The grain had arrived, and both Daohua and Xiao Yeyang breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Yeyang sent a letter to the Border Army Camp that very day, asking Cao Dan to come and collect the grain the next day.
Upon receiving the letter, Cao Dan was stunned for a long while, especially when he saw Xiao Yeyang's words in the letter that the soldiers on the frontier must not compromise their health, and it was imperative to ensure that every soldier had enough to eat. Future provisions would be fully delivered. Although these were all expected, he could not help but be somewhat moved.
The military provisions were, in fact, well known to everyone. If five or six tenths were distributed, the higher-ups were considered exceptionally good officials, a full portion... He had never received that in all his years of military service.
With the food secured, both the Border Army and the refugees outside the city were at ease.
