In the Second Army's barracks, most soldiers were completing their retirement procedures, while others assisted with the process.
When Yuan Rihui and his team arrived, only one soldier was guarding the entrance. The soldier stopped them and asked, "Comrade, what is your business here?"
"I'm here to meet Captain Li Tianyu," Yuan Rihui replied.
The soldier, aware of Li Tianyu's retirement, pointed toward the parking lot and explained, "Follow this path. Captain Li is there."
Yuan Rihui thanked him and hurried to the parking lot, where the soldiers were already gathered.
Seeing him approach from a distance, Li Tianyu waved at him and said, "Thank you for coming, Brother Yuan."
Yuan Rihui nodded and asked, "Where do you want us to place the supplies?"
"Please wait a moment," Li Tianyu said.
He turned around and called five soldiers over. He explained, "These are our space ability users. You can hand the supplies to them."
"Alright," Yuan Rihui replied.
As the seven ability users handed over the vast quantity of supplies, Yuan Rihui gave Li Tianyu a detailed list.
"Miss Yao has prepared enough supplies to support over 20,000 people for three months, as well as fuel for a round trip to Brother Long's location."
Li Tianyu skimmed the list, noting Yao Ran's thoughtful additions, such as winter clothing, warming pads, and pre-cooked meals.
Satisfied with the amount she gave him, he saluted Yuan Rihui and said, "Take care, Brother Yuan. Let's meet again in the future."
Yuan Rihui returned the salute. "Be careful on your journey."
After bidding farewell, Li Tianyu turned to his soldiers. "Board the trucks. We are leaving now."
"Yes, Captain!"
As the military trucks departed in an orderly manner, Yuan Rihui watched them go, a sense of unease creeping in.
"I hope the situation doesn't worsen further," he murmured. "If it does, I will need to devise another plan."
One of the combat-ability users interrupted his thoughts and asked, "Brother Yuan, should we head back now?"
Hearing this, Yuan Rihui nodded. "Yes, let's go. We still have other orders to deliver."
By now, news of the disbandment of the First and Second Armies had spread across the base. With so many soldiers retiring simultaneously, tensions continued to rise, and an ominous atmosphere settled over the entire base.
An hour after Li Tianyi left the Juncheng Military Base, Li Zhen visited Long Yu.
