She secretly blamed herself, thinking that if only she could find more food, she wouldn't have to watch everyone go hungry and have to push and shove each other for a piece of moong bread.

At this moment, Nan Qiao's eyes inadvertently swept across the bamboo basket not far away.

There were a few sweet potatoes lying quietly in the bamboo basket, and one of them had already sprouted.

Her eyes suddenly lit up, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, and suddenly an idea came to her.

She quickly turned to look at Wang Qi, her face showing a bit of anxiety and a hint of excitement as she said, "Wang Qi, I suddenly remembered that I have something to deal with quickly. You go ahead and do your work."

After saying this, without waiting for Wang Qi's response, he hurried towards the bamboo basket.

Coming to the bamboo basket, she carefully picked up the sprouted sweet potato, held it tightly in her hand as if it were a rare treasure, and then hurried away.

Nan Qiao held the sprouting sweet potato, hunched over, and watched the movements around him vigilantly, carefully avoiding team after team of patrolling soldiers.

She walked lightly and quickly, afraid of making any noise and attracting other people's attention.

After much difficulty, we arrived at a dense forest where the trees were tall and their branches and leaves were intertwined, forming a natural hiding place.

Nan Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, quickly found a relatively flat ground, and gently placed the sprouted sweet potato in his arms on the ground.

She calmed herself down, quickly formed seals with her hands, muttered something, and performed the Fengchun Technique.

I saw that the sweet potato, which had only sprouted a little, suddenly seemed to receive magical nourishment. The sprouts suddenly jumped out at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the tender green branches and leaves continued to stretch and spread.

In the blink of an eye, the sweet potato vines spread rapidly around like a green wave, and soon covered a large area of ​​land in front of him.

Moreover, the growth momentum of the sweet potato vine did not slow down at all, and it continued to grow vigorously. Soon, the sweet potatoes gradually matured under the vine, and plump and round sweet potatoes grew in the ground.

Although you can't see the specific appearance of the sweet potato, the sight of the sweet potato vines is particularly pleasing.

Nan Qiao endured the pain caused by the raging electric current in his body, clenched his teeth, and beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down his forehead.

But she thought of the soldiers having more food, so she encouraged herself secretly: It's okay, I can bear this little pain.

After a short rest, Nan Qiao hurried back to the camp.

As soon as she entered the camp, she ignored her physical fatigue and ran straight to where the head of the logistics department was.

After seeing the minister, she couldn't hide her excitement and said, "Minister, I found a large field of sweet potatoes in the woods!"

When the minister heard this, his eyes widened in disbelief. He frowned and said, "How is this possible? We've already dug up almost all the edible wild vegetables around here. How could there still be a large patch of sweet potato vines?"

But looking at Nan Qiao's determined expression, the minister decided to go and check it out immediately.

So, the minister brought a few logistics staff and followed Nan Qiao all the way to the woods.

When the minister saw the lush and spreading sweet potato vines, he was also stunned, and his eyes were instantly filled with surprise.

Without saying a word, he immediately turned back to the camp, organized all the logistics personnel, and summoned some idle soldiers.

Everyone took their farm tools and ran happily towards the sweet potato field, ready to work hard and dig up the sweet potatoes that would fill everyone's stomachs.

At night, the moonlight sprinkled on the camp like water, and Wang Qi's stomach made protesting rumblings from time to time.

He was so hungry that he had to get up in the middle of the night to keep watch anyway, so he decided to take a short nap on an empty stomach to save his strength.

Just as he was about to fall asleep, the tempting aroma of sweet potatoes slowly drifted into his nostrils.

The fragrance seemed to have magical power, instantly dispelling his sleepiness. He suddenly opened his eyes, thinking that he was hallucinating, and sniffed hard.

He saw the logistics director and Nan Qiao carrying a large bucket of roasted sweet potatoes, walking over with smiles on their faces, ready to distribute to the soldiers.

Wang Qi was surprised and delighted. His eyes widened in astonishment and he couldn't help asking, "Where did all these sweet potatoes come from?"

But before he could finish his question, his feet had already involuntarily walked towards the distribution team and hurried forward to line up.

At this time, Nan Qiao hurried back to the kitchen. After a while, he and other logistics team members brought out several large pots of stir-fried sweet potato vines.

With a smile on her face, she walked towards the soldiers with light steps.

The sweet potato vines were fried until they were shiny green, with a faint luster and a unique fragrance.

Nan Qiao shouted as she walked, "Don't worry, there are still dishes stir-fried with sweet potato vines, they are so delicious!"

The soldiers' attention was instantly attracted, and their eyes were full of surprise and expectation.

Nan Qiao carefully placed a pot of food on the table. The soldiers gathered around and looked at the fresh dishes. They couldn't help swallowing their saliva. The fatigue on their faces seemed to be dispelled a lot by the upcoming meal.

When Wang Qipai came over, he looked at the roasted sweet potatoes and stir-fried sweet potato vines and swallowed his breath.

As soon as he took the roasted sweet potatoes and the stir-fried sweet potato vines, he began to eat them voraciously.

The sweet roasted sweet potatoes, paired with the refreshing sweet potato vine stir-fry, are so delicious.

The soldiers had a full meal and their faces were filled with satisfied smiles. The camp, which had been a little dull due to hunger, was now filled with laughter.

The soldiers ate until their bellies were full and their faces were filled with satisfied smiles. The feeling of fullness that they had not felt for a long time made everyone feel relaxed and comfortable.

At this time, everyone stood up and gathered around Nan Qiao.

An older soldier spoke first, his voice full of gratitude: "Your name is Qiaoqiao? Why haven't I seen you before?"

The logistics director explained, "She's new, you haven't seen her normal."

The soldier nodded and said, "Thank you so much! I haven't eaten this full in ages. My stomach feels so full and comfortable. It's all thanks to you for finding that big patch of sweet potatoes."

The other soldiers also echoed, "Yes, yes, we can only eat one flatbread every day recently. Today we can finally eat as much as we want. It's all thanks to you!"

"Qiao Qiao, you have made a great contribution. If you need any help in the future, just tell us and we will definitely not hesitate!" A young soldier patted his chest and promised.

Nan Qiao felt warm at heart as she listened to everyone's sincere thanks. She smiled and replied, "You're welcome, everyone. I'm happy to have enough food for everyone!"

It was late at night and the camp was quiet. The well-fed soldiers fell into a deep sleep contentedly.

Wang Qi and several of his comrades were on duty to keep watch. It was pitch black all around, with only a few faint stars shining through.

Wang Qiqiang tried to stay alert, but his eyes still felt a little sleepy. However, he still stared at the direction of the bird army's retreat, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
