"Our supply lines are under great pressure now. It can be said that in fifteen days, the supply lines will bear the limit. However, according to incomplete statistics, the pressure that needs to be endured will continue to float upwards on the limit basis by 20%, and this number must be maintained until the end of the war." As soon as we walked outside the door of the small living room on the second floor, Catherine heard Snape's old voice coming from the living room: "I did not deliberately exaggerate the difficulties, and I also know that all parties have done their best, but I still have to make it clear that everyone has made a serious mistake, and everyone who makes the decision made this mistake.

We underestimated the difficulty of transporting supplies deep in the Sigh Desert. In history, there has never been such a large-scale mobilization of troops into the desert. There is no such precedent for such high-intensity and high-frequency transport of supplies. Although everyone has tried their best to increase the difficulty of supply, it turns out that this improvement is still insufficient. If it continues to develop like this, twenty days later, there will be a shortage of food for the front-line troops. Twenty-three days later, at least thirty percent of the front-line troops will fall into a dilemma of insufficient drinking water. In the environment of Sigh Desert, I don’t need to explain what this means."

"Yes, it doesn't need to be explained." It can be heard that this is General Greenfar, the commander of the Knights' Kingdom Faral, the commander of the war. The old general's powerful voice sounds particularly penetrating: "This level of insufficient drinking water will not be fatal, but all troops with insufficient drinking water will reduce the combat effectiveness by at least 50%. If the impact on the morale of other troops and the distribution ratio between the troops of various races is included, it is very likely that the combat effectiveness of all front-line troops will be reduced by about 20%, which is a very dangerous situation."

"Maybe it won't be that serious." This is Warrenson, the Speaker of the Mage Kingdom who came from afar because of Vivian's masterpiece a few days ago, said: "Water such as cooling and maintenance equipment can be temporarily made by the mage team. Judging from the size of the previous line mage team, on the basis of maintaining combat effectiveness, as long as sufficient water-attribute element crystals are provided, the missing non-drinking water can still be barely done."

"The problem is that how many water-attribute elemental crystals are enough? Sighing that the desert itself is very unfavorable to the use of water-attribute magic. If you want to create a large amount of non-drinking water there, the water-attribute elemental crystals that need to be consumed will be a terrifying number. With such a large-scale consumption, concentrating the inventory of all forces at this stage may not be able to meet the supply. What should I do if the rest?" Antu said calmly and cautiously: "As a mage, Warrenson, you should also know that we cannot not store some elemental crystals for spare."

"First transport the crystal inventory to the front line, and start requisitioning water-attribute crystals on a large scale in the rear." Warrenson replied without hesitation for a second: "If the private crystal reserves are counted, twice the number can be supplied."

"Maybe your country of wizards can use the method of expropriation, but most forces cannot do this, they can only acquire it." A strange voice said: "For example, our Neville Federation cannot requisition unconditionally now. That is the last method to be used. Once the requisition of private materials is started, it is equivalent to telling the people that the war has reached the brink of collapse at any time. Why should we waste time stabilizing the people today?"

"No matter what the reason is, if there is a problem with logistics work, it is the dereliction of duty of me, the logistics manager." The sound of the table and chair sounded. It was obvious that Marquis Snape stood up and said seriously: "Because my lack of ability has affected the preparations for the war, I will resign from the position of the person in charge to apologize to all parties. I hope the coalition command center will select the candidate to take over my job as soon as possible."

"Don't think so. If you need to resign, then all senior leaders of all forces, including our sons of the Forest, will need to resign." A voice with a clear elf accent in the common language said: "Everyone sees the achievements you have made these days. Apart from you, I'm afraid no one can establish such a complete supply line in such a short time. So, there is no other person in charge of logistics work except you."

"Agree, even if all the members of our Goblin Chamber of Commerce work together, it may not be better than Snape. You can continue to stick with it." The sharp voice reminded Catherine of Christo back then. The voice of the goblins was always so distinctive: "And the situation is not that serious now. The people from our Goblin Chamber of Commerce are coming forward and negotiating with the quicksand Chamber of Commerce of the Sandman, hoping that they can rent the thirty reserved sandworms for us to use. If the negotiation is successful, although the problem of insufficient transportation power cannot be completely solved, it can at least relieve the pressure to a certain extent."

"Indeed, it's not the time to despair yet." Odin was always so calm when the problem did not involve his daughter: "Don't forget that according to His Majesty Flar, this war may not really be fought. Maybe the troops can turn to disband after halfway."

The small living room was silent. After a moment, Antuyin said slowly: "This is of course the best result, but we must always make the worst plan so that we will not fall into chaos because of emergencies."

"I think so too." Snape said with some dissatisfaction: "No matter what, he has done enough and has no obligation to continue to make more sacrifices for the world. Although he has taken the initiative to make demands and do something more, we should not put all the pressure on him alone, which is not fair to him. Moreover, although with the support of Her Majesty the Queen, I always doubt that he can do it? After all, he wants to go alone..."

"Ahem." Panis suddenly coughed outside the door, interrupting Snape's words while declaring her existence. After Snape was silent, Panis glanced at Catherine very quickly and found that she did not seem to notice some information exposed in Snape's last words. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, kicked open the door of the small living room, and pulled Catherine into the ongoing meeting with great strides.

"I said, isn't the inside of the thing on your neck really empty?" As soon as Pannis entered the room, he began to mock him unscrupulously: "No matter how you say you are one of the top figures in all parties, don't you know to consider the problem from another perspective?"
