Chapter 172 The War Begins with Food (Part 1)_1
The Flore Logistics Support Center sprawled with its undulating encampment; the outermost tents housed fifty thousand regular troops in charge of various defensive constructions. The central tents served as residences for logistics soldiers, whose job was to unify the allocation of supplies—sorting materials brought from the rear before sending them off in batches to the front lines where they were needed. The innermost and largest tents, occupying two-thirds of the entire camp, were where all sorts of materials were stored. To guard against possible fire attacks from the Milan Empire, the people of Flore had even gone to the lengths of digging a five-meter-wide City Moat around the perimeter of the logistics center, channeling running water from the nearby Nile River. Not only did it provide drinking water for the soldiers, but it also ensured that any fire attacks launched from the surroundings would be rendered ineffectual.
