As time passed, the soldiers were sweating profusely.
As time passed, more and more soldiers had strange expressions on their faces.
It was really like seeing a ghost in broad daylight.
At this moment, almost all the garrison soldiers in the southern city camp had been called over. Even if it was just one person, they could still move tens of thousands of boxes in two hours.
Of course, it was impossible for so many people to rush in at once. Instead, they took turns. In addition, they had to send someone to move the boxes on the street away to leave more space for the people behind.
At both ends of the street, people gradually peeked out to watch. However, they did not dare to come out and only peeked through the cracks in the door or windows.
Gradually, night fell.
Xu Da looked at the sky and became even more anxious.
Although he had already moved more than 100,000 boxes so far, Xu Da was still not satisfied. He wanted more, the more the better.
It was like an ordinary person seeing a mountain of gold. Even if one dug up enough gold to live ten lifetimes without worrying about food and drink, they were still not satisfied and wanted to continue digging. Xu Da had this mentality now.
"There are still six hours before dawn. Speed up, don't stop. All camps take turns to move. Pay attention to order and clear the corridors.”
Xu Da gave orders to the soldiers of the various battalions as he moved the materials.
Up until now, he didn't even know how many boxes he had moved.
The others could rest. Even Lan Yu and Geng Bingwen were so tired that they were carried down to rest. Then, other generals continued to move.
However, Xu Da did not rest for the entire day. He continued to move the crates without stopping, feeling refreshed all the time.
His body was covered in sweat and bloodstains, but he had persisted for an entire day. In terms of the number of people he could move individually, even those Hercules were inferior to Xu Da.
All the soldiers were completely shocked by Xu Da's performance.
Was the Duke of Wei an iron man?
Despite his age, his stamina and endurance made all the generals and soldiers present feel inferior.
In reality, not only were the generals and soldiers shocked, Xu Da himself was also extremely shocked. However, what followed was boundless ecstasy.
The effect of canned food!
That's right. He had eaten a can of food in the imperial court during the day, which was why his stamina could last so long.
It was too powerful!
The effect of the canned food shocked Xu Da from the bottom of his heart.
Although he was also very tired, Xu Da could feel that he had not reached his limit yet. He could still continue to move with all his might.
In fact, while Xu Da was moving the crates, he could also free up his energy to command the soldiers and maintain order, increasing the efficiency of moving the crates by several folds.
In fact, Xu Da also wanted the soldiers to eat these cans and quickly recover their strength.
However, there was a huge risk in doing so.
These cans were controlled materials and had to be strictly controlled. The soldiers could not take them as they pleased. Otherwise, who knew if they would fill their own pockets and leak these cans out?
Xu Da had this in mind, so he had never allowed the soldiers to open the cans and eat them to recover their strength.
If these were to leak out and be obtained by hostile forces, it would be disastrous for Great Ming.
Xu Da quickly realized this.
He finally understood why Zhu Yuanzhang told him that canned food could only be used as a controlled substance and was not allowed to flow into the people.
He also understood why the state preceptor only asked them to move to midnight.
His Majesty and the Imperial Preceptor are really far-sighted…Xu Da thought to himself as he continued to move the boxes. At the same time, he did not forget to count the number of boxes.
Outside the Stargazing Tower, torches lit up, illuminating the entire street. The onlookers gradually walked out of their homes and looked at the strange scene in confusion.
What was going on?
Where did those boxes come from?
Why wasn't he done moving after an entire day?
The commoners were numb.
The soldiers were stunned.
"My dear mother, did you poke a box?”Some of the commoners had strange expressions on their faces. They really could not understand what was going on.
On the other side, Xu Da had just finished moving five large boxes. He hurriedly walked in front of the comptroller and quickly asked,
"How many boxes?"
The comptroller's forehead was covered in sweat. He answered while counting,"
"General, it's already 500,000 boxes.”
" 500,000 yuan…" Xu Da was stunned. He looked up at the sky. There was still time…to continue moving.
"Hurry up, speed up!" Xu Da roared.
The soldiers gritted their teeth and moved the materials frantically. Some of them were so tired that their legs went weak, but they still gritted their teeth and held on, not letting themselves fall.
……
Just like that, time passed.
Lu Ya opened his eyes in a daze. Just now, he was looking around and accidentally dozed off. He looked up at the sky and blinked."There are still ten minutes."
Lu Ya looked at the system panel again.
A set of numbers was displayed.
**！
This was the number of cans replicated by the system. There were a total of 16 million cans, and the number was still increasing.
Lu Ya was not in a hurry and waited slowly.
At the same time, Xu Da was moving while observing the sky. It was almost time.
One more box…one more box.
Xu Da muttered in his heart and quickly rushed to the Stargazing Tower.
However, when he arrived, he was stunned. The cans on the floor…were gone!
The soldiers at the back looked at each other. Lan Yu and Geng Bingwen also rushed over to help move the boxes, but they also realized that there was not a single box left.
"Time's up!" Xu Da sighed.”
He really couldn't accept it. He wanted to move a few more boxes.
