Chapter 141: Assembly of the Logistics Support Team
In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun was like a piece of golden silk, gently draped in front of the huge warehouse. However, this seemingly peaceful golden light could not conceal the chaotic scene in front of the warehouse.
The warehouse door stood open, revealing a mountain of supplies: food bags, weapon crates, medicine packs, tent fabric, and so on, piled chaotically together like a chaotic carnival. Some food bags, pressed to the bottom, bore immense pressure and seemed poised to burst at any moment, spilling their precious contents. Weapon crates had been opened, swords and guns scattered about, their original neatness and majesty lost. Medicine packs were haphazardly tossed aside, precious potion bottles teetering precariously from the collision.
Personnel responsible for managing supplies moved through the chaos, their faces filled with anxiety and confusion. The wind rustled their ledgers, their records already a mess, mirroring the chaotic scene before them. They shouted, trying to restore order, but their voices were drowned out by the surrounding clamor.
The condition of transportation was even more dismal. Several dilapidated horse-drawn carriages sat beside the warehouse, their wheels worn to the point of being unrecognizable, their axles creaking in agony, as if they were straining under the weight. The wood of the carriage frames was rotten and threatened to break at any moment. The few oxen that remained were listless, their old oxen panting heavily, their eyes revealing fatigue and helplessness. These vehicles were not only severely in short supply, but also aging and dilapidated, completely unable to meet the demand for material transportation.
The organization was as disorganized as loose sand. Some workers blindly carried supplies, unsure of where to go; others stood by, bewildered, watching the chaotic scene. Still others argued over unclear divisions of labor, the sounds rising and falling. Shouts, arguments, and complaints intertwined into a chaotic cacophony, the inefficiency distressing.
In this chaotic, seemingly hopeless moment, Concubine Su, flanked by a group of guards, hurried to the warehouse. She was dressed in gorgeous palace attire, but she lacked her usual gentle demeanor. Her face was as gloomy as an approaching storm, and her eyes revealed a firmness and majesty.
"Stop!" Concubine Su shouted loudly. Her voice was clear and powerful, instantly penetrating the noisy noise, like a thunder exploding in everyone's ears.
The whole place fell silent instantly, and everyone's attention was focused on Concubine Su. Her sharp eyes swept across everyone, making people shudder.
"Look at what you have done! This is to ensure supplies for the front line, not to mess around!" Concubine Su's voice was filled with anger and disappointment.
She took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and then began to tidy up in an orderly manner.
Concubine Su first clarified everyone's responsibilities. She divided the staff into several small groups, with some responsible for material allocation, some for transportation arrangements, and some for tool maintenance. She personally selected several experienced and capable people to serve as team leaders and assigned them to the work of their respective groups.
"You are responsible for counting all the supplies, sorting them, and prioritizing them according to the needs of the front line." Concubine Su pointed to an official who looked more shrewd.
"And you, take your men and check all the means of transportation. Repair those that can be repaired immediately, and find ways to replace those that cannot be repaired." She gave another order to an official in charge of transportation.
Concubine Su personally took charge of the reorganization and classification of supplies. She rolled up her sleeves and walked into the chaotic pile of supplies without caring about her image, directing the workers to place food, weapons, medicine, etc. in different areas, and requiring them to be arranged in order according to urgency and importance.
"These foods are the life support for the soldiers on the front line and must be placed in the most easily accessible place!" Concubine Su said loudly.
"These weapons must be stored in categories to facilitate quick distribution." She gave instructions while constantly reminding them.
Concubine Su ordered the urgent repair and deployment of new vehicles. She dispatched her men to nearby towns and villages to collect all available horse-drawn carriages, ox-drawn carts, and even human-drawn carts. She also gathered a group of strong horses and skilled drivers from other places.
"The soldiers on the front line are fighting bloody battles. We can't let them lose their lives due to lack of supplies!" Concubine Su's words inspired everyone.
Under the careful arrangement and strict supervision of Concubine Su, the chaotic situation was gradually brought under control. The originally disorganized supplies began to be arranged in order, and the transportation vehicles were also repaired and replenished one after another.
The confusion and helplessness in people's eyes were gone, and the light of hope was rekindled. Everyone began to work in an orderly manner, collaborating with each other, and efficiency was gradually improving.
The team responsible for material allocation carefully counted the quantity and status of each type of material. Their pens moved quickly on the account book, recording every important information.
The members of the transport team were busy repairing and preparing the transport tools. Their sweat dripped onto the ground, but they had no time to wipe it off.
The craftsmen of the maintenance team took their tools and carefully restored the damaged vehicles, bringing them back to life.
Concubine Su toured the site, offering guidance and improvement measures from time to time. Her presence reassured everyone, filling them with confidence and strength.
After long and arduous efforts, an efficient material management and transportation system was finally quickly established.
Food was neatly stacked together, weapons were arranged in order according to type and model, and medicines were also stored in categories and marked with clear instructions for use.
The means of transportation were brand new, with horse-drawn carriages and ox-drawn carts lined up neatly, the horses in high spirits, and the drivers ready to set off.
A strong logistics support team was successfully assembled. With high morale and determined eyes, they are ready to provide solid support for the battle on the front line.
