The man who felt that it was useless to talk to his woman kept his mouth shut. Saying anything else would involve leaking secrets: he couldn't lose his job. If he lost his job, he would have to go to the damn front line to serve.
Telling something to your woman is like going on the radio and announcing to half the city that a woman's level of confidentiality is basically a negative number: the difference is just how negative it is.
They are all born with big mouths and are willing to talk about everything they know with their besties, their friends, the aunties on the street, and even their neighbors on the bus.
This country is collapsing, and he knows this very clearly. He just saw a piece of data yesterday, which shows that the food sent to the front line this month has decreased by at least two-thirds compared to the same period last month!
That's right! With the collapse of transportation capacity, the empire is no longer able to provide sufficient material supplies to the front line. Only God knows what will become of a million-strong army without material supplies.
They may become a more terrifying existence than the enemy, and can quickly corrode everything around them like locusts crossing the border.
If it were just food, there might be some way to do it. Add to that the shortage of ammunition and other supplies, and how many percent of the combat effectiveness of these troops is left. Perhaps only His Majesty the Emperor knows.
Secrets are not secrets to many people. No matter how confidential the matter is, there must be someone to handle it. The public officials who handle it are the ones who know the truth. They have long known that what is played on the radio is just stupid people.
lie.
There was an explosion in the distance again. It was the Tang Army bombers that once again visited the industrial area of Ironforge. Although it had not affected the wealthy areas and office areas, the bombing of the industrial area was enough to change Ironforge's industrial area.
Some people are used to it.
The ground was shaking, the glass was buzzing, the man walked to the window and saw the smoke column rising in the distance. The city was gradually losing power, and soon there would be a shortage of food supply, and people's hearts began to become unstable and collapse.
Maybe it only takes one morning.
"I'm going to work." He sighed and walked to the door, picked up his briefcase, took his clothes off the hangers and hung them on his arms.
The wife came over to see her off and told her to pay attention to safety. The man who walked to the street saw the soldiers catching beggars and the military vehicles hurriedly heading to the palace.
What made him a little annoyed was that the two familiar shoe shiners were nowhere to be seen. He looked down at the somewhat unclean leather shoes on his feet, and his mood became worse.
Maybe I will never meet a shoemaker again. The dwarf with a beautiful beard thought as he watched two soldiers escorting a beggar past him.
…
In Rewind Port, Shirin wrapped her clothes tightly and walked on the slightly deserted street. Not far away was a collapsed building, which was destroyed by a cannonball two days ago.
Since yesterday, the siege artillery has stopped. It seems that the humans have not been driven away, but the elven troops outside the city have retreated.
Shireen went out to look for something to eat today. She and her neighbor's family had been hungry all night. If they didn't come out, they would continue to starve today.
The good news is that the war should have stopped. Although some Tang soldiers wearing weird military uniforms can still be seen occasionally on the streets, the danger seems to have gone away.
Speaking of what those Tang soldiers wore, it was really funny: their clothes were yellow and green, as if they had not been dyed properly. The helmets those people wore looked very thick, and there were no paintings on them such as troop numbers, and there were no elves.
The iron helmet used looks good.
In Shilin's view, the Tang army soldiers with a lot of broken objects hanging on their bodies were far less powerful than the elf soldiers with moral weapons, and their aura seemed to be three points weaker standing there.
It's just that these seemingly weak human soldiers defeated the elven troops stationed here, occupied the city, and then repelled the main force of the 7th Army of the Yangmu Empire outside the city.
"Do you need help? Madam." On the street, a human soldier with his hand on his rifle saw the thin Shirin and asked from a distance.
Shirin didn't dare to talk or run directly, so she could only stand there and wait for the other party to slowly walk over.
"What's the matter?" The soldier stood next to Shirin. At such a close distance, Shirin could clearly see the other person's young and immature face. It looked like the soldier was only 20 years old, and there was a dimple on his face when he smiled.
"I, I came out to look for something to eat... A few people and I haven't eaten for several days." Shirin told a little lie in order to gain sympathy. In fact, she just didn't have dinner yesterday and is just a little hungry now.
"The food ration truck won't be here for a while. It's right at this street corner. I'm in charge of security here... You can wait here, but you don't need to worry. There's news that a ship will bring food here today."
The soldiers are ordered to maintain law and order here, so of course they know more specifically.
As he spoke, he pointed to the other end of the street: "We'll line up there in a moment. Everyone can get it, but they can only get it once..."
In fact, he didn't know how to calculate that each person could only receive it once, because there was no good way to restrain these civilians: it was not that there had never been cases of people claiming more than one person in the past, and most of the time it was nothing.
Many troops in the Tang Empire have a glorious tradition of throwing things away, and the people above usually don't criticize such things too harshly.
However, as soldiers who maintain order, they should scare these civilians when they should, so that they can more or less obey the rules so that no extreme incidents will occur.
Hearing what the soldier said, Shireen was stunned. She couldn't believe that these humans from afar would deliberately ship food for them.
You know, since the Tang Empire fleet blocked the Rewind Port, no ship transporting supplies has been seen docking here for a long time.
"Is there a ship that transports food?" Shirin confirmed with some confusion.
"I heard it is." The young soldier nodded: "Don't worry, the material supply should be restored soon... The life here will be better. After all... it originally belonged to us."
"Rewind Port once had its glory for a period of time. At that time, there was endless work here, and everyone could get a lot of wages. At that time... I hope this thing is still there." For a moment, Shirin thought of herself.
When I first came here, I heard what an old man said.
