Chapter 1561: Preventive Measures
Hearing Li Yue say this, the face of the Demon-Slayer Lord William Jors instantly became much more solemn, and he spoke: "We have not made much preparation for winter." "What!?" Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, was instantly startled. She looked at Li Yue and asked: "Demon-Slayer Lord, do you mean..."
"It is like this. This battle came far too suddenly, and at that time it was still summer, so basically I did not make sufficiently thorough preparations for supplies and such, so..." Demon-Slayer Lord William Jors paused here.
Looking at the two, Demon-Slayer Lord William Jors slowly said: "As a result, I did not expect this battle to last so long. Moreover, we simply cannot get out, so the city's supply reserves are no longer very abundant. If this continues, I fear that before long, the city's supplies will be completely exhausted."
Hearing the words of the Demon-Slayer Lord, Todd Nelson nodded and said: "Indeed, this time we were indeed negligent. We truly did not expect that this time the Demons would think of using this method to deal with us!"
"However, we must come up with a solution. Otherwise, food shortages, along with warmth and so on, will put us in a dilemma." Li Yue spoke.
Hearing Li Yue's words, Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, nodded, then spoke: "I know. We indeed need to come up with a response method now; otherwise, it will be troublesome when the time comes."
"Now, I actually have an idea, though I do not know if it is appropriate to speak!" Demon-Slayer Lord William Jors spoke at this moment.
Hearing the words of Demon-Slayer Lord William Jors, Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, spoke: "What have you thought of? Just say it quickly!"
"As for warmth, did we not dig tunnels? I found that the temperature inside the tunnels is much higher than outside! As long as arrangements are made properly, the heating problem is absolutely no problem!" Demon-Slayer Lord William Jors spoke.
After hearing the words of Demon-Slayer Lord William Jors, both Li Yue and Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, were slightly stunned. The two exchanged a glance, then spoke in unison: "Yes, this is indeed a good idea! How did we not think of it!?"
After speaking, Li Yue furrowed his brows again: "Although that is true, there are still many problems existing."
Hearing Li Yue's words, Demon-Slayer Lord Jors could not help but speak: "Lord Chenxi, what are your Gu Ji? Speak them out, and we will all think of a solution together!?"
Hearing these words, Li Yue thought for a moment and spoke: "First, although the warmth problem is solved, it is impossible for everyone to enter; after all, someone must maintain corresponding order and training on the ground. Second, the food issue has not been solved yet. Although people at our realm can go months without eating or drinking without any problem, what about those ordinary soldiers?"
"I think we must solve these problems first! Otherwise, what awaits us will be endless hunger, and by that time, when the Demons launch an attack, we will not have time to react. The longer time drags on, the greater the impact on us will be!"
As Li Yue spoke, he could not help but sigh.
Hearing Li Yue's words, Demon-Slayer Lord William Jors also nodded and spoke: "I understand your concerns. You are right; these are indeed problems. However, as for eating, I actually have a method that is not really a method."
"Oh, what method? Hurry and tell us!" Hearing the words of Demon-Slayer Lord Jors, Todd Nelson was also very expectant.
Demon-Slayer Lord William Jors spoke: "It is like this. Behind the Dark City lies a barren mountain. Although it is Full of dangers, there are also many beasts accordingly. If we can catch them, we can barely survive this winter."
Hearing the words of Demon-Slayer Lord Jors, Li Yue nodded, then spoke: "This is indeed a highly feasible method. As long as we can catch some prey and make it into dried meat, it should be enough to last a few days."
Hearing Li Yue's words, Todd Nelson could not help but ask: "Then the warmth problem is still not solved!"
Hearing Todd Nelson's words, everyone fell slightly silent.
What Todd Nelson said is right; the warmth problem is indeed a very big problem.
"If only there were other ways to keep warm besides clothes."
Demon-Slayer Lord Jors spoke at this moment.
Hearing the words of Demon-Slayer Lord Jors, Li Yue also fell into deep thought, wondering what methods he still had in hand that could solve this problem in the fastest time.
"Hmm, I have a method!"
Li Yue suddenly spoke at this moment.
"What method? Hurry and say it so we can listen!" Demon-Slayer Lord William Jors spoke.
Li Yue thought for a moment and said: "We all know how to use magic, so why not have people use magic to isolate this cold air!? This way, we can not only avoid freezing the soldiers to death, but even make the soldiers' defense stronger. With this, we would not need to worry about the Demons' attacks."
Hearing Li Yue's words, Todd Nelson nodded and spoke: "Hmm, this could work! However, if we use magic, isn't the consumption too great?"
After hearing these words, Li Yue gently shook his head and smiled: "It's fine. For this matter, we can have the people below take turns."
After hearing Li Yue say this, the two nodded. Princess Feifeng said: "Hmm, this is indeed a solution. Then let us proceed according to what was said."
At this moment, Li Yue also began to nod gently: "Hmm, then I will trouble you. This matter must be arranged as soon as possible; there must be absolutely no mistakes."
"Rest assured. Lord Chenxi, do you not trust me when I do things?" Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, said with a smile.
Hearing the words of Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, Li Yue also smiled.
Princess Feifeng, who was speaking, stood up from her position, then spoke: "Then it is settled. Lord Chenxi, I will go arrange it now."
Hearing the words of Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, Li Yue nodded and said: "Go slowly; no need to see you off."
Hearing Li Yue's words, Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, nodded, turned around, and walked toward the door of the Zhangpengde Sect.
