hares and pheasants, and few people catch wild beasts like wild wolves that live in groups.
The cooks looked at the wild wolf on the ground and didn't know what to do.
Fortunately, there were thousands of Weisheng soldiers and female workers present, many of whom were soldiers from Orion families.
Finding that the cooks didn't know how to deal with wild wolves, these people took the initiative to come over and help.
They were much faster than the cooks. They used black knives to cut along the wild wolf's wounds, peeling off the wolf's skin and removing its internal organs.
At this time, the upper reaches of the Luanhe River were still endless wasteland, without any pollution at all, and the river water was crystal clear. The soldiers watching the excitement carried the cleaned wild wolves into the Luanhe River to wash them, then brought them back and chopped them into pieces for cooking.
With the help of these people, the cooks felt much more relaxed and quickly set up pots to boil water.
Half an hour later, dinner was served in the temporary camp.
Jin Feng divided the female workers and Weishengjun into two groups. One group had a meal, while the other group continued to unload supplies from the ship.
Jin Feng was not idle either and asked Tie Hammer to call the captain of Zhenyuan No. 2 over.
"These are the three sets of combat plans I have prepared for you. Go back and take a look at what you need to prepare. When the time is right, I will let people set off smoke and fireworks. You decide which one to execute based on the number and color of the fireworks.
A plan, understand?"
Before Zhenyuan 2 left, Jin Feng handed the captain three envelopes, each containing a set of combat plans.
Next, Wei Shengjun and the female workers had to go to Yuguan City by land without taking a boat. However, just in case, Jin Feng just sent the grain ship back to the Donghai dock, but left the Zhenyuan No. 2 and the speedboat behind.
They are on standby offshore, ready to respond and assist in attacks at any time.
"Yes!" The captain took the envelope and carefully put it into his arms.
Zhenyuan No. 2 was built not long ago, and the captain has not yet been officially confirmed. The current captain is only one of the candidates, so he takes Jin Feng's order very seriously. He plans to arrange for people to watch the shore 24 hours a day after returning to avoid missing the smoke.

After Zhenyuan No. 2 left, Wei Shengjun and the female workers also finished their meals and stood in formation again on the wasteland. Then the soldiers of Tiehu Camp began to distribute military rations.
In order to reinforce Yuguan City as much as possible, neither the female workers nor the Weisheng Army arranged logistics personnel, including the cooking companies, which were all temporarily formed. When the war actually broke out, the cooking companies would have to be dispersed and join various teams.
Without a logistics team, female workers and Weisheng soldiers could only carry their own rations and supplies.
The military rations assigned to each person were enough to last for four days. In other words, if they could not break through Yuguan City in four days, they would face starvation.
This desperate approach made the female workers and Weisheng Army even more urgent.
The scouts had already set off first, and after distributing supplies and rations, the large troops lined up in two teams and headed north.
The space on the ship was limited, so they didn't bring a single war horse with them. Everyone, including Jin Feng, hurried on foot, heading north step by step along the coastline.
"I don't know what's going on in Yuguan City now?"
Jin Feng looked at the endless wasteland in the north, his eyes full of worry.
Yuguan City is not an ordinary city, but the north gate of Dakang and the gateway to the Central Plains.
No matter what price he pays, Jin Feng must ensure that Yuguan City is in his own hands.
Now that the airship cannot be used, the difficulty of attacking the city has skyrocketed. Once Yuguan City is taken away by the Eastern Barbarians, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky to take it back.
Even if it is finally recaptured, it is estimated that not many of the Weisheng troops and female workers brought this time will survive.
Jin Feng didn't want to see that scene.
…
In Yuguan City, Liu Tie stood on the south wall and looked south, his eyes also full of worry.
I originally thought that after burning the enemy's grain depot, the enemy would retreat in spite of the difficulties, but who knew that the Eastern Man Chanyu became even crazier and even used the method of reducing the population to save food rations.
In the past, in order to reduce casualties, the Eastern Barbarian Chanyu tried to disperse the cannon fodder as much as possible when attacking the city, so as to reduce the casualties when being attacked by catapults.
But on the first day after the grain and grass were burned, the number of cannon fodder sent by the Eastern Barbarian Chanyu to attack the city increased at least three times.
The grassland is densely covered with human heads, one next to the other. The catapult does not need to aim at all. It can hit the outside at will and it will not miss every time.
The situation in the north is critical, and the situation in the south is not optimistic either.
Feng Shicai knew very well that after the food and grass were burned, it was impossible for so many of them to return to Jin alive. The only way to survive was to capture Yuguan City so that they could get supplies.
Therefore, the Jin-Barbarian coalition also attacked the southern city wall as frantically as the Eastern Barbarians.
Fortunately, before the Zhenyuan No. 1 sank, one-third of the ammunition in the cabin had been unloaded, and the main items unloaded were explosives, grenades, and flash bombs. The bows and arrows were not unloaded.
Relying on these ammunition, the bodyguards and female soldiers have been able to survive until now.
However, the amount of ammunition is limited. In order to reduce the use of ammunition, except for the ward for housing the wounded, not even a single house can be seen in Yuguan City.
Not only the brick houses, but also the adobes used to build thatched houses were dismantled by the bodyguards and sent to the city wall for catapults.
The escorts' dormitories have been replaced by tents.
Even the handrails made of bricks on the inside of the city wall were all ripped off.
It can be said that basically everything in the city that could be used by catapults was smashed out.
But even if the amount of ammunition used is controlled in this way, the ammunition sent by Zhenyuan No. 1 is still almost used up.
Next, the bodyguards and female soldiers must engage in close combat with the enemy.
When Zhenyuan No. 1 arrived, there were only more than 800 people left in Yuguan City who could still stand and fight, including more than 600 female soldiers.
Although escorts and sailors from the Zhenyuan No. 1 were later added, there were only more than 200 people. Adding the remaining 800 people, the number was just over a thousand.
The ammunition is almost used up. With more than a thousand people guarding the city walls on the north and south sides day and night, how easy is it?
At least Liu Tie didn't have any doubts in his heart.
But so far, the Dongman people have lost countless lives, and they have no other choice but to defend.
